Without Me - Fantasia ft. Kelly Rowland and Missy Elliott

Written by Adriana Morales

"Damnnnnnnn!" should be the first thought in your head when you watch the music video for Fantasias's newest track "Without Me" featuring Kelly Rowland and drumroll... Missy Elliott! "Yes!!!" should be the next thing you think or yell out loud. Don't worry, we did it too. Missy's presence has been long overdue in the music game. As someone who is always pushing the sound of hip-hop and R&B to new lengths, this song will not disappoint fans of either of the fab ladies on this song. This is going to be a new favorite for sure. Alright already, go watch the video!

Money - Ivy Levan

Written by Adriana Morales

Who is Ivy Levan? Well, we're almost as stumped as you are. After watching the music video for her song "Money" for the first time, one thing became clear, Ivy is as dangerous as her name. That is the way it seems anyway, when watching her sing about how much she loves money, and seemingly show what she'd do it for it as well. It sort of leaves you wondering just how serious she is about moolah by the end. It isn't a bad song though and her voice is surprising because you wouldn't match it to her looks.

I'm Out - Ciara ft. Nicki Minaj

Written by Adriana Morales

Whether you've been patiently waiting for it, or don't really care, Ciara and Nicki Minaj have released the visuals to "I'm Out". A song about feeling free and having fun after a break up; rubbing it in the ex's face all the while through her lyrics. It's about time Ciara gets back on her grind and puts more than just one video out a month. We hope to see more of Ciara, and often, especially every since "Body Party" debuted. (That song is addictive!)

Monday was Missy Elliott's birthday! Did you wish her a happy birthday on Twitter? She has done so much with and for women in music. This woman deserves much more recognition as a musical leader than given. Happy belated birthday, Missy! We love Fantasia's new hit "Without Me" featuring yourself & Kelly Rowland!

Flower Child - Nitty Scott, MC ft. Kendrick Lamar

Written by Adriana Morales

Newcomer to the music industry, but not to hip-hop overall, Nitty Scott, MC stunned everyone when she appeared on BET's The Cypher in 2011. Since then, this emcee has been releasing new music and earlier in June, she released a beautiful track titled "Flower Child" featuring Kendrick Lamar. Why is it beautiful? Well, the beat alone is dream-like and her lyrics plus Lamar's vocals make for a song that will put you in a trance you won't want to get out of.

Is There Any Hope For Amanda Bynes?

Written by Adriana Morales

Human beings tend to disagree about many things, but if there is anything we should all agree on, it's the fact that Amanda Bynes needs to climb down the crazy tree, once and for all. Seriously, why isn't anyone helping this girl? She clearly needs love and a big, genuine hug. Instead of bashing her, someone who she sees as a friend should really try to reach out to her. She's been calling everyone ugly, from Drake to most recently, Zac Efron and currently in the process of getting surgery done on her entire face. Amanda, the only thing that is ugly, is the way some of your "fans" encourage your self-harm (self-harm on many different levels) and even praise it. If you want to switch your style up and change careers, by all means, go ahead. Just know that you were and still are, very beautiful and whatever has you thinking you need to do this to your face, we hope it goes away soon.

Everybody Knows (Douchebag) - Dustin Tavella

Written by Adriana Morales

We're just as guilty as everyone else of being intrigued by the resultant relationship between Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber. Dustin Tavella joins the club with the official video to "Everybody Knows (Douchebag)". Famous tough guy, Danny Trejo, stars in the video and a certain someone does a quick cameo appearance as well. Known to throw shade at the Biebster, it's hard not to wonder if this was another sly way of dissing him. Either way, it sure made for laughs and the song is pretty catchy too.

Treasure - Bruno Mars

Written by Adriana Morales

I didn't realize that Bruno Mars had released the music video to "Treasure" on June 14th, but I'm glad I stumbled onto it today. It has such a great 70's vibe and the video accompanies everything that defined that era. What I love about Mars and his posse is that they don't mind to let loose and be goofy. You can always count on his music and their presence in his music videos to bring a smile to your face. Hope you bop to this as much as I am!
