VIDEO: “FOUR LETTER WORD” – DIGGY SIMMONS + BEHIND THE SCENES FOOTAGE

Okay, so the award for cutest video of the year DEFINITELY goes to DIGGY SIMMONS; my sisters love him – one loves this song particularly, so this post is dedicated to Mari! – and I love him in the totally not creepy way that older women love him …

Anyway, he just debuted his latest single on 106 & Park so it’s only right that we post it here for you. Ugh, hatin’ ass parents, man.

Check out some behind the scenes footage below!

I just love it; I love everything about this and I will go on record as saying that this brand is perfectly aligned with my entire existence. You can’t get more OTHER than me! PHARRELL WILLIAMS has just launched his i am OTHER brand that features those who go about life a slight bit left than everyone else. Finally, we have a club to belong to.

What makes this movement even greater are Pharrell’s PSAs – he’s amazing. Check them out below followed by links so you can get familiar with the wave.

MUSIC: “BREAK MY HEART” – LAMAR STARZZ

I like this; coming from the managers who brought Trey Songz to the forefront of R&B and debuted K. Michelle to the world comes a new talent looking to make an impact on R&B – LAMAR STARZZ. The Rochester, NY native is currently signed to Sean Garrett’s Bet I Penned It imprint and has a nice arsenal of material under his belt so far.  “Break My Heart” stands out to me almost immediately and that can never be a bad thing; check it out for yourself.

I’ll be keeping my eye on him as Lamar gears up to release his first project, R&B 24/7, in July.

VIDEO: “NAKED” – KEVIN MCCALL FEAT. BIG SEAN

RCA Records recording artist/producer/songwriter/Jack of all trades KEVIN MCCALL just dropped the video for his debut single, “Naked”, which features CBE affiliate BIG SEAN.  Dressed to the nines and ready for a fashion show, the killer visual team of Chris Brown/Godfrey Tabarez/Riveting Entertainment is a great start to what could prove to be a successful stint for the “Deuces” producer. I don’t know; something about Kevin has been sticking with me since he dropped Uninvited Guest and I’m forced to pay attention to him.  That’s not a bad thing at all; hopefully, he’ll keep kickin’ us that funky stuff.
