R&N- 6/16/2009- Unladylike




I have the pleasure of introducing you all to a new rap duo ladies and gentlemen. Straight from East St. Louis, we have two females who are determined to be on top in the rap game. Tee, age 21 (Teosha Thomas) and Gunna, age 22 (Jasmine Baker) together form the new rap duo Unladylike and are ready to take the rap industry by storm as they push to reclaim the throne for the ladies. Last time I saw a female rap group was hmmmm......Salt 'N' Pepa, so it's been a while. I think we should start keeping an eye on their success. They have already been pushing their first single "Bartender", and let me tell you, that song has been in my head for days. Now they have been working on getting their second single out there to create more buzz. "Dough" has a catchy get money theme to it and sure to keep the heads noddin'. Already signed to Def Jam the ladies have an album already in stores called "Certified" that was released June 9th 2009. I had the honor of speaking to the beautiful ladies yesterday and they are both fun and confident. Gunna, who got her name based on how quickly she can flow, stated she is the party girl but is also about business. Tee states she compliments that with her laid back style. Check out their very first video, which I hear, they couldn't get out to the masses as much as they wanted due to the content being focused on alcohol and seeming to be too young to enjoy it...even though they are 21 or over. (Hmmmm ....did the same rule apply to Jamie Foxx's song about alcohol?) Keeping these ladies from getting their drink on while the male rappers and singers do their thing...now THAT is unladylike.

R&N - 06/15/09 - Evening News

The hottest album of the summer is already out (12am Eastern) June 16th!
Which album is that? "Lines, Vines, & Trying Times" from the Jonas Brothers. This is their 4th studio album as a group. I'm so proud of them. This album features hip hop artist, Common, on the track "Don't Charge me for the Crime." This is the most mature Jonas album to date. They have added a horn section, and have more string instruments. "Poison Ivy" sounds kind of silly at first, but when you get to the core of it, it's intense loathing. "Everybody gets the itch. Everybody hates that.."



Yeah, they went there. Makes me wonder who "that.." is. haha. But I'm not speculating here. Also, for some reason Miley Cyrus is on "Before the Storm." I probably shouldn't comment further, but if you don't like her, just don't listen to the track. :) Yup. that's my solution, anyways...

BUY the album! where ever CDs are sold or on iTunes! If you pre-ordered, you should already have it.. or it will be there tomorrow. I have mine. I LOVE it.

The Jonas Brothers World Tour kicks off in the states THIS Saturday June 20. Where else, but Nick J's hometown.. Dallas. In this case, Arlington, at the new Cowboys Stadium. Opening for them are Honor Society. I'm too proud of them for words. Also Jordin Sparks will be singing on the tour, too.
