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!
Jay-Z, Rihanna and Kanye West storm NBC’s “The Jay Leno Show” on Monday and shuts it down. The threesome performed “Run This Town” on the show’s premiere. Check out their performance below.
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.
Run This Town LISTEN
Jay-Z first killed Auto-Tune and now he’s ready to assault the Billboard charts with “Run This Town,” featuring two of the artists he helped bring to fame, Kanye West and Rihanna. The track is the second single off The Blueprint 3, due September 11 on his new home at Atlantic Records.
I’m loving Jay’s verses, Rihanna kills the hook and Kanye’s verse is killer. It’s gone be a long, hot summer and this one is guaranteed to make it hotter. Definitely can’t wait for BP3!!
This is the final version of the video from Kanye starring Rihanna. Check the previous unedited version here.
I don’t think Kanye’s even officially released this video yet but folks is on it…including me. It features Rihanna and Rihanna and Rihanna but I ain’t hating though, seems like she’s doing the damn thang nowadays. I still don’t know how I feel about the song though but the video is different. Check it out while you can they pulling this damn video down from every site I know.
Update: Kanye says this on his blog…
It hurts me to see the old and very wrong version of the Paranoid video
get leaked all over the net while I was on an 11hr flight and couldn’t do anything about it. It’s just frustrating when this stuff happens because I really care about the product and since videos never get played any way you might as well tweak them and make them as special as possible. The version that got leaked from the camera phone last week is at least a little closer to the final product. Thank you everybody for your support but that video was not up to my standards.
I ran across this video on YouTube and thought I’d post it and give my two cents since er’body got something to say about the whole Chris Brown and Rihanna fiasco.
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_vagSVmx8E]
After watching this video and hearing T-Pain say that Chris Brown thought that the lyrics “My shawty chunky chunky, she thick thick/and she got thighs and more thighs and booty for me” would be to devastating to his image, did he think that physical and verbal abuse would do any better. I mean its one thing to admire your woman’s body but to hit her and destroy that you gotta be on some other shit. I was gone keep my piece about this whole situation but to find out what and how he did what he did, he really has lost his damn mind and a whole bunch of fans along with it. All I can say is “HE GETS IT!” and that ain’t a good thing.
Rihanna ft. Chris Brown – Bad Girl (Produced by Polow Da Don)LISTEN
I’m really not all that into Rihanna and all but this song is real cool. Polow got a hit on his hands with this one.
Teairra Mari – Holla LISTEN
Her songs are leaking left and right and I think this one might make the cut. Its a decent song even though she still sounds like any other R&B chick.
Day 26 – So Good (Produced by B. Cox) LISTEN
These boy bands nowadays are really doing something for me. I can’t get enough of Brutha, Nephu, One Chance and whomever else will put out a decent track er’y once in awhile. Seems like they’re stuck on productions from B. Cox but whatever works.

Here’s T.I.’s video for Live Your Life featuring Rihanna. The song in itself is something that needed to be said and the video adds a little vision to that message.
I really love T.I. for the fact that he’s just not any other rapper talking about the same old shit in everyone of his songs. He really has a message and something to say. Hopefully, after his time in jail we can see a different, more humble person, even though he displays that now and hopefully his music will reflect such change. LUH U T.I.P.!!!
