VIDEO: Erykah Badu - Window Seat [& Commentary from Badu]




"i was petrified while shooting this video ... but liberation began to set in .i conquered many fears in that few moments . i am greatful," she wrote Saturday (March 27) evening.
"we are ALL guilty of groupthink we have all been VICTIMS of groupthink @ShugaAnnSpyce no closed set . no actors . everything was real . window seat video notes: had intended to direct this vid alone. after working w/ coodie and chike and bouncing thoughts i asked them to join RT @TravlrStone: @fatbellybella "Window Seat" was an unbelievable moment in vulnerability and liberation. That took bawlz. @SaskiaChanel my views are condition,thus pointless .i am encouraging thought thru correct definition of #groupthink in its original intent @SaskiaChanel i make no claims , i am not qualified .William H. Whyte coined the term in 1952, in Fortune magazine . this term #groupthink intellects get in here . what are the pros and cons of shooting this type of video ? www.erykahbadu.com

In the opening shot, Badu credits rockers Matt & Kim for motivating the video's nude content.

Matt and Kim naked in 'Lessons Learned' music video. Nothing like some good old fashioned streaking in Times Square. You go Matt and Kim! Don't let the man get you down! Even when you're being pummeled by the man. I wonder what their lessons they learned from making "Lessons Learned"? Possibly, wait for a warmer day to streak? Make sure to watch out for cops instead of looking up at tall buildings? Or that people in NY are surprisingly non-chalant to both streaking and police arresting people? (Beat Crave)

VIDEO: NY-Z: An Absolut Collaboration with Jay-Z [15 min Short Documentary]




Absolut:
NEW YORK (March 22, 2010) – Today, as part of an ongoing creative collaboration with JAY-Z and Madison Square Garden (MSG), ABSOLUT® VODKA introduces “NY-Z” – a 14-minute short film featuring JAY-Z and directed by popular music and culture photographer Danny Clinch. Featuring exclusive footage of JAY-Z and John Mayer as they prepare for the September 11 benefit concert at MSG, NY-Z offers a rare glimpse into the life of native New Yorker Shawn “JAY-Z” Carter as he discusses his hometown and what it means for an artist to “arrive” with a performance at the world’s most famous arena. The short film is available for viewing at facebook.com/ABSOLUT.

In September 2009, ABSOLUT and Madison Square Garden announced the ABSOLUT CONCERT SERIES, a sponsorship dedicated to giving music fans the ultimate concert experience through a series of high-profile performances – ranging from rock and roll to country. To kick off the series, JAY-Z put on a one-night-only concert on September 11 with surprise guests, (among them Mary J. Blige, Kanye West, Beyonce and Rihanna), to benefit the New York Fire and Police Widow and Children’s Benefit Fund.

NY-Z paints a rare portrait of the hip-hop icon, with unprecedented access to JAY-Z the days and moments leading up to, and after, his legendary benefit concert. Danny Clinch gives viewers an intimate glimpse into JAY-Z’s childhood, his motivation as an artist, his passion for music, and his muse, New York. The film marks yet another unprecedented collaboration for the spirits brand in a long line of artistic partnerships dating back to the 1980s when ABSOLUT engaged pop culture icons, such as Andy Warhol and Keith Haring.

“NY-Z is a great product of the collaborations behind the ABSOLUT Concert Series,” Danny Clinch, Director of NY-Z said. “As the director, the creative spirits behind ABSOLUT and two iconic NY brands, JAY-Z and MSG, allowed for such a natural and seamless foundation, that the rest was really about celebrating New York through JAY-Z’s eyes and exploring the notion that you have truly ‘arrived’ as a performer when you are playing at the Garden.”

NY-Z was shot by ABSOLUT agency of record TBWA, in black and white in New York. For more information about NY-Z, visit Facebook.com/ABSOLUT

VIDEO: Snoop Dogg Talks About His New Album, The Makings of a Legend and Says a major Dr. Dre Collaboration is Likely



"What is the possibility of a Dr. Dre-produced album from Snoop Dogg?" Snoop pondered during a sit-down with BET.com. "I'd say about a 90% chance it can happen. You know, the 10% that lies out there is about availability as far as from Dr. Dre, not me, because I know and understand that I’m good, but when I’m with Dr. Dre, I’m great." -BET

NEWS: Lil' Wayne Finally Goes to Rikers


He’s been sentenced to a year but will likely only serve about 8 months. Wayne will reportedly remain in private custody the entire time:

“He is going to be in protective custody, because of who he is,” his lawyer Stacy Richman said. He did not want to, but the department of correction said it’s mandatory. He cannot be with other detainees.”

His last personal Tweet till his comeback:

“Law is mind without reason. ……………..I’ll return.”
