The 2011 Lineup for Rock The Bells was just announced and you don&#8217;t want to miss the show at all. </center><br />
<center> This year, Lauryn Hill and Nas headline the 2011 Rock The Bells Shows. Other artists set to rock the stage are: Erykah Badu, Raekwon + Ghostface, Slaughterhouse, Immortal Technique, Mac Miller, Curren$y, Big K.R.I.T. and many more. </center><br />
<center> <a href="http://str8nyc.com/2011/05/26/str8-live-rock-the-bells-2011-who-you-wanna-see/picture-14-2/" rel="attachment wp-att-43875"><img src="http://str8nyc.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Picture-141-500x231.png" alt="" title="Picture 14" width="500" height="231" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-43875" /></a></center></p>
<p>The show hits four cities, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York and Boston.<br />
For further information on tickets and show times, visit <a href="http://www.rockthebells.net/">rockthebells.net</a></p>
<p><center> So we ask who are you most excited to see live?! A while back we would&#8217;ve said Lauryn Hill but considering her weak performances and bad concert reviews&#8230;we&#8217;ll pass. I say Erykah Badu, Nas, Raekwon &#038; Ghostface have our votes! </center><br />
<center> <strong>WHAT ABOUT YOU?!</strong> </center> </p>

According to the homie <a href="http://freddyo.com/2010/06/15/maxwell-canceled-the-rest-of-his-concerts/">Freddyo</a>, </center><br />
<center><a href="http://str8nyc.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/JILLERYKAHSTR8NYC.jpg"><img src="http://str8nyc.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/JILLERYKAHSTR8NYC-500x234.jpg" alt="" title="JILLERYKAHSTR8NYC" width="500" height="234" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-40013" /></a></center><br />
<em><br />
<blockquote>Maxwell has cancelled the rest of his shows because he was not getting along with Jill Scott and Erykah Badu. He apparently was pissed because the ladies consistently go over on their time, each show, when their finish mark is actually 8:30. This limits the time Maxwell can woo the ladies and the amount of panties Maxwell can receive on stage that night.  At the last concert, Maxwell snatched a pair of thongs from the stage, and inhaled deeply. He said, “ladies I want to smell it, I want to smell it…” If he doesn’t have the time to smell his thongs, there will be beef backstage. All of Maxwell’s concerts after the NYC show on June 26th have been postponed or canceled.</p></blockquote>
<p></em><br />
<center> WHAT?! This sounds like some real diva ishh&#8230; I dunno folks but something tells me Maxwell is too just humble to wild out on petty things such as this. This doesn&#8217;t sound like a good enough reason to scrap all other tour dates. In addition to this rumored beef, <a href="http://www.singersroom.com/news/5926/Maxwell-Talks-Taking-Another-Break-Should-He-">Singersroom </a>reports Maxwell is also considering taking another break. Wait, WHAT?! WHY?! Maxwell just returned to the scene and brought real music back. Why go on another hiatus? </center><br />
<em><br />
<blockquote>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know. I like the spotlights and all that, but then I do love the corner store, getting milk, throwing out the garbage, having just a regularness around life,&#8221; Maxwell said when asked whether putting out an album or two and taking an extended break is going to become a pattern. &#8220;So we&#8217;ll see.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p></em><br />
<center> Realtalk I dunno if I could take Maxwell taking another hiatus&#8230;we&#8217;ve waited too long for his return and now he&#8217;s gonna bail on us again? C&#8217;mon Maxwell! </center> </p>

<blockquote>“I look at some other videos. I’m not naming names, because I don’t want that to be mentioned. There is the thing with sexuality. I’m naked for 13 seconds, and these people are naked the whole time and gyrating and saying come “lick on my lollipop,” and “suck on my cinnamon roll,” and, you know, suggesting sex. People are uncomfortable with sexuality that’s not for male consumption. Could be ‘cause I did it in public too. Do you think people would have been complaining if I had on high-heel shoes?”</p>
<p>“I am a big fan and a supporter of [Jay Electronica's] evolution and growth as an artist. I write all his rhymes. I’m joking. [laughs] I’m always amazed and impressed with the things he comes up with. He definitely does what a partner is supposed to do, that is, evolve you.”</p>
<p>“I was 27 when I had Seven. I was already a vegetarian. I had been for 10 years. I had started making choices that would shape me for the rest of my life. I never thought to measure by each child. My children are six years apart. It wasn’t planned, just how the relationships rolled out. I’ve had three unorthodox marriages of sorts. I’ve had the benefit of having substantial amount of time with people, mind-building time.”</p></blockquote>
