David Banner, The Game, Talib Kweli, among others have been open about their disgust at the verdict[along with the staff here at PMqn; Atlanta]. The Game released a new track-"911 is a joke" his own tribute to Sean Bell. Now Jay-Z is giving his response. Jay-Z has established an educational trust for the children of Sean Bell. Jay-Z is reportedly closely working with Sean Bell's widow, Nicole Paultre Bell, to institute the trust funds for both of their children.
[THE GAME TRIBUTE TO SEAN BELL]
You might remember Nicole Bell being involved in Jay-Z's Rocawear "I Will Not Lose" campaign that caused indignation within the NYPD's Benevolent Association about 2 years back.
Well following the success of Usher's Love in the club track ft. Young Jeezy; he's preformed at many different events such as the Hills Season Finale show, takes you back to the good ol' 8701 days, or the "yeah" days at the least right?
Well check him out ONCE AGAIN below on Saturday Night Live this past weekend...
August 26th. It all hits the fan. Will the soulful no so new comer sell more over the 4some with a new member; Pretty Ricky, say goodbye to Pleasure and Hello to...some new guy...
remember when pretty ricky first came out. all you could hear was "GRIND WITH ME" coming from your radio. then when the video came out, that made matters even worst. Not to mention that one note that everyone tried to hit emphasis on 'tried' [especially the singer himself] fall into the flashback joint below-pressplay courtesy of Pretty Ricky...smh
Well what do we have here. two of my long time running favs collaborating on something that's sure to be a hit. Maroon 5 ft. Rihanna for their single "If I never see your face again" both parties did good again for the umpteenth time. get into the video below
Toby Lightman. I was first introduced to this woman back in highschool via MTv by way of this song: devils and angels. This was one of the first white women that i had heard with such a soulful voice. i looked forward to seeing this video time after time. being an artist i can also appreciate the video itself: enjoy
For those of you who don't know already, I am a HUGE fan of live music. think its closest to the best. So as a follow up of the video devils and angels. I am happy to give you: devils and angels sung live. Press Play
Lil' Ms. Rehab herself strikes gold once again. Proving [yet again] that sobrity has nothing to do with good hits. Guess it's the 'Rick James effect' lmao. A very sublte and kinda sorta uplifting breakup-you did me wrong song. Does Amy seem to be Alicia Keys evil twin? lol, it would seem. Press Play and see what I mean.
"his message was brutal, but the delivery was kind"
This is the first official single from Jeeyz's new album "I Am Trap". [smh] In stores sometime in August or September. Some say this ish is tough. I say...well you listen and tell me what you say.
We see Kanye get's his T-Pain on in this one. but does his thing for sure.
Okay after this im going to get off of my soapbox. Solange, has been talented for awhile. im sure its a lil harder to make a name for yourself in the shadows of Ms. Carter. But she is talented. Solo star was not a destiny's child but it was a start. A look into what this lady has to offer. With that being said i refuse to post any Solo Star songs because when you go out and search and find them on your own, you'll feel better that you see for yourself what i mean.
What i am going to do is give you this jazz-ish record of Ms. Knowles to listen to. Freedom. Press Play
These three are consistantly making major moves. turning out good music time after time. truthfully the ri ri song was not one of my favorites. it was one that had to grow on me. Seeing the video help move that process along. I am even more in love with Rihanna than i was back in the pon de replay days. Of course Leon was the one who ridiculed me about not knowing that she had that cluster of stars on the back of her neck, but so what [lol]. Her entire look is priceless.
Trey, you did it with this one. i'd been hearing this song on the radio for a few weeks now. Mistakenly assuming this was some new guy in the music game,wrong. Truthfully again, i have never been a big Trey Songz fan. Not that he's not good at what he does, just that i never really took to him like i did to other artist. Fast foward a few years [today] i have been really feeling Trey. A force to be reckoned with i believe. This video is nice, not the boring ish that some ppl [who shall remain nameless] have been giving in the video department. My only issue with Trey now is how child like his appearace is. Guess that's just something i'm going to have to deal with, being a Trey fan now huh?
Not too much i can say about this one here. He has always been talented to me, or at least marketable. I remember my first time ever seeing Chris's name was back in the summer of 2005. "He's the next Usher" is what alot of people were saying. I'd like to respectfully disagree and follow up with "He's not the next Usher, but the first Chris Brown" [no homo]. I dont like everything that he makes but he's doing a darn good job at doing his job, which is something we all can resepect. Add to that i dont really see what serious competition he has at this time. Do You?
[lol, get into the screams from the girl holding the camera]
Her name is Nicole [Scherzinger] && she's calling all supervillians. if you've never heard this song befor press play and see if you're who she's talking about.
"dark hoody and jeans on, his swagga so mean, you know what i mean"
