New music news

It's Monday morning, and I'm kinda sleepy...so I'll just kick it off with some news about new albums to look forward to/or ignore. (Thanks to billboard.com, for some of the following).


Flavor Flaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaavvv!!
While most people are still in shock about Flavor Flav's new romance with Brigitte Nielson (there's even a new show about it coming to VH1 soon), it's great to hear he's in the studio. Not only is he preparing a solo album, but also a new album with Chuck D. Flav claims the album is "way better than our most recent albums." That's great news, because most people don't remember "Revolverlution," "There's a Poison Goin' On" or "Muse Sick In Hour Mess Age." Hopefully they'll get back to the Public Enemy of old.

Oh no, not J-Lo!
Jennifer Lopez has a new album coming out early next year. Run.....run while you still can.....run as fast as you can!!

Where is the love?
Black Eyed Peas are releasing their new album early next year - and Fergie has a solo album coming out too. Hopefully she'll be better than Gwen Stefani and put out something that is actually fit for the decade at hand. I also hope we don't have to listen to any silly lyric changes. I understand they rewrote "Let's Get Retarted" into "Let's Get it Started" for the NBA, but does that mean they have to sing the new version live as well? Geez, we're getting oversensitive.

Bombs over Baghdad
Along with finishing a new movie, the boys from Outkast are preparing two new albums for the new year.


Burn, baby, burn
If you haven't already, be sure to check out The Battle for Ozzfest on MTV on Monday nights at 10:30 p.m. EST. Of course, I have to support the local group - Cynder. I'm keeping tabs on the band for an upcoming story for the newspaper, and will try to keep updates on here too. So far, the band's singer, Ryan Camp, has stayed pretty much out of trouble. It would be great to see them put North Carolina on the musical map - for something other than Fantasia or Clay Aiken.

Coming soon - My list of the top 10 albums of the year, more on the Grammy nominations and the usual fun stuff.
