Video: Wale "Chillin"


I know i'm a tidbit late, but this is the first time I've seen this video. Love Wale! The first time I ever heard or seen this DC native's face/music was in 2006 "Dig Dug (Shake It)". I checked him out and I really didn't know what to think.

Dig Dug Shake It - Wale!

Although, I believed he was a skilled emcee, I doubted the industry would take a rapper from DC seriously, but boy was I wrong. So, happy to see a Go-Go music lover get some shine.

Check out Wale's latest video "Chillin"!. If you've never been to DC trust me, its definitely a place you would love to visit. I attended Howard University, so I definitely appreciated shots of Ben's Chilli Bowl, Georgia Ave, and Cardoza High School which helped capture the true essence of DC. Ben's Chilli Bowl is the spot to get the best chilli dog and chilli cheese fries after you get your dance on at club Love. Mmm... I can taste that chilli now.


Oh yeah, the infamous Lady Gaga is featured in this video too, not much to say about that one, but she's getting paid branching outside of pop music. I ain't mad Lady Gaga, I ain't mad at ya!


Enjoy Wale's Introduction to Chocolate City!!!

Sunday's Best: Beyoncé Sweet Dreams



To step my blog game up a notch i'm going to introduce a brand new segment Sunday's Best, which will debut the hottest songs, videos, and photos of Timeless and Talented artists on Sunday. You like? Of course, I knew you would! Well, the premier artist is none other than the Queen Bey with her latest video "Sweet Dreams", which is one of my fav songs on her album.




What do I think? Unstoppable, Phenomenal Performer, & This Chica Can Do Whateva She Wants Cuz she's Bey! So, does it matter what I think? Nope!

Not Sunday's Best

Now, I absolutely love Drake and respect this brotha's hustle from playing a handicapped dude on Degrassi to an emcee that folks actually pay attention to his lyrical content, but his premiere video "Best I Ever Had" was extremely wack! Who produced this video? It had no visual concept of the actual song and the big breasted chicks were tacky. I don't know Drakey Poo you have to do better second time around and the BET performance didn't help you either... Poor thing.



Part 2 of Ju-Taun's interview will be up this week.
