			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A lot of people would agree that <a href="http://www.kingice.com/Gold-Plated-Black-CZ-Kanye-West-Inspired-Teddy-Bear-Pendant-P109072.html">Kanye West</a> was snubbed for an Album of the Year Nomination. Not only did Kanye drop one of the most artistic albums of the year “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy”, but he even collaborated with one of the best rappers of all time, Jay-Z, with “Watch the Throne”. This is what he had to say about his albums getting overlooked.</p>
<p>“Something I figured out earlier today &#8211; because you know, everybody came to me last night like, ‘Congratulations!’ because you know I’m leading the Grammy nominations this year. Like we always do it this time,” he said. “But, people focus, they say, ‘You ain’t got Album of the Year or Record of the Year.’ But I figured out, that’s my fault for dropping Watch the Throne and Dark Fantasy the same year. I should have just spaced it out a little bit more. But don’t worry, because me and Hov gon’ keep on making s**t.”</p>
<p>Kanye led the nominees with a total of seven, followed by Adele who got six nominations. Here is the video below:</p>

<p>Remember when Beyonce was rumored as having a fake pregnancy? Well, you know the diva had to come out and say something. In an interview with 20-20’s Katie Couric, she had this to say:</p>
<p>&#8220;There are certain things that are so far, that it doesn&#8217;t even upset you. My mother, she&#8217;s like, &#8216;Nobody&#8217;s talking about my grandbaby! My grandbaby&#8217;s not even here yet!&#8217; I&#8217;m like, &#8216;Calm down, Mom. It&#8217;s okay. It&#8217;s really silly. I&#8217;m cool. It&#8217;s ridiculous. It&#8217;s so over-the-top.&#8221;</p>
<p>The <a href="http://technorati.com/blogs/iluluonline.com">R&amp;B singer</a> has been quite busy, even though she’s pregnant, editing her latest concert for a DVD she’ll be releasing called “Live at Roseland: Elements of 4”.</p>
<p>&#8220;I learned how to edit for the last DVD&#8230;I make all my selects, I sit in the chair&#8230;I am an editor as well. I have great editors, thank God. It is a lot of work. Especially when I&#8217;m trying to tell stories that are from so many moments of my life.”</p>
<p>Check out the interview below:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So is Beyonce really pregnant? Everyone’s been speculating about this topic because of a TV interview she had where we saw her belly become horrifically distorted. It looked as though she were wearing a fake stomach. Then there are the instances in public where her baby bump sometimes looks big and other times a bit small. When compared to Jessica Simpson’s unreported, yet obvious pregnancy, her gut never transforms in size like Bey’s does. And they are said to be due around the same time. Some may say that she is pretending to be pregnant &#8212; maybe she can’t have children or doesn’t want to with her own body and has a surrogate, others may say this is publicity and the majority may disregard all of these <a href="http://technorati.com/blogs/gossiponthis.com">rumors </a>and believe that she is pregnant. </p>
<p>Well, whatever the real story may be, Beyonce and <a href="http://www.kingice.com/Mens-Hip-Hop-Sterling-Silver-Micro-Pave-Clear-CZ-and-Aquamarine-Pinky-Ring-P107525.html">Jay-Z </a>have been planning out the nursery for their baby. You can actually call this nursery a house, given that its 2,200 sq ft, but they won’t be the first to do drastic arrangements for their baby &#8212; Nick Cannon and Mariah Carrey and J-Lo and Marc Anthony also decked out their baby’s pads. There’s been speculation that Bey and Jay will be having a daughter, but this has yet to be confirmed. </p>
<p>Take a look at the video below to see what kindled the fake baby bump debate. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A small spark of beef has been crackling away between Jay-Z and <a href="http://technorati.com/blogs/imfmag.com">Lil&#8217; Wayne</a>, but the two rappers are downplaying it. Jay-Z says that it is the sport of rap music. It all began with Jay-Z making a comment in his track about Baby Money:</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m like, &#8216;Really, half-a-billi?&#8217; N***a, really, you got Baby money/ Keep it real with n****s, n****s ain&#8217;t got my lady money.&#8221; </p>
<p>Weezy struck back in his song “It&#8217;s Good” where he says:</p>
<p>&#8220;Talkin&#8217; bout Baby money? I got your baby money/ Kidnap your b***h, get that how-much-you-love-your-lady money.&#8221; </p>
<p>During his Shawn Carter Foundations&#8217; Making the Ordinary Extraordinary fundraiser, Jay-Z told MTV:</p>
<p>“That&#8217;s sport, that&#8217;s Rap music. Nothing is going to change but the participants. I don&#8217;t even see why that&#8217;s news.”</p>
<p>Then in an interview with <a href="http://www.kingice.com/Black-White-CZ-Disco-Ball-Bead-Buddhist-Shamballa-Bracelet-P108424.html">Lil&#8217; Wayne</a>, he talks of being an innovator. </p>
<p>&#8220;We was reminiscing on the life of Steve Jobs,&#8221; began Wayne. &#8220;An..innovator of many things. A very influential man. Most of our lives&#8230;I don&#8217;t know a person that hasn&#8217;t been influenced in some sort of way by this man. We lost that man&#8230;I think a lot too soon. Obviously too soon because I&#8217;m quite sure that there&#8217;s a bunch of people who don&#8217;t know who I&#8217;m talking about. And that&#8217;s when you&#8217;ve lost someone too soon.&#8221; </p>
<p>You can see more of the interview in the video below. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you missed the <a href="http://technorati.com/blogs/blog.vh1.com">VMAs</a>, you missed a very exciting performance by a pregnant Beyonce (yes, I said pregnant). We’ve been waiting for this day to arrive since Jay-Z and Beyonce got together. Now, it’s finally official. And if you didnn’t get to see the revealing of her baby bump on stage (and the reaction of Jigga and <a href="http://www.kingice.com/KANYE-Mens-18K-Gold-Plated-Stainless-Steel-Curb-Link-Necklace-Chain-P106603.html">Kanye</a>), then you can check it out below. Twitter received a record high of tweets at that moment (10:35 pm on Sunday) with 8,868 tweets per second.</p>
<p><iframe width="560" height="345" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/AzgmeodcY-c" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>The two are definitely excited about their new addition to the family, and the 29-year-old singer’s 30-year plan is actually falling into place. </p>
<p>&#8220;I feel like a woman. I feel like I&#8217;m very aware of who I am. I feel great and I feel like 30 is the ideal age [to start a family], because you&#8217;re mature enough to know who you are and to have your boundaries and your standards, and not be afraid, too polite &#8212; but you&#8217;re young enough to be a young woman,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I&#8217;m so looking forward to it. I always said I&#8217;d have a baby at 30. But I also said I&#8217;m going to retire at 30. &#8230; Only God knows.&#8221;<br />
Then Beyonce went on talking about her husband Jay.</p>
<p>&#8220;Jay and I have kind of made a decision that we want to be known for our music and not our relationships or scandals. But he is amazing,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I definitely had a very natural friendship and connection with him. We&#8217;ve been together for a very long time and I&#8217;m very happy. Love is the foundation of everything, everything I do. My music is inspired by love &#8212; from my family, my husband, my sister.&#8221;</p>
<p>Having a little boy would be perfect so that her sister Solange’s son would have a playmate, but the two don’t care about what they have. So far, there’s no word on the sex Beyonce and Jay-Z’s baby.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.kingice.com/">Hip hop</a> tours are poppin all over the globe. First, we have rumors that Keyshia Cole, Rihanna and Ciara will be touring together, so if you&#8217;re looking for a great R&amp;B concert, you should definitely check out the dates and cities to for this show. No dates have been set yet, but keep an eye and ear out. Supposedly, Rihanna would like to team up with strong women for a &#8220;women empowerment&#8221; type tour. This trio would definitely empower the women in their concert crowds with their soulful voices and lyrics. </p>
<p>Rihanna has a live concert in Dubai coming up; yes it has been confirmed. There will be 25,000 tickets available for sale. No exact location has been set, but it may be in an outside arena&#8230;wouldn&#8217;t that be lovely?</p>
<p><img src="http://kingice.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/keyshiacole09big.jpg" alt="Keyshia Cole" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-198" /></p>
<p>Beyonce is also on tour, but has told interviewers that she is looking to wrap things up and take two years off to play the role of a wife to her husband Jay-Z, who is also on tour by the way. The two currently try to link their calendars together, so that they can schedule time together. B definitely misses her boo while on tour, so to help her feel better, she has Jay-Zs name written on the nails of her index, middle and ring fingers. This helps her to remember him and even makes her smile she says. Beyonce is really looking forward to starting a family and leading a somewhat normal life. </p>
