Watch: Ne-Yo “Closer”

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 [...]

Watch: Rihanna- Take A Bow

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 [...]

Introducing Girlicious

I think we’ve already established that I am a reality tv semi-junkie…so I make no apologies about being a fan of the show “Pussycat Dolls Presents: Girlicious”. As a matter of fact…a lot of folks I know like the show (so there! lol). Anyway…last night was the finale and the group was assembled. I’m so [...]

Music from New Artists: Wynter Gordon & Sheena Grier

So a few HM readers have requested that I post up some music from a new artist by the name of Wynter Gordon.  Normally I don’t post music from new new artists, because it’s not as easy to be brutally honest about people new to the scene (I do have a heart after all) and it just [...]

Thumbs Up or Down: Madonna “Beat Goes On” featuring Kanye West and Pharrell

Madonna has a new track called “Beat Goes On” featuring Kanye West and Pharrell. I’ve always like Madonna for her ability to reinvent herself and stay current regardless of what musical sound was the hottest. Now she seems to be trying to link up more with Hip Hop artists(in her own very Pop-ish way). I’m [...]

Listen: Bonus Track from “Exclusive”- Chris Brown “Forever”

Chris Brown is re-releasing his album “Exclusive” with video and bonus tracks. Here is a bonus track called “Forever”. Although I probably wouldn’t buy a Chris Brown album, I actually like him and his music is cool…but, this song is not hot. I’m not feeling the production at all…it’s just not the right sound for [...]

Battle of the Tracks: Karina Pasian vs. Cassie Singing “Official Girl”

Karina Pasian has a demo song “Official Girl” that has already been done but unreleased by Cassie. I never thought the day would come where I would ever say that Cassie sang a song better than someone else. Perhaps Karina has a stronger voice (even though she had some shaky spots)…but Cassie has a better [...]

Watch: Madonna “4 Minutes” featuring Justin Timberlake

Madonna has a new video for her song “4 Minutes” featuring Justin Timberlake and Timbaland. Madonna is looking fantastic these days (isn’t she like almost 50?), but JT…not so much. This song is kinda hot…you gotta give Madonna credit for being able to constantly reinvent herself and keep her music current. The video has some [...]
