Chris Brown – Turn Up the Music (Remix) Feat. Rihanna

Chris turned up the music adding Rihanna to the remix of his song Turn Up the Music....the colabo has definitely led to speculation of the twosome reuniting but......let's just let it be about the music.

Rihanna 2012 Grammy Awards Performance



Even though I just posted her BRIT Awards performance, I had to post her Grammy performance too. You can decide which one you like best. The beginning of this performance where Ri is singing over the piano is amazing, the feeling you get when you hear it is truly what this song is all about. Only if they had the beginning narration from the video at the beinning of the prformance, just would have been the cherries on top of the banana split.

Kanye West - Through The Wire (feat. John Legend, Miri Ben-Ari) Live


"Through The Wire" what does it mean to you? I know exactly what it means to me, it is one of the reasons why I fell in love with Kanye and it remains one of the reason's why the world became a fan. The rush that I still get when I hear the beat drop to this song is indescribable for numerous reasons and I still get hype riding down the road listening to Kanye's album The College Dropout. There is something about watching Kanye's journey from then to now that makes us continue to fall in love with Hip Hop,whether it be the growth that he has had as an artist or the way music in general has transformed. For me this performance is one that I could watch over and over again and it never gets old for the simple fact that Kanye brings it to life. John Legend singing the hook while that violin plays on top of that beat as Kanye raps one of the greatest stories of his life, its just one of those moments you have to fall in love with. It's an oldie but a goodie. <3

Video: Rihanna Performs ‘We Found Love’ at the BRIT Awards 2012



"We Found Love" never gets old and this time just like the first time it is simply beautiful. Whether it be the BRIT Awards or her Grammy performance she cannot go wrong when perfoming this song. The bad biotch herself lights fire to finding love in a hopeless place with this song and leaves us wanting more.
