Looks like BET took note from MTV’s successful “Hope For Haiti Now” telethon which helped raise over $58 million– sparking the network to create its own telethon titled “SOS Saving Ourselves—Help for Haiti” to be hosted by Queen Latifah, Diddy and Pharrell Williams. The two hour event will take place at the AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami and will air on BET,  Centric, MTV and VH1 on Friday, February 5th at 8 pm ET.

“Words cannot express how I felt watching the catastrophic events unfold in Haiti. I believe it is our duty to come together and help our brothers and sisters in Haiti, especially now, in their greatest hour of need. I have joined forces with Queen Latifah, Pharrell, BET and several of the biggest names in music today to raise funds for the Haiti Relief efforts. Together we can make a difference,” says Diddy.

A string of artists including Ne-Yo, Keri Hilson, Chris Brown, Jazmine Sullivan, Akon, Ludacris, Mary J. Blige, Robin Thicke, Monica, Busta Rhymes, India Arie, Kirk Franklin, Nas and Damian Marley are set to hit the stage for this special event. In addition to musical performances, Mr. “Panty Dropper”  aka Trey Songz, Common, David Banner, Missy Elliott, Chrisette Michelle, Jeremih, The Dream, Jason Derulo, T-Pain, Sean Kingston and more will also make appearances.

“The devastation that has occurred in Haiti has broken my heart. My hope is that we can raise enough money to sustain a few of the relief organizations for quite some time as there is a lot of work to be done over there,” said Pharrell Williams. “The goal is not only to bring immediate relief to Haiti but to also rebuild the country and help the country move forward.”

Proceeds from the event will go to Wyclef Jean’s Yele Haiti, CARE, Project MediShare and Children’s Safe Drinking Water.

Last night Twitter was buzzing with great reviews from Ryan Leslie’s show at SOB’s in NYC. During his set, a special guest hit the stage and got the crowd xtra amped with his classic tunes. Outasight also perfomed his joints…too bad for me I missed the show. Other musical guests in attendance included Jazmine Sullivan, Raheem DeVaughn, Jimmy Cozier, Nina Sky and many others. Shouts to the TapeMaster’s Inc & theLIFEfiles for video footage.


Check out our EXCLUSIVE footage of one our favorite new R&B acts Ryan Leslie performing a couple of his hit singles and some songs off the album at New York’s S.O.B’s for a crowd that included Usher. Hot 97′s own Angie Martinez provides the introduction and check out Ryan’s “Usher tribute” at the end of the footage.
