Listen: Who's Gonna (Nobody) remix - @chrisbrown & @OGKeithSweat

As if the original wasn't enough?

Chris Brown recruits Keith Sweat for his remix to Who's Gonna (Nobody) from his Royalty album. The original sampled the latter's legendary song of the same name. This is easily one of my favorite tracks on the album already but the remix is definitely shot it straight into my "Get the Drawers" playlist. Ladies and Gents do me a favor. Sit back, relax, crack open that bottle of vino, and press play.

Listen: Simple Things (Re-lit) - @miguel ft. @chrisbrown & @1future

While Miguel doesn't need any features, they definitely don't hurt. 

Simple Things isn't a new song. Along with Miguel's newest album Wildheart, Simple Things was released earlier this summer. With the help of Brook Dleau, he decided to remix or "Re-lit" the song recently. Chris Brown adds some dimension with smooth background vocals in Miguel's first verse. He also gets his own verse afterwards. We all know that Chris wouldn't just settle for the background. Future's verse speeds things up at the end to build a musical momentum. With a sultry guitar loaded beat, the song was already sexy, but now it is attractive to an even bigger audience than before. Smart move Miguel. Listen to the ReLit version of Simple Things below after the break.

Watch: Liquor/Zero - @chrisbrown

Never trust a big butt and a smile. Didn't BBD teach you better Chris? Things take a turn for the worst in the double-sided Chris Brown video for Liquor and Zero.

Liquor has been killing the radio airwaves since it released in the summer. The visual is fire per usual for the do all veteran from Virginia. Black lights, Hopsin contacts, unfocused lenses and great dancing make for a trippy visual to a great song. The B-side, Zero takes over the second part of the story. Although it's a break up song, it still retains a dance vibe reminiscent to Ne-Yo's Go On Girl story. It's over but Chris Brown isn't trippin.' "Guess how many f*cks he gives." Enjoy the double sided Liquor/Zero music video below.

Watch: Play No Games - @BigSean featuring @ChrisBrown & @tydollasign

I say it time and time again, I miss the 90s.

Big Sean takes us back with his new visual of Play No Games. It reminds us of the days where you couldn't miss an episode of Martin. Chris Brown and Ty Dolla $ign feature on the song where many others including Shia Labeof, Brotha Man from the fifth floor, and Martin Lawrence himself make cameos. Big Sean kinda took a Bronson Baby Blue/Coming to America approach. See for yourself below.

Listen: All Falls Down - @Usher & @ChrisBrown

Usher and Chris Brown link up again

Last time these two linked up in studio Breezy was on probation and they produced a grammy nominated song in New Flame featuring Rick Ross. Things have changed. This time they slow things down from Pop to R&B on Usher's brand new track All Falls Down. Not sure if we can expect it on the long awaited album from the 36 year-old vocalist. With no further wait, All Falls Down Usher Raymond.

Listen: Post to Be @1Omarion @chrisbrown @jheneaiko

Listen: Do Not Disturb - @TeyanaTaylor & @ChrisBrown

If the video snippet of Do Not Disturb by Teyana Taylor wasn't enough for you, you can stream the whole thing this time.

Apologies, it's not the entire visual but the audio should suffice with Chris Brown's verse. I've always enjoyed Chris Brown on duets with female singers because he never tries to upstage her. Whether it's his song or her's he does just enough to make the song a hit. You can say the same for Do Not Disturb. Enjoy after the break.

@TeyanaTaylor VII Preview

It's been awhile since we've heard from G.O.O.D Music's first lady.

Last time was on Cruel Summer with a few assists on hooks and a great track with John Legend called Bliss. Teyana Taylor is gearing up for her debut album VII set to release on November 11th. Her most recent move was a brand new single, Do Not Disturb which features Chris Brown. This steamy track is bound to be on every club DJ's sex set. This track and some of her other singles like Business, Request, and Broken Hearted Girl featuring Fabolous are clearly bedroom bangers. You can stream watch her video snippets these songs in the Youtube playlist below. Pre-order VII on iTunes now! Enjoy, stay woke.

YMCM or Bust

For awhile I was thinking rappers on the tail end of their careers were just headed to the money.

Nothing wrong with that, especially when you've contributed to the art the way Busta Rhymes has. Yesterday, he announced we would be parting ways with YMCMB after one album, Year of the Dragon. To be perfectly honest I couldn't tell you two songs off that album being that I did not listen to it. Don't mistake me saying that for it was a bad album, I just wouldn't know.

People didn't like the move to YMCMB from jump. I'm not saying that is a sell-out label but I know a few bloggers who'd say it is. Busta Rhymes had come off success with Look at Me Now with Chris Brown and signed a huge contract with them and Google play. The money was probably right and it's hard to say no to that. He described it as "A Milestone in his career thus far." It's funny the most paid man in YMCMB (and 4th in hip-hop according to Forbes) has the least to do with the music (Not taking away from how hard he works as a businessman but I'm just a music fan). Oh well I guess...

It hurts to say it but many label Bussa Buss as the greatest emcee without a GREAT album. Many singles come to mind but no great project when you think about it. YMCMB wasn't really gonna do it anyway were they? The lead single King Tut did fairly well being that the album was a free download, thank you Google. Thank You featuring Q-Tip and recently Calm Down with Eminem might be the best thing to happen to Busta Rhymes since signing his contract anyway. Oh well, all in all both parties agree and there are no hard feelings. Busta Rhymes went on Sway in the Morning and described the issue to be "Creative Differences." You can catch the interview here (via youtube).

Drake - Views From the 6 Announcement

Very little is considered coincidence in my eyes.
In the past 24 hours WTM posted about PARTYNEXTDOOR and Majib Jordan's upcoming projects. Then OVO head Drake decides to release the name of his next album. Views From the 6 has no release date set. I imagine the Toronto based rapper will get to work following his tour with Mentor Lil Wayne. He's already been seen in studio with Chris Brown signifying the end of their beef. I guess Rihanna can't even stop the music, get it? Please Don't Stop the Music, her song? Moving on, like I said before, OVO is cookin' up something serious. Pay attention, get with it or get left behind it seems.
