Lil Wayne' Carter III's OFFICIAL 1st Single: Lollipop (VIDEO AND TRACK!) The long awaited and delayed The Carter III finally has an OFFICIAL first single, the song is titled Lollipop and was to be released later this week but of 'course we got it before that. The video is also set to premiere tonight on BET's Access Granted, but of course we got it before that too. It's a rough cut of the video but whatever, we got it. The track features Lil Wayne one again experimenting with the Roger Zapp/T-Pain voice modulator thing, and at times can become annoying, but all in all the track is hott, but definitely not what I expected Wayne to drop first. The single also features the late, great Sean "Static" Garrett, of the R&B group Playa. I have been meaning to post on this, but Sean Garrett passed away two weeks ago what is said to be complications from a brain anuresym. Static was one of Devante from Jodeci and Timbaland's protege who got his start with the group Playa and their mild-hit "Cheer To You." He then went behind the scenes and became a monster penning numerous hits such as Ginuwine's "Pony" and "Aaliyah's "Are You That Somebody" and trust me many, many more. This is Static's last piece of work and the last video footage that can be seen of him. May his soul rest in peace.
Now I told yall I was going to post this song multiple times 'cause this infectious song is just going to keep on growing. NY's O'Neal McKnight has just released his official video for "Check Your Coat" and should be available at media outlets beginning next week. The video is a Lil X helmed, updated version of his independent video, that can been on his myspace, but this one has a better look, better cameos, and yeah the Deleron from Back To The Future. Watch the video here first and don't forget to Check Your Coat.
Lupe Fiasco has decided to keep the heat goin' on his track Superstar and has enlisted two Atlanta heavyweights for remix duties. Young Jeezy and T.I. both spit verses on Lupe's track, and I have to say both artists both went a little hard. Still don't know how T.I. managed to get on this track but I guess with internet these days all he had to do was just send it out, huh. Anyway peep the track here.
Usher Scores #1 Single In AmericaHe's baaaccckkkk. Usher has the new #1 single in America, unseating Flo-Rida's Low after 12weeks at the top. Usher posts the third-largest jump to No. 1 in Billboard Hot 100 history as "Love in This Club" featuring Young Jeezy, zooms 51-1. It also opens at No. 1 on Hot Digital Songs with 198,000 downloads, the largest first-week sum since Sean Kingston shifted 260,000 in the Aug. 11, 2007, issue. Usher's new album, "Here I Stand" drops in June and this is definately a HUGE boost. You heard it from me first when I said the boy needs to come extra hard with this new album for him to shake of all the bad press he got with the whole marriage fiasco and let me tell this is one big step in doing just that. Here go the single again, that we put yall on almost a month ago. MF 3.0 always come with the fresh joints first.
New Bob Marley Flick On The WayThe Weinstein Company have just announced that they will begin production on the first ever bio-pic on the legendary Bob Marley. The movie will be based on the book, No Woman No Cry: My Life With Bob Marley, a book by Marley's widow, Rita Marley who will also serve as an executive producer. The book offers an intimate account of the Marleys' oft-tumultuous marriage and the Jamaican music star's rise from the streets of Kingston's Trenchtown to stirring it up as one of the 20th century's most acclaimed singer-songwriters before his untimely death from cancer at the age of 36. Also, Bob Marley's daughter-in-law Lauryn Hill is rumored to have a part in the movie and may play Rita Marley, herself.
MTV BANS Gnarls Barkley's New VideoMTV Networks recently announced that none of their outlets will play Gnarls Barkley new video for their single "Run." But it's not banned for the reason you thinking. In fact the reason why MTV, VHI, and other such networks won't play the video, not like they play many videos anyway, is because it failed the standard Harding Test -- guidelines established to prevent TV images from triggering epileptic seizures. It's visual effects are the cause of the failed test and won't be shown until the problem is fixed. Justin Timberlake makes a cameo in the video and MF 3.0 has it right here for you to get your "seizure" on. J/K
