NEW MUSIC; KEYSHIA COLE - 'CONFUSED IN LOVE'

A new track has just surfaced from R&B singer Keyshia Cole by the name of 'Confused In Love' lifted from Cole's upcoming album 'Calling All hearts', the album is set to hit shelves on December 21st. Take a listen to the song below.


                          

Now as a fan of Keyshia's previous works, I'm literally shocked that I'm not liking anything that has surfaced from this era so far. I don't know what happened to the quality of music from her, but she sure needs to go find it again is she expects her fans to purchase her album this go around. Your thoughts?

NEW MUSIC; T.I - 'CASTLE WALLS' FT. CHRISTINA AGUILERA

The full version of  'Castle Walls' which off of T.I upcoming album 'No Mercy', the song features Christina Aguilera, and was also produced by Alex Da Kid. listen after the jump.

This song is a prime example of why I likes T.I so much because his music has more meaning the just money, cars and clothes, he talks about real life things and situations, don't get me wrong I know he does have music of that nature, but to many rappers don't release those deeper meaning tracks as singles. I also was surprised at the restraint that Christina showed in this is song, because god knows this women has a tendency to scream to the point where the veins in her neck are just about to explode at any given moment. What are your thoughts?

NEW MUSIC: DIRTY MONEY - 'ASS ON THE FLOOR' FT. SWIZZ BEATZ

This video was simple & very nicely put together, from the dynamic voices to the flashback photo's. Mariah has been singing for over twenty years now and for the first time ever she has sung with her mom and of course I was in vocal bliss, from Mariah's high notes to the opera stylings of Patricia. But enough of me stanning already (sorry can't help it lol) check out the video right below.

NICKI MINAJ "MY TIME NOW"

Mtv has given all of the Barbz & Kenz a inside look into female rapper Nicki Minaj's life in front & behind the camera with the tv special "My Time Now". 

In the Mtv documentary Ms. Minaj expresses some of her deep thoughts growing up in her home country of Trinidad & losing her grandmother. When she moved to New York from Trinidad she said that she thought her home would be like a castle with a white picket fence like something out of a fairytale, but when she got there it was the complete opposite then when she imagined it to be. She also expresses how she doesn't want to be a failure, but judging by what I see on tv, hear on the radio & read on Twitter she is a very successful music artist with a lot of talent. 

 "When you start affecting lives, you have more of a responsibility, your no longer just doing it for you" - Nicki Minaj
