The video above is of the interview Chris did with radio host Angie Martinez. The interview marks Brown’s first radio interview and apparently the last time he’ll speak publicly about the ‘situation’. It’s a real good interview, very insightful and well conducted. Part 2 & 3 of the interview is under the cut.

…Now, the track below will be released as a double single with “I’ll Transform Ya” (think Beyonce “If I Were A Boy”/”Single Ladies”)…

Chris Brown – “Crawl”

Eh, it’s not all that. It’s kinda boring actually. It’s not terrible, but not something I’d really check for either. I’m still bumpin’ that “I’ll Transform Ya” though – now that’s a big tune. Dude needs to come hard than this.

Peace, Love & Chris Brown

P.s In other, other Chris Brown news – he’ll be appearing on the cover of Vibe Magazine – the first issue since the magazine closed and re-opened.

Always happy when a new Mickey Factz track drops…

Mickey Factz – “Fuck Your Show” (Prod By Precize)

See why I get excited? The dudes flow doesn’t let up. Yet another big track to drop him Factz – Precize is doing big things on the production here too. Niiiiice.

For those lucky enough to live in the NYC area, hit the jump to check the flyer of Mickey’s upcoming show at the Highroom Ballroom, along side Jade (ya’ll know we love her), Melo-X and others.

Peace, Love & Mickey Factz

Unsure if this is a new track that will be appearing on The Game’s forthcoming album The R.E.D or whether it’s just an unreleased/buzz track – either way, it’s that new-new…

The Game – “Heaven”

What you sayin? Drop us a line in the comment section.

Peace, Love & The Game

She’s looking hot.

It’s being reported that Rihanna will also be doing a sit down interview with Diane Sawyer, which will mark her first interview since the ‘incident’ with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown. Can’t wait to hear her side of the story, I actually commend her for staying so silent about it.

We await the video for “Russian Roulette” and of course, that new album Rated R.

Peace, Love & Rihanna

88 Keys expresses his love for the TV show we all love to hate – “Lost”…

88 Keys – “Baggage Claim”

Dudes love the show runs deep huh? Haha! I can’t lie, I’ve watched every episode of “Lost” and like many, I often question myself about doing so. It’s a shit/great show.

Lyrics after the jump…

Peace, Love & 88 Keys

A new Ryan Leslie track just surfaced on the TinterNets. The track, taken from his upcoming album Transition is called “I Choose You” and shows a more subdued Leslie…

Ryan Leslie – “I Choose You”

It’s a nice song actually. While I can’t argue that Ryan Leslie is one of the most talented musician/producers we have, I’ve always questioned his vocal ability. I guess it comes down to a preference thing in the end and while I still don’t love his voice – on this track he sounds real cool. It’s clearly a heartfelt track, one which I  think will fit in nicely on an album. I’m looking forward to the new album still.

Mariah Carey performed a special ‘Stripped’ set for Power 105/1 in NYC last week. She performed some a couple classic tracks, as well as a few new ones. Check her out singing “Always Be My Baby”, “We Belong Together” and “H.A.T.E.U”…

“H.A.T.E.U”

Now see, this is cool. Mariah Carey singing the songs that made her the superstar she is today. Hearing her sing “Always Be My Baby” was so refreshing. Now I know the stans/lambs out there will aggressively disagree but you cannot tell me songs like “H.A.T.E.U” stand up next to those songs of the 90′s/early 00′s. They just don’t. Forget that it’s ‘Mariah’ for a minute and just listen to the songs.

Either way, great performances all round – was very impressed!

Peace, Love & Mariah Carey
