New Video: Mary J. Blige "Stronger"

Friday, August 21 2009 6:02 PM EST | Posted by: YN | Posted in: R&B

I went in on this song on Twitter the first time I heard it. And, let’s just say, I’m still not a fan of it. But it does appear to work better in the context of LeBron James’ upcoming documentary, More Than A Game. But if I was MJB, I’d re-name my album and leave this song here. It’s not too late, Kendu.

Ron Browz's Ether Boy Blues

Why won’t we let Ether Boy be great?

Guess somebody else is mad at Sylvia. Remember Ron Browz? You know, the Auto-Tune dude who got his song juxed by Jim Jones? Well here he is with no vocal effects breakin’ down the beef with Jomo (Is it really over Luda’s verse?) and airin’ out his frustration with his album still sittin’ on the shelf. That’s right, I just watched this terrible video. Give me 40 dollars!

“If you get really good at DJ Hero, run to the music store and buy a turntable and a mixer because you definitely may have a career.”

Miss Info broke this about a month ago, but one of the coolest things about the upcoming “DJ Hero” video game is the inclusion of Jazzy Jeff. With all due respect to Kid Capri, Jeff is my favorite behind the two turntables. And I can’t front, the game looks interesting and Mr. Townes is a helluva salesman. I’m in.

“Nah she good, boss. She good. She good. It’s all love up in here.”

Things got a lil crazy at the Mos Def tour stop in Houston last night. Some random woman bumrushed Jay’s show on some Morganna The Kissing Bandit shit. Pretty funny and bizarre. Still I’m waiting for some footage of this:

Press release was sent out today to announce the upcoming release of Memph’s 5th allbum. His first post-Roc full-length is due Nov 24th on his own Get Low imprint and distributed by a Boston-based company called Mass Appeal. No worries Hov is still involved, exec-producing the album and there will be a major label level-assistance on the feature tip from Pharrell, Rick Ross, Just Blaze, etc. Save your weed carrier jokes. I fucks wit Mr. Cox. [Pause?] Ha!

Good luck, Malik.
