I need to start doing video treatments....

**S-I-G-H**

Another HAWT song... another effin retarded video. With all the money that Diddy has been raping from his artists, are you telling me THIS VIDEO was the best he could do???

I'm so sorry Day 26.... I love you guys but this crap ruins the song for me.

- The video chicks were pointless
- The backlight-lazer show was stupid
- The random close ups were hurtin
- Robert with guitar... predictable
Over all analysis: S-H-I-T ASS VIDEO!!

..... the black & white parts weren't ALL bad tho. You guys should've kept that as your theme and ran with it. Shoot your director!


See the crap for yourselves...

Day 26 - Stadium Music

Flava in ya EYE!

For the longest time, I've been wondering where the 'On' and 'Off' rings Keri Hilson wore in her "Turning Me On" video came from & I'm sooooooooooo happy I can finally put the dopeness to the face! Everywhere I look now, Melody Ehsani is gettin mad love and praise from fashion lovers all over the globe.... it's CRAZY! Her accessories are dope and her shoes are unique.... I'm excited to see what her new collection is gonna look like!


Here are some of her dope piece:

& here's a lil' Vimby video.... enjoy. I know I did!

VIMBY - Melody Ehsani

Ok... Settle down Sasha!

This raunchy, nearly naked, stripper-light dancing is getting pretty old now... Although I kind of dig the energy of "Sasha Fierce", she really needs to toned it down a bit. It's starting to make me uncomfortable....

[The black jacket she's wearing in the second verse needs to be in my closet NOW!!]

Beyonce - Ego

Amazing!

Another amazing voice that brings me to tears. This lady is BLESSED!!

Jazmine Sullivan covering Seal's "Kiss From A Rose"

More from the creative mind of Mr. Carrington

LOL. A parody song/ video to Kanye's "Heartless"

Blake Carrington Feat. O' Sound- "Give Me My Yeezy's"

Blake Carrington to di worrrrrlllllldddd!!

I love this dude's energy!! Everytime I see him, he's always grinning & I can't help but grin too. Do your thing homie.......... TORONTO STAND UP!!

No seriously.... I think he's dope...

I'm not a groupie in any way, shape or form.... but the more this dude is pushed in my line of vision, the more I end up taking in his music.

The more I hear... The more I DIG!

Sorry I missed it...

Here's a video of Drake's performance in Toronto....

It's pretty descent but I gotta admit, when he started grindin to the R. Kelly tracks, it made me nervous..... YIKES!

Drake - So Far Gone Tour (Live in Toronto) [Full Show] from Karla Moy on Vimeo.

& the Drake love continues....

LOL... I found this on YouTube. Singer/ songwriter Leah Labelle [my youtuber feature #2] and her home girl Honey Dip bumppin to "Best I Ever Had" in the whip!! Too cute.

The song is hot.... All across the globe!

Tee Dot Love

Finally, a video for "I'm Still Fly".... Not a huge fan of the video but the cartoon intro is mad creative.

Page Feat. Drake - I'm Still Fly

"....... You got dough and changed"

I'm not as big a fan of Keyshia Cole as I use to be. She's changed A LOT since her last album and to me, not in a good way. I'm also not the biggest fan of her writing skills... [holla at me if you need a writer!].

Monica on the other hand, I will ALWAYS be her #1 fan!! Amazing voice, she can write and although I've heard horror stories about her attitude and personality, to me, she's very consistant!

This song is alright & they both look amazing in the video.... plus any track Monica's singing on, I'M ON IT!!

Keyshia Cole Feat. Monica - Trust

I actually teared up!

If you still think Teyana Taylor can't really sing after watching this.... then you're dead inside. PERIOD! I knew she had a voice on her but I didn't know she could saaaaaaannnngggg! I love her low, husky/ raspy voice and her vibrato is CLEAN!!

......I'm a fan all over again!

Teyana Taylor - Eye is on the Sparrow [Acapella]

FINALLY!!!

The video doesn't exactly follow the song but I still love it!! She looks amazing in the video and the TEE DOT SCREW-FACE at the end kills me!! Go 'head Mrs. Fiona, I see you!

Melanie Fiona - Give it to me Right

I just wanna be successful...

I loooooooooooove this song!!

ATL performance: Drake feat Trey Songz -- "Successful"

My man's back!

Oh Maxwell.... I sooooooooooooooo love you!!!

I missed you boo!

Maxwell - Pretty Wings

WOW!!

This is 12 yr old Shaheen Jafargholi from Britain's Got Talent... DAAAAAAAAAMMNN!!

Speaking of amazing voices...

I just realized that the "Pearls" song that I love by India Arie was in fact, originally by Sade...

*SIGH* When this woman steps up to the mic, all you can do is shut up & listen!! Power vocals, beautiful tone and the message is this song..... This is MUSIQ!!


Take in this live performance:



& here's another one of my favorite songs from Sade...
King of Sorrow:

Dope Performance

I got this from Estelle's blog
[ http://www.theadventuresofbeingfamous.com ]. Dope!!

Beautiful, beautiful INDIA!

This woman has one of the most amazing voices I have EVER heard in my life!! To this day, I still bump to her 'Voyage to India' cd! I must admit, she's a bit of a weirdo but oh well, her voice literally brings tears to my eyes!

Here's a live performance of "Pearls" from the Tavis Smiley show:

GreenBench to di wooorrrrlllllllddddd!!!

Big shouts out to my FB friend Chris Denning for putting me on to these dudes... This shit is toooooooooooo HILARIOUS, OMG!!!

Just Friend's parody, 'Bitch, you IS my girlfriend!'


LMFAO! Duval, I heart you!

I heart Karina Pasian

Dope, dope, DOPE!!

Here's a few of my fav vids from her:

Her version of "Halo"



"Ribbons in the Sky"



"My First Love"



"Slow Motion"



Go 'head mama!! I DIG!

The CW ain't shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttttttttt!!

For those who have been living under a rock and not paying attention, the CW network is trying to cancel one of my favorite shows... 'The Game'!! They already had the nerve to cancel 'Girlfriends' without the decency of airing a series finale & now they want to do the same with this show! UGH!!

Apparantly, CW wants to get rid of all their half-hour comedies ('Everyone Hates Chris' is on the chopping block too) so, what the creator of 'The Game', Mara Brock Akil, is proposing is that the show be turned into a full hour dramedy... I dunno how well that will work out but, I'm keeping my finger crossed.... I LOVE THIS SHOW!

.... I won't watch another CW show if they cancel it!

Check out TheGameFanatic on YouTube for full episodes... ALL OF THEM!!!

YouTuber #2

This is Miss Leah Labelle and homegirl's got some vocals!! I accidently came across her YouTube page when I was looking at different people singing Rihanna's 'Take A Bow'. She has that smoking/raspy voice that I love and her vibrato is no joke!! Leah is a former contestant on American Idol [same season as Jennifer Hudson & Fantasia Barrino] and has recently been doing some background work with Keri Hilson. Keep doing your thing mama!!


Here are some of my favorite videos from Leah:
[Beware... she does talk a bit in the beginning of some of her videos, lol]

John Legend - Ordinary People



Beyonce - You Are My Roc [I didn't even know about this song until I saw this video!]



MusiQ Soulchild - Don't Change



Rihanna - Take A Bow



**DOPE** STAMP OF APPROVAL!!!

Congratz Ladies!

Shouts out to Henrietta Toby & Bianca Brown of Patent, on the launch of their online fashion magazine! I dig success and from what I see so far, you guys are on the right track! :D

FOR FRIG SAKES!!!

Message to Diddy: STOP F**KIN UP GOOD SONGS!! THIS TRACK WAS PERFECTLY FINE WITHOUT YOU!

... Wack ass video... *Kiss teet*

... you were unnecessary too Joc!! SMH!

Ginuwine's back!

When I heard he was working on an album, I didn't think it was gonna be anything to be excited about.... I've had a love/hate relationship with Ginuwine for YEARS!! I must say, his new track "Last Chance" is a banger and I'm happy to hear he's been in the studio with RL (from Next)!!


Here's his lastest [with a video cameo by Lisaraye & Tyrese]

Thx Pauleanna, lol...

I ended up watching more Def Jam Poetry vids... Here's some more good ones!
