Fidel Castro wrote in a letter to his country yesterday that he’s no longer able to talk publicly. /AP

From the DIRT email I get once a day. 

Can’t talk publicly?  Wake up and smell American commerce and tourism crashing the Cuban party.  Da Beard is DEAD.

I just…I can’t. 

From their MySpace Page: “One afternoon, the duo auditioned for LA Reid, the impresario helming Island / Def Jam. “He literally called a lawyer and wouldn’t let us leave the office before we signed a contract,” recalls Lewis, chuckling at the memory. But that deal quickly dissolved.”

BK’s Hit Predictor — Leona Lewis - “Bleeding Love”  I heard this song for the first time in September, when CD debuted it at our yearly Q4 Music Convention.  I wish I could have posted it then, because I knew after one listen that it would be massive.  Not only will the song be a worldwide smash, but Leona could make a debut splash that will surely be compared to Whitney’s early days.

Fun Fact:  The song was co-written by Ryan Tedder, who wrote Apologize.

Macworld Guessing Game - UPDATE

From yesterday:

Macworld Guessing Game

Tomorrow, Steve Jobs will deliver his annual keynote address at the Macworld Convention in San Francisco.  Here are a few guesses:

Likely To Be Announced:

-iTunes Music Store (ITMS) offering Movie RENTALS with a sharper price point/limited viewing period — competitive advantage? try putting Netflix on your iPod

-Fairplay Software Deal with Major Movie/TV Studios - the way you can rip a CD on your iPod will now be possible for Movies/TV Shows (finally)

-New Macbooks

-Apple TV Update

UPDATE: Correct on all 4.  Except there’s only one new Macbook…The Macbook Air.

The Verdict: 5/10

Earth Shattering If Announced (and QUITE possible):

-The Beatles available on the ITMS

-Beatles iPod Thing-A-Ma-Jig (similar concept to the U2 device, but much more creative/expensive/memorable — I’ve actually heard rumors of an iPod shaped like a Yellow Submarine with the entire catalogue pre-loaded)

Will Not Happen, So Stop Speculating About It:

- Apple Record Label Deal with Jay-Z - iHov Records has ZERO ring to it

-Radiohead catalogue available on iTunes
