New Alicia Keys Video: "Girl on Fire"





Neat video. Mrs. Beatz looked great, and it didn't seem like a recession special. Cool lighting and other techy stuff.  Is it enough to take the song to new heights? I don't know...

Brandy Live On Wendy Williams and Live With Kelly and Michael+Brandy Receives Tribute from India Arie





Brandy is doing the damn thing as she is heavy on the promo trail for her new album "Two Eleven." I could imagine what an honor it was getting a tribute from a great like India Arie, and to know that she was inspired by her. A well deserving tribute it was...

New Nicki Minaj Video: "The Boys" ft. Cassie



As I watched the video, I was trying to figure out what was blah about it. They looked good, it was colorful. Then I realized the video is not so bad, it's the song! I'm not sure if the video will be able to save it from the flop that it is becoming but I wish them well.

New Ne-Yo Song: Forever Now



Decent Pop record. I can see it doing well internationally. Now if we can just get an R&B smash with each pop record he is releasing, we will be all good with Ne-Yo.

New Videos: Busta Rhymes, Pleasure P, Bruno Mars, Wiz Khalifa, Justin Bieber ft. Nicki Minaj, Usher, Faith Evans, Meek Mill ft. Big Sean, Rick Ross, and Trey Songz.









Busta Rhymes-Dope Song, decent video, It went well with the song, but could have been more. Can we get another scene from the movie? lol
Pleasure P-The Expected. Unfortunately a recession special. A good song nonetheless. Dope Chicks in the video though.
Bruno Mars-Decent. I didn't expect a performance video, but for the cool cinematography he gets a pass. It's good to see something different.
Wiz Khalifa-Not bad...With a dope track like that it carries the video anyway lol
Justin Bieber ft. Nicki Minaj-Cool Vid. Dope Choreo and Acrobats. First time hearing the track, and Nicki's verse was dope. Arguably better than some hip hop tracks she has spat on as of lately. Good stuff Bieber.
Usher-Decent Video. Good he highlighted the obstacles he has faced the last couple of years. Good to see him still come out on top after everything he's been through.
Faith Evans-Decent Video. The song sounds like classic R&B and appreciate Faith Evans for always giving us that.
Meek Mill Ft. Big Sean-Cool Video, Dope Track. I like how they switched off on verses.
Rick Ross ft. Wale and Drake-Decent Video, but it looks like the rest of Rick Ross Videos.
Trey Songz-Dope Video. I see he tried to do the mini-movie thing.  Didn't see what "Panty Wetter" had to do with what was going on, but it was a cool video.
