Real music is back!! ?Monica aka Monica Brown played host to a private listening session for her upcoming?CODE RED?project and I had the pleasure of attending last night (August 27, 2015).
CODE RED, Mo’s eighth studio album, is scheduled for release September 18, 2015 but the songstress gave a few of?Atlanta?s top tastemakers, media, and DJ’s a sneak peek of her project during ?the preview, held at Atlanta’s Patchwerk Recording Studio.
Monica says she named the album ‘CODE RED’ because R&B music today?needs to be revitalized or ‘brought back to life. She explains her album title as follows:
When my first record dropped, I was only 13 years old. So now at 34, I look back at it and I can see how important it was for our generation.
So trying to reconnect to an entirely different generation of people, but with the same love and the same music.?I look at it as a ‘re-introduction’.
Attendees included Mo’s husband, Shannon Brown, Polow Da Don, Young Jeezy, Kap-G and many more.
Check out photos from Monica’s ‘Code Red’ listening session below… Continue Reading…

It was just a little over a month ago that Derek J. and his attorney in the case, Phaedra Parks of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, were in court facing the accusations of Benita Williams, a woman claiming that he’d ‘stole’ her weave right out of her head (click HERE if you missed that).
During their 1st court appearance (July 23), Derek refused to settle with the Plaintiff, who was seeking THOUSANDS of dollars in ‘damages’ and the case was subsequently rescheduled after Williams ‘fainted’ due to the stress (insert side-eye).
The parties appeared in court again yesterday (Aug 27) and Williams was no less dramatic than the first time. ?However, this time around the outcome was favorable to Derek J.

Bobbi Kristina Brown‘s fake husband, Nick Gordon, may have been banned from her funeral but that apparently can’t stop him visiting her gravesite.
While a multi-million dollar wrongful death lawsuit still looms over his head (click HERE if you missed that), the ‘grieving’ former partner of Whitney Houston’s daughter took the opportunity to pay his own respects to his lost love last week, as he remembered Brown in his own way by paying a visit to her grave.

With red and pink roses in hand, and carrying a folder full of photos featuring himself, Bobbi Kristina and Whitney Houston, Gordon spent about an hour at Fairview Cemetery in Westfield, New Jersey, where both Brown and Houston were laid to rest and shed a few tears for the paparazzi.
While his visit seems like a noble gesture, it’s being reported that Nick copped a check for about $40,000 for his time.
