The Roots Black Thought Supports The Ladies

The Roots Black Thought Supports The Ladies:
The Roots' own Black Thought is doing his part to help the young people from his hometown live an healthier and more active life. With over 900,000 young people in Philadelphia are overweight or obese, the GrassROOTS Community Foundation held its third annual health forum and Let's Move It Philly! charity concert.

Building on First Lady Michelle Obama's initiative to promote physical and mental health, the health forum kicked off a day of education and entertainment. Guest speakers covered everything from eating a well-balanced meal to answering questions, dispelling myths and educating the audience on sexual activity. Over 150 people attended the event which included a speech from Mayor Michael Nutter and performance by spoken word artist Ursula Rucker. Black Thought was on hand for a special meet and greet.

Black Thought sat down for an exclusive interview with 4UMF. In addition to discussing his charity at length, the legendary rapper spoke about The Roots' upcoming album. Tentatively titled & Then You Shoot Your Cousin, the band's 11th album will follow in the footsteps of "undun" and "How I Got Over" and is expected to hit the shelves in 2014.

"We're painting a picture," he explains. "Using each song as a separate piece of a larger puzzle. It's going to be dense, it's going to be graphic."

The Philly native is also revealed he is exploring the possibility of releasing a solo album which will feature a singing Black Thought. Expect features with Raheem DeVaughn, TV On The Radio's Tunde Adebimpe, New Orlean's Dr. John, Kenny Gamble and more.

"I'm working on a project,a solo effort where I do a lot more singing than writing."

Check out the full interview with Black Thought and find out what people in the streets are saying about him:

Terrell Owens aka T.O. recently went to court to secure lowered child support payments. Here's the details:

The former NFL star had originally been ordered to pay between $5,000 and $20,000 per child per month - and with no new football contract, he was seriously struggling to make ends meet.

But now, we're told the new payment plans - the details of which are sealed - are way more affordable … and "accurately reflect the amount of money [Terrell] is making."

It gets even better - we're told T.O. was also able to establish visitation in some cases, something he had never asked for before.
Sources say Owens "is in a good place and this was the best way to start off the new year."

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Help is on the way.

That's the message celebrities and music stars sent to storm victims across the South on Thursday night during a star-studded benefit concert on CMT.

Hank Williams Jr. kicked off "Music Builds: The CMT Disaster Relief Concert" at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville with a rendition of "I Saw the Light", sung with the Blind Boys of Alabama. Little Big Town gave a haunting performance of the Coldplay song "Fix You", and Lady Antebellum performed a funky medley that included Bob Marley's "Three Little Birds" and their own hit, "I Run To You".

President Barack Obama appeared in a video message from a manufacturing plant in Indiana to praise volunteers, first responders and local, state and federal officials for their heroic efforts after the deadly tornadoes and continued flooding along the Mississippi River. He encouraged Americans to donate to the Red Cross, calling the U.S. "a nation of people who look out for each other."

Nicole Kidman, Shania Twain, Carrie Underwood, Courtney Cox, Taylor Swift and other big-name celebrities also appeared in video messages, urging donations and telling stories of destruction and survival. "American Idol" judges Randy Jackson, Steven Tyler, Jennifer Lopez, and host Ryan Seacrest sent in well wishes from the "American Idol" set.

More than 300 people were killed across seven states two weeks ago, more than 200 in Alabama alone, when a record number of tornadoes ripped through the region. The storm system left many communities across the South in ruin.

Randy Owen, lead singer of the legendary country group Alabama, spoke emotionally about the 34 people who died from the band's hometown of DeKalb County.

"These were people that we knew and friends of ours," he said, before dedicating the song "My Home's In Alabama" to everyone back home and in the surrounding areas.

The Red Cross estimates that it will spend as much as $31 million responding to the disasters that have occurred in the past couple weeks. Additionally, hundreds of Red Cross workers are providing food and shelter to people along the Mississippi River in Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi whose homes have flooded. They are preparing to expand relief operations further south as the high waters flow downriver.

The organization has opened over 170 shelters and provided more than 14,000 overnight stays to people in need since March 31.

Other performers at the CMT benefit included Tim McGraw, Keith Urban, Ronnie Dunn, Gretchen Wilson, Sara Evans, Alan Jackson and Trace Adkins.

Kellie Pickler, model Niki Taylor, Olympic figure skater Scott Hamilton, Montgomery Gentry and Clint Black were among the stars who took donations through a phone bank.

Proceeds from the concert will benefit the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund. Victims can also apply for federal aid at DisasterAssistance.gov.

CMT will announce the total raised at the CMT Music Awards June 8.

The workshop will give participants avenues to engage their senses, scribe affirmations, and go-go get sexy on em'! Seduce yourself first and the rest will follow.

Sight: Colors can evoke emotions just as much as what we hear and feel. Colors are powerful indicators of who we are. Perhaps, you may be a beige, black, and white sort of gal and for a change brown or gray. However, you can be a little bold by adding color in places that only you see until you feel more comfortable such as red or hot pink panties, vixen noir toe nail polish! Add a spike to your pumps or dare to wear red shoes

Taste: Food is a source of energy and rejuvenation but some foods for example, berries, grapes and apples are food for enticement.

Touch: fabric has away of make us feeling good. Materials such as silk, satin, cotton, cashmere, hot bubble bath or shower.

Sound: Music is a natural healer and the confidence we need can be found in the rhythm of our personal sound tracks. Music can set the mood so in the morning get in a mode of worship as you get ready for the day. Hit the car and get in a grove with a song with the vibe you want to create.

Smell: Your lotion, oil, bath spray or perfume make a statement to others but can also be a ritual for you. Oils such as grapefruit, orange, lotus, sandalwood and or vanilla for example can take you a million miles away without leaving where ever you are.

The divorce proceedings between rapper Nas and his estranged wife, singer Kelis have been going back and forth for awhile now.

Earlier this week, Nas told a judge that he couldn't afford to pay Kelis the child and spousal support ordered by the court. The court also ordered that Nas pay more than $87,000 in back spousal and child support. Not to mention, he has to pay Kelis $10,000 a month in spousal support.

According to TMZ, Nas makes about $152,031 a month, but the rapper says he makes "substantially less than that amount" and wants the judge to view his financial books

BRIAN MCKNIGHT You Are The Father (Maury Voice)

Brian McKnight is paying child support on a 1-year-old boy bearing his name -- and his baby mama is using Kevin Federline's attorney to get her money

McKnight was in court last week for a child support hearing over little Evan Brian McKnight. The mother, Miriam Moreno, hired Mark Vincent Kaplan — who repped K-Fed in his divorce from Britney Spears.

We don’t know if there has been an official paternity test — but seeing as the kid has the last name McKnight, and McKinight is paying up child support … well, you figure it out.

A rep for McKnight had no comment.

The curtains may have closed on the 82nd annual Academy Awards, but the celebration has just gotten under way for Mo'Nique's big win Sunday night (March 7).

The outspoken actress saw years of hard work pay off when she took home the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her groundbreaking performance as an abusive mother in "Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire." Just like when Will Smith, Denzel Washington and Halle Berry took home Hollywood's most coveted prize, Mo'Nique's shining moment was celebrated throughout the hip-hop community.

"Go Mo go!!!" Diddy wrote on Twitter. "Congrats!!!! Let's go!"

"CONGRATULATIONS MoNIQUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Nicki Minaj tweeted.

"From Soul Plane to winning an Oscar!" radio personality Ed Lover marveled on Twitter. "Congrats Mo'Nique! We are soo proud of you!"

"I'm glad Mo'Nique won," Q-Tip added. "She's a cool down to earth woman."

"Congratulations Monique!" Soulja Boy Tell'em wrote. "You are a queen."

But Mo'Nique's big night wasn't just about her win. Her emotional acceptance speech brought the audience at the Kodak Theatre to their feet.

"I would like to thank the Academy for showing that it can be about the performance and not the politics," Mo'Nique said. "To my amazing husband, Sidney - thank you for showing me...More MO'NIQUE
