Check out T.I.’s newest video for “Live Your LIfe” featuring Rihanna. ?This video has a whole lot going on. I’ve watched it several times and I see something different each time. Like the P$C disc in the briefcase, the reference to T.I. vs. Tip, Rihanna as a cabaret singer, the dudes beating up Tip in the alley (I’m not gonna lie, I almost thought Jeezy had made a cameo til I looked again!) ?I’m sure this video is telling some sort of story but me and my fried brain cells just can’t get it right now. ? Help me out…

Video ~ “Beep” ~ Bobby Valentino ft. Yung Joc
Bobby Valentino, the “Lil Shawty from Atlanta”?(his words not mine 😆 ), finally dropped the video for “Beep”. The song features Yung Joc and the video is packed with ATL cameos like Rocko, DJ Drama, Sean Garrett & Lloyd. ?I think I even saw Shay “Buckeey” Johnson from Flavor of Love sitting on the couch. ?
Bankhead Beef Continues ~…And You Thought It Was Over!
I can’t call it you guys. ?I thought the battle over Bankhead was over, but it appears it was just simmering.?”Don’t I” a new song by some dude I’ve never heard of (Stuntman) featuring Shawty Lo is apparently a T.I. diss track aimed at?Yung L.A.’s “Ain’t I“. ? The first time I heard “Ain’t I” I thought it sounded way too much like Shawty Lo to be a coincidence but who am I? ?All I know is…this ish could go on forever! If you desire to add this to your Bankhead beats collection, the download link is under the cut (don’t ever say I don’t give you anything!): Continue Reading…
“Swagger Like Us (Remix)” ~ The Girls Club
The Girls Club ~ Mika Means, D. Woods and Shanell (aka SNL) ~ have put a female spin on T.I.’s “Swagger Like Us“. ? I caught up with these three at Ludacris’ New Era Celebration?and we crossed paths several times last weekend as we all were hitting up parties throughout the “A” (yes that’s me throwin it up in the pic above). I think the song is hott and the verses are on fire…but don’t look for an album from this girl group any time soon.??Mika Means is a force in her own right and has been on the music scene in Atlanta for a minute and Shanell (D. Woods sister) is a talented songwriter and coreographer. ?D. Woods also states that after her departure from Danity Kane, she is not looking to join another girl group and is currently planning her solo career. ?So, there you have it. ?Three talented solo artists with a ton of swagger who simply collaberated on a remix. ?
Check it out under the cut as well as a few flix of my *cough* inaugeration into the Girls Club: Continue Reading…
Behind the Scenes Video ~ “So Paid” ~ Akon, Lil Wayne & Jeezy
Check out this behind the scenes video of Akon, Lil Wayne and Jeezy during the “So Paid” video shoot. I think the song is?braggadocios, especially when there are tons of people losing their jobs…but oh well. Akon says this is going to be one of his favorite videos cause he can “relate”. ?I can see that. ?Especially since?White women, Lamborghini’s and blood diamonds seem to be a recurring theme in the vid…?
