Alicia does her thing on this cover of the #1 single by Blondie from 1980 “Rapture.” As you can hear from this song, the beat also incorporates portions of the Sex and the City theme song. There is a reason for that, this is her addition to the Sex and the...

Today I got the opportunity to participate in a blogger conference call with Common to discuss his upcoming starring role in the movie “Just Wright” and his hip hop career. I was on the call with about ten other bloggers who each had the opportunity ask a...

This is set to be released as the fourth single from Mary J’s “Strong With EachTear” album. Damn, it’s been four singles from this album already? Despite none of her singles really blowing up likes she’s capable of, the album has still...

Who says gangsta rappers don’t have a softer side? Believe it or not, Fat Joe is actually married and has been for years, though he might not show it. I will say though, Tony Sunshine really did his thing on this song, and songs like this make me wish even more...
