Press Play: Ms. Kelly

second in command back in the DC3 days Ms. Kelly's
album was not as big as Ms. Bee of course but i liked it
after listening to it I was really surprised. Thought it wouldve
been bigger than it was. Guess the world just isint ready for an more
adult KElly. With songs like Come back && Put it in...

cop that disc: the odd couple

Gnarls Barkley.
soulful something different in an age of difference
the pics alone give you what you need. without the music Gnarls Barkley s imagination is satisfiying. with the success of the last collection i didnt really think we could get anything too different but here we are. i first heard the single 4run on C.O.A.'s ringtone a few weeks back && i have been feeling the odd couple once more since then. they released this project three weeks early. hmm.

Gnarles Barkley: the odd couple

run is already number 36 on Billboards modern rock chart. congrads Barkley

Press Play: Dirty Rose

Ive been hearing this song on the radio alot lately
i like the song, the group sounds kinda Day 26ish
but Day 26 sounds rather "we're trying our best to imitate old skool-ish"

Dirty Rose also has another song
it gives you a D.C. go go sound: If it wasn't 4 you

::the way that i love you::

In this video Ashanti is back in her element. Giving you a theatric breakup with a very handsome leading man. The beginning of the song gave me Auntie Mary J. Blidge, honestly before i knew who this was thas who i assumed it would be. && through out the video Ashanti put me in the mind of a younger Tina Knowles. Yes Ashanti gave me Tina. Im thinking its the skirt and animal print top with the big hair and slightly overdone makeup. its chic though Get it cousin Ashanti.

Though Leon seems to think that this is the summer/year of the female rapper, i say the R&B girls are here to stay. Disappearing NO time soon

Are you ready for the Biggie experience?

Searching and searching...... producers of the "Notorious" film finally found the right one to play one of the illest rappers ever, that's right "Biggie". Let me tell you this dude looks just like him just a younger version of him. Jamal Woolard is a brooklyn rapper better known as Gravy in the streets. (Good Inspiration)I'm sure this movie is going to be hotttttttttt!P.Diddy will be played by Derek Luke, while Anthony Mackie has been cast as the famous Tupac Shakur. Angela Bassett is set to appear as Mrs. Wallace. (not sure if she's the right one for Mrs.Wallace but we'll see)Former 3LW member Naturi Naughton has also been given an as-yet-unspecified role in the film, which begins filming in New York this month with director George Tillman and is slated for release January 16, 2009.

women: Cassie V.

::As seen in GQ::


A couple of years ago, a brown-eyed Connecticut teenager named Cassie Ventura snuck up on the country with “Me & U,” a simple, slinky MySpace single that sounded like it could have been played at a high school dance in 1985. The song’s success was propelled by an inexpensive Flashdance-homage video of a lithe, navel-baring Cassie strutting around a mirrored studio in sweats, and the effect was… You know, this is one of those things that if we try to explain it, it will sound moronic. It just worked. “Me & U” shot to the top of the charts. Cassie Ventura became known simply as Cassie.
