This image was posted on Kanye's blog, apparently he shot the video in Denmark. No word on an official release date, but it's done. I'm so psyched, I think I just peed a little.
*bites down hard w/ big grin*

I agree with Kanye West's Blog
this shit is dope!

I was perusing Concrete Loop and I'm diggin this new track by Estelle (featuring Kanye)!

So a friend told me about Zero 7.
I'm completely engrossed in them right now.
Can't stop playing it in my head.
check em out.
It's perfect for just relaxin.
seriously go get one of their albums.

I'm supremely disappointed with Janet Jackson's video "Feedback".
It is sub par, tacky, and plain.
Was it sponsored by Cap'N Crunch?
I refuse to say "she's done it again!" because if this is what she is coming back with she's in for a rude awakening.
"Feedback" looks like it was made in the 80's and not in the cool, nuanced, "Sexual Seduction" way. I think she needs to re-do that entire thing. I'm willing to help, pro bono. Mind you, she looks incredible! This video is just not on the level of the song, the song is high energy, sexy, and technical...This video is awkward, weird, and kinda---dare I say it: WACK.

Some one explain the significance of the Crunch Berries please, is that the new trend? Cereal? I don't get it.

What was the budget? $2,000?

I want this song soooooo bad it hurts...
but unfortunately I can't find it.

another song that i have to have...

I was waiting in line at the bookstore. I saw a book that I remember seeing when I was a freshman, standing in line. I started to flashback to the defining moments of my college experience. The fun, folly, and fights...The grades, the babes, and the sage. This song immediately resonated in my head.
College: to put it simply, the best four years of my life (so far).

Everybody goes through shit, but having CNN covering your private life--thats another level. It's as if her life/reality is the world's "reality tv show" it seems scripted and entertaining and fabricated, but in reality it's not... I think the media is hoping for the worst...I wonder if the "journalist" who are covering this think about the other pressing social issues...Nah, they'd rather sensationalize and exploit celebrities...*yawn* ET, E!, MTV, CNN cover something else please.

I like The Dream's CD. Mind you, his songs have a similar, disticnt sound, but hey the same could be said for Timbo and/or Pharrell. It's a good ride record. He has a different voice, he's got his own things going..eh-eh-eh-eh...LOL (I'm lame). You gotta admit, it's catchy.

So a friend told me to check out the January issue of spin magazine.
I did.
Now you go pick it up.
It's well worth the few bucks.
I'm all about these two characters so I posted their pics but the magazine features a myriad of other influential artist, they covered all bases.

Amy Winehouse blew up last year with her second album "Back to Black". The sultry sounds, and pain ridden lyrics hit the masses and made her a household name. Personal struggles aside, Ms. Winehouse is a force reckoned with. Amy's first album is much better than her second. "Frank", I should have posted this last year, but I was reminded during a conversation with a friend.



My favorites: "No Greater love" "Put It In The Box" "Fuck Me Pumps" & "I Heard Love Is Blind"
Listen:

I think you should go listen to her album, I like it. I think she is really slept on, maybe those damn Pussycat Dolls put some roots on her, or maybe she's just too smoldering hot for own good, but Nicole is the shit.



Listen to the album:

I took this video at her album release show at Apache Cafe in 2007...Tell me she ain't the truth, and I will call you a lier.

"You still playing Sega!?"

I tend to listen to this track with this nasty ass facial expression, like I'm about to spit something vicious and raw, and I only end up saying: "Yeah!" or "Unh!". I got a tall glass of water, and some sherbet, I feel it, its good. I'm currently complacent. This winter break has been a slice of cheesecake,unfortunately this bliss will soon be sealed with a kiss. *shrugs* at least I have my sherbet and water, sometimes thats all you really need.

-C#@$3

I've been uninspired, the notoriously temperamental winters of Atlanta mixed with the often task-less days of my break have left me in a dire state of musical confusion. The Dream's album is pretty good--Janet & Britney are always in rotation. I hum M.I.A. "Paper Planes" while I iron, & I eat/sleep/ and live for the Cool Kids [pedal down--u know the rest]. At even that slightest whisper of Janelle Monae, my toe taps.
Don't get me wrong I'm content...I guess even happy, but I want more...
It feels like a relationship that lacks spice, prompting a sudden urge for audio infidelity. My ears have a mind of their own, at even the slightest hint of new music or artist they perk and my palms begin to sweat. Sometimes I'm consumed by temptation so intensely that I find myself online looking on imeem, and mtv, scrounging around looking for a quick hook up. I'm not proud of it, but I even went so far as to go to Best Buy and aimlessly wander the music section.Temptation, lurks within...Sometimes I just wanna grab some headphones and get down! With this in mind, I see that though I have a firm bond with my current play-list, I can't commit fully without exploring alternative means of audio satisfaction. After some serious conversations with myself, an open relationship is feasible...Now that the guilt is gone...alls I need is some sideline action...Serious inquiries only, please send stats, label, and genre. No pedestrians.

John Legend legend has launched his own record label
[HomeSchool Records]

I caught a glimpse of some of his artist on TVone a few weeks ago. It was a great concert. I've had the immense pleasure of seeing John Legend live [w/ Robin Thicke] and it was an incredible night to say the least. I saw Estelle's video in rotation on MTV. I like it, it's a like soul mixed with MOD fashion, locked in a smokehouse and cured with a seasoning blend of spice, juke joint jazz and British Hip Hop. 2008 may be their year, only time will tell. check it out.
