Ne-Yo is finally fighting back for getting kicked off R. Kelly’s Double Up Tour for no reason:
Rapper Ne-Yo sued the promoter of R. Kelly tours for firing him after two shows as the opening act for Kelly because the audience and the critics liked him better, court papers obtained on Wednesday show.
Ne-Yo, whose real name is Shaffer Smith, and Compound Touring Inc. filed the suit Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court against Georgia-based Rowe Entertainment Inc., alleging breach of contract and violation of the right of publicity.
Compound Touring and Smith are seeking unspecified damages, but the suit maintains he was to be paid $785,000 for 25 shows opening for Kelly’s “Double-Up Tour” that began Nov. 14 and is still owed $735,000. READ MORE
Looks like this tour is the pits and Ne-Yo should get his money. R. Kelly recently had to cancel a tour date in Virginia scheduled this month for a court date concerning those child pornography charges.

Every now and then we get emails from some of our visitors featuring “non commissioned” videos (meaning the actual artists didn’t have anything to do with the production) and if we like them we post them.
So check out this Kamal Robinson & Jameel Saleem directed video for Kanye West & John Mayer’s “Bittersweet”. The video was done with no budget and I think it came out pretty dope. “Bittersweet” is a bonus track on the deluxe edition of Kanye’s GRADUATION.

Kim & Reggie at Mansion (Wireimage)
Here we go. Starting off the rumor run is 2008 is Kim and Reggie with sources telling O.K magazine that the pair is now engaged:
The pair were together in Miami on Dec. 31, where Kim hosted Mansion’s Tanqueray and Ciroc New Year’s Bash in South Beach alongside Reggie. While no diamonds were shining on Kim’s ring finger, she did admit to OK! that things are getting serious. However, she added, “One thing I did learn from ‘07 was to try to keep it as private as possible so I’m trying to hold that close to my heart but I’m here with everybody that I love.”
…And should Kim and Reggie make that stroll down the aisle, he should know he’s got some good home-cooking waiting for him. “I’m the best cook!” Kim tells OK!. “People don’t know that, but I cook all the time. My best dish is surprisingly my soul food meals.
Even if she can cook - I doubt this is true, besides the fact that Kim’s rep telling the publication it very well isn’t. Besides, how many women would be mad if it was?

Yeah I know, it’s already ‘08, but Soveryfresh.com just released the “07 Rap Up” video from rapper Skillz. He has been putting out these rap up’s every year since 2002 and they are always entertaining. I only wished he released that ish when we were working on all those ‘End of The Year’ lists.
