In case you haven't seen it yet, here's Beyonce's new video, in which she apparently had a hand directing. I really enjoy this song, and this concept. Work it out Honey… Continue

This whole video is great, as it shows off some excellent spoken word artists and musicians.
But, I AM in there. Scroll along to about 6 minutes in, and catch a live rendition of an old favorite, "Talk To Him," written by yours truly. Remix coming soon!!…

One of my favorite artists in recent years, Janelle Monáe continues to kick musical butt & take fashion names with her eclectic brand of what she has deemed, "Cyber-Soul." It is a strong blend of rock, R&B, soul, and everything in between with a spritz of classical influence to season the sound. Alongside this dope music, the story of Cindy Mayweather, a product of science fiction, fantasy, and political intrigue, weaves itself through the groupings of songs, which Monáe calls 'Suites.'… Continue

This is why I love music, and why I will continue to champion great art. Please take a moment to watch this video about this amazing conductor from my country's next-door neighbor. Gustavo Dudamel has the fire in his soul & light in his eyes that all those doing music should have. And he is giving back his gift to help others. Pay close attention.
Looks like my girl Stefanie Germanotta (p/k/a Lady Gaga) is at it again...this time in full cartoon technicolor. Bluewater Productions is developing a comic book series based on the life & stylings of the new Avant-Garde Pop Diva. For those who didn't know, I'm CERTAINLY a fan of this woman. She's one of the few Pop music artists of the last 5 years to inspire & make me want to raise the bar with my music. Check out this awesome pic from the upcoming release! … Continue

When you're going through so much music & hard work, it's always fun to look back on the fun times you had doing that work. Seanmichael Rodgers, CEO of HarlemBoy University, and singer/songwriter Dy'ari were at the studio this cold night in early '09, and I decided to break out the camera.…Continue

Looks like Aubrey Graham is at it again with another radio single. I actually really like this song. Watch out, it may show up as a number for my next show (which, PS, is June 11- more details to follow over the weekend *grin*). What do you guys…Continue

For those who are unsure, Wendy Williams is a 20-year shock-jock radio veteran who has recently crossed over into daytime talk TV. She made her mark by being eccentric & unapologetic about dishing the celebrity dirt, particularly when it came to the sexual interests and conquests of the Urban entertainment community. The infamous gaydar phrase, "How U doin'??" has incited more arguments, death threats, and public condemnation than any Don Imus off-color joke (pun intended). It had been… Continue

Of the vast array of Madonna hits, "Take A Bow" is definitely one of my favorites, along with the video. Written by Babyface as part of her foray into Pop/R&B with the album "Something To Remember," it's a smooth, finely executed record about false love & what happens when we take off our masks and have to face the…Continue

Alicia keys looks stunning and delivers drama in this time-traveling tale of racial tension, relationships, and romance gone awry. Really enjoyed this one, and it's one of the few cuts off the album that's in my 'most played' sections on iTunes. Check it…Continue

We owe so much to both these amazing ladies of song. Rest In Peace to the incomparable Miss Lena Horne. Judy's got a few numbers she'd like to do with you when you find her in…
This is called taking a catchy Pop hit and making it interesting live. YAY for neon war paint and synth vocals!! Seriously though, LOL I liked this. I just wish she had some dancers, that was the missing piece. What do you… Continue
