Shanell aka SNL’s celebrated her birthday with a party at Club Primal in Atlanta, Georgia. She was joined by her sis D. Woods (formerly of Danity Kane) and fellow “Girls Club” member Mika Means. Of course a party wouldn’t be a party without her Young Money label mates Lil Wayne and Drizzy Drake adding to the crew.

Mary J. Blige announced the premiere of her new video, “The One” featuring Drake, via her TWITTER page yesterday.  We all anxiously awaited the drop and I, personally sat fixated at the screen once I saw it. The video is full of Mary’s signature model poses and she definitely WORKS it! “I ain’t sayin that I’m the best, but I’m the best!”

Thank you all for your comments. I really appreciate the love & The support. I really wanted this video to be crazy.I worked really hard ~ Mary J. Blige via Twitter

They ain’t got nothin on her. She’s the ONE! Check out the full video below:

“Forever” ~ Drake ft. Lil Wayne, Kanye & Eminem

Forever” will appear as part of a collection of tracks inspired by the film (due in theaters October 2), with the soundtrack coming September 29 on Interscope Records. Polow Da Don will executive produce the set, which will also include songs by T.I., Mary J. Blige and Young Jeezy. “Forever” was originally only going to include Drake and Kanye West.

“Swagger Like Us” ~ T.I. (original verse)

This is the original verse from S.L.U. which apparently didn’t make the cut. I dunno which one is better cause I haven’t taken the time to compare the two, but a T.I. verse is always welcome over hurrr….

According to MissInfo:

Drake and Lil Wayne were performing “Best I Ever Had” when Drake was moving across the stage and did a spin move…he must have turned his already-injured knee while spinning, because Drake suddenly collapsed on the stage. “He put his head down because he was in so much pain,” and then 4 guys ran out on the stage and had to carry him off. Lil Wayne was left onstage in a state of confusion.

Sources say that Weezy then said to the stunned crowd, “Damn, I knew that n—a’s knee was bad, but I didn’t know it was that bad! I thought he was just in a wheelchair on T.V.” [really?!]

Then Wayne had to keep the show going, so he performed “Mrs. Officer,” with Shanell and T. Streets (normally, Drake performs the song with Wayne.), and then “Every Girl In the World,” again, sans Drake.

Meanwhile, backstage, paramedics cordoned off a section and were examining the injured star.

The day after the fall, Wayne announced that Drake would not be performing. “I must let you know, we had a technical difficulty yesterday,” Wayne said of Drake’s status. “The n—a fell.” Weezy went on to say Drake injured yet another ligament in his leg. “He goes in surgery tomorrow,” Wayne said. “This is for my n—a Drake.”

Wayne also asked the audience to pray for his friend. Organizers for the tour have not put out a statement yet about Drake’s tour status, but Drizzy did tweet Miss Info after the fall: “All is well … On the bus laying down … Getting surgery this week but I’m walking. Thank my whole YM family for the help. Lion Hearts!” (source)

Drake recently took to his blog to pour out his heart to his fans about the incident.  Check out what he had to say below: (more…)
