Here is the new Estelle video for “Fall in Love” premiered today and was shot in Brooklyn (possibly the Forte Greene area), interestingly enough the track actually has two versions. First up the Estelle featuring Nas version…

and now the John Legend version….

So its been a while since I’ve blogged, I was in South Africa at the World Cup (more to come on that). But in keeping with the fact I was at the World Cup I wanted to start my first post back with some related content. Chinese Assassin DJ’s put together a mix in commemoration of the 2010 world cup in South Africa, with just a week left of World Cup action its good I deliver this to you now. Shouts to Omar for holding things down while I was gone.

New mixtape from Estelle and DJ Trauma to hold folks over until her new album, All Of Me, drops later this summer. Need a sample? I got you.

Check out “Keep It LIke It Is,” produced by the Supa Dups, below…

Not all together on one song though, unfortunately.

I’ve been sitting on these two joints for a few days. I figured it’d make sense to give them both to you at once. Check out the music below…

Download them both here: Nas & Damain Marley Feat. Junior Reid – “Ancient People” || Estelle feat. Nas - “Fall in Love”.

Enjoy.

I’m all for Reggae artists crossing over and getting a piece of the American market. Demarco’s new track “Show it”, has that potential to cross over but it doesn’t have many elements of “Reggae” to it. I was trying to tag it and I just couldn’t put reggae down for it - its more of an R&B track to me. The production is very R&B as well as the language they use its very much American (note the blaring use of “shorty”). As it stands for an R&B track it speaks for itself…. as a reggae well ummmm no. Check the video below.

Drake shot the “Find Your Love” video in Kingston, Jamaica and got the help of Mavado who plays a gangster in the forbidden love story. I thought Drake was an actor? Not the most convincing role from Drake but in any case here is the video. And if the patios was too much, check this for a translation.

Melanie Fiona was featured on Billboard.com doing a cover of the classic Sam Cooke song “Cupid”.

I haven’t listened to this one yet, but based on premise alone, it has to be decent. Plus with the weather looking to be nice this weekend, I figured I’d give folks something to bump.
