After enjoying a lengthy stint as a backup singer for Erykah Badu, N'Dambi continues to bring the truth with her fourth release Pink Elephant, which will hit the streets October 6,'09.
Peep this clip of her latest release, Can't Hardly Wait. Support real soul music, y'all!
I haven't bothered to post on the passing of The King, as I wanted to give my thoughts after the memorial service. What with Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder, Beyonce and just about every other still-living celebrity scheduled to appear and pay homage, I only thought it more appropriate to express my thoughts at tht time.
But rest assured, I, like most of you have grieved, and I truly miss him.
Stay tuned.
This TIME magazine cover features a Herb Ritts photo of Michael taken during the shoot for the In The Closet video. I consider that photo series to be the best post-80's images of him ever taken, by the way. Just beautiful.
BONUS BEATS: Meanwhile, last weekend over in London, MADONNA, his closest peer (and let's not forget Prince, people), also gave it up for Mike during the opening night of her Sticky & Sweet Tour.
Not only do I remember actor David Carradine (older brother of Keithand Robert) from the great '70's show Kung Fu, but also as the titular character and star of my all-time favorite movie, Kill Bill.
He was found dead yesterday in a motel room closet in Bangkok. I, however, choose to best remember him as the recipient of The Bride's (Uma Thurman) Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique. R.I.P., Bill.
And the comebacks keep on coming: Arista plans to release Whitney Houston's untitled comeback album this coming September. Brace yourself, kiddies. This is truly turning out to be the Year Of The R&B Vanguards.
Things are definitely looking up, first with the return of Maxwell, and now your girl Sade. Her latest is set to be released just in time for the holidays. Thank Jeebus.
The new trailer for "Precious", formerly known as "Push", has been released, and suffice it to say, has Oscar written all over it. Although there has been much talk about Mo'Nique's devastating portrayal of an abusive mother, newcomer Gabourney Sidibe's performance as the titular character appears to be just as strong. It also seems like Mariah Carey will officially silence her critics with regard to her acting chops. I'm gonna put it out there; I was moved to tears by just the trailer alone. And being a lifelong movie fanatic, this has NEVER happened to me before.
