Make sure you check out the new Noel Gourdin track "Better Man" and let me know if you'd step to it. I saw Noel perform before his single "River" had dropped and I knew then that the cat had talent. His then publicist, Courtney Lowrey was pumping him big time and we eventually put an event together with him at a soul food spot named Tillman's in NY. Here is the a shot from the event

I met Malcolm Jamal Warner, who had just finished performing with his poetry band Miles Long. Malcolm plays the guitar and recites poetry with a rock and jazz infused sound. Some of you might have caught him on Def Poetry Jam.

Tonya is the winner of this weeks Celebrity Guess Who Contest!

Lance Gross is soft-spoken laid back dude. He was actually walking around by himself with no managers, crew members, or staff when I met him. Whatever it is that keeps this cat so mellow is working for him, as he is currently coupled with gourgeous America's Next Top Model alum, Eva Pigford. Maybe I should start talking and writing less ... hmmm!

Whoopi Goldberg & Sherri Shepherd

Tracye is the winner of the Celebrity Guess Who Contest. I had a chance to be a part of the studio audience at "The View" and I had an absolute blast. Joy Behar is great ... I never realized how funny she was. Elisabeth Hasslebeck is far more conservative than I ever imagined and Barbara Walters is a tiny lil ole lady. You check out more about the show that I attended in the January '09 issue of Sister 2 Sister magazine, on newsstands soon!

Le Le is the winner of the Celebrity Guess Who contest.

The celeb featured here is Nicole Murphy, comedian Eddie Murphy's ex-wife. While Nicole might have never heard of Steppin', she is not afraid to cut up on the dance floor. Nicole and two of her girlfriends had absolutely no problem being the only 3 women on the dance floor. That's who you could tell she's from L. A., because New Yorkers just don't dance.

Smokey and T. Pratt: Make Sure You See Him In Concert

Kissy Niecy is the winner of the Celebrity Guess Who Contest.

I had an opportunity to sit in the first row at a Smokey Robinson concert not long ago, and it was an absolute joy. I've been to a number of "old skool" concerts like the Whispers and Maze ft. Frankie Beverly, and although I enjoyed myself, I noticed that they didn't sing the songs most popular to steppers. Not Smokey! He sang "Agony and Ecstasy," "Much Better Off," "What Love Has Joined Together," and so many others that we step and walk to.

Forced To Sit Down

T. Pratt — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 09:15:24 -0600

Two days from now a year ago, I would rupture my achilles tendon and have to sit on the sidelines for close to 6 months. I remember experiencing an overwhelming feeling of depression. I don't dance nearly as much as I used to, but it's very different when you don't have the choice.

Maino, T. I., and T. Pratt: Swagga Like Us

T. Pratt — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 19:19:48 -0600

lgscott20 is the winner of the Celebrity Guess Who Contest.

After spending time with Maino, the artist who recorded "Hi Hater" and T. I., the Atlanta-bred rapper with the hottest album in the country right now, I was inspired to come back and right the piece "Haters on the Steppers Scene." These gentlemen have faced their fair share of hating, and the solution they offer is to keep going up. Success is the ultimate revenge to those who hate on you.

Faith Evans and T. Pratt

Mz. Nicole is the Winner of the Celebrity Guess Who Contest

Hanging out with Faith was absolutely crazy for me. Without makeup she looked just like my mother who passed away in 2002. I kept starring at her in amazement and the experience nearly brought tears to my eyes.
