Rap star 50 Cent said that if he didn’t beat Kanye West in terms of record sales when their new releases came head to head, he would retire. Well, Kanye beat him and there’s still no retirement announcement from 50.

It seems that 50 found a way around his retirement saying to Gatecrasher that his album “was No. 1 internationally the week it came out. It was the No. 1 European album!” Apart from teaching us how to go back on our word, 50 also teaches us a good geography lesson.

But if you want to get technical, he does have a point. He did beat Kanye to the top spot on the album and singles chart in Europe.

Blake Lewis is the popular runner-up on the sixth season of American Idol. Born in Redmond, Washington, Lewis started singing at age five and competed in statewide talent contests while in high school. He became a beat-boxer at 17, inspired by the then Seattle-based a cappella group M-Pact. I love the single. It was everything I expected. And what’s more he looks cute too, so that all makes for an interesting new superstar in the making. I also like it when there are newer people on the horizon to replace the old sagging music artist that have been around for eternity and never with of retiring from the music scene. It’s kinda always refreshing to see new kids on the block trying to make a name for them in this bloody shit cut-throat mouth wagging all but insulting world.

You know you love Ricky Martin, that Latin heartthrob who blew onto the scene and sung to us about “Livin’ La Vida Loca” and won himself countless female fans in the process.

He will also be hosting with some help from the Blue Man Group and there will be plenty of other artists at this scenario too.There are various other artists who will perform in this awards ceremony including the likes of Ivy Queen, Andrea Boccelli, Pepe Aguilar, Miguel Bose, Call 13 and Cunjunto Primavaera as well as Juan Luis Gerra. Other artists will join in on these festivities taking place at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas including Intocable, La Quinta Estacion, Orishas and Jesse & Joy among others.

Don’t risk missing out on this great event, make sure you get yourself tickets

Australian country music star Keith Urban is on the cover of the upcoming issue of People magazine. In the interview that accompanies the cover, Keith admits that he “wouldn’t be here without [wife Nicole Kidman]. He apparently credits his music and Nicole for getting him through the roughest year of his life.

Keith also just turned 40 this past Friday. Wife Nicole threw a party at their favorite Bondi restaurant, Icebergs. A guest list of 45 family and friends included the likes of Hugh Jackman and his wife and director Bas Luhrmann.

This past Sunday also saw Keith dedicate his ARIA award to Nicole during his acceptance speech.

International superstars Tokio Hotel have received another honor, while not in statue form; the band has been confirmed to perform at MTV’s Europe Music Awards – an honor in itself.

As its title suggests, this balls-to-the-wall album finds Kid Rock latching onto the verities of sex, drugs and rock & roll as a path to redemption — both his and the country’s. He’d never admit it, but hurt over losing Pamela Anderson fuels his appetite for salvation. She’s the target of the hilarious country romp “Half Your Age,” which proclaims Rock’s new girlfriend to be “half your age and twice as hot.”

Rock shows his wistful side, too. “All Summer Long” takes its inspiration from “Night Moves,” by Bob Seger (Kid’s Michigan idol), mashing up the piano lick from “Werewolves of London” with bits of “Sweet Home Alabama” for a story of sexual awakening. It’s stirring stuff. And “Amen” imports a gospel choir to denounce religious hypocrisy, racism and pointless soldiers’ deaths in Iraq. There’s straight country, hard-edged rock, big soul balladry and rhymes declaimed over metal guitar. Throughout, Kid Rock extends the Seger-Mellencamp tradition of heartland rock — its swagger as well as its vulnerability — into a new era.

Kid Rock is the first to admit that he’s “no saint” — his immortal couplet (from “So Hott”), “I don’t want to be your friend/ I want to fuck you like I’m never gonna see you again,” amply makes that point. But his good-hearted faith in rock & roll delivers a powerful kick. As he well knows — and Rock N Roll Jesus proves — roaring guitars, truckloads of attitude and an unquenchable lust for life make up for a multitude of sins.

Adema is one of those awesome bands that you just can’t get enough of, even if you’ve only heard them on the radio and are not completely sure who they are but really can’t get a particular song out of your head. That is the sign of a good song, after all, so you can rest assured that the music Adema puts together is strong and catchy, and just the kind of stuff you are going to want to hear live. Lucky for you, you can do just that now that Adema is going on tour! Just make sure you act fast to get yourself tickets because they are sure to sell out quickly and you know you won’t want to miss out!

Highlights of this bands tour include stops at such locales as Machine Shop in Flint on November 1 and Cellblock in Williamsport, Pennsylvania on November 9. The band will also play at The Chamelon in Lancaster, Pennsylvania on November 12, Revolution in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida on November 15, Bourbon Street Nightclub in New Port Richey, Florida on November 16 and Bert’s Warehouse THeater in Detroit, Michigan on December 8. Additional recently added dates include gigs at such locales as Wade Walker’s in Fayetteville, Arkansas on November 27, Remington’s Niteclub in Springfield on November 29 and PRincess Theater in Winnsboro, Los Angeles on December 14.

Australia’s version of the Grammy’s, the ARIA Awards, was held on Sunday night (their time of course). The big winner of the night was the band Silverchair. Front man Daniel Johns and company took home five trophies, including single of the year, album of the year, highest-selling single of the year, best band and best rock album.

Other winners include Operator Please, who won for breakthrough artist – single for the song ‘Just a Song About Ping Pong’, and Keith Urban who won for best country album.

Congratulations goes out to all the other winners. And let’s all give it up for Silverchair for being the big winner of the night.

When it comes to singing, Dannii Minogue and her sister Kylie sound a lot like. It’s really similar actually. But to be honest, I don’t mind. It’s not necessarily a bad thing. When you love one sister’s music, you just have to love the other.

Dannii has yet to reach a big massive commercial success like Kylie has but her music is no less fun. She recently released a video for her new single ‘Touch Me Like That’ which sample the disco classic ‘You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)’. The video is like a love child between Madonna’s ‘Hollywood’ and Tron. Add a little soft-core lesbian porn and, ladies and gents, I give you Dannii’s new video.
