Yes, in a move that will sure to be as “alarming” as when Jenny McCarthy posed for Candies shoes on the toilet, rap artist Nas’ new album is going to be called Nigga. Nas says people “shouldn’t trip on the album’s title; the songs are crazier than the title.” Still, it’s still caused an uproar with the likes of Jesse Jackson who said he wished Nas would use his talents to uplift and not to degrade.

DMed’s Video of the Week: The Pipettes, “Pull Shapes”

It only took a year and change, but We Are the Pipettes, the debut from the sassy UK girl group trio, has finally arrived on these here shores.

Gwenno (the tall blonde) is a Posh Spice in the making, let me tell you.

The girls have a ton of videos on YouTube – the animated “ABC” is tons of fun – but I chose “Pull Shapes” so you can see for yourself just how hot the non-animated Pipettes are. Wear a bib, and dance your ass off.
