Walker/Getty Images) Mariah Carey silences hub? Mariah Carey has gagged Nick Cannon -- but not in a good way. He's not allowed to say boo about their divorce ... or else. Sources close to the couple tell TMZ ... Nick and Mariah's lawyers hashed out a confidentiality agreement as part of their divorce ... and it's completely one-sided. Nick is barred from saying anything about the split.  If he does, there are severe financial penalties. But Mariah has the right under the agreement to announce the split on her terms. Nick is clearly following orders ... check out the video from NYC Thursday -- he zipped it. Nick is allowed to say they're now living separately ... which he's already done.

Image
The Notorious B.I.G.’s son CJ Wallace has been accused of being gay since photos of his graduation were released showing him hugging a male friend from behind. Mom and R&B Diva Faith Evans proceeded to curse out the masses in defense of her son, but CJ himself has yet to speak on the rumor. Satirical website The Nerd News wrote a piece about the rumor, claiming Wallace proposed to his “longtime boyfriend” accompanied by the photo in question.   CJ took to Twitter to deny the rumor, mostly by laughing it off as nonsense, and even re-posting a pic of Lil Wayne & Baby kissing saying “So that’s worse than this?” And now… This is EbenGregory.com…telling you people enjoy convincing others, if others are wrong they convince them towards right, if others are already right they still want to convince them towards wrong. Free jewelry. Hit the pages for CJ’s responses.

Murders Among Black Youths Have Risen Sharply Since 2000: A People In Crisis!!!!

Image
WASHINGTON — The number of young black men and teenagers who either killed or were killed in shootings has risen at an alarming rate since 2000, a new study shows. The study, to be released Monday by criminologists at Northeastern University in Boston, comes as FBI data is showing that murders have leveled off nationwide. Not so for black teens, the youngest of whom saw dramatic increases in shooting deaths, the Northeastern report concluded.   Last year, for example, 426 black males between the ages of 14 and 17 were killed in gun crimes, the study shows. That marked a 40 percent increase from 2000. Eyes filled with fear, pain and trauma from the hands of  a cold and exploitative culture. Similarly, an estimated 964 in the same age group committed fatal shootings in 2007 _ a 38 percent increase from seven years earlier. The number of offenders is estimated because not all crimes are reported, said Northeastern criminologist James Alan Fox, w...

In another, he tells the NYPD 's account to alert the "Man hunt" that he'll be at an Astoria strip club Saturday night. Police say the "Love & Hip Hop" star snatched the phone and twisted his ex-girlfriend's arm during a dispute in his car early Monday in Manhattan . Budden didn't immediately return an email.

Introducing: Houston Texas's own Dominique

Image
  Love Dominique is an emerging R&B singer from Houston, Texas ready to take over the industry. With a voice that sounds like Tina Turner, T-Boz & Brandy got together to create a child, her music intrigues you. Her voice draws you in and I've coined it as simply "sex." Her music although reminiscent of the 90's when R&B was at the top of it's game is very bold and edgy unlike anything we've heard in recent years. Her three song EP Wicked Heart is getting quite the buzz as it has been featured on online publications from Yahoo! Music to Vibe Vixen. I had the pleasure of catching up with Love Dominique and asking her a few questions. Check out the interview as well as the video for the single 'Down' below When did you start singing?  I have been singing my whole life but professionally since 2009. Who are your musical influences?  I love Tina Turner. Her voice and stage presence is everything. I am also influenced ...
