3rd and Final Installment of the, 'Flashing Lights' Saga

Looks like the video came off of a fresh game of CLUE. Enjoy!

2nd Version of Kanye's 'Flashing Lights'

Enjoy.




My thoughts. Crazy concept(but we all knew that). Honestly, I think the concept is for those wanting to break into the industry, or those who are already in it. But, it's a wake up call to all of them that wake up poppin' bottles and chasing those "Flashing Lights" at night, just to do it all over again the very next day, it's all they live for.

I'll keep the Mimosa, they can have that nightlife BS.

What do you think of the video? I'll say I still am partial to the first video. In case you didn't see it, here it is...with an explanation to the concept of the video. Pretty interesting. Enjoy.

Damn

Situation:

Okay so, I'm perusing through several blogs and I see the same video. And I've seen this particular video several times when I was perusing through those several blogs that I mentioned about a sentence back. I figure...if it's blog worthy, then it's alright with me. Just a bit sad at how late I am with the video appearing on my page. Forgive me. 75 Bars by those cats The Roots.



And one of my personal favs from them... Break You Off ft. Musiq (Live)

"Just Touched Down in London-Town"

Estelle. An awesome voice that compliments her effortless rap game. She has been making big buzz with her new single specially made for U.S. release, "American Boy" and for a few months now her state-side fans have been waiting for a visual of the song. So, I am ecstatic to see her new video for, "American Boy" ft. Kanye West. Enjoy!!

Oh, and cool down down, don't acta a fool now now.


And here is a goodie for you, her first state-side release. And my first introduction to Estelle. Nice to meet you. "Wait a Minute... (Just a Touch)"


Okay, one more, lol. She's an 80s baby and a female MC!! I-see-you!
Reminds me of Dizzee Rascal...merely just because he's from London, but remember him? I know I do and I miss him.
"1980"

Dammit 'Ye!!

Okaay, so he didn't premire the video for "Flashing Lights" today on BET...but here is a "trailer" to the video. It's about two and a half mintues long. Directed, Spike Jonze and features Rita G ((Can you say Apollonia??!))who I MUST RANT and RAVE about because she is a real, everday woman... very porportional and what I mean by that is that her ass is not so damn huge and her waist isn't pencil thin, i.e.. Lola Angel or Angel Lola whatever and whoever she goes by. Rita G actually has meat on her damn bones and she don't play the f--k around...reminds me of Angela Basset in "Waiting to Exhale" but you'll see, lol. enjoy.




OKay so you just got through watchin' the video...weird aye? lol. It's all good, Kanye is definetly going out of the far left field on this one! Can't wait till Monday's OFFICIAL Premire on BET!!! Until then.

And once again...Lu on SOHH's Focused.




Man, okay I have to address these political back and forths that have been going on b/w Rhymefest and Lupe Fiasco. SOHH.com, kinda pissed me off a bit with their "article"(which was horrible journalism, bad spelling, and wasn't OBJECTIBLE but it was more like a damn blog ,like this one, and had OPINIONS written all over it, that's a dern NO NO in journalism)...and they didn't put up my comment to the "article" that I posted because I'm guessing I had something real to say, or maybe because I called their a$$'s out and to say the least I wasn't BIAS. Also, I guess I wasn't using enough ignorant "internet thug" lingo that they LOVE to use so much.

So, enjoy the video and allow for me to gather my thoughts. Peace.

It's going down....

"A logical progression on a timeline..."

Thowin' something back for ya.
What seems to be a really OLLLDDD LP song. X-Ecutioners ft. Linkin Park. This was my shizz back in the day, 10th grade man, good ol' days. Great ol' Linkin Park. I used to sit on the piano for hours playing by ear and learning all their songs. I had the old Grey Daze Album from Chester B.'s old group and learned how to play 'My December' and some other joints off LP's first album 'Hybrid Theory'. But anywho. Enjoy because it's going down.

So, yeah....I cop'd "The Cool"...

**the date above is wrong for some strange reason...i cop'd it on the release date dec. 18, 2007 if you haven't picked up a copy, pick up five, lol. muah!**


and it most certainly is the coolest!! I didn't go to sleep until like 6 this morning, listening to it. Absoulte top 5 fav's on the album:

Go-Go Gadget Flow
Paris, Tokyo
Intruder Alert
Hi-Definition
Superstar

But the whole album is dope and everyone needs to get the realest Hip-Hop album.

I'm just realllllly glad that the album wasn't 10 songs long, it's 19!!! Worth the money to purchase of course ;)
