Friday night was such a random “A”zz night for me. After attending Keri Hilson’s Album Release party the night before, I had already decided that I was staying home but one of my Twitter friends (MissOdemi) hit me up with an invite to see Bobby Ray at the loft. Of course I couldn’t resist, so I headed on over.
While I was chillin in the back with my friend Rovella (of the AlmostFamous Show) almost board but not really, I glanced over and noticed Tiny chillin in the cut. My heart skipped a beat cause I knew that Tip wasn’t too far behind. A few seconds later, “The King” came struttin in the room and I knew it was about to be on!? Next came my boo Killer Mike and then Big Kuntry. I wanted to pinch myself cause I felt like I was in Grand Hustle heaven. B.o.B…..I mean Bobby Ray hadn’t even hit the stage yet, but here was Killer Mike, Big Kuntry and T.I. all in the back waiting for his arrival.
Mind you, no one (including me) suspected that Tip would actually hit the stage! But when he did….whoooo-weeee! The video doesn’t do it justice. All I can tell you is if you missed it…you missed out! Not only did Tip perform, but so did Killer Mike and Big Kuntry….and my sorry “A”zz couldn’t get footage cause I was stuck BEHIND the stage!!
If it wasn’t for TJsDJs footage I’d be kicking myself right now. Check out more classic footage from that night below: Continue Reading…

Thanks Pull for the Tip!
B.o.B. explains to MTV news about his trials and tribulations in the music industry. He states that he didn’t quit but he had to learn how to accept the politics of the music industry.
Maybe he read my letter…maybe not, but the truth of the matter is he’s back and we’re VERY happy about it!
Check out a recent video of Bobby Ray and Alien (the hottest drummer alive) performing below:

By the way…can someone please tell Alien I’m still waiting for my mutha-Effin t-shirt! 😆

Gyant over at SOHH posted a not so blind item a while ago, speculating that one of the hottest new artists to come out of the “A” in a while ~ B.o.B. aka Bobby Ray ~ is quitting rap:
Which new Atlanta MC, that’s been getting a STRONG internet buzz, is rumored to have quit the music industry?
This rapper, who has been compared to a hip-hop legend, has been on the cover of one of hip-hop’s most popular magazines. And just last week, had met up with a certain Detroit rapper to cut some records.
Turns out the speculation is true…well almost. B. Rich later confirmed that B.o.B. is going through some personal issues and has decided to step away from the microphone for a while. I don’t know how long he’ll be away, but my hope is that he will return soon because his musical style and talents are much needed in today’s music game.
B.o.B….if you’re listening…my prayers are with you. Stay strong and know that whatever the issue is, it’s only temporary. Learn from it and move forward. Take as long as you need to get through it but COME BACK! Your talents speak to so many people…Please don’t go!
