…with the unique name of the Sidekick 2009. Get it? It’s a Sidekick, and it’s being released in 2009. How clever!

Does anyone still use Sidekicks? Let us know if you do… but I just don’t see them around anymore especially when a Blackberry Bold is free these days

I know a lot of people might think this just sounds like noise…this record is crazy! Last time I was in New Orleans I heard this song twenty or thirty times a night on Bourbon Street. Definitely a great dance track… screw the Stanky Leg..it’s all about New Orleans bounce:

To get an idea of how one is supposed to dance to bounce music, check out this Youtube link below. LOL (NSFW)

The effects are amazing…but according to West himself, some other artist is doing the same thing with a video of theirs…so he isn’t releasing this as an official single.

This is not the next single, “Amazing” is the next single.

This is the video we’ve been working on for the last month.

We know there is another video out there using the same technique so we were forced to drop it now.

The video for “Welcome To Heartbreak” was directed by Los Angeles, CA-based photographer Nabil of Nabilstudios.com. The man has done some amazing photography work with some of your favorite artists and personalities. Check out some images after the cut, courtesy of his web site:

Kanye West and girlfriend Amber Rose

Kid Cudi, Kanye West, and ‘Ye’s rumored new girlfriend Amber Rose were seen at the Z Zegna fashion show during Mercedes Benz fashion week in NYC.

Is she hot? I’m having trouble figuring out if Kanye killed it….or lost. Weigh your opinion in the comments section.

Props to CL for the pic.

I’m going to wake you up this fine Christmas morning with a promotional photo of R&B singer Teairra Mari looking her finest in ages yet!

Check out her new single, “Hunt 4 U” featuring Pleasure P, below:

And I’m gonna throw a Teairra throwback your way…. check out “Lala” off her debut album on Roc-A-Fella records below:

I’m gonna admit, I’m a big fan of Teairra Mari. I’m not crazy about her new single (keep in mind, her debut album was DOPE and set a big bar for herself. I remember being amazed when I first heard it on loop @ Kanye’s Late Registration listening party back in ‘05), but maybe it’ll grow on me. Nonetheless, the girl is bangin and is getting paper so I can’t hate.

Sidebar: I was at Def Jam the other day and a good friend J.D. brought up an interesting question: Who’s hotter? Teairra Mari or Christina Milian? You decide…post in the comments. My vote’s after the cut…

…and Jay-Z’s “Hello Brooklyn 2.0″ featuring Lil’ Wayne is still a fucking dope song. People love to hate on Jigga’s American Gangster album… but you have to admit this beat, sample, and Wayne feature make for a classic hit.

This is a nice record to start your morning off. Rumor has it this is the first record off India.Arie’s fourthcoming album, yet to be titled.

Listen: India.Arie featuring Musiq Soulchild- “Chocolate High” (MP3)

Silberstein says… give this a few listens and you’ll learn to love it.

Bonus: India.Arie- “This Too Shall Pass” (From India.Arie’s last album, Testimony, Vol. 1: Life & Relationship)

…is Plies really the future of hip-hop? Vibe mag seems to think so…but does anyone find his voice annoying as fu*k?

Bonus Audio: Plies- “Me And My Goons”

This has to be a joke.

But then again…this record is kinda hot:

Plies- “I Chase Paper”

1/2 of me says he’s tight, 1/2 of me says fu*k outta here. What do you guys think….

Killed That presents what we think will be the HOTTEST record for early 09 - DeX!’s spanish-mambo-meets-pop-and-B record, “Mentirosa.” Courtesy of Young & Rich Entertainment.

Listen: DeX!- “Mentirosa” (Download MP3) (ZSHARE)

What do you think? This has some HUGE potential…loving the hook and beat. Looking forward to hearing this in the clubs..
