I've been seeing John Legend pop up all over the place. Just yesterday he performed "Heaven" on "Ellen," when it hit me.
This guy is sohh choreographed. He grabs the mic at the same point each time in the song, he looks to the audience at the same time. It kind of reminds me of when you go to a Janet Jackson concert and when it's time to perform her 'ballad,' "Again" from the Janet CD and she cries during the same point of the song each time. I saw that tour about three times and it never failed. Same with John.
We've mentioned before how he is consistent to a fault. The album is good ... damn good. It's bonafide to be exact but can someone give this nigga an extasy pill or a double shot of Henny before he hits the stage?
He was even tight with Ellen. Maybe he couldn't loosen up during the interview because she is gay. And he is not quite gay, but just kinda geigh.
Oooh pictures from the World Music Awards....
SOHH Chris Brown performed "Thriller" and not Michael. Great, but bummer. For more pics head over to Juicy News.
Check out this video shot from the crowd, Chris sounds great vocally.
Shout out to Dig for video. The funny thing is, you'll sit and watch it all the way through because "Thriller" is just that song. All these years later it still gets you amp'd. Don't front! This must have been Chris Brown's dream.
But while you were wondering where Kanye is and if he is still peeved at John for not taking his advice by making "Heaven" the first release we were staring at this:
and compiling our
5. Levert - "Cassanova"
This was the first time I ever heard the name Levert. My mom use to run this track. R.I.P. Gerald!
(shoulder pads and all)
4. Fantasia - "Hood Boy"
I saw Fantasia last night. I've witnessed the hysteria. I'm a fan now.
3. Shareefa - "Butterfly"
2. John Legend - "Again"
Track #8 on the cd. GRAMMY, GRAMMY, GRAMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1. Jay & Bey - "Hollywood"
Me 1st!
Soulman you know i am stalking you today...lol
They played Hood Boi on the radio this morning..."that's that shit!"
Hey SoHH Soulman,
Haven't been here in a min. but I wanted to tell you I saw John Legend and Robin Thicke in concert last week and they were both excellent live. Robin Thicke has great stage presence and a lot of energy and his voice sounds great live. John Legend sounds great live too, I thought he had pretty good stage presence. Anyway, just wanted to say what's up!
I like John Legend, I heard that he has a nice cd. I heard that the fans booed rihanna and chris brown.
Good morning...
I'm not liking the new Fantasia. I do like "When I See U" much better.
My Top 5
1. Dreamin - Usher
2. With U - Janet
3. Crying Out For Me - Mario
4. Glamorous - Fergie
5. Ask Myself - Robin Thicke
Top 5 Soulful:
5. John Legend - PDA (2 weeks)
4. Chris Brown - Poppin
3. MJB - If I Don't Love You This Way
2. Ciara - Promise
1. Fantasia - Hood Boi
Yeah John is real robotic but he CD is one of the BEST I have heard this year! The shit just flows from one song to the other!
Did I not tell you about Fantasia? Live - she is something serious. She is going to be around a long time!
Tell her that when I drop about 15lbs - I can be the body double for sho - send me an application :-)
Soulman you know i am stalking you today...lol

Im such a retard when it comes to Mike, I dont care what nobody says, I love that man, LOL.
That being said....
"Holla if ya like kenwood high

John Legends cd is definately fire even if he is choreographed...
Eh, my top 5 is the same as last week...:)
Oh...and TIP murdered his set.
The look on Baby and Wayne's faces when B.G. Was up there clean and sober killin the Top Back Remix was PRICELESS.
The Snoop performance was hot, but it needed Pissy to bring it home.

Wood Harris and Ildris Elba - uuuummmm good - now that's 3some material - all the focus on ME of course - :-)

Yeah, I thought that too. They did show Jay when Game said no Beef w/ 50 no beef w/ Jay and Hov gave the nod of approval...several of those moments made it decent.
Kudos to the director.
But at the end of the day it was done on a 2 day delay, so plenty of time to show different people's reactions.
And I think the only reason they did that shit is because of past hip hop awards having shit happen, niggas needed time to edit.

Why did UNK end the show and he has the worst song of 2006?
What the hell was Jeezy thinking puttin' strippers on the stage...my daughter was watching for god sakes!
Who the hell told Jim Jones and Juelz those tight ass jeans and shirts looked hot on them?
