January 31, 2009 jnelj4u 1 comment


Turntables, produced by hit maker Danja, is reportedly going to be included on Ciara’s highly anticipated new album Fantasy Ride. The song has potential single written all over it. It would be incredible to see these two get into a dance off. The video would make for an epic win! Listen to the song below.

In honor of Fall Fashion Week, television stations tend to broadcast fashion-related movies during the month of February, and this year’s no exception.

Lagerfeld Confidential, the documentary about you know who, airs on the Sundance Channel on February 9th at 7pm EST.

Marc Jacobs & Louis Vuitton, which followed Marc in the making of the Spring 08 LV collections, airs on Sundance on Valentine’s Day at 7pm EST.

Yves St. Laurent: 5 Avenue Marceau 75116 Paris airs the next day at 7pm EST, also.

Some might argue it’s even better than front row.

All On The Cover: Grace Jones Covers V Magazine Spring 2009 Edition

The cover looks great, but I’m not really into models having a cigarette in their mouths during a shoot. It makes it look ugly and makes girls that look up to them, think that it’s ok to smoke.

Music In Ya Ear: Raekwon Feat. Ghostface Killah “Criminology 2″

Proves He Was Really Only Built for Cuban Linx…

Living larger than ever. Yes, “Criminology 2″ is a sequel to “Criminology,” from Raekwon’s classic 1995 debut Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, and will appear on the long-awaited Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II. But is Rae doing it “‘09 style,” as he claims? Well, the new track uses the same beat, same guest star (Ghostface Killah, naturally), and another sample from the same movie (Scarface, naturally). But, given the face-melting perfection of his debut — and the slipshod quality of much recent Wu-Tang output — we believe the Chef is right to stick to the old recipes.

So, please: Kick it old-school.

Just In: Alicia Keys signs a new deal with Yamaha

Alicia Keys signs a new deal with Yamaha. They will collaborate on her signature piano tones included in future products. The first of which has already been released on Jan 17th at a gathering for press and dealers in the Yamaha booth at Winter Namm music product industry trade show in Cali. The project saw the artist, her engineer, Ann Mincielli and plug-in designer Thomas Hansen Scarbee digitally reproducing the exact sound of Keys’ Yamaha C3 Neo grand piano. Keys’ hope is to have her sounds available at affordable prices within the next three months.

Alicia had this to say:

“I wanted to create a sound that is just magnificent and that would inspire me to play, It was an idea that was born during the creation of my last album, As I Am. While we were there recording, we were able to create a really warm and beautiful sound using my C3 Neo and we decided that we wanted to capture that sound and make it something that I can take with me everywhere. I believe it is really important to have access to a great sounding piano and I hope this new virtual piano will inspire others and help them to hone their craft, regardless of their economic situation.”
