I went to the usual every other tuesday night industry spot, R&B Live. It was Bad Boy night, and it was hella crowded. Here are some flicks.

Diddy introduced his MTB4 boys. He said it was their first New York performance. They need more practice.

Here’s a better shot of all of them. Please don’t test me on their names.

…I don’t know where they found Jeff Redd. He sang two classics. Do you know he is the one who gave Mary J.’s demo to Puff and that’s how she got signed. Crazy…. He still contractually signed to Uptown Records….just kidding

all types of executives was in the crowd. Someone ask this man what he did with the real Kevin Liles.

and then Naughty By Nature performed. It was a weird twist of events, but it was fun. Treach was not happy with y’all industry folks. He said play his new record. Well, not in those words.

Janelle Monae. This girl was just weird. She could sing though.

No, Aretha was not there (but Denzel came last time). I just felt like showing this picture of her and asking for captions.
