Kanye West Video Directed by Spike Jonze and MORE!
I don't really know what to say about this other than its well directed and highly artistic. However, I still find that its disturbing and makes me worry about Kanye and what goes through his head sometimes. Im hoping this shows that Kanye is gonna chill on drinking and the little character at the end is a symbolic of that.
This is something to watch! Fast forward to Half Way to see the rant...

New Music Tuesday---John Mayer "Who Says" Video
This is the only song worth talking about after this past Tuesday's release of new music on iTunes. John Mayer once again has another amazing song. I highly recommend that you watch how he made his album that is coming out October 27th. What he did was so unique and artistic. He bought a house and made that entire house his studio. Each room had a different feel to it and different instruments. Mayer is such a talent and so creative in how he delivers a message through a song. A true talent and a true genius! Here is the video of his new video "Who Says".
SHAKIRA---She Wolf (Mike Mac Remix)
Here is my newest remix of Shakira's "She Wolf". Enjoy! More on the way....

MICHAEL JACKSON---> "THS IS IT" Official Song
This is the freshly released Michael Jackson "This is It" song that will play during the credits of the Michael Jackson Movie entitled "This Is It".
I think is a very emotional song for Michael Jackson fans. The song is very well produced and brings back the old Michael we all loved so much and when he was at the pinnacle of his career. Enjoy the song "This Is It" by Michael Jackson.
God Bless
PHOENIX---The "Commercial" Band
You have heard there songs played on commercials across the United States and probably thought, who is that?! That happened to me too and I discovered the amazing band PHOENIX! This band is so tight and they have been doing it since 1991!
The band is from the suburbs of Versaille in France. The lead vocalist with the amazing and distinct voice is Thomas Mars. The bassist is Deck D'Arcy, the guitarists are Christian Mazzalai and Laurent Brancowitz.
Look out for them to continue to surprise us with an amazing sound and even better songs.
Here is my favorite song "Lisztomania"

WILLPOWER---> The Life of Will Zarifi
This the direct link to the story:
"ABC News--Will Zarifi"
This is about my good friend, hero and now angel Will Zarifi who passed away one year ago today. He is an amazing man with an amazing girlfriend (Carley) and unbelieveable family. I love him so much and he has taught not only me how to live, but millions of other people. He faced so much adversity but always brought a smile to everybody's face. He never complained and he never asked why me? In fact, he asked "why not me?"
I think about him all the time and try to continue his legacy. Please donate to his Charity which is under my philanthropy section on the right column of my page.
God Bless
Willpower!

NEW MUSIC TUESDAY! (Britney Spears, Tiesto, & More)
Find reviews for music that is released every tuesday by yours truly!
First off...
Britney Spears releases "3" on iTunes. This is definitely another track showcasing the new era of pop music with Britney Spears setting the standard. I think Britney fans will be happy with this one. Its definitely on that happy club vibe. Here is a link to the song:
Britney Spears- 3
Tiesto has an album out that is really really dope. The music industry as a whole is going more and more in the direction of mainstreaming techno/dance/electronica music and this album will help that movement. This album features many different styles of dance and electro so be prepared to speed up and slow down. All the songs feature amazing synths and drums. I am expecting many of the songs to be in commercials and movies so be on the lookout for that. Right now my favorite track is featuring the lovely C.C. Sheffield entitled "Escape Me". Her voice is perfect for the track and the track as a whole is sooooo dope! Go listen to the whole album on his myspace:
Tiesto Album
Backstreet Boys have a new album. Defintely not impressed but I guess that won't stop the loyal fans. Its not terrible but at the same time I feel like they kept the same 1990's sound and tried to change it a litte but failed. Find their album at their myspace:
Backstreet Boys
Tokio Hotel are definitely a weird bunch. However they came with a cd that is pretty solid and its a combo of a few different genres of music. They list their album as Pop but it touches on Rock, Alternative, and Electronica. They have a hit record in "automatic". Find their album here:
Tokio Hotel
Lights is a new pop artist with her debut album. I like her style, its very different. I really like her song "Saviour". I wouldn't say her album as a whole is amazing but its definitely cool. She plays most of the instruments on the album so props on that! A little too cheap pop on the production side but nonetheless she does a good job. I think with different production she could take her career far. Find her album here:
Lights
T.I. released a single "Hell of a Life". I am a T.I. fan on some of his tunes but this one sounds too similar to "Livin the Life". I actually hummed the lyrics to that and they paralled. Find that song and video here:
Hell of a Life Video
For now, that is all I am reporting about. Definitely look forward to listening to more of the albums that came out today and seeing what they are all about. For now I think you have a good grasp for what albums and singles will be the most talked about this Tuesday.
All the Best and Success

Best of "In the Studio with..." Videos On Youtube
Did this take time? Yes. Here are what I believe to be some of the best and most viewed "in the studio with" sessions of some of our favorite rap and pop artists and producers. I hope you enjoy this and look forward to me adding more to the collection. So far, I believe this is a solid amount that will keep you distracted and inspired for a good 30 minutes. Enjoy!
Justin Timberlake and Rihanna Dating?!
So I have read numerous reports that Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel have split up. We can all agree that that is a fact. HOWEVER, I do not believe that Rihanna was the reason behind that break up. Many people and bloggers have said it stemmed from their "Rehab" video which featured a very "steamy" scene involving the two. I dont think that this is the reason but it is what it is. I look forward to JT continuing his music career while JB continues her acting career. Lets just keep Rihanna out of the equation because she doesn't need or deserve the bad press for breaking up JT and JB.
Mariah Carey's New Album...Is this R&B/Vocal Album of the Year?
I say this with the utmost respect to Beyonce and her most recent CD I Am...Sasha Fierce which I also thought was a really dope album. With that said...
I am a huge fan of the new Mariah Carey CD. Not only does the CD tell a whole story of love and life, the songs are meaningful and deep. The production on this album is crazy as well! This album is definitely underrated because I have not heard anybody else really commenting on how good this album actually is. Personally, I think Obsessed was not a good single to release because I don't think it captures what the album is about, howevever, its a single and it did its purpose. I highly recommend buying this album if you are a R & B/Vocal fan.
