Have I mention how obsessed I am with Nicki Minaj?! The greatest black Barbie to every grace a mic! Here's the new one from black Ken, err, Usher, I mean featuring the badass Barbie, called "Little Freak."
A tad late on all these new tunes, but it's been a busy, busy week! Here's the remix to Trey Songz "Invented Sex" featuring the original sex[y] master Usher and Miss Keri Hilson. Enjoy!
Warning: Motion sickness may incur. Hustle, hustle, grind, grind... the streets are fed up. ::Giggle:: Look at Lil' Drizzy just hanging in the back tryin' look all cool until it's time for his verse...
Really want to see Alicia Keys in concert, but can’t justify buying that oddly expensive ticket? Well don’t. Billboard Live and its partner OWL.tv (Our World Live) along with Microsoft and MTV bring live concerts to users worldwide via live stream. Finally fans and artists will be reunited for free.99 and as if it couldn’t get better, no large heads, tall people or overly anxious annoying fans to ruin your concert experience. Self service drinks and food from the comfort of your own kitchen and hey, if you can’t catch the concert live, play it on demand.
Sounds like utopia, right? Well fans will have a great viewing experience depending on their bandwidth, but you can’t help to feel a loss of that in-person feeling when you see your favorite artist perform. There’s a personal connection to attending a live event, trying to get the best pictures and even some good video footage for your YouTube page. Sure, you’ll be in front of your computer singing along to songs, but have no fear, you won’t really be alone! Connect with others watching the same concert via Facebook and Twitter applications right on the page. Social media really is taking over our livelihoods.
And what does this mean for advertisers? More. Money. Billboard Live plans to reach 90 million people worldwide every week and advertisers better be ready to shift their budgets into the digital realm. Like any concert experience, users should be ready for heavy promotions, sponsorships and in-your-face marketing. It’s the price you pay for a free show. Billboard Live’s lineup is currently very, very short — Alicia Keys, R. Kelly, Imogen Heap, Usher, David Archuleta and Daughtry – expect more artists to be added soon.

Who Usher be talking to on this one? I'm personally not waiting for Usher's ass to get home and sex me, jussayin'. Marriage, divorce and fatherhood haven't really done anything for his career.
New music from DJ Khaled featuring this minute's faves -- Drake, Rick Ross, Young Jeezy... oh and he threw some Usher in there, too. Press play and enjoy.
You know your career's on fire when you've got a platinum album (The Evolution of Robin Thicke) and you're interviewing with Oprah, but what else does R&B singer/producer Robin Thicke have up his sleeves?
You probably saw Robin's performance on American Idol, and if you didn't, you better YouTube it because it was ah-mazing. And apparently Oprah couldn't get enough of Robin the first time because he's coming back for another episode. "We're doing a Robin Thicke band session on Oprah and I'm supposed to bring on a couple of friends," Robin says. So not only does Robin produce music, but he's producing this episode of Oprah.
Making music is a never-ending process for Robin. Coming up, he's working on producing music for his wife Paula Patton's new movie This Wednesday. Robin says he'd do anything for his wife: "It's my lady's movie -- she wears the pants around here -- she wants me to makes some music, I'll make some music."Collaboration-wise, Robin's also working on Usher's new album. "We've got a couple good ideas," he says. "It's just good music; we try not to think about those things, we just try to make good records." Also, get ready to hear a Robin Thicke-50 Cent collabo coming up on 50's new album.
But you won't see Robin collaborating with many other artists. "I don't really want to produce for other people; I've got so much music in me, I just really want to put it all into my own music," Robin says. "But I do it for people like Ush because he's a good friend of mine and he's so fun to work with because he's so talented."
Mostly, Robin's focused on working on his next record, but he's pretty tight-lipped about the sound and feel of his new music. "I can't say because people be bittin' my shit," he says. "I'm very excited about it. I'm just enjoying making music and pouring my heart out."
So, catch Robin on tour in the States for the rest of the May -- he'll be heading overseas in June. But have no fear, this summer he'll be back and on tour with Beyoncé. Now, that's gonna be a hot tour!
