Beyoncé's "I Am Here" Honors 9/11 on ABC News

10 years ago, the 9/11 attacks shocked, angered, saddened, and eventually unified the United States of  America.  In remembrance of those who lost their lives and love ones during that unfortunate time in history, ABC News compiled a beautiful montage to Beyoncé's "I Am Here."

Where were you when you heard of the September 11th attacks?

Waka Flocka - Round of Applause Remix f/ Drake

Here's the 3rd Drake related post for the day. "Round of Applause (Remix)" is a Waka Flocka x Drake collab produced by Lex Luger.  Maybe I'm not a Waka connoisseur, but what is the original? Never mind. I don't want to know.

XV - Batteries f/ Trae Tha Truth

XV's been on a roll this week.  "Batteries" features Houston rapper Trae Tha Truth whose voice is perfect for the dark beat provided by The Awesome Sound.  This is probably my favorite of the 3 tracks he's dropped this week.

Listen to "Batteries" below and tell me if you're feelin Vizzy's hustle.

Thank You Youtube For... R&B Reunions

Jodeci, H-Town, and Pretty Ricky all had their moments when they were on dominating the R&B airwaves.  I grew up on Jodeci, and I'm proud to claim that they're from my hometown of Charlotte, NC. But LAWD, LAWD, LAWD, for some reason Jodeci, H-Town, and Pretty Ricky thought it was a good idea to collaborate on a track in 2011.

I have been over here dying while watching this video.  From Baby Blue's foolish hair and irrelevant verse to the harmonizing during K-Ci's verse to whoever replaced Pleasure P humping the air, I can't. I just can't.




Let me know if you'll be adding "Knock Your Heels Off"to your "Sertafied" playlist anytime soon.
