The Constant Spring Police in Jamaica have confirmed that their investigators have received a statement from the management team of Faith 'Barbee' Jackson-Eselebor regarding a telephone death threat issued on the life of the young singer two weeks ago.

I have received a statement, the report has been written and will be submitted to Inspector Jones," Corporal B. Robinson of the Constant Spring police in St. Andrew, told a One876Entertainment.com reporter today.

The report will also be submitted to the Special Branch for investigations to be initiated.

In the meantime, Barbee's security detail has been beefed up to handle the threat.

"Based on the incident that took place in Tawes Pen where a member of a gang was approached to throw Barbee out of a dance there, we are not taking any chances," publicist Ray Alexander of Khool Booking said.

In the meantime, Barbee is still in New York, auditioning dancers for her upcoming Paddy Cake video with Beenie Man.

"She has auditioned over 300 dancers for the video shoot so far, trying to get the right mix of talent for the production," Mr. Alexander said.

Kanye West is worried people think he is gay.

The hip-hop star admits he has "feminine ways" but now realises they helped make him a success.

Kanye told Britain's GQ magazine: "What if your drawbacks ended up being your superpower? I've always had an issue with masculinity. I'm like, 'I hope this person isn't looking at me like I'm a fag.'

"I do have feminine ways. Maybe I'm not the guy who kicks off a fight in a club. Now I'm 30 I've accepted that. Because of that I ended up having a number one album - people are tired of that.

"I've realised everything I'm not made me everything I am."

Kanye also revealed he once had a close encounter with a drunken fan in the toilet.

He said: "I was in a club taking a ps and this guy was making comments like, 'Mr. East!', just drunk and acting stupid, and he slaps me on the back to get my attention. And I told him, 'Look, I don't feel comfortable holding my dk with another man's hand on me. Unless you want me to turn around in the middle of this.'"

The MTV Video Music Awards began with the back of Britney Spears' head. The performance that followed was not much more inspiring.

Spears kicked off the VMAs Sunday night with the much-anticipated premiere performance of her new single, "Gimme More" which the singer hoped was the feeling felt by her legions of fans, many of whom have grown bewildered by her increasingly bizarre behavior.

Spears soon turned around to reveal herself clad in a sparkly black and white bikini and black boots. Not as fit as she was in her "...Baby One More Time" days, Spears still had the look of the young pop star though notably aged by motherhood and endless tabloid tension.

This was Spears' first step on the comeback trail, which will peak when her album comes out in November. Surrounded by a few dozen backup dancers several of whom gyrated on poles Spears seemed to feel the pressure.

She appeared to have lost her ability to hide her lip-synching. Playing it safe, she generally kept the dance moves simple and free of any potentially damaging mistakes. The tentative performance failed to cause the sensation that Spears managed with her famous lip-lock with Madonna in 2003, her last appearance at the VMAs.

She concluded: "I just want more." The question is: do her fans?

Host Sarah Silverman saw a punch line and jumped at the opportunity. She opened her monologue with the backhanded compliment that Spears, at 25, had already accomplished in her life everything she ever will.

For MTV, it was an awkward start to the VMAs, providing neither a memorably good nor infamously weird opening. Spears' desperation wasn't entirely separate from MTV's, which gambled by giving Spears top billing. Hoping to reverse dwindling ratings, the network moved the award show to the Palms Casino and Hotel in Las Vegas this year.

RIETI, Italy (AP) -- Asafa Powell bettered his world record in the 100 meters Sunday, running 9.74 seconds at the Rieti Grand Prix.

The Jamaican set the mark in the second of two heats to reach the 100 final

"That's what happens when I start to listen to the coach," said Powell, who appeared to ease up before the finish line.

Powell lowered the mark by 0.03 seconds, having run 9.77 three times despite never winning a major competition.

"It's just to remind my fans that Asafa Powell is still here," Powell said. "I made a couple of mistakes and I corrected them."

The heat was run with a strong tail wind, but it was below the maximum allowed by track and field's governing body, making the record valid.

In the final, Powell won in 9.78. Michael Frater of Jamaica was second in 10.03, followed by Jaysuma Saidy Ndure of Norway in 10.10.

In the heat, Ndure was second to Powell in 10.07, and Kim Collins of St. Kitts and Nevis was third in 10.14.

After the final, the Jamaican celebrated amid a crowd of photographers on the field of Raul Guidobaldi Stadium, throwing a bouquet of flowers into the stands.

"Me and my coach have been working to getting myself back to normal," Powell added. "I came here today and I executed properly and did what I was supposed to do."

Powell finished third in the 100 last month at the world athletics championships in Osaka, Japan. Rieti is known for a fast track on which six middle-distance world records have been set. Powell said he was attracted by the quick track as he sought to bounce back from his disappointing performance at the worlds.

"It's a very fast track. I love this track. It's very bouncy," said Powell, who trains in Italy three months of the year. "Italy is a good place for me. It's my second home."

Powell first set the world record of 9.77 in June 2005 in Athens, Greece. Justin Gatlin matched the time in May 2006, but the American faces a suspension of up to eight years following a positive doping test for testosterone and other steroids at the Kansas Relays a month earlier.

In June 2006, Powell again ran 9.77, and then did it a third time in August 2006.

But despite the fast times, Powell has struggled at major competitions, missing a medal at the 2004 Athens Olympics. At the worlds, he finished behind gold medalist Tyson Gay and Derrick Atkins, running 9.96. The bronze was Powell's first major medal.

LAS VEGAS - Sour grapes from Kanye West again. Shut out at the Video Music Awards, Kanye West threw a tantrum Sunday night in front of media and crew backstage as the MTV show was ending.

West, waiting for an elevator in a crowded hallway, began yelling about losing all five categories for which he was nominated.

"That's two years in a row, man ... give a black man a chance," West said, stomping around his entourage and directing his comments at a reporter. "I'm trying hard man, I have the ... number one record, man."

West said he never will return to MTV.

The rapper was nomination for five awards, including male artist of the year. This is the latest in a series of awards show outburst for West. Last year, he crashed the stage at the MTV Europe Awards after not winning for best video.

Former dancehall queen and popular dancer, Mad Michelle, has come out and expressed her disgust at what she describes as malicious rumours that have been circulating in dancehall circles about her.

Mad Michelle, whose real name is Ann-Marie McKoy, says there is a rumour going around that she is involved with dancehall selector Fire Links, but according to her, "Him (Fire Links) neva eva step to me dem way deh. Di most him wi come to mi an sey is gi mi yuh fren nuh."

But life has become almost unbearable since that rumour started, Mad Michelle said, that it has caused her to get into a physical altercation with her partner, Harry Toddler.

"Everybody in Jaamaica and all over the world know that Toddler and Mad Michelle is together, we're together like for five years now, from 2003 when I got Dancehall Queen. Now, because of the rumour, me an Harry Toddler had an altercation pertaining to the whole thing about Fire Links an di argument became physical, we had a fight. People been telling him that Mad Michelle have dis yah man an dat an nutt'n nuh guh suh," Mad Michelle said.

Domestic dispute

In the heat of their domestic dispute, Mad Michelle says things were said that have hurt her feelings. The argument between the two apparently got so bad that Mad Michelle is now advising other female dancers to stay away from relationships with persons in their profession.

"Mi a advise the dancehall queen dem, don't tek up no artiste, selecta, nobody inna di same profession - right yah now mi heart full, mi feel like mi woulda stop dance an all lef Jamaica. Why me haffi tek up a man an show him all my love an now him turn roun an a mek all dem tings yah a happen to mi? Sometime yuh haffi jus leave some man to dem conscience," Mad Michelle said.

Mad Michelle, who says she turned 25 years old last June, says her career is still doing well as "I'm just coming off a tour from places like Montreal, Martinique and Cayman and I'm booked from now until September, October. I'm also working on a new dance song to be released in the next two months or so, but a just to sort out certain things."

Efforts to reach Harry Toddler for a comment were unsuccessful

Well today is my bday and i havent anything in the mail or by courier from anyone in here, im giving ya'll until 5, which is when i leave for home or else... somebody gonna get a hurt real bad, im not saying who it is but im sure alot of you guy here know them very well.

Artistes inspire their listeners through their music, but it is few of them who inspire through their actions. Having aspired to higher education, deejays Tanya Stephens and Jeffrey Campbell, aka Assassin, are opening the eyes of others to the value of education.

In a time when some entertainers are involved in somewhat shady deals, lyrical warfare and a fast and loose lifestyle, it is not common to find an artiste with their head firmly in place. In 2006, Assassin was awarded a scholarship to study by Resource Development International (RDI) to pursue a degree online and this year, Tanya Stephens was awarded the same scholarship.

Both deejays are studying at the University of Sunderland in England, where they pursue degrees in Business Management through Internet-based classes. However, the likelihood that both scholarships (which are offered to one recipient each year) should be awarded to entertainers is a coincidence says Aldain Reid, regional director of RDI, North Caribbean.
 

The RDI is the world's largest independent provider of UK university distance learning education. According to Reid, RDI is a marketing firm that provides opportunities for students to study abroad. The programmes focus on management, information technology and education and azal institution, RDI looks for non-traditional students to promote the programme and inspire others. In Assassin and Tanya Stephens they found two intelligent public figures who have the potential to do just that.

Scholarship recipients have to qualify for entry academically in the first place.

However, seeing that it is likely both entertainers could easily afford to study on their own, the question is always asked why were they chosen? According to Reid, "we came up with the scholarship to expose as wide cross-section as possible to opportunities of higher learning. We looked for persons who were excelling in whatever field they are in, people who others know about. Persons who were looking to study might be inspired by these persons. So far Jeffrey (Assassin) is doing very well. I think he has shown people that if Assassin shows the need to go back to school than maybe there something there for me too. He has been so good, going around to schools and talking to kids".
 

However Reid emphasises that it is not a reggae scholarship; both persons were chosen and given the chance to accept or decline and both accepted. Reid testifies that having the two as recipients of the scholarship has sparked more interest in the programme by the general public.

Both entertainers are also ecstactic for the opportunity. In a previous article entitled 'Tanya Stephens thankful for scholarship', Stephens said "I have tried to apply to many places and I have been told that I have to be there 90 per cent of the time. And 10 per cent can't pay for the course".

She said that the set-up was ideal for "not just artiste, but people who have to hustle and not just sit out at the airport waiting for people like me. I have already begun to work. I enjoy a good challenge and I have already begun to rise to it. If you think local artiste stupid try come do some business with we. We shrewd. We a formalise what we know. This is a good step for artistes, good step for our culture, good step as role models".

Assassin has also been a standard bearer in promoting higher learning, telling the press that having a degree will not affect his street credibility but he is flattered to be offered the opportunity. At the end of his first year, he is top of his class

A Manchester farmer died Wednesday in the Percy Junor Hospital after he had ingested a weedkiller following the destruction of his house by Hurricane Dean last Sunday. Dead is Alvin Pusey, a 62-year-old man of Contrivance district in the outskirts of Walderston. Reports are that Pusey's concrete and timber house lost its roof during Hurricane Ivan in 2004. He then threatened that if his house was damaged by 'Dean', he would drink Gramo-zone, a weedkiller. Weedicide His house lost its roof again in Hurricane Dean, after which Pusey drank the deadly substance the following Tuesday and was admitted to the hospital, where he died.

Shaquille O'Neal has filed to divorce his wife after nearly five years of marriage, his attorney said Tuesday night.

Attorney Ira Elegant said the petition was filed on behalf of the Miami Heat center in Miami-Dade Circuit Court on Tuesday. It was not immediately clear who is representing Shaunie O'Neal in the case.

The Heat did not have an immediate comment, and Shaquille O'Neal did not respond to a request for comment made through the team.

According to the filing, which was first reported by The Miami Herald on its Web site Tuesday night, Shaquille O'Neal is asking Shaunie O'Neal to provide a "correct accounting of all money, funds, stocks, bonds, and other securities" that she had access to or obtained during the marriage.

They are the parents of six children; Shaquille and Shaunie O'Neal had four together, and each had one other before their Dec. 26, 2002, wedding.

Shaquille O'Neal makes $20 million annually in his contract with the Heat, plus endorsement deals that are estimated to be worth several million more each year. The couple has also listed their home on Miami Beach's posh Star Island for about $32 million, or roughly $13 million more than they paid for it after O'Neal was traded to the Heat by the Los Angeles Lakers before the 2004-05 season.

Luciano Pavarotti, whose vibrant high C's and ebullient showmanship made him the most beloved and celebrated tenor since Caruso and one of the few opera singers to win crossover fame as a popular superstar, died Thursday. He was 71.

His manager, Terri Robson, told the AP in an e-mailed statement that Pavarotti died at his home in Modena, Italy, at 5 a.m. local time. Pavarotti had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year and underwent further treatment in August.

"The Maestro fought a long, tough battle against the pancreatic cancer which eventually took his life. In fitting with the approach that characterised his life and work, he remained positive until finally succumbing to the last stages of his illness," the statement said.

Shift in results - 32: JLP 28: PNP


Labour party (JLP) supporters celebrate the party's victory in Monday's general election during a tour of sections of Central St. Catherine, by the party's winning candidate, Olivia 'Babsy' Grange. Ms. Grange travelled through several areas of her constituency, including Homestead, St. John's Road, Old Harbour Road, and on to Tawes Pen, where she addressed hundreds of her supporters who turned up to welcome her. - Ian Allen/Staff Photographer jamaica

The People's National Party (PNP) last night conceded defeat in Monday's general election, but maintained it would reserve its right to challengethe results of some seats once the final counts are made public.

At the same time, the Electoral Office of Jamaica (EOJ) said yesterday that the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) has picked up an additional seat, moving the preliminary count to JLP: 32, PNP: 28. The South St. James constituency first declared for the PNP's Derrick Kellier later went to the JLP's Noel Donaldson.

Constitutional issues

In a statement, PNP president and outgoing Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller stressed that a determination of the "constitutional issues" by the court, as well as the final count in all seats could still have a bearing on the outcome of the election.

She, however, added: "The People's National Party accepts the announced preliminary results, while reserving all legal rights under the Jamaican constitution and our electoral laws."

Mrs. Simpson Miller had come in for bitter criticism from some quarters after declaring Monday night that her party would not immediately concede defeat, claiming there were incidents of voter intimidation and criminality that led to the preliminary results.

However, in her statement last night, she said: "The People's National Party, as part of its highest traditions, respects and will always respect the voice of the Jamaican people and their will as expressed in the vote."

The PNP president's statement suggested the party may still pursue legal challenges against the eligibility of at least four JLP candidates who were elected at the polls. The PNP has claimed these persons have pledged allegiance or obedience to foreign countries and, under the Constitution, do not qualify to sit in Parliament.

Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) General Secretary Karl Samuda told The Gleaner last night that it was unfortunate Mrs. Simpson Miller had to "qualify" her concession statement.

Fast-track results

Yesterday, returning officers and candidates of the 60 constituencies islandwide were asked to 'burn the midnight oil' to count election ballots, in an attempt to fast-track the final results from the polls.

According to Director of Elections Danville Walker, the results may now be released tonight, instead of tomorrow as first suggested by the EOJ.

Mr. Walker said he had recommended that returning officers and the 60 candidates put in place the necessary arrangements to work late Tuesday night to "be able to finish this count as quickly as possible".

Several calls were made to The Gleaner's newsroom yesterday from persons in constituencies where the results in the general elections were marginal. The callers suggested there was growing tension in their respective constituencies as a result of unconfirmed reports about the results of the recounts.

There were also reported incidents of clashes between PNP and Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) supporters in the Clarendon north West constituency. Roadblocks were mounted in Bull Bay, St. Thomas, reportedly by political thugs. The police however cleared the blockade.

Four Britney Spears songs have recently leaked. They are; "Been A While", "Got Me High", "Your" and "Everybody". It's not totally clear yet if they're indeed new or songs she recorded time ago.

"The new Britney tracks that leaked today (except Everybody) all appeared on a demo CD that was recorded in 2005 for The Original Doll album. Because the songs won't be used, Jive records decided to send them to different sources so they'd leak them and this way, make good promotion for Brit's new album by giving a preview of the new sound she's going for and to also give fans something to listen to until the new record is out. About 18 more demos are said to become available throughout the week"

Britney's new album is due out on November 13th.

They want Sean Kingston's mega hit "Beautiful Girl" to be cut from radio play lists! Yes, Joan Murphy, chairman of the New Mexico Suicide Prevention Coalition, while addressing reporters, protested that, "Record companies that promote artists whose message is that suicide is an acceptable solution to problems, don't help reduce the incidence of suicide anywhere. Radio stations have a responsibility to be sensitive to this issue."

A member of staff at the state Department of Health said local radio stations were e-mailed letters reminding them of the dangers of glorifying suicide in song. "I haven't received any response," Murphy said Monday, a week after the letters were sent out.

"Beautiful Girls" reached the No. 2 spot on the national Top 40 play list. It has dropped in popularity but is still in the top 10, said Justin Riley, program director at KKOB-FM (93.3).

The station had the song in heavy rotation, playing it about 30 times a week, he said. It is now being played far less - a reflection of ever-changing listener taste. Riley said he received no e-mail from any person or organization complaining about the content of the song.

"These kinds of issues come up from time to time," he said. "Somebody could find something wrong with nearly every song that gets played. We are a mass appeal radio station and have a lot of factors to consider."

"We apologize to any person who gets offended by any song, but at the end of the day if a song is popular it's likely going to get played. A song doesn't become No. 2 in the country without people calling to request it."

The Suicide Prevention Coalition works with the Department of Health. "Our mission is suicide prevention," Murphy said, adding, "We provide education, support and advocacy to reduce the suicide rate in New Mexico." Murphy said suicide is the 11th leading cause of death in the country and the leading cause among people age 10 to 24.

New Mexico consistently ranks among the top five states per capital in suicides, with a rate 1.5 to 2 times higher than the national average. Suicide is the ninth leading cause of death for New Mexicans. Darleene Edwards, vice chairperson and treasurer of the coalition, said New Mexico is also "the lowest state in the country for the amount we spend on mental health care."

Her message to everyone involved in the media - the recording and movie industries, radio and television stations and newspapers is to "use the issue of suicide in a responsible manner and not glorify it and make people think it's the best option for people when they're in pain or when their life isn't going as they like.

"Suicide should be portrayed as the tragedy it is," she said.

David Blaine began his career by bringing street magic to the public, performing card tricks and illusions such as levitation or bringing dead flies back to life.

His first television appearance was on Conan O'Brien, where he also performed card tricks, and promoted his Street Magic special. He used a small camera crew to record his act live in front of everyday people providing the basis for his television specials, David Blaine: Street Magic and David Blaine: Magic Man. His first television special, David Blaine: Street Magic influenced the way magic is performed and portrayed on television. With its strong focus on spectators' reactions and showmanship, Blaine entertained unsuspecting pedestrians without the use of the typical magic props used by other magicians.

His most famous stunts include Buried Alive(April 5, 1999)NYC, Frozen in Time (November 27, 2000)NYC,Vertigo (22 May 2002)NYC, Above the Below (September 5, 2003)London,Drowned Alive (May 1, 2006)NYC, Revolution(November 19, 2006)NYC.

Well, Dave Chapelle did a show in Atlanta this weekend and he spoke about walking away from 50 million dollars over at Comedy Central.

He said: "Once you get to the big money you meet the real white people."

"The money was in a big pile and then a dude stood over it, unzipped his pants, let his dick out and looked at me."

Beenie Man spotted in New York with Barbee

Jamaican dancehall artiste, Beenie Man was spotted in New York last night with singer, Barbee at the Cue Lounge in the Bronx.

A source told One876Entertainment.com that they spotted the two in the VIP section of the venue signing autographs, meeting and greeting fans and posing for photographs. Though Beenie Man has appeared in local television denying rumours that they are a couple, that has not quelled such rumours.

"They (Beenie Man and Barbee) looked like a couple, they were dancing and talking closely in a dark area in the VIP room." the source said.

Beenie Man's marriage with Michelle 'D'Angel' Downer-Davis is on the rocks and according to him, is not too far from divorce. He accused his wife of being unfaithful with a 'friend' of his who resides in New York.

The allegations became public and became a media frenzy when a local newspaper publish a photo of the two (Beenie Man and Barbee) at the Red Stripe Reggae Sumfest embracing each other while enjoying the performances of the night.

Beenie Man celebrated his birthday a few days ago which was also his one year wedding anniversary.

The antics of a local drag queen and his gay friends has become the latest subject of public outcry after photos taken at a birthday party in St. Catherine hit the Internet recently. The STAR has learnt that the popular drag queen, Carla, who is also from an address in the parish, celebrated his birthday at a party on June 10 and that photos intended to be shared among friends were instead issued to persons outside their immediate circle. The photos, which capture party scenes, show the drag queen cutting a cake with a husky tattooed male companion, whom he kisses and hugs intimately. During one of the kisses, the cross-dresser's hot pink dress rides up, revealing his penis. The event seemed quite a fashionable affair and rivalled the trends of young female fashionistas. Young men, many of them teenagers, wore wigs, make-up and tube tops, tight-fitting jeans, bustier, stilettos, clutch purses and fine jewellery. "The whole thing is so shocking. Me all see people who me know and me never know say dem into dem nastiness deh. God know, it really look bad," said a man who called THE STAR to voice his disgust. "An de yout dem so young. Is like dem a bring in de likkle yout dem into it." When contacted Carla told The STAR: "I am very concerned about the photos. I do not know how they got out." "They were taken by a friend and sent to other friends and I do not know how they are all over the place now," he stated. Carla said that since the exposure, two men who were snapped at the party have lost their jobs. "They are persons who are in the pictures who are working and they are already feeling the effects. People are being recognised. I know of two people who have already lost their jobs." "I am not too worried about myself. I am scared about the other people. My family knows all about me and the things I do but there are some guys in the pictures who live in garrisons, things could get bad." The 24-year-old who is not employed says that he is able to convincingly dress and behave like a woman and had been doing so for years. "I have been doing it for about four to five years now and I go to major shows and parties as a woman. The guys that go after me are the thug type. They are the ones who like me." Name changed

Check out this platinum watch from Swiss timepiece-maker Ulysse Nardin, a one of a kind (or rather, 99 of a kind) gem that gives you a UFO's-eye view of the Earthall for the bargain price of $100,000. No, it's not encrusted with jewels and it doesn't do Bluetooth, but the Tellurium J. Kepler Limited Edition watch (only 99 were made) has something you won't find on your everyday Timex: a rotating representation of the globe as it might be seen from above the North Pole, complete with a flexible spring representing the terminator between day and night, plus a perpetual calendar that makes a complete rotation once a year. Oh, and it's water resistant to 30 meters, although I'm not sure how the leather wrist strap will handle salt water.

What a way Norris Man persistent! The man cause two riot at St. Mary Mi Come From when an army of bobos descended on him and beat him to a pulp after he told Sizzla to 'suck his madda' while both of them were onstage.

Norris Man had been performing an extended set when Sizzla walked on and began to perform. He told Norris Man to leave the stage, Norris left but later returned with microphone in hand, Sizzla told him to leave once more, and then Norris Man blurted out what could have been his death warrant when he said 'suck yu madda'.

Sizzla simply said, 'what yu tell me 'bout mi madda' and suddenly, a small army of turban-wearing men began to beat Norris Man savagely. In the meantime, Sizzla continued to deejay as if nothing had happened.

The onstage altercation caused a melee at the front of the stage, as some rastafarians in the crowd began to jump onstage in an earnest attempt to beat Norris Man as well. Capleton was able to restore order with a long stream of expletives and the show resumed. However, later, Norris Man returned onstage and appealed to the people, 'see what dem do me' and this time, he was boxed and mauled, and dragged off the stage like a ragdoll by another set of angry rastafarians. The crowd was terrified by what they were witnessing and there were several mini-stampedes throughout the packed venue.

One man shouted in awe: "Ah suicide Norris Man waah commit, why him go up there again?'

Time to check your kids back to school list: new books, uniform, gym kit, pencil case, bad haircut, healthy lunch, bulletproof backpack. Huh?

A couple of Boston fathers have decided that you cant be too careful about going to school these days in the US so have created a couple of bulletproof backpacks. The MyChild backpack will stop most bullets, including 9mm hollow points, the makers claim.

It sounds mad but they say that since 1999 there have been 328 school shootings, leaving 229 dead and 422 injured.

Too paranoid or worth £90?

Amy Winehouse has entered drug rehab, it has been announced today (August 15).
The star has been moved to a treatment facility after she was treated in hospital for an overdose last week. According to The Sun, the singer has been admitted to the Causeway rehab centre in Essex, a remote £10,000-a-week retreat. It is quite obvious in the pics above, that drugs took a major toll on her life. She quite frankly went from mack to wack, or maybe should I say "crack"!

Isn't it ironic the very place Amy Winehouse sings about, she checks into?

According to Media*******.com, rumors are circulating that Kanye West will change his release date, for his album "Graduation" of September 11th. Sources claim Def Jam reps say 50 Cent's team, is turning this friendly competition into a "battle to the death". The insider source at Def Jam, also says "we're not going to risk damaging his career with this feud". Well if these speculations are true, I'm totally shocked, because I was looking forward to this battle of these great Hip Hop titans.

Tell me what you think, about these developing speculations about the Kanye West release date change?.....LOL

Hip-hop star Jay-Z's talent for extending beyond rap to the executive worlds of music, fashion and other businesses has earned him the top spot on Forbes magazine's "Hip-Hop Cash Kings" list.

Forbes on Thursday said Jay-Z, whose real name is Shawn Carter, raked in $34 million in 2006, the year he released a comeback album "Kingdom Come."

But the boyfriend of pop singer Beyonce earned much of that income as chief executive of New York-based Def Jam Recordings, owner of a sports bar franchise and holder of endorsements deals with Budweiser, Hewlett-Packard and General Motors, Forbes said.

In March, Jay-Z, 36, sold his Rocawear fashion label for $204 million -- a sum that will again place him high up in the music world's earnings for 2007.

Coming in at No. 2 was rapper 50 Cent, a.k.a Curtis Jackson. He earned $32 million from his music and businesses such as a record label, video games and a line of books, the survey said.

Diddy -- real name Sean Combs -- came in third. He owns the Sean John clothing label and a cologne that he licensed to Estee Lauder. He also is an MTV television producer. Timbaland, whose real name is Timothy Mosley, was No. 4 with earnings of $21 million from collaborations and running Mosley Music Group.

Dr. Dre, a.k.a. Andre Young, grabbed fifth place with $20 million from ventures that include running Aftermath Entertainment, followed by Eminem at No. 6, who brought in $18 million, and Snoop Dogg at No. 7, who earned $17 million.

Forbes associate editor Lea Goldman said the hip-hop stars are "masters at branding and cross-promotion" so that "they're still making a killing as the rest of the music industry suffers."

"They get that it's not just about selling albums, but about selling a lifestyle," she said. "So they've plowed their earnings into media empires that include their own record labels, clothing lines, restaurants and bars."

Grammy award winner Kanye West was No. 8 with $17 million followed by Pharrell Williams, who has his own sneaker and clothing lines, and Scott Storch, a former keyboardist with the Roots turned hip-hop and pop writer and producer. Both also earned $17 million.
