Photo courtesy of Donnell Clarke, Clarke & Associates There are innumerable ways to open this concert preview. We could do straight down the middle, noting the sheer amount of R&B power taking the stage at Temple University this weekend. Or perhaps a witty (sexual yet tasteful) reference to starting a love train? But seriously, just look at the photo. Who wouldn't want to spend a Saturday...

The single was released yesterday and he was only too eager to spill all the details, but it seems that in reality, he hasn't bothered to sign the real divorce papers, according to RadarOnline.com . The...

In the early '60s, a music executive told young Patsy Holte she was “too plain, too dark, and too unattractive” to join his label. Then she sang. He renamed her Patti LaBelle (ironically, “the beautiful” in French), and the rest is R&B/soul history... and hair. Becaus...
