President Barack Obama celebrated his birthday a day early last night in front of 2,400 in his native city of Chicago. Joining him was American Idol contestant and Academy Award Nominee Jennifer Hudson.
His birthday is Today, August 4th. Actually, so is mine. Kind of cool right? No?
One of his daughters came home from summer camp just for his birthday;
"Malia is coming home from camp tomorrow just for her daddy's birthday. I'm very happy about that."
That's kind of cool. He parties with Jennifer Hudson on his Birthday while I write about his on my birthday. Hmm. Some guys have all the luck.-Dr.FB

Get Ready For A KEM-ical Reaction

If R&B soul artist Kem has not been on your radar, we really don't know what to say to you. He has been on tour with El Debarge and then Musiq Soulchild for the past few months winning over fans with his performance. It doesn't hurt that he is easy on the eyes ladies.
Although born in Nashville, TN, Kem calls Detroit, Michigan his home. A self taught musician, it seemed that Kem was on his way to a bright future, until bad choices derailed him. He has a previous history with drug abuse but is clean now and thanks his music for being there for him in the darkest of times to pull him out. Playing weddings, and wherever he could, Kem paid his dues, released a solo record on his own, and the label he grew up with, Motown signed him. He is going on almost a decade of being clean and living the good life.
Kem has performed for President Barack Obama and his musical influences are Stevie Wonder, Prince, Parliment Funkadelic, and Steely Dan. He has been nominated for 2 Grammys this year, countless Soul Train Awards and NAACP image Awards.
His 3rd album, Intimacy is out now and is about to funk up Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego before the weekend.
Make sure to keep your eye on Kem as he is one to watch. We will do our best by covering him and letting you know what this Funkenberry artist is up to.-Dr.FB

Man, it must be a slow news day. Either that, or people did not want to talk about Lindsay Slowhands Lohan today. So, the New York Post goes after the celebrity President Barack Obama for wearing flip-flops.
While vacationing in Hawaii, President Obama was spotted wearing shorts and flip flops and it seems it's a big deal. I really don't think Americans care. Just fix the damn economy and he can wear a tutu for all I care.
So we ask you; is it really a problem that Barack Obama, The President of the United States, the leader of the Free World wear an outfit like this while on vacation?-Dr.FB

Lady Gaga Marches For Gay Rights

Talking the talk and walking the walk. That is what Lady Gaga did this weekend. She said she would march in Washington D.C. for gay rights and she did.
She yelled. She waved the flag. For 2 and a half miles, she let her voice and opinion be heard. I could have done without here wearing a pin that said Gaga for Equality though. This movement is bigger than one person is all.
She also performed at the Human Rights Campaign’s 13th Annual National Dinner, which was lead off with recent Nobel Peace Prize winner, President Barack Obama.
One has to wonder when there will be equality for everyone?-Dr.FB

Does Kanye West Just Want Attention?

With what happened on Sunday, it brings a question to mind; Does Kayne West know the difference between good attention and bad attention or does he just know attention and is an attention whore?
No one in their right mind would want the attention Kanye is getting, except for someone who wants attention, no matter if it is good or bad. I mean the President of the United States of America called him a jack ass. Jay Leno cracked that George W. Bush said that "Kanye doesn't care about white people" and the audience laughed.
3 days later, the incident is still being talked about by me and others. Patrick Swayze passed away but all everyone seems focused on is Kanye. For everyone, they would hate attention like this, but does Kanye. He has NEVER been talked about this much. Kanye has done this crap before, but for himself. Whining when he does not win something. Boasting we don't know just how brilliant he is.
His desire for attention is almost as big as ego to let everyone know he is the greatest of all time no matter what he does. So if he did this all for attention, even if he is sincere for hurting Taylor Swift in the process, maybe Kanye is brilliant. People who think this is going to kill Kanye's career, it's not going to happen. Kanye has talent, but his ego needs to land back on earth.
I put the question to you now.
Did he do it all for attention? Does Kanye know the difference between good attention and bad attention? Is this really going to stop you from listening to his music? Let me know.-Dr.FB
