R&B/Soul: Raheem DeVaughn – “Fire We Make”

183384_10151099979829261_1607017743_nSoul singer Raheem DeVaughn is back with another one of his ‘Radio Raheem Remixes’ of songs that he continues to make greater when he adds his own personal touch to it.

Miguel – “Do You” Reggae ReFix feat. Sammie (Prod. ReFix Kingz)

Reggae Refix - Jayforce.comLike most people that enjoy quality music, Miguel’s stellar “Do You…” track is one of my favorites from his Kaleidoscope Dream album out that’s out now & up for a Grammy award for Best Urban Contemporary album. The production duo “The ReFix Kingz” (Edley Shine & DJ JButtah) add a very excellent reggae flavored dynamic with their remix featuring Atlanta based R&B singer Sammie. This is hot. Definitely diggin’ the Island vibes on this one.  In case you’ve never seen the video to the original version you can check it out HERE.

Pete Rock On ESPN First Take (Video)

One of the top 3 hip hop producers of all-time, the legendary Pete Rock appeared on ESPN’s First Take this morning to debate the key sports stories of the day with Stephen A. Smith & Skip Bayless. When I heard Pete Rock was going to be on the show I knew I was gonna tune in to watch it, but I did have some reservations because over the years Pete Rock has never been a very vocal person even in hip hop related interviews. After watching the show this morning it did appear to be a little rough for Pete Rock as his relatively shy & laid back demeanor was indeed overshadowed by Stephen A. Smith & Skip Bayless who appeared to pick up the bulk of the debating. Check out the first segment above & more video from Pete Rock’s appearance on ESPN’s First Take below…..

Comedy: ‘Django’ Guilt – Black People’s Two-Week Pass (Video)

The Official Comedy channel on YouTube has identified a social phenomenon that kicks in every time a movie like ‘Roots’ or ‘Django’ comes out – ‘Django’ Guilt. When guilty-feeling White people feel obliged to overcompensate for the wrongs done to Black people, as revealed to them by the latest movie along that injustice theme. But caution, Black people: The be-nice-to-those-poor-people window is only two weeks. In the meantime, go nuts… speed, weed, whatever you need. Do that *ish while guilty feeling White people pardon you. But when time’s up…
