Super Jam without a hitch. They

deserve some high praise for an event with 14K in the house and not

an incident to speak of. But I would be lyin’ if I didn’t say I

wasn’t necessarily in the spirit of it all. Part of it could have

been that every time  I got

up to mingle, one of the ushers kept treating me like I was tryin’

to break back into my seat – even though I had a ticket. I must

give my girl Amy

Moorehouse a special shout out for tryin’ to make a sista

feel welcome, but every time she was out of sight they got to

cuttin’ up again. It was so bad that I didn’t even fraternize or

try to hang with the folks like I’ve done in Super Jams of the

past. Shall we get on with the show? I didn’t know what a

YC was prior

to Super Jam 4, but the lil girls seemed thrilled!

he was sportin’ the last time he came town and was sportin’ a fresh

P90X build. I was moved by his midsection, but his music…not so

much. He just seemed to have stumbled through until it was time to

take his shirt off (which I ain’t mad at). The folks from the Lou

love them some Yo

Gotti.

Blige “My Life” blonde quick-weave with bangs. She came

out hunchin’ for dear life like a dog in heat, but not doing much

else. Even though I must admit that her face is absolutely flawless

– which lends to my theory that a pretty face trumps talent all day

in the music game…which is unfortunate.

Anyway, she got a chance to clothes

burn with Nelly for a hot second when he returned to the stage to

rap on one of her songs. The name of their duet escapes me because

by this time I was more concerned with a stubborn stray chin hair I

found while scratching my face in confusion than anything she was

servin’ up on stage. She could have humped on off into the sunset

and I would have been none the wiser. As a matter of fact, after

inviting a few locals up to sing along to “Pretty Girl Rock” that’s

essentially how it ended.
