R&N - 02/14/09 - OnSmash Saturday pt.2

I haven't brought you any new artists for a month or so. Forgive me. Did you miss me? haha. College is crazy busy.
Happy Valentine's Day, by the way. This is not just for couples. Remember you have friends and family who love you. :)


On to business.
There's a singer named Priscilla. She's from New York, and has been blowing up the radio on Party 105.3 (Long Island radio station) since October! "Time" is the track and expresses what everyone feels at some point in their lives.


Every single day I'm little closer
Every step I take, I know I'm almost there.
Gotta stay away from the things that bring me down...
(Never give up. Never give up.)
....
the chorus ending in:
I will be just fine. It's just a matter of time.


This strong Latina has some chords you can't touch. She's a little pop, a little RnB, and a little club-y.

Check her out on myspace and add her street team to find out how to help support her. Radio support team here. She's currently recording some new songs. Hear part of one of them in her latest vlog.


Priscilla's Vlog: January 14th.

R&N - 02/10/09 - Evening News

Chris Brown Back in VA?
http://www.wrensnestonline.com/blog/wp-content/chris_brown.jpg

We're still keeping you posted on the developing Chris Brown situation. So far, the speculated story is that Chris Brown was driving
and got a phone call from a particular female. When Rihanna found out who the female was, she went into a jealous rage and started the heated argument/altercation.

From the evidence, it seems "there is serious swelling and bruising. Her lip is split and her nose bloody." Bite marks on one of her arms and fingers are also visible on police photos. As it seems, Chris fought back and then left the scene. Sources say that less than 24 hours after the incident, he had boarded a private jet and flew to the east coast. I don't blame him... The situation is really spiraling out of control. Hopefully, pure fact will be obtained by the end of the week.

Condolences go out to Rihanna and her horrific night. I also hope that whatever occurred that Chris will get a fair say in this matter. That's all for now. We will keep you posted.

Chris Brown - Story So Far...

http://images.contactmusic.com/dn/rihanna_855_18459997_0_0_7003673_300.jpg
Sources say that Rihanna (Robyn Fenty) did not call the police alleging that Chris assaulted her like people first thought. It was a bystander that called 911. LAPD arrived on the scene and questioned Rihanna.

Police claim that, on the scene of the incident, Rihanna identified Chris Brown as the man who assaulted her. There is also physical evidence of the attack. Reports confirm that Rihanna’s face and arm were severely bruised in the incident and Chris suffered from minor bruising as well.

According to sources, for whatever the reason, Rihanna is no longer assisting investigators in their criminal case against Chris Brown.

Also on a serious note, it is possible for Chris to get about 10 years. Since there were visible injuries, making criminal threats is punishable by up to nine years in prison.

In addition...



Due to this situation, Chris's DoubleMint contract with Wrigley's may get lost as well. The company says the commercials are suspended until further notice. The also stand neutral on this situation saying that the Chris should be given the same due process as any citizen.

I don't know how this is gonna turn out, but trust Music Forecast will be giving it to you play by play.

R&N - 02/09/09 - Grammy's Last night

So, how bout them Grammy's, eh?

U2 opened the show. Whitney Houston, who I have not seen in ages, came out and introduced the nominees for Best RnB singer. Jennifer Hudson won that.

Soon after came Justin Timberlake and Al Green with the 70s hit "Let's Stay Together." That was sweet.

Taylor Swift and Miley's highly anticipated duet was Tay's "Fifteen" off her "Fearless" album. Honestly, I felt personally attacked watching this: Miley & Taylor, being both ex-girlfriends of Nick & Joe Jonas, singing these lyrics. The lyrics "Cause when you’re fifteen / and somebody tells you they love you/ You're gonna believe them." It had to be that song because..? hmm. Looks like someone is still NOT over their exes.

On the other side of that, I was thoroughly impressed and dazzled when the Jonas Brothers took the stage with none other than Nick Jonas's idol Stevie Wonder! He joined them for a shortened version of the JB hit "Burnin' Up." Then the music changed to that familiar intro beat of Stevie Wonder's Superstition." The Jonas Brothers have been doing a cover of that song in their acoustic shows in California late last year and most recently, Nashville, TN in January. Last night was utterly beautifully done. You may not have won a Grammy, but it's ok. It was a 'cursed' category anyway.



MIA's performance was highly awkward, with the mesh outfit and the fact that she looked like her water could have broken at any moment all over the stage. I'm not hating on the song, though.

more on this later.

R&N -- GRAMMYS -- 02/8/2008

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!.....BUT!!!!!



Congratulations to Robert Plant and Alison Krauss' for their sweep of 5 Grammy Awards tonight including best Pop Collaboration and Best Album.




But their sweep was overshadowed before the show even began when police announced that Chris Brown, a fellow nominee and scheduled performer, was being investigated for allegedly assaulting an "unidentified" woman the night before. Brown turned himself in to authorities and was briefly held before posting $50,000 bail Sunday night, jail records showed.



Brown and his "We just friends" girlfriend Rihanna, also nominated, were both scheduled to perform in different segments of the show, but separately dropped out at the last minute. The alleged victim of Brown's so-called assault wasn't identified, and it wasn't immediately clear whether Rihanna's absence was related to Brown's.

Police booked the 19-year-old R&B singer and dancer on suspicion of making a criminal threat, a felony.

I don't know about ya'll but either way u look at it.....EMBARRASSING! Good luck to the C. Breezy.

And was anybody besides me ACTUALLY rooting for Lil Wayne???? I mean...I really wanted to see him win this one. But I'm sure his four Grammy wins will make him feel a bit better about it.
