Kurupt Supports Former Clippers Owner Donald Sterling + Thoughts On Marriage & Relationships (Video)

Kurupt opened up about his relationship with V. Stiviano during an exclusive sit-down with VladTV, and explains why he gave her a home visit soon after the news broke of her leaked messages with Donald Sterling. The rapper says that he was just looking out for a good friend, and Kurupt adds that he would do the same for any of his friends.

During the interview Kurupt also shared his thoughts on Donald Sterling, and believes they “took a good man down.” The West Coast emcee says that it shouldn’t have come as a surprise that Donald is “racist,” considering his age.” – VladTV

Dave East – “Around Here” (Prod. By Sunny Dukes x LV) [Video]

Lord have mercy, if they merc me, may my art live on.
Dave East

Plain and simple. The music, message and medium. Gritty visuals go appropriately with gritty real-talk content: It ain’t safe “Around Here” for whack emcees in the game; or for anybody in the hood. Watch Dave East rhyme on all that. Hear and grab this hit and more off the East mixtape “Black Rose” below.

Incredible. Jeremih was steady going to school, just living day-to-day on the Southside of Chicago… and already had the hit record! In this vid, J takes us back to his old stomping grounds. We meet his family, walk through his old hood, and end up catch the same bus he used to catch.

Good viewing. Hit play.

R&B: Poo Bear – “Work For It” feat. Tyga x Justin Bieber (Video)

Yep. I’ve posted his music before. And as long as Pooh Bear keeps putting ’em out like this… will continue to do so. Good music, this “Work For It” (featuring Tyga). Lots of pop star cameo power dropped in this visual, too. Can’t hate the player for that, right? Ha.

(And the Eye Candy in there. Nice. Won’t hate the player for that!)

Baked Alaska (Documentary)

It all started with “…f#ck it I quit.”

Never thought a weed head would say that, did ya? Hahaaa! True, Charlo Greene did not quit her relationship with Mary Jane. In fact, she started (actually, kicked into overdrive) a public debate/campaign for Alaska’s legalization of marijuana. She had to quit her job as a television reporter to do it…

…or did she? Her quitting was a media and viral video score for her cause (good PR strategy).

On November 4, 2014, the state of Alaska was faced with a ballot measure to potentially make recreational marijuana legal. In this episode of Weediquette, we follow democracy in action through the eyes of Charlo Greene.

Greene became the firebrand folk hero of the “Yes on 2” movement after she famously quit her job as a news reporter on the air to run a cannabis club. VICE travels to Alaska to follow Charlo, and along the way we meet a cast of Alaskan natives who all have something at stake in this election.

R&B/Soul: Stacy Barthe – ‘Angel’

It’s not every day a relatively new artist can successfully execute a remake of a classic song. Stacy Barthe is not your everyday singer & songwriter so I knew she would kill this cover of one of Anita Baker’s signature records. I’m definitely a fan of Stacy Barthe’s music so it’s a dope surprise she has more amazing work coming with her first official major release. She’s signed to John Legend’s new label ‘Homeschool’ & the new project ‘BEcoming’ due next year in 2015. Check out snippets of the upcoming album after the jump below….

Better yet, use that play button above to watch Aidan share her gift(s).

Aidan’s vid got Trigga Trey cussin’ at it. It’s alright, man. We know it’s her perfect smile, eyes, thighs, back, tats… hell everything on her is perfect! You can follow all that Aidan Nycole thicky-thickness on Instagram, too (if you aren’t already).

Wale feat. Jeremih – “The Body” (Video)

Brand new video for metro D.C. area native Wale’s new single ‘The Body” featuring the most in demand Chicago singer Jeremih. I’ve said it hundreds of times before that Jeremih’s unique voice & sound has been helping many of his collaborators crank out hit singles.  Artists have been getting more assists from him than Chris Paul in a Clippers game.  I’m definitely digging the classy vibe & look of this new clip. Look for Wale’s new project ‘The Album About Nothing” to drop March 31st 2015.

Comedy: Kevin Hart Explains The Difference Between ‘White’ & ‘Black’ Strip Club Culture (Video)

I agree with Kevin Hart 100% on this & have even said the same thing on my Twitter page. All strip clubs are not created equal. I don’t discriminate when it comes to women, but I do tend to avoid the “white strip clubs.” Hahaaa

Bugsy Malone (1976) [Film]

It’s a slam dunk. Watch Hollywood. See how they have eyes on the site. Someone is sleep at the wheel if they don’t remake this kiddie-cast classic!

The classic gangster story of Bugsy Malone told with an all child cast.

“A Classic 70’s Family Mobster Style Movie Starring Jodie Foster & Scott Baio. (The Story Of Bugsy Malone – The Notorious Mobster, Told In A Comedic & Musical Fashion By A Cast Of Buncha Kids)”

Yeah, they need to do a remake (just like the “Annie” movie just released). Watch the full movie above. Watch for the remake (and remember who told you the idea first).

Eye Candy: Jai Livia (Behind-The-Scenes, Part 1) [Video]

Almost perfect. Almost. Now, the model Jai Livia (aka 5StarJai) is incredible! And her on the beach… put it this way… I don’t know what the temperature was that day, but the shoot with the hot model looks like it went cool. Watch. It will have you feeling a little… warm.

So why almost you ask? The music. You know, sometimes the cussing just isn’t necessary. It just kinda goes way too hard when Future drops in with the rapping. Just saying.

Anyway, this visual experience is a very nice reminder of warmer days gone by (and coming again); with visions of lovely Jay Livia on some beach, somewhere. So nice.

Also nice: Jay Livia aka @5StarJai on Instagram. Follow her there if you want more.
