R&B: Victoria Monet – “Ready” (Video)
April 12, 2017
Keep your mind right, your body tight, and be everything you want to see in him… Victoria Monet’s musical treatise “Ready” is talking directly to the ladies. BUT this visual presentation is for the fellas. Plenty to see, more to love. HOT candy. That hot, sweet cinnamon candy. And even though the song says it’s better to do it (get “Ready”) while you are single, you and your baby can watch this together. Affirmation, and ideas, delivered in the sexiest way by Victoria Monét!
Joey Bada$$ – “Land Of The Free” (Live Performance) [Video]
April 12, 2017
One of the things that could have been a casualty of Stephen Colbert’s move from Comedy Central to big network TV would have been the kinds of artists he booked. Fortunately, we are still getting to see the likes of Joey Bada$$ do their thing on The Late Show on CBS. Dope!
Rapper Joey Bada$$ makes his Late Show debut with a track from his upcoming album ‘All-Amerikkkan Bada$$.’

Thor: Ragnarok (Teaser Trailer)
April 11, 2017
In Marvel Studios’ “Thor: Ragnarok,†Thor is imprisoned on the other side of the universe without his mighty hammer and finds himself in a race against time to get back to Asgard to stop Ragnarok—the destruction of his homeworld and the end of Asgardian civilization—at the hands of an all-powerful new threat, the ruthless Hela. But first he must survive a deadly gladiatorial contest that pits him against his former ally and fellow Avenger—the Incredible Hulk!
– Cinelinx
Rock’em sock’em on an intergalactic other-worldly level! But how in the Asgard did Hulk go from (literally) flying off into the sunset on the last Avengers movie to going the f**k off in the super-powered gladiator arena fighting Thor? No answers… yet. But an action packed teaser for the next Thor chapter… YES!

Joey Bada$$ Says New York Hip-Hop Is Stale And New York Radio Is Not Helping (Video)
April 11, 2017
Respect to Joey Bada$$. We listen to him on that mic because when he touches mics, he continually earns that respect. Take in what he is saying about the stagnation in Hip-Hop. What he is saying about how things must and do change, including Hip-Hop. Caution: It’s gonna sting a bit of you are a boom-bap-over-trap or new-stuff-is-not-real-rap proponent. There must be a righteous middle ground though. Joey calling old heads on holding the youth in the game back… saying that to ‘Old Man Ebro‘… that’s some live and direct sh!t. But as an early 20-something who’s pretty much a vet, we have to let him say it.
Maybe we should really try to give space on the established (read: old) channels for new artists out here.
Now, of course, there is much more to this interview. But that part packs a punch.
(Okay, Joey. Message received. But we reserved the right to trash trash music.)

Comedy: Who Wins When Jimmy Fallon Lip Sync Battles Shaquille O’Neal? (Video)
April 11, 2017
We all win!
Okay, so you read the title and you think: Shaq used to rap and he was always clowning during NBA All-Star Weekend game intros and hamming it up for the crowds… AND Fallon has done tons of musical fun stuff on his show. Ought to be pretty entertaining. And you’d be absolutely RIGHT!
Jimmy faces off with Shaquille O’Neal, with a surprise appearance by Pitbull, in a hilarious lip sync-off to songs like Bobby Brown’s “My Prerogative,” Ariana Grande and John Legend’s “Beauty and the Beast” and House of Pain’s “Jump Around.”
So, surprise: Pitbull! But what most of us probably perpetually underestimate is just how far and fast Jimmy will ‘go there’ to get laughs and wows from the audience. Case in point, this clip. Hahaaaa!

Nice. A good look from the still-good-looking Melyssa. Insights spoken by an insanely beautiful woman (for reals, so pretty she might drive you CRAZY)!
(But make no mistake, Melyssa’s pretty but she pulls no punches in this clip.)

Science: Just How Deep Is The Ocean? (Video)
April 11, 2017
I’ve seen videos like this before, and they get me every time. There is a BIG world out there… in the ocean. Sure there is the vast unexplored expanse of outer space, but what about the unexplored areas of our planet. NASA has had some shaving of its programs over time, and it’s unfortunate but understandable. Plus, the opportunities for international partnerships to get some space exploration done could turn out to be better for the planet’s push into the beyond.
But what if we swapped in some oceanic exploration in the U.S. and anywhere else that wanted “in” on the new nearer frontier? There is so much of our planet’s mass that we still know nothing about. Most of it is ocean. We could still spur youths’ daring (remember: kids wanted to grow up to be astronauts back in the day) and societies’ pursuit of bold advances in Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (aka STEM) research. We would definitely find new challenges, cures to problems and diseases, and more. But first, we would have to find courage. Because the ocean is deep. SCARY deep. How deep? Watch!
Just how deep does the ocean go? Way further than you think. This animation puts the actual distance into perspective, showing a vast distance between the waves we see and the mysterious point we call Challenger Deep.

Technology: Silicon Valley Piloting Security Droids For The Office Place (Video)
April 10, 2017
This thing looks like one of the Daleks on ‘Dr. Who’… Exterminate. EXTERMINATE! Hahaaa!
(Wait. Why am I laughing? Okay, moving on.)
But the design is meant to be disarming to those who might see ‘murder bot’ when one of these droids glide by. In the clip above, the droids’ applications look to be benign – sensing human presences, reporting on security anomalies like open windows and such. The only ‘Big Brotherish’ thing in the video is that ID check (think: let me see your papers), but as long as we don’t arm the droids or go all ‘Gattaca’ (think: this is an ‘inferior’ human) we should avoid a Terminator Skynet apocalypse scenario.
With those caveats, my ruling… cool future tech.

Bwaaahahaa! Mamoudou NDiaye is tired of these muthaf**king stereotypical roles that our talented muthaf**king Black actors have to play! And he addresses the situation comically… buuuut, there is more than a twinge of truth to this. Just because it is funny does not mean it is not true.

Raekwon – “M&N” feat. P.U.R.E (Video)
April 10, 2017
It’s wild how wild the singles and videos that come from “The Wild” are. Guess that’s the theme and pretty much the point of the whold thing, right? Well, if so, this “M&N” joint is toeing the right line. The alliteration back-and-forth flow between Raekwon and P.U.R.E are everything on this man!
