LADIES LOVE THE ‘I AM HIP-HOP ICON’

Posted on October 12th, 2011 by Trina in NEWS |

LL Cool J was honored at BET’s 6th annual Hip-Hop award show with the ‘I Am Hip-Hop Icon’ Award. While honored a rap superstar, LL’s lyrics and deamonor is a easy disguise for a smooth R&B veteran.

The lyricist began his career in 1984 as the clever lyricist on the Def Jam label and spent two decades topping charts and living up to his name: making sure us ladies love him through his whole journey. LL Cool J is considered one of heavyweights of hip hop because of his longevity and the respect he’s earned and maintained.

LL has transitioned from the music to acting but his art his still loved by his lady followers. He currently stars on CBS’ hit show NCIS: Los Angeles.

Let’s reminisce on some of the gifts that LL’s given us. Continue after the jump for ‘I Need Love’ and ‘Paradise’ throwbacks.

Amerie Reveals Name Change

Posted on July 16th, 2010 by ThisisRnB in NEWS |

If you see Amerie’s name spelled with two I’s from now on, that’s not a typo. The “1 Thing” singer has officially changed the spelling of her name. The Grammy-nominated artist, who now goes by Ameriie, added an I to her name to reflect positive energy. She announced the change to Rap-Up.com last month, but didn’t go public with it until her new Twitter page (@ItsAmeriie) was set up.

Music: Keri Hilson x Timbaland x Trey Songz x Rich Girl x Fabolous x Rick Ross

Posted on June 13th, 2010 by ThisisRnB in MUSIC |

Here are 3 brand new records off Tapemasters Inc “The Future of R&B Vol. 33″ Mixtape. This latest edition is hosted by the princess of So So Def, Dondria. The first joint is a hot duet by Keri Hilson & Timbaland titled, “Hold Your Breath”. This is actually the record they performed at a show in NYC a few months back. I’m not sure if it is a left over from Tim’s latest album, or if it is something in the works for Keri’s new one. I kind of hope so, because it’s dope. The second joint is by Trey Songz and maybe Amerie. It is titled, “Let’s Chill” and it is a remake of the classic Guy song. I say maybe Amerie because part of it sounds like her and part of it doesn’t. The 3rd record is the brand new remix to Rich Girl’s record “Swagga Right” now featuring Fabolous and Rick Ross. You can’t go wrong with those features. Check them out and stay tuned!!

Music: Amerie – Who’s Gonna Love Me [New Single]

Posted on May 19th, 2010 by ThisisRnB in MUSIC |

As promised earlier today Amerie drops her brand new record, “Who’s Gonna Love Me,” produced by The Inkredibles. I must say I’m feelin it at first listen. I felt her last album was decent and should have done much better at retail. This could be a good move going forward though. I think this could get some play. It is slated to be the first single off a new album titled, Cymatica Vol. 1 Cymatics. Shout to YK2 and Rap-Up. Check it out, what do you think?
