In addition to her concert tour, RiRi dropped her sixth album “Talk That Talk” and was recently embroiled in a  nasty exchange of words with the editor-in-chief  of a Dutch magazine, which subsequently led to her resigning her post.

For now, the hardest working woman in music is taking some much needed R&R in her native homeland of Barbados.   Take a peek below:

We’ll drink to that!

Webbie was slated to perform at The Ranch last weekend, but never showed up for the date. Promoters announced the cancellation around 2:00am, just before the venue was supposed to close.

According to eye-witness reports, promoters told the crowd that Webbie’s brother had called and told them the rapper had overdosed on pills and was in Temple Hospital in Waco.

At first I thought that this video was evidence that Drake was not afraid of breasts, but after watching him throw this woman’s bra to the side so he can save it for later, I’m still skeptical. What could he possibly be doing with a bra later besides wearing it?

Lil’ Wayne’s recent tour made a stop in his hometown of New Orleans last night.  DeWayne took advantage of the home court advantage and rocked the New Orleans Arena.

The King of Pop’s final images of him alive will be of him on stage, as it should be. AEG Live, the company behind Michael Jackson’s 50-concert tour, released footage of MJ and crew rehearsing for the epic show. The video shows Mike performing “They Don’t Care About Us” and he still looks like the greatest performer on Earth. It seems like we missed out on what would’ve been one hell of a show. The footage was shot a couple of days before his death.

The tour’s investors seem to have made the behind-the-scenes a full scale production with multiple camera shots and everything. And since they also have to recoup the hundreds of  millions of dollars they lost on a tour that won’t be happening don’t be surprised if you see this footage in theaters in it’s entirety sometime soon.

Michael’s memorial is set to take place on Tuesday at the Staples Center Los Angeles.

The internet has been going nuts over Drake — and it’s not hype at all. Drizzy had his first show in Atlanta on Saturday and the entire crowd had the lyrics down pat. I scored some great footage which you can check out here, or directly at I Fux Wit It.

This kid is gonna be a problem. “Congratulations.”

Check out this clip from a recent concert and listen to Pharrell Williams go completely insane on his fans. He curses at them, threatens to kick them out of the show and just acts like an all around douche bag…

See a more charming side of Pharrell in this video of him dancing and singing at McDonalds!

That copyright lawsuit must have Weezy shook. According to TMZ, Lil Wayne isn’t setting  any stages on fire at all.

A promoter in Rochester, NY who was left holding the bag 3 times over the last 4 months filed suit against the rapper Friday in NYC.

Edward Strickland, GM of RMF Productions, is suing Wayne, his manager and others for $1.3 mil. Strickland says he advanced Lil’ $100K back in October and got nothin’.

Strickland claims the last he heard from Wayne was via email canceling the third concert… which Lil’ said was due to “logistics of his band.” Translation: Lil’ blew him off.

Calls to Wayne have not been returned.

On Saturday December 27, Atlanta’s three biggest Hip-Hop artists; T.I., Ludacris, and Young Jeezy will deliver their first ever joint concert for Long Island’s Holiday Bash ’08.

The all-star show was the brainchild of Ludacris, who in a November interview with MTV expressed his desire to go on tour with other elite emcees from his hometown.

“I haven’t confirmed anything yet. It’s little talks here and there,” Ludacris cryptically stated. “But I’ll put it out there: I would love to do a tour where it’s me, T.I. and Jeezy. Me, Tip, and Jeezy would be outrageous. But nothing is confirmed yet.”

Based on how well the one-time concert does, an official nationwide tour could be announced shortly.

New York City’s Hammerstein Ballroom was dense with Making the Band loyalists Wednesday night (May 28) as giddy fans anxiously waited for Bad Boy’s reality rookies to kickoff their first collective tour.

Labelmate Cheri Dennis bolted onstage first, opening with her hit single “I Love You” and transitioning into the jumpier “Portrait of Love.” Clad in a skin-tight black dress and a gold belt, she strutted across the stage rousing the audience into dance mode.

Girls clung to each another with excitement as Donnie Klang—the evening’s second act and the only solo artist from Making the Band 4—took the stage in a black leather getup with female backup dancers serving as accessories. Dispelling the “white-boy-that-can’t-dance” stigma from the show, Donnie flitted in synch (pun intended) to the electro-poppy “Dr. Love.” He then wooed a bevy of screaming women during “Take You There,” revealing his Bad Boy boot camp six-pack to the crowd.

The raucous audience chanted before the spotlight panned to Day26 in black suits, shades and Michael Jackson-esque red gloves. With vocals gelling more than ever, the quintet phased in and out of up-tempo tracks like “Exclusive.” Using chairs as props, Day26’s dance routines were reminiscent of old school New Edition. Mario and Cassie danced along to “Got Me Going” while vocal coach Ankh Ra nodded approvingly. Willie, the crowd favorite, nearly incited a riot when he took off his fitted shirt and tossed it in mid-performance.

Diddy then introduced the evening’s headliners—Danity Kane, his “international superstars.” Draped in racy black and white dresses, the girls opened with “Bad Girl,” grooving in a robotic fashion as flashing lights illuminated their routine. The byproduct of choreographer Laurie Ann Gibson’s “Boom boom caks,” the girls hit every dance move to perfection, baiting the audience with sultry vocals. The biggest crowd pleaser was “Damaged,” from their sophomore album, Welcome To The Dollhouse. Diddy twirled and pumped his fists throughout their set, grinning ear to ear.

After presenting both groups with Gold plaques, Diddy said he nearly had tears in his eyes (along with dollar signs) watching the show.

“Bitchassness” aside, the sold-out venue and fanatical crowd proved that the Making The Band camp is more than a bunch of overnight celebrities.
