(Photos: John Ricard) As you may or may not recall, we posted photos of Lil Mama and T-Pain on the set of What It Is (Strike a Pose) a few weeks back. And oddly enough, we never saw the final product of the aforementioned. Instead, last Thursday, her new video for L.I.F.E made its online debut. I suppose the label decided to switch things up a bit and hold off on releasing the T-Pain featured single, and release “L.I.F.E.” instead. But anyhow, here are the photos of Lil Mama on the set of “L.I.F.E.” Check out more after the break…

Despite rising gas prices, this is one reason why I will never resort to public transportation. Just watch the video … please. A free Khia CD goes to the first person who can correctly identify the number of times this crazy bitch used the word “shawty!”
Ciara has a new track that has leaked and supposedly is going to be the first single and on her new album, Fantasy Ride. The titled of the track is titled, “High Price” featuring Ludacris. When I hear this song, there’s is no “Ciara” vibe. This is not a track you would expect from Ciara but it has similar bass lines to one of her previous tracks, “Oh”, which is also featuring Ludacris. I guess I’ll let you guys decide for yourselves. Click the following link to listen.
Mariah Carey just premiered her new video for her second single, “Bye Bye”. I guess this is the video that started the rumors of Mariah and Nick Cannon dating, which escalated to them getting married. I’m not sure but they do look pretty happy in this video. Click play to check it out.

What gives a rapper the extra “umph” they need to take the game by storm is; Originality, or in this case, “originel-ity.” The new comer was given the name Originel because of his one of a kind swagger. The “E” was taken from his prior nickname and tossed in his rap name to give it a twist. The Brooklyn-bred rapper from Bushwick began to rap at the tender age of 16, and a few years later had his mind focused on seriously pursuing a career in music. Among other hip-hop heavyweights, Originel credits Notorious B.I.G., Jay-Z, R. Kelly as his main influences. “I consider myself a lyricist. I have a way with words and I’m blessed to put words together the way I do,” says Originel.
His talent is reflected in the 30 plus songs he has recorded thusfar. Although he was initially a local battle rapper, Originel has evolved into more of a lyricist and prefers to make startling music rather than lack substance in his rhymes. Originel has yet to collaborate with any major artists but supports industry unity and extends open invitations to make hits with anyone who shares his musical vision. His latest single “Fresh from the Face to the Floor” has gained a buzz from a single mixtape placement to a national level through Myspace.com. Originel’s passion and drive for music is what makes him more of a complete artist. “Originel-ity,” is not only the title of Originel’s debut album but it is original music that he plans to deliver to fans.
