Producer Polow Da Don added a fifth award to his BMI collection as he was given Songwriter of the Year honors at BMI's 56th Annual Pop Awards last night.
The honor is the result of his success writing four of 2007's top 50 songs including the Pussycat Dolls "Buttons" ft. Snoop Dogg; Fergie's "London Bridge," and "Glamorous" ft. Ludacris as well as "Runaway Love," by Luda ft. Mary J. Blige.
While Polow currently holds four other BMI awards, this marked his first time winning BMI Pop Songwriter of the Year.
The event was held at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Los Angeles. Other honorees included Publisher of the Year EMI-Blackwood Music, Inc, and Daryl Hall and John Oates, who were honored as BMI Icons. Previous BMI Icons include James Brown, Carlos Santana and Isaac Hayes. SOURCE
Foxy's former manager and CEO of Black Hand Entertainment, Chaz "Slim" Williams, spoke out recently, firing back at the Brooklyn rapper's harsh criticism of the album that was released under his tutelage.
In case she may want to make a bigger deal of her displeasure with the record, Williams, who was spotlighted on an episode of BET's documentary series American Gangster last year, issued a warning to Fox Boogie.
"I just want you to know that in times of peace you prepare for war, and you better bet I'm prepared, so I would advise as a cautionary measure, a caveat, don't even do it."
The two have parted ways after working together for over a year.
Next month, Koch plans on re-releasing Brooklyn's Don Diva with a more structured promotional campaign, which includes five new records, videos, publicity and mass marketing. The disc won't hit shelves without Foxy's say-so. SOURCE
Beyonce Knowles has finally come clean about her secret marriage to Jay-Z, admitting that she won’t deny their union.

Knowles has finally acknowledged the wedding, stating: She says, "I don't deny it (the wedding). I just don't talk about it.
“We've never talked about us and it's kind of protected our relationship. I think it's kept us out of tabloid drama.
"A lot of actresses that have had successful relationships don't talk about them, so neither do I." SOURCE

Polow - defending himself against the allegations that his "Love In The Club" beat was nothing more than a garage-band keyboard preset, had this to say,
“If a ten-year-old can make ‘Love in This Club’ and save Usher’s career and make black women want to f*ck him again, after they was done with him for getting married, then sh*t he’s a genius just like me,” Polow said. “I also wrote the hook - that’s not a preset."
Dude - I wanna like you. But you just keep talkin...
