It’s only right that I give my Urban Informer Family a sneak peek of the 3rd episode of Urban Informer TV with Diggy Simmons. This week’s webisode features the son of Hip Hop Royalty, Rev Run. Diggy was in town along with Mindless Behavior, Tyga, Lil Twist, Jawan Harris for the ‘Closer To My Dreams’ tour. After playing kickball with 92Q and the Super Kids camp, Diggy got a chance to chop it up about his debut album, how he isn’t just relying on his family name for his success, his musical influences, and being the youngest to be featured on XXL’s “Freshman Class” cover. I also asked him about what’s up with his brother JoJo. I can’t give you the entire interview now. Some things you just have to wait for the FULL episode to air next week, on Comcast TV 25.

Plus, you’ll get to check out the full interview with Mindless Behavior, as well.

Special Thanks to Diggy Simmons, Atlantic Records, Monique Cary, and my UI Production team.

My Urban Informer Family will ALWAYS get the exclusive look at the upcoming Urban Informer TV episode. This week, I went backstage at the 2011 Artscape to sit down with Miguel. It was the elephant in the room, so of course I had to ask him about the situation with Lloyd, how he feels having to defend his sexuality ALL the time, and he gives me the “scoop” on the video for his new single, Quickie. What’s next for Miguel? Who’s he’s in the studio with now on the new album? Well, you’ll have to wait to the FULL episode airs next week on TV 25! I couldn’t give it to you all right. Enjoy!

Special Thanks to Miguel, Jive Records, Drew (Mgmt), and my UI Production team.

We are just hours away from seeing Urban Informer TV kick off! You ready????

One thing about Neyo, he has no problem with stating his opinion. When Neyo rolled thru Baltimore to promote the “Champagne Life” and the release of new cd, Libra Scale, he was completely honest about everything.

Neyo and I talked about becoming a dad and how he will raise his daughter(even gave me the name of his daughter), the beef with him and Chris Brown, why he called Usher’s music sub-par, always having to defend his sexuality, and how he handles being a writer to now being in the limelight.
