O1LT.COM "HOT AND BLACK" REPORT-JEZZY, COCO-T, JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE!!!
By L.T. Dinwiddie
Atlanta rapper Young Jeezy debuts at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 with his second Def Jam album, "The Inspiration," The set sold 352,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan, more than doubling the 172,000-unit first week for his 2005 debut, "Let's Get It: Thug Motivation." First single "I Luv It" is top 30 on both the Billboard Hot 100 and the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts.
At No. 2 on The Billboard 200 is 2006 "American Idol" winner Taylor Hicks, whose self-titled Arista debut sold 298,000 in its first week. That's a drop-off from 2005 winner Carrie Underwood's debut week with "Some Hearts," which sold 315,000. That album leaps 10-6 in its 57th week on the chart on a 58% increase to 199,000.
In a week where every non-debuting album in the top 10 enjoys a sales increase, the Disney soundtrack to "Hannah Montana" inches up 4-3 on an 18% increase to 274,000, while the "NOW! 23" compilation rises 5-4 on a 27% jump to 235,000. Josh Groban's "Awake" (143/Reprise) is up 11-5 on an 83% increase to 222,000, while Daughtry's self-titled RCA debut holds at No. 7 despite a 17% increase to 181,000. Both Groban and Underwood enjoyed a boost from a Dec. 11 appearance on "The Oprah Winfrey Show." FULL STORY
Sweet Jesus!! All I want for Christmas is you CoCo-T!
When I saw this sketch on SNL this weekend I wailed up with tears. As I'm getting older I have learned to have an appreciation for the Saturday Night Live crew. They always find a way to keep me interested (most ot the time) and Justin Timberlake as host of this saturday's show was classic TV. Not for nothing, but Justin was in almost every skit that night. He also played double duty as both host and musical performer. These two skits in particualr had me rolling. Chem them out. They are truly worth the time!
