Freddie Gibbs/Bun B – Oil Money [Video]

Plus a few other artists that I couldn’t fit into the title. Off that Str8 Killa EP, this is a track I was loving when it leaked and still loving now – so I’m delighted that they’ve made a video for it!

Bruno Mars-Just The Way You Are Video

Fantastic song, and a great video that highlights the passion and emotion in the lyrics well. The general simplicity of the surroundings and scenario definitely lends itself to emphasising the quality of the song.

I’m a big fan of the cassette tape animation (you’ll know what I mean when you watch it): it would have been [...]

A few words from Mr. Munroe himself:

“Dear Friends & Family:

I’m emailing today to share the first installment from a new project I’m working on…The Revox Suite. If you remember my revox of Bob Dylan’s “Who Killed Davey Moore” off my Unsung Hero Mixtape then you get the idea. I wanted to create a series of [...]

Some superb stuff in our August snapshot which perfectly compliments the closing of summer as we welcome autumn with open arms. We’ve mixed old school with new school to create that sound which will have you rocking out until next month’s episode. New material from the likes of Atmosphere, Usher, Fat Joe, Sage Francis, Lil [...]

Linkin Park-Wretches and Kings

Ajay — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 00:43:18 +0000

Old school Linkin Park fans rejoice: this is that vintage Linkin Park sound. There was a concern amongst longtime fans that Linkin Park had gone techno, as The Catalyst (whilst a very good song) seemed to abandon their rockier edge.

This will dispel those fears. The track opens up with one of those hard, rough and [...]

R&B Fridays: Episode 64

Ajay — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 00:22:34 +0000

Lots of material in this episode, and plenty has already been released throughout the week.

To recap: Trey Songz’s latest visuals, Khalil’s debut visuals, the official single from the upcoming Foreign Exchange album, Cee-Lo’s anticipated F*** You video, a fantastic cover of Outkast’s Prototype, and finally a new Trey Songz and Drake collaboration.

Oddly, there are some [...]

B.o.B and Rivers Cuomo (of Weezer)-Magic Video

Ajay — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 12:48:01 +0000

Surprised at how much this track has taken off. Apparently, it’s already charted in the US Top 10 before this video was released, so congratulations on that one!

I do like this track, and it was one of the better ones from the album: the positive, summer spin on the track definitely makes this one to [...]
