DJ Kayslay – “Living Legend” feat. Jadakiss x Queen Latifah x Bun B (Video)

I built the ground that you walk on.
I taught you how to tilt your crown. Come on!

If seeing the lineup for this rhymefest did not make you wanna click play ASAP… maaaybeee you aren’t in the right place. Just saying. But stay if you wanna know what a “Living Legend” flows like. We got three examples right here for you – Jadakiss, Queen Latifah, and Bun B!

Note: If your response to seeing Queen Latifah as one of the emcees on this was, “Oh, she raps? Wonder what made her try that.” Then you get a pass. And a drag rag… to wipe that wetness from behind your ears… young’un (haha)!

This is the title track for an EP that DJ Kayslay has out now (linked below). But hold up. Before you go for that. Peep the visual. Golden Era bars! Plus, salute to Kay for ALL THAT THICK HONEYNESS in this video #YeezusWEST

A Powerful Cast, Including Queen Latifah And Jill Scott, Tells The Story Of The Water Crisis In “Flint” (Trailer)

Coming to Lifetime Television in a few days. Cannot believe this went on… is likely still going on. And it is NOT fake news. Hell, it is hard to imagine that this is real life sometimes. But this trailer is teasing a movie that tells the story as it should; with passion and high emotion. People HAVE to CARE when this happens; made to care, and care enough to DO SOMETHING!

“Flint” is the gripping retelling of a crisis that shook a nation and shines a light on the whistleblowers who exposed the biggest environmental scandal of our generation. LeeAnne Walters (Betsy Brandt, “Breaking Bad”), Melissa Mays (Marin Ireland, “Sneaky Pete”) and Nayyirah Shariff (Jill Scott, “Steel Magnolias”) join forces after discovering that the drinking water in Flint, Michigan is contaminated, resulting in a slew of devastating medical problems for their families. When their claims go unheeded, they band together to expose the wrongdoings committed by their reckless, bean-counting government officials whose carelessness caused irrevocable harm to the lives of its residents. Golden Globe®-winner, Academy Award® and Grammy®-nominee Queen Latifah (“Star”) also stars and executive produces. World Premiere October 28 at 8/7c on Lifetime.

Fat Joe – “Another Day” feat. French Montana x Rick Ross x Tiara Thomas (Video)

Fat Joe is going hard on the push of his latest single “Another Day” featuring French Montana, Rick Ross, & singer Tiara Thomas.  Although this single is a nod to Queen Latifah’s hip hop classic “Just Another Day” reflecting the good & bad of everyday life in New Jersey, the Bronx-born Miami resident Fat Joe does an excellent job assembling this remake for 2014. The feature film cinematic visuals directed by Salvatore Rubino for the song works well, but the video would have been even better had Queen Latifah herself made a short cameo in the song.  Still dope nonetheless.
