Chris Brown Interview w/ MTV [VIDEO]
Saturday, November 7, 2009, 3:13 am
Filed under: Music News, Must Watch | Tags: , , , , , ,

And in related news, Chris Brown released the following statement in response to Rihanna’s upcoming 20/20 interview (which will most likely be the next post on PinBoard) saying:

“While I respect Rihanna’s right to discuss the specific events of February 8, I maintain my position that all of the details should remain a private matter between us,” he said in the statement. “I do appreciate her support and wish her the best. I am extremely sorry for what I did, and I accept accountability for my actions. At this point, I am taking the proper steps to learn about me and grow from my mistakes. I only hope that others in similar situations can learn from our experience as well. Abuse of any kind is always wrong. The rest I leave it to God”

Chris is clearly worried about the interview, and I guess, he kinda should be. I’m not saying that because he deserves to be, I’m saying that because Rihanna is being extremely candid in her interview and has pretty much discussed it all. I really do respect Rihanna for being so honest, I also admire the fact that she realises she’s setting a very big and important example to young girls around the world. Having said that, playing devils advocate, while I will never agree with or sympathise with what Chris Brown did, I do feel that many young men can learn a lot from his actions. I don’t know, I’m just trying to see the little silver lining in this horrible situation.

The Rihanna interview will be up soon as it’s available. Keep it locked.

But I’m very interested to know what YOU think of all this now? What’s your thoughts on Chris’ interview? And how do you feel about Rihanna’s upcoming interview? Let’s have a discussion…!

Peace, Love & Chris Brown

P.s I do hope after Rih-Rih’s interview, all this is finally closed. For everyones sake (including ours!)

We posted a radio rip of this song waaay back September (late comers sit down), but thought I’d re-up with the CDQ version. Not only because I hate radio rips, but because I’m aware many are still sleeping on this enormous track. Crookers merrrrk that beat and Kelis does her damn thing over it…

Crookers Feat Kelis – “No Security”

This track is too big to ignore! Hop on board, turn your speakers/headphones way up and enjoy this. Kelis doing dub-step? Yesssssiiirrr!

“Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time” [Trailer]

Yea…I’m not too convinced about this one. Big fan of the games, fan of Jake Gyllenhaal’s too, but that faux British accent is not happening homie.

I mean, I’m a sucker for these types of movies – to me, action is action, but I just reckon they could have cast someone else to do this film. Dunno who, but not sure about Gyllenhaal in this role. He’s a dope actor of course, dunno, maybe it’s just me.

Peace, Love & Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

P.s Oh yea, and why  the f*ck would anyone from ‘Persia’ have a British accent anyways?

I don’t usually like posting snippets, but I really like the sound of this new AKeys track…

Alicia Keys – “Dreaming”

To me, this sounds like something that could have been on her first two albums. I’ve always been a fan of Keys’ and will remain so, she’s one of the most talented artists we have, but I can’t deny the fact that her past couple albums have left me wanting a lot more. This sounds real nice and hopefully is an indication of where she’s going on The Element of Freedom.

Peace, Love & Alicia Keys

mtvemaberlin1

The MTV Europe Music Awards take place tonight in Berlin, hosted by Katy Perry the this years show will see performances from Jay-Z, Beyonce, Leona Lewis, Shakira and more.

I’ve always found the MTV EMA’s a little hit and miss, but regiliously watch it. UK peeps can watch it on MTV UK from 9pm, folks from the US can watch it HERE.

As with all the big award ceromies, PinBoard will be updating this post with all the very latest performances and surprises. So, keep it locked right here for all that good stuff!

…Thankfully this one’s in our time zone!

Host Katy Perry Opens the Show

Beyonce – “Sweet Dreams”

Will re-up with better quality video in a bit. Done.

Hmmmm…You know I love Bey, and yea, she definitely did her damn thing, but it all seems a little anti-climatic. Seemed like there needed to be something else at the end. Her voice is killer though as standard.

Jay-Z – “Empire State of Mind”

Shakira – “Did It Again”

Leona Lewis – “Happy”

Michael Jackson Tribute

Beyonce Thanks Jay-Z For ‘Putting a Ring On It’
