It’s unreleased, on the charts, and it’s good music…

Having exhausted all known adjectives that describe the sexiness that is Maxwell, I’ll just say Maxwell performed his latest single “Fistful of Tear” on the Jay Leno Show, 4/22/10. Here’s the video. Enjoy…

While I’m not a Wyclef Jean fan – due to some L-Boogie smack-talkin’ on his part – a sista loves her some Lauryn Hill! Here’s video of Lauryn performing Doo Wop (That Thing), Saturday, Jan. 23, at New Zealand’s Ragamuffin 2010 Reggae & Hip-Hop Festival. Aren’t we hoping this performance is the beginning of a comeback…

btw – video spotted here.

Solange covers the Dirty Projectors “Stillness is the move” over Erykah Badu’s “Bag Lady” track. I admit I have no clue who the Dirty Projectors are, but this track is NICE! And I’m not just sayin’ that because I’m a Solange stan…

Michael Jackson’s previously unreleased single “This is It” has made it’s online debut via MJ’s official website. The 2-disc album will be released in conjunction with the limited-run movie, which opens in theaters this month.

I haven’t listened to it yet, so – no opinion…

Happy Friday! Here’s a little mo’ Maxwell to get ya through the weekend…

SouljaBoy Tellem presents his new video for the NSFW song “Work”.

SouljaBoy’s lyrics are pure ignorance at it’s finest, but don’t you just love his little southern drawl?

I do !

Maxwell – “Bad Habits”

“Bad Habits” is the second single from Maxwell’s upcoming release – “BlackSummersNight”,  and is available on iTunes.

 ”The Way You Want It”

“The Way You Want It” is said to be a leak from the “ATLiens” mixtape, and I’m hoping it’ll be featured on “Paper Trail:Case Closed”.

IMO, Tip has never sounded better (but I always say that about him, don’t I?) as he addresses his court case, going to prison, and faith in God – not man.

He also addresses his baby momma LaShon, and their recent child support case. Basically telling her if she doesn’t want to be poor she needs to get a job! And she should quit being mad that they’re not “doing it” anymore. 

This isn’t the first time Tip’s dedicated a verse to her. He also addressed her in TrapMuzik’s “I Still Luv You” – but he was a whole lot nicer about it back then – saying “I gotta love you to keep from killing you, shawty”.

Guess he just figured he’d get it all out of his system this time around…

Speaking of Trey – since his ‘you know’ is so big, he just went on ahead and “Invented Sex” for y’all.
