4 Intimate Nights With Beyoncé: Behind The Scenes



I was hating hard when I saw some of my friends tweet that they were at Beyoncé's up close and personal concert a few weeks ago.  I am no longer salty, and I want to share two behind the scenes videos with my Gangstas Use Emoticons fam.

Watch Part 1 above, and hit the jump to catch Part 2 of the behind the scenes footage.

Smoke DZA's Rolling Stoned Is Out Now!!


I know I've been hyping up September 27th as the biggest album release date this year, but that doesn't mean I'm not excited about other projects dropping.  I've been excited for Smoke Dza's Rolling Stoned to drop, and now it's finally available on iTunes.  I'm definitely copping this and getting familiar with it in preparation for Atlanta's A3C Festival in October.

For those of you who don't know exactly what Smoke Dza is about, peep the tracklisting after the jump, and listen to the tracks that have been already been released.

Next Up: Jessie J


Last night on the MTV Video Music Awards, there was a house singer who performed whenever the awards went to commercial break, and let me tell you this!  This woman was SANGIN'!!!! I remembered seeing her on SNL a while back, but I didn't really know too much about the British singer known as Jessie J.  After her vocal performance at the awards, I had to know more.

This 23 year old and classmate of Adele first gained fame as a songwriter for artists like Miley Cyrus and Chris Brown.  With a voice like hers, however, performing for millions was her destiny.  Her album Who You Are was released in the U.S. on April 12, 2011 and has garnered two top three singles and platinum certification in the U.K.

Get a taste of Jessie J's music below:

This was probably the best moment of the night. Twitter and the media were already buzzing when she posed and announced her pregnancy on theVMA red carpet.  When she performed my anthem of joy "Love On Top," I lost it.  Watch below and see her and Jay-Z celebrate their new found joy in front of the world. Congratulations to them both.
