Now y'all know I've been on Drake for a hot little minute now. Well color me pissed when I found out he was coming to Chicago this Friday and all the tickets are sold out! *fuming* I need tickets and I won't be content until I'm belting out "Brand New" with Drake live. Somebody hook a sister up! Drop me a comment or hit me on the email at info@watchyoursetup.com and let me know where to get some tickets.

Until then...here is another performance from ya boy.

Michael Vick received a early release because the prisons are over-crowded. He was initially supposed to be released to a halfway house near his home, but that's crowded as well. Consequently, he'll be on home confinement in July. Talk about luck.

*Goes to find my girl scout uniform* I wonder if he'll open the door to buy some cookies? Just a thought...LOL

I wonder who the next Black Celebrity scapegoat will be be....hmmmmm.

I knew this was coming....Tina Fey, alongside Queen Latifah will be doing a spoof of the Vice Presidential Debate. *puts my reminder on Comcast now*

Tina Fey might as well just resign herself to the fact that she's destined to play Sarah Palin for the next month.Word on the street is that Tina will be back on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE this weekend, along with guest host Queen Latifah.The Queen will play Vice Presidential debate moderator and PBS journalist Gwen Ifill.

The fact they look so much alike humors me the most. Get ready folks, this is sure to be comedic relief. Palin is somewhere banging her head against the wall like "She's ruining my lifeeeeeee!" LOL

I can't wait for this cd to drop! Jazmine Sullivan is killing the lyric/singing game right now. The new single is "After The Hurricane" and I think it will be a great follow up from "I Need U Bad."

Here's what Jazmine had to say about her new single. " Having experienced break ups before, the signs of another can be clear as day. Suddenly he’s avoiding you, not much eye contact, maybe even an unexplained tear or two. Oh boy, here it comes. Like when you see black clouds and a hot wind, you know something bad is coming. Broken and busted bad. This is going to hurt but, not for long. Experience has taught us that picking up the pieces and beginning again will be hard but not impossible.

Kanye West's company, KW Foods LLC , is blessing the Chi with it's first FatBurger restaurant. He'll be putting it in Orland Park, a south suburb, so it will most def be making that money!

"The 2,353-square-foot fast-food restaurant at 15110 S. La Grange Road will be the first Fatburger ever to be located in the Chicago area, reports ChicagoBusiness.com.

KW Foods LLC has rights to develop 10 more Fatburgers in the Chicago area. The next one will open in January at 95th and Western Ave. in the Beverly neighborhood, according to a spokeswoman for Santa Monica, Calif.-based burger chain Fatburger Corp.

KW Foods has also chosen a third location, but a lease is not finalized, she said. The Orland Park outlet has yet to set a firm opening date in September." (source)

I've never had FatBurger. Is it good? Hell I would have been geeked at him bringing a Sonic. I LOVE SONIC! It pisses me off we don't have one but their commercials play every 2 seconds on television. Just torture....

LMAO @ Kanye putting these restaurants in the "good neighborhoods." I wonder if his 3rd location is in Englewood. Doubt it!

Both Michelle Obama and Kanye West made Vanity Fair 08 Best Dressed list. They were both picked under the "Internationally Best Dressed" category. I've never really watched Michelle's fashion, but I'm a stan for Kanye and I love how he gets down on the fashion tip, so big ups!

I just need to go shopping with Ye once. Somebody make it happen!

Thanks to Diddy, we will get to see Nelly striped down to some tighty whities or boxers. Diddy picked him to be the model/spokesperson for Sean John underwear line. Well if this ain't the best idea Diddy had in awhile, I don't know what is!

According to Nelly, "I have been a big fan of Diddy and the Sean John clothing line for years,” Nelly told AllHipHop.com in a statement. “So, when they asked me to work with them, it was a real honor. I hope my fans will enjoy this campaign as much as I did shooting it.” <---------NO FEAR NELLY, I WILL ENJOY IT IMMENSELY! TRUST!

Diddy seems pretty confident in his choice as well. He said “I have known Nelly for many years and I really admire his work. To me, Nelly is the quintessential definition of the Sean John man,” Combs elaborated. “He has the attitude, the swagger, and most of all the physique that our customers can both aspire and relate to. And let’s be honest, all of the ladies out there are going to be thanking us for this campaign.”(SOURCE)

Ebony Magazine is paying tribute to our positive, successful men and I am ecstatic! Black Cool will chronicle the lives of 25 black men who have that cool facade or should I say "Swagger." *snickers at JT*

*Drools at Billy D Williams and pumps my fist at Barack*

I truly applaud Ebony for this! Day in and day out, we see our brothers being caught and highlighted for doing ignorant crap, we forget about the ones who make us proud to be black women. Thank God we still have magazines actually putting out quality material worth spending our money on and reading! No need to say any names....it's not enough room in this post for all of them anyway.

Thanks for emailing me this Ginger!

Rihanna is a BAD BISH on the fashion tip. She may have some bad days but when her days are good, they are GOOD!

Do you see the shoes?! Who in the "Shaka Zulu" hell created these masterpieces? I am about to set up a paypal account right now. All of you RED REPORT readers need to deposit some change in there cause I need those. She looks so sexy , yet sophisticated dressed in all black. I can't tell if it's a dress or shorts, but I do know it's hot!

I love her hair. I've been surfing thru blogland and people aren't really feeling the new hairdo. What's wrong with them?

If only she singing game was on point like her fashion. Maybe I would be able to listen to more than 1 minute of her songs.

Landon "The Ham" Brown refuse to let his 15 seconds of fame go. First we had to listen to his bunk ass voice for a season on MTV, now we have to listen to him tell tales we really don't care about.

He's claiming he use to mess with Lindsay Lohan. Why anybody would admit to that is beyond me...she probably was so gone off the drugs and booze she didn't even know who he was. Lame.

He's also saying Whitney was a "Nightmare" stepmother that never accepted him because blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Sorry guys but after the "Nightmare" part I stopped paying attention.

He's following in his father's footsteps precisely. If your talent can't market you, it's always good to sell yourself by talking negative about someone with talent WHOSE ALREADY MADE IT.

Dead and more dead at the fact self taken camera phone pictures came up when I googled his name. SIT DOWN CLOWN!

I excuse Rihanna for her performance costume at the Much Music Awards because she certainly made up for it with this fashion nail.

I can honestly say I love her steez. She is one of the only ones who can mix classy with funky and pull it off. Her haircuts are always so fly. She now has the Halle Berry Strictly Business cut and it totally works for her.

I am so enthralled by her outfit. I mean OMG! Lets see...it's a floor length high waist skirt, that flares at the bottom with a sexy slit up the front. She added a simple black wife beater but enhanced it by a cream belt/gun holster (j/k). I'm loving all of it.

See how much better an outfit is when you don't try to wear all your favorite items at once?
