	  <title><![CDATA[Rihanna love song named by Jay-Z]]></title>
	  <description><![CDATA[<p>Rihanna's ' Loveeeeeee Song' was given six extra 'e's' by mentor <a href="/pg/newsdesk/jayz" target="_self">Jay-Z.</a></p>
<p>The heartfelt track is from the international singer's seventh studio album 'Unapologetic' and is a collaboration between Rihanna and rapper Future.</p>
<p>The song was given the specific spelling by rap sensation Jay-Z as he felt he wanted to weigh in on such a great track.</p>
<p>Future told MTV News: "It was 'Love and Affection' [originally]. Jay-Z heard it and felt like he wanted to be a part of it and named it with the seven E's at the end. It was amazing."</p>
<p>Future also revealed how the track ended up on Rihanna's radar.</p>
<p>He said of the star's team: "They wanted a more uptempo record, so I sent four or five records, and I left the last record. It was more like a ballad, and I left it.</p>
<p>"It was a record that I didn't spend that much time on either. Less thought, [so] it was more natural."</p>
<p>Rihanna recently finished up her ambitious 777 tour which saw her fly on a private Boeing jet from Mexico City, to Los Angeles, Toronto, Stockholm, Paris, Berlin, London and finally, New York (November 20) in support of her forthcoming new album.</p>
<p>Over 200 journalists and fans followed the hitmaker on her travels and many have complained about the lack of access to the star.</p>
<p>Rihanna issued an apology to US Weekly: &ldquo;I know you guys got barely any dirt. But I had to be good. I still sound like s***. It's impossible to spend time with everybody, and I'm sorry I didn't."</p>

	  <description><![CDATA[<p><a href="/pg/newsdesk/chrisbrown" target="_self">Chris Brown</a> has denied claims that <a href="/pg/newsdesk/Jayz" target="_self">Jay-Z</a> threatened to end his career.</p>
<p>The R&amp;B star was reportedly warned by the Roc Nation mogul that he would never work in music if he ever hurt Rihanna again. But the 23-year-old told US radio show Power 106 that their recent conversation wasn&rsquo;t so intense:</p>
<p>"It was cordial. It was real respectful. It was nothing like that. Me and him, it was like a green room [situation] and it was cool.</p>
<p> "People like to take it and run with it because they have nothing else."</p>
<p>The &lsquo;Turn Up The Music&rsquo; chart-topper, <a href="/pg/newsdesk/chrisbrown/view/61349/" target="_self">who last week admitted that he and Rihanna are working on their friendship</a>, then added:</p>
<p>"The funny thing is that with all these rumours and stuff, is that with other artists you'll hear 30 different rumours in a week and maybe one sticks.</p>
<p> "Everything with me sticks, everyone believes everything that somebody says, so you don't know what to pick from!"</p>

	  <title><![CDATA[Jay-Z: "Emeli Sandé has the talent to be big in America"]]></title>
	  <description><![CDATA[<p>Jay-Z has heaped praise on <a href="/pg/newsdesk/EmeliSande" target="_blank">Emeli Sand&eacute;</a> and hinted towards a duet between the Scottish star and his wife <a href="/pg/newsdesk/beyonce" target="_blank">Beyonc</a>&eacute;.</p>
<p>The 'Next To Me' singer has engineered a strong reputation in the past couple of years as a talented songwriter and performer, with her debut album 'Our Version of Events' hitting No.1 in the UK charts.</p>
<p>The Daily Star quotes Roc Nation mainman Jay-Z as saying that Sand&eacute; is on course to break America, hinting that a blockbuster collaboration could be on the cards. He said:</p>
<p>"Emeli has the talent to be big in America, no doubt. She has a unique sound and she is going to be a big deal. There is a great tone to her voice. She is going to sell a lot of records. I read it's her dream to work with Bey and all I can say is you never know."</p>
<p>The rapper added: "You have to be extraordinary to break into the US. If the talent is there, it can be done. Adele is proof of that."</p>

	  <title><![CDATA[Beyoncé shares voting photos and writes open letter to President Obama]]></title>
	  <description><![CDATA[<p>Now that election day has finally arrived, vocal sensation <a href="/pg/newsdesk/beyonce/newsdesk/">Beyonc&eacute; </a>has already been to vote and shared her experience with her fans by posting photos of the occasion on her blog.</p>
<p>She uploaded a series of pictures to her official Tumblr page earlier today (November 6) that show her ticking the boxes for the democratic party and signing her name on the ballot.</p>
<p>Yesterday, the 'Halo' superstar also <a href="/pg/newsdesk/beyonce/view/51940/">wrote an open letter to President Obama </a>which thanks him for being an inspiration to America: "You are the reason my daughter and nephew will grow up knowing that they can truly be ANYTHING they want to be."</p>
<p>Meanwhile, actor Ian Somerhalder has warned fans not to post photos of their ballot because it could make their vote invalid and he wrote on Twitter: "</p>
<p>Tell followers not to post pictures of their ballot results on Ig (Instagram). It will be considered as an illegal vote. Obama dropped 3%. Do Not Post Ballot Pictures!!!! Posting ballot pictures can make (your) vote illegal! No Posting Picture!!!!"</p>

	  <title><![CDATA[Katy Perry posts Barack Obama photo as America votes on election]]></title>
	  <description><![CDATA[<p>Katy Perry has posted online what she calls the "cutest photo ever" - a picture of herself with her grandmother and US President Barack Obama.</p>
<p>The singer has been a staunch supporter of the Democrat and has performed at some of his rallies ahead of the presidential vote today (November 6).</p>
<p>Perry posted the photo on Twitter after encouraging her fans to dress up for the vote and take photos of themselves at the polling stations.</p>
<p>The 'Part of Me' star isn't Obama's only music related supporter; Bruce Springsteen and <a href="/pg/newsdesk/Jayz" target="_blank">Jay-Z</a> have also publicly backed the politician.</p>
<p>Obama is going head-to-head with Republican Mitt Romney in the political face-off, with the race almost too close to call at the moment.</p>

	  <description><![CDATA[<p>US President Barack Obama has revealed some of the music on his iPod.</p>
<p>The Democrat has often been noted as a fan of music and has <a href="/pg/newsdesk/londonnewsdesk/view/40493/" target="_blank">previously published a Spotify playlist</a>, featuring surprise choices like Wilco and <a href="/pg/newsdesk/nodoubt" target="_blank">No Doubt</a>.</p>
<p>Speaking to WIZF, Obama has revealed some of the names on his iPod, from old favourites such as Stevie Wonder to newer acts like <a href="/pg/newsdesk/eminem" target="_blank">Eminem</a>. He said:</p>
<p>"I've got old school &ndash; Stevie Wonder, James Brown. &nbsp;I've got Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan. And then I've got everything from Jay-Z, to&nbsp;Eminem, to the Fugees, to you name it. There's probably not a group that you play that I don't have on my iPod."</p>
<p>Obama continued: "I've got some jazz - John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Gil Scott-Heron. You've got to mix it up. It just depends on what mood I'm in."</p>
<p>As <a href="/pg/newsdesk/katyperry/view/60360/" target="_blank">previously reported</a>, Katy Perry recently performed at an Obama rally in Las Vegas ahead of the presidential vote on November 6, where he will go head-to-head with Republican Mitt Romney.</p>

	  <title><![CDATA[President Obama: 'I've made sure that Jay-Z helps Beyoncé with baby Blue Ivy']]></title>
	  <description><![CDATA[<p>The President of the United States of America has opened up about his relationship with global music icons <a href="/pg/newsdesk/jayz">Jay-Z</a> and <a href="/pg/newsdesk/beyonce/newsdesk/">Beyonc&eacute;</a> and even admitted to giving the rap superstar some parenting advice.</p>
<p>Barack Obama has become good friends with the famous couple and told US radio station Z107.9 that he has a great deal of respect for them and even talks with them on a personal level about ordinary things such as families:</p>
<p>"I've gotten to know these guys over the first several years. They're good people. Beyonce could not be sweeter to Michelle and the girls. So they're good friends."</p>
<p>"We talk about the same things I talk about with all my friends. I made sure that Jay-Z was helping Beyonce out [with the baby], and not leaving it all with Beyonc&eacute; and the mother-in-law."</p>
<p><a href="/pg/newsdesk/beyonce/newsdesk/">Beyonc&eacute;</a> and Jay-Z have shown public support for Obama and last month they held a fundraiser to help him get re-elected, which raised a cool $4 million for his campaign.</p>

	  <description><![CDATA[<p>Jay-Z surprised travellers in New York after taking the subway to his own gig.</p>
<p>The rap maestro was performing at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Saturday (October 6) and he decided to take public transport to the venue.</p>
<p>Surrounded by his hefty entourage, Jay-Z navigated his way through the station before sitting down next to a woman on the train.</p>
<p>He then exited the subway station and walked to the venue amid excited fans trying to take photos of the rap star.</p>
<p>The Roc Nation man isn't the first music celebrity to take the subway to their own gig, with <a href="/pg/newsdesk/rihanna" target="_blank">Rihanna </a>boarding the London tube before a gig at the city's O2 Arena in 2011.</p>

<p>The R&amp;B superstar announced &lsquo;I&rsquo;m so proud to be here&rsquo; as she launched into a solo medley of 'Diva' and 'Crazy In Love' at the new 19,000-seat arena, which is now home to basketball team Brooklyn Nets.</p>
<p>The rap veteran then reprised his guest rap role on the latter 2003 single before giving his wife a playful slap on her backside, adding:&nbsp;"Of course I had to let BK touch the stage in BK-- well BKC now."&nbsp;</p>
<p>The former Destiny&rsquo;s Child star then returned for the night&rsquo;s closing number, taking Mr. Hudson&rsquo;s place by performing the vocals on Jay-Z&rsquo;s 2010 hit, 'Young Forever,' before the pair embraced and exited the stage.&nbsp;</p>
