Chris Brown - Turn Up The Music [Music Video]

Chris Brown has been stirring up controversy all week, from douchey Twitter rants to the confirmed rumor that he is the one licking the icing off on Rihanna's upcoming single "Birthday Cake." With everything going on, it's easy to forget that his album Fortune is on the way.  As a reminder, watch his brand new video for "Turn Up The Music" below, which features some trippy Donnie Darko-esque characters and some amazing dance scenes.

Gangstas Use Emoticons Radio, Vol. 16: Meet Glass!

A LOT has changed since I dropped Gangstas Use Emoticons Radio, Vol. 15 in January.  The site has grown tremendously and the most noticeable changes are the brand new logo, layout and mascot.  You've probably already noticed him/her already, but consider GUE Radio, Vol. 16 an introduction to Glass, The Gangsta Emoticon.

Gangstas Use Emoticons Radio, Vol. 16 features much of the new music posted on the site within the past month, and like I always say, this one is my best mix yet.  With a diverse selection of artists ranging from Big K.R.I.T. to Azealia Banks and Meek Mill to M.I.A., I think you'll really enjoy this one.

David Banner ft. Chris Brown & A$AP Rocky - Yao Ming (Remix)

David Banner is giving "Yao Ming" another go with the remix, which features verses from Chris Brown and A$AP Rocky.  I thought the original would take off, but I haven't heard it anywhere, but I'm guessing this version will do more damage. Banner's Sex, Drugs, & Video Games mixtape is coming soon!

Chris Brown is going for a similar sound to "Yeah 3x" and "Beautiful People" that gave him international success on this new single "Turn Up The Music."  Check out Fortune's official second single below, and let me know if you think Breezy has a hit on his hands!

Roo~Oop!

Frequent collaborators Chris Brown and K-Mac are at it again on their new track "Mona Lisa" that takes the same subject matter from "Strip" but adds a little more imagery with lines like "All this money drippin' on you like paint on the Mona Lisa." How artistic.

From the looks of it, I don't think this will make the cut on Fortune, but I'm sure it'll get plenty of play.  Get used to hearing it mixed in with "Rack City!"

It may be a winter wonderland where you are, but where Fat Joe and Chris Brown are it's tropical and filled with gorgeous women. I guess since Crack lost all this weight, he's ready to show off his beach body! Just kidding. Check out the "Another Round" visuals below!

This Chris Brown x Teyana Taylor hit the net a month ago, but now we have the final version of "Push Me Up." This sounds like it'll be a leftover track, but that may be because I think it's a really generic song.  But I'll let you check it out below be the judge!

New Music: Chris Brown ft. Asher Roth - Complicated

When I saw this song title, the first thing I thought about was Avril Lavigne.  After the song finished, I was still thinking of Avril Lavigne. Why? Take a listen.  Asher Roth's verse makes the song a little better, but I'm not too convinced that this will make the cut on Chris Brown's upcoming album Fortune.
