L.A. Reid To Head Epic Records

Antonio "L.A." Reid is heading to Sony Music, where the celebrated music executive will be the chairman of the restructured Epic Label Group. Reid will be taking the position after the 4th of July, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter.

Epic will be moving forward with new signees and more established artists including Pink and Usher, acts that Reid originally broke with LaFace.

There is also hope that Reid's move could reunite beloved hip hop duo OutKast. The group worked with Reid at Arista, but there has been no confirmation that a reunion will happen.

Usher/Tameka Foster Sex Tape?

Usher and Tameka Foster haven't been married for a couple of years now, but that doesn't mean that the past can't come back to haunt them. It turns out someone is shopping a reported sex tape featuring the former Mr. and Mrs. Raymond. The footage seemingly became available after Usher's laptop was stolen two years ago. It looks like someone is trying to capitalize.

According to TMZ, “The video and photos are clear – it’s Usher and Tameka,” and someone has been shopping the clip around Hollywood.

No official statement has been released from Usher nor Tameka, but some of Usher's reps have been clear in their belief that the footage and the 2009 robbery are connected. Back then, someone broke into Usher's SUV and took computer equipement, furs, a camera, and jewelry.

For her part, Tameka did post a strange tweet shortly after the story broke: “A new day. Of course there’s always new foolishness with a new day. Desperate times call for desperate measures I suppose. Never fails. Smh!”
