Michael Jackson News:

LA TIMES has their Spin on the rental:

Michael Jackson leases Bel-Air mansion for $100,000 a month


It may not be Neverland, but it will have to do. Michael Jackson has leased a Bel-Air mansion for $100,000 a month, according to his manager-spokesman Tohme Tohme. The pop icon wanted to be closer to "where all the action is" in the entertainment industry, the spokesman said.

The gated estate that Jackson is leasing was one of the most expensive houses listed for sale last year in Los Angeles but was withdrawn from the market after the Gloved One signed a year's lease.
//

"He might want to build his own dream house" during that time, Tohme said, adding, "although the real estate market isn't very good right now."

Jackson's temporary shelter is a French chateau estate built in 2002. It has seven bedrooms, 13 bathrooms, 12 fireplaces and a theater. There is a multistory grand entry, hardwood floors, a formal dining room, wood-paneled den and adjoining library with coffered ceilings. The state-of-the-art kitchen has an adjacent butler's pantry. There is also a wine cellar and tasting room -- and nary a Ferris wheel or exotic animal in sight.

There's been speculation for several weeks that Jackson was living in the Los Angeles area. He was recently spotted in a Santa Monica bookstore browsing among the racks shielded by a black umbrella and sporting dark glasses and a face mask, according to multiple media reports. Unofficial biographer Ian Halperin claimed last month that Jackson was suffering from a life-threatening lung ailment and might be seeking medical treatment at a major U.S. hospital. The Jackson camp resoundingly denied Halperin's claims. Tohme says Jackson is well and considering various entertainment projects.


As for Jackson's famous Neverland compound that hovered on the brink of foreclosure for an eternity: In November it was widely reported that he surrendered title to the Neverland Ranch, which made the new owner the Sycamore Valley Ranch Co. -- a joint venture between Jackson and an affiliate of Colony Capital LLC. The 120-acre estate in the hills outside Santa Barbara once featured a zoo and roller coaster but fell into disrepair when Jackson left the area for Bahrain after he was acquitted on child molestation charges in 2005.

A Genre Reborn and a Singer Transformed: A New Mariza Brings a Smile to the World

http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/news.php?id=27883


Charlie Chaplin's “Smile" was never supposed to end up on the latest album by Portugal's grande dame. Mariza, a fado powerhouse, and Brazilian pianist Ivan Lins were just clowning around, having some fun with the sweet song that's been covered by everybody from Barbra Streisand and Diana Ross to Judy Garland and even Michael Jackson. That is, until they realized producer Javier Limn had been secretly recording them. When she looked up and saw tears in his eyes, she wondered what she had done. “I thought we broke something, I thought we did something wrong!" she exclaims. Sung with the kind of beautiful melancholy that only a fadista can bring, it instead ends up as a bonus track on the North American release of Terra (Four Quarters Entertainment / World Connection), a musical proclamation that Mariza has come into her own. Terra will be released Stateside on January 27, 2009, to coincide with an extensive three-month 47 city tour of North America.


Mariza calls “Smile" a gift, a “present for the kindness people have given to me through all this time, trying to understand me. It's my way of saying 'Thank you'." And audiences have certainly enjoyed watching her transform. If her debut album Fado em Mim was an effort to establish her knowledge of the fado tradition, having grown up in her father's fado house in Lisbon, her second release Fado Curvo allowed her to put her own stamp on the tradition while demonstrating that there are more ways than one to move artistically from point A to point B. Her next release, Transparente, a more intimate, classically-inspired take on fado, expressed Mariza as a more experienced and sophisticated artist.......

One of America's favorite toys -- Legos -- turn 50
By Lisa Davis / McClatchy Newspapers

http://nwitimes.com/articles/2009/0...nment/docc29d456946014b458625752f001f290b.txt

Ever wondered what percentage of the Earth's weight is made up of Legos? The iconic plastic building brick turned 50 this year, and the Lego company estimates that in the course of five decades it has sold some 400 billion Legos.

From the original rectangular brick, Lego now makes more than 2,400 shapes. The Lego universe has expanded to include online games, movies, books, amusement parks, even a line of kids' shoes.

Lego has even spawned its own language. "Brickfilms" are films, usually in stop-motion, made by fans. A LUG is a Lego User Group, an online community for fans. MOC stands for My On Creation, fans' building projects -- usually posted on LUGs. AFOLs are Adult Fans of Lego.

The list of things re-created in Legos is mind-boggling. Aircraft carriers. Yankee Stadium. Nativity scenes. Wedding-cake toppers. Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video. The "Mona Lisa", the Parthenon. Portraits of Barack Obama

Six John Does, accused of illegally sharing song files at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, won’t have to face the music in federal court.

U.S. District Judge Laurie Smith Camp on Tuesday dismissed Arista Records et al. v. Does 1-6, a lawsuit against the still-unknown defendants that had been filed in March by a dozen record labels.

The lawsuit alleged that the six people shared songs from artists such as Vanilla Ice, Michael Jackson and Guns N Roses over UNL’s Internet service provider. The names of the six are still unknown; they were identified in the lawsuit only by unique Internet protocol addresses.....

hey this o.k :) i found this news :flowers: i hope this news is o.k i just like to help out that's who i'm in my heart o.k :) enjoy the news :) good day


here is website:http://www.westword.com/2009-01-08/...r-today-s-r-b-is-a-shadow-of-its-former-self/

From Akon to Usher, today's R&B is a shadow of its former self

VIBE music editor Sean Fennessey recently posited that contemporary R&B music has gone soft. He's on to something: There are too many emasculated, blue-balled crooners on the radio right now with no true identity. (Hell, whispering whiner/platinum sensation Lloyd's last name is Polite.) But Fennessey overlooks a larger point: R&B isn't just ineffectual right now; it's pointless, derivative and boring. In terms of social relevance, innovation and pure originality, no one approaches titans of earlier generations like Marvin Gaye, Sam Cooke, Otis Redding or even Michael Jackson and Prince. R&B is missing a transformative star but seems unlikely to find one right now, because as a genre, it barely exists.

Though always something of a hodgepodge, R&B was once a formidable format, a combination of soul, gospel and funk whose best artists didn't hesitate to experiment with style. But in the '90s and '00s, R&B became pigeonholed. Attempting to piggyback on hip-hop's popularity, its artists use rap beats and hire MCs for guest verses, resulting in a sound that's virtually indistinguishable from rap. (Try turning off the vocals of Ray J's "Sexy Can I," for example, and see if you can tell the difference.) In fact, one of R&B's biggest names, Akon, is so strongly associated with hip-hop that he's sometimes mistakenly referred to as a rapper.

Fusing genres was traditionally a big part of rhythm and blues — Ray Charles initially made a career out of it. But since New Jack Swing injected a street mentality and rowdy back beats in the late '80s, R&B has shown little desire to evolve or take creative risks. Its crooners have become largely segmented onto urban radio stations, inspiring one mildly successful format-following clone after another.

The watering-down of the genre is one reason it's been disparaged as "Rap & Bullshit." Another is because it's artistically moribund. The vast majority of R&B lyrics are sappy, disingenuous, corny and cliched. Enough already with promises of everlasting fidelity sung by men sleeping with King models, and to female empowerment anthems written by women with multimillionaire husbands. The contrast with hip-hop is especially stark considering rap's creative breakthroughs of late. Lil Wayne, Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco and plenty of others are challenging the status quo; for proof, look no further than 808s & Heartbreak, West's top-selling, experimental elegy.

The most successful R&B artists, meanwhile, aren't nearly as compelling. Take Ne-Yo, a decorated singer-songwriter who has become the new face of the format. His recent album Year of the Gentleman is a commercial smash and was well-received by the likes of Rolling Stone — which gave it four stars out of five — and the Los Angeles Times, which gave it three and a half out of four. Even I didn't totally trash it.

And yet...were we not so starved for R&B possessing even a whisper of creativity, we might have more soberly assessed this banal work. Monster hit "Miss Independent" is arguably the most derivative piece of pop in recent memory. Profoundly asserting that women who have their own thing going on are cool, the song rips off a concept espoused by Webbie and Lil Boosie last year, by Destiny's Child in 2000, and by Susan B. Anthony in 1852. The track's beat is stolen wholesale from Justin Timberlake's 'My Love' and any number of other Timbaland joints, while Ne-Yo's singing is filled, like Chris Brown's, with grating melisma. I'll give him credit for collaborating with NKOTB — even I can't resist "Single" — but let's be honest: If Ne-Yo were to stop making records today, would anyone remember him in twenty years?

In truth, Ne-Yo and R&B's other reigning king, Usher, are little more than bland, well-dressed Michael Jackson wannabes with good choreographers. Neither has done as much to push the genre forward as R. Kelly, who's at least got a stack of undeniably addictive singles to his credit and is willing to take musical chances. (Unfortunately, Kels doesn't qualify as a respected R&B icon because he hasn't made strong albums and his legacy is tied up in his perversions.)

As for queens like Mary J. Blige, Beyoncé and Keyshia Cole, they offer little more than overproduced girl jams that only discerning fans can tell apart. None seems to take any pleasure in craft. While all three women have fascinating life stories — Cole's mother was a prostitute and drug addict — you'd never know it from their bland discographies, full of boilerplate love-lost laments and CVS-friendly stay-strong anthems. The music from second-tier soulstresses like Ciara and Ashanti, meanwhile, doesn't hold up without the benefit of gruff male voices to contrast their meek vocals. (If you've heard Ashanti's latest album, The Declaration, you know this, but like most everybody else in the world, you haven't.)

Crooners such as John Legend, Anthony Hamilton, Robin Thicke and Raheem DeVaughn have gotten critical kudos as well, but they all fall short. Take DeVaughn's latest album, Love Behind the Melody. Though almost universally praised, the work contains some of the most basic, cliched lyricism imaginable. His Grammy-nominated hit "Woman" is about, get this, how great the female gender is. The words aren't even original; lyrics like "You a lady in the streets and a freak when it's bedroom time" should be credited to Ludacris, and "I appreciate so much/Like the 'I love you' feeling girl when we touch" should be credited to a poor translation of an Italian Hallmark card, perhaps. Meanwhile, DeVaughn's offer to "appetize ya or main course ya" on "Customer" is less poetry than soundtrack to a porno flick filmed at Red Lobster

Um I thought his name was Dr. Tohme. I thought the "Tohme Tohme" was an error. :scratch: That would be funny if it was a misprint and now all the media sources are calling this person Tohme Tohme. :doh:
 
Re: Wednesday, January 7, 2009

Thanx for news and mentionings MsSnoop and rockstar. I'm wishing him and his kids well living in the new place.

I really like this part cuz it might mean now he's more actively working on projects including a new album.
 
Re: Wednesday, January 7, 2009

The article from the Las Vegas website was reasonable. However, why is that tabloid story for MJ "giving" the catalogue to Paul still being posted on the news thread? Again, just because an article has Mike's name of it does not mean that the news is accurate.
 
Re: Wednesday, January 7, 2009

Guys can we please stop putting on these old news especally bout this stupid "sickness" rumor....we all know that michael is fine & well
So i dont see the need to keep putting them on all the time.

Too true. R&B is one of the worst genre's in music today. It's been that way for years now. There's no melody worst of all and like the writer very diligently pointed out, it's practically impossible to decern the difference between one song and the next. It is sad when the best they have to offer is Ne-Yo, Chris Brown, Usher, etc... The whole scene sucks.
