Well I made the move! It’s been one huge whirlwind. On Thursday January 12th I gave birth to my daughter Kendall. Four weeks after my c-section I was packing my house to prepare for my new chapter in Atlanta. I learned a serious lesson in this experience…..NEVER EVER EVER EVER try to move cross country right after having a baby. I must have thought I was superwoman or something. A sister is worn OUT!!! loll

Nevertheless, I’m excited about this new phase in my career. Atlanta is a beauuuuutiful city with charming people. V103 is a Monster station so this is a big moment. I gotta thank everyone who came out to welcome me to ATL….

Brandy, Monica, Marsha Ambrosius, Musiq Soulchild, Rozanda “Chilli” Thomas, Keith Sweat, Nelly, Toya Wright, Trina Braxton, Waka Flaka Flame, Dr. Steven Perry, Nicole Paultre-Bell, Mona Scott Young and More lent their support for my midday radio show, “On Air With Egypt,”from 10 am- 2 pm.

Marsha Ambrosius called in to not only welcome but me, but revealed that she is hard at work on her new album, the follow up to the Grammy Nominated, “Late Nights Early Mornings.”

Reality TV Star/Author, Toya Wright, “called out” Grammy Award nominated Atlantic Records recording artist, Musiq Soulchild, for standing her up at her wedding to Memphitz Wright. She said Musiq was supposed to sing at the ceremony. I had Musiq give Toya a “make good” with an impromptu serenade live on the air of his smash record “Love.”

Music Superproducer Jazze Pha weighed in on who he thought should play the roles of Whitney Houston & Bobby Brown in a movie about their lives. He also played a new music exclusive from his new artist, Gasner Allen.

Keith Sweat and I led a conversation about President Obama’s recent visit to ATL and the racist bumper stickers that are now being sold in Obama’s name. “Don’t Re-NIG in 2012,” “Lincoln freed the slaves and now Obama is enslaving the free.”

Nelly & Chilli gave their opinions on a phenomenon that has been discussed at length: “Why women can’t seem to find Mr. Right in Atlanta.”

Trina Braxton, Demetria McKinney and I shared details about our childbirth stories. PUUUUUSSSSHHHHH!!! lolol…

Veteran music executive turned reality television producer, Mona Scott Young joined my show to discuss the upcoming season of “Love And Hip Hop: ATL.” She also confirmed that the original cast of “Love And Hip Hop” would have another season, but perhaps Chrissy would not be joining them. Mona eluded that Chrissy and Jim Jones were working on a spin off of the show. She also mentioned that she’d like to possibly do “Love And Hip Hop” Cali next!

Rap’s Most Buzzworthy Newcomer, Waka Flaka Flame, and I laughed about some of the jobs we had as teenagers. I revealed that I used to be Chuck E Cheese in high school…..now that everyone knows that I’ve gotta kill ya! hehehe

This past Thursday I was the host of an exclusive V-103 “Soul Sessions” performance and Q&A session with R&B stars, Brandy and Monica.

Nicole Paultre-Bell, fiance of slain New York City groom-to-be Sean Bell and Dr. Steven Perry, author and CNN education contributor, each called in to share their thoughts on the Trayvon Martin killing. And I witnessed the most amazing thing……6,000 students from Clark, Morehouse, Spellman and Georgia Tech rallied on the steps of  Georgia Capital Building for the “I AM TRAYVON MARTIN” RALLY.

This is only the beginning…

“On Air With Egypt” can now be heard daily Monday-Friday from 10 am-2 pm on 103.5 FM in Atlanta and via the internet at www.V-103.com.

Former Fugees member Wyclef Jean may not not have been successful in his bid for president of Haiti, but has been called upon to drop his knowledge to the Ivy League.

Clef accepted an appointment to serve as a visiting fellow at Brown University in their Department of African Studies this school year. The rapper/politician is set to take part in activities related to the Universities’ Haitian Initiative, which includes lectures, classes and conversations with faculty.

“Take that, take that!” *Diddy voice*

Go Clef!!!!

Beyonce will make a guest appearance on Britain’s Next Top Model on Monday! The diva will present one of the challenges to the hopeful models. Their challenge will be to shoot the commercial for her new fragrance, HEAT.

The fact that Mrs. Carter has agreed to guest on Britain’s Top Model, but never on Tyra Banks‘ Top Model makes me wonder, what type of pull Brit model Elle Macpherson has over Tyra?

Oh well… too bad we don’t get British channels here in the US, that’s gonna be an episode to see…. but I’m sure Americans will be able to stream the popular show online! POW!

Singer Fantasia Barrino and her alleged love sponge Antwaun Cook are together again! The streets are buzzing that the R&B singer won her “love bug” back by showering him with gifts– the expensive kind…*wink wink*

Cook, who’s married by the way, was rumored to have gone back to his wife a few months ago in the spring. But after receiving his new toy, I guess he had a change of heart….

A set of wheels, or in this case a motorcyle was enough to get Cook back in Fantasia’s kitchen, I mean bedroom. Lol

Pop  the Top for more Fantasia news, where the singer is linked with another hottie who isn’t Antwaun…
