Here is a new track from N*E*R*D’s forthcoming project Seeing Sounds (Virgin) also releasing sometime this Summer. The song is called Spaz and I totally spazed when I heard this song on a commercial!! I was like, “that must be new!” So I went to searching all over the Internet and apparently I was right! The song is fun and energetic, I just rocked out to it in my room a few minutes ago, my Mom thinks I have gone mad and I love it! N*E*R*D is back peoples…

Here are two brand new tracks from Usher’s forthcoming album, Here I Stand (Jive), which also will be releasing this Summer. Trading Places, produced by Tricky Stewart of course, would be nothing short of a Bed 2.0; it even has that heavy string allusion. Needless to say I love the song and this is definitely a good look for Usher. This Ain’t Sex is vibrant and rockable, this song reminds me of a something Scar would do, I really dig it!

Here are two brand new tracks that leaked from Donnie Klang’s debut album, tentatively titled Come Into My World (Bad Boy), set to release this Summer. The first song, Doctor Love, reminds me a bit of some old school Stevie Wonder; maybe even a modern day Superstition? I love this song! Hopefully Donnie’s label considers this as a future single becos I’m really feeling it! Rolling Stone would definitely make a smooth ladder, in this case.

The San Antonio Spurs finally win a game against the New Orleans Hornets but the Hornets still lead the series (2-1). The Spurs win by 11 last night and take the victory of Game 3 (110-99). Tony Parker did not want to lose 3 games in a row to the Hornets so he stepped up his game a little bit. Parker totaled 31 points, 11 assists and 4 rebounds. Manu Ginobili also scored 31 points, 6 assists and 4 rebounds. Ginobili said after the victory last night:

“We know that going 3-0 — it’s never been done to come back like that,” said Ginobili, “Today, for us, it was a Game 7. We knew if we didn’t win today, it was almost over. So we had a different approach. We played with more passion, more edge.”

Celtics Lead (2-0)

(Photos: Getty Images) The Boston Celtics win again against the Cleveland Cavaliers. That’s two in a row (2-0). Beating the Cavs by 16, the final score was (89-73). It’s kind of surprising LeBron James hasn’t been shutting it down but these games can go either way. Kevin Garnett was on his game tonight and did not let up. K.G. scored 13 points, 12 rebounds, and 4 assists. Paul Pierce was even shocked to see that King James wasn’t beating them! Here’s what Pierce had to say:

“I’m a little shocked that he’s 8-for-42, but this is what we work on. We work on trying to contain him,” said Pierce, “LeBron is what makes them go. And if we can somehow control him, we control their team. And with the help of the guys around me, we’ve been able to do that.”

Ray Allen scored 16 points and 3 assists. Paul Pierce scored a total of 19 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 assists. I guess they are kind of succeeding in this theory cause it’s not looking to good for the Cavs. LeBron can even admit this himself. LeBron said after the game:
