ATL Blog: Is @UsherRaymondVI In Trouble With Jive Records? Ditches Momama Patton AGAIN!

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

By now I’m sure you have heard that Usher’s new CD is in trouble yet again. Apparently Usher as set to drop his new album very soon, but of course another push back has occurred. According to the rumor mill Usher’s label [Jive] isn’t happy with the current infrastructure of his team and are now refusing to release his semi-anticipated new album “Raymond Vs Raymond” — that has failed to amass one hit single so far.

Usher’s Management has become an increasingly turbulent task these days. Raymond used to be managed by his mother Jonetta, however Ush’s first wife T.F.R.G.caused a rift so severe that he fired her, but rehired her days after separating and filing for divorce from T.F.R.G.

But the maternal relationship ended abruptly again late last year sending Usher and his moms their seperate ways. Gyantunplugged.com exclusively reported that Usher had fired Jonetta and replaced her with his new rumored girlfriend, former Def-Jam executive Grace Miguel.

Angry and refusing to let his new album die a horrid billboard death, Jive is now refusing to release Ush’s new project until he gets his shit together. And what’s more interesting is the new rumor that’s going around.

I hear Usher is said to be in talks to sign a new deal with AEG Live boss Randy Phillips, who manages Lionel Richie and Toni Braxton.

ATL Blog: Usher Gets Robbed, A Milli In Jewlery & Electronics Missing!

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

@UsherRaymond just bought a million dollar lesson just the other day as it’s being reported, that after a car burglary, the pop star was robbed, and lost over a million dollars in jewelry and electronics.

Per My Fox Atlanta:

Raymond and a second man told Atlanta police that their vehicle was broken into on Dec. 14 when the pair stopped at an AT&T store near Lenox Mall.

According to the police report, the vehicle was described as a black GMC Yukon. Raymond said and there was over a million dollars worth of jewelry, $50,000 in furs and closing and about $20,000 stolen.

A witness said they saw a Chevy Impala with tinted windows drive up next to the SUV. The witness told police a man got out of the Impala and popped open the door to the SUV.

Sux to be him at this moment, but we all know Ush has more money then Jesus [Madonna's new beau-not our lord and savior] so he’ll be fine.

But seriously though who runs around town carrying all that? I mean hell you might as well oput a neon sign saying “rob me” on your vehicle. We in hard times peoples. Criminals are desperate these days.

Celebrity Spotting: Usher and TFRG Spotted At The Movies Together??

Monday, January 4th, 2010

V103’s Miss Sophia is saying that Usher and @TFRG were spotting at the movies in the Atlanta area over the weekend. Sophia claims the two were canoodling and looking rather cozy together despite their recent divorce.

TFRG ran-up on me at an event last month requesting that I start being more nicer to her.  And when I even hinted that Usher could be gay, she quickly corrected me and assured me he isn’t by stating: “Believe me, my husband is not gay!” I was half-way kidding. However, I did notice that she referred to the once top selling singer as her husband.

Personally with Usher nothing surprises me this day. He’s blurred the lines between his business and personal life I don’t know what to believe anymore.

Just thought I’d pass along the info.

Def Jam Exec James Roppo Arrested Over Justin Bieber!

Thursday, November 26th, 2009

3399810888_4b8a1b2048

@DefJam is catching hell from virtually every angle these days. Just days after it was announced that Rihanna’s new album was being SEVERELY reduced to compete with the Lady Gaga’s and Susan Boyle’s of the world, I’m now hearing that fuckin’ around with @JustinBieber aka Usher’s young protege could land your ass in jail.

According to various reports Island Def Jam Records exec James Roppo was arrested last weekend, for the crime of NOT tweeting to assist police in crowd control.

Apparently, the exec has been charged with misdemeanors including endangering the welfare of children and obstructing governmental administration.

Reports say that police asked for the execs help in getting the crowd to go away by sending out a Twitter message, but refused resulting in him putting lives in danger and the public at risk.

A little far fetched indeed. Any good defense attorney worth their own salt should be able to get this crap thrown out. But why couldn’t it have been that damn @ScooterBraun [#imjustsayin]

Justin, this is no slam on you young sir. You’re just unfortunately collateral damage.

Psst Scoop: Jonetta And Usher At It Again? Has She Been Replaced By Grace Miguel?

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

I’m not trying to start nothing, but I’ve been hearing about Usher and his Mom’s going at it again over the marketing and management of his career. A couple of weeks ago I had heard whispers from inside the Usher camp that there were problems [you'd be surprised at the people who call me up with Intel].

And this morning I received a call that Usher has fired Jonetta from managing him and is now having his new cougar, and former Def Jam employee Grace Miguel taking over his business affairs.

This on top of a recent push-back announcement and you can see why Usher is nowhere near that come back he’s been eying.

Usher you better get it together. And QUICKLY!

No Usher This Year, “Raymond Vs. Raymond” Pushed Back To Feb 2010!

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

usher-hat

Though the label sent out the press release, my sources tell me that Usher has recanted on his plea to drop his new album, Raymond vs. Raymond this year.

Apparently Usher just finished the album this past Sunday and its currently being mastered. And seeing as though Usher’s scheduled release was just three weeks away, clearly homie got sense about the situation.

Usher’s new album is now scheduled for Febuary 2010.

Let’s pray Alicia Keys gets the memo, too.

Divorce Scoop: Usher is A Free Man.. FINALLY!

Friday, November 6th, 2009

usher1

I’m sure by now you’ve heard that Usher’s marriage has finally been dissolved.

I’d comment futher, but I really don’t wanna have to go to jail for assault, so lemme just post the info snatched from the Associated Press. Of course I made some amendments.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Bensonetta Tipton Lane issued a final decree in the divorce case Wednesday.

Usher, 31, whose real name is Usher Raymond IV, filed for divorce from Crazy on June 12. He said the couple had been separated since July 2008 and claimed there was “no reasonable hope of reconciliation” and the marriage was “irretrievably broken.”

Nut Job disputed Usher’s claim that the couple had been separated since July 2008. She said in court documents filed June 29 that she “had every reason to believe her marriage was intact” and that the two were “intimately together as husband and wife as recently as June 6.”

Usher’s lawyer, Ivory Brown, said Friday she couldn’t comment on the case. BJ Bernstein, a lawyer for the baby making machine, did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment. [See the "Papers" here]

Oh how it must feel to be one of the most hated nobodies on the face the planet. Now this chapter of Usher’s life is over, lets hope he coducts a criminal background check on his next wife.

God help her. I’m just sayin’

Epic Fail: Tameka Foster Raymond To Canadian Journalist, “F*ck You” [Audio]

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

464px-Removed.svg

Tameka has filed a DMCA complaint over what she claims are copyrighted images. I am currently having my graphics team work on a Gyantunplugged owned images just for her.

**Update**

True to form, Tameka Foster is claiming foul with the copyrighted pictures. And now the audio has been pulled from youtube. Thankfully though WSHH took care of the issue and posted the audio. What a fuggin loser!

In yet another example of why Tameka Foster Glover Raymond is nothing more then a huge liability, Kemi over at Hiphossip.com is putting Usher’s former wife on blast for what she claims is a recorded voice message left by one of the most hated chicks in life.

According to Kemi, Tameka called up her home and issued a verbal attack over something that was written Tameka wasn’t happy about. But to make matters worse, Kemi’s young son was the one to deliver the message to his Mommy, Way to go Tameka.

Personally, I can’t say that I can authenticate Tameka’s voice, but I’ve known Kemi a very long time and she’s been nothing but credible.

Kemi reports that she’s contacted the local authorities over the matter. I really wish everbody would take a time out. Some of you public figures take this ish way too seriously.

But this is definitely another Epic Fail for Usher’s now dumped wife. Keying car’s and now stalking journalists? What a common hood rat.

Sigh.
