Ginny Blackmore recently came into the Kiss FM / Clear Channel office to perform for staff and viewers watching at home via live stream of her infectious track entitled “Bones”. I previously wasn’t familiar with her music but after yesterday’s performance she really made me a believer in her talent. The Epic Records artist has an amazing voice, charismatic attitude, and offers a powerful delivery. Be on the look out for her upcoming project.

VIDEO: 50 Cent – Major Distribution Ft. Snoop Dogg (Lion) & Young Jeezy

50 Cent releases the visuals for his newest single “Major Distribution”.  Snoop Lion and Young Jeezy come through with their respective verses and look out for a Maybach Music Group chain cameo.  With Young Jeezy and 50 Cent sharing bad blood towards MMG head honcho Ricky Rawse, it looks like the beef is still very much alive.  The chain more than likely belongs to MMG artist Gunplay who not long ago suffered a beat down at the BET awards caught from 50 Cent and his affiliates.

VIDEO: Tha Bizness Gives Insight Into Their Production For Kendrick Lamar’s “Sherane”

Considered by many as a modern day classic rap album, Good Kid M.a.a.d. City opens up with the intro track entitled “Sherane”.  This particular track is a favorite of mine off the album and being the first record it pulls you in and sets up Kendrick’s story appropriately.  Take a look at the video below to see an in depth look by producers Tha Bizness on how the beat was actually constructed.  All we need now is an official instrumental to be released to vibe out to.
