The Atlanta singer has been charged with possession of the drug ecstasy after she and her husband were arrested on L.A.’s Sunset Strip in September, reports sources. If convicted, she could face up to a year behind bars for the violation.

T.I. wasn’t charged with possession of a controlled substance when he went before a judge earlier this month, which would have significantly increased his sentence. The District Attorney chose not to prosecute him because he was already set to serve time for a probation violation resulting from the L.A. arrest.

Tiny’s close friend and fellow Xscape member Kandi Burruss said that Tiny remains strong despite her husband’s prison sentence, expected to begin next week. “She’s doing fine,” he told TheMoMoShow.com “She’s just strong. She doesn’t really let a lot of things get her down, and if she did, she’s not gonna let you know.” – Well I think it’s time for T.I.and Tiny to kiss goodbye any endorsement deals they had or ever will get.

Remember: Mariah told us through her rep a few weeks ago that she was very “superstitious” about discussing such matters. Meantime, Mariah’s first single from the new album, “Oh Santa,” is pretty catchy. Expect to hear it four times a day between Thanksgiving and Christmas!

The Atlanta rapper pleaded to a federal judge not to send him back to prison for violating his probation with a drug arrest, but to allow him to get help for his drug addiction.

“I screwed up big time and I am sorry,” T.I. said during his probation revocation hearing Friday afternoon. “I am sincerely sorry. I am scared that you will send me to prison.”

Tip, born Clifford Harris Jr., was in federal court Friday in Atlanta following his arrest last month in Los Angeles on suspicion of drug possession. He was on probation after serving 10 months behind bars on federal weapons charges.

So now, I’m pretty much guessing the album is going to be pushed back…great! He just doesn’t help himself! However his label announced only days ago a the track, entitled “Get Back Up“, features Chris Brown and will be included on the rapper’s new album, “King Uncaged“. This is a solid record. The song carries an inspiring message and it is well-framed by radio friendly beat. Brown was a fitting addition to the track despite the unnecessary studio tricks added to his voice. This should have been the 1st single released by T.I from his ‘King Uncaged’ album.

It looks like Christmas is going to arrive early again this year for Rihanna’s hearing-impaired fans. The model with a voice as pleasant as a car alarm will be releasing her new album, ”Loud“, on November 16th; 2 weeks later than the tentative November 2nd date that was originally projected. This marks the 2nd album that Rihanna will be releasing in less than 12 months as it arrives just 1 week short of a year since the release of her last record, ”Rated R“, which hit stores on November 23rd.

She seems so excited to share that voice with the world. O how I wish she was a more selfish person. Rihanna disrobes on the red-hot cover of her brand new single “Only Girl (In the World).” TheMoMoShow.com has your first look at the revealing artwork, which portrays a long-haired RiRi naked in a field clutching her red rose dress. The Stargate-produced dance record goes to iTunes on September 21st, while her fifth studio album “Loud“ is due in November. There is no doubt (even though I’m sick of the record already) Rihanna is looking at her 8th #1! Scroll over to see the art work of “Only Girl (In the World).”.

Yes that’s right, Drake finally dropped another video from his amazing album “Thank Me Later“, although not one that we would of all exptected, “Miss Me” featuring Lil Wayne which debuted at #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 was directed by Anthony Mandler. – But hey we are not complaining! The video is pretty following the story of a dark even with Drake and Lil Wayne rapping in some field in the middle of some hill-billy state – yes, another low budget video (sigh). Maybe this has got to do with this whole “welcome back” concert for Lil Wayne? most likely I cannot find any other reason why Motown would decide to put this okay-ish track out after a great lead of singles!

This was a good video. However, I wonder why this track was chosen as the new single instead of ”Up All Night“, “Shut It Down” or the much awaited “Fancy“. Certainly Drake wanted to release a single featuring his mentor but the Minaj collaboration is a much stronger song never the less with growing hype for T.I that would of mixed well too – and the The-Dream track is a genuine great record!. Besides, with the hype surrounding Drake, Minaj and T.I. (not so for The-Dream) at the moment, it would have proven to be a guaranteed smash. O well. Life goes on.

Eminem has a lot to be thankful for this summer. The Detroit rapper reclaimed his spot atop the Billboard 200 albums chart this week with his seventh studio effort “Recovery“. The disc, initially released in June, also achieves its eighth consecutive week of selling at least 100,000 units, bringing its grand total to a whopping 2.1 million copies. As a result of the surge in sales, Slim Shady’s latest albumearns double platinum status. – Odd seeing as before the release of the LP people where doubtful of the LP and many critics had dismissed the project all together!

To date, “Recovery” is the second best-selling album of 2010 behind Lady Antebellum’s Need You Now (2.5 million). Besides his album accolades, Em’s Rihanna-assisted single “Love the Way You Lie” also moves into the No. 1 position on the Digital Songs chart. At this point last year, no albums had sold more than two million units, according to Billboard. Six have reached the million mark this year, including Usher‘s “Raymond v. Raymond“, which went platinum this week after selling an additional 15,000 copies. – In other news Eminem is currently planning a world tour and yes! another album is currently in development!

The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter’s fourth studio effort will now arrive at retailers on October 19, a day after his 31st birthday, The MoMo Show has learned. It was previously scheduled to drop two weeks earlier on October 5th 2010.

The sci-fi-influenced album was inspired by Ne-Yo’s passion for acting. “The songs on the album are all songs inspired by this story I wrote,” he told us, “Libra Scale is a question of morality. Weighed out on a libra scale, if you had to choose between money, power, fame, or love, which one would you put the most value on? Which one would prevail in your life?”

The father-to-be is riding on the current success of his dance single “Beautiful Monster,” which hit No. 1 in the U.K. His follow-up single, the inspirational “One Life,” surfaced last week. Ne-Yo is set to follow-up the chart-topping success of “Beautiful Monster“, with “One Life” later on next month

Though a competent enough effort, the song sounds like it’d be at home on Ne-Yo’s earlier albums. At this point, releasing a single with a little more ‘kick’ wouldn’t go amiss. Still, the Stargate produced cut is radio friendly enough (which seems to be the aim of the game with most of Shaffer’s releases), hence should be a hit. – Well…it better be!

“I don’t need Sasha so much any more because these days I know who I am. It takes time to figure out who you are and I am still discovering different things about myself – as I am exposed to different experiences I think, “Oh, I like this, I didn’t know I liked this.” That’s the journey of life that is so exciting. More and more I know who I am, I know what I like, I know what I want and that makes me feel so free. I don’t need to hide any more.”

The real question is whether Beyonce will be retiring the musical persona of Sasha Fierce as well. There have been several indications that she will be taking a fresh approach with her upcoming album and if that is truly the case then it may be time to put her usual beat-driven and lyrically shallow style to rest in favour of more personal expression.”

Although she may have won several awards on the basis of popularity for ”Single Ladies“, I sense that Beyonce has been churning out such tunes as a way for her to compensate for her lack of artistic depth. Beyonce definitely has the talent to create iconic material. All she has to do is stop shaking her backside for a minute and try to find meaning in her music instead of paying people to do it for her.

Trey Songz has said he is putting pressure on himself to make sure his new album is even better than his previous three.

The “I Invented Sex” singer said he wanted to continue building on his momentum with new album “Passion, Pain and Pleasure“, which is released next month,

“No matter how much you love the songs, I need something new,” he said, adding that R Kelly and Usher were his idols. ”This is a competition,” he said. “No matter how much I look up to Usher and R Kelly, it’s something we all want to be the best at. But I can’t control what they do. I have to outdo me.” And Trey seems to have a fan in fellow R&B musician Keri Hilson. The star said she wasn’t worried about Trey being a “one-CD hit wonder” because of his strong vocal ability paired with his physical appeal to his increasing female fan base.

“He won women’s hearts,” Keri said. “His music has always been great. But people are more aware of him now because of his sex appeal. That will help him move forward.”

Either way in addition to this pressure, Trey Songz‘ reality TV show may also be axed from air, After a somewhat promising start back in June, the show’s ratings have dropped to dismal depths – with this week’s episode bringing in an embarrassing 0.461 million viewers (this despite it being aired nationally – US).

You know, I’m not usually a huge fan of Eminem (for personal reasons) nor am I a fan of Rihanna (for obvious reasons) – but without a bout this track really showcased the substance of both of these artists. Although an unsafe partnering of these two, I must of been hard to imagine how people where going to react to “Love The Way You Lie“. Never the less the track is now working it’s way onto every chart across the globe and stacking up the youtube visits. “Love The Way You Lie” is a rap ballad, written originally for Ashanti to take the lead female vocals.

Rihanna was approached because Eminem convinced the producer of the track that (for some odd reason) that RiRi’s voice would fit. An insider close to the UK producer “Alex da Kid” told us he said “They reached out to us directly and they just said, ‘We have this song and we just think Rihanna would be perfect to sing it.’ And, of course, I was like, ‘OK, if I love it, I’ll definitely do it, because I love Eminem.’ And I love the song. It’s really beautiful, and it really stands out. It’s a really unique record. I’m really excited about it.” . I have to admit that “Love The Way You Lie” must of been hard on Rihanna, when you listen to those lyrics it in a way reflects her past year…maybe something to think about? The track does warn many people of the cycle of abuse, is that why Eminem invited Rihanna on the track?
