Round And Round We Go

Good day single ladies and jumpoffs.

Well, as you can see, Rhythmless Nation Inc. is under new management. We went through a corporate restructuring, and now have a new look. If you don’t like it, live with it.


I have some very devastating news to report. Janet Jackson Forum has died. I received word from my internet browser that http://www.janetjacksonforum.net/ was no longer in existence when I tried to access the site. Yes, these are very trying times for JJF regulars. Well there’s Angie’s board. But JJF is like a BMW, while Angie’s board is like a new Kia. Things just won’t be the same. There were so many classic moments on JJF. There were so many things that were revealed during the Angie Winfrey Show. UKbrad and Sweetdream’s epic “influence” on the board. That stupid mistake Mariahisthequeen made. That dumbass account “Janet=flop.” Seanbrodie, NextJJ, and so many others. And most importantly, how many threads I saw pop up every 30 seconds about people not liking “Weekend.” May 1, 2006, the day that will live in JJF infamy. So now we must lay JJF to rest (for the time being):






Funeral services for Janet Jackson Forum will be on July 1, 2009 at the First Street AME Episcopalian Baptist Church. The family will receive friends at 1814 Control Street for the viewing, and at Angie’s board for the reception. Janet Jackson Forum was the official forum during the All For You, Damita Jo, and 20 Y.O. eras for superstar Janet Jackson. Janet news, many fights, and cock shots were transmitted on this board. We have only our memories to remind of this great place. Janet Jackson Forum has gone on to be with the Lord.

Janet Jackson Forum is survived by siblings Janet-Xone, Janet-Love, Janet-Journey, Janet Media, and Janet-Online.

The burial will take place at http://www.archive.org/.

Angie has decided to have an open casket ceremony:









One woman was unable to take the news:




Janet Jackson Forum has gone on to be with the Lord.




Okay, well now that we’ve laid JJF to rest, let’s move on.


Well as guaranteed, we start with who is important, Janet Jackson. There isn’t much going on with Janet this month. I’m sure you’ve seen those pictures of her landing in London:







Yes, she’s looking good. And let’s hope Janet has a new stylist, because we all know Janet’s sense of fashion has never been red carpet couture. And here’s our savior a week later with Prince Azim



Janet, it’s time you act look your age. Lastly, Janet is off to start filming the second installment of Why Did I Get Married?. Thank you to the sound engineer on Twitter keeping the Janet stalkers abreast on Janet’s life.


So on Tuesday Mariah decided to insult American intelligence by releasing this nonsense:





Now, I’m not too sure what he goal was for this song, but Mariah Daily says it was to “diss” if you will, rapper Eminem. Don’t ask. Well Mariah, just be ready for the backlash. He’s going to attack you and rip you a new octave if he chooses to rebuttal. Is he going to talk about that gust of air Mariah calls a voice? Will he address Emanuel Lewis Mariah has for a husband? Is he going to talk about that debacle of a performance at the Inaugural Ball? I don’t know, stay tuned and find out!


In black music history, on June 30, 1975, the legendary Natalie Cole released this classic:



The song topped the R&B chart, and peaked at #6 on the Hot 100. She went on to win Best New Artist at the Grammys, and winning Best R&B Vocal Female successfully ending Aretha’s 8 year streak, and pretty much ending Aretha’s career in the latter half of the 1970s.


Rihanna isn’t really a black artist. However the Slave Trade says she is. So I guess I can give her a little bit of shine. Rihanna’s new song leaked the other day. I guess she’s putting out albums more often than I fill up my tank. You can preview it here. I haven’t listened to the song in full, and probably wont, but I did enjoy the first 30 seconds. That’s all my music tolerance level could take from her. I didn’t like it so I had to put an “X” on it. Now that her face is back in place, she’s ready to testify against Chris Tyson in court. You can check that story out here on Rihanna Daily.


The mother ship has landed:



Yes, ladies and gents, Queen Beysus has arrived with her US leg of her I Am…The Shit World Tour. Rolling Stone is already giving her good reviews which you can read here. Now it’s time for Beyoncé to see if she can match Britney’s gross, which she wont. However she will definitely give the better show. Because come on folks, Britney’s “show” is nothing more than her backup dancers running around the stage. She’s not the ringleader in this spectacle. If you don’t have tickets to see the best performer of this generation, I suggest you get on Ticketmaster and purchase some tickets for your nearest town.


If you didn’t catch TvOne’s documentary on 80s R&B group Shalamar, I urge you to watch it. They were one of the pioneering sounds in R&B during the 80s only rivaled by Atlantic Starr. You may have heard this masterpiece:



So if you haven’t seen it, it’s on Youtube. If not catch it on TvOne.


There isn’t much going on in the rap world. Well I don’t pay attention to rap really. If it’s not 2pac, Snoop, or a few others than I just don’t care. Egotistical maniac Kanye West decided to hop on Beyoncé’s song “Ego.” Why? I don’t know. The song was just fine before he made it cliché. Allegedly, Black Eye Peas member Will.I.Am assaulted media queen Perez Hilton.



I only have one thing to say:



That’ll teach him to run his mouth about Janet and Michael. We don’t play that.

Speaking of our other savior, there have been major developments in the Michael Jackson – Raymone Baine case. Apparently this woman is suing for $44 million, which of course she won’t even get half of what she’s suing for. Suing Michael for money is growing tiresome. It was cute in the late 80s and early 90s, but at this point it’s just overkill. Anyway, as scheduled, his shows will go on for his UK “This Is It” tour. Word is Janet is supposed to be performing as well. At this point, MJ can’t afford to get outshined by his little sis again. We all know the first time it occurred....

We Are Family

Good day folks.


Well as you may not know, June 1st began the start of Black Music Month. So you see we get two months out the year. does the Bankhead bounce. Anywho, I originally started this blog to celebrate all of the black artists past or present that have made a difference in the black community. However, it seemed the only person who really mattered to my generation is Janet Jackson. And my ideas went out the window. You’ll live.

So today, and probably for the rest of the month, I will try my best to celebrate black artists. I’ll try and make a round of all of the black artists that have new projects afoot, successful or flop.

So let’s start with what’s most important:



As reported earlier, Tyler Perry is working on the second installment of Why Did I Get Married. The cast will feature the same ensemble as the original. One of the Janet-Xone stalkers was kind enough to hunt down Lamman Rucker for information and he told the “informant” that the movie is based on the three couples 3 years later. And what’s even better, our Perfect Patty is going to have a bigger role. I expect Perfect Patti to get an Academy Award nomination, as well as Golden Globe, SAG, Primetime Emmy, and Source Award nominations and wins. And maybe the other actors will actually win an award, seeing how Janet was the only person to win an award from the first film.

So next we have Usher Raymond.



An avid fan of the Jackson clan, I can do nothing but give him the utmost respect. Because let’s face it kids, Beysus and Usher are the pretty much the same. They’re the only two black artists we’ve got running the industry. Beysus has been outselling the girls (except Alicia Keys) since she came out. And Usher has been outselling just about everyone. So as we know, Usher has an album coming out that will be titled "Monster." Now let’s hope this album is the monster “Confessions” was back in 2004, considering Here I Stand didn't do as well. This negro is the reason why Janet had to settle for #2 on the Billboard 200. Bitch. Also, Usher is said to be divorcing his wife whatsherface. Now we don’t know if this is true, but keep hope alive. I know the girls think Usher can do better. So girls, time to go back to the closet and get those freakum dresses out. And to maintain standards:

Here are a few examples of acceptable freakum dresses to wear on your person:

Okay kids, learn the difference.

Next we have “The Voice”, Ms. Whitney Houston.



As we know there have been reports of Whitney in the studio working on an album since back when gas was $1.23 a gallon. But now ladies and gents, the wait has ended. Ms. Whitney Houston finally gets a release date; September 1, 2009. Yes chillun, Whitney Houston is coming back. Now that she’s put down the pipe and picked up a microphone, we can expect a single out late June – early July. Now we know he’s voice isn’t strong enough to pull off those old power ballads, so it’ll be interesting to see what she sounds like. Will she out-sing everyone like she did in the 80s and 90s? Will she get good reviews? Will she sell? Stay tuned and find out.



Also releasing an album this year is Mariah Carey












I joke I joke...anyway, we have Mariah:



Welp, the kids on Mariah Daily have a ticker for the release of Mariah’s next single, “Obsessed.” I don’t know why, but I’m kind of excited. Let’s all pray that her voice is back in shape. After she screwed up put a new spin on “Hero” at the Inaugural Ball, I’m sure we’re all rooting for her to come back. However the drawback is I pretty much know what to expect from the single and album. Here’s the layout of the album that is to be released:

1. A song about wanting to be with some man
2. A song about being with some man
3. A song about pain in a relationship
4. An inspirational song
5. A rent-a-rapper song
6. A song about having lost a man
7. A song about wanting a lost man to come back

That’s pretty much how albums 1-11 have played out. Let’s see if she can come with something different this time. Don’t hold your breath.


Finally, a great woman once said:

"I have tried to keep the standards high…we do not have to use the F-word, we do not have to pump and grind, we do not have to do some of these things to have longevity in our career."

That great woman is The Boss:



The quote comes from the Source Awards…which is now called the BET Awards. The quote was made in 2007, as Diana Ross was accepting her award for Lifetime Achievement. Was she speaking about Beyoncé getting bodied in her Dereon petal pushers? Was she speaking about 50 Cent running around the Shrine Auditorium like a slave being read their 14th Amendment rights? Was she speaking on artists showing up with their parole officers? Well anyway, the point is, she has tried to maintain standards in the music industry. With that being said, ladies and gentlemen, children of all ages, my soul can not take:











My sentiments exactly. I came across this coonery as I was browsing BW. I don’t post that often because the kids there don’t know how to respect your opinion. But anyhow, this is half-talent T-Pain's new $410,000 investment. I'm in a state of shock, and 3 heartbeats away from cardiac arrest. What have black artists come to? This is what they’re spending their money on? All this success and this is all we have to show for it? Oversized chains to validate inflated egos? Diamond encrusted chains to show off to the world? My poor soul can not take such coonery. I’ll leave you with this because I’m about to go to sleep. I’m tired. Get your thoughts together and we will address this at a later date.
