Album Reviews

VIDEO: Bei Maejor Tells ‘A Broken Love Story’

Bei Maejor recently dropped the totally free “Upside Down” album (download here) and I must say… it’s DAMN GOOD! Seriously, a lot of the stuff from this album has stayed in my rotation because it’s just good music and the homie knows how to tell a good story. Which brings us to this video for ‘She Was (A Broken Love Story)’.

VIDEO: B.o.B.’s ‘MAGIC’ Is A Serious Head Trip

Watching this video, I immediately flashed back to this interview I did with him a few months back and it all made sense. Jokes people. Seriously, Rivers Cuomo of Weezer joins forces with Mr. Simmons aka B.o.B. aka Bobby Ray on this ‘Magic’ adventure for a video that’s entertaining and just cool.

VIDEO: Sean Garrett Proves It’s Never Too Late for ‘Summer Love’

Summer may be ending but Sean Garrett plans to keep the heat going a while longer with the release of his new clip ‘Summer Love’ from his newly released mixtape entitled “The Inkwell”. I haven’t heard the entire mixtape yet, but everything I’ve heard is pretty decent so far. Make sure you check it out…

VIDEO: Turntables and Tracksuits Dominate in Big Boi’s ‘You Ain’t No DJ’

The style of this video pays homage to the era when DJ’s reigned supreme!! There’s a lot of late 80′s fashion prevalent in Big Boi’s visual for ‘You Ain’t No DJ’ which also features up-and-coming Alabama rapper Yelawolf. The song is definitely one of my favorites from Big Boi’s Sir Lucious Leftfoot album.

Not Savvy But Stupid: T.I. And Tiny Arrested On Drug Possession

It’s an age of stupidity that we live in. T.I. just beat a 30-year sentence and got off with less than a year in prison. Months later, he gets caught up on a weed charge… A WEED CHARGE?? Here’s what I think of THE KANG and this foolishness…

VIDEO: Cee-Lo Green Travels Back In Time To Say ‘Fuck You’

This is by far the most entertaining video I’ve watched in a LONG time!!! What I love about Cee-Lo and his new single ‘Fuck You’ is that it’s something we all can relate to – don’t front, you’ve been there too. In this video, Cee-Lo chronicles his evolution from boy-mistreated to The Lady Killer.

NEW MUSIC: Wiz Khalifa – Black and Yellow

I hate to use this analogy but Wiz Khalifa goes HARD IN THE PAINT on ‘Black and Yellow’, the first single released under his newly inked deal (no pun intended) with Atlantic Records. Wiz has been on the circuit longer than your favorite new rapper so show Taylor Gang some respect and bang this joint!

VIDEO: John Legend & The Roots – I Can’t Write Left-Handed

John Legend is a brother to the blues on this cover of ‘I Can’t Write Left-Handed’ originally done by Bill Withers. This cover is just as sincere and spot-on as the ’73 original. The video captures the in-studio performance of the track with some AWESOME instrumentation from The Roots.

VIDEO: Donell Jones – Love Like This

THIS!! This is R&B and Donell Jones KNOWS how to bring it! Check out the video for ‘Love Like This’, the lead single from his forthcoming album “Lyrics” which drops September 28. The video is fairly simple but the song is a great offering of Donell’s CLASSIC sound

Album Review: Lyfe Jennings – I Still Believe

After a label switch and a bit of controversy in his personal life, Lyfe Jennings releases “I Still Believe”, his fourth studio album (Jesus Swings). This album includes the singles ‘Statistics’, ‘Busy’ and ‘If Tomorrow Never Comes’. Check out the full review…
