MUSIC FAB: Cassie Releases "Radio" Ft. Fabolous

Posted: 03 Sep 2011 07:21 AM PDT

 

Cassie has returned to the music scene with a hot new track featuring Fabolous. Listen to Cassie sing about the "Radio" inside.....

 

P. Diddy is up to his old tricks when it comes to "new" music.  First you take a catchy hook, then you lay it over a beat from the 80s or earlier that everyone loves and then.....you have a hit on your hands because it's all about the beat right?

For Cassie's new track "Radio",  the Bad Boy producers reached into their bag of samples and threw in an appearance by Fabolous to create a cute summer jam that's sure to be a hit. 

Cassie sings about a lover who jllted her and how she wishes she would have listened to the wisdom of Mary J. Blige, TLC, Xscape and others who warned her to leave him through songs on the "Radio." 

Listen to Cassie's latest song, "Radio" ft. Fabolous here:

Tameka "Tiny" Harris FIRES BACK At FEDS For T.I.'s Luxury Bus Flap, Says "This Is A Bunch Of Bulls**t!"

Posted: 02 Sep 2011 11:05 AM PDT

With her husband back in federal custody because of a "transportation" issue, Tameka "Tiny" Harris is not sitting by quietly, of course.  She blasted prison officials saying they escorted T.I. to his tour bus, posed for pics, and NEVER raised an issue.  Deets inside....

T.I.'s wife Tiny would like to know why T.I.'s tour bus became an issue for prison officals AFTER he left their custody.    

Tiny spoke to TMZ and revealed that prison officials clearly knew he would be riding on a tour bus because they personally walked him to the bus.  She adds that the officers then posed for pics with the rap star and wished him well in life.

"This is a bunch of bulls**t ... they should have said something before he got on the bus ... T.I. would have politely gotten into a van."

She continued,

"T.I. is one of the strongest individuals I know ... and they just trying to break him in more ways than one and it's not gonna work! 'Cause what God got for him, can't no man take that away ... period!"

Tiny's got a point. If you see something...say something.  But they should have followed the rules regardless.
