Usher's Best Dance Crew

 

Thursday night six crews took to the stage on a lot at MTV for this weeks, “America’s Best Dance Crew Challenge”.  The king of R&B himself, [lastfm]Usher[/lastfm] doled out the musical assignments for each of them via video and then the stage got real sexy.    Hailing from the “A” ,it was only fitting that


The crew from his home area kick off the competition.  Jungle Boogie has been KILLING it the last few episodes.  I mean I have always liked the swagger of this crew but the continuously take their moves and their vibe along with their choreo to the next level on the regular.  This week their task was to take on some “gliding”.  The knee glides were most impressive and the definitely made big moves as they held it down for the only remaining crew to rep the south region.

 


Back on top this week was Poreotix!  They had Usher & [lastfm]Lil’ Jon [/lastfm], “Yeah” and literally brought the club to the stage!  It was non-stop, action, tricks, and male booty shakin’!

 


Saltare was the one who had their banner fall, but I really have to give it to them.  They went hard before they went home and I respect that.  They proved they had the moves with and without the jump-ropes, but mostly with.  This crew was themselves and made no apologies for it.  The tricks they did this week for the fighting of the video, “Caught Up” left me speechless (that’s not an easy task, I talk for a living damn it. 

Going up against BluPrint Crew I was worried from jump, the other group had earned immunity two weeks prior and even though the crew isn’t technically from the USA they usually come with moves that would earn them immunity regularly if that were a part of the show.


Next week?  I’m going to call it right now.  Hype 5-0.  I love the heart of this crew, but I believe that they can no longer reach the bar of the crews they are currently competing with.  If  Saltare hadn’t had two weeks in a row prior that had stunts with mistakes, it would have been our islanders that we bid farewell to.


Aboout the Judges: [lastfm]Omarion[/lastfm] has gotten a little easier on the crews as the weeks go by.  [lastfm]Lil’ Mama[/lastfm] cracks me up no matter what her critique is.  Did you see [lastfm]JC Chasez[/lastfm] flirting with that girl from Bluprint?  I mean wow, she’s a youngin’, don’t be looking at her like that!

Alicia Keys vs. Beyonce

Beyonce and Alicia Keys joined forces for the first time live for their song, “Put it in a love Song“!

I hear this debate all the time? Who can sing Better? Who is more talented? You Decide? Why can’t we like them both?

 

 

On A Positive Note is good to see 2 black women come together despite them being competition!

 My Choice…Sorry I’m a B Stan for Life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"This Too Shall Pass" - badass music videos in the post-video age

Sure, the song title is Jewish…but we’re not really talking about anything Jewish, just a heads-up. Though it is interesting that the name of OK Go’s newest hit song is a popular Jewish phrase (often inscribed on jewelry, such as Yeshiva Girls rings), I could not find any relationship between the song/band and Judaism.

So let’s instead talk about badass music videos, which “This Too Shall Pass” certainly is. We’re gearing up over here for the Washington Jewish Music Festival, and though we certainly listen to some terrific music, we definitely don’t see any music videos! These videos used to be prime advertising opportunities for musicians and  bands – see a cool video, buy the CD, right?

But since CD sales are down, pirated music is so easily accessible, and even legal, purchase of MP3s is also so easy, nobody wants to make the  videos anymore. But we still want to see them, even if MTV disagrees (noted by their official dropping of “Music Televison” from their network description).

Even if musicians don’t have MTV to showcase their awesome videos, thanks to this whole internet evolution, they have YouTube, Vevo, and the ability to go crazy viral. OK Go created the video for “Here It Goes Again” independently of their record label (which they have since left). With little more than four  treadmills, a camera, tripod and killer choreography, they created a web phenomenon – and probably a whole new fan base.

But some artists want to make their videos with some more money, which is fine too, if they have it. Lady Gaga’s new music video for “Telephone,” featuring Beyonce, is completely ridiculous…but I can’t stop watching it! The costumes, the storyline…the song, meh, not so much. But give me a telephone hat and glasses made out of cigarettes, and I’m on board!

So what’s my point? Nothing huge…I just want you to watch these music videos! Explore the internet, and find those videos that speak to you…dig out those old videos that were so fun to watch 15 years ago. I’m sure you’ll discover that music videos are a form of entertainment you have seriously been missing in your life.

And then don’t forget to check out the Washington Jewish Music Festival on June 6-13 (line-up to be announced soon!). Maybe you can talk our bands into creating some viral videos for your viewing pleasure.

MTV's "16 And Pregnant" To Change To More Accurate Title "16 And A Slutty, Trampy Whore"

Viacom, the parent company of MTV Networks, announced that they will be changing the title of the popular series “16 And Pregnant” to a more accurate title of “16 And A Slutty, Trampy Whore.”  The network perhaps realized that kids need to understand that kids shouldn’t be having kids like the whores and white trash guys  they watch on television.  Condoms and other birth control methods should be brainwashed into the brains of the teen viewers watching the reality show.  The new title and format will introduce abstinence by couples that shouldn’t reproduce at all because of their horrible physical appearance.  Bringing an “ugly” child into this world shouldn’t be something that the show should encourage because these fat, ugly, or both couples should know that from their own persona experience.  The title will take effect next season.

A Michael Jackson Story

A Michael Jackson Story
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Gianni_Truvianni]Gianni Truvianni

I for my part have never been much of a fan of what is commonly referred to as “pop music” or “rock music” but it was one day with time to spare that I bought a book about the hard rock group “Van Halen” that I read the following story.

Michael Jackson recorded a song called “Beat It” which was quit a big hit back in the early 80s specially on MTV, which was relatively new at the time. It was this particular song which featured a guitar solo by Dutch born guitarist “Edward Van Halen”; who also lent his name to the band I was reading about at the time.

In the USA, rightly or wrongly; depending on one’s point of view which I will not comment on as this is not the reason I am writing this article but to mention a fact; there are radio stations which will not play any music by nonwhite artists or at least such was the case at the time of the release of the “Thriller” album. This the album on which the song “Beat It” first came out on.

Concerning the racial issue however it was not something I found out about in this “Van Halen” book; as this I knew before hand yet what I did find out was that many of these radio stations which would not play songs by black artist actually played the song “Beat It”. This in a strange fashion however, given they would limit themselves to only playing the guitar solo which is done by Edward Van Halen; a white guitar player.

It was also in this book that I read with regards to the “Beat It” solo which many consider to be the best part of the song; that Edward Van Halen stated that he was never paid or received any royalties from it, though his efforts are mentioned in the album’s credits. Van Halen is also said to have been asked to be in the video which would be played almost nonstop on MTV yet refused to appear, claiming he did not feel the song would be a hit which apparently it was.

My name is Gianni Truvianni, I am an author who writes with the simple aim of sharing his ideas, thoughts and so much more of what I am with those who are interested in perhaps reading something new. I also am the author of the book entitled New York’s Opera Society which is now available on Amazon.
