Weekly Wisdom - We are not meant to be perfect. We are meant to be whole.
Showing posts with Tyga tag
After grinding on the mixtape scene for a few years, YMCMB recording artist Tyga is emerging from underdog status this year. From strip-club joint Rack City becoming a huge breakthrough hit for the rapper, to him being part of the reason why millions believe YOLO is The Motto, Tyga makes it clear he won’t allow Young Money comrades Drake, Nicki Minaj and (label-boss) Lil Wayne hog all the limelight.

Welcome to the first episode of Video Jukebox, a weekly post where I’ll feature my favourite music videos of the week I’ve stolen the name from one of MTV’s first ever feature shows and thank goodness I’m not famous enough (yet) to be sued for such blatant trademark infringement. Video Jukebox aired at a time when MTV was just about showcasing the latest videos from the top talent, providing a platform for both the musician and the team behind the video to shine – that’s before they started providing a place for Teen ‘Moms’, Trailer Trash, Airheads and Pornstars to shine. So in an ode to what MTV used to be about and what Yin&Yang is always about (showcasing dopeness basically) here we go, the first ever ‘episode’ with visuals from Mark Ronson, Tyga, tabi Bonney/Terri Walker, GLC/Rotimi, 14th, Iggy Azalea, Clement Marfo/Kano, Phonte and Chiddy Bang. Hit the jump for the goodies!

Months ago back when my Music News Monday series was called Music News Weekly I introduced you all to a new boyband rnb group called Mindless Behavior. Today I bring you an updated version of their debut single My Girl, the new version now features Tyga, Lil Twist and Ciara. Although the new incarnation of the song doesn’t actually feature much of the boys singing t’s still a pretty solid effort.

2010 has come and gone and as the previous year drew to a close a whole host of people made lists of their favourites/Top 10’s from the year be it in music, TV or film. I personally find it to hard write top 10 lists so I thought I’d take the idea and put a different spin on it. Instead of listing my favourite songs I will highlight a few that caught my attention for one reason or another. 2010 has seen growth and maturity materialise in me and this has allowed me to appreciate things I never before would have done including music. Diversity is the keyword of 2010 in terms of where I’m at with music. The story continues after the cut.
Shoulda Woulda Coulda is back and this time I have decided to focus this week’s edition on the talents of one particular artist. I have put together three songs from talented entertainer Chris Brown that I feel could and would have been hugely successful. Two songs are tracks Chris appears as a guest feature and the other is indeed fully fledged Chris brown track. Check them out on the flipside.
I think I wrote the last Eargasms almost 3 weeks ago! It’s been a while and I’ve got a lot of good new music. Obviously only that tracks I like, the rest have been placed in the recycle bin. I’ll kick start this week’s post with a track off Step Up 3D by Trey Songz, you know what to do.
The video is dope. The song is definitely a grower; I didn’t like it at first but now after a few plays of the video, I’m hooked. Chris Brown’s dancing kills it as always and I just love the way it is shot in B&W; the tattoos and the dancing in the tunnel look ill. I’ll add their mixtape to this week’s Eargasms post, it’s surprisingly good. More videos like this please, less of the typical sh*t. Video on the flipside.
