Role Model: Beyonce Says “Being A Role Model Is Something That I’ve Always Been.”

R&B/Pop sensation Beyoncé stopped by Entertainment Television to promote her new album 4. During her segment, Beyoncé spoke about being a role model and the story behind the title of her new album 4.

On being a role model

Being a role model is something that I’ve always been. It’s not something I became, it’s something I was already because I had a younger sister and I believe that being a role model is something every woman is even if you don’t realize it. There’s always someone watching you, someone that admires you and I believe we help each other so much and I don’t take being a role model lightly.

On how she named her new album 4

I’m so excited about my new album, it’s called 4 and it’s my fourth album. To be honest with you, my fans actually suggested the number four as the title. I saw for the past year that they kind of claimed it. They just said “were waiting for 4, we’re waiting for 4 and I said “Alright fans, I think you’re right.”

Is DMX Signing To Maybach Music? X Says Rick Ross Extended His Hand To Join Maybach Music Group

New York’s rapper DMX is expected to be released from prison early next month. In an exclusive interview with Vibe magazine, X said that Rick Ross extended  his hands to join his Maybach Music Group. This will be a great look for X. Below are some excerpts from X interview with Vibe:

VIBE: You got major labels interested?

DMX: Yeah. Actually, Rick Ross’ peoples wrote me a letter while I was in here.

What!

Yeah like ‘Yo we got a home for you. We’ll pick you up in a limo. Just come to Miami. Just come, we got you.’

Oh wow, have you thought about that?

I’m thinking about it. It was a good feeling. I respect him as an artist, and I would like to work with him. But he got the whole Illuminati thing going on.  I got fans who write me like ‘I’m glad you’re not a part of that.’ And I don’t know what it’s really about entirely. So it might be like a good thing.

That’s crazy man. Because I don’t know if you heard but right now Rick Ross is on fire. Maybach Music Group signed up a whole bunch of people. Wale, Pill–and they’re really doing it man. That would be a crazy power move if you guys joined up.

Yeah. I have respect for him and he expressed interest that he wanted to work with me while I was out. So I definitely want do a song with him, but I don’t know about the record label thing. I would have to see what his camp is like and feel people out.  I’m not the average artist.

The talented Teyana Taylor just released her version to Drake’s “Marvin’s Room.” Taylor titled the track “Her Room (Marvin’s Room) and response to Drake’s song; in an emotional way. On the track, Taylor finds the strength to move on from an ex-boyfriend who left her for another girl. I love everything that Taylor does. She has a lot of talents. Listen to the track below:

“Fuck that new girl that you love so bad/ I know you still think about the times we had/ I said fuck that new girl that you think you found/ But you’re calling me even when she’s around,” she sings, borrowing harmonies from Lauryn Hill’s “Ex-Factor.”

“I Made ‘Her Room’ for the ladies to relate to!” explained Teyana. “Feel it, it’s ok to cry!”

Listen Now: “Her Room (Marvin’s Room)”

Teyana is rumored to be signing to or already signed to Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music.
