It's only fitting that the BET Hip Hop Awards would hit some kind of snag to go along with the inevitable foolery. So I get a random email saying that Katt Williams had a moment of Deja Vu and was snatched up by the Feds, hence unable to host the show. That's just a rumor, but it is true that Katt Williams was replaced by T-Pain as host of the show. See what I mean, foolery!

Word on the curb is that Katt and BET had some kind of breakdown last night, but according to one of BET's blogs it all came down to a break dancing contest. More foolery!

Says Stephen Hill, “So we were all hanging out last night and Katt bets T-Pain couldn’t beat him in a break dance battle. Not knowing T-Pain was an extremely DOPE break dancer, Katt thought it was an easy win. T-Pain said if I win, I get to host the Hip Hop Awards.”

More people, BET, get more people! Either neither Katt skipped the show and is said to be at home.

Lil' Mama, Chris Brown, and T-Pain are all on one track, which actually works nicer than it sounds on paper... I like Lil' Mama and her flow. I think she's probably the best young female rapper to hit the scene in years and be a credible floacist. It may be why her project has been so hard to get going, despite a massive hit like "Poppin'." Hopefully this single will give her a boost and drive more interest in her project.

The video is pretty fly, too.

Here's the Breezy one's new video for his second single, "Kiss Kiss" featuring Teddy Penderass [aka T-Pain]. I haven't really given the song much attention, I wasn't too keen on Wall-to-Wall either but I'm not really is demographic.

T-Pain's sophomore album "Epiphany" enters on top of The Billboard 200 in a week where six of the top 10 albums are new releases. With sales fueled by the MC's high-powered single "Buy U a Drank (Shawty Snappin')," the Konvict/Nappy Boy/Jive set moved 171,000 copies in the U.S., according to Nielsen SoundScan. T-Pain's 2005 debut, "Rapper Ternt Sanga," only reached No. 40, selling 47,000 copies in its first week.

Rihanna's "Good Girl Gone Bad" bows at No. 2 with 162,000. The set's lead single, "Umbrella," currently crowns the Hot 100. This SRP/Def Jam effort is the singer's third release in two years, with each album achieving a better start than its predecessor. 2005's "Music of the Sun" began at No. 10 with 68,000, while 2006's "A Girl Like Me" started at No. 5 with 115,000.
