Kelly Fights Back
Posted in Celebs, Kelly Clarkson, Music, Music People, New LP, Song on the July 16, 2007
Everyone knows about Kelly Clarkson’s fight with record executive Clive Davis. In the weeks before Kelly’s latest album ‘My December’ was released, Clive has made several biting remarks saying that it sucks in not so many words. Kelly has remarkably stayed silent – until now.
Kelly recently told the press about how she felt about what Clive has said. She comically says that she gets that he’s not supposed to like the album because he’s 80 years old. Ouch. She also made comments about the shady treatment she’s received from her label regarding her latest release, from being told lies to the fights to being told that the album would tank.
It still doesn’t explain why the album sounds like that though.
3000 for the Kids
Posted in Concert, Hip-Hop, Music, Music People, New LP, Song on the July 16, 2007
Hip-hop artist Andre 3000, one half of OutKast, has been moonlighting as a friendly face for the youth. He has taken up encouraging little kids to ‘Do the Crayon’ among other things as he performs as a cartoon character called Sunny Bridges on Cartoon Network’s kiddie toon ‘Class of 3000’.
Dre helped create the show, wrote a new song for the first season’s episodes and has released the shows tunes as an album which was released last week. Instead of songs with a little fun raunch like ‘Hey Ya!’ or ‘I Like the Way You Move’, Dre has penned funky songs like ‘Oh Peanut’, ‘Banana Zoo’ and ‘Cool Kitty’.
The show may be kid-friendly but those song titles are making my mind head straight for the gutter.
