Mariah Carey seems to be taking it all back to where she started, as competition grows in her relationship with Nick Cannon.
Now, industry insiders expect MiMi to join with ex-husband, Tommy Mottola’s label, for release of a Valentine’s Day album. The album is said to be in tribute to Nick. But, trouble is said to be brewing in the pair’s marriage. That’s because sources say Nick is bothered by Mariah’s success on the silver screen.
“I think it bothers him that Mariah is a hotter film property than he is right now,” says a source. “Nick told Mariah early on how fickle Hollywood is and she shouldn’t get her hopes up to be a movie star. Turns out she’s eclipsed Nick’s acting career by leaps and bounds.”
Sources say Nick was initially under the impression that Mariah would remain the singer in the family, while he followed an acting career. (more…)

Because Jacky Jasper isn’t a fan of awards shows, he’s chosen to hook up his fans with his set of 2010 Grammy Award tickets. Know why? Because a true pimp doesn’t let anything go to waste.
So, if you join Hollywood Street King’s mailing list… Tell us the name of Jacky Jasper’s newest band, the title of the album, and the reason why Jacky chose that title, then you could be the winner of two tickets to the biggest award show in the music business.
No one can deny the fact that Jacky looks out for his faithful readers. Can anyone remember the last time Wendy Williams, MediaTakeOut, AllHipHop, Bossip, or that wart hog sandra rose did anything for you? I think not.
HSK has learned music mogul, Andre Harrell, has openly admitted to being gay.
The man who discovered Sean “Puffy” Combs, is expected to make the news about his sexual orientation, internationally confirmed, in the near future.
You may remember, Harrell once served as President and CEO of Uptown Records – a label which was once home to artists including Mary J Blige and Jodeci.
I wonder what Harrell’s former protege, P Diddy has to say about this one!
GENE SIMMONS is pissed his band KISS never made it to the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame. Simmons said. the Disco bands are in the Hall of Fame, Rappers, and Yiddish Folk groups are in the Hall Of Fame, what about my group KISS?
Simmons is saying Kiss has been around for 25 years and his band needs to be recognized. Gene is pissed KISS lost the ballot THIS TIME to METALLICA, JEFF BECK, and BOBBY WOMACK Abba, The Stooges, & Genesis.
Simmons said, the guys on the ballot board ain’t shit they can go get him a sandwich anytime he wants. In other words he’s saying the Hall Of Fame Board is a bunch of gopher’s, and he’s probably right cause the cooperative high-up guys don’t know shit about music and since the Record Industry tanked its fair to say (more…)
Eminem has done it again. Billboard is following Nielsen Soundscan and naming Eminem as the Top Artist of the Decade. Six of the seven studio albums and collections Em released in this decade reached or debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, while two of his 20 songs to chart on the Hot 100 singles tally hit the top spot there (”Lose Yourself” and “Crack a Bottle”).
Other than Eminem NO-ONE else on this list is actually worthy beyond their sales numbers. Most of these acts are just hype with little to no substance. Usher at #2 is now most famous for his brief marriage, child and divorce. Nelly is completely irrelevant, 50 Cent has moved on to biiger more profitable dealings, Alicia Keys is a hack, Nickleback is sub-par at best, Britney Spears doesn’t even sing and Jay Z is out dated by a decade having produced no original music or talent in years!
Top 10 Artists of the Decade according to Billboard: (more…)
Glam rocker, Marilyn Manson can no longer call Interscope Records his home. That’s because his last album put Interscope’s head honchos in a “Coma” after only sold 121,000 copies. That’s a tremendous difference to the more than nine million copies of “Coma” sold.
Now, Marilyn Manson is announcing that he’s happy with not being “restrained” under the Interscope umbrella, citing he’ll now have entire creative control over his material. Sure…and we so believe you Marilyn!!! (more…)
