Laugh Out Loud Moment

The little boy in this video has got this song stuck in my head - his rendition of this song is really cute. Watch out for when he tries to spit Ludacris' verse. Enjoy:

Something I Think You Should Hear

Keri Hilson - No Boys Allowed

Keri Hilson is definitely a dark horse, and with No Boys Allowed I think she's inviting us all to see who she really is. With her last instalment I thought we were seeing, and forgive me for what I'm about to say, I thought we were seeing talent on the level of Aaliyah. With backing from Timbaland I was sure Keri Hilson was going to be that artist that touched us deeply with her music but it turns out she really is not.

No Boys Allowed is not a bad album, I do like a couple songs, I really like 'One Night Stand' but of course there are a lot of songs that I don't like. The number one one being 'Pretty Girl Rock' and for anyone female who thinks that song is empowering *pauses* I have to question who you'd regard as a strong women.

So yeah the album's alright but what I'm not understanding is why it's called No Boys Allowed when all she does is sing about boys, I guess common sense isn't common anymore. This album is just standard, I wish that Keri would drop this "I don't need a man attitude", yeah it was cute in 'Turning Me On' but it quickly turned to trashy with 'The Way You Love Me'.

As much as I dislike this song, I figured it's only fair you see exactly why I think it's so bad:

Overall I'm not loving it but do let me know what your thoughts are on No Boys Allowed  

Laugh Out Loud Moment

This video is actually too funny - I don't know what's funnier the fact that the little boy could actually give Shakira a run for her money or the music that has been placed on top of the footage.My sister sent me this video and I almost died of laughter when I watched it, so I hope you find it as entertaining as I did.

Keri Hilson - One Night Stand ft. Chris Brown

This is another Hilson and Brown colaboration which I quite like  and I've only listened to it twice. As for the video, I'm not feeling it, the pair look like mechanics from the Matrix and the matching blonde hair is lame. More lame than the matching hair colours is their dance routine which just lacks the wow factor. But what I will say is that I'm happy that Chris Brown has finally premiered his new hairstyle in a video. Overall, it was just alright; I don't love it, but I don't hate it.

Be sure to leave comments and let me know what you think of this song, laters xx

Rest In Peace



Elizabeth Taylor

This is another sad week in showbiz, as the iconic actress and beauty, Elizabeth Taylor has passed away, age 79, due heart failure - R.I.P. Elizabeth Taylor (27th February, 1932 - 23rd March, 2011). 

Really Quick

 

I'm Not Sure Who Irritates Me More...Probably Rihanna

So I've just come back from the library and I was just doing my last checks on celebrity gossip and of course I went to my number one source, the beloved, Concrete Loop, and obviously these two "entertainers" (above) were at the top of the page.

It's got to the point where I don't know which one out of Chris Brown and Rihanna gets under my skin more; like they are both just disgracing the face of young people in the industry. If you haven't heard already Chris Brown went on Good Morning America and when he was questioned about the "situation" that happened two years ago he started getting rude and then took it upon himself to go backstage and smash up his dressing room before storming out onto the street and acting a damn fool, whilst looking like a crackhead.

On the other hand, we've got Miss Umbrella (and yes, she is still rocking them red wigs up and down the world) who can no longer sell out shows; which means people have started paying attention to the fact she can't sing, she can't really dance and she has a bad attitude. But if anything, I'm happy that she's not selling tickets because it was only a couple weeks ago that she wanted to get rude on Twitter to Ciara about booking shows, and now who's struggling?

To round up, (as I've got to go to bed because I've got a lecture in 6 hours and 50 minutes), what goes around comes around. Chris Brown doesn't deserve to sell records and just move on with his life, until he is willing to really apologise and most importantly acknowledge how big a deal what he did two years ago to Rihanna was. As for Rihanna, she needs to realise that her s*** does stink, get a new weave and re-adjust her attitude; perhaps these two are a match made in Hollywood heaven.

Is This Music? Really?

Forget Parental Advisory

Not too long ago I posted Omarion's video for his single, 'Come & F**k With Me', within that post I had a little rant about music videos becoming too overly explicit and there was me thinking that the worst was over, boy was I wrong. Skepta. Need I say anymore? If you haven't seen Skepta's "music video" for his single, 'All Over The House', then ofcourse you won't understand this post and obviously because I don't condone that video I will not be adding a link to it on my blog.

Let me start by saying the 'All Over The House' video has is NOT a music video, it isn't even a great song; what it is, is a four minute porn film. I really don't get why Skepta, as a musician, thought that a porn film would make for a good video idea. I get that everyone wants exposure but if this video was Skepta's plan for exposure then shame on him because he's got it all wrong. There was absolutely, 100% no need for such a video and if I'm honest I hope his attempt of getting a buzz and getting his name circulating flops. I strongly believe that if you make good music, work hard, have a decent following and continue to perfect your craft then success is inevitable; with the exception of those who just get lucky.

To round up, Skepta could've (and should've come) better and if he did want to create a buzz with that video, he needs to get himself a publicist. Any publicist with some sense would've told him that he had no business making an appearance in that video. Instead, he should've let that porn film/video cause a stir and then release a statement claiming it's not the official video and release a TV-friendly video for 'All Over The House'. But I'm guessing Skepta's proud that his video made it onto WorldStarHipHop, so pat on the back for him, not - that video equals a massive FAIL!

Laugh Out Loud Moment

Ok, so a lot of people have been talking about this song and video and I guess it's time for me to put in my two piece. Rebecca Black. Wow - I actually don't know what to say. Well, first off, I'm not sure whether she's an actual artist or whether this is a spoof, but I hope for her sake it's a joke because this is possibly the worst song EVER!! The song is called, 'Friday' and it auto-tune at its worse, as for the video it's not much better. If this is a real artist then I feel rather sorry for her because somebody should've told her that the song sucks. There's not much more I can say so check it out for yourself:
  

Rebecca Black - Friday

Something I Think You Should Hear...

Chris Brown - F.A.M.E.

So if you're a big Chris Brown fan then you've been waiting for this album for a while and I'm guessing you think it's a good album. However if you like good music you'll agree with me on the fact that this album is not great at all; the hype around this album has seriously outshadowed the fact that this ablum lacks a lot. 

I could go track by track and explain why this isn't a "great" album, I mean I won't call it rubbish, Wiz Khalifa's album is deserving of that title, but F.A.M.E. is just whatever. I can't even put it in words, what I can say is that it is much better than Graffiti but it has nothing on Exclusive.

My main problem with this album is that if this album is a dedication to his fans then all the songs should have stories behind them but instead the majority of these tracks are about the same thing...sex...*yawns*

The only songs which I think justify the title of this album are Beautiful People and Champion.

So moving on from that I will admitt that Brown does have an alright collective of tracks, although I do think some are way too vulgar e.g. Wet The Bed. In conclusion, I'm not impressed and I think Chris Brown needs to get off this "bad boy" tip, grow up and get back into the lab (preferably the one he was in when he created Exclusive) and come back with something much better.

As I don't like any of the songs from this album very much, I figured I'd give you a throwback:

Please comment and let me know your take on F.A.M.E.

Chris Brown - Look At Me Now ft. Busta Rhymes & Lil' Wayne

Chris Brown will be dropping his fourth album, 'F.A.M.E.' in less than two weeks and he has chosen to lead the project with an up-tempo track called 'Look At Me Now' which features verses from Busta Rhymes and Lil' Wayne. As much as I love to hate Chris Brown the brother's got talent; in this video (and on the track)  Brown displays his rapping skills again, proves that he can still sing and shows off more of his dance moves. The video which was directed by Colin Tilley, and does it's job of entertaining its audience well. What I will say is that I'm disappointed at Mr. Brown for not showing off his newly dyed hair, other than that, I like the song and the video - "If you've got eyes look at me now b****!"
