F.A.B.O...

Yessir. Mr. Jackson is back with his upcoming album Loso's Way (Not feeling the title at all).

Anyway, he has two videos out (and I'm sure most people who are die-hard fans won't know because radio is shafting him this time around) titled "Throw It in The Bag" ft. The-Dream and "It's My Time" ft. Jeremih.

'Throw it In the Bag' is a certified club banger, and it's just a simple, fun song. Plus Claudia Jordan is the leading lady, and she's one badd chick so I like it even more.



'It's My Time' is not a super banger, but it's a passable single. Jeremih adds nothing to the song. Overall, it's decent, but the video isn't horrible. I'm hoping Fabo comes harder on the rest of the album.

Change Clothes



From Huffer Summer 09 line



"Bayside" from Stamp'd Summer 09 collection

Random Mashup..Old, New, and Unknown..

Wale ft. Lady Gaga "Chillin"



I just rep DC and PG hard because of this. And ONLY this. The dude is one of the best new rappers. And there's no autotune. Thank you.

I'm glad he's getting major label shine, because his work on the underground/local scene is fire.

I'm mad I'm just getting around to posting the video.

Mary J. Blige ft. Drake "The One"



Yea. It's hot. It's weird though that Mary and Drake are collabing (not a bad thing), HOWEVER the weirdest part is that she's using autotune. It could be a lot worse, but I mean it just makes her seem even more screechy to me. And I like Mary. Oh well. By the way, it's the rumored first single off of her upcoming album.

PS: What do you write about thought after being known as the heartbreak queen then making several albums about finding love?

Drake ft. Trey Songz "She Just Wanna Dance"



This is old as hell (since around january), but it's classic Drizzy, and Trey makes it a certified banger. Still worth a rotation on the ipod. From "The Drought is Over" (Friends With Money) Mixtape.

And, another old track resurfacing: "Right to Left" by Drake and Tanya Morgan. This is a track from the Comeback Season era, and its said that Drake's rhymes are reused in the song. I don't care. Two of my favorite hip-hop artists on one track is beyond dope.



I HATE Flo-rida. He's a sellout, horrible/whack lyricist, and one of the main reasons mainstream rap is garbage. However his song "Sweat" with Chris Brown is only being mentioned because Chris' part is smooth. I wish ANY other rapper was on this

Winter, Winter, Winter...

I love fall/winter for many reasons. Snow, snow days, heated seats, and new clothes. Y-3, the high fashion line by Adidas for the ballers has begun to release snapshots of shoes from the fall/winter 09 collection. You know I'm a fan for them. I geek for Yamamoto. He stays killing the creative game with his on point designs and color schemes.

Something New...




The realm of music groups is a fickle one. Danity Kane? Done. Da Band? Yea...no more. Day 26? Who knows? But they don't look to have a promising future. The point is that pop trios, quintets, and so forth are hard to maintain because of egos, cheesiness, and the fact that no one over a certain age should care about these groups. (In theory, of course.)

Now, let's meet Electrik Red, the newest group vying for the title of the 'it' girl group of the moment. Honestly I was (and still am) a little skeptical, but after listening to a few of their tracks, I'm impressed. None of them have voices to write home about, but I like the breathy, sex-filled Janet vibe they give off, and they're hot girls, so I mean that's an even BIGGER plus. But the icing on the cake is that their album is a product of one of the golden guys in music now, (Terius Nash aka The-Dream)so the songs automatically have dope production. Can pretty girls survive on being pretty girls, or can they actually stick around and create a brand for themselves that people want to support?

Have a listen for yourself.
Their new album "How to Be a Lady Vol. 1" is in stores NOW.
