Cee-Lo Green Is Catching ‘Bodies’ With His New Movie Trailer
February 3, 2011
One of the standout tracks on Cee-Lo Green’s ‘Lady Killer’ album is a song called ‘Bodies’ produced by Salaam Remi. This trailer dropped a day or two ago which suggests it’s an upcoming movie featuring Kerry Washinton & Janelle Monae. I seriously doubt it’s a full length movie, but I assume it will be more of a epically cinematic video similar to the one Cee Lo dropped for ‘Bright Lights, Bigger City’. Not only did I enjoy the song, but I enjoyed the look & feel of the video for that one. In case you missed the video for ‘Bright Lights, Bigger City’ I’ve included it after the jump….

Focus… – The Avant Garde Project Special Edition Mixtape
February 1, 2011
My homie ‘Focus…’ dropped his album ‘The Avant Garde Project’ in May of last year. Recently he dropped this ‘Special Edition’ Mixtape, but I’m not exactly sure what changes if any were made to it. Either way its still a dope ass project. My personal favorite song from this album is ‘The Vow’ on that R&B soul vibe. An extremely talented individual, Focus is arguably one of the illest producers that I know in the game. This project fully illustrates that ‘Focus…’ is more than just a hip hop producer having crafted soundscapes in a wide variety of musical genres. The Avant Garde Project touches upon his ability to weave in & out of those genres rather seamlessly. Some producers just make beats, but ‘Focus’ can do it all from pop, rock, country, soul, & even latin. As a matter of fact Focus has won a Grammy in the Latin category. To preview, listen, or download the mixtape make sure you click on the artwork or the link below! Keep it bangin!

Jamiroquai – Lifeline (Video)
January 13, 2011
Jamiroquai’s music reminds me of a woman I used to date & some of those early experiences in Atlanta. Gotta check out the brothas Jamiroquai next time they step foot in Atlanta for a show. For now check out Jay Kay & the crew for the latest video for ‘Lifeline’ off the upcoming album ‘Rock Dust Light Star’.
Here’s a few of my past favorites from Jamiroquai that I consider to be personal classics….
