J. Cole ft. Missy Elliot - Nobody's Perfect [Music Video]

J. Cole's video just premiered on BET's 106 & Park, and I'm so glad that "Nobody's Perfect" got the visual treatment. Missy's a part of the song so of course you can't be rap alongside the queen of music videos without having some crazy effects. Cole World: The Sideline Story is out now!

Melanie Fiona - Gone (La Dada Di) ft. Snoop Dogg

Another offering from Melanie Fiona's The MF Life surfaces as the Canadian beauty sings a dark tale of losing her boyfriend on "Gone," which features the OG Snoop Dogg. This iTunes bonus cut will appear on the March 20th release of her sophomore LP, and I think it's definitely a good choice it's not a final cut for the album.
