New Video: Jessie J - Pricetag

Video: Jessie J ft. B.o.B

The talented U.K. singer Jessie J is just simply taking the world by storm. After her huge hit 'Do It Like A Dude' smashed the charts and officially placed her on the map of stardom, she's back with something new. Her new track 'Price Tag' featuring rapper B.o.B. is a more meaningful track compared to her debut. The track talks about money not being everything and it's really cute and sassy. The concept of the video is totally BRILLIANT !! The video directed by Emil Nava has a real kids play vibe about it - which really echo's the innocence of the story she's telling in her self. MY VERDICT... I totally fell in love with this video, it' real sweet, and the track is a killer. I hope it goes #1. Check it out and enjoy :)

LOVE IT !!

Mann: Buzzin' (Remix) ft. 50 Cent

This has to be my track of the week. Though it is so 2010. I see it going places this year !! The catchy track titled 'Buzzin' featuring the man of the moment 50 Cent samples the 1986 track 'I Can't Wait' by Nu Shooz. SO... you know it's got to be good - sampled tracks usually are !! WHY IS IT A TREAT...? It's something to really kick off your weekend. Aren't you glad it's Friday..? Enjoy :)

LADY GAGA FRAGRANCE...

Lady Gaga: Blood & Semen Fragrance

It is alleged that Lady Gaga is to join the long line of celebs including Diddy, JLO, Gwen Stefani, Beyonce and the list could go on; of owning a fragrance. YUP... now that would be a hit as the Grammy Award winning star has a uber load of fans. ONE THING... the fragrance - and I'm not sure if this is a joke or not, is to smell of not going to smell of roses or peaches but blood and semen. ERRRMM... very different and very Gaga indeedy. Not that I'm saying that's what she smells of. Like hell I don't know what she smells like !! If this is true, it sure a tad extravagant and totally of her character. How can we expect anything else from the star..? The fragrance to come is likely to be called 'Monster' and will be available in Spring 2012. I'm sure her 'little monsters' will buy it even if it does smell of blood and semen. MEANWHILE... look out for her upcoming album 'Born This Way' hitting us real soon.

I'M SURE IT WILL SMELL NICE !! "/

Tinie Tempah is sure on a rise !! Surpassing his 2010 stardom with four BRIT award nominations so far this year there's no doubt this year he'll be an even bigger star.

Featuring fellow BRIT nominee Ellie Goulding, 'Wonderman' - another Labrinth produced track that is surely set to take the #1 spot when it is officially released March 7th.

Moment 4 Life Video

Every Barbie must have a fairy tale wedding, it's just protocol and the way of life !! Here Nicki Minaj is having hers, or at least a "royal celebration" as she told MTV News. She enjoys her special moment with fellow rapper Drake, a moment granted by her very own British fairy godmother !! YES... be prepared for her famous English accent, which to me sounds like a mixture of the Queens English and Australian. Well at least it has that entertainment factor !! Directed by Chris Robinson, who's worked with the likes of Alicia Keys, Jay-z and Nas works well with the concept of the song. ANYWAYS... check it out and enjoy her 'Moment 4 Life' :)

CUTE !!

Willow Smith: 21st Century Girl

If there's any young girl that can get the world bopping their heads and cooing how adorable and talented she is, it is Willow Smith. After successfully topping out UK charts and getting the world to whip their hair back and forth, she's back with some more dance moves. The youngster informed her fan base on Facebook about her next single:

"Hey people I am so excited for my next single!! Are you? It's a dance record. I know you love to dance, don't cha'......"

The track titled '21st Century Girl' is totally hip !! The video has been shot, so all we have to do is wait for what she has in store for us this time round. In the meanwhile you can check out the behind the scenes of her next video. Also check out some more photo's from the shoot after the video, when you read more. Enjoy :)

Operation Shutdown: WSHH !!

50 cent Monday, January 24, 2011

R.I.P: World Star Hip Hop

World renowned hip hop blog WSHH, otherwise known as World Star Hip Hop has vanished. YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT... The website was apparently shut down earlier today on the grounds of copyright infringement. For those who don't have a clue about what I'm talking about, WSHH was a portal for 'hip hop' videos. I use the term hip hop lightly, hence the inverted commas - like what is hip hop these days. The site gave us daily updates of hip hop news, videos, mixtapes and everything you can think of. It was also the home of comical videos, and clips of skanky females and males doing their thang, and poppin' their booties !! WHO TO BLAME... 50 Cent:

"I don't know why the people underestimate me. I just shut down WORLDSTAR for future advertising contact thisis50.com suckers lol." He then tweeted in the same hour, "I put worldstar to bed, you don't believe try me I wll shut your shi*t down. Lol."

Talk about being mean !! Well to be fair he's looking out for his artists and of course himself, as they were competition. He also also on a shutting down spree, as he tweeted that he'll be shutting down a couple more sites. This is nothing new as he filed a lawsuit against them back in 2009 for using his picture without his permission...

Sneak Peek: Nicki Minaj - Moments 4 Life

Teaser Vid: Moments 4 Life (ft. Drake)

Nicki Minaj has been on a role this month. She's been shooting the video for 'Fly' with singer and fashionista Rihanna, and now the teaser vid for 'Moments 4 Life' has dropped. You go girl !! The video, featuring Drake seems to have a fairytale theme going on. From what I see it looks like a Cinderella story with her playing both Cinders and the fairy Godmother !! There are some close scenes with her and Drizzy and it seems as though they're a married couple. Remember Drizzy did say on his Thank Me Later album he would like to marry her one day !! Maybe the fairy GodBarbie has granted him that wish in this video. Check it out...

LOOKS VERY INTERESTING !!

Teaser Vid: Clap Clap/Black Friday

Seems like we're having a female rapper day today, so I'm keeping this real short and simple. Check out the trailer for Lil' Kim's latest single 'Clap Clap' featuring IRS. OH BY THE WAY... just in case you was wondering who that girl is standing next to Queen B, she's supposed to be a lookalike of, yup you guessed it Nicki Minaj !! She's apparently supposed to make an appearance in the video as part of the 'Black Friday' diss. Guess we'll have to see when the full video is released. For now check this short clip out...

Nicki Gets Painted

magazines Thursday, January 13, 2011

V Magazine: Nicki Shoot

Recently I posted the Spring 2011 preview cover for V Magazine, with Nicki Minaj, gracing the covers. I chose my words carefully in that post and my words such as 'bold' and 'springful' I must say were perfectly chosen !! WHY SO... the shoot for the spread was most definitely those words, with the addition of tribal - as the rapper gets painted. Not the cliche metalic, or Avatar look, but something a wee bit different. I also said the cover had a sophisticated look as the Barbie look was dropped, but with the tribal like painting and the fashionable clothes, the shoot is fun. See more photo's and peep the alternative cover, when you read more...

LOVING THE LEG PAINT !!

Lil' Kim Claps Back

lil' kim Thursday, January 13, 2011

New Music: Lil' Kim - Clap Clap

Remember when Ja Rule sang 'We gon' clap back'..? Well Queen B aka Lil' Kim is doing just that and believe me, she's on it like sonic !! NOW... I'm sure all of you that are following what I call 'The Barbie Beef' between Queen B and Harujuku Barbie - Nicki Minaj, and have heard Kim's 'Black Friday' diss (KIM WENT IN HARD ON THAT). Well she's back again with something fresh, a grower I'll say. A track decent for some radio play, to keep the buzz going for her upcoming mixtape with The International Rockstars (IRS). WHO..? I'm not entirely sure who IRS is but I'm guessing it's her new crew !! ANYWAY... the track featuring her crew it's simply a comeback hit, her very own big up track/ come back anthem. Overall the track is pretty cool. It's not the super hard stuff she used to give us, and it's not epic like the 'Black Friday' diss. So I'm expecting people to say it's wack and spit all that jazz. The track also acts as an introduction to IRS with some of the members dropping a couple bars on the track. SIMPLY... well at least I'm hoping, as far as Kim's quality CAN go, this track is just the key in the ignition ready to be started. Check it out...

WELCOME BACK QUEEN BEE!!

Gucci 'Ice Cream Face' Mane..?

Boy. Gucci Mane loves ice cream in a cone that much..? I know he has a chain and huge pendant with one, but a big tattoo on your face..? That's a step far !! The rapper who apparently just stepped out from a mental rehab centre, has freshly got a coloured, three scoop ice cream in a cone, with his 'Brrr' phrase inked onto his right cheek. SORRY... likesto be harsh Gucci, but you may need to make a u-turn back to that centre. Well it's his face. All I can say is..BRRR !!

GOOD GOSH GUCCI !!

Jamaican Airport Named After James Bond Author

good news Thursday, January 13, 2011

Jamaica: Ian Flemming Airport

A new international airport has open in St. Mary, Jamaica for private jets and small aircrafts. Previously called Boscobel Aerodrome, the airport is now named after the late Ian Fleming, the author of James Bond who first visited Jamaica in 1942. According to his niece Lucy Fleming,

"He adored Jamaica and found so much inspiration and relaxation here." She adds,"Honestly, I don't think he would have written those (Bond) books without Jamaica."

Fleming's fifth novel, Dr. No that was written in 1958 and turned into a film in 1962 was partially set in Jamaica.

Nicki Covers V

magazines Tuesday, January 11, 2011

Spring Preview: V Magazine

See simple is sexier. Nicki Minaj graces the Sping Preview 2011 issue of V Magazine and she looks lovely. See me, I'm not all wrapped up in this Barbie ~~shit~~ at all. Fair enough it's her game, but when she has simple shoots like this I prefer it. Like I said simple is better. Also the red lippy looks much more sophisticated. Great call on the orange V it's bold like Nicki and very springful !! YES... I know 'springful isn't a word, but hey I'm journalist so I allowed to invent them !! :D

GO NICKI GO !!

Beyonce Swagga Jacking AGAIN !!

Beyonce Goes Red

The red hair seems to be BANG on trend at the moment. I've always loved red, purple and dark blue hair but just because it's in doesn't mean I'm in too !! It seems though that Beyonce feels the need to be in the in crowd right about know, since she's a bit ghost at the moment. So she's gone for the Rihanna look, like totally. Even this photo favours the photo's in the cover sleeve of her recent album LOUD. I though Bey was supposed to be trendy..? RiRi you have officially been SWAGGA JACKED by your boss' wife !!

YAY OR NAY...?

Cher Shock !!

Cher Lloyd Lands In The States

X Factor runner up, Cher Lloyd as you must have heard has been signed by Jay-Z's . The singer/~~rapper~~ has been to RocNation the home to successful artists such as Rihanna and Willow Smith. Over here in the UK the feelings about her are pretty much mixed, as I'd say she's like marmite !! You either love her or hate her. ME..? I'm somewhere in between. I liked her then she just began to grate on me with all the controversey that went on in the most recent X Factor. ANYWAY... Shocked by the turn out of paparazzi there to snap her on her arrival to the states, it looks as if they've welcomed her with openeed arms. Well let's see what becomes of this signing as she's there to meet with the RocNation execs !! She's also added a couple more tattoo's to her collection, taking her ink designs up to five. One of the tattoo's is 'all you have is your soul', the title of a Tracy Chapman song. More photo's when you read more...
