R. Kelly dropped another track coming off his upcoming album, Untitled (working title), which is coming out in September 2009. Titled "Number One", it features, who seems to be jumpin' on every thing moving (*hint hint), Keri Hilson. With a chopped n' screwed feel to it, the beat is nice and easy to cruise to, and Kelly and Hilson deliver what they do best - croonin' to the masses. Shout outs to GWHH for the track.

Okay, so I'm getting a little sick and tired of re-posting posts that the IFPI and the RIAA keep shutting down so I'm going to try one more time: I do NOT host these files, they are released via exclusive releases given by the artist or sites, and that if I get another DMCA notice I'm going to start hosting my own blog so Google doesn't auto-delete my posts, which is so far totaling 8 posts. Please read this article, as you can see, even Google, who has been championing themselves as "pioneers" of the internet age, can't even seem to get DMCA notices right.

The Clipse team up with Keri Hilson and the Neptunes to drop "Eyes On Me", featuring a quick drum/snare beat, and signature Neptunes synths and the Clipse doin' their thang. Their album drops in September 2009, titled Till The Casket Drops. Check it, and shout outs to HIF for the song!

Coca-Cola, known for their glass bottles with the crisp (albeit addicting) flavour established itself as one of the leaders of the soft drink (or pop, depending on where your from) world had their original Coca-Cola bottles unchanged, with the same thing for years...until now.

I discovered Coke now offers Diet Coke and Coca-Cola Zero in bottle form in 355mL size. Head to your nearest restaurant or grocery store to pick up your case of these modern twists to a old-time classic.

Props to Ruth for putting up her jacket for the backdrop ;).

I incorrectly posted that the MVP (Most Valuable Puppet) commercials from Nike Basketball were on its last legs and finished, but they released four more videos featuring this year's MVP, LeBron James, and last year's MVP, Kobe Bryant. The first one is "Good Luck", made for the game on Sunday (where the Lakers won the 2009 Championship); the second shows them talking about "Movies over Pingpong"; the third shows the "Quickness" we all know Kobe for; and the last one is titled "Celebration" where Kobe celebrates his 4th ring. Check them out!

Mariah Carey dropped a bomb today with the track "Obsessed", coming off her upcoming album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, which is out on August 25th, 2009. Co-written and produced by The-Dream and Tricky Stewart, it takes plenty of shots at Eminem... ouch.

Slow-paced singing accompanying a fast-beat track - I think its a great track (sorry Slim), but WHY ARE YOU USING AUTO-TUNE MARIAH???
