2FACE ENTER THE PLACE



tuface news promo album, I have scanned the pic for y'all. Its hard to still imagine that album covers are still printed the way the back of the album was printed. Its actually double printed like that the way it looks in the picture. I am still running through it. The tracklist is quite parse. Find it hard to believe this was actually being sold, how cheeky of 2face. It literally has 3 tracks. the first track is an intro so does not count. The rest comprise of a remix of Pako and the usual Nigerian artiste album staple which is the instrumental. With the amount of instrumentals included on majority of Nigerian albums. THE FULL AKBUM IS EXPECTED TO FEARURE R.KELLY, CHAKADAMUS AND PLIERS.

50 Cent sues ex-girlfriend


Shaniqua Tompkins publicly accused Fiddy, real-name Curtis Jackson, of burning down his Connecticut mansion while she and their son Marquise were inside last month.

50's lawyer, Brett Kimmel, told The New York Daily News: "There comes a point where you can no longer sit on your hands and listen to her spread these falsehoods."

He added: "Besides hurting his reputation, they have a damaging impact on their son."

In the suit filed at Suffolk Family Court, New York, 50 claims Tompkins will not tell him where she is living and alleges she is preventing him seeing Marquise

Ne-Yo in Chris Brown beef


Ne-Yo has recorded a tune dissing Chris Brown.
Rumours in the rap and rnb community persist that Chris Brown has been privately mocking Ne-Yo's sales and singing abilities.

Now a song released online featuring Ne-Yo includes several mild insults.

Having heard the currently untitled track, Orange can report that Ne-Yo is heard saying: "You may sell a million more than me, but you don't have a million more than me."

Rather unusually, he also claims Brown's "girlfriend's favourite song is mine".

Film special effects pioneer dies



Oscar-winning special effects expert Stan Winston, who created the creatures in films including Aliens and Jurassic Park, has died at the age of 62.
Winston, who also made the robots in Terminator, died at home in California surrounded by family on Sunday.
The film veteran had been battling multiple myeloma, a plasma cell cancer, for seven years, a representative of the Stan Winston Studio said.
He had worked with Steven Spielberg, James Cameron and Tim Burton.
During his 40-year career, he became a pioneer of merging real-world effects with computer imaging.
California governor and former Terminator star Arnold Schwarzenegger said: "The entertainment industry has lost a genius, and I lost one of my best friends.

Jay-Z's $88 million problem

Former boxer Mitchell Rose has filed a copyright lawsuit against the hip hop superstar at Brooklyn Federal Court, New York. Rose told All Hip Hop: "He took the style and delivery." He added: "He's on the regular, now Lil' Kim is using it. All I want is justice. Jay-Z knows what I'm talking about." It is alleged by Rose that following a fight between William Joppy and Felix Trinidad on March 12, 2001, he gave Jay a demo tape containing his own rhymes. The erstwhile heavyweight fighter even contends that lyrics were stolen in addition to style and delivery quirks. Rose explained: "He took the demo with him and shortly after that he began using the whispering (which he now frequents) in his songs."

R Kelly has been acquitted on all counts at his child pornography trial.


The verdict at a Chicago court came six years after the Ignition singer was first charged with videotaping himself having sex with an alleged 13 year old girl.

Kelly faced a 15 year jail sentence if found guilty of making and owning indecent images of children.

Both Kelly and the alleged victim had denied they were the ones on the tape, which was played for the jury at the beginning and end of the trial.

Defence lawyers argued that the tape had been tampered with, and that a large mole that Kelly has on his back did not appear on the footage.

Usher snags £50K for party gig




Usher performed at a private birthday party in a London club for £50,000.

Andre told ITN: "Katy idolises Usher and we had been in the club celebrating for a couple of hours when he appeared. Katy nearly fainted."
He added: "It was a really good night."
Usher, real name Usher Raymond IV, is the latest in a line of musicians to take big money for gigs at private parties.

Elton John is reportedly considering an offer of £2.6 million to play at a hotel opening in Moscow, while Madonna is rumoured to have accepted £5m to play a private party in Dubai last November.
