Jennifer Hudson drops a new visual for her single, "No One Gonna Love You" and I must say, the chair dance routine is on point. I also love the direction of the video where a female watching the beginning may be ready to jump on the 'man hater' bus but slow down, watch the complete video, and enjoy. Grab JH's I Remember Me Album (here) if you haven't gotten this album already.

Lupe Fiasco Speaks On The O’Reilly Factor About Terrorism
Bill O'Reilly defending Obama is COMEDY! Wish I had the entire interview, but just hearing Bill defend Obama is enough laughter for my day. Of course, Bill does as he always do with his guest, 'talking over their responses', but Lupe actually holds his own in this debate/discussion and holds true to his point of view.

Reggae Star Buju Banton Sentenced to Ten Years
Today Reggae star Buju Banton was sentenced to 10 years in U.S. Federal Prison for his role in allegedly setting up a cocaine deal in Miami in December 2009. The 38-year-old Reggae star, born Mark Myrie was sentenced to 10 years in prison after he was found guilty of conspiracy to posses, with the intent to distribute cocaine. Although the details of this case were very fishy early on as an informant was paid a commission ($50K), video of Buju tasting the coke is what ended it for Buju. Our prayers here at ST are with Buju and his family. With good behavior, he could be out in 6. Read more (here).
Chris Brown and Frank Ocean Have Twitter 'Beef'
Attention Chris Brown and Frank Ocean!!! We like you both, but this is very childish and non-professional. Over the weekend, Chris Brown and Frank Ocean got into a Twitter Beef (yeah, another Twitter beef for CB). I saw a couple of the Tweets, but I ignored the drama. I do know that during the 'beef', The Game joined in and asked the 'little hommies' not to 'beef'. Game also Tweeted about being a model and how 'beef' will hurt everything you worked for. I respect The Game for trying to enlighten the youngsters, but I guess the 'beef' still went on. Whether these are Chris Brown's cousins or hommies, this is a 'punk' move and I doubt seriously if Chris Brown 'okayed' this. CAN YOU GUYS JUST MAKE MUSIC AND STOP TRYING TO BE GANGSTER!!
