The Bad Boy recording artist, who released his first and last album in 2001, entitled Child of the Ghetto, has been shelved like many other artists on the label and left to find other ways to make a living. And if "other ways" include venturing out to another label, that option's pretty much a dead end, given the fact that any material released will still belong to Bad Boy Entertainment (because the contract has yet to meet its quota).
Look at how Diddy has given himself extensive promo, two videos, and three singles for his mediocre pop-tunish Press Play. However, Danity Kane did considerably well and still weren't allowed a second vid until after their album had tipped towards the bottom of the charts. The Lox had it out with Diddy for quite some time before the beef was settled, Ness will probably never be heard from again, http://blogs.sohh.com/ya_heard/2006/05/now_for_sale_re.html
even though his official deal with Bad Boy isn't even a year old yet. Where is that kid crew B5? What happened to Cheri Dennis? All these artists sign on only to get written off. It's not fair.
And like Eskay said, some of these artists need to be doing their homework on the business aspect, but at the same time, what someone said was true:
"diddy is heartless. Only if the lox, g-dep, black rob…etc knew then. He's seen in a different light cuz he's black and you'd think he'd do his best to help his own people, but he's just as bad as the rest [of the executives]. It's a shame. "
Why does Diddy continue to shelve his artists? There's an entire list of artists that have fallen through the cracks under his watch; this is not a coincidence.
First Eva Mendes and now Christina Aguilera drops it for Maxim. Again I gotta say CA has been getting finer every day she’s been married. Don’t know what it is? Maybe she’s having her maid cook more beans for her . . . we know her ass ain’t cookin.
She seemed to channel her “Dirty” days when she was slutting it up with Redman (Oh BTW where the fuck is Red?). She tells the lad mag: “We had fun working with certain clothes, or the lack thereof. I never mind contorting myself for a good cause.” Oh, you fuckin’ tease.
The March issue of Maxim with Christina showing off her goods drops today. For more pics go to maximonline.com.

Fellas, (and some ladies), I got the new pictures from Deelishus’s new magazine spread. The powers that be over at Smooth Magazine liked Dee Dee so much that they gave her two covers for the special ‘Live In Jamaica’ issue.
Here is the first set. I will post the rest of them tomorrow!
Talk to y'all lata,

Time For Another Poppin or Floppin Video-Bow Wow "Outta My System"!!
Tuesday. 2.20.07 3:11 pm
What’s good everybody?
Well its time for another Poppin or Floppin video. This week’s video selection is none other then Atlanta import—Bow Wow. Bow Wow is still trying to some how save his latest album “The Price of Lame” by releasing another video, which will probably be his last one. The video stars relatively new artist(s) T-pain and Johnta Austin on the hook.
In my opinion Bow Wow has officially lost touch with what made him popular back from the start. His overzealous, tenny bopper fans have grown up into full fledged woman. They don’t care about these over simplified rap lyrics anymore. It barely worked for LL Cool J and it for damn sure aint working for him.
Somebody better help Bow quickly before he’s on the next season of the Surreal Life.
Check it out, and tell me what y’all think!
Until next time,

But the important thing is that, the cd contains a Hidden Beach sampler that has a pretty lengthy snippet of what is supposed to be Jill's first single from her new studio album coming out in June.
Rich Harrison. You know the name. And if you don't know the name then you know the hits. He and Amerie developed a sound with her first album, All I Have. It's been recreated in Beyonce's "Crazy In Love", Jennifer Lopez's "Get Right" and of course A's "1 Thing".
Like when all producers blow up, they work with all the big names. But when the dust settles and they become a staple, sometimes new ventures are required to take it up a notch or two.
ENTER RICHCRAFT RECORDS!
Rich is fuckin with Atlantic in a major way. He's got some male R&B acts coming on his new label. Keep in mind Rich typically works with women and has only really grinded for two dudes-- Diddy (Making It Hard" featuring Mary J. Blige from Press Play) and Usher ("Take Your Hand" from Confessions). There may be one two other songs for Usher and I think something with Mos Def, but overall Rich has been a ladies man.
Enter Young Steff and Jaiden.
Young Steff is the first male up to bat on RichcrafT.
