After several singles and delays, it seems as though the team is pulling it together for Kelly Rowland’s third solo album, which still doesn’t have a title yet.
Even though the album is still currently untitled, she has announced that she will be dropping a new single, “Motivation,” featuring Lil’ Wayne. There was a bit of confusion that Kelly had to clear up:
“In the middle of having dinner at the Bvlgari Hotel in Milan Kelly Rowland has personally confirmed to OMKelly.com, her official fansite, that her new album will not be entitled Motivation,” says the source. “The album title will be revealed on both her official website KellyRowland.com and OMKelly.com in the near future.”
The new track, produced by Jim Jonsin and written by Rico Love, is said to be a mix of dance, hip hop and R&B, will be available soon, still with no release date for the new album.
FOXY BROWN ANNOUNCES DOUBLE ALBUM?
Foxy Brown has announced that she will be dropping another album. It’s been since 2008 since Foxy released her last album, Brooklyn’s Don Diva, but she’s announced that we can expect an album in September of this year, called Black Roses.
And you’re prepping new music yourself, right?
The new album! Black Roses. I’m in the studio every night, slaving. It’s going to be the first double CD from any female rapper in history, so it’s going to be really big. One side is going to be straight hip-hop and hardcore records, and a couple big radio joints, and then the other side is dancehall rock… I personally want it to drop around August or September.

Seems like the rap girls are trying to get their game back up since Nicki Minaj has come on the scene. I guess fans are excited since Foxy’s Christmas Massacre mixtape.
NICKI MINAJ LINES UP A NEW SINGLE
Still riding off the success of her debut album, Pink Friday and her current single, “Moment 4 Life,” Nicki Minaj is prepping to release a new single from the album.
Nicki has chosen the Bangladesh-produced track “Did It On ‘Em” for the next single.
KID CUDI DROPS MANAGER, STARTS NEW LABEL
Kid Cudi, who recently released his sophomore album, Man On the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager, has announced a split from his manager, Patrick “Plain Pat” Reynolds, his partner and producer Emile Haynie, and his imprint, Dream On, which the three launched in 2009.
Rumors had circulated about the split when Cudi made tweets about “making changes” last Friday.
“New number, new email, starting fresh. Lettin’ go of all things holding me back,” Cudi began. “If you have my contacts, don’t hit them after today. If I haven’t hit you by now to tell you, good knowing you and I wish you well. Feels good to start over, opening a new chapter… focused on my empire, focused on love, focused on family. If you’re not in that equation, byeeeeeeee.”
This isn’t the first time that Cudi has made a dramatic exit. Back in 2009, he made a dramatic exit from his original Twitter account, but it seems as though he’s taken to his new account, @wizardcud to gush details about the dissolving of Dream On, as well as his new album.
“Dream On is over,” he tweeted. “New label announcement soon. Pat and Emile are doing their own thing, I wish them well. I have a diff vision, for music, for the world. I’m just doing the right thing, I come from a different place. People lose sight of the mission. Can’t expect everyone to be built like me. When people have different visions, you gotta go your own way.”
Kid Cudi also reveals that the new label, which has yet to be titled, will still hold ties with Kanye’s G.O.O.D. Music imprint, with whom he affiliated with to release his last album. Cudi concluded by promising that while the team may have changed up, the music would remain the same. “The jams will be the same but more real and true to me,” Cudi tweeted. He is currently hard at work on his new rock album Wizard.
nicki is irrelavant to me….sorry
but, yet, u took the time out to write about her when you couldve talked about Cudi or Foxy. Oh.
Haters are the biggest fans.
Kim is reading about Nicki too!!
DO NOT BUY THE MUSIC OF RAPPERS/SINGERS THAT DO NOT SUPPORT YOU. USE THE MONEY TO BUY THE MUSIC OF BLACK FEMALE ARTISTS LIKE MARSHA AMBROSIUS, JAZMINE SULLIVAN, LEDESI, ESPERANZA SPALDING ETC.
The people that control the media do not want black women seen on TV in a positive light, and the black male rappers/singers are a part of this plot. This is why you hardly ever see black women looking classy in videos in 2011.. when that used to be normal back in the 80′s. There is video footage of rappers/singers including CB, Fabolous, Trey S. saying that they have COMPLETE CONTROL over which women are picked to be in the videos and how they are presented. So they choose NOT to use black women, and on the rare occasion they use a TOKEN black female…. they make sure that she is on the sideline looking trashy and have the white,latina,brazilian females playing the LEADING LADY looking classy. All latinas, brazilians do NOT consider themselves black regardless of their ancestry. It’s not for diversity not for diversity because… why don’t they include latino,white, brazilian MEN???
BOYCOTT ALL PEPSI PRODUCTS LIKE AQUAFINA, MOUNTAIN DEW ETC. FOR THE RACIST SUPERBOWL PEPSI MAX COMMERCIAL. Look how they portrayed the dark black female as angry, jealous at a time you hardly see dark females in commercials.
THINK. Lauryn Hill just started doing some promo shows and blogs are already portraying her in a negative light. Why don’t they report how she thanked her fans, great performances etc. They don’t want dark, natural conscious female artists to win. If you think she acts crazy… then why do you support Kanye West, 50, lil wayne, etc when they act crazy?
CB was on twitter making jokes about dark skin ppl and dark skin girls. were saying he was only kidding. BE HONEST… if Rihanna or any light skin FEMALE artist made jokes on twitter about dark skin ppl for the world to see you would have bashed her for life. This is why black women do not get any respect from media,rappers etc. You NEVER hold black men accountable for anything. BOYCOTT CB, SLIM THUG,OCHO CINCO, FABOLOUS FOR LIFE.
Look how black ppl are telling blk girls to forgive CB….CONDITIONING them to be future domestic violence victims. Do you think J LO, Paris Hilton, KIM KARDASHIAN PARENTS prepared them to accept/forgive abuse? CB is rich. Why don’t you teach these blk girls to get their money/education and to NOT have premarital sex which can lead to pregnancy, hiv, AIDS etc.
The media,rappers will continue to bash black women as long as you allow it. BOYCOTT EVERYTHING, USE YOUR MONEY TO SUPPORT BLACK FEMALE ARTISTS, BLACK FEMALE BIZ, ETC.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BLACK MALE RAPPERS/SINGERS GAVE AWAY BLACK MUSIC CULTURE ON A SILVER PLATTER. THEY DESTROYED ONE OF THE VISIBLE FORMS OF MEDIA THAT BLACK PPL HAD …MUSIC.
In the 90′s, 80′s black ppl/WOMEN played a major role in music entertainment…videos setting trends etc. In the 90′s we had a several black female groups like en vogue, tlc, brownstone, escape,swv,jade. …as well as black female singers,rappers, reggae artists. Black people could have dominated the music scene had remain united. No one could have complained that blk male rappers/singers only have black women looking classy in videos. All other races/ethnicities do the same thing. Look at other networks.. white, indian,korean, latin men use the same women in their race for their videos,movies etc. Once THEY realized that selfish black rappers/singers were willing to destroy black women….the MEDIA ran with it. Do you realize the days of black female artists/groups are practically gone FOREVER. No, it’s not due to internet downloading. The face of black male rappers/singers have remained the same. They made sure NOT to include any other men. BOYCOTT THEM ALL. EITHER THEY RESTORE BLACK MUSIC CULTURE WITH BLACK WOMEN …OR DESTROY IT ALL. TELL THEM TO REMOVE THEIR BLACK FACES AND REPLACE IT WITH WHITE, LATIN, INDIAN MEN!!!!!!
I don’t care what race of women blk men date or marry. The issue is the EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES that they took away from blk women. The black music culture that was built on the blood, sweat,and tears of blk ppl should not used by blk male artists to make money for themselves and invite OTHER WOMEN to PROFIT.

BOYCOTT THEM ALL!! Look at all the ppl that are getting mad because I am trying to get black females to open their eyes. You have to remember that every race, cnn fox news ,KKK,ETC comes to blk blogs to stalk blk ppl and get info.
DO NOT FALL FOR THE TOKEN DARK/BLK FEMALE ANYMORE! Puffy/Diddy started the latina trend when he started dating J LO IN THE LATE 90′S. Don’t believe me….I challenge you to go back and find a latina playing the LEADING LADY in any video B4 diddy put J LO in his Been around the world video around 1997. I tried to get black women to protest back then because I new that other black male artists would start ding the same. Do you realize that if black women had given J LO a fraction of the HATE that you give Rihanna, nicki,and other blk female artists you could have STOPPED the latina, brazilian trend. Again..all latinas/brazilians do NOT consider themselves black regardless of their DNA.
I am soooo angry at all the blk women who grew up in the 90′s,80′s and allowed this to happen! You know darn well that you did not grow up seeing OTHER women in almost every hip hop RandB video. They are attacking the new generation. You have young black girls who have hardly seen any black females looking positive in these videos for their ENTIRE life. They want to keep black women down. That’s why every other day their is some random post about how insecure blk women are. It’s 2011 and black women you have LOST a lot. Black women had more positive images in the media in the 90′s,80′s. It’s only going to get worse until you BOYCOTT EVERYTHING! Go natural, make your own clothes if you have to. Stop giving the world your money. SUPPORT BLK WOMEN INSTEAD.
Diddy’s conscious must have bothered him. Yes, dirty money are black .. but look at the LEADING LADY in the videos. They will use a TOKEN black female to keep you quiet. Don’t fall for it. IF CB tries to have blk girls in his videos now because his team stays on these posts…. still BOYCOTT HIM, it’s too late.
LET me see them use black females for the next 10 YEARS LIKE THEY HAVE USED NON BLK WOMEN FOR THE LAST 10. Things should have remained the way they were in the 90′s.
BOYCOTT 106 and park on BET!!!There should not be any black girls sitting in the audience laughing when BET DOES NOT WANT A BLACK FEMALE TO HOST THE NUMBER 1 SHOW ON A BLACK NETWORK.
Rosci said that she is NOT black. BOYCOTT

Foxy Brown is dropping another album… WHY? It’s Nicki’s World!
Nicki is all over the place, that voice is starting to get annoying and I’m mad radio plays her songs every 3 min…time for the other girls to come out and get their shine on.
Happy 2011 !! Want a new life this year ??

Roger that i agree Lauryn Hill does need to come back
I would be dead if I was waiting for Dr. Dre, Lauryn Hill and Foxy Brown new studio album to come out. The boy that cried Wolf don’t have nothing on these three.
FLATSCREEN!!!
GO KELLY I AM FUCKING EXCITED!!!!!!
Did it on em has been playing on the radio for a month now. Kind of late reporting this.
EXACTLY… Theyve been playing that on the radio for a WHILE now
Kelly Im rooting for you but Foxy should be a last resort
You cant revive the dead…these kids aren’t aware of a washed out nobody…she may hurt you more than help with the ill na na
I love all these artists so yaaay
Go Nicki ,it is your world and for foxy i wish her success.
Nicki – I’m clearly not a fan of hers but “Did It On ‘Em” is hot. The beat is amazing.
Cudi – wow, good for him I guess. Seems like he’s getting himself together.
Did It On EM should have been the first single. Thats the best joint on the album worth something.
I’m not a big fan of Foxy Brown but I do wish her the best.
Ms Kelly… I rooted for her so many times and she always let me and many of her other fans or former fans down! It is too late. In order for her to have a successful career, she will need to have 3 Top 10 Hits and 2 number 1′s in America and worldwide with this album and I doubt that will happen. She will also need to have a lot of hype around her and stop hanging around and talking about Beyonce, which I know will not happen. Her singles are always amazing, but she doesn’t have the right marketing and publicity. Also, she’s 30. She said that she wanted kids soon so unless she changes her mind, has albums coming out back to back that go multi-platinum until she’s like 37, she’s not going to be a successful solo artist.
Nicki, “Did it On Em” is the weakest song on the album. It’s funny because all of the lames who said her album was “pop” were talking out their –ss because this is one of the many straight hip-hop songs that is on the album. What happened to “Fly” with 5 head Rihanna?
foxy is never going to drop> i was a fan i gave up on home girl from BK…Sorry foxy you fucked up!
