Music and Basketball - Beyonce and Kanye West
Posted in Beyonce Knowles, JAY-Z, Kanye West on the January 15, 2008
Beyonce and Kanye West chose to put aside their Connect Four rivalry aside as they shared a laugh during the New Jersey Nets’ NBA basketball game against the Seattle Supersonics on Wednesday night in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The Nets won the game with a 99-88 victory. I’m sitting here wondering what the heck they were doing in New Jersey but I’m not going to ask.
Beyonce sat courtside and was sandwiched between her main man Jay-Z and Kanye. Their seats had ‘Rocawear’ emblazoned on the back. It’s the urban clothing label which was created by Jay-Z, Damon Dash and Kareem ‘Biggs’ Burke.

Rapper Pimp C, real name Chad Butler, has been laid to rest. He was found dead last week in his room at Hollywood’s Mondrian Hotel. His funeral took place in Port Arthur, Texas where KFDM-TV cameras caught the hearse pulling up to the Robert A. Bowers Civic Center in the rapper’s hometown.
According to KFDM, fellow rappers Jay-Z and Snoop Dogg planned on attending but did not show up. His one time collaborator C-Murder wasn’t able to show up either as he is currently on house arrest awaiting a murder retrial.

Rap mogul Jay-Z celebrated his 38th birthday in Paris on Tuesday with his longtime girlfriend Beyonce.
People is reporting that “The two spent a leisurely day inside their hotel suite (which overlooks the famed Tuileries garden) and, at one point, Knowles hit the hotel’s luxurious spa. As evening fell, the couple took a Maybach limo for a romantic drive around the City of Light before settling down to an intimate dinner upstairs at popular restaurant L’Avenue. Afterward, they pulled up for the late show at the Crazy Horse cabaret, where they sipped champagne and watched the cast run through the club’s new ‘Forever Crazy’ revue.”
Chris Brown Still Tops Chart

Chris Brown’s Kiss Kiss hit has claimed a third week at the top of the singles chart. The track held off competition from Alicia Keys’ No One, which jumped up a spot to number two on the new chart. I Like His Song Wall to Wall as well. What’s excited me is that I always love it when there are fresh new stars that top the charts rather than having the likes of Justin Timberlake, 50 Cent, Jay-Z and Kanye West dominate the charts. It argues well for the music industry to have new stars on the scene like Soulja Boy and Sean Kingston. Timbaland’s Apologize slides to three, while Soulja Boy’s Crank That (Soulja Boy) refuses to slip out of the top five - it holds steady at four. Three week’s at the top is like it has to be great music and people are buying the CDs a lot give the number the thrust to remain on top of the singles chart.

For the umpteenth time since they first paired up for the 2003 hit ‘Crazy in Love’ real-life musicians and lovers Jay-Z and Beyonce are teaming up. And it’s also shaping up to be the hottest ticket for the New Year’s Eve weekend.
Life & Style magazine is reporting that the first couple of hip hop will perform together around 12:30 am on December 30 for the Las Vegas opening of Jay-Z’s 40/40 Club. A friend of the couple reveals that the 37-year old rapper “wants his club to be the ultimate in entertainment. He knows the buzz is going to be huge.”
Mama Beyonce?
Posted in Beyonce Knowles, Celebs, JAY-Z, Music, Music People, News on the July 13, 2007
Beyonce has been one busy bee since she popped into the scene with Destiny’s Child. She has since gone solo, launched a clothing line and acted in a movie but she may have some secret big plans for the months ahead.
Rumor has it that Jay-z’s long time lover may be carrying his baby. There are even some whispers going around that the Irreplaceable singer has been acting differently lately with the common denominator for her actions being pregnancy.
She’s become anal with people smoking around her, saying no to alcohol and even giving up on her strict diet – coincidence or confirmation?
