I had some cringe moments during her performances, but this was not her worst nor her best showing.... It was what it was....I did like the S&M flob mash like concept. She doesn't sound too bad singing that live, although she brought it down a few octaves. I had many cringe moments during "Only Girl in The World" which I always do, and What's My Name was cool. No matter how she performs, you can't deny that the girl has hits, and has no problems with making hits...

New Music: Kelly Rowland ft. R. Kelly, Lil Wayne, Llyod ft. Trey Sogsz/Young Jeezy, Busta Rhymes, Fabolous, and Nicki Minaj.

R. Kelly- R. Kelly is the King of R&B. Although not that great, he easily kilt Jeremih's and The Dream's Versions... I'm just saying....
Lil Wayne-On a totally different page than the BANGER that is 6 foot 7 foot, a solid track. I am surprised it will be a single though....
Llyod-Dope Track. I like it a lot, but it will be interesting to see how it does on radio. It definitely has a Trey Songz vibe to it. Trey and Jeezy did they thing...
Busta Rhymes-Dope Track. Busta is a beast lyrically, and the sample is sick! LL Cool J kinda kilt too...
Fabolous-Decent Track. I like the hard hittin music from fabo.
Nicki Minaj-Decent Track. Definitely sounds like some mixtape ish...Go hard a lil bit though...

New Nicki Minaj Video: Did It On Em'

OK for one of those tour videos...This is the "Internet Version" so I'm not sure if we will see another version of the video or no, but this serves it's purpose I guess...One thing is for sure, Nicki Minaj is unstoppable right now.

Kelly Rowland Motivation Hits #1!!!

Kelly Rowland officially has a #1 hit on her hands. Motivation climbed the Billboard Hip Hop/R&B Chart 2-1 this week, making it her first #1 on the chart as a lead Artist. A proud member of TEAM KELLY I am ecstatic about this news. Now come one with the Live Performances, and second single so we can ensure the album makes it to #1 and Platinum Status. LEGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Beyonce Rehearses 1+1

WOW....That was almost better than the version that aired. No auto-tune, no Pro-tools, just her beautiful voice. What a true artist...
