THE ROUND UP: NEW YORK GETS RUDE / KEYSHIA ON THE RADIO / WILL SMITH & ‘KARATE KID” / EVE’S ALBUM PUSHED BACK

New York showed why she was the H.B.I.C over the weekend. TMZ cameras caught footage of the reality star was eventually cussed them out after cussing her driver out. The rabbit even carried one of her fans that was trying to say hi to her as she was leaving. She’s great entertainment on and off screen…

Keyshia Cole did an interview last week promoting her album Just Like You in Baltimore on 92Q and came off very cold – much like she did last year on the Doug Banks Show if anyone remembers. For example, when asked how the album is doing? – “It’s aight, ya know…go out and get it”. How is this album different then the last? – “I think I’ve grown alot but, you know…what, that’s not enough for you?

Radio jock Marc Clark kept it real with her towards the end and Keyshia apologized, then clarified why she came off the way she did. No matter what you go through though, professionalism is always a must! LISTEN TO THE INTERVIEW HERE…I’m still anticipating the results of her album sales.

“Karate Kid” is coming back and this time, Will Smith will be directing the 1984 remake:

The Pursuit of Happyness star, 39, is reportedly working on a modern-day version of the martial arts movie, with his nine-year-old son Jaden taking on the lead role of Daniel, originally made famous by Ralph Macchio.

Smith Jr. will star alongside Rush Hour’s Jackie Chan, who will play the boy’s mentor, Mr. Miyagi, according to reports. (Starpulse)

I look forward to this, as well as seeing his cute son acting again…

What’s up with these artists and these album pushbacks?! Eve has pushed back her November release of “Here I Am”, her first album since 2002′s “Eve-olution”:

Originally due in August and then bumped to Oct. 16, rapper Eve’s new Geffen album, “Here I Am,” has now been pushed back until 2008. A spokesperson had no comment on the reason for the delay.

The first single from the project, “Tambourine,” had modest success on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, peaking at No. 17. A new track, “Give It to Me” featuring Sean Paul, has yet to chart, although it has been at radio for several weeks. (Billboard)

So fans may not get that album until November of 08. Maybe people want the Ruff Ryders Eve back…

  4. Ms'z_Rae Rae

    i was gna write bwt will den membered his lool
    jaden so cyoooooooooooot*

  5. meme

    Keyshia is just rude and not humble at all, i don’t see any growth in her at all..and thats the reason why i can’t support her.

  6. Ms'z_Rae Rae

    membered his son*
    i need to catch up sleep mayyyyyyyyyyn

  7. LuP

    Will and his son are lovely…KeyCole looks a bit stoned. I love Eve to death will wait till 2009 for her album if I have to!

  8. I can imagine how New York gets when she is drunk. I bet you its way easier (than usual) to get the panties off.

  9. whyaskwhy

    The reason artist keep pushing their albums back is b/c they are lacking substance. There is JUST ABOUT no one in the game left to inspire to be. ….b/c most of the music is wack. They know their music isn’t great but they say, “might as well put it out b/c at least it is better than so and so’s. There isn’t a high bar to reach. ie. solija boy so now everyone is going to get a record deal now! lol Don’t get me wrong. I like solija boy b/c it is for the kids only. He is just having fun and made money off of it. I bet he will surprise you all next year with a real lyrics b/c the adults keep hating on him.

  10. You are right Tianna, professionalism goes a long way in an artist’s career. Good that she apologised though.

    Wow, I remember Karate Kid as a kid. I wonder how it will turn out. It could be interesting. I thought the kid who played it was much older than Jaden though, but his acting skills on The Pursuit… were sterling, so he should pull it off.

    Damn Eve, just like Mya’s album.

  11. Bittersweets

    Why does the media seek out these images as repesentative of the black community – don’t we deserve better, lord help me.(talking bout new york)

  12. Dame

    Whats up w/ Keyshia? Media is ur friend she can’t be rude like that to radio. Eve those single were WACK she put out.

  13. I don’t think Keyshia knows how to articulate herself when it comes to opening up to people. She seems really guarded and doesn’t understand why she should be exposing her innermost thoughts to strangers.

    Jaden would be cool, but Jackie Chan? They can’t find a Japanese actor?

    Blah, blah, blah Eve. It has nothing to do with street cred and everything to do with Fergie, Nelly Furtado and Gwen Stefani scooting in and doing to pop-hip-hop thing Eve is trying to do with this latest album. Why buy Eve’s album when they can get three non-black women doing it? Y’all know how it goes.

  14. NEW YORK IS CRAZY, AND I DON’T THINK KEYSHIA WAS RUDE ON PURPOSE, SOMETIMES IT’S NOT WHAT A PERSON SAYS, BUT HOW THEY SAY IT AND THEIR TONE, SOME PPL SAY I AM SHORT, BUT I DON’T MEAN 2 BE, SOME PPL JUST GET EASILY OFFENDED I DON’T SMILE UNLESS I MEAN IT..

  15. paul

    can somebody plase tell me why new york is famous?

  16. Glam84

    Eve is wack.. Im sorry.. why is she popular?? Ooops shes not.. lol.
    Keyshia’s album is good!
    And umm New York is a hot flaming mess. lmao @ her

  17. Ali

    Fuckin awesome :] , I’m seriously huge Jackie Chan n Will Smith fan, I dunno how the chemistry will be between them but I’m sure it’ll be as good as Chris Tucker, I’m really lookin forward to it.. Jackie Chan seriously does action scenes/stunts way better then anyone I’ve seen in a while, I dunno bout yall but he keeps me entertained at the end of the day :P Oh and plus i bet they it’ll be a comedy/action movie :]

  18. Jigga

    MAYNE NEW YORK IS THE SHHHHH…..SHE ALWAYS GIVES GOOD ENTERTAINMEN YOU CANT DENY THAT WHY DO YOU THINK THE SHOWS SHE WAS ON HAD SUCH HIGH RATINGS…HMMM…RIIGHT..KEEP DOIN YA THING MAMA….KEYSHIA…-SMH…YOU SEEN HOW SNOBBY SHE WAS ON HER SHOW….EVEN WHEN SHE BE ON 106 THE CHIC BE THINKIN SHE OWN SH*T..SIIITTTTT DOOOOWWWNNN…WILL SMITH ALWAYS DOIN HIS THING!

  19. Hip Hop is my baby mama

    Eve’s Pushback – Nowadays, this seems to happen to most artists in the hip hop genre.. This shouldn’t be a shocker

    Keyshia’s un-professionalism – She needs to go through extensive interview training and have her publicist right there in case she F’s up. Or shoot, bring in Lil’ Kim/Missy so she wouldn’t have to carry the entire interview.

    Will & Son – Karate Kid with Jackie Chan…I’m sure that will be very good.

    New York – All she had to do was..” I got a show coming out in (fill in the blank), and check out (fill in other projects here)… Well, I would love to chat more but I got to run.” Then give a big smile and kiss to the camera. Then tell the driver, get the F out of there… I have a feelin that her reign as the so called H.B.I.C. will end shortly.

    Dayum I need to go into the PR business…..

  20. Nickey

    Thank you for posting that about Keyshia Tianna! I thought I was the only one that noticed that. I saw her interview with Miss Jones. She was reading a magazine while they were talking to her. Her people really need to work with her before nobody wants to interview her anymore.

  21. Da Pplz Champ

    I’d like to believe that Keyshia Cole is an original but she seems to be reading Mary’s old interviews & comes off as a carbon copy, I know people go through things but if she was having a bad day maybe she could’ve postponed her appearance! Learn from MJB’s mistakes…don’t copy them.

    BTW….really why do people support New York we need to boycott all this coonin’ cause VH1 will give anyone a show make these no talents get a real job., Damn Ladies…ya’ll don’t feel she and the rest of them make it bad for yall?

  22. ORPHAN ANNIE

    THIS IS KEYSHIAS SECOND ALBUM, SHE SHOULD KNOW HOW IT GOES BY NOW…….SHE KEEP PLAYIN SHE’LL BE A NOBODY BY SUMMER 08

    THE KARATE KID THING IS A GOOD IDEA

  23. ORPHAN ANNIE

    THIS IS KEYSHIAS SECOND ALBUM, SHE SHOULD KNOW HOW IT GOES BY NOW…….SHE KEEP PLAYIN SHE’LL BE A NOBODY BY SUMMER 08

    THE KARATE KID THING IS A GOOD IDEA

    EVE, ASHANTI,MYA AND COUNTLESS OTHERS…….ITS OVER

  24. Keyshia cole is just bein KEYSHIA COLE…dont ask from much from a person you dont know. I personally dont care for her music but that first single she dropped with KANYE was hott..and then that was it…And I also think that the reason sooooo many artist albums are bein pushed back becuz they know the shh is garbage just like hella music that is out today…and to the person who SAID solja boy music is for kids…is crazy…I recently heard a lil 3yr.old boy snappin his fingaz and singin “Super soak that ho”…now tell me how does that sound like music for kids…what 3yr.old needs to be singin along to shh like dat? Now for Lil’Mama I would say her music is for kids, Sean Kingston is okie doke as well..but solja boy…NO…

    I personally believe the Media is tryin to make fun of black ppl..which is why it is so easy for anyone(especially BLACK)to come out with a cartoon record that completely makes NO SENSE has no subtsance no logic no basis no NOTHING..just a beat to shake ya azz to which is what the media thinks all black ppl care to do which IS WHYYYYY you dont hear too many BLK artist out nowadayz makin music with a positive message…they shh isnt encouraged bcuz they dont wanna display blacks in a positive way…and im sick of my ppl supportin that garbage that is bein fed to our younger generation….back then black music was idolize by many because we where creative and each had they own sound, back then black music was about love, care and black POWER….now its about, hate, hoz and money…its crazy how ICE cube put out a record sayin “if you scared go to church” WDF does that mean…if you love God you aint gangsta? Music has changed for the complete worse..and its only growin & risin becuzz no one is takin a stand against it…..REAL ARTIST PLZ STAND UP…

    Ms New York…once again I truly do not understand why she is famous…..I honestly believe she is all front. And if thats the front she wanna live by then rock on…im not God so I have nothin esle to say about her.

    EVE has completely gone pop stank…yes her music is pop which is not hot for a soo called hardcore female rapper…and far as stank…oh thats regardin her music…

    PLZ CHECK OUT MY GIRL TEEDRA MOSES AND ERIC ROBERSON….
    these two are the definition of pure soul free music….not to this not that…its just the right sound….for any occasion

  25. New York is famous cause some people actually have time to waste and watch her stupid ass…

    Wow…updated Karate Kid…well, if they can do it to Batman and Superman…why not?

    Eve…not a fan…not missing her…

  26. Rita

    Keyshia Cole is a bitch. I am glad I didn’t buy her album yet, don’t plan on it. It will be downloaded this afternoon.

  27. Mo-Ree

    Keykey has talent…but lacks personality, she seems to not be willing to learn from the Mistakes Mary made early on in her career. I don’t think she is talented enough to carry herself over that bad attitude.

    In this day and age where anybody with a computer can download your whole album + ish you ain’t even released yet you have to bring fire…that’s why Eve’s album is pushed back….she brought a simmer with those last two songs….

  28. reecy

    Keyshia was doing so well, she was cool when she was on Tom Joynor and 106 &Park, but you could tell it was straining her to nice (LOL). Check yourself Keyshia before you wreck yourself…

  29. Buckdog

    CALL NEW YORK SUPAHEAD B/C LOOK AT HER MOUTH WOW!!!!!!!!!

  30. Indygirl

    Keyshia’s 2nd album isn’t great. I copped it Sunday and everytime I try to get into a song……..blah…its just blah.

  31. MsShe

    I agree with #15. I too have been told that I am rude or unapproachable because of the vibe I give off. I do not set out to be rude, but I guess honesty and short direct answers are not what ppl want. Keyshia could have been not feeling the situation and just came off like a b***h. I have had those days too. When it comes to your career, put on a happy face…professionalism takes you many places.

    I love the album… Gotta Get My Heart Back is my joint!

    Eve…. snore!!!! loudly!!!!

    Why do we even consider NY,she is a nobody! Grow up, that fascade f angy black woman with a dash of hoe is not cute at all.

  32. New York is such a character lol
    Keylolo gets on my nerves that fake ass MJB, she gets no love from me. I listened to that interview and she did not wanna do it. Somebody better tell her ass about promotion.
    I was wondering about Eve’s album and when it was coming out.

  33. New Yak is a MESS. But I LOVE that chick. Entertaining as hell & everything I strive NOT to be in a woman.

    Keyshia, c’mon now…let’s practice some couth. You can take the girl out the ghetto….but not the ghetto out of the girl.

    I don’t think I’ll be interested in seeing a Karate Kid remake. The original is a classic…you can’t top a classic.

    NOVEMBER 08!?! Can’t be right. If so, it BETTER have a whole new string of material.

  34. Tiffany

    I am mad at Eve’s album being pushed back! That’s because music sucks and nobody seems to want to buy anything good anymore.
    Keyshia Cole is pulling the 90′s Mary J. Blige! Will Smith always does it big!

  35. VirgoDoll

    K. Cole has a stank tude…I can’t stand her, in a few years she’ll b lucky if her career hasn’t turned out like Ashanti’s boo can’t get a hit to save her life.

  36. I really was starting to like Key til I saw that interview – what a nasty tude.

    NY needs to sit her tranny ass down..it’s more pathetic than funny now.

    Jaden is so adorable!

  37. Andrice

    Keshia Cole has a lot to learn. She is ghetto lets just keep it real. Hopefully she will grow and mature personally and professionally before her remaining few minutes are up. I am just really concerned that she still wasn’t able to just pull it together and be profesional; all of that i didn’t know this and that about this stop is irrelevant. once she got to the radio station she should have let that all go…..has she forgotten? she could be back in the ghetto with no options and NO JOB, Kinda like alot of those who are supporting her. hell in life who doesn’t have to “make it do what it do” regardless of the circumstance? GEESH kesh get over yourself

  38. Aww at Will Smith and his son…good for them:-).

    One phrase comes to mind when I think of NY: “Bytch is crazy!!!”….thats the only way to describe her.

    As for Keyshia Cole…lets just put it like this, she learned a very valuable lesson. I know some people can be a lil short with others, however, there is no room for that in the entertainment industry.

    Not surprised about Eve’s album getting pushed back…

  39. whateva678

    @New York – Booooo

    @Keyshia – It was clear she DID NOT want to do the interview, she should’ve just canceled. There are plenty of entertainers with more hectic schedules than hers and they still know how to show professionalism. There is a difference between sucking that shyt up and doing a job were you have to socialize vs your everyday socializing/meeting and greeting with folks when you don’t have to.

    I am sometimey as hell there are some days when I wont even answer my phone because I don’t want to be bothered. That is also why I have a job that I don’t have to deal with socializing with a lot of people in order to make more money.

    @Will and Jaden – I wish them luck, I loved the original Karate Kid though.

  40. shida

    i just listened to the interview and i have to say that i think she really has some work to do!! Going to radio stations and tv shows and things like that are all things that are supposed to be helpinng her get to the point that she wants to be at!! She keeps saying that she has goals that she wants to reach but she keeps doing the same old things!! I hope she pays attention to all the backlash…

  41. Glam

    New York, whateva!

    Keyshia, get over yourself!

    Will and Jaden, can’t wait for the movie!

  42. TAISH4U

    Keyshia Cole acts like if people has to kiss her ass, I like her music but she really
    needs to chill out before she can’t get a hit no matter who is on her track.That is why I brought a boot leg copy of the album.

    New York = Slut, Bird, Jumpoff and any other derogatory term.

    Eve did not like her first single so don’t care if her album was to never drop.

  43. It's Me Snitches

    Keyshia might have been short with her answers but she wasn’t rude. Who know’s what was going on before that interview. Let’s rememeber it was only two years ago when her first album dropped. She has made some big changes. She is way more personable now than she was when she first came out. A person can’t change the way they have been all of thier life, overnight. She’s a work in progress. The old Keyshia wouldn’t have even came back to apologize and set the record striaght. At least she did that. Remember she’s a hood girl that has been through alot, now she’s in this entertainment world where she’s expected to be classy and professional all the time. She probably didn’t even know what professional was before…LOL.. Give her time and she will get there.

  44. DINAJONES

    Eve needs to change her image or something…shes so boring now..and im so tired of her… i loved her though when she first came out she was hard and kept it real none of the fake shit,,,

    for real

  45. MoFinest

    Keyshia Cole I think need to get professional help. I think she have attitudes with people because of her past. And she thinks everybody is out to hurt her. Everybody has gone through things in life. That’s what makes you stronger. Get over it and move on. I took my money and got her cd. Tryin to help her and she with them attitudes. Baby girl you better change your ways because if you don’t your ass goin to be back in Oakland singing with MC Hammer.

  46. JoRo

    Keyshia needs to stop being such a hoodrat now. I understand if she’s tired, but being polite should come naturally. Hasn’t she had any media training?

  47. jscene

    I like New York..it’s so freakin obvious she’s fake and she’s being entertaining cause she don’t even take herself seriously, she’s smiling and laughing all the while she’s cursing someone out…she can’t even keep a straight face….she’s a bad actress, but she puts on a good entertaining show…so it’s now real, no one shouldn’t take it personally or care much about what comes out of her mouth….she’s just playing it up for the cameras as usual….

    Keyshia cole is starting to get on my nerves…she’s a ghetto idiot, and no matter what, some people you cannot raise from the gutter…she has a gutter brain and she lacks appreciation…she can kick rocks all the way back to whichever ghetto she came out of with that fucked up attitude….

    Congrats to Jaden…..He’s going to kick ass with the karate kid role. I’m sorry the original Mr. Miyagi won’t be able to see this remake cause he died last year.

  48. LL COOL G

    damn keyshia. cancel the interview if u ain’t in the mood…………b/c i’m turned off from buying it. shyt, i’m not even gonna download it.

  49. yes

    new york = whack ho

    smith fam= takin over

    key= no comment

    eve= not surprised and 100 % agreed i bump ruff ryders n eve first album heavy .. even the 2nd was alright but her sales since then declined n her last album will guarantee flop whether its in 07 or 08 or 2014

  50. I won’t be supporting her now.
    Stank attitude gets you NOWHERE! :(

  51. Uhhhh… I real like Will and his cute kid…but wasnt Daniel like in highschool in the movie? I am interested in seeing how this pans out.

    NewYory NewYork…thumbs down!

    Eve…She is cute in pictures.

    Keyshia needs some etiquette classes. Personally I think she is taking the Mary J. Similarities a bit too far. Nobody does Mary like Mary does Mary.

  52. Carolinahoney

    New York is a straight up ghetto bird, so her behavior is normal if you realize that!

    Keyshia honey everbody have a bad day, drop the attitude…glad I downloaded your album, how you gonna keep pulling in your fan base with attitude like that??

    Eve…she Hollywood now. I like her better when she was with the Ruff Ryders…

  53. dee

    THANK YOU FOR POSTING THE KEISHA COLE STORY……..

    I’M HAPPY TO SEE I’M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS KEISHA’S A JOKE!

    I HATE TO BE NEGATIVE BUT….I HOPE HER ALBUM FLOPS!

  54. keyshia need to chill she don’t want to put bad blood between her and radio stations!

  55. dctrinigyal

    KEYSHIA WELL ALWAYS BE GHETTO AND RUDE. SHE CANT DRESS, CANT TALK, SHE CANT DO NOTHING RIGHT. THE MAN ASK HER SIMPLE QUESTIONS ABOUT HER ALBUM AND ALL SHE CAN SAY IS I LOVE THEM ALL TWO TIMES . YEP, HER CAREER IS ABOUT TO BE OVER SOONER THEN SHE THINKS.

    JADEN WILL DO JUST FIND WITH THIS KARATE KID MOVIE. RIP MR MIYAGI…I REMEMBER WHEN THEY SAID HE DIED IN THE LATER PART OF 2005.

    EVE ALBUM WILL NOT SELL ,IF IT COMES OUT LATE NEXT YEAR.

  56. MEANWHILE NEW YORK’S WEAVE IS FABULOUS!!

    THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I DONT LIKE KEYSHIA COLE, SHE IS THE MOST IGNORANT BITCH EVER, SORRY TO CALL HER OUT BUT IT IS WHAT IT IS AND I DONT SEE HER ASS CHANGING…

  57. Joseph Bradley

    WHen Keshia Cole first emerged as a new artist, I wasn’t really that impressed with her and even called her a “ghetto mess”. But then she released singles like “Love” and “I Shoulda cheated” and I thought let me give this girl a chance. I even saw her live in Philly at the Kanye concert and she does alright. But she was never really lady like. She seemingly always tried to be the “homegirl who made it big and was keeping it real”. But almost to real. Then I really hated her when she hosted 106 & Park. It was like she was trying to thug it up. But when I heard this interview on my way to work last week, I didn’t know who it was at first. I thought it was some local celeb from like… the wire or something. Definitely not a mainstream celeb. Once I realized who it was I was taken back to that original ghetto girl that I once didn’t care for and this is where she will always be in my heart!

  58. AnalogueGirl

    Keyshia needs to get a PR – - its all about professionalism…if you’re a fan and hear her interview and uninterest and attitude HELL it doesn’t make you look at her in a positive light. She’s doing what she loves and not in the hood anymore or running around with no where to stay – - she needs to be happy – because there are plenty of people striving to get in her position and probably will never get there – but if they were there they’d be humble, excited – - grateful and smile even when times are rough…that’s the game of life – regardless of what you’re doing if you love it or not – there’s going to be BS that comes with it. …live with it and keep thriving and be positive…GOODNESS!
