Do you remember the drama between Ne-Yo and R. Kelly regarding Ne-Yo being kicked off the ‘Double Up’ tour last year then he turned around and sued R. Kelly earlier this year? Well, R. Kelly’s promoter was ordered by a Los Angeles judge to pay $700,320 since Ne-Yo was suppose to earn $785,000 while on the tour. Get that money Ne-Yo! Thoughts?

T.I. Ecstatic About Huge Billboard Leap!

Things are looking good for T.I. right at this moment, not only does he have the #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100, it jumped up 70 spots in one week!

“I guess people like the song — I hope that’s what accounts for it,” T.I. told Billboard.com Friday in Detroit, where he was making a pair of community service appearances to speak to local youth. It’s part of 1,000 hours he’s required to serve in conjunction with his 2007 federal weapons conviction. “I think it’s a new sound for me, something people aren’t necessarily used to hearing. It’s one of those risky records. It just happened to work in our favor.” Billboard

His upcoming album Paper Trail will be his third album in three years (2006’s King and 2007’s T.I. vs. T.I.P.). He might have a chance to debut at #1 with this album. I wouldn’t be surprised since his last 2 albums reached #1 on the charts. Make sure you pick up the album on September 30th. Thoughts?
