MISS KEYS

here is Alicia Keys looking oh so stunning in her new video teenage love affair,hope you all enjoy it, its different from all otha videos, very original

"Teenage Love Affair"- personal favourite from the "As I Am" album

Robyn

An artist that I'm liking right now is Robyn. She's a refreshing change to the same old crap that everyones doing. She dares to be different, to stand out from the crowd and thats what I like about her. She always comes with something weird and quirky but she always pulls it off.
Watch the vid for her track 'Konichiwa Bitches' and you'll see what I mean.


'In the North Pole I'll ice you son lol'

Solange gets her shine on!


It's old news that Solange is trying to pursue a career in the music industry (think back to the Fighting Temptations album soundtrack) but she has actually released her new single "I Decided" on the USA version of iTunes now. If you haven't heard this song already I recommend you do. It's unlike anything else and she's defiantly not trying to be her sister, it is very different to Beyonce's stuff. Oh, and it's produced by the very talented Pharrell! It doesn't have Neptune's trademark "spacey" sound but it's still destined to be a hit. Looks like it's Kelly, Michelle, and Solange's time to step out of Bey's shadow.

Other blogs have been cussing her yellow "clown face" aswell, but I think the makeup is a good look on her, atleast it's creative.

Weekly Throwback



Hi people! This week I'm doing this feature thanks to Karma(if you want me to replace her just let me know... haha just messing!).

Originally I was gonna post a really old classic, but this song fits the bill. Destiny's Child No No No, the REMIX! Yes yes, birth on the year 1997! lol. I use to love this song, and honestly I can still listen to it. I have so many nice memories attached to this song, thanks to my older sis I have inherited a pretty good ear for music lol. I can remember me singing the No no part as a little kid (probz 8 years old) dancing around. I am actually emotionally scarred though as I can recall my mom telling me to stop "warbling", I think I was tryna do a Beyonce, like stretching out the notes LOL.. Im unable to sing properly in public now!

Anyway, enough of my life story! Sit back and enjoy this song, and I KNOW you'll be turning the volume up to grab a hairbrush to sing infront of the mirror.

Amerie is free

So Amerie has officialy 'severed ties' with Columbia records. Thats just fancy talk for saying she got dropped. I'm not surprised either i don't know where she was going with her latest album 'Because i love it.' It was rubbish there's only like 2 good songs on there and it didn't even get released in the U.S. I can't believe how low the quality of music went coz her first two albums are good 'Why don't we fall in love is a classic' as - Lovehate would agree- and the Ludacris remix took it to the next level. Anyway she is now in talks to sign with Def Jam so hopefully we can hear some better music from her in the future.

"Pretty pretty rickaaay RICKEY"


Guess what ladies (and guys- if you swing that way!) "Pretty" Ricky are back with a new member. I wasn't really much of a fan but I just thought I'd let you guys know. Since the main singer Pleasure left he has now been replaced by Ambition/4 play. As if these bunch of sex-obsessed guys weren't enough you now gotta add this "4 play" to the mix (pictured 2nd from the right by the way). I am actually in a bitchy mood today, so forgive me in advance lol, but seriously what is up with the one on the end on the right. He looks like a miniature Ne-yo with that hat and pose. And DON'T get me started on the fool in the white lol. Those glasses/goggles that he's wearing.. -shudder-. I'm done chatting crap for today! lol.

Mariah vs Mariah


You may think we're becoming Mariah crazy over here at neverxmind blogspot, but what can I say, the diva seems to be everywhere. Now, don't get mad peeps, I'm not knockin her hustle but don't you think Mariah has changed quite a bit over the years. She's still pretty either way but I actually thinks she looks better in her PRE-diva days, big curly hair and all. Fresh-faced! Au Naturale! Ok.. I'ma stop but you get the point I'm making. I'm taking it back to our previous posts, but do celebrities really have to change their image to make it big? I'm not saying this is what MC has done, 'cause you know considering the difference in fashion from 1990-'08 theres bound to be a change! You can already see this with Alicia Key's new "sexed" up appearance (then again it's not overwhelming because shes very classy), even Amerie, poor Amerie who's dropped off lol.

I guess we gotta face it. Sex sells. I'll leave you folks with wise words from Erykah Badu (if u aint heard of her hang ur head in shame!) on how to survive this industry.

"Create ur own publicity, do some hoooe shit" LOL. Love her sarcasm.

MTV BASE welcomes 10 years of success


This channel is popular amongst the British youth, especially those interested in black culture, and has appealed to us since 1999- the first broadcast. MTV Base has been successful in presenting us with the hottest "urban" music (whatever that means.. lol) around. I never quite understand why they called it urban, but you get what I mean, music of black origin. Trevor Nelson is the main presenter on the channel, aww bless his shiny cue-ball head, and I must admit he's done a great job. Apparantly 170-180 videos are played a day, and I'm hoping most of them aren't effin Soulja Boy with his friggin crank that shite!

Anyhows, I'm wondering if MTV Base will still continue to be successful since the (USA originated) BET channel has arrived. Only time will tell!
