We Are The World... OFFICIAL VIDEO

The OFFICIAL remake of "We Are The World".

I am a firm believer of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it", but I do love how it incorporated Michael Jackson [God rest his soul] throughout the video, vocally and visually. Please do not forget Haiti.

Daily Photo: Gucci Mane XXL Magazine

Gucci Mane is featured on the March issue of XXL Magazine... To say he's "iced" out would be an understatement... He looks like his neck may be heavy. Lemme hold it for you.. LOL

New Video: Good To Me by LeToya Luckett

I love Letoya Luckett, and I am just so glad that she's still grinding and making good music, and not that watered down 'put me on the radio' garbage. This is a new video to her fourth single “Good To Me” starring Keston Karter, directed by AJ Crimson.

Rihanna Video Totally Bites M.I.A.'s Steez

"Rihanna's new video Rude Boy has been getting nothing but great reviews from bloggers and commenters a like, but it looks like a MIA video. When they say great minds think a like, I guess this is what they meant." - @BlogXilla [source]

Boyz by M.I.A

Rude Boy by Rihanna

I don't know if this is great minds "thinking alike"... but whomever produced this video needs to go re-evaluate themselves before they go produce another video using someone else's concept, theme, steez... I can't even say Rihanna is a swagger jacker because the director is the person who directs the video who does everything.... they need some @Taj_Director in their life.

Daily Photo: Keri Hilson Kills Chris Brown Rumor

Last Sunday, after the Super Bowl [#whodat], Keri Hilson and Chris Brown among other celebs were out on the town, partying and stuff... The rumor mill must have been on that night, because from this picture folks got the idea that Chris couldn’t keep his hands off Keri and “was all over” her. Some fool, told E! News that the two were “grinding each other” on the dance floor, and Chris begged Keri to take a picture with him for the paparazzi, all from this picture. Hot mess gossipers were on something strange. So Keri hopped on her twitter (@misskeribaby) and killed the rumor.

New Video: Memories by David Guetta Feat. Kid Cudi

I don't know if you can tell by now, but I love Kid Cudi. And David Guetta be that cat with all the dope techno "urban friendly" beats... he's the same cat that made the beat for Kelly Rowland's "When Love Takes Over". The video looks like Cudi really had fun shooting it, and when an artist has fun, I have fun watching...

You could definitely find something like this on my ipod.

New Video: Symphonies by Dan Black

This is "Symphonies" by Dan Black featuring Kid Cudi... The video is a little strange. Has no real purpose, but gets hella creative in the "Symphonies 2" part, but Dan Black is a little off center like that. I dig it, and its dope... But as for the beat, definitely the same joint used in "Umbrella" by Rihanna.

Sade Performs “Soldier Of Love” on Today Show & 106+Park

Sade's Latest Album "Soldier of Love" hit stores yesterday... Its been 10 yrs. since her last album, so in promotion of her new release she did a couple performances. She did one at the Today Show, and then another 106 & Park. I love Sade. She's Nigerian. I think her music is legendary; she may even be iconic. And if I was 50 years old and looked half as good as she does, I'd be blessed... But unless you have that same passion for her, her performances aren't all that. *note the "ooo's" and "aaahhh's" on the performance she did at 106 & Park. Those kids no nothing of who Sade is....

Make sure you support the artist (Sade) and go get that album. Its good music, just less than exciting performances.

Femme Of The Day: Kelis

Big ups to Kelis getting it in on this Feb+March Complex Magazine Issues. She's in it talking about kids, manners, and natural beauty. Even though I think she did Nas wrong by sticking him for $55k child support per month; and then rocking a fur coat so elaborate that PETA couldn't tell her nothing, I still love this chick.

Oooo she know she bad.

Nicki Minaj Says Lil Wayne Shouldn't Go To Jail..

Nicki Minaj was talking to MTV about her feelings on Lil Wayne going to jail for a year. According to Nicki, Weezy doesn’t deserve to go.

“It’s sad, because he doesn’t deserve to go to jail. I’m a crybaby,” she added, fighting back tears. “You shouldn’t ask me stuff like that. Reality hasn’t set in that he has to go to jail. He shouldn’t have to go to jail.” “He’s such a strong person, and it’s weird — he’s sitting there doing videos,” Nicki continued. “I found myself e-mailing him about something I wanted him to do for me. When I thought about it, I was like, ‘It’s so selfish,’ ’cause it’s, like, what is the mind frame of somebody that’s supposed to go to jail for months and never served that amount of time in jail? I don’t know. I’m always amazed at Wayne’s dignity. Everything he does, he does with dignity. No matter what you throw at him, you can’t take away his confidence. Something about him is always like, ‘I am still who I am.’ That’s just dope. This dude is a legend.”

I know we all make jokes about dropping soap, and things like that, but jail is no joke. But I am a firm believer of "if you can't do the time, then don't do the crime."... As intelligent of a man Weezy is, he had to know that there were retributions to his actions. Hopefully he'll come out a changed man...

Lil Wayne Ain't Going To Jail..... YET.

Word on the street is that Lil Wayne’s jail time got postponed. Weezy managed to buy himself a little more time by getting his sentencing postponed until March 2nd.

MTV is reporting that the case was adjourned because of Wayne’s need for dental surgery due to a cracked tooth. The rapper is scheduled to have surgery on Feb. 12th and needs at least a week to 10 days for recovery. The judge expressed his discontent saying:“I don’t want this to get pushed back anymore. This is the last adjournment.”

[click here to see more photos]

So I guess Weezy's got himself another month to bust out a new album and say goodbye...

Dear Marsha Ambrosius.... Go Back To Floetry.

Marsha Ambrosious was part of one of the dopest duets that I've ever come to love, Floetry. And, I don't know if they had an official break, up or just went their separate ways, but Marsha is back to making music again. This is her latest song, “Put It On Repeat”. And even though I miss the talented singers, vocals, and easy listening r&b, I just don't think her single would fly as much as a Floetic genesis would... you be the judge...

Ray J Smashed EVERYONE'S Homies...

I don't usually entertain foolishness, but it re-aired last night while I was putting some work in. Nothing but ratchet antics. In all honesty, Mz. Berry, is too gorgeous, and sophisticated to be wrapped up in this foolisness. “For the Love of Ray J” Reunion Special aired on Vh1, and every one was aerating dirty laundry. Pretty much Ray J slept with almost every girl in the house, and their friends. HE SMASHED THE HOMIES. And then they had Cocktail, the first season winner, on stage telling Mz. Berry, the season 2 winner, about whats "really good" with Ray J... But then her feelings got in the way, and they started arguing and stuff, I thought I was watching Jerry Springer... watch this clip.

Ratchet... *smh

Exclusive Interview With Donell Jones

Donell Jones is epic. I have experienced make ups and break ups to his music, so getting this interview was truly a blessing. Donell Jones has hits, after hits, after hits.... from "U Know What's Up" to "Where I Wanna Be" to "I'll Go"... all hits. He's making a comeback, just released a e-CD “The Lost Files”; available only on iTunes. The joint is super refreshing to the so-called r&b we hear on the radio. He's also currently in and out of the studio finishing up an album, which is gonna be released later on this spring, but is currently untitled. Thanks to Madeline, Donell's wonderful manager, I was able to chat with Donell on the telephone for a bit... A Miss Dimplez exclusive!

MD: So, I got a few questions for you, some are from fans some are from random people on twitter, uhm, the number one question I did get in though is where have you been since '06?
DJ: Pretty much just relaxing, uhm just waiting to get off Jive Records really, that's basically in a nut shell what I've been doing, just trying to get off of that contract...
MD: So, what are you gonna do now that you're out the contract?
DJ: Oh, I'm going to Disney World [laughs].. nah actually uhm, I just started my own label, so now you know, I put out The Lost Files, which is out right now, and also you know, my new album will be complete soon.
MD: Do you think r&b or the art of r&b is dead?
DJ: Nah, I don't think its dead, I just think everybody has their own style of r&b.. I think what's happening right now, is that, there's so many cats out there doing the same thing, there's just no variety anymore... You know, uhm, when I was in the game, everybody had their own style. You know when you heard a Baby Face record you knew this was Baby Face, when you heard a Stevie Wonder song, you knew it was Stevie Wonder.. Like so many artists had different styles of r&b... and I think that a lot of artist are going to the same producers and everything is starting to sound the same. Its kinda like one big song on the radio.. And, you know, i think the variety of different styles has diminished.
MD: Okay... That's real... So how do you think, with your new cd The Lost Files out on iTunes, how do you think that you can change the current state of r&b?
DJ: Oh, I definitely know I can change it. I have a great, great, pool of fans, that have supported me since the beginning.. And as far as my fans, I know I can definitely change the way they feel about r&b... You know, I always try to talk about love, and relationships, make ups and break ups... putting substance of the music, and the nature of the story of what we going through... and I think that's what's missing in r&b now-a-days, the lack of love or things about relationships... and cats these days just talk about how much money they got, or how much chicks they done hit... and to me that's, that really not it...
MD: Okay, okay... so uhm, when and why did you start singing?
DJ: I started singing when I was 5 years old... Why? I think it was a gift from God... See, my mother and father also sang as well, they just didn't do it professionally... and it just, you know, watching the award shows, and listening to music... my mom played a lot of music, uhm, I think that's what made me really want to sing.. and when I got older my mom bought me a keyboard, i learned how to play it myself... it just kept getting better and better for me, until that was all i wanted to do.
MD: That's what's up... that's whats up... so what inspires you, as a artist, because I know you write your own music, so what inspires you? And do you ever feel like giving up?
DJ: Writing songs, and being able to go on stage, and seeing people react to those songs, that's what really turns me on. I think at some point we all feel like giving up, but to be honest with you, I'll never give up, I love music so much... and personal experience, that's what really inspires me. And then growing up in a musical era, where there was so much great music, I just want to take it and share with everybody else... so much great music growing up.
MD: Right.... so, you right your own music, how long does it take for you to come up with a new concept?
DJ: Not long at all... I could be on the phone talking to you right now, and you might say something funny that would be a concept for a song... and basically, most of my songs come from personal experiences, that I've been through, with a little bit of added fiction to make the stories a little bit more believable...
MD: MmmmHmmm... so if you could chose one song, that you sang in your entire career to be remember with, what would it be and why?
DJ: Oh, that's easy, that would be "Where I Wanna Be"... I think that is the song that I would mostly be remembered by, because a lot of people really felt that song, and they felt the emotion that I had when I was singing that song, because it was a true story, and I think a lot of people at the time was going through that... and the funny thing about it is, it still happens today... Its one of those songs that will always make people know who I am...
MD: That's real... what can we expect next?
DJ: Definitely tours, I'm going everywhere, and as far as collabos, we'll probably do those on the remixes, I don't like to do those on my album, because you go on tour and they always expect to see you and that person together and that doesn't always happen... so you know, I like to keep myself for my album, and the remixes for re-releases...
MD: Is there anything you'd like to add before we close... Anything you want fans to know about "Donell Jones"?
DJ: Definitely, I just want to let all my fans know that I really appreciate them supporting me through the years, and this a new album that I have coming out and its gonna be hits from top to bottom, and if they follow my career they know that when I make an album its really not about the singles its about the whole project. So, when you put this particular album on, and you get in your head that this is all purpose music. Get your groove on, drive to it, love to it, this is all purpose music, and I'm gonna continue to do that. And if they want to reach me, they can hit me up on www.twitter.com/donelljones96, www.facebook.com/donelljones96, www.myspace.com/donelljones [www.youtube.com/donelljonestv]
MD: Thank you once again...
DJ: No problem, you have a good day...
MD: You too...

Top 5 Super Bowl Commercials

To be honest, I felt as though the commercials sucked! They used to be wayyyy funnier, now they just eh, *shrugs*. Here are the 5 top rated super bowl commercials on youtube so far. The first one is the McDonalds commercial, which was the very first commercial this year. NBA stars Dwight Howard and LeBron James star in a remake of iconic 1993 Super Bowl commercial The Showdown, which had featured hall-of-famers Michael Jordan and Larry Bird. P.S. the guy at the end is Larry Bird, 'google him'.

Doritos Commercials


Etrade Commercial
