Ryan Leslie – You’re Not My Girl

Drake - Best I Ever Had [video]  


There's a lot of negative twitter buzz around this video. I think it works, it's funny. Not to mention riddled with humongous breast and ample asses. I like how he only taught them how to stretch and how in the end they weren't the best but the worst. It felt like a blend between "Wouldn't Get Far"(The Game) and "Play" (David Banner) with a better aesthetic (a nice grimmy high school gloss). I wouldn't say it's a great video, but it isn't bad. I hope and pray for a "Little Bit" video that features Drizzy and Lykke Li. I think a nice mellow artsy video with bleak lighting and vivid colors would suite it.

Master Shortie EXCLUSIVE CONTENT.  

Photobucket

I got my grubby little paws on some exclusive MASTER SHORTIE content via his people. If you're not familiar (get familiar, LOL) with RAK Studios in London [click here]. Shortie joined the ranks of artist like Paul McCartney, Radiohead, Adele and Duffy when he had a session and recorded at this renowned studio. If you're in the states you probably haven't had the pleasure of hearing his RAK Studio Sessions material but fret not. *in his Master P voice* I got the HOOK UP, HOLLA IF YOU HEAR'ME!
RAK Studio Sessions:
1. Bringing It Back
2. Dance Like A White Boy
3. Groupie Love
4. Rope Chain
5. Swagger Chick


Also, I must insist that you check out his videos.
He shot videos for:
Dance Like A White Boy
Dead End (Old)
Dead End (New & Official)
& Rope Chain (which I posted below)
Check out these videos and others on Shortie's YouTube page.

Seems Like Streetlights...  

Kanye West - Street Lights [OFFICIAL VIDEO] from Burnocchio Story. on Vimeo.


Kanye released this a few days ago. I'm posting it now because I didn't know if it was the real deal. "Streetlights" is not a single but he (a man who is all about artistry) still made a video for it. "Streetlights" is my favorite song from 808's because it's so dour and sincere--much like the rest of the album, LOL but even still I like MOST. This video reminds me of those video games outside of walmart, where you get in to a sliced car replica and frantically turn the wheel and pump the gas throttling toward some obscure digital destination...I didn't like the "Heartless" video so much but oddly, this one I enjoy---there's something about it.

Mom cancels her son’s World of Warcraft account…world ends  


I got this from elitaste.com/blog/.
This can't be real.
He went ham over a video game.
I rather enjoyed his Exorcist impersonation.
If this is real his little brother is a scoundrel and I like his style.

Me & The CDC  

Last year I took part of a video project with the CDC for an effort
they we're launching called CDC TV. I totally forgot about it.
Well...it's launched. I got the email today. I look and sound awkward
but hey anything to get the word out there right...
sidenote: I LOOK SO WEIRD WITH HAIR.

Ladies and Germs...JONTE.  

Photobucket
JONTE is a force of nature that combines trace amounts of the naturally occurring
elements: Grace Jones, Prince, and Keith Haring. He's an ode to androgyny and a
sonnet to sexuality.
This choreography is insane...The art direction is magnificent!
DARE TO BE DIFFERENT...HE DOUBLE DARES YALL.

THANKS URBAN DICTIONARY!

Janelle Monae is the conqueror of worlds.  

Photobucket
Jane Lee featured on BLACKVOICES.com

Attempting to classify Janelle Monáe is a waste of time.

The Kansas City native has been making her rounds at some of the year's top festivals, including SXSW and Bonaroo. And if her tuxedo and black-and-white saddle shoes are any indicator of what's to come, then her show is definitely a break from the norm.

This week, the petite 25-year-old hits the road again, opening for pop group No Doubt's reunion tour. She's been known to throw water on the audience, finger paint and crowd surf.

Her out-of-the-box display of showmanship has clearly worked to her advantage.

"I don't marginalize black people or white people. They either like it or they don't," Monáe declared during an interview with BV Newswire. "People discuss my art and talk about it as though they understand it, but it is never required of them to understand what I am doing. I don't get frustrated by that. I can't help my skin color, but it is very important to show that [black people] are not monolithic, and I'm redefining the stereotypes that have been placed on us."

Rock With You. Was THE BEST.  


Photobucket



Say what you will. Michael Jackon's name was synonymous with the King of Pop. King meaning ruler and Pop referring to "Popular Music". That's a meaningful moniker that speaks to true talent and creativity. He was the single most influential ARTIST of our time. He will be missed but never forgotten, ever.
- Chase of CHASEOLOGY.COM


Michael was a kind soul with endless talent. He was explosive on stage. His songs benchmark some of the most important moments of my life. I know his fans all over the world share my sadness. Thank you Michael for teaching us our ABC's and 123's Nobody wears a glove like you do. Nobody walks the moon like you do. There will never be another star that shines like you do. I love you Michael!
- Nia Long

I honestly don't think I can handle this right now. Why does it feel like family? My heart is really hurting.
- Solange

I'm hurt. I'm celebrating his life and his music. Dancing and crying and dancing in public. Holding heart-to-heart conversations with complete strangers about one of the things, if not the only thing, we share in common, That Is The Legendary MoonWalker Himself. A white guy in a pickup truck pulled alongside me on the expressway and shouted to me, had I heard about Mike?!? It's surreal and it's everywhere!!! Every time I feel like getting sad, one of his songs comes on, and I'm just filled with

This is my good friend K'Roc he did this tribute like a year and a half ago.
