Rihanna - 2008 Essence Music Festival

“It’s such a blessing,” said Blige before beginning her performance.

Another special guest was comedian Chris Rock who retuned there for the first time in 12 years.

After Rihanna set a peaceful rhythm with ballads like “Take a Bow,” Chris Brown came with his hip hop songs, beginning his “Shawty Get Loose.” On one of Essence’s smaller stages was Grandmaster Flash demonstrating his famous turn-table technique, saying that “without DJ’s there would be no hip-hop,” reported USA Today.

Kanye West’s performance was once again impeccable and the set from the Apocalypse Now movie was very impressive. West performed songs like “Diamonds from Sierra Leone,” “Can’t Tell Me Nothin’” and “Gold Digger.

Patti Labelle proved her voice was still great while Nona Hendryx and Sarah Dash joined her when “Lady Marmalade” came up. The three singers which formed Labelle are set for a tour and their album comes in September.

The Essence Music Festival represents a celebration of black music and culture. In 2006, the festival moved to Huston because of the Katrina Hurricane but it returned to New Orleans.

Singing star Rihanna is insisting the press have got it very wrong about her romance with Chris Brown, because they are only “just good friends”. The couple has been everywhere together for months, vacationing together, being photographed smooching and even exchanging expensive jewellery and getting matching tattoos etched - seemingly confirming they are romantically involved. But the singer insists they are only friends, and are definitely not sleeping together. During an appearance on the morning television show The View today, Rihanna said, “We hang out a lot. We are very close. He’s an amazing person. But we are not dating. We are very close, very, very close.” When grilled on the difference between their friendship and ‘dating’, Rihanna replied, “There’s a big difference and I think you know what.”

Singing star Rihanna is really determined never to date another celebrity, because it would be much easier to find love with someone who isn’t famous.The beauty who has previously been linked to Hollywood star Josh Hartnett and, more recently, singer Chris Brown, is insisting it would be too hard to date someone else in the entertainment industry as their hectic schedules would keep them apart for too long. She says, “If I was dating someone who wasn’t in this industry they would be in the same place, all the time, so I could go back to that place and know where they were.”If they did what I do we’d both be travelling at the same time and we would never see each other.” And R&B star has encouraged any potential suitors to be more forward when they approach her. She adds, “I’ve met a few bold ones (men)! Then there are those who are intimidated by the whole idea of it. I’m never one to seek a guy out.”
