Janet Jackson - Let Me Know (full) - listen
With the release of Janet’s Discipline only a couple of days away, already, material that wasn’t on the album. “Let Me Know” is one of those mid-tempo records that was written by Ne-Yo. I think the song is okay, but it’s sort of boring. It is apparent why they left the track off the album. I’m sure that “Let Me Know” will appear as some sort of iTunes bonus, or on an international release or special packaging that will be exclusively sold at some retailer.
Usher - I Can’t Win (full) - listen / Movin’ Mountains (full) - listen
Two new Usher songs have surfaced, and like the bulk of songs that had leaked, I’m not really digging either one of these.

Ne-Yo’s mug shot (click for bigger version) | TMZ
Ne-Yo is the latest star to get arrested this week.
The R&B singer also known as Shaffer Smith, was busted on Feb. 19th while driving through Cobb County, Georgia. Police pulled Ne-Yo over after they observed him driving over 100 mph in his 2006 Range Rover. He was arrested for reckless driving and for not having a valid license.
I guess it isn’t too major since he wasn’t drunk or got caught with drugs in his car. People online are having more fun with his mugshot picture than the story anyway…

Sen. Hillary Clinton is apparently bad with money, borrows words from her husband and John Edwards and has an unrefined palate.
She also needs to win the upcoming Democratic primaries to keep her campaign alive next month. When voters in Ohio, Rhode Island, Texas and Vermont cast their votes on March 4, she will have the opportunity to gain 444 delegates.
