Solange Covers Groove Theory's 'Tell Me' (Video)

Solange recently covered Groove Theory's hit 90's single "Tell Me" at a store opening in NYC.

This is my song and I think Solange did a good job.

This song brings back great memories, I'm talking Reeboks, Jordans, baggy jeans and people washing your car windshield without permission and asking you for a $1 for making it look worse...it's a NYC thing. 

I was a little worried there, I noticed she was spending more time DJ'ing and not really putting out new material. Good to see that she is still putting those vocals to work.

Twitterati: Solange Mad At The Lack Of Attention Beyonce Received After Breaking Grammy Awards Record

Don't you just love twitter? I mean....I'm not crazy about it when people are posting random ish that is something about nothing, but I do heart the social network for getting people's true thoughts.

One of the celebs that is no stranger to expressing her true thoughts via twitter decided to vent her frustrations with the media not praising her sister,Beyonce, for setting a new record for the most awards received during the ceremony by a female artists.

Yummy Pix: Solange shaves her hair off

It is officially an epidemic, the fem-baldie is here to stay folks. Solange was photoed in LA with her new cut walking the streets like it was her very own cat walk, here are the pics....
The site where I got the pictures from are claiming that Solange did it as a response to being compared to her big sis Beyonce, I say nay. I think she did it because she has been wanting to do it for sometime now.

Plus, there is this thing called "The Big Chop" that us natural girls are familiar with, maybe she is just thinking about letting her natural coils shine and took the big step of chopping off her relaxed locks....
Is this the new trend? Every star is defying the standards of beauty by taking to their scalps with clippers and giving their hair a new kind of lean.

Personally, this style does not appeal to me not because it is so controversial but because I wonder if in two weeks after doing it would I regret it; my answer, yup.

Yummy Pics: A Knowles-Carter family affair

Beyonce and fam were photoed at a club named Saint Germain Club in Zurich over the weekend doing what they do best, entertaining. Here are the pics.

Solange was there and took to the stage. She reminds me of Alice from Alice in Wonderland with her bangs, very cute....

Jay was there to hang out with wifey and sister-in-law. More and more Jay reminds me of those men that sit in the park all day and battle each other in chess with a bottle of Heineken in one hand. He's been really laid back and care-free lately, I can dig it....

Black and White can do wonders for photo's, I felt like I was looking at stills from a Ralph Lauren advertisement. Beyonce looked like she got her drink on while she partied...good times.

Live Performance: Solange-Pepsi Smash

This morning I came across a video of Solange performing a cover of "Viva La Vida", a song made popular by Coldplay and a song I absolutely adore.



I really had to ask, has Solange proven herself yet or are people still skeptical that the girl can blow? She did a really good job on this song.

Usually when artist perform covers from other genres they ruin the beauty of the original but she did this song justice by adding just a bit of funk to it.

Live Performance: Solange-Tony (Jimmy Fallon)

TONY Jimmy Fallon Live

You see, this is why I rocks with Solange. I like this girl and a lot of people have failed to give her a chance because of her sibling but hey, she can remain my little secret.

Solange recently stopped by Jimmy Fallon's late night show and put it down on the stage with yours truly's favorite song on Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams "Tony". The ballad rendition of the original at the beginning was fire, I love the precision of her high notes.

Rumor has it, Solange is heading back into the studio and is working on her new album and just might be working on a duet with her big sis Beyonce that will appear on the album. Don't get too excited, it hasn't been confirmed as of yet, but it would be really interesting, no?

Music Rumors: Did Solange get dropped from Geffen Records?

According to Black Voices, Solange has been dropped by her label Geffen/Interscope Records. But the story gets a little deeper.

Apparently, the news of Kelly Rowland being dropped from Columbia was done on purpose (so shocked) so that attention could be drawn away from Solange's axed contract with her label. Oh, but it gets even deeper...

A source goes on to say that Matthew Knowles is in talks with Epic Records to sign Solange. Now prior to their meetings, Epic Records had already offered a deal to Kelly to sign with their label. However, seeing that there are talks between Matty and the label, the deal with Kelly might be off.

"Amanda was really into signing Kelly and then Matthew started meeting with her about Solange. I'm told he used his influence in the Sony system with Beyonce to complicate the existing offer to Kelly and then the deal ultimately didn't happen," the source explained." -via Black Voices

Well, according to Solange who took to her Twitter upon getting word of the news of her being dropped or supposedly being dropped, she had this to say

"Ren and Stimpy “you stooppid idioots part 19″ lol. Today, April 7, 09 I am still on Music World/Geffen/ Interscope records..."

Hmmm OK....

It is being said that there is a slight chance that Kelly might be announcing a new record deal in the weeks to come.

Solange Knowles involved in a bus crash

And thankfully everything is OK. According to sources, the singer's bus crashed yesterday 03.10 after traveling from Austin, Texas on its way to Houston.

A member of her entourage injured his hand because of the impact but Solange left the scene unharmed. This is great news given her NyQuil fiasco that occurred last month.

Solange had this to say about the crash via Twitter,

"I'm on the phone baking like Betty in my bus bunk and CRASH! Thought I was dead, but turns out we ran into a family of dear...I can't believe it. We're all ok though," she said. "Guitar player flew out of bunk [and] hurt his hand a little. But I'm saying a huge prayer of thanks right now. God is good ALL the time!"

Isn't it crazy how Solange can Twitt during the worst of situations?! Twitter sure is getting a whole lot of free promotion this year...

It's great to hear that Solange is OK. When I first heard the news I was more worried for her son than her, sorry Solange I still love you.

Hey! I know this is not the best time to say this but...maybe this is Karma for you throwing that mic stand into the audience? ~shrugs shoulders~

M.Y. Inbox: Beyonce and Solange cover Exile magazine

Thank you to Brianna from Michigan for sending this one in. Beyonce and Solange are the cover girls for Exile, a magazine based out in Japan. That is a very "iRobot" kind of dress Bey has on.

And what is up with the sheep mittens Solange? hmm whatever works...

Live Performance: Solange- T.O.N.Y. + Sandcastle Disco

Solange performed live for AOL's Black Voices recently and did a great job. Solange is such a talented artist and people will probably never give her a chance because she happens to be the sibling of a superstar; but trust, the girl can bring it.

Solange dropped her album Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams last year and it is a banger. If you don't have it I suggest you get yourself a copy.
