• Erykah Badu's Out of the Black Forest, But the Theater's Owners Swear a Rebirth by Summer

  When I spoke to Erykah Badu in February 2008, shortly before the release of New Amerykah Part One (4th World War), she strongly suggested all was not well with the Black Forest Theater, from which Badu had hoped to save the soul of her native South Dallas. "Financially, it's a burden," she said. "It's hard. It is. I need the community's support as much as I can, and they do, but it's a big job to take on without having the correct kind of sponsorship and backing."Certainly, she held up her end o

   Your daily dose of national music news for Tuesday, March 3, 2009... All right, all right, all right: Matthew McConaughey has gotten into the music business!  Too bad he didn't take into account the fact that record labels are losing a lot of money. I always thought the official state song of Oklahoma was..."Oklahoma." But, "Do You Realize?" by The Flaming Lips was just voted the official state song by the citizens of the great state.  Snoop Dogg is allegedly a member of

  Fresh off her amazing solo performance and crowd-thrilling guest appearance with Snoop Dogg at Bonnaroo, Erykah Badu will make a "surprise" appearance tonight on Jimmy Kimmel Live Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. She'll be playing in and with Kimmel's Fallon's house band, The Roots, according to publicist Paul Levatino. No word on which or how many songs she'll do, but some kind of tribute to Michael Jackson is certainly a possibility. Last night, Badu released a statement with

Joining the second man on the moon? Snoop Dogg, Talib Kweli and Soulja Boy.

  Tonight's a big one for Dallas' own Dorrough, as, at 7 p.m., the tape-delayed BET Hip-Hop Awards will finally be aired. And though we don't yet know if Dorrough walked away from the event with any statues, we do know this much: He'll perform "Ice Cream Paint Job" on stage and on your TV tonight with Snoop Dogg, Jim Jones, Soulja Boy and Nipsye Hustle in tow. Oh, and it appears as if Dorrough will be watching the events tonight at 8 Lounge on Greenville Avenue--and you're welcome to join him. Ye

  Dorrough.​Well, now that the tape-delayed 2009 BET Hip-Hop Awards have aired and all, we can say with all certainty that, no, Dorrough didn't walk with any hardware at the event. But he did make quite the showing, nonetheless, thanks to some assistance from the cast of one of his "Ice Cream Paint Job" remixes--Nipsey Hussle, Jim Jones, Soulja Boy and Snoop Dogg--joining the Dallas-based rapper and his DJ, K104's A Bay Bay, on stage for a live rendition of the mix, as promised.

  ​Thanks again to all who stopped by The Libertine last night for the second installment of my monthly local music sermon called The Local Hang.The plan was pretty simple: No repeats from last month. But, oh well, I screwed that up--like embarrassingly early on, too, actually, if you wanna compare last night's list (posted after the jump) to the list of songs played at the inaugural incarnation. But I think there was only the one repeat; for the most part, this was unique set when compared to l
