Mya Leaving Label And Dropping Motown
2008-01-04 11:58:47
After almost a decade in the entertainment industry, R&B singer Mya Harrison is navigating her career on her own terms.
Since coming on the music scene in 1998, the 28-year-old singer, dancer, model and actress – who was in Wilmington recently shooting the movie Love For Sale for locally based Swirl Films – has had several hit singles. Her self-titled debut album has sold more than 2 million copies and produced several hit songs, including It’s All About Me, Movin On’ and My First Night With You. And Harrison earned a Grammy for her collaboration with pop stars Pink and Christina Aguilera and hip-hop artists Missy Elliott and Lil Kim to remake the Patti Labelle classic Lady Marmalade for the Moulin Rouge soundtrack in 2001.
But singing wasn’t enough for Harrison. She started acting, too, taking roles in such films as Chicago, Havana Nights and Shall We Dance.
In Love for Sale, her 11th movie, she stars opposite actors Jackie Long from the movies Idlewild and ATL, and Jas ...

Tragedy Khadafi Arrested
2008-01-04 11:54:51
Got an email from Miranda Jane about her pr-client Tragedy Khadafi. I hadn’t realized that he’s been in Riker’s for the past few months, and last week he was convicted of a class C felony aka “Criminal sale of a controlled substance in the 4th Degree” and sentenced to 0-4 years in prison.
According to his reps, Trag was arrested during a sweep in Harlem, but they take issue with the fact that he is being labeled a “predicate” felon. He was incarcerated before as a teen, and then as an adult in Elmira. I’m not so good with the legal terms but I believe predicate means that you were convicted of another felony within 10 years of the current charge, so maybe his past adult conviction was older than 10 years?
I can’t make any judgements about the legal system in this case because I have no idea if Trag is guilty of a crime or not, but I respect his work and feel for his family. If you would like to write Trag, here’s his contact address:

DMX Will Release A Gospel Album
2008-01-03 15:14:14
Many of DMX’s conversations with God have been a matter of public record since his career bloomed to superstar status in 1998. His catalog features nearly as many inspirational ghetto hymns — such as “Lord Give Me a Sign,” “A Minute for Your Son” and “The Prayer” — as it does party anthems and street-corner knockers, and in 2006 he pondered changing his name for “spiritual reasons.” But now, the Dog has decided to go in full-throttle with his first-ever gospel-rap album, which he told MTV News will be coming out this year.
“I [was] the first n—a to put out two albums in one year [It’s Dark and Hell Is Hot and Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood in 1998], now I’m gonna hit ‘em again — drop two albums on the same f—in’ day, yo,” X said from his home in Arizona on Friday. “A double album will make mutha—-as mad, because they gotta spend more money — plus it’s a ...

Ne-Yo Sued R. Kelly
2008-01-03 15:05:19
After being ousted from R. Kelly’s North American tour, R&B star Ne-Yo is firing back with a lawsuit against the Chicago singer’s promoter, Rowe Entertainment.
As SOHH previously reported, Kelly’s camp said Ne-Yo was relieved from the line-up because there was no signed contract, but Ne-Yo begged to differ.
“In my opinion, I was doing everything possible to make the tour a success … You know right away if they are feeling you; and they were really feeling our show,” he said.
Ne-Yo (born Shaffer Smith) believes the real reason he was given the boot is because he was outshining Kells.
The suit, filed on Dec. 31 with the Superior Court of the State of California in L.A., claims that on Nov. 12, 2007, “without warning and without valid basis to do so,” Kelly fired Ne-Yo
According to The Smoking Gun, who obtained a copy of the suit, Ne-Yo goes on to allege that an unknown rep for Kells urged him to terminate Ne-Yo from the tour “gi ...
