Usher May Have Been Down But He's Not Out! Plus, Bangladesh, And Willy Northpole Know How To Party Just Check The Pics!

Well I'll be dammed. Look who came out of nowhere to claim the top spot this week on Billboard?
A couple of weeks ago I had questioned the validity of Atlanta pop star Usher's career. After several leaks that didn't catch on like his tracks of the past had I'd assumed that you guys, the fans, were completely turned off by all the singers high-octane antics as of late. But, it seems that you guys aren't over him just yet because "...In This Club" has just claimed the number one spot on Billboard's Hot 100, as well as itunes.
That's a good look right there no matter how you choose to look at it. The track which was produced by well known Atlanta producer, who by the way is a far cry from the buffed image that many of you see on the internet, Polow Da Don. Polow's been eating good y'all a little too good. Anyway the track which was produced by Polow and that features CTE [Coporate Thugz Entertainment] leader Young Jeezy is apparently blazing the radio waves.
The talent coming out of the ATL is just undeniable. Even my hatin ass can't say ish about this.
Either way it's a good look all around.
And, Speaking Of Undeniable Talent...
Saturday night I attended a private party for hit making producer Bangladesh, and Disturbing Tha Peace recording artist, Willy Northpole. The party was held at a private residence in College Park. Now I know I throw grease, although some would say grits, at damn near every hip-hop star from time to time, but I will say one thing, most celebs I run into are usually pretty cool no matter what I write about them. I can’t think of one bad situation I’ve had other then someone snubbing me for an interview request [insert Janet Jackson here]. Maybe it’s because I tower over most and they suddenly realize it’s just not that serious.
Well anyway as previously mentioned Willy NP, Bangladesh, hosted the party. But notable Atlanta natives like Chaka Zulu, Ludacris and Diamond [formerly of Crime Mob] dropped by to show their luv. It seems that Luda has all but forgotten about my inappropriate red carpet antics of the past because as you can see we took a photo together. But Diamond on the other hand is still ticked. I won’t go into detail because first of all it’s petty, and second of all WHO THE HELL CARES ANYMORE? But let’s just see what she does on the solo tip.
But I’m telling you all now there is one dude everybody needs to be checking for in 2008. And that’s none other then Willy Northpole. Don’t let the slightly odd name fool you. I think this kat is about to do something serious in the game. Who would’ve thought that Arizona had viable hip-hop talent? Call me ignorant but the notion never occurred to me. I got an exclusive first look at dude’s new video and I’m telling you now….the ish is HOT! I’m going to set some things up with dude in the coming months so be on the look out in the future.
Check out some exclusive pictures below that you won’t find anywhere else.
Major shout out to celebrity photographer Hannibal Matthews for the exclusive pictures. Y’all be sure to check out his >>>>>website here<<<.
Special shout out to Tiffany, Tahira, Bangladesh, and Willy for allowing me to post the private photos on SOHH Atlanta.
Talk to y'all lata,

...do you ever get tired of hating?
You're trying to mask your hate, by saying "even I can't hate...", and pretending to be on some satirical push, but it doesnt work. You should call the suicide help line for some tips on offing yourself.
no reason to hate son.......Fuck ya in ya Pussy!!!!!!
So apparently all that rappin about Usher's demise was premature?? At least you owned up to it, but then again, consumers are so easy, so it should have been expected.
I'll hate shit ain't no JT killer Sexyback blows this out the water. the white boy took his swag and run with it. usher was never for the dude now he wanna try to appeal to both guy and ladies.
I am not feeling Love in the club likethat but Usher is the man....I think he could have had a stronger first single but his star power alone guarantees him a top spot...the beat is nice though and I know the video is gonna be fiyah so I'm excited
your a idiot if you think polo Da Don Is "Up And Coming" FIRE THIS MAN!!
I know I know I changed it. I already got emails. Damn everybody so damn touchy..LOL. Nah I shouldn't have down played his talents. Thats my badd!
I feel you Gyant!! NorthPole is THE SHIT!! I got an interview dropping soon with him on my site www.raptalk.net..
Arizona got some talent dog!! Northpole, Knawledg, Ripacut, J Beam, Kydos etc.
GYANT YOU ARE A FUCKING RETARD. EVERYTHING THAT COMES FROM YOUR CONVOLUTED CORTEX TO THIS BLOG IS PURE STUPIDITY AT ITS BEST. "hate hate and more hate" is more reputable than you. please, stop regurgitating whatever pops into your sub 70 IQ having mind.
You look like what would happen if Donnovan McNabb and Mo'Nique had a baby...
Hey look! It's the Jolly Gay Giant.

Oh by the way... Keep in mind Luda is 5'4''... Anyways I got some mp3s, Willy Northpole is another "lemme swagger jack East Coast style even though Im from ARIZONA" cat... Tired themes... He's tuff, shoots 1000 people daily if they step on his shoes, and he virtually runs all cocaine delaers in the Northern Hemisphere... ZZZZZZZZZ
Hey, I love the body fitted sports.Welcome to view my crazy hot photos at mixedfriends dot com by searching 'sunnysmile'， I am looking for a hot black man..
ur gay
Atlanta is the shithole of America when it comes to music
Bout time Ush returns, Im tired of listenin to 10 yr old Chris Breezy on the radio all day.
Comment removed By Gyant. You had me until the last sentence bruh. Y'all going to learn to check yourselves with these crazy ass DISRESPECTFUL comments. Even I know how to check myself and not go too far. One more time Big Smoov and I will block your IP address. Its up to you!.
Gyant did u have to post that pic of her on the background? Damn near choked on my puke. Ewww....
Wasn't Willy Northpole riding with G-Unit at first ??? He got linked up working with Hot Rod right ??? Do ya research.....
first off gyant we all fucc up most of us on this website are human plus i doubt these clowns would talk that sh*t to ya face but anyways at the end of the day nobody can predict whats ganna sell all they can do is close their eyes and hope it will if you could predict for a fact what could sell or what wouldnt you would be richer than bill gates, oprah, and all the oil tycoons all together so dont let these internet haters skew your judgement always go wit ya 1st instinct real talk
YO ON THE REAL ALL YALL NIGGAS LOOK REAL GYANT IN THAT PICTURE!!
GAYANT U FAT BASTARD PUT THE TWINKIES DOWN!!
Weren't you the same nigga hatin on Usher theother day? Now you want to give him props cuz he has a number one hit? Now you are all happy he's doing his thing? You are sad and these artist are even sadder for still giving you the time of day...i guess they don't read your blogs until after they meet you, cuz i notice, you never get second interviews.
HAAA, GYANT LOOKS LIKE A GORILLA.
Damn, Feds gonna have to open an investigation into Gyants use of HGH or some shit... Either that, or all rappers are short niggaz...maybe it's a little of both
...Is that gay nigga on the left the producer? Why the fuck these dudes think dressing like a rock star is gonna help them make tight hip hop music? I don't want no genre-bending shit--give me the boom-bap, nigga, or gets to steppin...
...and Willie Pole? Ain't shit changed, cept the name of the town... It's the same formula as all the other shitty acts coming out right now... Why can't dudes rap about anything other than some imaginary swagger? You know dude don't roll that heavy to the mall or shopping for a car. Nigga probably still lives with his mama...
--OG Matt Herbz--
Celebs meet and greet thousands of people everyday and hundreds of writers bad mouth them all the time. Why should they remember some giant fruit?
That dude Willy is gonna be ill this year, I can't wait to see that video. Make sure you get that video poppin up in here Gyant!
www.myspace.com/willynorthpole
Not a hooker? Only God will believe him. Not long ago, I've seen him at the celebrity site millionairecupid...com seeking girls. And he has stayed there for months...
@ DON
Nigga, quit advertising for your stupid site. Nobody sitting on a few mil has to log on to the internet to get some pussy. You got it all wrong. Only a broke ass nigga like yaself would fantasize that your favorite artist is looking for you online. Probably check your inbox every 15 minutes to see if Big Boi wrote you back yet. You the biggest fag here, homeboy...
usher has the whole atlanta on fire with that single in the club
And again, Gyant says something suspect. He can't keep his queer eye off of Polow Da Don's body. Ol' gyant ass nigga.
gyant = new word for gay.
Why is Gyant pointing at that nigga's penis on that second picture? Ol muppet lookin ass nigga!
That nigga willy is nice...rumor his big single is with ne-yo...I read a few interviews on this nigga been puttin it down for a minute for that lil southwest area...the 4 corners I guess.. I know cannon said he's doin a mixtape with as we speak so we gonna really see what it is..
Gyant, I am actually happy that for once, there is a site where we can interact w/ the creators, bloggers, etc.... I posted comments in the past asking why dont you exercise your right and ban these fools w/ these reckless comments... And someone finally took my words to heart, even though you probably already considered it and implemented it... But im not gonna lie though.... Some of these comments are f****** hilarious, especially the ones about u...> Hell im laughing right now at the "Gyant = New word for Gay" post .... keep it coming and clean it up so we can have a smooth experience... I wish Houston had a good one...
lol @ gyants wrinkled levi jeans, damn u a corny looking niggga
Feeling the Ush song and it's off the hizzaaay! Enuf said.
