Video: Hope For Haiti Performances

Beyoncé dedicated her performance of “Halo” to the people of Haiti at the “Hope for Haiti Now” telethon in London. As always, she did her thing…vocals were very nice!

Jay-Z, Rihanna, and U2’s Bono and The Edge debuted their charity single “Stranded (Haiti Mon Amour) – Version 1.0” live in London during the telethon. The Swizz Beatz production is now available to download on iTunes with all proceeds benefitting Haiti relief efforts. I really like the song!

Video: Drake joins Jay-Z on stage in Toronto

Two of my favorite MCs hit the stage during Jay’s show at the Air Canada Centre on Halloween. Jay-Z played hypeman to Drake introducing him to his hometown crowd. I could imagine how Drake felt…for one, I know it always feels good to be home but to have one of your favorite MCs rapping (let alone knowing it word for word) to your song, that must’ve been a great feeling. Check out these two dope boys below…

Timbaland feat. Keri Hilson and Jay-Z – Rumors LISTEN

Looks like Timbo and his camp loves the steady stream of leaks (no pun intended)…from Jay-Z’s BP3 tracks and now to his Shock Value 2, due out November 23.  I guess he wants the people’s opinion before the CD drops. I personally like everything Tim and his camp has leaked and this song is no exception.

Off That feat. Drake LISTEN

Alot of people have been saying that Jay is too commercial this time around and needs to sit down. I believe he still got it..which he does…he can whatever the hell he wants because he does it oh so well. I like the both of the tracks..I wish Drake could’ve had a verse on the song but I’m sure Jay didn’t want any competition on his own song.

New Video: Jay-Z feat. Rihanna and Kanye West – Run This Town

Check out the highly anticipated new video from Jay-Z, Rihanna, and Kanye West entitled “Run This Town“. The song is the 2nd single from Jay’s newest album, The Blueprint III, in stores on September 11th.

This is like the Dream Team on one track…and the video is fresh and something different. I’m not really a Rihanna fan but her swag is mean in this video. I like the whole dark theme they got going on. Come to think about Jay-Z was the one who really introduced both Rihanna and Kanye to the game, which makes the song make even more sense.
