New Music: Mariah Carey - The Art Of Letting Go (Teaser)

Mariah Carey teases fans with new single which is due out on November 11. Take a listen to the snippet.

Video: TLC Biopic vs Real Footage

Ratings for VH1's CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story, which premiered on Monday, October 21 at 9pm, were historic - VH1's highest-rated original movie ever, with a total of 4.5 million viewers.

The success of the film also led to spikes in sales of TLC tracks on iTunes R&B, as fans who were around during the group's career highs relieve the sounds of the time, and those who weren't, discover those same sounds.

Your trip down memory lane continues with this very cool edit put together by Vulture, which juxtaposes footage from the VH1 film with the same videotaped real-life moments for comparison.

See how well the film's production team did in recreating the originals in the video below.

Music Video: TLC "Meant to Be" featuring Ne-Yo

Days after premiering their long-awaited and quite dramatic biopic, ‘CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story,’ T-Boz andChilli release the video for ‘Meant to Be,’ a new song featured on their forthcoming greatest hits album, ’20.’

‘Meant to Be’ is a track that T-Boz co-wrote with Ne-Yo, who appears in the visual. The feel-good song is pretty much a testament to TLC‘s lasting bond and friendship. Plus the melody brings back a warm feeling of familiarity and comfort that is missed from the platinum-selling group’s early days.

The video features old clips from TLC’s past performances and home videos, which make fans remember why they were R&B’s biggest girl group.

“I said If I got nothing else / I got memories of what we felt / I said and laugh into myself, sometimes, nobody / Those silly reasons we would fight / Where no matter who was wrong or right / We were always right there / Sharing this love, sharing this life,” T-Boz kicks off in the first verse.

Chilli follows with the bridge and chorus, “Cause we’re new, said we’re always new / And no matter what would occur / That we were, meant to be / And it ain’t gonna be easy / That no matter what, baby we’re meant to be / And we ain’t never not know that we were always meant to be / Meant to be.”

’20,’ featuring hit songs like ‘What About Your Friends,’ ‘Creep’ and ‘Waterfalls,’ is out now.

The Robert Glasper Experiment is releasing Black Radio 2–the much anticipated follow-up to 2012′s critically acclaimed Black Radio–on October 29th through Blue Note Records. Here is a track from the upcoming album, like the last album this one is set to feature a plethora of guests from all musical backgrounds. Common, Lupe Fiasco, and Snoop Dogg (thought he was lion now?) all represent the hip-hop front while Marsha Ambrosius, Anthony Hamilton, Brandy, and Lalah Hathaway are stand-outs from soul and r&b backgrounds. The pianist’s third album with his ‘Experiment’ band also has collaborations with Fall Out Boy‘s Patrick Stump, Norah Jones, and Emeli Sandé. Unlike the original Black Radio LP, this will feature almost all original compositions. With RGE’s ability to blend genres and influences so seamlessly, we’re very excited to hear what they bring to the table.

New Music: TLC - Meant To Be

Andresflava to cover Urban World Film Festival Next Weekend Sept 18-22 in New York City

Am happy to announce that we will be covering this year's Urban World Film Festival here in NYC next weekend.


The Urbanworld® Film Festival is the largest internationally competitive festival of its kind. The five-day festival includes narrative features, documentaries, and short films, as well as panel discussions, live staged screenplay readings, and the Urbanworld® Digital track focused on digital and social media. Over the last fifteen years, Hollywood studios, indie film distributors, and established and emerging filmmakers have consistently chosen Urbanworld® to premiere box office and award-winning hits. Urbanworld® has also provided a platform for some of today’s leading brands seeking to reach key influencers across the industry and within the consumer marketplace. The Urbanworld® Film Festival is an initiative of the Urbanworld® Foundation Inc., a nonprofit organization founded in 1997 by Stacy Spikes. Urbanworld endeavors to consistently manifest its mission of redefining and advancing the roles of multicultural constituents in contemporary filmed entertainment. By implementing initiatives that actively support and develop content creators of color, Urbanworld significantly contributes to the evolution of the media and entertainment landscape and the diversity that it reflects.

The Line Up for this year festival kicks off Next Thursday Sept 19 with the premiere of Baggage Claim which stars Paula Patton, Adam Brody, Trey Songz, Derek Luke, Taye Diggs, Jill Scott, LaLa Anthony, Tia Mowry - directed by David E. Talbert - a flight attendant embarks on a thirty-day, thirty-thousand-mile expedition to "accidentally" meet and charm a potential suitor into becoming her fiancé.

"Baggage Claim" movie hits theaters on September 27, 2013.

Determined to get engaged before her youngest sister's wedding, flight attendant Montana Moore (Paula Patton) finds herself with only 30 days to find Mr. Right. Using her airline connections to "accidentally" meet up with eligible ex-boyfriends and scour for potential candidates, she racks up more than 30,000 miles and countless comedic encounters, all the while searching for the perfect guy. The film is produced by Scott Rudin, Dana Brunetti, and Michael De Luca. Baggage Claim movie trailer 2013 is presented in full HD 1080p high resolution.

On Friday we have two highlights of the festival

Gun Hill which is 84 mins long stars Larenz Tate stars as Bird and Trane, identical twins on opposite sides of the law. Bird is an undercover agent with a secret task force. Trane is a recently released convict who plays by a different set of rules. When Bird is brutally murdered, Trane assumes his brother’s identity in hopes of finding the killer, and gaining a second chance at life. Grappling with morality, fatherhood and love, Gun Hill asks this question: Can someone who is unredeemable become redeemed?

They Die By Dawn

THEY DIE BY DAWN is a film based on the true life African American Cowboys of the old west. With an all star cast including Giancarlo Esposito, Michael K Williams, Nate Parker, Jesse Williams, Rosario Dawson, Isaiah Washington, Erykah Badu, Bokeem Woodbine and Harry Lennix, the film sets out to tell the story of a showdown between the real life characters.

Nat Love (aka Deadwood Dick), Ben Hodges, Bill Pickett, Jim Beckwourth, Isom Dart, Bose Ickard, the outlaw Rufus Buck and Sheriff Bass Reeves were all famous and infamous cowboys whilst the strong and powerful Stagecoach Mary bore little resemblance to Calamity Jane.

On Saturday evening the highlight of the festival is the premiere of episode 3 of season 4 of Broadway Empire

Boardwalk Empire chronicles the life and times of Enoch “Nucky” Thompson, Atlantic City’s undisputed czar at a time when Prohibition proved to be a major catalyst in the rise of organized crime in America. Season 4 picks up eight months after the end of Season 3, in February 1924 – the year jazz “really came into being,” with fictional dancers/singers as well as the ubiquitous Charleston dance. Having barely survived an overthrow by Gyp Rossetti in Season 3, Nucky Thompson is laying low at the end of the Boardwalk as the season begins.
