“She blew it out the frame.” Who says white men can’t dance? An excitable Robin Thicke world premieres “Shakin’ It For Daddy,” his song with the YM princess on the Rickey Smiley’s show in the ATL. Hopefully, they’ll shoot a video soon so we can peep some mo’ of Minaj’s animated moves. Props: Rap-Up
“The only millionaire in the city where he born at.” Truthfully: I initially wanted to post this just because something about the artwork tickled me so. But this tune ain’t half bad. Still, the question remains: Will the real Byron of our culture ever return to the Birdman’s coup? Ha! Havin’ too much fun today. Props: YK2 Sidebar: Maybe I just have a soft spot for the title. I can relate and this song‘s great too.
[vodpod id=Groupvideo.3829770&w=425&h=350&fv=] I thought Robyn told Glamour she had never been in love. Sigh. Here’s a sneak peak of the Sawyer interview. It’s almost showtime! Props: Global Grind

Sway hit VA for a sit-down that airs this Friday at 6 p.m. EST. Here’s a sample from their discussion. “My thoughts [when I look back on it now] is like, why did it happen?” he told MTV News correspondent Sway during an hour-long, one-on-one interview that took place in Brown’s native Virginia. “Like, what was I thinking? What is wrong with you? That’s what I’m thinking with […]
Let’s take a sec and think back. Cuban Linx 2‘s secret weapon behind the boards grabs the mic and gives us the goosebumps. It ain’t nothin’ like hip-hop music. “When Bell Biv Devoe went and sampled Kool G Rap/ I was in the Rule with Brand Nu givin’ Puba dap.” Spotted: eskay’s shop. Missed the tweet! Sorry, Scram.
Last night at his “secret” Red Bull-sponsored show in NYC, Jay got tipsy off the Jack and went in several times on the song that has the Internets goin’ nuts. Best seat in the house! Ha! B.Dot got more footage on way and here’s full audio from Grand Good.
Finally, we hear from the man himself. Yesterday in his birthplace, Po finally addressed the press. He explains why he changed his govt. name to Moses and why he decided to speak to those Belizean students. I wanna know why homie’s dressed like a Harvard alumnus. Ha! My dude. Spotted: Sandra Rose
It ain’t over. Here’s some more looks from the Slaughterhouse video shoot. Courtesy of director John Colombo and Cloud Kickers. Thanks, fellas.

This is a great reminder of how powerful and lasting Lauryn Hill’s influence has been in music. The fact that The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill eventually reached diamond status after so many years shows that truly meaningful music can continue finding new listeners long after its original release. I also like how the article highlights the combination of hip hop, R&B, neo soul, and reggae that made the album so distinctive. Achieving more than 10 million sales is an incredible milestone, especially considering how much the music industry has changed since 1998. The album’s success feels less like a temporary trend and more like proof that strong songwriting and authentic artistic expression can remain relevant across generations. It is interesting to see how numbers can tell part of a story, whether we are looking at album sales or using a proportion calculator to understand relationships between different figures.
