Such Great Hoots? Owl City Is A Rare Boy-Pop Chart-Topper
Jay Sean feat. Lil Wayne, “Down” (2009) Timberlake scored three Hot 100 chart-toppers from his second solo album, but only this one failed to get appreciable urban-radio airplay; both “SexyBack” and “My Love” were big R&B/Hip-Hop chart hits.)

T.I.'s Road To Redemption Goes Through MTV [Community Service]
I thought T.I. put out some of the better singles of last year, but turning his community service for a fairly serious crime into a reality show is unconscionable, if not unexpected. I gather from this promo that he is going to help seven at-risk youth through the kinda-discredited methods of...

MySpace Music Will Not Let You Buy Whatever Popular Single You Like
9. Estelle feat. Kanye West, "American Boy" Streamable from Estelle's MySpace page; not available for purchase via widget, despite presence on Amazon. (It would appear that the Estelle insta-tribute band the Studio All-Stars don't have a MySpace page.)

T.I. And Rihanna Do The Numa Numa Dance
ONE-LISTEN VERDICT: If making a song that forces Rihanna to sing a vocal hook based around the "may-ya-heee" melody from O-Zone's "Dragostea Din Tei" is T.I.'s revenge on the Internet for leaking tracks from Paper Trail before its release, I am now in love with him more than ever. And I can't w...

Kanye West, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, and T.I. twist ...
Kanye West, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, and T.I. twist M.I.A.'s "Paper Planes" into "Swagger Like Us," which West says exhibits "THE RAP OLYMPIC TEAM!" (caps and punctuation his, of course). I'm hoping that the video features at least one fancy model who's wearing an outfit that looks like an umpteen-la...

This nearly-eight-minute remix of Lloyd's ...
This nearly-eight-minute remix of Lloyd's "All Around The World" is pretty much an excuse for every MC on the track—The Game, T.I., Busta Rhymes, Rick Ross, Pitbull, Ace Hood, Yung Joc, Young Dro, and DJ Khaled—to rap over the "Ashley's Roachclip" beat. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the best pa...

50 Cent Has Beef With T.I. (Big Surprise) [Clara Peller Dept.]
50 Cent—who apparently still records music, despite what he might have said previously—has decided to take on T.I., because the Atlanta MC isn't going to spend as much time in prison as Curtis would like. To spare you the trouble of picking up the new G-Unit disc, the "controversial" lyrics r...

"Vibe" Gives You A Sweet, Sweet Fantasy Of Access
Otherwise, the June issue includes a list of the top "summer bangers" (and runners-ups) of the past decade, of which AP can only say that from May to September 2006 he heard Chamillionaire's "Ridin' Dirty" a helluva lot more than he heard T.I.'s "What You Know" on the radio. And "It's Murder,"...

Did T.I. Have His Rights Violated By The Federales? [Crime]
Are you a well-known rapper stuck at home on Thanksgiving while facing federal weapons charges? Well, maybe you'll be out by Christmas if your lawyers can argue the court to "suppress evidence and statements that they believe were obtained illegally."

T.I. Issues "Video Statement," Refuses To Get Dressed For Camera [Prepared Statements]
As might be expected from a guy still waiting for his day in federal court, T.I. doesn't really say much--or anything--about his case; he's smart enough to know that when you're facing a weapons charge you thank your fans a lot, talk about God, and leave the facts to the lawyers. But he certainl...
