[Video] Lil Wayne – ‘Da Da Da’

I didn’t hate “Rebirth.” I just didn’t like it. This is tolerable and looks like a lot of fun.

B.o.B. featuring Hayley Williams of Paramore – “Airplanes” (mobile users: click/touch link then click/touch “DOWNLOAD” to play)
B.o.B. definitely found his lane and he’s really in control of it right now, don’t you agree? He has that crossover appeal but still respected among unforgiving hip-hop scene. This is the second single off his Atlantic debut, “The Adventures of Bobby Ray.” Look for it to hit iTunes tomorrow and check the album for a part-two of this joint which features Eminem. Yes, as in Marshall Mathers. As for the third single? That’s a joint called “Magic” featuring Rivers Cuomo of Weezer.

This is dope! She channels the late James Brown with the dance moves but she’s so unique. You don’t see many girls dance like she does. She doesn’t dance sexy or anything but it’s still dope to see a girl move the way she does.
[Video] Anya Marina – ‘Whatever You Like’ Cover
Feb 18th
Apparently, this song was on “Gossip Girl” a few months back but, I can’t say that I watch that show. This was #nowplaying on Twitter so I decided to give it a try. At 3:00 a.m., I’m willing to give almost anything a try if it’ll entertain my insomnia.
I actually think this is kind of smooth. Marina sings the lyrics to T.I.’s “Whatever You Like” over some original pop beats. The fact that the lyrics are exactly the same is hilarious being that it’s coming from someone that looks like she fell off the Lady Gaga assembly line.

Dan Black featuring Kid Cudi – “Symphonies” Remix
I heard something that sounds similar to “Symphonies” a while back. I thought it was creatively absurd for a guy from the U.K. to sing Biggie’s lyrics over a Rihanna beat. That beat morphed into “Sypmhonies” and now Cudi found it.
