Bilal Talks Sophomore LP, Why He Was Never So-Called Neo-Soul
Bilal entered our hearts in 2000 with mellow grooves like “Soul Sista” and “Love It,” during a period when the phrase “Neo-Soul” was attached to any artist who had a jazzy, soulful or earthy vibe (and in most cases, they could actually sing without digital enhancement). His debut album, 1st Born Second, received rave reviews […]
The Femcee Files: Cdot The Catalyst Examines Nicki Minaj, Defines Herself
Cdot The Catalyst is a dope lyricist who I’ve been chatting with on Twitter and iChat since last year. She’s cool, uber smart, talented, and well, definitely under exposed.

G Life: Dinner With Tank (The R&B Singer)
I attended a nice dinner with R&B singer/songwriter Tank along with a few other journos and bloggers a couple of weeks ago, at a Chinese Restaurant called Chin Chin. We dined on good Chinese, as in, there was no General Tso’s or chicken wings and pork fried rice on the menu lol, and we chatted […]

What a beautiful message. I needed this. Thanks Maroon Dawta (and India Arie).
[Video] Nicki Minaj in ‘Your Love’
This is so much better than that “Massive Attack” disaster. Nicki Minaj – New Music – More Music Videos She looked really nice and I loved the Samurai theme. I chuckled at the melodramatic ending but Michael Jai White was definitely a nice touch. What people don’t realize is that Nicki Minaj is a true […]
