He’s a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll and a little RnB, but he blew up on the Hip Hop scene with bold lyrics never heard of in RnB, but if you are a student of all music, you will hear a little of Maxwell, Drake, Prince, Lenny Kravitz, Bob Dylan, Music Soulchild, Robin Thicke and it’s all good. Trust me on this one. This Frank Ocean is going places.
The scenario is J Cole shouted out a supposed love affair with Vanessa Simmons , on the track, Purple Rain. Both are said to have attended the same college. His lyrics elude to the co- owner of the shoe line, Pastries’s giving favors for ‘weed.’
It’s a pretty graphic diss being that Angela is a daughter of a preacher, Rev Run, as J Cole indicates in the song without mentioning Angela Simmons name at all. The big issue is that Diggy Simmons, whose new album “Unexpected Arrival” only sold 20,000 copies on day one, heard J Cole’s track and retaliated with a diss track of his own defending his sister and owning up to his own manhood with his first official beef on the Hip Hop radar.
Like he doesn’t already have frenimies since his feud with Drake. Now Diggy is exercising his right to show off his fans and let it be known his debut week may not all that’s to him. Thus far, the album is doable, but of course there is room for improvement. Check out his latest video….

Nicki MInaj “tidday’s popped out on National Tv again this time on American Idol as if the artist’s wardrobe crew didn’t know a halter top with no “mesh” material support would not result in a malfunction, and much worse than Janet Jackson’s malfunction during a Superbowl game that resulted in the artist being fined and banned from ever performing for sports organization. Several viewers of American Idol already tweeted that her performance was a disgrace as Nicki MInaj tried to dance backwards to the audience realizing that she was exposed, but not after bouncing uncontrollably until her girlfriends popped out again. No laughing matter, the artist did try to hold her girlfriends in and is becoming a regular flasher on tv.

Many clueless kids are singing “Rack City” by new artist, Tyga with album, “Careless World,” due last April just arriving sometime this season. The Compton rapper made a name for himself with the YMCMB conglomeration which helped Nicki Minaj solidify two hit songs, “BedRock” and “Roger That” with his contributing vocals, but it was his collaboration with Chris Brown on their Fan of a Fan mixtape that gained him a Grammy nomination for their duet, “DEUCES…..”
If his voice doesn’t gravitate you his lyrics will. Ryan McDaniel is virtually an unknown, non viral superstar sure to break out of the box on purpose rather than by accident because his sound has got that alluring crossover soundtrack feel of a movie awaiting to be made.

Let me listen to some more of this guy before I decide he’s going to be as big as Usher or decide for yourself. Watch a video…
Lights, camera, action, Chad Ochocinco and Evelyn Lozada cover Urban InK Magazine. At first glance, I expected a photo shoot with two egos against Luda’s MVP Hip Hop song, but as it turns out the couple was very humble. Ochocinco admitted he does push ups to make him look more pumped up for these photo shoots.
Singer Mya attends the North Shore Animal League America pre-race rally & adoption event at The Algonquin Hotel on November 5, 2011 in New York City. The singer will be participating in Team Animal League in the ING NYC Marathon 2011 on Sunday, November 6th, 2011. The artist has an album with Manhattan Records entitled, KISS, Keep it Sexy and Simple. We haven’t heard any radio airplay of Mya’s music, but here is a new track off her album called, EVOLVE which may change Dj’s mind. Mya’s voice sounds stronger and she;s showing more confident vocals on this album. I didn’t care for her self released overly DJ dubbed mix tape which I know paid the bills. This KISS album is much more quality produced. Mya is “Bringing the Heat.” Something like a new Genesis for the artist whom I always said was right there with Beyonce,’ but may have been going through some self doubt issues.
This rapper with no commercial fame may very well have dethroned Busta Rhymes as the fastest rapper on earth! What do you think?

When I saw Beyonce’s ‘Countdown’ Preview Video , I was automatically reminded of, Audrey Hepburn, one of the greatest actresses in film and theater whose signature look comprised a classic pair of leggings, known as jeggings today and high black turtleneck collar with ballet flats and bobby socks, along with the high bangs and up do. The look shows how simple, yet beautiful one can look with a natural look minus hair and accessories which is what I believe Beyonce’ was going for as an expected mother.
The countdown verse itself was reminiscent of Take 6, one of the leading gospel groups of the 90′s. You probably have heard their classic, Seven Steps to Heaven song with musical accompaniment and/or a capella. But- what I found most fascinating was how Beyonce’ channeled, Rosas Danst Rosas, one of the greatest dance choreographers of all time from Europe who I became aware of as a dance student of Vicki Scheer, one of the leading American choreographers of all time.
Before anyone accuses Beyonce’ of stealing or borrowing choreography from a dance choreographer from YOUTUBE, understand that a leotard with black tights, 1/2 sweat top and a chiffon dance dress with legwarmers is standard gear. What is she going to have her back up dancers in a straight line. They are supposed to be aligned side by side for synchronization of dance movement. Furthermore, the sweatshirt falls off your shoulders no matter how many times you reposition it, so it is apparent Beyonce’ included it in the video to add sex appeal. And all women flip their hair to the front, back and sides because that’s what girls naturally do.
Even if Beyonce’ is doing the same moves in the same order with the same ballet frocks on there is nothing original about the last minute of Beyonce’s countdown video, just Beyonce’ as she began, an around the way Texas girl with big dreams alongside her original Destiny’s Child members all trying to make it and she did it. What is amazing is how much she does here very pregnant for her fans. Beyonce’s work ethic never stops. I just wonder if it was her idea to fall on the ground or some video director, because that director needs her azz beat.
T. I. says he is going to communicate with those people who stayed down with him when he was in jail on Twitter. He refers to his fans from both albums and Paper Trails as “Bank heads.” He is prepared to adopt his style to whatever is hot and you can hear that he clearly channels Drake. What’s amazing is his patience with his child who is rolling all over the chair while he is trying to complete his first interview since leaving the half way house. A lot of people threw shade on T.I. who gets out of prison just in time for the Hip Hop Awards and word has it that he went back to his foundation music as represented in his new song, I’m Flexin which sounds major. He also, mentions that he has a new documentary coming to tv and fictional story, Power & Beauty.
Mary J. Blige entertained the crowd at Paper Magazine 2011 Nightlife Awards at Hiro Ballroom at The Maritime Hotel on September 27, 2011 in New York City for what goers are saying was one of her best performances of her career.
Luther Vandross
Marvin Gaye
The greatest black male singers of all time are undeniably Marvin Gaye, Nat King Cole, Ray Charles, Michael Jackson and Luther Vandross, who made an impact in music listeners lives around the globe. Who could deny Marvin Gaye’s soulful sex appeal, Nat King Cole’s elegant and timeless swagger before the word was invented, Ray Charles raspy and gravitating aura that captivated your heart with pride to live in America like no other artist of any era, Luther Vandrosss mastery of the ballad and vocal flair that gave you goosebumps and of course, Michael Jackson’s timeless energy and lyrical abilities that defined the definition of singing talent for the duration of his entire life.
Nat King Cole
All of these artists had a certain uniqueness to them as did James Brown, Isaac Hayes, Sam Cooke, Elvis Presley ( Who I will say again was a black man) and of course, Stevie Wonder to Smokey Robinson still living and making music, but with all respect my TOP 5 are and always will be Marvin Gaye, Nat King Cole, Ray Charles, Michael Jackson and Luther Vandross, but don’t try to play any of their music to win over a hot chick. It won’t work. Women around the world only enjoy listening to these crooners (RIP) while cleaning, on the commute or while relaxing at the beach. Sorry guys.
Michael Jackson
Ray Charles
Be advised, the actions of one court in Georgia to kill Troy Davis, an innocent man via death penalty this past week cannot ruin the morale and sentiment of people for this state with embedded history. A lot of people have been flocking to Georgia and so this is what a few do to keep people out, especially in Savannah. Georgia is still a great song.
Rascal Flatts – Easy ft. Natasha Bedingfield is our ISH. Everyone loves this song. This si the song hook by Natasha Bendingfield you hear the badd #zz white chicks in the mall singing. We are guilty too of singing the hook in the mirror too while window shopping. Easy is just a good break song and cuts to the chase and shows you have moved on. Sing the hell out of it in front of your ex and sing it loud! In my opinion this is the kind of music Justin Bieber should be singing. I mean, why settle for a million when you can make a billion?
Warning! Explicit lyrics that have us as confused as you.
1. Have a bitter Twitter fight with Chris Brown. This is a must. Definitely antagonize the fellows a few days before release. CB is very popular we hear.
2. Sit on a cross on your album cover like you are God,better yet the new King of Hip Hop.
3. Have a celebrity romance with someone popular even if you don’t like them and release the video footage.
4. Recruit teenagers from former school in Fayetteville, North Carolina to upset school officials and cause controversy in hometown, plus more sales.
5. Share your favorite top Hip Hop Artists of all time which will catch the eyes of respect from their millions of fans.
And some bonus advice, put out at least one song that doesn’t make any sense with a Caribbean beat in the background with a hook about ho@s. Good luck J. Cole.
Charlie Sheen was crucified by journalist, Pat Collins, post Emmys on Fox 5 for what looked like a devastating blow to his popularity fan meter up by 4 million plus twitter followers this past summer, and thanks to him joining the social network upon quitting the Two and Half Men show. Since then he has been replaced by Ashton Kutcher and is expected to be killed off the show.
Apparently, he was suffering substance and alcohol abuse and was let go by the show accordingly. As a result, Charlie Sheen went on an amicable rampage via Twitter that resulted in #WINNING related hashtags that literally went viral in days.
Pat Collins was unsympathizing to the point she mentioned that his emphatic well wishes to the new cast during an Emmys appearance was insincere. For damage control, Charlie Sheen was literally forced to go on Wendy’s Show which received him favorably since both, Charlie Sheen and Wendy Williams have admitted to substance abuse, but were able to overcome all. Not all parents tuning in like when Wendy Williams tends to glorify this fact, but millions are glad she like Charlie Sheen were given another chance. Charlie didn’t look like he was under the influence at all and Wendy even complimented him and he complimented her hair.
Charlie Sheen was received favorably on the Wendy Show for entire interview and participated in Wendy’s Wheel of Winning Game without any objection. He spun the wheel to only land on the word WINNING. Wendy Williams gave him a Charlie Sheen Halloween mask as a gift. It is the most requested Halloween outfit thus far of the year.
He then finished some of his own lines in movies, but when he landed on Goddesses he had to answer which women were not one of his Goddesses. He almost had to think about this question eluding to rumors he has slept with 5000 + women which he denies as mathematically impossible. One thing Charlie Sheen was able to clear up was that he never shot Kelly Preston, John Travolta’s mother. Charlie says she reached for a gun and it accidentally went off, but he wasn’t even there. It’s been a lie all these years. He will be roasted on Comedy Central tonight by friends. He also, plays a therapist in about a year on new show called, Anger Management.
