The Tanning of America
Sounds like an interesting and new concept "Tanning" in Marketing. Tanning as Steve mentions in this video, refers to how hip hop culture targets all cultures, nationalities unlike the targeted segmented traditional approach (to a specific race, gender , age group etc) of marketing.

Drake's Take Care Gets pushed back a few weeks
Courtesy of Drake's facebook page
TAKE CARE NOVEMBER 15
The new date for Take Care is November 15th, 2011. I managed to create this album in my hometown of Toronto and the thoughts and stories I wanted to get across just became so clear. It truly felt like when I was here 3 years ago making So Far Gone. So I have completed 19 songs (17 on physical and 2 on bonus), and have run into a roadblock of clearing 3 samples in time to make... the October 24th date. My options were to take the songs off and make the birthday release happen, or to take an extra couple weeks to get the paper work right and give you the album they way I NEED you to hear it. The choice was clear as day for me. November 15th you will get Take Care the exact way I created it with no trimmings. This music means too much to me to get attached to dates and I do apologize for the delay but I promise that it is only for the benefit of our experience together. Club Paradise Tour will also be moved to when students are back from the Christmas/New Year break so that I can get to more schools. New dates will be released in the next week...see you all soon.

Rihanna is Getting Her Barkley On: "I Am Not A Role Model!?!?
Rihanna Says White People Want Her To Be A Role Model But That's Not Who She Is
Rihanna wants it known once and for all she isn't trying to be anyone's role model.
The singer tells Vogue UK she sometimes feels pressured to be someone she's not.
"People – especially white people – they want me to be a role model just because of the life I lead," she said. "The things I say in my songs, they expect it of me and it became more of my job than I wanted it to be. But no, I just want to make music. That’s it. That’s not me. That’s a part I play. You know, like it’s a piece of art, with all these toys and textures to play with."
The singer also defended her frequent use of the word c*nt. Compararing it to African American's use of the word "n*gga."
"That word is so offensive to everyone in the world except for Bajans." she revealed. "You know African-Americans use the n-word to their brothers? Well, that’s the way we use the c-word. When I first came here, I was saying it like it was nothing, like, “Hey, cunt”, until my make-up artist finally had to tell me to stop. I just never knew."
Are entertainers held up to too many standards!?!?
The Numbers Are In!!!
J. Cole-Cole World:Sideline Story Debuts at #1 with 217,324 copies sold first week!!!

Apple iPhone 5!?!? Nope it's The 4S!
Apple has announced its next iPhone and it won't be called the iPhone 5, but rather the iPhone 4S.
From the outside, the iPhone 4S looks just like the iPhone 4 -- which may disappoint some hoping for a new form factor.
On the inside however, the iPhone 4S is a new device, said Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing.
Most notably, perhaps, is the addition of Apple's dual-core A5 chip, which is built by Samsung.
The A5 in the iPhone 4S will offer seven-times faster graphics for better mobile gameplay and is "up to" twice as fast overall as the A4 chip in the iPhone 4, Schiller said.
The iPhone 4S battery life will also be the best of any iPhone thus far, with eight hours of talk time and 40 hours of music listening capability.
The iPhone 4S has a new wireless system that can "intelligently switch" between its two antennas to "make even better call quality," Schiller said.
So what does that mean exactly? Apple is promising that users will be able to download data much faster than before using HSDPA cellular technology. The iPhone 4S won't be a 4G phone, but it will have 4G-like download speeds and send and receive data a lot faster.
As expected, the iPhone 4S will also have an upgraded camera -- 8-megapixels -- capable of shooting images at a resolution of 3,264x2,448 pixels. That's 60% more pixels than the iPhone 4's 5-megapixel camera.
Apple said the 4S' sensor is much better too with a "five element lens." Schiller said: "Here we've really gone overboard," with an f/2.4 aperture which will improve photo quality in low light situations.
Schiller even said the iPhone 4S takes photos a lot faster than its rivals too. The Droid Bionic takes 3.7 seconds to take a pic, Schiller said, while the iPhone 4S takes just 1.1 seconds.
The camera will shoot better video too -- at a high-definition resolution of 1080p.
Apple has yet to say just how much the iPhone 4S will cost, on what carriers it will be available or when it will be released.
So, what do you think so far? Are you excited for the iPhone 4S? Bummed it's not a proper iPhone 5 with a new look and a bigger screen? Sticking with Android or Windows Phone?

Leaders Of The New School
We was having a argument about this and had to bring it to The Dubb Spot...
What are your top 5 artist with less than 2 official albums. We all know if that Jay-Z, Nas, Biggie, Tupac, Eminem... Etc. Are in mostly everybody's list. But what about some of the newer artist. So who do you have in that list!?!?
Oh P.S. Technically Biggie had 4 albums, if you count those albums Puff Daddy put out after he died.
