Common ft. Kanye West- Punch Drunk Love

The Neptunes produced "Punch Drunk Love," by Common ft. Kanye West recently leaked. Punch Drunk Love is off Common's upcoming album "Universal Mind Control." Ever since I got my hands on the track listing I've been literally on the edge of my seat to hear it. Based off the name of the song and the people involved I knew it would be hot! I'm lovin this song.I love the production, how could you ever go wrong with the Neptunes? I can't wait to hear more. Common's, Universal Mind Control" hits store December 9th.

Beyonce on Tyra

I really enjoyed this interview. You definately see a different side of Bey. I like that Tyra asked interesting questions instead of the same cookie cutter questions people ask these stars.

It's a really good interview so watch!





Single Ladies Performance...I never get tired of it!

Beyonce on the AMA's

Here is Beyonce's performance on The American Music Awards. This girl really is fierce! I know it must be hard to pull off a performance like that and sing in tune. What is really killing me right now are these men (Ne-Yo and The-Dream) writing female anthems. It kind of makes me a little uncomfortable. How about you?

Check it:

Jamie Foxx ft. T.I.- Just Like Me

Here is the new video from Jamie Foxx ft. T.I.-Just Like Me. Although I already liked the song the video made me like it even more. It's hilarious watching Jamie Foxx compete with actress Taraji P. Henson (Hustle & Flow, The Family That Preys)with everything from Guitar Hero to a Hot dog eating contest. Jaime's "Intuition" is set to hit stores December 16th.

Check it:

Ne-Yo- Mad

I was a little disappointed with Ne-Yo's latest album, "Year of the Gentlemen." I guess I just expected more based off of his last two albums along with the material he's being writing for other artists such as Beyonce'. Although I'm not really into his most recent single, "Mad" I do like the video.

Gym Class Hero's Ft. Estelle- Guilty As Charged

My Girl Is On The Map!!!

I am so happy right now!!! Janelle Monae' is getting the best exposure ever by being featured on the new Gap Ads. I think she is so talented and am so glad to see that she is getting her voice out there...

Take a look..

Beyonce' on AOL Sessions

This girl is everywhere! I can't even keep up...

Let me know what you think:

Single Ladies




If I Were A Boy

The more and more that I hear this song the more I appreciate it. It's just amazing or shall I say the Beyonce'-Ne-yo combo is amazing...

Rihanna ft. Justin Timberlake-Rehab

Well this is the first and only song I've ever really liked by Rihanna. Timbaland does it again! He never fails. I've had this song on repeat for like months now so finally seeing a video is pretty exciting. I'm not too sure what the video has to do with the song (or maybe it's going over my head?) But I'm loving Rihanna's wardrobe and the Justin Timberlake eye candy...

What do we think?

Keyshia Cole released the cover of her new album. I definitely like Keysia's hair black...

Here is Keyshia's new song featuring Tupac, "Play your Cards Right." If this song gets any air play (which I hope) I believe radio will love it. This sounds like a radio friendly song...

Beyonce' on Oprah

Watch:

THE FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN PRESIDENT!! BARACK OBAMA!

THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING THING EVER! I have never cried tears of joy in my life. Obama is the first African American President!I have followed this man's career in politics for years and I am proud to say that he has proven that through hope and hard work anything is possible. What a wonderful inspiration to all! He has turned me into a positive person that believes I do or be anything that I set my mind to! I know that he is going to turn our country around and everyday I wake up I feel like we have made such progress as a country. All I can say is I am so HOPEFUL for the future...

Jon B. "Helpless Romantic"

This man NEVER disappoints! I have every single one of Jon B.'s albums and they are always amazing. Jon B's latest effort, "Helpless Romantic" is a pure R&B album, and is pretty good from beginning to end. The vocals on this album are out of this world. One of my favorite song's on the album is "In Too Deep," which appears to tell the story of women who has been through some bad relationships, and he (Jon B.) is going to be the man to make up for all the bad experiences and all the times she was left crying. I love that! Call me corny but that is the sweetest thing ever.

It really sucks because this album didn't see the promotions and marketing that it needed but I just want to spread the word that this is a great album with quality music. If you are into R&B then you will appreciate this album. It is on repeat in my car!

Check out my two favorite songs on the album:

PEEP THIS!!!

A Plea to Whitney Houston

Whitney Houston owns the rights to one of my favorite movies, the 1976 film "Sparkle." I believe several years ago she was in a bidding war with Halle Berry to get the movie. I would've been happy to see either one of them produce the movie as long as it didn't end up some Lifetime special or something. The movie stars Irene Cara(Flashdance Soundtrack,Fame), Lonette McKee(Cotton Club, ATL), Phillip Michael Thomas(Miami Vice) Dwan Smith, Mary Alice, Dorian Harewood, and Tony King. Curtis Mayfield worked as the composer and producer of Sparkle's songs and score. While Aretha Franklin added her vocals to the soundtrack. "Sparkle" is an amazing movie based on a family of women and their music career. The music is awesome in this movie and it happens to include Aretha Franklin's- "Somethin He Can feel," which was sampled by EnVouge and the performances in the movie inspired a scene in "School Daze". Before Aaliyah passed away she was set to play the leading role in the movie. Which I felt she would've been perfect for. It really breaks my heart that we didn't get to see her in the movie because I believe she would've done an great job. Since the passing of Aaliyah there has been talk that the producers were talking to Ashanti and Raven Simone to play the leading role. Not a good idea. I can understand why almost every songstress/actress wants to be in this movie but how do you go from Aaliyah to Asanti? First of all I don't think she has the chops or the acting ability to play this part. I feel like it's an insult to the movie. As far as Raven Simone goes, I love the girl. I think she awesome but not right for the part at all. Now people are talking about the fact that the producers have scratched the first two choices and are approaching Jordan Sparks to play Sparkle. I know this girl can sing but she just isn't right for the part in my opinion. My suggestion for this role would be Alicia Keys. I realize that she only has a couple of movies under her belt but I think she would be incredible for the part. I'm so nervous about this, just as I was about "Dreamgirls." But I think they did it the right way, casting Beyonce' in the lead role because she is a huge star and she is equally talented. I believe that because their voices are so similar, she could even play Lonette Mckee's part as "Sister." My plea to Whitney Houston and the producers of "Sparkle" is that they PLEASE consider Alicia Keys for this part....

On a side note, I've also heard that they've approached Chris Brown for the part of Stix, one of the male leading roles in the movie. Now that's exciting!!!

Watch a couple of the music scenes from the movie:
