So Taio Cruz is set to release Rokstarr in North America which I am excited about and hope all my other Taio Cruz fans are as well. Any way, after doin a bit of digging and I believe these are the three tracks from the North American release that weren't part of the original release. I wouldd say enjoy, but I know you will.
Y'all need to pay attention to the first song, "Dynamite" which will reportedly be his next North American single.
and with a tip of my hat, I fade into the back..........................
Alright since it's the last of the month let's go out with a bang.
these are songs that I have posted from this month that I love. First we got MIA wit "XXXO"
3OH3 wit HEY ft. Lil Jon
Of course Tinie Tempah wit His tracks Frisky and Pass Out. Plus I added Chiddy Bang's The Truth.
So yeah just take a look back at some of my fave tracks from May

Y'all know how much I'm feeling Diggy Simmons right now. So I'm glad to see a video for something finally.
music that I've found in the last week. We got Kelis, a lot of Drake, Estelle. and some other stuff that I think you would enjoy especially a single from Kanye's next album: Good Ass Job
For a few years now Los Rakas have been getting some rotation on Latino music video channels like Mun2. Here's the link to the video for their biggest hit from way back in 2006 Mi Barrio. There music has always been hot, but it seems like they're blowing up more just recently. They're sounds mix classic Hiphop and Hyphy with oldschool Panamanian Reggaeton as well as newer styles from the Left Coast. Below is their video for Soy Raka which starts out with the duo walking up to a group of kids jerkin on the corner and making them cut that bullshit out. Below the video I put the audio for Abrazame their heavy Español remix of the much-remixed Hold Yuh by Gyptian, a track everybody should know by now and one thats probably going to be a Carribean crossover staple and heard in clubs everynight for years to come, like Turn Me On, Get Busy, or Dance Will Never Die
Has anyone heard about this? It's called HITLab and was "created" by Akon and Virgin Records.
Basically, you upload a song most likely your own and it tells you the likelihood that the song will be a hit based on stats and other data from the last 50+ years from Billboard Hot 100.
Sounds kinda fishy with the data and how they actually rate a song. But, it also sound like every unsigned artists dream. It's like an online version of MuchMusic's Disband
I dunno a jury is still out on this one
So... I'm here in Norman Manley International Airport, in Sunny, Sunny Jamaica, I'm really early so i'm really bored. I'm here thinking it would be a shame if I didn't post something, and since I went to Quad night club in JA and met reggae artist Tami Chin picture coming soon... I thought it fitting to post her new video with TIFA. Its called Certified Diva. I didn't see TIFA until the end so no pic with her.
Not something I would normally post but she doing her thing... check out Over and Over by Tami Chin and Spell It Out by TIFA both really good
The new album is out and it is streaming on her myspace. There are songs on it that sound like Grizzly Bear. GRIZZLY BEAR! Plus an of Montreal collaboration. http://www.myspace.com/janellemonae
And here's some Rainbow Arabia and an accompanying trailer for a movie that I need to rent.

Consider this a separate post as I created the last post at 6pm and didn't notice one of the player embed codes wasn't workin right until much later. any way I got a bunch of other stuff
Found this several hours ago, didn't feel like postin it right away cuz I noticed no one posts anything anymore except like 3 ppl and I figured if sum of us are postin EVERYTHING then there's not much else for others to post, so I figured I would try and let someone beat me to the punch, then I figured... fuck it. If they were gonna do anythin they would post whatever they wanted or even comment on the posts. Maybe not everyone has as much time right now, like they have 'real jobs' or sumthin.
ANYWAY....
We finally got a video for Dirty Money-Hello Good Morning. This one featuring T.I. and Rick Ross who is now officially managed by Bad Boy
I got a next one we all need to hear by Reflection Eternal this is their first single from their new album. The single is titled "Midnight Hour" and it features Estelle
This next one is from that tiny little and lovable Canadian girl Lights. Now I didn't think I was gonna ever post sumthin from her, but I really like it. This one is called "Second Go". It's kinda got this 80s vibe that you can't help but secretly like, especially if you were critical of aspects of the 80s (like Wham!, A-HA, Fine Young Cannibals
Oh I also heard some news from Canada's favourite alternative rapper K-Os has just finished shooting a music video for his track Zambony off of his album Exit. TRUST ME, THIS IS A PRETTY BOMB TRACK.
Next, I found out that the song Shutterbug by Big Boi is just about rapped up shooting for that music video so look out for that one aswell
All ain't really gotta like what I say, just know I'm not always afraid to say it.
Alright, I've said my piece, and with a tip of my hat, I fade into the back
Wednesday, May 12
Alright, Drake and K-Os jus finished most of their American tour and they had a bunch of people join them on the tour such as N.E.R.D. and a relatively new band called Francis and the Lights. October's Very Own has been postin on them for a bit. This is one that I found from them that I quite like.
Okay, now that that's out of the way I got a video from Alicia Keys-Unthinkable. I found the song wayh back when if you remember and told u it was gonna be dope
And I don't care whatever E-40 does, I'm prolly gonna like it.
Now, if you'll excuse me I am gonna go watch Lost on the internet.
I got a next one from Tinie tempah that I think is down right FIRE. Here we go Tinie Tempah ft. Labyrinth-Frisky
Oh boy, I got some more from Chiddy Bang. this one is straight bananas. we don't get a whole lot of Chiddy or stuff from the UK and Chiddy is actually signed to a British label. I find this track to be crazy fun it's off his mixtape The Swelly Express
i'm back wit sum
jumpoffs, remember, that Chiddy Bang track I posted last week? I forgot to mention that its actually a freestyle (which actually makes it less impressive) and the actual beat is from this grime artist I been hearin about called Tinie Tempah and I think he's starting to get noticed in North America. Isn't that like the 5th artist from the UK makin waves in the N. American market in the like last year? I think we have another British Invasion on our hands.
We Got Taio Cruz, Sugarbabes(again), VV Brown, Keane(always kinda been here), JLS(UK's answer to the boy band trend that is makin a comeback), Tinchy Stryder (who hasn't made a whole lot of waves)
So in case you haven't seen the video or heard of the artist I'm talkin about, now you can't say you have cuz here it is
and oh yeah, I saw this early last week and kinda liked it, and I'm not even a Jason Derulo fan. This one's called ridin Solo
Dj BoNeZ back at it again....my bad its been a hawttt minute since i've last posted...been busy with shiiit! made some new friends, some of you might know them; Sol Guy and K'naan are actually friends of mine now haha YE! anywho....all is well with me ;P
Soooooooo i heard this track awhile back called Billionaire by Travis McCoy of Gym class heroes and i LOVE IT!!!!!! so heres the video for it....Bruno Mars is the future of R&B oh and Travis does his thang!....my question to you is, what would you do if you were a billionaire?
peace out!!!
ps i would buy land on every country if i was a billionaire
I saw this v ideo on OnSmash. OnSmash had a Miley Cyrus video. I thought I was trippin balls or something. Then I saw the video and thought I really was trippin balls. This kid is clearly tryin to cut all ties wit Disney.
Iknow how ppl feel about Chris Brown right now, but this track is dope
Whether or not you have ever Watched the So You Think You Can dance series (Canadian or American) you'll prolly know Blake McGrath from somethin or other. Now, dude can dance, but I dunno about singin, This track is so heavy wit 808s that it sounds like a completely different person. Hav you ever heard of George or Justin Nozuka? Well that's what his voice sounds like in this. Not tryin to incinuate anything, but I'm just sayin he doesn't sound like himself.
Chiddy bang been makin moves for the last little bit, I heard the freestyle over that MGMT sample and thought, meh. This track called Pass Out is Niiice
