"You look like a writer," he says warmly through the checkered scarf covering his face, as he guides me through a three-part power handshake.

"You look like a rapper."

"Then I failed," he says with a shrug, eyes, hand, and warmth dropping as he opens the front door, hustles in from the cold, and loses the scarf in the marble lobby.

Hands down, I was like alright so this doode's got some moves on Details. Then the more I read into his article, I was like what an arrogant son of a bitch ha.

Drake's mixtape So Far Gone leaked the other day and it's hot hot hot! It features Lil' Wayne, Trey Songz, Peter Bjorn, Lloyd, Lykke Li, Santo Gold, Bun B., and Omarion. I don't know about you, but I think he's mighty goodlooking, too mmm ha.

RaVaughn's "Play Me a Song" covered Brandy's "Piano Man." Which is better?

The "Swagga Like Us" performance by M.I.A., Kanye West, Jay-Z, Lil' Wayne, and T.I. at the Grammys was fire! Oh and M.I.A. didn't get into labor yet even though her baby was due last night.

Kanye West: Rihanna Is Like a Baby Sis
T.I. to Chris Brown: This Too Shall Past
Lionel Richie and Christina Milian Send 'Em Love
Mario Barrett: It's Unfortunate
Terrance Howard: Chris Brown's a Great Guy

The-Dream keeps getting better and better with his latest releases that include "I'm Not OK," "My Love" featuring Mariah Carey, "Right Side of Ya Brain," and "Rockin' That Shit (Remix)" featuring Fabolous, Juelz Santana, Ludacris, and Rick Ross.

No, Lil' Jon ain't come back, but T-Pain and Lil' Wayne hit the studio with "Snap Your Fingaz." I don't get the whole snap yo fingas bit with the scenario? Ha it's still hot.

So I couldn't get a flick of Taj Jackson, but he's def worth listening to. He has more songs out there, but these are two with my approval stamp ha. The first he recorded with Martin Kember is called "Far From Home." The second he got his own with "I Think of You."

You might know Ryan Leslie through his record babies like Cassie Ventura through NextSelection, Bad Boy, and Atlantic. He's been producing for a bit and singing every now and then. He finally came out with his own album named after himself, Ryan Leslie. Of the bunch, I'm digging "Gibberish" so far.

Trazz and Colby O'Donis recorded this upbeat song called "She's on Fire." Can't lie, this song is hot hot hot ha.

You might've heard of Sophia Fresh through "Drop It" or "Elevator Music." "Save Yourself" has a slower beat, but it's one my favorites by them.

I was downloading music and came across this young boy band called 2 Much. Their latest song they put out there's called "Fire," but I got "Explosive." They've worked with B5 and Myxx and have similar sounds? I don't know ha haven't really checked them out yet. Anyways, "Explosive" is a catchy pop song.

Their reps haven't released any official statements yet, but from the get down? It was said that Rihanna Fenty and Chris Brown broke up days before the Grammys, but their reps wanted them to pretend to be together. Chris supposedly talked to another girl, got her digits, and invited her to a party. Rihanna didn't seem too ecstatic and arguments flew left and right. She supposedly took it out on the other girl, and somewhere along the line, someone got hit in the eye? No one's identified who the victim was. Chris turned himself in, and the two are now being investigated.

I don't buy it but with evidence of Rihanna's bruises and Chris's bail, it's hard to believe otherwise. It's awful because the two were such a power couple. For things to ball down like this? It makes me wonder what's gone so wrong with this world.

Chris recently released a song called "Takes Time to Love." I absolutely love this song, but with the direction he's going, I don't think he's gonna make a video for this anytime soon. It's fishy after Rihanna and Akon just recorded "Emergency Room."
