T.I. has a new song called “No Matter What”. I’m not really feeling this…the beat doesn’t impress me and the chorus is a little cheesy. The production is totally counter productive to his attempt to sound defiant and self-assured. Better luck next time. Click here to listen
What do you guys think of the track?

Plies has a new video for his song “Bust It Baby Part 2″ featuring Ne-Yo. Ne-Yo slightly classes up the joint, but I just can’t get with Plies. I’m sure I’ll never listen to this song again after the video ends, but for whatever reason this guy has fans, so enjoy.

The Dream has a new video for his song “I Luv Your Girl” with Young Jeezy thrown on there. I think Young Jeezy’s verse was totally unnecessary, but most R&B singers feel compelled to throw a rapper on for the sake of having one. I hate to admit it, but I love this song. I’ve [...]
Jay-Z recorded a diss song about DeShawn Stevenson in defense of his buddy Lebron James that was played at Love in D.C. this weekend (and of course made its way to the blogosphere). Click here to listen
Washington Post has the story:
Jay-Z, the Jigga Man, H-to-the-Izzo, Mr. Beyonce Knowles,
made a diss record about DeShawn Stevenson that [...]
Lil Wayne’s “Lollipop” is turning into a huge hit and even I can’t resist the catchiness of this song. This is one of those joints that everyone I come across loves. Well Young Jeezy hopped on a remix to the track and added his own flavor to it. I don’t think anyone can really match [...]
Chris Brown has a new-ish (yeah I’m 3 weeks late on this) video for his song “Take You Down” and all I have to say is wow. I hope his concerts have a PG-13 (minimum) rating, because all that shirtless gyrating is a bit much for a young crowd. At any rate…I’m sure this video [...]
LL Cool J has a new track called “The 5 Boroughs is Back” featuring Jim Jones, Method Man, Lil Kim, and KRS-One. I won’t even pretend like this is my cup of tea at all. This is waaaay too east coast for my taste. Click here to listen

Ne-Yo has a new video for his song “Closer”. Even though the video takes place in a typical plain sound stage, he actually managed to make it more visually interesting with the different “special” (which is probably a strong word) effects. Ne-Yo said he is planning on veering away from his strictly R&B sound by [...]
Rihanna has a new video for her song “Take A Bow”. I think the song is pretty lackluster, but I like that she actually tried to do a video with an actual plot. Unfortunately, it’s hard to show much emotion and energy for a song that is so…flat. I’m sure her fans will be happy [...]
The Roots have a new video for their single “Rising Up” featuring Chrisette Michele and Wale. The video is pretty simple…pretty much just them performing the song which I’m sure is just fine with Roots fans. When done right, performance videos can be really interesting and fun to watch (i.e. The Roots “Hot Music”)…but I [...]
