REUNITED ...


FINALLY - Kandi said YESSS to a reunion!  Best news ever! The mid ’90s R&B girl group Xscape is getting back together nearly two decades after calling it quits. In case you don’t remember them, it’s where we got our first introduction to future Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss, 40, and T.I.‘s soon to be ex-wife Tameka “Tiny” Harris, 41. The ladies hit up Big Tigger’s afternoon show on Atlanta’s V103 to officially announce that they are back together and ready to roll!


Tiny and Kandi had been feuding for years, but they just had a conversation recently were they decided to put all of their hate in the past. Tiny revealed, “We’ve grown. We’re going to let bygones be bygones and everything else after this is going to be our legacy.” The two finally had their first big talk in years Feb. 27 and Kandi said, “It’s crazy cause last night it was emotional. We had a real conversation that we hadn’t had in a long time.”


We got our first big hint that something was about to go down when Kandi dropped a video to her Instagram account showing off herself alongside Tiny and Tameka Scott, 41, at the radio station and captioned it, “Tune in to @v103atlanta! It’s the first time I’ve done an interview with my group XSCAPE in probably almost 18yrs.” Whoa! Tiny and Kandi together and happy? That’s something we thought we would NEVER see!

Well Damn

Soldier Standing


Soldier - Happy Birthday NINA SIMONE.  This ladies lived an epic life.  Leading the new resistance, standing strong in her convictions.  Her ability to overlook the naysayers was uncanny.  She represented a new conscious of 'freedom'.  As an American singer, songwriter, pianist, arranger, and civil rights activist who worked in a broad range of musical styles including classical, jazz, blues, folk, R&B, gospel, and pop.


Born in North Carolina, the sixth child of a preacher, Simone aspired to be a concert pianist. With the help of the few supporters in her hometown of Tryon, North Carolina, she enrolled in the Juilliard School of Music in New York.


Simone then applied for a scholarship to study at the prestigious Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, where she was denied despite a well-received audition.  Simone became fully convinced this rejection had been entirely due to her race, a statement that has been a matter of controversy. Years later, two days before her death, the Curtis Institute of Music bestowed an honorary degree on Simone.  Talk about too little too late, she had already revealed her magical to the world.  Her legacy LIVES!!!


Hmmmm Interesting

Karma Bitch


Karma - Kudo's to Rocko, for standing his ground he and Future have settled their lawsuit.  Ciara wins too.   After signing a record deal with Rocko's A1 Recordings in 2011, Future breached the contract and is being sued for management and finders fees. Ciara is also suing for a false light claim which was an amended claim from the defamation suit she initially filed against him.


Future and Epic reportedly agree to give all royalties from his next two albums to Rocko. In addition to the albums, Future will also give Rocko 50% of all touring revenues for the next two years. In order for LA Reid and Epic to recoup the advance that they will forfeit while Future pays Rocko back, Future signed a 360 agreement with LA. To pay Epic back, Future will give a percentage of any deals made outside of music to Epic until his back advancements are paid or for the next five years, whichever comes first. LA and Epic will also be collecting on the front end on all of Future's music ventures.


For Ciara, Future has agreed to release a general apology and to not make any negative comments regarding her on social media or interviews. He also will not discuss custody arrangements in interviews. If he violates any of these conditions, it will result in fines of up to $5 million.

Birthday wishes


Happy Birthday John Travolta

To live your life, being the best that you can be in any given situation, is about unlocking walls that you've built for protection and survival. #TGIF


Polanski settles


DUMBASS - Cleary this lady has her OWN agenda.  She write a book in 2013 speaking about the tragic incident, less than four years later, she's ready to Que Sara Sara ... this is quite disturbing to me and In my opinion, she doesn't defend rape victims.


Roman Polanski's rape victim, Samantha Geimer, says she's sick of victims' rights advocates and others trying to paint her as a pathetic creature ... she's fine and doesn't think rape necessarily destroys lives.


Geimer, who was 13 when Polanski raped her 40 years ago, is solidly in favor of the famed director regaining his full freedom. TMZ broke the story, Polanski's lawyer is going back to court next week, asking a judge to recall the fugitive warrant and rule his client did his time under the plea deal.


Geimer says all she seems to encounter are people who don't want her to be ok, to serve their agenda.
