Teairra Mari and guests at the Jean Addicts Pre-BET Launch she hosted in Malibu on Sunday. I’m pretty sure all you remember Ms. Teairra from her days with Roc-A-Fella. As a matter of fact, she came out around the same time as Rihanna. She released a new single earlier this year and is supposed to release a new album via Interscope Records.

Sen. Barack Obama is transitioning into general-election mode, buying air time in 18 states, launching a website to combat misinformation and creating a new ad mentioning the “country I love”.

Obama ‘has moved aggressively to shape his campaign and offered a clear road map for the kind of candidate he is likely to become in the months ahead: an ambitious gamer of the electoral map, a ruthless fundraiser and a scrupulous manager of his own biography in the face of persistent concerns about how he is perceived. Obama’s early maneuvers suggest a clear understanding within the campaign of his strengths and weaknesses.’”

Over the weekend, I attended Solange’s show here in Atlanta with a couple of friends, including Dorion from BET’s College Hill: Atlanta. The show was amazing - Solange is really proving herself this time around. Not only did she look absolutely amazing, but she performed with a broken toe, and sounded wonderful. She had a stage presence that was really captivating. Her set was fresh, and she was just a pleasure to watch.
I also would just like to wish Solange a happy 22nd birthday tomorrow! Her party is today in LA!
