Eye Candy: Sincerely Ward (Video)
August 9, 2012
Mm mm mmph! Claude Hammercy! This woman, Sincerely Ward, is so damn HOT! Now, of course, we don’t post bucket nekkid videos here, but behind the scenes at a lingerie photo shoot is close enough, right? Trust me. I have saved your job once again possibly (NSFW = Not Safe For Work). You may not get fired for watching lingerie video at work…then again you might…and Sincerely Ward might be worth the risk. But instead of risking it, why don’t you just, um, take a break, and go to some special tucked away area…where you can be alone with Ms. Ward. When you get there, click the “Read the rest…” link and watch and… you’re welcome! More video below….

Rick Ross Surprised by Hip-Hop Idol Eric B. on MTV ‘RapFix Live’ (Video)
August 9, 2012
Imagine meeting your childhood idol. Now, imagine getting a chance to sit down, talk with, and give praise to your idol. NOW, imagine your idol giving you praise right back! Maaaannnn, look at Rick Ross in this video. You could’ve knocked him over with a feather. That’s alright. That’s how it is supposed to be in the True School. Shared respect between the old and new schoolers. Feel the love as you watch Eric B. and Rick Ross interact on Sway’s show ‘RapFix Live’. Incredible! Lots of wisdom dropped in this piece, too.

K’naan – “Hurt Me Tomorrow” (Video)
August 9, 2012
Somali born emcee & the troubadour himself, K’naan, delivers a colorful new video for “Hurt Me Tomorrow”. The song is further in the direction of the R&B, Pop, or World Music lane than the earlier days when we had K’naan on the Beatz & Lyrics Show years ago. It’s not surprising though considering the Toronto based emcee is now considered to be an international hip hop star. Although he’s a bigger international name these days I made a small observation of him not wearing any shoes in this new video that appears to signify that K’naan hasn’t forgotten his roots & the memorable alias he used coming up as the ‘Dusty Foot Philosopher’. Having collaborated with artists like Nas, Nelly Furtado, David Guetta, Wale, & touring with guys like Lenny Kravitz I’m positive his feet are a lot less dusty financially although K’naan still drops his good life philosophies within his music.

Pac Div – “Gimme What You Got”
August 9, 2012
Warning: If you are going to even touch a Pete Rock and CL Smooth classic like “Take You There”… DO IT RIGHT! Confession: Pac Div (short for Pacific Division) did it RIGHT! The Southern Cali rap collective (brothers Like and Mibbs, and long-time friend BeYoung) used the same beat and took it there. Very nice. Check out “Gimme What You Got” for yourself right here.

So, take a break. Go somewhere “safe.” Then click the “Read the rest…” link and watch “Curves at the Palace”… featuring the THICKNESS!
