Soul/jazz singer Amy Winehouse kicked off her long-awaited comeback tour on Sunday evening in Belgrade, Serbia. With just 3 weeks out of rehab, the English-native gave painful performances of songs from her previous albums Frank and Back to Black. The 27 year-old Grammy-winning artist could barely keep her balance as she fumbled through the lyrics of her songs. Eventually the audience booed her off stage.
As a result, Winehouse has canceled the rest of her 12-stop European summer concert tour and scrapped all public performances. Her spokesperson, Chris Goodman issued a statement today:
[Amy Winehouse] is withdrawing from all scheduled performances. Everyone involved wishes to do everything they can to help her return to her best and she will be given as long as it takes for this to happen. [Source]
I must admit, she does look better than the last time we saw her before rehab. I just hope she gets her life and career in order. We need some more great music from her…Peep the clip below…Even her band members are laughing at her…smh…

Dawn Richard seems to be releasing solo material at a rapid rate, considering that we just posted a new track for her earlier this week.
This time, she takes a stab at Frank Ocean’s hit, “Novacane,” from his street album, Nostalgia/Ultra, which is being retooled and slated to hit stores soon.
Check out what’s shaping up to be Mary J. Blige’s first single, featuring none other than Nicki Minaj.
Originally thought to be some unreleased material, the Jerry Wonda-produced track is seemingly the lead single from Mary J.’s tenth studio album, My Life Too, The Journey Continues, which is slated to hit stores September 20th. Wonder what Lil’ Kim is going to have to say about this?
Drake releases another track via his website entitled, “Trust Issues.”
Again, the song is produced by Noah “40″ Shebib and Adrian X. Drake assures us that this track will not appear on his hotly anticipated sophomore album, Take Care, which is slated to hit stores October 24th.
