Rapper Wiz Khalifa performed live at the Howlin Wolf, this past Wednesday. Local artists K. Gates, Da Goonz, AA, Rico Got'Em, Corner Boy P, Lyrikill, Aquaforce, and more opened up for him.

This event was brought to you by Supreme Street and Traffic Boutique. It was the best event they've thrown, so far.

That night was amazing! The venue was packed from wall to wall; everyone came out and showed love. If you weren't there, you totally missed out.

Wiz himself had a blast. Here's what he had to say via twitter:

I love events like this! And I must say that I'm proud of NOLA's industry scene coming together to support each other. Events like these have been going on for a minute, but this was the first time that everyone who has a name participated. This is only the beginning. Ow!

Videos coming soon, but for now, click on the image (above) and check out the photos from the night.

Justin Combs Lives SUCH A Sweet Life.


Justin Combs, son of Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, had a SUPER Sweet 16 birthday bash this past Saturday, in New York. The party was filmed to be on MTV's My Super Sweet 16.

You've seen the episodes of the hit MTV show, but you aint never seen nothin' like this! Diddy threw his first born a "Prince of New York" party in style only known to the rich, famous, and fabulous. But, what else can we expect from the man who runs New York?

Justin's guest list included Nicki Minaj (his date for the night), Lil Kim, Teyana Taylor, Diggy Simmons, Juelz Santana, Jim Jones, Fabulous, Trey Songz, Heavy D, and more.

For gifts, Justin received a $300,000+ Maybach Benz. Since Justin can't drive just yet, Diddy hired a driver until Justin can drive on his own. Diddy also presented Justin with a $10,000 check to deposit into the bank, but Justin decided to donate that money to Yele Haiti (Wyclef Jean's Foundation).

Sweet.

No word on when the new season of MTV's My Super Sweet 16 will air, but for now, enjoy the photos and videos from Justin's party:

Kanye + Amber In "The Ugliest Things."


When PETA saw Kanye West and Amber covered in fur, head to to, at Paris Men's Fashion Week, the animal lovers had a few choice words.


The prettiest people do the ugliest things
For the road to riches and diamond rings
. . .
We'll buy a lot of clothes but we don't really need 'em
Things we buy to cover up what's inside

—Kanye West, "All Falls Down"

West apparently lives by his lyrics. The ethical dropout—who horrified voters in PETA's Worst-Dressed Celebrity competition last year—and his sleazy sidekick, Amber Rose, were snapped by paparazzi strutting around Paris in "the ugliest things," indeed. Both were wearing head-to-toe fur, and Amber refused to remove her full-length lynx coat during a show at Paris Men's Fashion Week.

As PETA V.P. Dan Mathews so eloquently put it, "Kanye can't help making himself look like an idiot, whether at an awards show or a fashion show. He and his girlfriend look like pathetic creatures from a shabby roadside zoo."



Well, why don't you say what you feel, PETA. They have no shame in calling celebrities OUT when they feel the need to.

Kanye was named one of PETA's "Worst-Dressed" Celebrities of 2009, along with Madonna, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, and more.

Rih's Rude Boy -- Literally.


There is a lot of speculation going on about Rihanna's new beau, Matt Kemp's, past. Check out the video:



Idk. Rih needs to take a breather to find herself and what she really wants. All of this is happening too fast; there's no need to rush. I think she's just really trying to get over Chris.

FYI: Matt Kemp's ex-girlfriend, Felisha Terrell, is the ex-fiance of NFL Player, Terrell Owens. She was on an episode of the T.O. Show.

Superbowl BOUND.

What's understood doesn't need to be explained.

NOLA, we did it!








Bless you, boys! Miami, here we come!

Colts, get readyyy! Ow!

Video | Diddy Speaks on Haiti.

Diddy expresses his feelings about the tragedy and urges everyone to help out.



Okay, at first I thought he had pink eye, or something, but then I realized he's just a little tired. Say NO to sleep! Right, Diddy?

Seen on the Scene: Rihanna + Matt Kemp.



Rihanna and her new beau, Matt Kemp, were seen courtside at the Clippers game last night.





I can say one thing: Matt sure does like to take his ladies to the Clippers games, courtside.

Happy Birthday, Aaliyah!



Aaliyah Dana Haughton was born on January 16, 1979. Today, the late singer would have been 31 years old.

Aaliyah, along with eight others, was killed on August 25, 2001, in a plane crash in Marsh Harbor, Bahamas, after filming the music video for "Rock The Boat."

Every year, on her birthday and anniversary of her death, I receive an email in memory of Aaliyah.

This year, her brother, Rashad, under the stage name, RAD: 6 ("Rashad and Aaliyah's Dimensions"), wrote a song called "One In A Billion," in memory of his little sister.

Words can't express my feelings for Aaliyah. Since 1994, when she first came through my speakers with "Back and Forth," I've absolutely cherished Aaliyah. She is truly missed, but lives through all of her fans.

It's über hard to choose, but here's one of my favorite videos:



Love you Bey and all, but Aaliyah will always be the first lady of the Roc. She was the hottest chick in the game, wearing his chain.

Rest in Peace, baby girl!!
