Video: Nelly Furtado - Mas (More)
Whoa NELLY!! Ms. Furtado gets gangsta at the end of this clip, and for good reason. Ladies, this song may be in Spanish, but the video speaks in a universal language. If you find that he ain't givin' you more, there may be a reason. Don't be naive... Check out Mas and her previous single Manos Al Aire on her new Spanish album Mi Plan in stores now!
Video: Corinne Bailey Rae - I'd Do It All Again
After some much needed time off, Corinne Bailey Rae is ready to come back and is wrapping up her sophomore album entitled The Sea, which should be in stores February 2010. I'd Do It All Again is the first single from that project and, like the rest of the album, is very personal in nature and speaks of her late husband. My heart goes out to her for the death of her husband and I wish her well. Her first album is still a favorite of mine so I can only imagine how great this one will be...
Video: Rihanna ft. Young Jeezy - Hard
"That Rihanna reign just won't let up..."
Gotta be one of my favorite joints off the album. The beat knocks, the hook is simple but means so much and Jeezy's verse seals the deal. Hard is the latest single off Rihanna's fourth album Rated R. In this high-fashion meets military clip, Rihanna struts her stuff touting the song's infectious line "I'm so HARD!!".
LIVE: Mary J. Blige Performs 'I AM' on SYTYCD Finale!
This was one of Mary's best performances of her new single I Am, from her forthcoming album Stronger With Each Tear hitting stores next week. Notice how each of her backup dancers embodies a different signature Mary look from an era in her career. Mary J. Blige is becoming a legend in her own right by continuing to make timeless music after 15 years in the game. Gotta luv that... By the way... CONGRATULATIONS TO Russell, a crumper without formal dance training who won this year's competition! He showed a lot of growth and a lot of versatility which was unexpected from a dancer with a native street style of dance! CONGRATS RUSSELL!!!
Leona Lewis Performs 'I See You' Live
This movie AVATAR better be the best thing smoking, because it's EVERYWHERE! Leona Lewis performed the theme song from the James Cameron-directed film which hits theaters this weekend. She sounded pretty good up until the climax of the song where she missed quite a few notes and got a little pitchy. I won't hold it against her though, that voice is solid!
Jennifer Lopez Performs 'Louboutins' LIVE!
J. Lo has been back on the block - the performing block that is. She's been hitting the circuit with her newest single Louboutins, an ode to the famed shoe designer. In this video, she hits the stage at this year's So You Think You Can Dance Finale with one of the best performance clips of the song yet! Her new album LOVE? is set to be in stores Spring 2010!
Alicia Keys ft. Raekwon and CNN - Empire State of Mind Pt. 2 (Remix)
Remixing a remix? You can't say you didn't expect this, I'm expecting even more remixes from every spitter in and from NYC. This joint has become an anthem, but not just for New York, it's become an anthem for America and we should take pride in celebrating one of our greatest cities. Bottom line: DOPE TRACK!!
Young Money - Where's Wayne?
Why is Young Money so hot on this track? Nicki Minaj kicks it off alongside Gudda, Tyga and more of the crew, who are clearly on a manhunt for their fearless leader over this hot beat. Since it won't be on the We Are Young Money collab project, maybe they should've held this joint til Wayne's prison sentence starts. Then we'll all really wonder... Where's Wayne?
