PinBoard friend Brittany Bosco sits down for a cool interview with Homebase NYC. I love this lady so much…!
…Obviously I’m a little biased, but you really need to check out our amazing interview with Miss Bosco. Can’t lie – it smacks most other interviews I’ve seen on the blogosphere in a minute (sorry).

Watching this right now myself…
*Gulp* Good Lord, Toni Braxton is looking overly hot. Daaaayum! I actually quite like this song, suprisingly so actually – it’s not something I’d normally navigate to. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not the best track I’ve ever heard (or that Braxton has ever released), but I like it still. This pairing works too.
Peace, Love & Toni Braxton

Oprah Winfrey took to her show today to address the end of her show in 2011. In an emotional speech, the billionaire explained why, after 25 years she would call it a day. She also expresses the love and gratitude to all who have stuck by her and watched her show over past quarter decade, saying “you have enriched my life”.
Wow. An end of a true era. I’m sure Mama O has tons up her sleeves yet though. Looking forward to seeing how the next 18 months turn out.
Peace, Love & Oprah

P.s The Boyhood to Manhood is a great, great foundation. I worked on an event with them a couple years ago – they do truly inspiration work. Great cause.

Brand new J-Lo track ya’ll – supposedly off her new album Love?…
The track which was actually meant to be premiered on the AMA’s this Sunday (keep it locked on PinBoard for live coverage of the show), naturally leaked online before. Produced by Tricky Stewart and written by The Dream, the song isn’t that strong, but I don’t actually hate it. I like her verses, not feeling that hook – it gets a bit annoying after a couple seconds. Hmmmm, think it may be a grower though.
Peace, Love & Jennifer Lopez

…The boy has it, cannot be denied. He’s easily one of the most talented male R&B-Pop stars out there. His tribute was dope.

I’m unashamedly a huge Janet Jackson fan, so to see her back, doing what she does best is great! I love this song. I love that it’s an upbeat dance track. She looks hawt in the video, which looks like it’s gonna be kinda big. It’s incredibly telling that she has never found herself attractive, yet the entire world marvels at her beauty. Crazy, right?
Also, it’s being said that Michael Jackson’s estate are suing Janet (yes, MJ’s baby sister) for using the lyrics “don’t stop til’ you get it up” as they feel it’s too similar to Michael’s “don’t stop til’ you get enough”. What the f*ck, right? Even if the lyrics were exactly the same, I’m pretty confident her big brother really wouldn’t mind. Ergh, people and money gets too much. Foolishness.

A brand new leak off Timbo’s upcoming Shock Value II featuring, once again, Justin Timberlake…
Justin Timberlake – “Crazy Girl”
I much prefer their previous leak “Carry Out” < That track bumps hard. But I still kinda like this. It’s not brilliant, but I guess I just like these two on the same track. I think this ones a grower.
Actually looking forward to the new album, considering I wasn’t interested in the last one, one bit.

Res has just dropped a free album on her website. According the lady herself “Black.Girls.Rock that should’ve been released by Geffen a time ago…Better late than never…”. Wow, this is what all us Res fans have been waiting for huh? Glad it finally dropped – Lord knows it took a minute (obviously at no fault of her own). Anyways, lets get into this, I’m about to press play myself – you do the same and then hit us up in the C-Section.
