  A Slurry, Rum-Buzzed, Focused And Firm Andre Williams
(May 13, 2012) "I know I'm a rummy, but I ain't no dummy."
Uh-huh, amen.
Andre Williams
has a way with
rhymes. Dude's a right Don King, or something out of a Steve
Miller song: A smoker, a joker, a midnight toker who really does
love your peaches and who will absolutely shake your tree. Yeah,
it's like that.

 Chaka Khan Stuns Crowd with
60-Pound Weight Loss
(May 14, 2012) If you’re a fan of
Chaka Khan,
you remember when she first hit the stage as a teenager and
would wear just a loin cloth top and pants that resembled
leather chaps along with her trademark feathers. The latest
sighting of
the singer
was reminiscent of that time in her career.

 It’s a Wonda-ful World for Super Producer Jerry Wonda
(May 13, 2012) *It’s almost like the modern formula for creating good
music is not to cook up a beautifully-crafted song, but a
twisted amalgamation of over used techniques, and lyrics that
are free of imagination. However, the modern music lover can
rest easily. People have noticed your plight and are trying to
do something about it. People like Jerry Duplessis aka
Jerry Wonda.

 Hop On Popera With Il Divo
(May 16, 2012) Sébastien Izambard may belong to one of the most
famous singing quartets in the world —

kids.
He serenades them with “London Bridge,” “Three Little Monkeys”
and “Frère Jacques.”

 The Rap Pack And Their Genius Website
(May 13, 2012)
Fast-forward to July 2009, when
Rap Genius
arrived online like a smarty-pants in Air Jordans. If I wanted
to know what Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest meant when he
rhymed, "Scheming on the cookies with the crazy booming back
buns," I finally had an omniscient hip-hop Oz.
