Earlier this week, I sat down with Ashanti for the latest interview for Urban Informer Tv! Ashanti was very careful not to give too much details about her upcoming album, BraveHeart! (She even gave me a homework assignment so that I could understand the title). I was determined not to leave anything un-answered so yes, I asked her about her relationship with Nelly, rumors of her signing to YMCMB, her duet with Keyshia Cole, her tribute to Whitney Houston on GMA, launching her own label, and more.

Check out the trailer, after the jump!

Estelle’s latest CD, All Of Me, is in stores now. Just hours before she performed for a sold-out crowd at Soundstage, I had a chance to sit down with the Grammy award winning artist about the new album ‘All Of Me, MTV’s ‘Hottest MC’s list, the crazy response that her latest single ‘Thank You’ has gotten, being compared to Mary J Blige, and how the death of Whitney Houston affected her as a singer.

Peep the trailer for the upcoming episode of Urban Informer Tv, after the jump!

This Friday, I will dedicate Urban Informer TV to Whitney Houston. We will take a look at her life, her legacy, and how she changed the world through her music. Check out a trailer of the show.

Urban Informer TV episode of ‘Remembering Whitney Houston’ will air Friday at 8pm on Comcast Ch. 25 (Baltimore City). Tune In!

Speaking with Wale on his tour bus, after he just had the crowd rocking for Morgan State University’s Homecoming concert, he knows a thing or two about grind. From his first album, Attention Defecit, only selling 10,000 copies in its first week (went to sell 28,000), to preparing to release ‘Ambition’ with his Maybach Music backing, Wale is definitely in a new space. If he could, Wale would love to just record and perform his music because the interview part of his job is what he dislikes most. Fortunately, he was willing to sit with Urban Informer TV to discuss his upcoming album, his passion, him being labeled the “angry rapper”, and what it was about MMG that he was down to signing with Ross.

The FULL interview with Wale, Meek Mill, and Young Chris airs Friday, October 14th at 8pm on Comcast Ch. 25 (Baltimore City).

Special Thanks to Wale, MMG, Wes, June Cober, Meek Mill, Young Chris, and my U.I. Production team.

For the next episode of Urban Informer TV, Jive/Digiwaxx recording artist, Wish, rolls through. Plus, Baltimore’s ONLY Power Soul Band, Graddai rocks out on the set! Wish lets allllll the glitter flow as she talks about her trip to LA for the VMA’s weekend, her “A-Haa” moments, and she premieres her brand new video ‘Warrior’ for the first time on Television on Urban Informer TV. The full episode airs tonight at 8pm on Comcast TV 25 (Baltimore City).

Special Thanks to Wish, Jive/Digiwaxx, Graddai, Ty Ferbee, Jack, and my Urban Informer Production Team. Also, special thanks to ‘The Help’.

Baltimore’s newest singing sensation, CJ Hilton is signed to RCA Records. That wasn’t his first label deal though. He was originally signed to Captiol Records, but when labels aren’t sure how to promote an artist, things happen. Through the transition, CJ Hilton has had the time to shine on BET’s ‘Music Matters’ tour, recording to Stevie Wonder, Raphael Saadiq, and more. For the Grammy nominated singer, it all started with him singing in church. Check out the trailer for my sit-down with CJ as we talk everything from his debut album dropping later this year, his little fling with a R&B singer, how he would describe his sound, and the advice fellow Baltimorian, Mario gave him..

Be sure to watch the FULL Interview TONIGHT at 8pm on Comcast TV 25. Special Thanks to CJ Hilton, RCA Records, Damon Lott, Akil Taffe, and my UI Production team.

Hustle….Hustle….Hustle…..Hard..closed mouths don’t get fed on the boulevard. That’s how I felt trying to get Ace Hood in the studio. Ace was busy running up and down the Eastcoast days prior to his ‘Blood, Sweat and Tears album dropping, so around 10pm we finally got a chance to chop it up. From his life-altering financial problems after his second album dropping, giving me details on his two newborn babies, to even having Ace Hood walk out the studio (which was a first for me), the U.I. cameras caught it all. Get a Sneak Peek of my interview with Ace Hood, but the full episode doesn’t air til August 19th at 8pm on Comcast TV 25 (which happens to be the same day as the Urban Informer TV Launch Party at Eden’s Lounge). So, basically after you watch the show, I’ll see you at the party!

Special Thanks to Ace Hood, Def Jam Records (EP, Nadia), Kristen M, my Urban Informer production team, and YOU!

The FULL episode with Mindless Behavior and Diggy Simmons airs this week on Comcast TV 25 (Baltimore City).
