Christmas Jade and Ibe Style

As a gift Jade tweeted the remix of Blessed Memory Ibe made. I think it's awesome and the video goes hand-in-hand. Now I want to watch The Grinch Who Stole Christmas.
Check out Ibe's website here for other videos and stuff he's produced.

A Vacuum that Sings Pleasantries

This isn't directly about music, but I think this invention is amazing. If I had to buy a vacuum I would definitely get this. You no longer need to clean with the uncomfortable sucking sound of a vacuum, now you can rock out to your music!!!!

Diamond Rings with Chipmunk

I've been sitting on this song since Nov. 4 because I didn't know what to write along with it, but today it hit me when it came on my iPod.
When I listen to songs I tend to envision their videos or how I would make one to go along with it. When I hear this song, I automatically think of Moulin Rouge courtesans and their pimp, if that's what you call them. So just try to envision this while you listen to the song about Chipmunk being a new and successful artist.
The scene is in an underground speakeasy with smoke and a huge stage with a grand piano. There's a whole bunch of flappers and then Chipmunk is the pimped out and has a huge diamond pinky ring. So he's more in focus then the rest of the crowd who are throwing money, dancing around, and drinking until they fall over. Then when the chorus comes on a spotlight hits the stage and THE one prized courtesan comes out with a huge diamond pendent hanging from her corset. She sings and performs and such.
So they may not be an original idea, but that's how I envision part of it going down.
I like this song because it takes me to a different decade, his London accent is pleasing to the ears, the horns are great and the female vocals are fun too
Take a listen and tell me what you think.

Profit from Misfortunes

You know how they say artists make more money after they die? Well, I think this concept should also apply when an artist has something tragic happen to them. For instance, the Jackson family has made millions after Michael died, Justin Timberlake's album Justified was a success and I feel like it was because everyone was anxious to see what he wrote about his and Britney Spears' break up, pretty sure The Beatles sales go up every time a member dies (RIP Lennon and Harrison),and Adele's album is amazing due to her break up with a love. But the main reason why I'm writing this is because of Chris Brown's new album, Graffiti.
There has been mixed feelings about him and the album, but I'm going to straight out say I'm a supporter. Yes, I would scream it out in public if someone asked me to. At first,I did have some inner struggles about liking the album because of the whole Rihanna thing, but honestly that situation is responsible for this great album. A lot of the songs are , well at least I assume they are about Rihanna.

New Mike Milan..and BP3

Everyone loves a little Jay-Z in their life. After BP3 dropped, Jay-Z has gotten his first #1 hit and now Mike Milan is tackling this hit maker. Mike Milan was inspired after he heard BP3 and set aside his ongoing project to tackle BP3. He has leaked the first 2 tracks and I must say it's pretty commendable. But open your ears and see what you think. If you like it, just wait till mid December when he drops the whole project.

What Milan Talkin Bout

1 Epic Song, 3 Epic Man and 2 Pianos

For the 25th Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Anniversary show Stevie Wonder and John Legend performed Michael Jackson's The Way You Make Me Feel. It's one of my favorite Michael Jackson songs and then you throw in the epic Stevie Wonder with my number one favorite male singer...wooah. The things that bugged me were that it seemed like Stevie forgot the words and John didn't really sing. But check it out.

Song of the Day: "Maniac"

Timbaland is coming out with some great songs. I really like this song because of it's fast tempo and Keri Hilson's voice is growing on me. I think this is also a great featuring for Chris Brown and D.O.E. They kill their parts. The website that I got it from says it's a Timbo song featuring everyone else, but I must say Keri shines in it. Give it a listen!
