Seems as though Usher has hit the studio again with long-time friend and collaborator, Pharrell Williams as well as Maroon 5’s Adam Levine. It seems as though they’re working on a new album to be put out sometime this year. Interesting, considering how terribly Here I Stand flopped. I guess he’s trying to make people forget the bad taste that it left in their mouth.
LIL’ KIM TALKS NEW ALBUM
We’ve heard a little something from the the Queen Bee herself, Lil’ Kim, but she’s been keeping it fairly quiet about what’s been going on with her new project, and what she’s been working on as far as the music front. She recently sat down with MTV.com to talk about what she has in store for the new album.
She claims the new record will carry something new and unheard of from the Queen, and that she’s “getting ready to come with a whole new flavor, a whole new style.”
Here’s what else Kim had to say:
“And I don’t care what nobody says, I’m not gonna let anyone pigeonhole me. This is what it is. I’m coming with it,” Lil’ Kim explains further. “I got to hang in there with the fellas. The only way to hang in there with the fellas is to be able to do what the fellas do. And with Lil’ Wayne singing and rapping, T-Pain singing and rapping, and everybody singing and rapping, somebody got to represent for my laaaaaaadies.”

♫ 50 Cent - Play This On the Radio (full) - listen
Check out this new track that G-Unit has been sending all over the net from 50 Cent entitled “Play This On the Radio,” which they claim 50 is coming hard on. This is coming from 50’s forthcoming project, Before I Self Destruct, and self destruct he did on this track. Typical, mad and angry 50 Cent. Honestly, I got a little offended myself listening to this track, but you know, to each his own. I guess he’s trying to generate some more hype considering that these two singles that he’s put out haven’t really done… much of anything.
♫ Kat DeLuna feat. Lil’ Wayne - Unstoppable (full) - listen
I never was a fan of Kat DeLuna, but I think this guitar-driven song is really an interesting direction they’re deciding to take with her, especially since she was sort of a dancehall artist before (she was made popular by her single, “Whine Up”). The track features Lil’ Wayne, and you know nowadays in the industry, people think that if you throw him a track, it’s bound to save it. I wish that Kat would show more of her vocal ability on her music, though, considering that she is a classically trained opera singer.

Peep the new video from Teairra Mari featuring Pleasure P (former Pretty Ricky member). Personally, I thought Teairra was going to come harder than this! It lacks originality and is kind of boring. However, I kinda like the song though.
Teairra’s sophomore release, At That Point is due out sometime this Spring.
