New Flava: Rihanna x Where Have You Been Video Review

by

My first pre judgement before watching this video was ” Oh lord another subliminal message video from Miss Bad gal Ri Ri”. But to be honest I really enjoyed this video. The music video for “Where Have You Been” was filmed March 7 and March 8, 2012 in Los Angeles, California and was directed by Dave Meyers. Everybody knows Dave Meyers does dope videos, he’s been in the this field since I was 9.I liked the fact that the choreography looked fun and easy to learn. I applaud Rihanna for at least trying some choreography in her video other than her usual “dutty wine” and I think she looked amazing doing it. Also I loved the different visuals such as the African and the dark vivid scene. For all my fashionistas make sure you check out the inspiring fashion from her hair to her eyebrows which are very detailed. The song might actually take a little time to grow on me though because I actually enjoy “Reggae Ri Ri over Techno Ri Ri”. But I guess it’s safe to say that this is another successful hot dance Rihanna record with an even hotter video…

Just thought I post some new music for all you R&B lovers out there!! I personally like that new Usher, I can never get tired of him! Also I love the fact that SWV is coming back out with more music. I will definitely be in attendance for their tour with Jodeci when they come to Greensboro in May. The 90′s generation is coming back strong.

Listen to these tracks and tell me what you think. Do they have enough flava?

I use to be such a huge Nicki Minaj supporter.. I remember the first time I heard “Warning” and I was hooked. I searched all her videos on Youtube memorizing every song like I wrote it myself. But now I see Nicki is a completely different person. Even though she has changed negatively in my opinion, I will not deny the fact that she has done phenomenally well in the Hip Hop game as a female MC. Kudos to you New Nicki but i just wish she wouldn’t have through her true MC essence away… RIP to the Old Nicki…

They say Poetry is nearer to vital truth than history…

This is one of my favorite talented poetic sistas. Mrs. Shanelle gabriel is a soulful singer, a gifted writer, actress, and advocate for Lupus awareness. Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, she has displayed her skills at colleges and venues both nationally and internationally. Frequently compared to Lauryn Hill and the super duo Floetry wrapped-in-one, Shanelle’s tenacity has allowed her to become a shining star in any path she treads.(http://www.shanellegabriel.com/bio/)

i love to see beautiful black women showcasing their artistic talents, that’s why we need to support them! Check her out in this video performing one of my favorite poems. This one is for the ladies, I love it!!!

You can always count on me to inform you on the hottest music in the streets right now!!! I have to admit that Wiz khalifa has definitely been dropping some heat for his beloved fans lately. Just a couple of months ago I heard many fans  complaining about  how Wiz had went too commercial and he lost his essence. Well Wiz fans he changed up huhh? guess he caught up to the negativity. Also I wanted to mention that I’m glad to see Jadakiss back in the game doing his thing, I think Hip Hop needs Jadakiss’s presence right now. Here’s your Top 5 ladies and gentleman!!
