Who’s your daddy? Well for 3 children and one unborn child Lil Wayne is!!

Wow just when you thought he was too busy to have a personal life, Lil Wayne has gone and got a fourth woman pregnant.

I’m sure you're trying to do the maths One…Two… erm don’t worry I’ll break it down for you… four babies by four different baby mama’s = Baby Mama Drama x 4

In the most recent interview with Tim Westwood, Lil Wayne – whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. confirmed that Nivea, R&B singer, had become pregnant with his FOURTH child, although that’s all he shared with the DJ.

That makes it three children in one year!

I feel an episode of Maury Povich coming on “And for one year-old Jr, Weezy You ARE the father” or “Lil Wayne: You sooo rich, then where the $%!* is my child support money?”

Actress and model, Lauren London gave birth to a baby boy last month to his second son, Lennox Samuel Ari.

In October 2008 the former Cash Money Records president announced at the annual BET Hip-Hop Awards that he was expecting his first son in just a “couple of days.” However the mother of Dwayne Carter III, has never been named.

The 27-year-old rapper fathered his first child, daughter Reginae, with ex-wife Antonia “Toya” Carter when he was only 15-years-old.

Here’s 411 on what’s been happening in the previous episodes of the baby mama drama: Nivea was previously married to The-Dream and gave birth to their daughter Navy Talia 4 years ago, they recently got divorced… The Dream then started dating Christina Millian then secretly got married in Vegas last month, In the mean time Lil Wayne got With Nivea and Bam Shes pregnant with her second child … wait I already said that LOL :P

British singer Jay Sean has taken over the US number one spot, removing Black Eyed Peas off the top spot.

After a mind blowing 26 weeks at the top of the US charts with ‘Boom Boom Pow‘ and ‘I Gotta Feeling’, Jay Sean new single ‘Down’ featuring Lil Wayne, shot to the number one position on the Billboard Hot 100 after selling 1.5 million downloads in total.


"It's just incredible to have reached number one with my first release in America," the 27-year-old said.


The 27-year-old West London R&B singer & Songwriter who was originally signed to Virgin records and then Jaydad (his own record label)/2point9 Records, quit all labels as he felt they were making him sound too popish for his liking.


Sean goes on to express how he feels: "It's difficult for me to put into words, my head is spinning. I've been grinding hard for the last seven years releasing records independently and now to have the biggest record in the USA this week, it's just a dream come true."


In 2008, Jay Sean appeared at the Mobos and announced that he was signed to Cash Money records, which is home to Lil Wayne, Juvenile, Baby/Birdman and very recently Bow Wow. “Ride It” singer has made history again by becoming the first ever British Asian to be signed to a US record label….Go On Son!!!


Leona Lewis topped the US charts with her song Bleeding Love last year, while Soul II Soul, Mark Morrison, Floetry, Craig David, MIA and Estelle have broken into the top 10 in the past.

SOLANGE KNOWLES ditches her hair saving her a flabbergasting $40,000 a year.

Solange Knowles appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show to discuss her addiction she had to looking good, with her drug being Hair extensions & Weave.

Beyonce’s little sister, Solange, “pulled a Britney” earlier this year and has shaved her head. I know what your thinking! OMG! But it’s not as bad as you think! According to the Daily Mail Solange wrote on her Twitter page that she was going through a 'I wanna cut all my Hair off & have a fade (cropped haircut) phase'.

As expected, being the sister of the R&B Diva, Beyonce, means she gets a lot of attention. The singer, who released a number one record “I decided” in 2008, has joked that the constant comparisons to her superstar sister might tip her over the edge and send her into a Britney-style meltdown.

She said: 'I get asked about Beyonce all the time but I try and make fun of it, sometimes I say she's not my sister. Other times I say I've stuffed her in my suitcase and sent it to Dubai. I have to have fun with it or I'll turn into Britney - shave my head and go totally crazy.’

On the Oprah show when she was asked how much money she spent on her hair Solange said: "Realistically I was spending about $40,000-$50,000 a year and probably half of my life, I grew up in a hair salon, my mum owned a hair salon.

"There was always this feeling of always wanting to be in the salon once or twice a week and I got a perm pretty early - I was four."

Its safe to say Solange isn’t going “Crazy” like Britney and defiantly looks like she’s going to have extra pocket money since she cut her hair earlier this year.

According to a new up and coming film produced Chris Rock, 'Good Hair', a staggering $9 billion dollars is spent catering to African-American women's hair alone.

After the recent split from Sugababes, Keisha is ready to launch her solo career with a help of her friend and songwriter, Taio Cruz.

The original member of Sugababes is to team up with the “She’s Like a Star” hit-maker and former ghost-writer as Taio made it clear he will be there to support her through the early stages of her solo career: ‘I would absolutely work with Keisha if she wanted me to. She can be sure that I will help her out…’

Jade Ewen, former UK Eurovison singer, has now replaced Keisha Buchanan as the third member of the band, who has had 2 previous member removed and replaced.

Original members Keisha Buchanan, Mutya Buena and Siobhan Donaghy formed Sugababes in 1998. However Donaghy departed and the introduction of Heidi Range in 2001 was met, the group then survived a second line-up change in 2005, when Mutya Buena left and was replaced by Amelle Berrabah.

Hearsay about the band’s future was triggered early last month when Amelle failed to show for a gig at London’s Movida nightclub.

At the time it was reported she had gone missing after being involved an argument with former band member Keisha, however it was later confirmed that she failed to turn up because her friend had been in a ‘bad accident’.

Keisha, who was accused of bullying Amelle, revealed on Twitter at the time: ‘I may come across as a hard nut sometimes, but I’m actually really sensitive and it destroys me to think people see me as the longest standing member and assume that I’m the b***h who causes people to walk, and it’s totally untrue and unfair.’

Keisha released a statement on her twitter, but I’ll save you the speech…. OK .. I’ll give you my favorite bits! :P

‘Remember my drunk pictures out with Amelle, supporting her on her success with Tinchy Stryder… Oh the shame… But what a fun night we had.

‘Now I’m going to take some time to focus on me. I’ve been in this band for 11 years and I have achieved so much.

‘I have a great family and friends who are behind me 100% and at the age of 24, I’m now going out into this world on my own…

‘Although i’m nervous… I’m still very excited on what lies ahead.

‘I want to thank the Sugababes fans and my fans for all your support and all who have never judged me, but accepted me for who I am… The feisty, funny, professional, fearless, motor mouth… lol

‘This is not the end… but the beginning!!!!

I’m sure your all wondering, ‘Where the *$%! is Dr Dre?’ well hes been gone for a hot minute, but hes coming back.

Everyone who knows about D.R.E and his production process, should know he likes to make each track a masterpiece, so no doubt when his album drops in 2010, we will be expecting to hear perfection.

Dre ’s been working on ‘Detox’ for the past 10 years, and he says it will finally be finished this year. “Hopefully, I’ll get it done at the end of this year, and we can hear it next year,” the good doctor explained.

Earlier this year some of Dres’ tracks were leaked online with vocals of T.I, Nas and Eminem, so fans are hoping to hear the same when the official album drops.
When Dre was asked why the album had taken so long he said “motivation, other things getting in the way.”

50 Cent as also made comments about the new album as he jokingly stated that he’d recorded material for ‘Detox’ that was too good he wanted to take to keep the tracks to himself.

50 added: “Hopefully, he’ll get it done and put it out…I’m waiting for the ‘Detox.’ All I can say is, Dr. Dre is the best producer in my eyes. Just the consistency over the years. He knows what he wants. He’s such a perfectionist that it becomes difficult for him to put it out.”

Expect the usual assortment of Aftermath guests to appear on the new album, including 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, Busta Rhymes and Bishop Lamont. Dre told MTV News that Jay-Z and Lil Wayne might also appear on the album.

2010 isn’t that far away and I’m sure with it being Dr Dre and the all the artist that maybe on it.. it will be worth the long *** wait! 10 years maaaaan!!!

R.Kelly is no longer Trapped in HIS Closet…

R.Kelly who is renowned for his song writing has recently confessed that despite his musical talents he suffers from illiteracy and managed to scrap his way thought grade school.

The award-winning artist recently spoke at the Midwest Music Festival in Chicago; about the issues he faced while kicking off his career.

"When I was trying to make it out here, I already knew, and I was stubborn about it," he said. "I don't even read really and I'm not afraid to say that. My cousins and brothers used to tease me 'you can't even read right. How you think you're going to come up?' The only reason I graduated from grammar school is because I had a great jump shot. I went to high school and [my teacher] told me 'you will one of the greatest writers of all time.' I believed. You [have to] believe it. You can't believe [anything] if you're hating. You can't achieve [anything] if you're hating."

Its evident that this disability has not stopped the “Number 1 Sex” singer from his ever growing success since he began his career 1990.

Statistics released in January 2009 by the U.S. Department of Education state that 1 in 7 Americans couldn’t read, that's about 32 million people across the country.

Many of these illiterate Americans lack basic literacy skills meaning they can't read a book or the directions on a pill bottle.

R.Kelly's forthcoming album is due in stores Oct. 12… Look out for its review, coming soon.

We all know how Divarish Kanye West can get and how he keep it real with the love for himself and his freedom of speech, even if that speech is painful to watch. You do remember the VMAs 2009 right? Taylor Swift? Beyonce??

When TMZ.com caught up with Kanye as he was leaving Los Angeles eatery and asked if he chose to dine on chicken or fish, Mr West sarcastically expressed his love to Chicken.

Well the way I came up with that decision was, I’m kind of hungry and I just … um … I think I wanted some chicken because I’m black — [so] you know I like chicken a lot,” he said. “I’m gonna’ do a commercial for chicken for free.”

As funny as it sounds, I reckon Yeezy does have a thing for chicken as he recently kicked off a fuss a surprise appearance at the “Common & Friends” benefit concert in Los Angeles, according to Vibe Magazine.

He was demanding to know “Why wasn’t I offered chicken?… You want me to perform for free, [and] everyone is eating … Why am I not eating?”

Adding fuel to the fire, West allegedly yelled at the waitress when she noted that he hadn’t actually asked for anything to eat (Isn’t she a brave one!)

Mr West being as uncharismatic as it is, once served, onlookers revealed that he took only one bite of the chicken before throwing it out.

Ahh Kanye West, you truly fill our lives with excitement with your crazy shenanigans!! :P

Another one of my Posts....

According to ‘The Sun’ newspaper, Roc-A-Fellas’ front man has said he would love to collaborate with Liam Gallagher.

Jay-Z who was last year criticized by Liam’s brother, Noel, stating he should not have headlined the Glastonbury music festival, urges Liam to give him a call so they can work on music together.

This came up after the rapper behind ‘Drop it like its hot’, Snoop Dogg wanted to work with Liam’s brother Noel Gallagher.

The hip-hop mogul said “I hear Snoop Dogg might be teaming up with Noel. If that’s the case then I would like to work with Liam.”

Jay-Z continues on to compliment their style, evidently letting go over last years clash and focusing on the potential success of the collabo.

“Their music is tight and I think we could blend our styles well. When I teamed up with Linkin Park nobody expected that to work but we made a massive success of it. The same could happen with Liam.”

Bouncing off his previous accomplishment with Linkin Park he goes on to say: “When you have two artists like us in a room just throwing about ideas you come up with something brilliant fairly easily. I don’t know what he is up to now but he can give me a call.”

So look out L23 readers, this might just happen!! A Top Geeza alongside A Fly Lyrical Genius! Gosh!

This Ones For the Ladies....

Nothing to say besides...

Enjoy...















I think there comes a point in most relationships when this song is RELEVANT!!

Its exactly what us Ladies do! We trust our men, but are still tempted to look on his phone... Then we find
the most silliest thing to hold against him... 90% of the time we know he ain't cheating.. we just wanna FIGHT!

"Whats wrong? you say nothing, but I can blatantly see that its something!"


Now what WE ladies fail to understand is ... Men are simple... so after we see it we get all iggy and funky but refuse to directly say anything... Instead we get cold/screw our face... for every conversation he generates we reply with two words at best... Leaving him to get frustrated and getting him to repeatedly ask if everything is ok ......

"I ask if you want food? You say no but I can hear your belly rumbling"

Why we do this I don't know! But it takes 3 to 4 times of him asking if we are ok for us to turn around and say "don't worry about it" or "I donno YOU tell ME" ...WTF!! LOL!


By this point he has NO IDEA what the Rass your talking about...If anything your just giving him a headache... Simple men and psycho attention seeking moment for women, don't mix!

Mind games are truly on! I must reiterate... Men are simple and aren't too phazed!! So they won't beg us for an answer, they'll just leave you be, however somehow something they says so innocently turns into a massive outbreak from our side (like we time it...."not now.. not now... not.. now.......EXPLODE!!).....

"Why you acting like a Pessimist....looking through my messages..don't you trust man?"


Referring back to the fact that guys are simple... it also means us ladies take it to another level of emotion and thought... So, a simple "hey John, how are you babes?" text, leads into "omg she called him babes.. what!! Is she something special, why is she calling him by his first name.. its not formal coz she said babes at the end... " then we take it to another level "is she trying to sound sexy or sumthing.. wtf is she doing textin? Who is this Alicia??" LOOOOOOOOOL!


Where else the guy is 'Simply' thinking.. "erm its just mate.. " and believe it or not... it is what it is...


" I'm a big man I can get calls when I like"


Don't get it twisted ... Some guys are playing around ... but us ladies do make things ten times worse by creating a whole episode of Eastenders in our head (theme tune and all!!) instead of asking a few questions then knowing where/how to drop it!! In this track Bashy mentions how shes crying... Its not because of what HE said... its THAT episode of Eastenders is STILL playing in her head with the dramatic ending, which is "OMG hes messing with her and has 3 kids with her, that I don't know of.......BABY MAMA DRAMA!!!"
.. The imagination WONDERS faaaaaaaaar!

What next? We want to end things! Want to dramatically walking away..... Causing an unnecessary scene!! Grr!! LOL!

Ladies..... Let a guy have his females and stop fishing for stuff to fight about ....

Guys... A girl will sometimes cause this as shes attention seeking.. sometimes she doesn't even know it.. but it IS!! So it should end with you hugging her up and reminding her how much she means to you... even if its JUST TO SHUT HER UP!!!


Listen to these lyrics and LAUGH!!! ......

I'm sure you've all heard the adverts on radio, seen the posters and watched the adverts on TV......
ItDoesntHaveToHappen is an anti-knife crime campaign designed to involve and captivate young people, to promote peace on the street, within their own communities.

Throughout February and March 2009, a number of anti-knife crime events took place in the 10 Tackling Knives Action Programme (TKAP) across England and Wales.


The events included school activities, street theatre, football tournaments, peer-to-peer marketing initiatives and workshops in attendance centres, all of which engaged thousands of young people with anti-knife crime messages.


The events informed young people of the dangers of carrying knives, equipped them with conflict resolution techniques, and helping them to find positive alternatives to knife culture.



ItDoesntHaveToHappen events were coordinated by young people, police, teachers, youth workers and community groups.


The campaign has now expanded, earlier this year a BeBo page was dedicated to ItDoesntHaveToHappen. The page allowed young people to take part, air their views and create their own ItDoesntHaveToHappen poster.

In addition, UK musicians, DJs and Actors have also took part in spreading the message.

Richard Blackwood dedicated a "Real Talk" seminar to
