NEW MUSIC: Kanye West Debuts "New Slaves" and "Black Skinhead"



Kanye West has once again managed to distance his musical efforts from that of what we typically hear from his counterparts and unsurprisingly the music is great.

Kanye had a super packed weekend debuting his new song "New Slaves" on 66 buildings across the globe on Friday night as well as performing the track for the first time live last night on Saturday Night Live as well as another new punk rock'ish track titled "Black Skinhead".

Kanye is tackling some typically super sensitive conscious topics in hip hop like slavery, selling out, and even  interracial dating in his new tracks. Check out last night's SNL performance's as well as one broadcast of "New Slaves" in LA along with crowd reviews.

Is Kanye becoming an activist? Could it be the the birth of his child with a woman outside his race which may be triggering this expansion of his music?

Who knows, I love it. How about you?


Word on the street is, Kanye's sixth studio album will be dropping on June 18 as hinted and the new album will be titled Yeezus...if we're using Kim Kardashian as a source.

OLDIE BUT GOODIE: Angela Bassett and Tupac

I stumbled across this random photo of the late great rapper Tupac Shakur and Angela Bassett on Pinterest and just had to find out where it was from. It turns out this photo was taken at the premiere of Poetic Justice which starred Shakur and Janet Jackson but   there is no word on who the child in the photo is. And speaking of Angela Bassett...

VIDEO: Nas Performing "Daughters" + Album Release Party Pics

 Nas stopped by the Late Show With David Letterman last night to perform his new single "Daughters". I love the fact that Nas performed last night in and attended his album release party last night for his new album Life Is Good in the same outfit. None of that Hollywood fake shit here. The evening looked like nothing but fun with friends in attendance such as Chef Roble, Busta Rhymes and even a cheerful Jay Z all came out to support Nas on the release of his new album which hit stores today. Have a looksee!!

Awkward Spottings...

Image
Yesterday a few photos came out yesterday that were beyond the look and smile category. You had to look at them then ponder on them due to the subjects. Like..... Kobe and Vanessa Bryant were seen in Mykonos vacationing with their daughters. Let me first say the Bryant girls are adorable and follow that up with...anyone want any flapjacks? Kobe, go ahead and get Vanessa that mommy makeover...she may love you gain for it. Jaden Smith was spotted with a young beauty and she's not a Kardashian. She's cute...very cute. But ummmmmmmmm Jaden what you got on? Last but definitely not least, Earvin Johnson III and Lisa Raye were spotted dinning at the heavily pap populated Mr. Chow. Not only is this a rare pairing but why is EJ channeling NeNe Leakes ? From the outfit to the location this is all NeNe's steelo. Was I being polite by saying "awkward"?
