I've had this single in my "exclusives vault" for a hot sec and it is by far one of my favorite singles.

Fresh from the Fridge: Nicki Minaj – Your Love (single/ video)
Now I'll be the very first to admit that Nicki Minaj's voice, prior songs, weird movements, fashion sense, and facial expressions bug the shit out of me. But I am not even mad at her for this track and the video to go with it. I first heard this track on Power 106's "New at 2" segment and was immediately hooked. The sample is dope. The beat knock's. The hook is catchy. Her singing voice is on … [Read More News...]

Ms. Hill Returns
The thing about great artist, they seem to be weird or go crazy in there lifetime. You can say what you want, but it has to be something.

Lauryn has been on a up and down ride since her classic … [Read More News...]
