Ari Lennox – “Night Drive” (Video)
September 28, 2017
What in “The Grudge” is going on in this “Night Drive” visual? Definitely an eerie Tim Burtony vibe to this vid. But focus maaaan! Ari Lennox is rolling with Dreamville, as in J. Cole’s crew. Nobody but the dopest can fly that flag. Plus, speaking of fly… doesn’t Ari cut quite the sexy silhouette as she is moving and cooing so silky smoothly?

Jhené Aiko’s Short Film “Trip†(Video)
September 25, 2017
We posted the teaser on here. Now it’s time for the full-length short film. This is “Trip.”
Stirring.
‘Penny’ and her late bro (Miyagi) had to have the most unreal bond. The movie above about that is one thing. But the raw confession audio after the jump though… DO NOT MISS THAT!
Western History Vs. African History (Video)
September 24, 2017
Hmmm… How deep can deep get? Africans did not even see themselves as Africans, or being tied to the African continent… and even the name “Africa” is derivative of what Westerners / Europeans imposed. Watch Dr. John Henrik Clarke drop serious science and knowledge on that, and more, above.
An analysis of the history of Africa as compared to Western civilization. European scholars asserted that the so-called ‘Egyptians’ were non-African until C. Diop’s melanin pigmentation test on Pharaohs proved otherwise.

A teaser for a video short film that teases an upcoming album. Welcome to 21st-century music release strategy. But hey, it doesn’t have to make a lot of sense, as long as Jhené Aiko is in it being so cute that you sigh involuntarily. Pure science… FACTS!
Check out the teaser for “Trip” above.
R&B: Victor Oladipo – “Song For Youâ€
September 15, 2017
Whaaaat? Okay, basketball players have been trying to get into the rap game for decades. And at least recently, a couple have put out some decent off-court, on-mic work. But a b-baller doing R&B? Nah, you have not heard that… yet. But Victor Oladipo (V.O.), how are you coming out of the gate singing a Donny Hathaway jam maaaaan. You trying to be a R&Baller all o’ sudden? Ha!
(Not bad actually. Click and listen for yourself.)

R&B/Soul: Skye Morales – “New One” (Video)
September 14, 2017
Smooth and mellow melancholy musings about what dude lost… If there is any truth to some dude losing Sky Morales to a “New One”… maaan, you’re an idiot. She is mos def a cutie with some skills that are going to pay some bills. Plus, it’s fall. If you gotta be cuffed down for the cold weather Netflix-and-chill, staying with Skye would be a hot deal!
Jorja Smith – “On My Mind” (Prod. By Preditah) [Video]
September 12, 2017
Jorja Smith & Preditah with some UK club jamming dance tunes. Jorja’s gotta tell you about what’s “On My Mind” (um… her mind). Letting it ooze out over the Preditah-produced groove, with soul, and some bop. Nice stuff.
But let her friends tell it: It’s a bit too singy. *Sigh* Haters. Baahahaaa!
R&B/Soul: Jayd Ink – “DarkSkin” (Video)
September 8, 2017
That bathtub water probably tastes like the sweetest mocha latte ever… at least, looking lustfully at this dreamy coffee-n-creamy video it would seem. Jayd Ink dropped off visuals for her “DarkSkin” – no doubt to whet appetites enough to listen and go get that download. And yeah, we linked that below. You know, just in case.

Just search ‘Kevin Hart‘ on here and you will have ’nuff proof of how Kevin uses a vehicle as a lethal comedic weapon: He KILLS in cars! You will die laughing when you see this one, too. Did one with Lyft. Now back doing an undercover prank, but for Uber. The victim passenger this time Trey Songz (and a very cute friend).

R&B: The-Dream – “Summer Body” feat. Fabolous (Video)
August 30, 2017
Somebody should be using this joint for an Eye Candy video. Just a great idea. “She got that perfect waist… 26 with a phat azz…”
Nice. So nice! That “Summer Body” just might make The-Dream (and Fabolous) faithful. His words. Hahaa!
Miguel – “Sky Walker” feat. Travis Scott (Video)
August 29, 2017
Luke Skywalking on these haters (ha!)… and riding the hell out of this bassy rumble bounce track. Good dance, trap-adjacent, rap-n-b type feel to this. Feel it. Nice energy to the vid. Watch it.
(Bonus: An exotic mix of Honeyz in here!)
World Music/R&B: Switt – “Aléa Mba” (Video)
August 29, 2017
Oh, say “Aléa Mba” like ‘Ollie-Um-Bye-Yay.’ So much flavor put down by Switt in his official video for the single off his “Pieces Of Me” project (out now).
“Aléa Mba” depicts a young man who happily ends up proposing to his longtime girlfriend. On this one, Switt uses his soulful voice to tackle the issue of commitment in our modern day relationships.

Learn more about Switt after the jump; after you click play a few times. Great stuff!
(Oh, and a quick Google of the phrase “Alea Mba” revealed a translation: “Hold me down.” Now, click play again.)

August 21, 2017
The homie Rasta Roooot! Dude went across the spectrum, up & down the music levels, and swept the corners out the club for this mix! J.I.D. to Jill Scott… with some Thundercat, Kaytranada, Syd, Tank And The Bangas, Too $hort, and even Migos in here. Definitely a trip. A hip trip cued up for you to enjoy.

August 20, 2017
I don’t wanna play this game of chess anymore.
‘Cause everyone knows when your queen is gone you don’t last long.
Yeah, ATLien and Bad Boy alum act 112 is back at it again. Just a tick faster than a true slow jam, but bet money you and bae can sway to this close together today. Play “Dangerous Games” over and over. And enjoy!
Chantè Moore – “Something To Remember” (Video)
August 20, 2017
Your pleasure is my only mission…
If imagining Chantè Moore say that to you doesn’t make your day (hell, your LIFE), I don’t know if there is a way to make you enjoy this “Something To Remember” video from her. Easily the HOTTEST thing said by arguably one of the HOTTEST women still doing her thing in R&B. Whew!
Lex Boogie From The Bronx – “Bad Gal RiRi Live From Lexington Station”
August 14, 2017
Just being creative and decided to do something the ladies might enjoy.
Reeeespect to Lex Boogie From The Bronx for always keeping up looped in with exclusives like this. Nice airy chant style music to this RiRi mix. Vibe, dance, whatever to this.

R&B: Ne-Yo – “Another Love Song†(Video)
August 4, 2017
Dope visuals for that single “Another Love Song†from Ne-Yo that we posted a while back. Incredible Eye Candies and dance moves in this. Cameo or two. Fun to watch.
(His date plays the ‘pretty AND petty’ perfectly in this, too. Did you take one of my berries? Hahaaa!)
