This week I had some time to catch up with Donnie Wahlberg and Flossy in beautiful Los Angeles, CA. I knew I wanted Uncle Louie Music Group to get in on the Blockhead action but little did I know, this New Kids on The Block (NKOTB) star had undergone a transformation from teen heart throb to adult sensation! First we linked with Joey McIntyre, who can be found on twitter @JoeyMcIntyre and now Donnie Wahlberg; are the ladies getting jealous? For those of you who aren't aware, the New Kids on The Block fanbase is extensive and they have their own name; Blockheads. Last week, Kool Rock-ski, Prince Markie Dee and I had the opportuntity to meet a few hundred of them while we hosted Rock The Block in Chicago. The event, with all proceeds to charity, was hosted by Salina of Bargas Productions, who can be found on Twitter @PeroniGrlSalina and it was a great party for a great cause. We raised lots of money for charities like LetsGetThis.org and collected hundreds of books for FirstBook.org/fatbooks which we do together with Joey Mac. If you want inside info on the invite only holiday party in Chicago hosted by yours truly, reach out to Bargas Productions and ask @PeroniGrlSalina for the goods. If you need to set up Limos, our official chi-town Limo company is running a special, ask her for details on that too!
It was a pleasure getting to meet Flossy, the CEO of Streetlight Music and Donnie’s business partner, who schooled me to D Dub’s accomplishments and long term goals and wow, I got schooled! It's a small world and I didn't realize we had some mutual friends; shouts to J-Love the Silver Glove! Back to D Dub now...Unbeknownst to me, this man has a stellar resume and my dude Donnie is a monster on the mic; my man has some serious acting chops too and whether it’s the big screen or the small one, this cat has poise! So I tried to shy away from focusing on NKOTB stuff (sorry BH's) because I wanted to see what was cracking with the Dub for 2010. I got an impromptu performance of “I Got It”, Donnie’s new Single featuring Aubrey O’Day, formerly of Danity Kane. By the way, these folks are all on Twitter so you can follow them, and us, and interact live! Here is the info: @DonnieWahlberg @AubreyOday @FlossyTheBoss and @TheFatBoys
So back to LA, where was I? This single "I Got It" is hot, I am thinking D Dub may give Jamie Foxx a run for his money! So, they mention to me that D Dub’s new track is getting over 10,000 downloads a day and I was like “word!” and he proceeds to tell me about all the money they are raising for charity; what a class act he and Flossy are and Aubrey O’Day, she’s not so bad either! You guys know how much we love good music and how much we support charity, so natuarally, we were intrigued. My sponsors would be mad if I didn't interject some love for Virgin Mobile right here so let me show some love to the Rumor2 and tell you to follow them on twitter @VirginMobileUS for some exclusive tid bits on all this as it unfolds (and free stuff too!). Sorry, I can't figure an angle to discuss Dominos Pizza but I bet you wish that @Dominos would make a D Dub dessert right? Anyway...I know, I'm shameless but those are the check writers who pay the bills!!!
If you want to download D Dub’s new single, just visit store.streetlightmusic.netwhere I have posted a link! While we are readying for Fat Boys Fest www.FatBoysFest.comD Dub is readying for his Cruise where he will set sail with thousands of his fans; both events kick off May 14th in Miami; Fat Boys Fest is at The Hard Rock Casino & Hotel.
