(image copyright 2008, Andre Leroy Davis, all rights reserved) With the taping of VH1’s Hip-Hop Honors being at the Hammerstein Ballroom last Thursday (the show aired this week), New York City was overflowing with parties and events that brought back a million memories of back in the day adventures. Indeed, it seems like just yesterday that Dante Ross was playing me some of De La Soul’s debut album, I was eating Philly cheese steaks with Cypress Hill for a Source feature (shot by the talented
Online community reviews and comments are increasingly being used in (and by) traditional media. In the last 24 hours I was struck by four examples of traditional media using comments from online communities or social networks. The user-generated content from social networks was showcased in TV (Sky News), Newspaper (Financial Times) and on two adverts (one TV and one outdoor). It started yesterday at 11.30am when I was catching a train back to London from Milton Keynes. With winter approac

But bad databases -- and putting faith in them -- can spell real trouble. What's the status of those voter rol

There's nothing like a glowing profile in Billboard to make a guy look good, and the mag's "exclusive" interview with Universal Music Group Chairman/CEO Doug Morris is no exception. His office is presented in "modest statements" (if you consider a drawing by Bono "modest"), and he's too focused and centered to give himself any credit for his accomplishments. Still, despite the series of totally softball questions, Morris dropped a few gems. Or doozies. Doug was obviously one of the main forc

Today we are touring Ephesus and I am showing the tour group my favorite things in this ancient city. We filmed here for our Paul and Mary DVDs and have brought groups here on numerous occasions. One of my favorite things to show people in Ephesus is the Billboard for the Brothel that is carved into a large stone on the main road.

Well, I think that if you are brave enough to pose on the cover of a national magazine while breast feeding you should get the top spot, so here is Angelina Jolie doing just that. George Clooney. Definitely not breast feeding. Well, at least not in this photo. First time appearance for Charlie Hunnam and Ron Perlman, but definitely not so for Katey Sagal. Yeah Carmen. That’s the way we felt when we saw Disaster Movie. So, when are you going to announce your pregnancy, or did she? I can’t
