Jill Scott – ‘Shame’ feat. Eve | ‘Lovely Day’ (Bill Withers Cover)


Jilly from Philly is about to hit us with some new joints this year! Jill Scott is set to release a new album called ‘Light Of The Sun’ on Warner Bros & her former label Hidden Beach is going to drop a compilation album of unreleased joints called ‘Just Before Dawn’. I’m assuming the Hidden Beach project due later this year was a part of the agreement involving her break from her former label. That’s wasup! Check out the ‘Shame’ joint featuring Eve which is sort of a nod to the Special Ed classic ‘The Magnificient’. The ‘Lovely Day’ track is a cover of the Bill Withers classic too!

New Music: Jill Scott – Love Rain (Gotta Remix)


It seems like many people are beginning to get that itch for Jill Scott to release some new music so producer “GOTTA” decided to remix Jill Scott’s ‘Love Rain’ from her debut album. This sounds really dope on some cool out ish. The timing couldn’t be better as ‘Jilly from Philly’ just got some good news for fans as she recently signed a new distribution deal with Warner Brothers for her upcoming album ‘Light Of The Sun’. Prior to the new deal with Warner Brothers records, Jill had a pretty ugly dispute with her former label Hidden Beach before it was resolved legally. The ‘Light Of The Sun’ album is due to drop this summer although Jill gave fans a few sneak peaks while out on tour with Maxwell last year.  Definitely looking forward to Jill’s upcoming album too…..That’s wasup!

Trey Songz – “Jill” (Sumn Real) [Produced By A-Wall]

You so a hundred that don’t change. I’m so a hundred that won’t change. I’m so sprung I’m T-Pain… We need love to relieve pain.

Okay. So the Trigga got triggered by Jill Scott’s showing her ‘mic’ skills on stage, too. Wanting Jill to give him “Somn Real” for real! Even serenaded that on a flip of her track (produced by A-Wall). Some dope R&B heat right here. Maybe they will… um… collaborate (heh heh).

Eric Roberson – “Leave It In” (Video)

I’ve known many stallions. But baby, you’re a unicorn!

Hold up! Is that Jill Scott? Nope, but the vivacious Laurin Talese is nowhere near a disappointment! Ham mercy (hams & yams!!).

You better talk that psychadellic slick talk to her then, Erro! Matter of fact… sing that! That way, she can’t resist. Chances are she’ll let you “Leave It In” (yeeeaaaah, freaky-freaky-now, like THAT)!

“Leave It In” off of the “LNS” album. Available exclusively in “The Process” at www.EricRobersonMusic.com

Oh, Eric means he is leaving his heart in (wink). Got it… And, for the love of love, somebody give that man some ‘more cowbell’ (dope)!

Comedy: Do Black Guys Prefer Big Booty Over Big Boobs? (Video)

Booty = Cake = Listens To Jill Scott… Alright then. Let’s figure this booty vs. boobie thing out. Cakes or jugs, it’s all love. Funny clip. Cute Honeyz. Hella sexy!

Everyone has preferences, and it’s not uncommon to assume that our Black brothers have a preference for booty over boobs. This assumption is put to the test to determine if it’s true.

RIP Prince

a9217c156b294ab933ed3a7867e0af221ce65f9c760721de42c13e1bcbe52307_-original

The Rock Soul R&B Funk Pop music world was rocked to its mantle and core today as news of the passing of a legend spread: The Purple Rocker, Prince, suddenly left this earthly plane today. Details are still being revealed, and we certainly need the time to process the information and our feelings; but we have the gist. We know, sadly, the mourning can begin.

Only now can we truly know what it will be like to hear ‘that’ Prince song/album/collection, knowing that he is no longer with us. At least with Prince… He knew… he HAD to know… that he was and will forever be loved & admired by millions; and acclaimed at every strata of the industry – casual listener to sternest critic. Hit the jump to see sentiments to that effect expressed across the Interwebs honoring and bidding farewell to the 57-year-old Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame performer.

Prince Rogers Nelson of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Born to make music, make a ruckus, and make history. What a life! You did that and lived that, Sire. Thank you blessing and bringing us along all these years. And now Your Royal Badness, rest in peace.

Yasiin Bey – “Re:Definition” (Mixtape) By DJ Dub

artworks-000042411796-1u8obz-originalAnyone who knows me is well aware that one of my favorite hip hop artists is the emcee formerly known as Mos Def.  Looks like I’m not the only one as DJ Dub links with FreeOnsmash to deliver this brand new Yasiin Bey“ReDefinition” mixtape.  Listen, download & check out the tracklisting plus additional information below….

“Some artists in the hip-hop genre are so confident in their natural talent, that they can do whatever they please on the mic. The Mighty Mos Def, I’m sorry, Yasiin Bey is one of those people. Being able to flex his acting chops, serve as a conduit for the spirit of Ali by way of Louis Vuitton and not miss a beat on the microphone, is an amazing feat by any standard. DJ Dub brings portions of his vast catalog to life mixing classics, b-sides and his infamous Dub mixes to create a listening experience that should not be missed.  Consider Re:DEFinition as your official introduction to the artist known as Yasiin Bey.”
