Lady GaGa does not just release a deluxe album like everyone else and doesn’t put some fabulousness in it. She is preparing a surprise for all those die-hard gaga-heads. The booklet will contain a myriad of things all in the photo above. Some 3D glasses for the images and a bunch of fun tracks, one of which includes Beyonce!

Kuwait: Best place in the Middle East for press freedom
1
Speaking technically, Kuwait is currently #1 in the Middle East and the Arab World when it comes to freedom of the press. As much as we’d like to boast and rant on this accomplishment, it was not really due to Kuwait’s adamant effort on rectifying some of its freedom faults, but is a result of other countries faltering. This comes on because of Israel’s atrocious behavior in handling media rights during the horrific Gaza Strip massacre. Yes, Kuwait rose to #60 and became the Middle East’s champion merely because Israel fell hard. Inching closer is Lebanon right after at #61 (rising). Then the UAE at #86 and Qatar at #94, both of which steeply down. Still, is #60 good enough? It’s 60 out 175, which gives Kuwait a grade of 65.8/100. That’s a D!
Chris Brown finally apologizes
1I don’t buy it. This is too little, too late. He thought he could ease on down out of it but it’s not happening. Some of the media might have forgotten what went down exactly and this is the perfect time for the apology, not too far away from the incident yet far enough for people to forget the details. He should have had some jail time, not too long of a sentence, but some jail time. I am against the long jail sentence not because I think his crime was light, but because I believe in a form of humanitarianism that defies the system of extreme incarceration. At any rate, the apology should have been directed at Rihanna and he should have done more doing than talking. Nice top, though.
Exclusive: Mariah Carey debuts “Obsessed”

I just listened to Mariah’s “Obsessed” on the first radio station to debut it – Chicago B96. It’s in the same vain as “Touch My Body,” except it is lower tempo and has fiercer lyrics. It will impact radio just fine and should sell. The release of the album has been pushed to the earlier date of 25th August. This is almost the first time a Mariah album gets this treatment. Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel seems like it is ready to go and they must be confident about it. Listen to it by licking below:

Video: “Welcome To England” by Tori Amos
Tori Amos is one of my favorite artists of all time. The magic in her music surpasses many parallels in the music industry and earth in general. Yes, she is that good. Her new album Abnormally Attracted To Sin is set to debut May 18, 2009 right before I take a huge road trio from DC to New Orleans. i am very thankful for that as every Tori album to me is journey on its own. From start to finish, surely she won’t disappoint. And judging from this first single, it’s going to be a stunner. Don’t frown at the video, she just went independent – focus on the tune. The video is only available on Yahoo and I couldn’t wait for it to make the YouTube rounds to get it to you. Check it!
Visionare magazine shines…

I can’t wait to get my hands on visionare’s new issue. As a journalist I always give props to magazines that try new things on print. Visionare dedicated the whole issue to the art of pop-up and origami. Now, that’s sexy. And costly, might I add. I love it when avant garde meets print.
