Seal covers Otis Redding
For those old enough to remember, Seal’s cover of Otis Redding’s “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long” is a welcome reminder of the sweet Soul music you used to listen to on the transistor radio. Props to SoulBounce for the video.

During his concert at HMH in Amsterdam, a fan blesses M with ‘the panties’. I’m assuming she didn’t just take those off…

Maxwell performs “This Woman’s Work” live in Cali
Maxwell performs “This Woman’s Work” at the 2008 Holly-Rod Foundation Event in Malibu CA.
Maxwell is killin’ me softly. I swear. He’s got the clearest falsetto (and the sexiest, most sincere grin) in the industry. Plus he’s refreshingly humble. Brutha ain’t bad to look at, either.
Check girlfriend makin’ it rain on the M at around 2:04. And listen to ”Pretty Wings” (snippet), from his upcoming album - “Black Summers Night” after the jump…

Video - Yung Berg “Put It On Me”
The Time: a LONG time ago. The Place: a beauty salon on the Avenue of Fashion, where I used to do hair. The Setting: Three days before Christmas. The Situation: some random guy tried to snatch my MCM logo clutch, and when I snatched it back he socked me in the jaw, knocked me on the floor, and stole my purse anyway. The joke was on him - the bag was fake, and there was only 80 cents in it! My cash, ID, and credit cards were all in my jeans pocket. *Whew! That damn MCM logo shirt YB’s wearing is making me have flashbacks*
Now, about the song/video: I really try not to talk bad about folk, but Huey\Dewey\Louie *you decide. i can’t* needs to stop rapping about things he has no knowledge of - given his jr. high school student status, and all. His mama needs to wash his mouth out with some Ivory soap. Actually - the song’s not bad. It’s just that Yung Berg is such a lil’ punk…

King back…
T.I.’s “Paper Trail” is #1 on the Billboard 200, having sold 568,000 copies in first-week (U.S.) sales - making “Paper Trail” Tip’s third album (King, and T.I. vs.T.I.P. are the other two) to reach the top spot. If that’s not enough - Tip broke his own record when “Live Your Life” ft. Rihanna jumped from #80 to #1 on the Hot 100 chart. It’s been a very good week for the King…
Congratulations, King! Keep laughin’ at the haters. Oh, and pics from Tip’s CD signing in Detroit after the jump…
