Jamie Foxx and T-Pain joined forces again and performed last year’s hit, “Blame It”. Near the close of their set, Doug E Fresh, Gunz N Roses’ Slash and Jamie’s sibling accompanied the tandem on stage. Hey sister, go sister!
Beyoncé brought out the riot squad during her performance of “If I Were A Boy” and Alanis Morissette’s “You Ought To Know”. Hey, Mrs. Carter!

The-Dream gets no respect. After winning a Grammy for his work on Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)”, Dream’s acceptance speech is cut short by the orchestra. Ah, Terius, they didn’t let you finish!
Before the televised ceremony, Grammy’s were awarded in the Rap category. 21 years later, they still don’t give a fuck about us. Heads Up: Jimmy
With Nas seated nearby, Com Sense ends a songwriting discussion event with an impromptu performance of his Badu-blessed big hit. Bizarre but cool. Devi Dev
Here’s something from the enigma of Soul that we never heard before. A lil’ psychedelic funk for your Sunday? I’ll pass on this one. FWMJ

Instead, he kicks some lyrics from dude’s catalogue. Funny stuff.
Still waiting for a real CDQ. Heads Up: Rap Up

Thankfully, Mikey Fresh left his crib. Here’s the headliner Luda gettin’ more than enough crowd participation for “Move Bitch” (Where’s Mystikal? Ha.) and is that “Kryptonite” I hear as the backing track for”What’s Your Fantasy”? Damn, next time! VIBE
Masego continues to show his creativity and versatility with Studying Abroad: Extended Stay. The combination of live instrumentation, smooth vocals, and West Indian influences makes this project an exciting listening experience. Adding new collaborations with talented artists gives fans even more reasons to explore the album and appreciate its musical diversity. I also appreciate how music and learning can connect through creativity, exploration, and new experiences. In the same way that listeners explore different musical styles, people can improve their practical skills by learning useful techniques such as "How to calculate proportions easily". Understanding proportions can make everyday calculations, comparisons, and problem solving much simpler. This is a great reminder that exploring new ideas can be rewarding in music, education, and daily life.
