Above is the teaser poster for the new Disney cartoon, THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG. This movie marks the debut of the first African American Princess (Princess Tiana). The movie is due out around Christmas time.
Set in one of the greatest musical cities of them all, New Orleans, the film teams Ron Clements and John Musker, creators of The Little Mermaid and Aladdin, with Oscar winning composer, Randy Newman. Voice talent includes Anika Noni Rose, Keith David, Jenifer Lewis, John Goodman, Jim Cummings, Terrence Howard and Oprah Winfrey.
I remember growing up watching Disney movies and always wishing they had a black princess. Finally! I used to be obsessed with the Little Mermaid and really wanted red hair. Long story..
For this edition of Who Rock’d It Better we have singers Monica and Beyonce wearing the same Helmut Lang tan coloured leather jacket.
Monica first wore the jacket at ATL’s Swagga Like Us concert last month and Beyonce wore hers last week while sight seeing in Germany. Take your pick…
Queen Latifah – Chainzzz (full) – listen
Check out this new track from Queen Latifah! I wasn’t expecting this from her, considering that her last two albums have been jazz albums. The new track, “Chainzzz” is taking a more pop direction, which I’m surprised by. I’m sure some fans were looking to hear Queen rapping again, but she’s still singing on “Chainzzz.” The track is the lead single from her forthcoming seventh studio album, Persona, due out July 7th. I’m interested to see what the rest of this material sounds like.
Jennifer Lopez – What Is Love (full) – listen
J.

In any event, I really liked the track when I heard the Wynter Gordon version, and Jennifer Lopez doesn’t sound half bad on the D’Mile-produced track either. Hopefully, this is the lead single from her Greatest Hits album.
