Oprah's Next Chapter: Cissy Houston
On February 11,2012 the world lost an amazing woman, singer and mother. We lost Whitney Houston and it was a heartache no one has quite gotten over.
Oprah sits down with the Houston family matriarch, Cissy Houston in her New Jersey home. This is Cissy's first interview since Whitney's untimely death and this interview was very real.
Oprah covered several topics including Whitney's first taste of drug abuse in the late 80's and through this interview we learned that it was her brother Michael who introduced her to drugs, not Bobby Brown as society wanted you to believe.
Michael currently lives with the guilt and fights his demons on a daily basis because of living with regret. He admits he's alive but not really living because he is still mourning the death of his beloved sister and says he will never forgive himself.
Oprah also talks about Whitney's friendship with best friend/assistant Robin a relationship Cissy didn't approve of and she admitted that she DIDNT know the nature of their friendship and it could have been a gay relationship, one that Cissy adamantly said that she would never approve of , nor acknowledge her daughter being gay and absolutely without a doubt condone it.
Oprah also asked about her granddaughter Bobbi Kristina and it was evident that
relationship is estranged because Cissy demands respect and Bobbi Kristina knows she can't treat her grandmother any ole kind if way.
Overall it was a great interview and questions were definitely answered as Cissy said she wanted to set the record straight with the interview and her book. You could see the pain in her eyes and emptiness that Cissy lives with because she too is mourning her Nippy.

'Major Payne' Kid Actor Arrested on DUI Charge
By Alicia Cruz
The Black Urban Times
In a not so Raven fashion, actor Orlando Brown was nabbed on a drunken driving charge Friday night with his pregnant girlfriend riding shotgun.
Los Angeles Police initially stopped Brown for a traffic violation, but when they got close to the 23-year-old actor, they caught a whiff of liquor and things went downhill quickly, TMZ reported.
According to an LAPD source, the actor was almost home when an officer observed Brown's vehicle with no license plate on it. After smelling alcohol, the officer administered a field sobriety test, which Brown failed. The admitted Elvis Presley Fan was released from the Hollywood police station in lieu of $15,000 bail, reported BET.
The Los Angeles native made headlines in 2008 after he briefly disappeared following a trip to a 7-Eleven in Studio City. The actor re-surfaced 24 hours later apologizing to fans and family saying he felt "lost and needed time alone."
In 2007, the young actor was arrested in Texas after police stopped him for driving with his headlights off. A subsequent search of the vehicle produced nine grams of marijuana. Brown later told Houston's ABC affiliate, KTRK that the car was not his and he did not know there were drugs in the car, ABC News reported.

Some of you may recall first seeing Brown starring opposite comedian/actor Damon Wayans as that cute little boy, Tiger, in the 1995 movie, "Major Payne."
Some of his film credits include "Senseless at the Gate" (1998), and "The Poor Bear" (2000). He's starred in television shows such as "The Jamie Foxx Show," "Family Matters," "That's so Raven," and currently, "WordGirl."

Jamie Foxx & Foxxhole Radio Heads to D.C. for MLK
 |
From the Superbowl—football’s biggest event, the BET Awards—one of music’s biggest nights and even the Presidential Inauguration of Barack Obama—one of American history’s greatest days, The Foxxhole has been there giving play by play accounts of events as they happen, giving its listeners exclusive access and a front row seat to it all. If it’s raising the eyebrows of people everywhere, as well as raising awareness, then it’s on the radar of The Foxxhole. The satellite radio channel has been and continues to be on the cutting edge of all things funny & all things affecting its audiences, great and small, everywhere.
Once again, Jamie Foxx is taking The Foxxhole, his exclusive 24/7 comedy and entertainment channel, to one of the greatest celebrations in American history set to honor one of the greatest figures in American history—The Washington, DC Martin Luther King, Jr. National Memorial Unveiling. To commemorate this historic and momentous event and to celebrate with millions via radio and millions more who will be traveling to the DMV area to witness it first hand, The Foxxholewill be broadcasting “LIVE” throughout the Capitol City on Tuesday, August 23rd – Sunday, August 28th on SiriusXM 98. All week long The Foxxhole will become and be called "MLK Radio" with complete coverage of all the events. It will be your exclusive pass to all things MLK, while counting down to the historic Martin Luther King, Jr. National Memorial Unveiling on Sunday, August 28th. The Foxxhole will be the only radio network in the country broadcasting all week long from exclusive locales in the Capitol City.
"Rev. King stated, 'Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter,' and for me The Foxxhole is my vehicle to give things that matter a voice," said Foxx. "The MLK National Memorial Unveiling is a once in a lifetime moment. It is one moment that I couldn't let pass me by, nor could I deny millions access to experience and take part in it via radio. I felt it was my duty, in honor of Rev. King, to use my talents and all of the resources that I possess, to not only entertain, but to also educate. Dedicating The Foxxhole's airwaves to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and transforming it into MLK radio all week is one of many ways for me to do this."
The Foxxhole will be interviewing celebrities, community leaders, the biggest names in town and those that worked to make the MLK National Memorial possible. The Foxxhole will also be “LIVE” in DC getting a first-hand account of the impact Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. had then and now and what this moment in time and the unveiling means to people everywhere. The “LIVE” coverage from official MLK National Memorial events and other DC hotspots and landmarks will bring listeners up close and in person with one of the greatest events in American history. The broadcast will give fans and listeners from around the country a chance to be in the midst of it all with The Foxxhole as the MLK celebrations and festivities go down in the Capitol. A full schedule for The Foxxhole's daily broadcasts and locales will be announced in the coming week.
The Foxxhole has, not only become one of the most listened to radio networks in the country, but it has also become the go to vehicle for all things impacting people everywhere. The Foxxhole presence at The Martin Luther King, Jr. National Memorial Unveiling is just one of many to come.

By the looks of the photo above, I'm guessing Lauryn Hill is out of the picture when it comes to Rohan Marley's love life. It took a lot of research for me to dig this one up and it was well worth it. Now, instead of assuming and making up rumors, we can all say that Rohan Marley is dating Isabeli the Brazilian model.

The sexy and fierce, Rihanna (@Rihanna) latest music video for her single "Man Down" is ruffling up a couple of feathers. In the video, there is a scene where Rihanna shoots a man who raped her. Many people and organizations are now calling for the video to be removed from off of music video television programs. Rihanna responded via twitter earlier June 2 about the controversy, "The music industry isn't exactly Parents R Us! We have the freedom to make art, LET US! Its your job to make sure they dont turn out like US."
Peep the video below and tell us what you think?

New Jersey’s Prodigal Son:Finally Our 15 Minutes Of Fame by: Krusher Kronkite
New Jersey runs through me as the blood beneath my veins. My love affair with the Garden State is as pure as the driven snow that falls upon the crack riddled streets as the world is suddenly infatuated with a place I call home. It is safe to say I'm biased when it comes to my state's influence on the modern world and for better or worse we are fucking rebels and we will fight for what is ours and then yours. I find it quite odd that the media has suddenly transformed Jersey into a mill of reality shows that portrays us in all of our audacious glory but I beg to differ. You see I come from a place that created one of the biggest influences in the history of music with Plainfield "P-Funk" New Jersey being the birthplace of George Clinton's Parliament Funkadelic, DJ Cheese who was one of the first DMC mixing championship DJ's that toured with Run-DMC, and Jam Master Jay discovering home grown rap group Fam-Lee after watching them perform on the Apollo stage.
New Jersey has always been slept on because of its close proximity to New York and fortunately we march to the beat of a different drum including a multitude of singers, musicians,dj's and mc's. The opening credits for "The Sopranos" continues to send chills down my spine as the camera travels down the New Jersey Turnpike bringing back the fond complexities of my youth and the virility of my naivety. When the towers fell, New Jersey witnessed its destruction as The Statue Of Liberty(actually located in Liberty Park, Jersey City) torch firmly stood through the plumes of smoke that polluted the sky on our side of the Hudson River with nearly a quarter of the victims of the attack were New Jersey residents.
The Garden State happens to be the mecca of the most diners, malls, largest seaport, and has the most expensive car insurance rates in the country to say the least. Millions make pilgrimages as Trump makes millions in Atlantic City with the hopes of striking it rich, while others take advantage of us not charging sales tax on gas, clothes, and medicine. Not to mention allowing the New York Giants and Jets to play football in our own backyard and sadly watching our beloved Nets travel to Brooklyn without a championship ring, "thanks alot" Jay-Z. It would be an insult not mention the contributors that paved the way for multitudes to eat off of our grind and despite what you think about the city of Newark being the former car theft capital we have a Black Mayor(Cory Booker) and a former gay one (Jim McGreevey, Whitney Houston, Redman, Queen Latifah,Naughty By Nature, Das-EFX, Bruce Springsteen, Lords of The Underground, Frank Sinatra, and one of Hip-Hop's first successful rap labels (Sugar Hill Records) and rap song (Rappers Delight) and who can forget about our Hockey Team (NJ Devils) that copped a few of those Stanley Cups?
- Plainfiled New Jersey resident and famous author J.M. Benjamin
We were right triaterally alongside New York and Connecticut experiencing the birth of Hip-Hop and becoming the oasis of leisure for many rappers of today and yesterday (Jim Jones, Juelz Santana, Biggie, and Fat Joe) occupying our zip and area codes. Do you remember Plainfield's Total and racially charged 1967 riots that left a police officer beaten and brutally shot and killed him with his own gun? As a teenager I remember Big Daddy Kane, Biz Markie, and De La Soul performing at the Strand Theater and talking to former Net and local business owner Jayson Williams and former Chicago Bulls star Jason "Jay" Williams chillin in the 908. Back in the day radio personality Ed Lover and Missy Eliot frequented the Queen City while Jersey City's Peter Bond and Elizabeth's Bilal Pretlow hustled keys of coke on Jersey Streets.
Over the years i have lived abroad and it could be 3,000 miles away and I can still spot a car with a New Jersey license plate and run into old friends and former classmates that reunite on facebook and relocated to the ATL. New Jersey later developed a cult following for "Baltimore Club Music" and is the home to the notorious Central American MS-13, La Cosa Nostra, and Bronx influenced( "Pistol Pete's") Sex, Money, Murder Gang in Trenton. The Garden State is the home of the coolest Italians and have the hottest strip clubs. Jersey girl Wendy Williams managed to claw her way to the top and shout out her state between every soundbyte. Isn't it exciting to see everybody hating on Joe Budden every time he bags a new Latina hottie and about to sign that deal with Slaghterhouse and Eminem? How about getting that summer job at Six Flags Great Adventure where fellow Jerseyans Bon Jovi and Kool & The Gang performed on stage?
The Fugees made us proud while we rooted for the Outsidaz, Channel Live, and Artifacts to succeed just as well. Lady Luck got screwed by Def Jam while Serious Jones and Sam Scarfo is struggling to compete in the world of Hip-Hop. Didn't we love Rah Digga as an actress in the horror movie 13 Ghosts? Shit I've done passed my limit on this subject but I just had to let you know that Dr. Dre and the entire West Coast have to give credit where credit is due when it comes to our claim to Funk origins. Shout out to the late Flip Wilson, Slang Ton,Apache, Garry "Diaperman" Shider, Pac recruiting several Outlawz, Paterson hip-hop producer Just Blaze and New Jersey having the right to claim Eddie Murphy, Martha Stewart, Denzel Washington, Danny Devito, Joe Pesci, and Steve Forbes to our illustrious list of citiziens so I think you better recognize the place that bordered North Africa 180 million years ago and originally settled by Native Americans and has the largest petroleum containment outside the Middle East, the most toxic dumps and the highest population density in the U.S. ultimately being from a state I am proud to call my home and able to ride the NJ Transit train and legally drink a beer on board and soon be able to visit my local marijuana dispensary to receive medication for my post traumatic stress disorder from living on these tough Jersey streets.
