Anywayz I like the song, its cute and airy nothing too heavy or world changing - just a nice little ditty! Buts Its Fresh & hot, im feeling the heat.. so here it is

Shardinay - Oh Boy (What a Load of BEEEEEEEEP)

Ok Now normally I blog about hot new fresh & HOT hits and remixes. This next track cannot in anyway be played in any such category. It’s awful. BUT! Its genius! It’s so bad it’s hilarious and I love the fact that someone who is so bad at what they do can still get so much hype and buzz about them. I feel a bit sorry for her as I’d hate to have the whole world laughing at me, but I don’t understand why none her friends have taken her aside and told her to try a different career. As a comedienne she works! I tell ya I’ve had so many belly laughs over this track and the various response videos that it has spawned. I mean, the girl has had me bending up so much I’m blogging about her! So fair play.... Her internet game is on point all be it for the wrong reasons!!! Oh Booooy!

Check this Vid out by Swear down TV



And here's the original track for your listening pleasure.

Usher ft Jay Z - Hot Toddy



Usher is not messing about!!! He's got a new Album coming out next month and judging by the first single from this ablum its gonna be HUUUUUUGE!!! The beat is siiiiick! some next level bass going on there. You can tell he's not messing about he's called in Hove aka Jay Z so straight away thats a guranteed number of sales lol. Na but the track stands strong as banger!!! I LOVE IT! Its definately not one for a night cap unless uve got something else planned before bed hehe..Figa It Out..

Ms Dynamite - What You Talking About

Ms Dynamite has well and truly been working hard this year. Now she has made a video and track that in my opinion could be the next Boom for her. The video is bright and retro in feel, Reminiscent of Rianna's Rude boy (but at the same time not really lol) she looks great and sounds great. showing her flows are versatile and making the statement that you cant mess with her. I feel that its about time she got the love that she had again, and the respect that she truly deserves. Redlights on the beat so you know its fire!!!! Loving it! Figa It Out x

Big Boi - Shutter Bug (Jack Beats Remix)

Now I absolutely love the original to this. But I have to say that Jack Beats have made a fantistic effort on the remix. I cant find it anywhere!!! And i'm gutted coz i know that it would murder any set! Annie Mac was the first person to play it and its not been released, but If you're reading this and happen to have a copy going spare..do the right thing lol! anyways here it is, you when u press play just know that i'm shocking out! Figa It Out x

Rick Ross ft Styles P- BMF

I Dont really need to a single word about this song. If youve been raving anywhere in the planet you are likely to have lost your m ind to this at some point, If you havent had the p-;easure if hearing it in a club you've probably copped it on BET if not here it is..set to be one of the biggest tracks of 2010 if its not already that is..



I keep telling you Rick is back..I dare you tell me he's not huge (literally and lyrically hehe)

Jigg ft Rick Ross - Ohhh!

Rick Ross is on fire right now! Might have to post some of his other offerings after i finish with this post! Ricky Ross always picks the best beats...I'M waffling...LETS GET BACK TO THE TRACK AT HAND..This isnt actually Rick's track its by a relitavely unknown rapper called Jigg.
I say unknown but he has worked with Lil Wayne and is in Wikipedia!! lol..

this is what Wiki has to say about him:
Jiggolo (JIGG) is a rapper/songwriter and producer from Thomasville, Georgia. He is currently signed to The Legendary Suave House Record Label imprint. In addition he also owns the Royal Reign LLC production company and founder of the Man Up Squad


Rick Steals the show for me though. The Sample going through it also adds that pizzazz I feel makes the track. I thought by 2010 we would all be sick of samples in hip hop tracks but this so works! Love it!

Trinity Band - Standing Alone in Originality

Now the Trinity Band are one of the most talented and original bands out there full stop. Yes its a bold statement but its true..trust me i'm a DJ.

The Trinity Band are a breath of fresh air in room that quite frankly smells stale. The Trinity Band have refreshed and revitalised the word 'Uraban' without compromising on quality. Its an urban sound that anyone can relate to, and recognise as real music. They sing, rap, do covers and oalso play their own original music. Taking music back to its grass roots whilst keeping their fingers firmly on the pulse of what their auidence needs and wants.

Theyve been working hard individually and as collective for many years now and have truly honed their skills to create an uplifting and vibe packed sound. Here is a little clip of them in rehearsals performing one of my favourite songs of all time. Its called 'I will not give up' and trust me it has inspired me and given me a kick up the old jacksy a few times.

They have their own website where you can get more info in what they are up and meet the members of the band: www.thetrinityband.com also follow them twitter- www.twitter.com/thetrinityband

You know why Originality Stands Alone when you watch these guys live:

Doomman - (#DTTM) Dont Talk To Me

Now I kept on hearing this song but I had no clue who it was, what it was called etc. Until i saw DTTM on someones status and being the nosey girl that I am had to ask what does that mean? Thats when it all clicked into place for me. Its just grown and grown on me!

Its by a Uk artist by The Name of Doom Man and it has to be said that this song sounds like nothing else out there at the moment, or in the past that i can think of really. Minimal beat, cheeky flow & Hook. I'm not really too sure how to classify it..but those are the best tunes! they create their genre..You will be hearing a lot of this song, look out for it in my sets too. I believe he is currently touring the UK so when you get a chance check out his show and let me know what he is like live!



Set To be released in August 2010 you know what to do..dont talk to me till you do! Figa It Out x

Trey Songz ft Niki Minaj - Bottoms Up

Ok so you know I love me some Trey! Well He's got a brand new Album coming out in September called 'Passion, Pain & Pleasure'I know i'm copping een if i hadnt heard anything from it i'd probably still indulge..anywyas his first single from this alnum is 'Bottoms Up' ft My girl Niki Minaj. I have to be honest though Niki is the best part of the song she just kills it with her flow!

It has to be said that this is a million dollar collabo here's how it all came about



And here's the actual track. I'm Mac Ds up in here - loving it!

Bobby Valentino - Phone Number

I've always loved our Bobby, (not sure what he goes by since dropping the Valentino then the V...) but felt a little sorry for him. He keeps getting dropped moving from camp to camp but he is always consistent in his R&b offerings. Obvisouly hasnt really resonanted with UK public as much as I believe he should have but here his latest sex obsessed ditty lol.

I like it..would NOT partake with him but quite happy to hear him croon :)

B-Mus aka Khalil - Murder Scene

Shouts to Rukus for showing me this track! Team UK going in big! Story telling on point!! Quality Video, and people on World Star even like it!! You NEVER get them saying anything good about UK tracks but they did for this one says alot! I wont spoil the story for you...watch..

Dirty Money - Hello Good MOrning

Loving this one. I Love Dirty Money full stop, think that Diddy cleaverly created something that is definately going to challenge R&b as we know it today! But still stinks of Diddy! Yup i rate them that highly. Dawns voice alone..jeeez! they are definately forward thinking, love all the stuff i've heard from them so far! and this one in particular bwoy!!! TI smacks it!! and then goes back and punches it in the face!!! LOVE IT!!

Niki Minaj ft Sean Garrett - Massive Attack

Loving it! Its different to say the least! Nice bright video cant watch the bone crunching dancers though they freak me out. Notice how she looks different in every single clip but canty fault her she's doing it big right now! Barbie power! I like the fact that it sounds differnt from everything else out there right now. she gets hated on byt as you know I rate the Harijuko highly.
