Video: Common Talks Drake Beef



Though I will not entertain the Common and Drake beef simply because I admire both of their talents as artists in the world of Hip Hop, I decided to post this to let people hear Common's opinion. However, I would hate to have to choose someones side in all the rift raft because Common is essentially part of Kanye's G.O.O.D music team and as we all know Kanye has has my heart for the longest...BUT I am smitten with Drake as I have stated as of late. For the most part I believe the two gentlemen should get there sh*t together and stop the non-sense. The jabs, disses, and beef is not worth it.

Tonight (Best You Ever Had) Feat. Ludacris


John Legend is back with a feature from Luda. Sounding a little different while still having that suave John Legend demeanor in his new single Tonight (Best You Ever Had). The track definitely has the beautiful Legend vocals with Ludacris bringing his best to the track. There is no release date for Mr. Legend's upcoming album but I am sure it will be just as beautiful as previous ones from this beau.

Theophilus London - Glamour Magazine Man Candy: 6 of the Hottest Guys of 2012

I first heard of Theophilus London through my best friend a few years back when she played Theophilus' song "Always Love You", and since that very moment I have been hooked. He has a musical talent that is all his own and a style that nobody can ever say is there's, but Theophilus London himself. This month Theophilus is apart of Glamour Magazines Man Candy: 6 of the Hottest Guys of 2012.
SN: Go listen to Century Girl in the first verse my name is in there but I am sure it has nothing to do with me but I love it anyways <3!
" Wake up, can you paint my canvas? Hot chick, so you name is Candice?"

Theophilus London: the Hippest Rapper

Twenty-three-year-old Theophilus London's style inspiration? His dad. "He had all the great leather jackets and cool suits," he says.



So, is he your type? If you don't know him already from his hit single "I Stand Alone," just listen to the first track off London's album Timez Are Weird These Days and you won't be able to get his name out of your head: "Last name London, first name Theophilus," the 23-year-old raps. This Trinidad-born artist was raised in Brooklyn and is known for his varied musical influences—old-school rap, classic rock, soul—as well as his quirky style, a mix of high fashion and hip-hop. As for dating, London has a few definite first-date Don'ts: "Don't bring up death or any ex-boyfriends." Other than that, he's keeping his love life close to the vest: "I don't want to give away too many of my secrets," he quips. (courtesy of Glamour.com)



Video: Lauryn Hill - I Just Want You Around (MTV Unplugged No. 2.0)


Lauryn Hill's MTV Unplugged was by far my absolute favorite MTV Unplugged, that I have seen to date. Her performance of "I Just Want You Around" was amazingly beautiful and one of my favorites during her unplugged special. The entire Unplugged performance is available on a 2-disc album set and I have had a copy since it first dropped. She is definitely a beautiful soul that you can listen to over and over again with her incredible raw artistry.

The first time Mrs. Right, Mary J Blige shot the video for Mr. Wrong Drake was not apart of it due to schedule conflicts. However, there was a second video shoot and thank goodness because the addition of Drake made the Mr. Wrong video oh so right. Though it is Mary's song Drake's verse is so much apart of the song that it would not be right without him.

Oregon's Bowl Gear 2012

Tis' the season of bowl games where the winning teams in college football get to enjoy a final game to end the years football season. The bowl games give players a chance to play for a bigger title and it also entails some major perks for the players and coaches. The teams receive great prizes and get to travel to different places for the big game. One of the greatest perks is the bowl gear and this year even though the bowl games aren't over, it is safe to safe the Best Bowl Gear Award goes to Oregon. Nike always treats Oregon extremely well when it comes to uniforms and their gear, but this year they gave them some of the best bowl gear I have ever seen.
