Bobby Brown PERFORMS For Tom Joyner, Says He's "...21 Days Clean Of Alcohol, And I Go By The Name Bad Ass Bobby Brown!”

Posted: 02 Sep 2012 05:52 AM PDT

R&B crooner Bobby Brown hit the stage in Florida for Allstate Tom Joyner Family Reunion recently declaring he's sober and going by the name "Bad Ass Bobby Bobby."  Get the deets on his performance and his wife's hospital scare inside......

Over the weekend, a freshly rehabbed Bobby Brown performed with New Edition at a sold out concert during Allstate Tom Joyner Family Reunion.

Bobby told the crowd of over 14,000 people “I’m seven and a half years off of narcotics, 21 days clean of alcohol, and I go by the name Bad Ass Bobby Brown!”

Bobby allegedly left rehab early for the performance.

Backstage he kicked it with Tom Joyner, his son Cassius and wife Alicia Etheredge (who was reportedly treated at a local hospital for a seizure days earlier).

And did you know that New Edition is celebrating 30 years in the business?

FESTIVAL FRESH: Jay-Z Brings Out Kanye West, 2 Chainz & More + Maybach Music, D'Angelo Kill The MADE IN AMERICA Stage

Posted: 01 Sep 2012 11:49 AM PDT

Jay-Z pulled out all the stops for Day 1 of his & Budweiser's Made In America Festival in Philly. TheYBF.com was on the scene, and we've got recaps, pics and video inside...

Mr. Carter has officially put his stamp on Philadelphia this Labor Day weekend.  Day 1 kicked off Saturday, and 15 different acts took 3 different stages on the extra packed grounds around Ben Franklin Parkway.

Hov closed out the night on the Rocky Stage (set right in front of the famous stairs where Sylvester Stallone ran in the movie), rocking his Brooklyn Nets cap, and brought out Kanye & the whole G.O.O.D. Music fam.  As well as his homie Memphis Bleek.

Jay flew through an hour and a half set after entering from behind the stage--coming down the famous stairs and hitting the stage to open with "PSA"--of course.  Wife Beyonce was chillin' in front of the stage in the VIP area--and was put up on the big screen during "'03 Bonnie & Clyde."  And a message from President Obama, shouting out the Made in America Fest, played at the beginning of the set.  Swizz Beatz, dressed in head to toe Givenchy, came out for "On To The Next One."

Jay left the last half hour to Yeezy--and we confirmed with a Budweiser Exec that he arrived about an hour before showtime--with girlfriend Kim K.--in a helicopter.  'Ye did a few tracks and brought out Big Sean, Pusha T, Common and 2 Chainz.  All also performed their own tracks.  Since the Cruel Summer album is dropping soon, it was a perfect time to promo.

By the way, at the end of G.O.O.D,'s set, all the fellas lined up and turned their backs to the crowd to show off their matching Angel tees.  Was this a sign that 2 Chainz has officially become a member of G.O.O.D. Music?  Hmmm...

Hov & 'Ye ended with "N*ggas In Paris--and had thousands of people losing their minds.  The twosome closed out with fireworks and a champagne toast as they walked off the stage.  Ha!  Check the video above.

 

Maybach Music Group took over the Rocky Stage earlier in the day.  The set kicked off with Wale rocking out with his hits, then Head honcho Rick Ross rocked the stage and brought out Meek Mill and Stalley.  Here's their set from the live stream (via Pandora/Youtube):

 

 

D'Angelo sounded incredible, but looked all out crackish.  Peep his full set below:

And we'll leave it at that.

 

Jay Electronica (spotted backstage with Stalley) performed at the Liberty Stage, as did Janelle Monae:

 

Jill Scott, Odd Future, Drake and plenty more (including several Techno/House DJ's at the Freedom Stage) are set to take over the stages tomorrow.  More pics:
