LOOK OUT FOR LEMAR THIS NOVEMBER

So I was just on Lemar's official site, when I caught his new album release date for "The Reason." Finally some good R&B music! Right underneath the album cover for "The Reason" are two additional promo photos taken from Lemar's official myspace page.

Listen to the song here if you can't see the embedded video.

November 24th (Lemar's album release date) cannot come any soon as Love Soul can contest to. Love Soul interview Lemar who talked about "The Reason" recording sessions.

The official download date for "If She Only Knew" in the UK is on November 7th. Until then re-read my earlier post on Lemar's music right here.


Boris Kodjoe and his wife Nicole Ari Parker attended the opening of Tyler Perry's historic TV & Film studio in Atlanta, Georgia last night. (FYI: Boris appeared in Tyler's 2006 film, "Madea's Family Reunion.) Don't they just look like they step off a fashion magazine cover??!

Updated: I added four more photos of Boris and Nicole from Calvin Evans.

Iman (in a yellow and white ruched Rachel Roy dress) attended New York's Foundation Fundraising Gala. Clearly this woman doesn't have a off day as she looked great as usually. Anyhow Iman posed alongside Mayor Bloomberg, Robert De Niro and Grace Hightower. (No signs of her husband David Bowie, though.)

On the fashion tip, Iman wore another yellow Rachel Roy design last year at Saks. Which look do you prefer?

My random thoughts:
Watching the African Channel yesterday got my attention fixed on Gabon-based artist Oliver N'Goma. Check out his two addictive reggae-infused singles, "Mueste" and "Bane."

Looooves it! Check out his Best of CD here.
disclaimer: Do I really need to place a disclaimer on Oliver's music?? Do I??!
