THE NU-NU...W.H.I.P...MONDAY 6-7...WEDNESDAY 3-4

OMG... So how about this whole Diddy and Cassie thing?????

2008-05-19T20:44:00.000-04:00

Watup everybody!
Its ya gurl Boogie from the NuNu, and as promised,you know that your girls are going to keep you updated with all the latest in Celebrity gossip...

Ok so for starters, tell me why I always thought that Diddy was gonna finally get settled with his baby mother Kim, but it seems that he is soon going to be locking it down with R&B singer( signed to bad boy) Cassie! Now wait a minute, I heard about the two before but i didnt think that the rumors were true, but here is what our friends at mediatakeout.com had to say...

Holy guacamole ... could hip hop's biggest bachelor be set to tie the knot. MediaTakeOut.com just spoke with one of our Bad Boy insiders who claims that Diddy has commissioned Jacob the Jeweler to create a 40 Carat diamond ring for his girlfriend (and Bad Boy artist) Cassie.According to our source, the ring - which will have a 25 carat center diamond and 15 carats worth of baguettes will be Jacob's masterpiece. The insider told MediaTakeOut.com, "Diddy is working hand in hand with Jacob to make sure it'll be perfect .. and he needs it done by August 31st - the day of his 10th Annual White Party in the Hamptons." Why then, you ask? 'Cause according to MediaTakeOut.com's snitch - that's the day Diddy is said to be "presenting" the ring to Cassie.The insider wouldn't go as far as to confirm to MediaTakeOut.com that the ring's an engagement ring

ok so yall think about it....and let me know what yall think..cuz shoooottt i dont kno...loll

Leona Lewis...y/n?

2008-04-30T16:06:00.000-04:00

What's up guys, it's Danielle aka BABY D from the Nu-Nu...A couple weeks ago, me and bri and asia were talking about the new r&b singer from the UK, winner of the X-factor TV show in England :Leona Lewis..she was discovered by simon cowell basically. she has the hit song "bleeding love" and overall her cd is great IMO.

i like her. i just think she lacks personality. she needs to be more energetic or something when she's on stage performing.

but we all have mixed opinions on her. the real question is...

what do YOU think of Leona Lewis?

(one of my favorite songs from Leona, her next single "better in time")

do you think she's a rip-off of Mariah Carey or does she offer something new?

Here's Mariah's take on Leona: The chart-topping singer insists she "didn't really hear any similarity" between Leona's music and her own, and claims there will never be a "new" Mariah.

She said: "Honestly, there has been so many, 'This is the new her,' and I'm like, 'Okay, show me the new her. Can she come and work for me and be my double?' "And I'm not particular talking about this girl Leona, because I only heard her once and I didn't really hear a true similarity, particularly in the style of music.

"It is what it is and critics have compared me to so many people who are not really singers, and they're certainly not writers."

Ashanti and Nelly....

2008-04-30T00:02:00.000-04:00

Is Ashanti's new album "The Declaration" telling it all about her relationship with Nelly?????

Watup Watup Watup!!!!! Its your girl Boogie and I was talking to my girls the other day ( shoutout to the Princess B and Baby D!) when we got on the topic about Dani watching the Ashanti "The Way that I Love You" video. Come to find out, Bri says that she heard that Ashanti wrote the song about her and her man Nelly... and supposedly her whole new album " The Declaration" is airing out the whole 411 on their realtionship ...Here's what our friends at Mediatakeout.com had to say....

Looks like Ashanti may be ready to open up about what went down between her and rapper Nelly. MediaTakeOut.com has exclusively learned that in upcoming interviews, Ashanti is expected to directly discuss her relationship with Nelly - and how it made its way into the lyrics on her new album The Declaration.

We spoke with a person from Ashanti's camp - and according to them Ashanti's looking to come clean about everything. The insider told MediaTakeOut.com, "Ashanti's been very guarded in the way she discusses her personal life - and I think that's hurt her. In her new album [The Declaration] she's not afraid to open up and let fans into her life."

And we asked directly whether Ashanti's new song The Way That I Love You was . The insider told us directly - "Yes!!" Here are some of the lyrics to the song:

After all of these times that we've tried
I found out we were living a lie
And after all of this love that we made
I know now you don't love me the same

The way that I love (The way that I love you)
The way that I love (The way that I love you)
The way that I love (The way that I love you)

I woke up kinda early today
And something told me from that moment
It wouldn't be the same
It felt like you were hiding something
But I didn't push it
I didn't complain or say nothin
I tried to act like I didn't see it
Cause deep down I knew I didn't want to believe it

But there it was, it was you and her
You left your sidekick on the nightstand
And I read

Everything you did, and everything you said and
And now I'm standing here looking like damn..
I thought it was you and I
Now all I got to say is why?

BUT ACCORDING TO PEOPLE MAGAZINE...

Ashanti says, "It's not!" She explains, "I wrote that record last summer ... The song is just about real life. It's for every woman who has gone through it."

BUT WHO KNOWS, COULD SHE BE COVERING IT UP...OR ARE PEOPLE JUST TRYING TO STIR UP TROUBLE...KEEP CHECKING UP FOR AN UPDAT AND REMEMBER TO LISTEN TO YOUR GIRLS THIS FRIDAY AT 4 FOR MORE JUICE....

LATA YALL!!!

CIARA at TEMPLE UNIVERSITY!

2008-04-21T20:00:00.000-04:00

On Sunday, Ciara was at our very own Temple University for the 2008 National Hip-Hop Team Vote Launch! The hosts of the NuNu are personally a little upset they were not notified. Hopefully, we are definitely looking forward to Ciara's upcoming third studio album is scheduled for release this summer.

According to lovebscott.com, "You also might be able to catch Ciara and Ludacris this Thursday, April 24th, while they exclusively shop at the Ralph Lauren store at the Lenox Square Mall in Atlanta."

------

strange. random. who was the one to tell her, "okay, ciara, so on thursday you're going to go shop at ralph lauren, exclusively. ludacris is coming too. he needs to grab a few polos. maybe some boxer shorts."

enough for today... this is the princess b, signing off.

because i love her.

2008-04-21T14:22:00.000-04:00

what's up - - it is the princess B, princess of the music kingdom... obviously. hitting up the NUNU blog right quick... can we just take a moment to discuss two ridiculously underrated projects in music?

two albums. one artist.

BECAUSE I LOVE IT - - amerie.
download... "paint me over", "that's what u r (remix feat. fabolous & slim thug)", "crush", "take control"

TOUCH - - amerie.
download... "not the only one", "rollin' down my face", "all i need", "can we go (feat. carl thomas)", "falling", "give my love to you"... and of course the singles "touch", "1 thing", & "talkin' 'bout"

amerie has this beautiful feminine aggression in her vocals that is addicting. i don't understand why she never receives the appreciation that she truly deserves. how did these two albums get so overlooked? sure, TOUCH received some publicity, however amerie as a whole does not receive not nearly enough. and BECAUSE I LOVE IT was not even released in the U.S. and culminated in amerie being dropped from her label. she has incredible vocal ability, impeccable style and sass, and she is the only person who does go-go better than beyonce ("crazy in love" vs. "talkin' 'bout," "one thing," & "love's off the chain?") what's even crazier is how EASY it would be to market this absolutely stunning woman, whose features are damn near perfect and who also possesses one of the most sultry gazes in the music industry.

but really, i couldn't put it any better than this 2007 article from NewsOK:

We need a sustained improvement in the industry's celebration and promotion of great talent. Excellent music was made in 2007, and most of it was barely heard. I'm not even talking about the music that is difficult to absorb, such as M.I.A.'s "Kala.” Instead, let's talk about the best R&B record that U.S. audiences could not hear in 2007 without paying $30 for an import: Amerie's "Because I Love It.”

For those who loved the singer's 2005 hit, "1 Thing,” a song that evoked classic "go-go” dance rave-ups while riding a Supremes-style melody on top of a drum sample from the Meters, "Because I Love It” was pure manna from heaven. The horns were wilder, the rhythms were organic, Amerie sings her heart out on the disc, and her overseas single, "Gotta Work,” was a killer. Furthermore, and not to be crass about it, but Amerie is, shall we say, extremely marketable? But her label, Sony, delayed the stateside release of "Because I Love It.” Then it was delayed some more. Then EW.com released a list last week of artists who were either dropped from major labels or jumped willingly. Amerie was near the top of the list.

If you cannot market Amerie, you probably couldn't sell ice in Ecuador.

Beyonce...bitter? 50...gangsta?

2008-04-19T21:24:00.000-04:00

Hey guys, it's Baby D (Danielle) from the Nu-Nu..i have a couple updates for you guys on a few stories that we discussed on yesterday's show.

First of all, according to one of our fav. sources, mediatakeout.com, Beyonce is upset with Michelle and Kelly for leaking details of her and Jay's wedding.

an insider is claiming that beyonce thinks michelle and kelly tipped off the paparazzi about the wedding when they created a video and posted it on youtube the day before the wedding. Kelly took it down after 2 hours..

"Before Kelly and Michelle made that video - the wedding was just some blog rumor ... But after [the video] there was a media frenzy"

the insider also claims that Beyonce's relationship with Kelly and Michelle will probably never be the same after this and that Beyonce was not pleased with how her wedding turned out.

what do you guys think??? Is B overreacting??

What i dont get is if this is true, how Beyonce can point fingers at just those two when people have been speculating about the wedding forever now. especially after they got the license and when everyone started connecting their obsession with the number 4.

In another update, after Alicia cleared up her comments about gangsta rap, 50 cent decides to open his big mouth about our girl.

here's what he said in an interview (according to mediatakeout.com) “I don’t like Alicia Keys no more. If she thinks what they consider gangsta music is [made] to bring black people down then I think my sh*t falls into that category. I don’t like people who don’t like me. I don’t like her then because that’s what provides the life for me."

HOLD UP-- did 50 just say his music is GANGSTA?

yeah. that's what i thought.

Moving on....
