"I can't watch the Mo'Nique show cuz she yell too much!" <<<<<<< Haaaaa same thing I said. It's funny I was just thinking about what Skillz was going to rap about this year. Here he is again, not missing a beat from music to pop culture to the government.
According to Tweet's Twitter, she woke up to find "Love Again" leaked this morning. Supposedly the first single from her upcoming album, the song was going to be released on iTunes late last week. I'm glad and disappointed about the leak, because this could slow up her release once again. The project Love Tweet has been rumored to be dropping for years. However, leaks and fake people in her camp (I'm guessing) have hindered that until 2010. The upside of it all is that Missy and Timbaland will be taking over...that's going to be thee bizzness! GO!
We can never get enough of these guys. Watch and learn. Ooohhh and as far as the mohawk..Jack Davey beeeeeenn doin this!!

Victor Duplaix: Electric Love (Nicolay Remix)
Sooooo I be Listenin to Pandora ennnnn they be puttin on folks dat I beee grooovin toooo......Yeah. So my J*Davey radio on Pandora always plays this dude Victor Duplaix and surprisingly, I never skip over his songs when they come on. It's the soulful/electric genre that is myyyy kind of music. Nicolay, a producer and member of the group Foreign Exchange remixed Duplaix's new single and it's pretty jazzy. Check it out!
Missy Elliot X Lil Wayne: All 4 U (rough ROUGH draft)
New Missy!.....and we thought "Best Best" was the introduction to a new album. Let's see where this one goes! GO! Warning this version is incomplete, but it's something. P.S. I'm tired of Lil Wayne HIGH KEY!
A minute ago I interviewed Andrew of Miike Snow.....he's an opinionated guy for sure. Anyway the other two producers of the group are from Sweden and the lead singer reps NY. The producers Bloodshy & Avant have made all types of electric eclectic remixes for everyone from Spears to Minogue. Anyway the difference is difference people.
Every X-mas can't be a holly jolly one. For those of you who like to keep it crunk, peep a song that our boy Gorilla Zoe released last year as a way to celebrate the holidays in a "different" way. "Jingle Bling, Jingle Bling, my neck and my wrist just Jingle Bling!!" Merry X-mas and an uber-flux new year be safe people!!!
As promised the brand new mixtape/mistape from J*Davey dropped on this here X-mas day. These pair of musicians are so creative and multi-talented. Absolute craziness. It's short, but sweet which isn't a bad thing.....we all know J*Davey songs can be loonnnggg sometimes. Either way......I absolutely love their vibe and I hope more people will be exposed to their music through this project. Go! Happy Holidays!!!!
This video in my opinion is really good. Most of Amerie's video's are people are just sleep on them. Hopefully this one will make it to 106 and help her album sales...Go Amerie!!

Sia: You've Changed Video
WHO IS THAT?! I know you're wondering, but remember we're uber flux. Anyway, how cool is this? Videos are coming back.........I predict. Anyway check out Australian pop singer Sia's remake of Lauren Flax's "You've Changed." The video looks like it was a lot of fun to make!
A collaboration between these two never fails to please. "Know What I Mean" is one of many dope track off of Freeway and Jake One's upcoming compilation The Stimulus Package set to hit racks February 16th. Hopefully people pay attention this time.

JBIII: The Beauty Created Remixed
A year a some days after The Beauty Created was released, JBIII decided to celebrate by compiling remixes of songs that various producers have put together. I knew it wouldn't be long...the songs are pretty dope even though there's a few repeats. Nonetheless all of them are different and for those who thought The Beauty Created couldn't get any better..well this kinda counts. My favorite is "Chanel (Daru) Remix."
This dude has been on twitter harder than he's been in the studio. Well that's a long guess, but it's been a minute. Anyway DC Representer Tabi Bonney presentttssss "Duhh" cool video.

J Wess X Future X Frank X Richlo: Bars for Days
Check out the brand new video "Bars for Days" directed by Max Hliva it's craaaaaazzeeee. I heart Brooklyn boys. Who does it better? Exactly. Listen when you watch this people.
This is officially my new favorite 50 song. Contrary to belief Before I Self Destruct was actually a solid CD. 50 just was too busy doing business things and forgot to stay connected with his fans this time around. Welp it's still at the store so whattareugonnadoooo??!!!

DJ Class: Party Crackin
Don't worry about the picture...it is what it is. Okay, DJ Class. We all remember the "I'm the ish" jaunt. Kanye or Mr. West should I say killed it and it was a wrap from there. However, this track "Party Crackin" sounds like DJ Class is trying to crossover. They left club Miami and went across the street to Circa or club Blush or Delish (he went to ANY club that wasn't hood!). Then after he left club Tilt he got right on the Venga Bus!! Techno-Hop = Not okay. Either way it's your ears that approve or disapprove.
Yea right!..Yep that's what I said too. That little sleepover with all of his counterparts does Diggy no justice in convincing the hip-hop heads that his tape is official. BUT after the sleepover we didn't see those "classmates" again. Instead we saw Pharrell acting as his mentor through google ichat. What's more official than that? Also the producers that he got for the project went in. Karina Pasian and Lil Twist are amongst the features. For a first times project The First Flight does a great job of fooling the listeners. Up and coming Star trak runner? I think so.
This mixtape is not what I expected. Kid Cudi's dude is nice. The Cleveland show is a mix of oddities pertaining to sound if you will. The lyrical content on this tape is not what it is. Extraordinary? Not even. However, the mixtape is basically a run down of his life in Cleveland. On top of that the beats are funky. Although there's no features from Scotti, he mentions him like 85 times. Take a gander!
Yeah, it's been a minute, but the song of the hour tells y'all that I'm alive. School. That's right school. It will make you believe that someone killed over, but guess what Uberflux will be back in effect starting NOW!

Tay Dizm X Shawnna: Point Em Out
Hey! This goes.....it's no surprise because Shawnna never fails to disappoint. You might not recognize Tay Dizm off jump, but think back to the "Beam Me Up" joint that was out last year. "I said my Chevy sit so high up from the floor, I feel Like I'm an alien or a UFO I go ooohhhh weee oouuhhh BEAM ME UP." Yerrrp. Pretty Much. Anyway, he's back with a new one that is just as hard. Check it out.
B.o.B. is my kind of guy. He's laid back, but gets crunk when the time is right. I really like his flow it reminds me of a cross between Cee-lo and Big Boi very dope, very dope. Check out the interview I did with him back in October for HipHopRuckus.com. Peep the new track "Nothin On You" featuring Bruno Mars.
Yoooooo when the beat started I just knew that Brandy was gonna kill the vocals. She did a little bit, but more than anything she was rappin! AND going IN. Man its crazy. First Missy had Monica rapping then Mary brought out Brooklyn and now Brandy is here with her alter ego Bran'Nu. Shock Value II is being leaked all over the place and it's a shame because itz eaazzyyyyyy. Both of the songs are a good look for Brandy, but I'm still trying to hear the follow-up to Human. Listen to the tracks, but also be sure to support the man...and the woman!
I'm not one to GAS about the obvious commercial stuff, but this song is REALLY cute. Polow switched it up and put a little scottish melody on the beat for your listening pleasure. The last time I heard a beat similar to this was Kelis's "Like You." Nonetheless, it's fresh. No word what album or whatever it's from.
