sneek peek: usher's 'lil freak' video.

[video link]

my thought after the video ended:
"OOH! I WANNA GO SEE USHER!!!"

LOL. I'm so silly. The dancing in this video reminds me of "Yeah" from back in 2004. And, I'm noticing that he shoots a lot of his videos in clubs... trend? Nicki Minaj is being her usual self in the clip.

What are your thoughts?

toni braxton's album cover + new song.

Toni Braxton - Caught

[Listen / Download]

My girl Toni Braxton is back. Her new album Pulse comes out May 4th.

And in this new song "Caught" Mo'Nique (fresh from her Oscar win) does a skit where she throws shade at Beyoncé's song "Irreplaceable."

It's a cute song.

Ludacris recently shot the original AND the remix videos for his second single My Chick Bad.

I'm glad Nicki Minaj worked her body in this video. I'm tired of her just being a pretty face.

Cameos are all over the place and the original vid is set to premiere tomorrow (Feb. 19) on BET.

behind the scenes: rihanna's latest video.

I'm mad they had pictures posted of specific poses AND they had her sippin' champagne between takes in order to get her to twirk a lil' bit.

Now, if it was "somebody else" that would NOT have been needed. #imjustsaying

Here's the final vid for those who still haven't seen it.

"You know I'm at my best when I'm wanted," R. Kelly says in the video. "I need to know if this is what you guys want from me."

Dammit... iKnow they repealing the 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' policy but iThink if he didn't ask this stupid ass question we wouldn't be forced to tell him HELL NO!

And... when is Kells gonna come out the closet? #justsaying

This song was recorded to lead Pepsi's new worldwide campaign “Refresh Your World,” which is based on enabling youth to make a positive change in the world.

There will also commercials and a music video which will feature football stars Fernando Torres, Didier Drogba, and 16 other young music artists from around the world.

“The whole aura of it is so fun, the color, the painting and the drums,” Akon said about the video shoot. “It brings out all the cultural parts of Africa you can ever think of and it doesn’t even seem like a video, it seems more like a work of art that just happens to be a video. I hope you enjoy the look behind the scenes.”

The video will be premiered at the Grammy Awards this Sunday and commercials will air Superbowl Sunday.

Preview: Beyoncé's three commercials + 60 Minutes interview.

[video link]

Hi-def television manufacturer Vizio recently announced Beyoncé as their spokeswoman and they're already putting their investment to work. Beyoncé filmed 3 commercials, each costing $3-$6 million, to air during this year's SuperBowl on Feb. 7th.

"Its a little bit of pressure because they have genius commercials," Beyoncé said. "So, we have to make sure our commercial is really cool."

From the tid bits I've read online: 2 commercials will air during pre-game specials and the third will play during the 4th quarter of the game.

I like it. It look like the record label spent a decent amount of money. But, where's the dancing usher always incorporates into his videos?! iGuess we'll have to stay tuned until the full video premieres.

In other news...

APPARENTLY producer Jermaine Dupri is LIVID that "Foolin' Around," a song he produced for Usher, has leaked. He took to his official website for venting:

"If you follow me on Twitter you know I don't condone leaking records," Jermaine typed in all caps. "So basically I been down about it all night."

I agree 100% with Jermaine Dupri. What do you think?!
