Contactmusic reports that, through three weeks, "Get Him to the Greek" has grossed $47,844,275 (plus nearly another $5 million internationally,
according to Box Office Mojo). This means that it has now eclipsed the
film's $40 million dollar production budget.
With a
music video on the way, Janelle Monae's
"Tightrope (Wondamix)" (
listen) is now available for digital purchase on
iTunes and
Amazon.com.
The Ness-affiliated
Official Street Radio is offering a free download of "I Be On That Money S***" by Reed Dollaz featuring Ness and Peedi Crakk. For the chorus, the song relies on a sample of Nicki Minaj from Robin Thicke's "Shakin' It 4 Daddy." The song was produced by Cardiak and is off of the upcoming mixtape, "The Official Takeover Round 1."
Los Angeles-based radio station Power 106 held their
Powerhouse 2010 concert in Anaheim, CA on June 19. Though not initially featured on the bill, Dirty Money made a surprise appearance, performing "Hello Good Morning."
You can see
some video (the audio cuts out a bit past half way through) and
photos.
Despite what was
previously reported, the
music video for Dirty Money's "Hello Good Morning (Remix)", featuring Rick Ross and Nicki Minaj, premiered today on BET's 106 & Park, according to a
tweet from the Bad Boy Records Twitter account. Sorry for the confusion.
For Billboard's
Mashup Monday feature, Janelle Monae sang Charlie Chaplin's "Smilie." Check out the clip below for her performance and, after that, she provides some thoughts on the song.
Read the full article to watch the clip (because it has an auto play advertisement).

The brand new music video for Diddy/Dirty Money's "Hello Good Morning (Remix)" has premiered on VEVO. It is supposed to
premiere on BET's 106 & Park tomorrow. The track features Rick Ross and Nicki Minaj. It follows the same visuals as the
original "Hello Good Morning" music video (
watch now), but with some new clips that keep it fresh.
I like the video a lot. It's a shame that the audio is not synced correctly, though, as it really does effect the experience of watching it. Hopefully that'll be fixed soon.
DiddyBlog.com launched today and
Diddy put out a call on Twitter for contributions and story tips. You can e-mail diddyblogdiddyblog [at] gmail [dot] com, if interested.
Back in early May,
Diddy announced that he would be launching a blog at DiddyBlog.com. And then, on Saturday,
he said it would launch this morning. You can now check it out at
DiddyBlog.com.
Before the site launched,
I offered some suggestions for how it could best be executed. Having spent some time on the site, I am pleasantly surprised with what I see and I really like what they've put together.
Visually, it's simple, but nice. Powered by
WordPress, it is quick loading, easy to read and visually strong. Everything looks good, except for the inspirational quotes being off the side of the screen, even on my large 1280x1024 resolution. But, that is a simple fix.
The blog is broken up into six categories: Inspire, Believe, Feel, Create, Love and Grow. They all feature multiple posts. There are 21 posts so far. That is a lot to digest and, if I had to guess, I would expect it will slow down a bit and that the initial rush of content is just so that the site wouldn't appear empty.
