Video ~ “Say Something” (Remix) ~ Rasheeda & Nivea
The official video has dropped for Rasheeda & Nivea’s remix of Drake’s “Say Something”. It seems like it was just yesterday that I was reminiscing about Rasheeda’s “BubbleGum”, she’s come a long way.
I haven’t even watched the video but I’m gonna give them an A for effort. Or is it an E? Anyway, they both get mad points for trying the stay relevant so maybe I’ll? just give them an “R”….

Jermaine Dupri and his up & coming So-So Def artist Dondria hit up a few radio stations while out in Dallas last weekend during the NBA All-Star Game where he proudly promoted his up & coming star. I really like Dondria and am so glad to see Jermaine taking an active role in her success.
In case you don’t know Dondria’s history, she was discovered by JD after posting a series of videos on YouTube that displayed her vocal ability. CLICK HERE to re-visit my one-on-one with Dondria where she describes their meeting and discusses her single “Your the One”.
While in Dallas, Dondria sang the National Anthem at the NBA All-Star Rookie Game and Jermaine documented it all on video.
Check out Dondria’s All-Star debut below: Continue Reading…
Ciara performed during the Arise Magazine after-party at the Plaza Hotel during New York Fashion week and judging from her performance pics, she’s totally rocked the stage!
CiCi performed “Like a Boy” and “Goodies” and totally came back to life.? She almost made me forget about Fantasy Ride.

Video ~ “My Bubblegum” ~ Rasheeda
What was this… 2006? 2007? Whenever it was, I remember that Rasheeda was the ish! Hot female vocalist over a Nitty beat? Whaaat!!
It’s been said that you never take sand to the beach, but apparently Ludacris doesn’t heed such warnings, since he was spotted all cozy with his boo at the 2010 NBA All-Star Game.? Being that it was also Valentine’s Day, I’m sure there were quite a few disgruntled groupies in Dallas.
I think this is the same luva-luva that Luda was boo’d up with in Miami for New Years.? Call a Doctor. This could be serious!!
