Singer JoJo Takes On A Cover Of Marvin’s Room By Drake

admin Jun 14 11 3 Comments

Now you know we don’t normally feature JoJo, but here’s a petty dope cover that the pop singer did to Drake’s new track Marvin’s Room. Now Marvin’s Room is a laidback song focusing on a man’s drunken call to a former girlfriend, and Jojo does a great job of switching the gender roles on her cover. There’s also a lot of f***’s spread throughout the track, somewhat strange coming from the former teen pop star. Check out the track and tell me what y’all think about the cover. How does it compare to the Drake’s? Let me know in the comments!

Kelly Rowland Releases ‘Motivation’ (Urban Mix) + Shoots Footage For The X-Factor UK

admin Jun 6 11 1 Comment

 

My girl Kelly Rowland has been doing it big lately! Her single ‘Motivation’ is currently the number one urban song in the country, but you could probably guess that already with the fifty-leven remixes of it that are out. Well, here’s another one to add to the list, but people are saying that this could be the best remix of ‘Motivation’ yet. The Motivation (Urban Mix) features verses from Busta Rhymes, Trey Songz, and Fabolous, and I gotta say it’s HOT. Check it out!

 

 

Kelly has also been busy in the U.K. filming for the country’s version of The X-Factor.

 

 

In case you don’t know, The X-Factor is a competition show similar in style to American Idol, and there’s actually an American version premiering later this year. She was looking GOOD in Glasgow as she exited her hotel to go watch auditions from the many hopefuls wanting to earn a spot on the show.

So what y’all think about the Motivation (Urban Mix)? How about Kelly in England? Let me know! Read More »

Rihanna Premieres ‘Man Down’ Official Video + Cosmo Interview

admin May 31 11 0 Comments

Hot 100 princess Rihanna has released another video from her LOUD album. ‘Man Down’ is the fifth single to be released from the singer for this era, and this clip has a dark undertone in contrast to the generally light hearted videos Rihanna has put out for this album. The video includes her shooting a man, as the lyrics state, as well as the events leading up to that shooting.

While similar to her videos for her last studio album, Rated R, this clip is for lack of a better words, boring. A lot could have been done with such a visually based song but it seemed like this clip relied on Rihanna standing around and posing.

Basically, Rihanna’s gotta do better if she wants that reign not to let up y’all. LOL.

Excerpts from Rihanna’s interview with Cosmo Magazine have also surfaced, and they are… interesting. Get inside Rihanna’s head right here!

Tiffany Evans Takes On Beyoncé With A Cover Of Speechless

admin May 27 11 4 Comments

One of ATL’s own princess’s, Miss Tiffany Evans, has put a cover of the Beyoncé  song ‘Speechless’ up on her youtube channel. Now you know Tiffany is my homegirl, so I might be a little biased, but she KILLS the track.  Everyone knows that Beyoncé can sing, and this is a song that requires actual SINGING, and Tiffany proves that she can do just that with this interpretation.

So tell me in the comments what y’all think about Miss Tiff’s sangin’? LOL.

Kelly Rowland Reaches Number 1 On Billboard + Beyoncé Sings Backstage On American Idol

admin May 26 11 0 Comments

So it looks like Ms. Kelly has a bona fide hit on her hands with this one! After numerous false starts, the singer has edged closer to the stardom of her Destiny’s Child counterpart with Motivation, which has just reached the top of Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop chart. The slinky jam, which featured Lil Wayne, has also achieved this feat with very little promotion from Kelly herself, and despite only being released to Urban music formats.

Motivation is now Kelly’s best performing solo single to date, and should help get the ball rolling on her much-delayed ‘Here I Am’ LP, which is due later this year. You can do it Kelly! We believe in you baby! LOL

Speaking of Destiny’s Child members, footage of Beyoncé was captured yesterday, showing a rare behind the scenes look at the power of her voice. The footage was captured by Jay Z, and shows her singing her new single 1+1 backstage before her performance on the season finale of American Idol. As usual, Bey KILLS this impromptu performance, showing why she should be counted for her voice as well as her hit making ability.

Breaking News! Bishop Eddie Long Settles Court Case!

admin May 26 11 4 Comments

Y’all thought it was over with Eddie didn’t y’all? Well apparently, it might be soon. I just got breaking news that The Bishop of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church has reportedly reached an agreement with the four men who claimed that Long coerced them into sexual relationships. The troubled pastor could only reach the settlement after some mandatory court-ordered mediation sessions. But apparently he’s off the hook, if at least for now. We probably won’t know the details until gag orders are lifted in ten years and the tell-all books come out.

What are y’alls thoughts about Eddie’s settlement? Let me know in the comments!

Luther “Uncle Luke” Campbell Loses In Election For Mayor Of Miami

admin May 26 11 0 Comments

It looks like Uncle Luke wants to add another title to his name, Mayor of Miami-Dade County. After former Miami mayor Carlos Alvarez was voted out of office in March, Uncle Luke has thrown himself in the ring of mayoral candidates. However, the former member of 2 Live Crew, real name Luther Campbell, will have to wait at least another year for that to happen. Luke finished in fourth place in Tuesday’s special elections, collecting a somewhat small 11 % of the vote. Read More »

Lil Wayne Shows Us ‘How To Love’ On New Carter IV Leak + Rumored New Girlfriend

admin May 26 11 1 Comment

So apparently Lil Wayne is making sure he hits all targets with this new album. A new single off his hotly anticipated “Tha Carter IV” album has leaked, and it’s a lot different from what y’all would expect from the 6 Foot 7 Foot rapper.

The banjo banger, produced by Detail, features the rapper singing over a slow ballad about the girl of his dreams. If you’re looking for another 6 Foot & Foot, then you gotta look somewhere else, but this actually works in an R&B meets Bluegrass meets Folk way.

Speaking of Weezy’s love, everybody and they momma’s out here wondering who is this girl that keeps appearing next to the rapper everywhere he goes these days.

According to Complex (with some twitter/facebook sleuthing), it turns out this chick is named Dhea and works at *waits for it* a sexy nightclub in Scottsdale, Arizona. The two have been pretty much inseparable lately, so I guess Lil Wayne might have finally settled down. LOL. Check out some more pics of the two and tell me what y’all think about the new single and new couple!
