| Aerosmith
is Worthless |
KNAC reports: Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler
is resentful towards all of the internet downloading that's been occuring
because the music and albums, or back catalogue, that he possesses ownership
of has become utterly worthless, according to a published report. "There
was a time when our catalogue was worth $24 million and now it's worth,
like, 12 cents. Why? Because anybody can download it on the internet."

| Ego
Cinema |
hecklerspray reports: Kanye West making a
movie? We're not so sure that'd work. After all, Kanye has an ego so huge
that we have a slight feeling that a Kanye West movie would just consist
of two hours of Kanye's giant, unsmiling face staring into a camera for
the audience to bow down and worship. But that's something we'll have to
see for ourselves - because Kanye West is making a movie.
Kanye West has teamed up with New Line
Cinema and Anonymous Content to make a film inspired by his music. ABC
reports the Kanye West movie as being:
A multi-perspective look at life in America
through the eyes of West and various writers and directors. [see full story

stage.
We're told Pickler was panicked that she
might have a "wardrobe malfunction" with her black strapless number. Minutes
before going on, Pickler was fidgeting and hoisting up the dress. [see

Renegades Tour |
Press Release reports: Tre Hardson has announced
an April 4th release for his highly anticipated new album, SlimKid3's Café.
Departing slightly from his Pharcyde roots, Tre has put together a new
band, Fuqawi, and a sexy, soulful sound based in live instrumentation rather
than DATs and turntables. Hardson's new record, SlimKid3's Café,
offers a much needed alternative to the current hip-hop "bling" trend and
further solidifies him as one of the great musical innovators of this generation.
In support of SlimKid3's Café, Tre
will be embarking on a national tour, Rap Renegades Tour, with his 5-piece
band Fuqawi and another alternative hip-hop artist, Speech of Arrested
Development. Also on the bill are Modill and Longshot, who will spin the
party started.[see full story for more including dates]-
