J. Cole, the up-and-coming hip-hop star from Fayetteville, North Carolina, sees his career advance when he becomes the first artist signed to Jay-Z’s record label, Roc Nation, and prepares for the release of his first studio album in October 2010.
The end of Lauryn Hill’s Rock The Bells set at NY’s Governors Island turned into a love fest as backstage guests Mary J Blige, Beyoncé, Alicia Keys, Swizz Beatz, Chris Rock, Jay-Z and John Legend all came out to hug it out with the enigma. Black star power. Too bad the performance was mostly panned by observers like Touré and Amanda Diva. Flicks below.

Amei-te tanto, mas tanto que depois de ti a minha alma fendeu-se e incrustou-se ao meu coração como as marcas das margens do ribeiro violento que corre para alimentar a mãe.
Fiquei estragado para o amor, fétido como uma couve podre à quinta-essência. Desenraizado como pinheiro no deserto, poupei toda a água do mundo e todas as horas das madrugadas sem ti até chegar onde não sei enterrar o teu nome, o meu amor… essa coisa funda, abissal como a raia dos nove círculos de Dante que enche cada recanto de mim...» — dizia o bardo cego, sem olhos arrancados à raiz de raivoso desejo de não ver ninguém mais do que Ela...
Coxeia pelas bermas da vida arrastando um caixão de rosas de inverno com o nome dEla encriptado pelas lágrimas inominadas que chorastes nos meus olhos.
E tu? Nunca foste escandalizado pelo amor que crucifica? --- Lisboa, 26-08-2010 Virgílio Brandão

Affluence separates people. Poverty knits 'em together. You got some sugar and I don't; I borrow some of yours. Next month you might not have any flour; well, I'll give you some of mine. Ray Charles
