Dawn Richard and Que Alter Ego Photoshoot

YBF.com blogger Natasha got her hands on the exclusive photoshoot done by renowned photographer Derek Blanks. In true Derek Banks fashion, Bad Boy lovers in training, Dawn Richard and Qwanell "Que" Mosely, did the shoot with the "alter ego" theme. These pictures are great. They show the unbridled raw and intense side of the love that they share vs the reserved and secretive love that they hold within as well!

NICE!!!

Daily Drizzle~ Pleasure P- Under

Blind Item~ Pimpin Ain't Easy

This man is a singer/pimp. He performed with his group on stage (at the BET Awards) with his white hooker cheering him on from her seat in the audience, she was screaming, do it daddy! He is the less popular member (mainly background vocals) in his group but he's known. Away from the stage, his hooker walked behind him and was instructed not to make eye contact with anyone.

He's a proud offstage pimp, he was telling anyone who would listen that he's now down with the pimp game to supplement his income and he has no problem putting the smack down in private or in public when his b**ches get out of line. Who is he?

I'll reveal the answer once we get to 15 guesses in the comment section.

LeToya Luckett Album Cover

Here's the album cover for LeToya Lucketts sophomore album 'Lady Love' set to be released August 25th.

Game Pays Homage To Michael Jackson With A Tat

When Michael died, The Game hopped into the studio with a quickness to record a tribute track called "Better On The Other Side," which hit the net a day later.

Now, the Game has upped the ante. Earlier today a video edited by Game's in-house Black Wall Street director hit the net, showing some of the behind the scenes of the song, as well as footage of fans in the streets. But, it also showed a little more.

The video revealed The Game's newest tattoo -- a portrait of MJ tatted on his arm. Like he did when he tatted his idol Eazy-E on his arm long before he hit the scene, the Compton rapper paid tribute to Michael with permanent ink. I'm wondering how many more of these we'll see? Funny how no one really gave a dag on about Mike until he died. Hmmm! I'm just sayin!

Daily Eargasm~ LeToya Luckett- She Ain't Got

Here is the video from LeToya Lucketts new album "Lady Love". The video is for LeToya's second single "She Ain't Got". This single is the first time we've seen the singer take the uptempo route for a single and it works fantastically.

"Lady Love" will be released in stores August 25th.

Vibe Magazine Closing

Vibe magazine first hit the scene in 1993 and was the brain child of legendary super producer Quincy Jones. It was widely revered as one of the top urban magazines of today.

"On behalf the VIBE CONTENT staff (the best in this business), it is with great sadness, and with heads held high, that we leave the building today," said Danyel Smith, former Chief Content Officer of Vibe Media Group and Editor in Chief of Vibe.

"We were assigning and editing a Michael Jackson tribute issue when we got the news," Smith said in a statement released to AllHipHop.com. "It’s a tragic week in overall, but as the doors of VIBE Media Group close, on the eve of the magazine’s sixteenth anniversary, it’s a sad day for music, for hip hop in particular, and for the millions of readers and users who have loved and who continue to love the VIBE brand. We thank you, we have served you with joy, pride and excellence, and we will miss you."

This dag on recession ain't no joke!
