The Trojans Recruit Romeo
AMW !.e. Talent: Andrea M. White
April 16, 2007


Lil Romeo is Ballllin! As awkward as it is, we have gotten use to seeing basketball players trying to pursue rap careers, but in this strange twist of fate, we are glad to see young Romeo following in the footsteps of his dad and coach, Master P, to begin his NCAA career at the University of Southern California.

Lil Romeo – rapper, actor and now baller, recently committed to an offer from the University of Southern California to join the Trojan squad. At ABCD Basketball camp in New Jersey last summer, sources stated that Lil Romeo impressed coaches during the training camp; he also scored an average of 13.9 points and 5.6 assists per game at his Alma Mata, Beverly Hills High. The 6ft star will begin his freshman season alongside one of his best friends, Demar Derozan, ranked 46th on Scout.com's list of the top junior players in the country. Derozan is also predicted to go directly to the NBA after his freshman year.

Master P is proud that his son has followed closely in his footsteps, reflecting on his brief basketball career in the American Basketball Association. P was quoted as saying, "It's great for him. USC is a great school and I felt like he made a great decision." Other sources have stated that Master P has another son who is also scheduled to play for the Trojans. So is this some kind of gimmick or publicity stunt? Does the school need that much attention or has P’s fat pockets secured his son’s future? According to Derozan – it is not a game, “He's no gimmick. He can play and is going to be one of the top point guards in the 2008 class."

The young star has a pretty extensive resume including a Nickelodeon television show, five rap albums, including one double platinum and platinum album, along with P-Miller clothing line and various other projects. However, this new phase of his life as a freshman at USC is sure to be his most remarkable and most challenging experience – totally out there with the world watching and with his dad having to stand on the sidelines. We wish young Romeo luck, and it is great to see a that he made the decision to attend college.

Usher Raymond and Liz Claiborne Make Deal

Usher Raymond and Liz Claiborne Make Deal

Usher, R&B’s favorite son, has sealed a multi-million dollar deal with Liz Claiborne to introduce his new line of fragrances for men and women. The new fragrance is set for release this fall, along with an Usher clothing line that is also in the works. The Broadway star, singer, actor and now fashion icon has been working on developing the fragrance line for some time now. Usher will now compete in the ever-increasing celebrity fragrance line along with Jennifer Lopez, Derek Jeter and a wave of other celebrities who have already taken their mark in the fragrance and fashion industry.

Although the details are sketchy, including the specifics of the name of the new scent, the story was leaked in February 2007 on Women’s Wear Daily that Raymond had signed the deal shortly after finishing his impressive performance on Broadway. Right now, representatives from Ushers camp are not talking and they are not offering any specifics regarding the fragrances nor the clothing line that is also scheduled for released later on this year.

This is a major move for the star and I think it’s about time that he expands his business portfolio. As an extremely marketable superstar, hopefully we are inspired with fashions from icons such as Raymond and Madonna this year. As with most of the projects that he has taken on, his new fragrances and clothing line are sure to be classy with a little of the ATL flavor. Side note: Usher is also set to marry his current girlfriend, mother of three, and longtime hair stylist, Tameka Foster. Congrats Usher to you and all of your future endeavors.
