Yesterday evening, I had the great pleasure of attending UK grime-pop princess Katy B 's debut US performance at Le Bain as part of the Giant Step/Steve Madden Music Series. After meeting up with my friend Jake, my worst nightmare Jon (of Alis-Blog , he's literally the worst) and Jon's roomie Justin, we began to mingle (Read: drink.) The free Svedka flowed freely as we all began to teeter dangerously close to a hip-deep swimming pool conveniently placed in the center of the fancy loft, as if begging for any one unsuspecting party-goer loaded up on [...]
When you're a part of a boy or girl group it's important for people to know you're in a musical collective, even when you're not performing on stage. The key to making this statement: matching outfits — in fact, the crazier the better! So we've rounded up our favorite coordinating ensembles from some of pop's most beloved music crews. Click through to revisit some of music's most hilarious fashion mistakes and keep in mind that the members agreed to wear these clothes (or were forced to Beyonce's mom Tina).

I had the chance to check out an advanced screening of Notorious last Thursday. I thought it was cool. It it Pretty much dramatized everything we saw in the 90's about his rise and fall. I thought the casting was funny at points... Anthony Mackie as Pac didn't really sit well with me. He was all charisma and no depth, no Thug Passion . They should have gotten Saadiq from PPP or that dude that used to always be on Jenny Jones instead... Other than that, Naturi Naughton (of [...]
With Aaron on a very brief hiatus, I though I'd throw up a ML Diggin joint (the grandfather feature of Remix Tuesdays). This track came up on random shuffle today, and I love random ass guest spots like this. Back in 2000 Nas got on a Trackmasters remix of the R&B trio 3LW's debut single No More (Baby I'ma Do Right) . In his 2 (!!) verses Nas mentions not messing with Jailbait until the subject gets older and holding down 3LW. Does anyone know the background story of why Nas got involved with this track? Thank [...]
