"CIARA IS GO GIRL....AND "JUST HAPPENS TO HAVE HER OWN."

Ok, so I couldn't pass up remarkin on my girl Ciara Harris...no relation.lol Now I'll admit...when I heard the song, I was like...eehhh. But more on the good side. 3 outta 5 stars. I'm just sayin. But when I saw this video!!!!! Ladies and Gentleman Ciara is a bad chick.

I mean, who in the game can move like her? Ladies please don't hate on the obsessive splits.lol Jus sayin. But real talk I definitley see the growth. The most important thing in any artist's career. That is if longevity is of any importance to them. And yes I dare say that she is sexier that the Queen herself... who will remain nameless because I fear for my life. (cough cough Beyonce)lol

I feel bad for saying this, but I really don't wanna see another woman overthrown the REAL queen being Janet herself. And not that either ladies, Ciara or Beyonce have done it yet, with Ciara's new LP Fantasy Ride and Beyonce's I Am, both have never ending momentuum it seems that will eventually put one or the other on top.

By the way, if you're going to the Janet "Rock With You" concert Oct. 22 in Dallas, be lookin for ya boy on the third row. I'll be wearing the "Janet's Volunteer" shirt also.lol I'm just sayin...

"SPEAKING OF WOMEN WHO GOT THEIR OWN...."

Yeah this video dropped a minute ago also...BUT when talking about 3 great women who don't anything from a man...well...almost anything.lol And could probably BUY you if they wanted to...I thought a follow up of Ne-Yo's She Got Her Own would be appropriate. I'm likin this cat's album so far. And I like how this is indeed spin off from Miss Independent. But who cares...I likes. But why aren't these 3 ladies in this video???????? I'll leave it at that. If you got ya own ladies...PLEASE call me!!!!!!!lol Real.....talk! I mean it just makes the relationship...that...better ya know? I'M JUST SAYINNNN!!!!!!! Dedicated to the ladies.

SHOUT OUT TO MY MAN MIKE JONES....who?lol Ya'll check him out tomorrow live interview right here on Musicforecast; Still rainin on ya parade with the latest and greatest news. Keep represent H-town bro. Acres Homes, 44, Big Ike, Inwood.....yeah I said Inwood too...lol STAND UPPPP!!!!! jt~1

NE-YO - PROTECT YOU

This is a hot track, it has a 70s Funk to it. I'm interested to see what Ne-Yo has in store for his new album since I wasn't really feelin his last one.

BUN B ft. Sugar Tounge Slim - THE SOUTH

Bun B comes hard on the track with his signature flow, and the beat is sick. The Jodeci sample is clean. However, I have a problem with Sugar claiming that he is the baddest pimp since Pimp C. Come on man... then you have the nerve to come through with a verse that sounds like the Pimp wrote it. That pi$$es me off just a little bit.

USHER - MOVIN MOUNTAINS

Usher is trying to make his comeback, but he has an up hill battle.....no pun intended, i'm serious. It's a good track, but guys like Trey Songs, Mario, and Ne-Yo have been killing the R&B game in Mr. Raymond's absence. I'm not counting Usher out, but he needs to put out something stronger than what I have heard so far.

THE COOL KIDS - FLOSSIN

The Cool Kids are a breath of fresh air for Hip-Hop. I'm just glad to hear that there are rappers out in the game that just do it to have fun and not as a side business to their main job in the drug game which most rappers want to portray. Don't get me wrong these "Kids" are very good on the mic. It has an old school feel to it, and will keep your head nodding.

JOHNTA AUSTIN - SAY SO
This guy knows how to craft a hit. He has done it for plenty of other singers and it sounds just a good when he does it himself. Definitely Check This Out!!

And there you have it, more hits brought to you by Music Forecast. Make sure you put us as your home page, because all of your Internet needs are right here.

04/02/08 - Hump Day EXCLUSIVES

EXCLUSIVE: Kanye's New Video For HomecomingKanye has just wrapped and dropped his video for Homecoming. The video is just amazing as the track. I swear this dude got the best videos. At least on this album he does. I can't say no more, watch it there. MF 3.0 got ya.

Kanye West - Homecoming ft. Chris Martin

Ludacris Wants Us To Stay TogetherLudacris dropped this track just for the hell for it and reminds us what he should always be mentioned when talking about who's one of the nicest rappers out right the track. The track is humorous, and basically just addresses the numerous breakups in the hip-hop community and in the world today. I like the track 'cause the stuff he say on here, I've been saying it. Peep it here and you'll see what I mean. Either way, didn't somebody say Hip Hop Is Dead?

Ludacris - Stay Together

Bun B Tells Us What's Gangsta

Bun B just recently dropped his first single for his newest solo album, II Trill. He's waiting on Sean Kingston to come from Europe and then he says they'll shot the video for the single. The track, "That's Gangsta," is hot, and has Bun B rapping' about what is, and isn't gangsta. But what sticks out when I listen to the track is what I feel is definitely not gangsta...Sean Kingston! Prob shoulda got sumbody else to do the hook, but JR Rotem, Kingston's mentor did the beat so there you go. Anyway peep the track here, and you'll see what I mean.

Bun B - That's Gangsta
updated: posted on MF3 earlier in Feb as well

Ne-Yo's First Single Off New Album: LeakedNe-Yo released, or someone has released the first single off off Ne-Yo's new album dropping in the summer titled, "The Year of the Gentleman." The track is called "Closer" and is inspired by Euro-Pop or Funky House after a recent trip to Europe by Ne-Yo. Funky House as I call it is the latest music craze out there in Europe, particularly the UK, and is a form of Electronica music that is similar to UK Garage. The genre uses a 4-to the-floor drum pattern and blends funky melodies and vocals. The sounds is quite reminiscent of radio these days, ala, the whole Timbaland, Timberlake, Flo-Rida, uptempo sound thats being going on lately. Anyway, Ne-Yo was inspired by all that, put his touch on it, and created his latest single. Peep it here on MF 3.0 and tell me if its poppin or not.

Ne-Yo - Closer

Shawty Lo's Done It AllShawty Lo trying to make some noise for his debut album with his second single, "Dun Dun". The track is hot, but it's definately not going to help him save his album from flop status. But hey, if he hook it up w/ a remix like he did with They Know, then well, you never know. Peep it here.

Shawty Lo - Dun Dun

ALSO,
in case yall didn't hear...Jay-Z & Beyonce suppose to be getting married REAL soon. They just got out a marriage license and its valid for 60 day, so two months to do the do...yeah I don't care much either, it's like they been married right.

I'm Out

03/05/08 - Hump Day EXCLUSIVES

Dilly here for another edition of HUMP DAY EXCLUSIVES. Yes, we are almost to the weekend, but right now we're already here to the Hot Ish.

Dipset Is OVER!And we all saw it coming. 40 Cal and Jay Bezel done released a track titled "Dipset Is Ova" stating just that, and venting on the frustration with Jim Jones and Camron's beefing. In a recent interview they both said that their failure to not speak or come to terms with eachother has resulted in the whole Dipset failure. They said nobody's making money but Cam and Jones, and it ain't right. The true star of the group in my opinion, Juelz Santana also weighed in and put it like this. "When I came in the game, at 18, and was being treated in a certain way, it was cool, I had no money, I was new, and Cam was the one that got me out. Now, after some success, after some weight being gained, and I'm still being treated the same way? That just don't work." I understand what the man saying, they need to give Juelz his shine, and quit tripping. Either way, Juelz the only one signed to a major labor, as his new album is post to drop with Def Jam this year and his ex-comrade Jim Jones has rumors flying about him being dropped from Warner Bros without even releasing any material. Ouch. Hopefully all ends up well with the members, who knows, but I do know this, at the end of the track there's a SKULL GANG shoutout, so it look Julez's Skull Gang just got some new members.

40 Cal & Jay Bezel - Dipset Is Ova

R. Kelly Disses Ne-Yo On New TrackNow yall knew R. Kelly was hood right? No? Well I'm tellin' u he is. The boy don't play, just with little girls. No, I'm playin' but he really Kels talk greasy like the next man at that's exactly what he doin' on this track "I'm A Beast." Some highlights of Kel's "rap":
Never been a snitch boy/ Never been a b*tch boy/ Why I gotta hate on you?/ Look at me I'm rich boy/ You need a steering wheel, the way you ridin my dick boy/ Say you're a go-getter/ Go get your own sh*t boy..."
Now although he don't say who exactly he talkin' bout, it ain't hard to tell. Peep it here.

Fat Joe vs. Papoose In A FIST FIGHT???

Aiight, so here's the run down. Apparently, last Friday Fat Joe, Papoose, Yo Gotti, Gucci Mane, and Cassidy was doing a show for a radio station out in North Carolina. Before the show, while at the hotel, Joey Crack wanted to find Papoose and question him 'bout sum disparaging remarks made towards him while on air back in NY with 50 Cent. Fat Joe roamed the hotel 'til he found Papoose in Cassidy's room and asked dude, "Do we got a problem?" Papoose, MANing up says, "If you want a problem, we can handle that." Apparently that's not the answer Joe was looking for an so the scuffle ensued. Now both parties have different accounts of how it went down, with Papoose coming out first sayin' Fat Joe was 8 men deep, and Papoose was only with 3 cats and wanted to fight one on one but Fat Joe refused. He then says that during the fight he got his hits in, and quote "put work on his chin." He also said on the radio station that he handled his business. Two days later Joey Crack responds with a video, after fake pics were floating around with him with a bruised face, sayin' Papoose is lying and that it was 4 on 4, and that his DJ went to the hospital, his bodyguard was bruised up and Papoose was bruised up. He also told media outlets that Fat Joe sat him down AFTER the beat down, Capo style, and told him why he got his @$$ beat and that they squashed it. Which Papoose does admit to. LOL, man. Now if you ask me...Papoose ain't hanging with Fat Joe, I mean look at the size of the kid. And the detail in which Joe spoke about the fight in leads me to believe that he telling the truth. He also said Cassidy and Gotti was there, and they'll let us know how it went down. Only time will tell.

Papoose's Side Of The Story

Fat Joe's Side Of The Story

Video: The Games Heads To PrisonMr. Lame, I mean Game turned himself into prison yesterday to begin serving his 60 day sentence for his weapons possession charge. Not gonna speak on this too much as yall know I think The Game is trying to publicize jail life and use this, for some odd reason, as promo for his new album. Dude didn't even want to fight the charge, don't make no sense. Peep the video here.

And I'm Out. Comment, Come Back.

R&N - 2/28/08 - LEAK CRITIQUE!

WHAT TO SAY ABOUT TREY.....

WONDER WOMAN Remix

Well....what can I say. So far....I'm likin everything this dude is puttin out! This track right herre....this joint right here.....THIS JOINT RIGHT HERE......THIS IS DEATH!!!LOL But naw the beat is sick, his flow is decent, the BGV's are nice. The only thing I was a bit confused on was that part that the girl came in on....(you'll know what I mean when you listen.lol) I'm just sayin. But somethin still doesn't curl quite over with Trey for me.

Could be this....lol

But he's slowly but surely doin it for me. Yup.

WAIT!!!! HOLD UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

KRYPTONITE ft. Rich Boy

Kryptonite Remix ft. Eve

I'm gonna have to give this one my HOTT D@#% this is hott!!! I know most of my crits have been pretty positive but I truly am feelin this joint oh man! This joint I would have to say takes the Wonder Woman joint by Trey up above. I'm proud of this kid for this....

BUT...I could have done without the rap lick by....who was that again? It was unneccessary...truly. It made me come outta that comment really. I'm just sayin. But taking nothing away from this amazing kid... 5 outta 5 stars from me this eve'nent!lol

AND WHO WAS THAT ON THE KEYS!?!?!?!??!?!?!?! SICK! I'm just sayin.....

AND SINCE THIS TURNED INTO A COMPETITION.........

LET ME IN

Third place would clearly go to Ne-Yo (sigh*)

I sigh not because of this God-awful mug shot, because this joint is actually hott....but that voice just doesn't do this justice. BIIIIGGGG ups to the producer. It sounds fiya-like really. But you guys would just have to hear this. I think you'll agree with me....if you have conscientious hearing....Did I spell that right? I'm just sayin...

R&N - 1/25/08

Today's update is short, but that doesn't mean we didn't bring the heat. So here are a couple R&B tracks to take y'all into weekend.

New Music



Ne-Yo - Dream



Mary J. Blige Ft. Eve - Mirror (FIRE!!)

Mary J. Blige Ft. Usher - Shake Down
(Mary is 2 for 2. I'm lookin foward to the album)

R&N - 11/24/07

Hey folks,

So lemme get back to those stories I told y'all about yesterday... PLUS a new one I found out about today!

Timbaland - Having A Wife & Kid!


Aparrently, Timbaland is planning to get married... to his publicist! On Nov. 21st, it was announced that his baby daughter was born. Timbaland and Monique Idlett have supposedly been dating for two years now, and are planning to get married soon... Congratulations to Timbo!

Ghostface - In the new IronMan Movie!


I heard Ghostface actually got a part in the new Ironman movie comin' out soon... I forget who's gonna play the infamous Tony Stark, but it won't be Ghostface, lol. Anyway, I heard he finished his part for the movie, and i think it's gonna be pretty hot...

Ne-Yo - Kicked off R. Kelly's "Double Up" Tour!


I don't know exactly what happened, but apparently Ne-Yo is supposed to keep the exact reason of why he got kicked off a secret... Rumors were that Kells wanted 7 dressing rooms for himself, and kinda left Ne-Yo without one... Other sources claim because Ne-Yo kept questioning R. Kelly's authority... Regardless, Ne-Yo is officially off the tour, and is now trying to do his own for his fans...

It SO sounds like the "Best of Both Worlds" tour with Jay-Z and y'all saw how that fizzled... Ne-Yo says he respect R. Kelly's music, but NOT R. Kelly as a man! That's pretty bold, but after that whole trial case with Kelly, among other things, I don't blame him.

P. Diddy - Finally Proposing to Kim Porter?!


So, you think Diddy has finally come to his senses after having his 6th child named Chance... That's just crazy... After his 3rd baby mama, he realizes he needs to marry someone... Rumor has it, Diddy is planning a to make a SPECTACULAR proposal any day now.

Diddy has supposedly already sent out invitations. There's going to be celebrities, camera crews, the whole sha-bang. If this is the case, Congrats to Diddy... finally.
