Beyonce jumps from Sasha Fierce to Betty Page to home-girl and back again for no real reason. Sometimes I think she just wants us to know how good she looks in different outfits, kind of like a juvenile dress-up game that works sometimes, but sometimes (like here) feels chaotic and distracting.

In Bad Romance, Lady Gaga’s latest video, Gaga’s constantly switching it up and it works, there’s a sophisticated narrative backing it up that makes you beg for more visuals.  (The suspended diamonds shot is religious)

And really, why is Gaga even in this video, I wonder?  I know she’s hitting it hard so does that mean the dream-crew (Jay-Z, Beyonce, etc…) want proximity. Just throw her in, have name association and hope for the best, without tapping into her genius?

Soul Power is being released in theaters today; a documentary from lost footage of Rumble In The Jungle – the 1974 fight between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman.

Besides the fight the most celebrated American R&B acts came together with the most famous musical groups in Africa for a three-night long concert in Kinshasa, Zaire.

Anyway, Jazmine Sullivan sound is hot, and though I’d normally find a video like this a bit irritating, it’s done in a way that’s innovative, fast, meaningful and exciting.

All base.

YouTube has a way better copy, but the embed is lamely disabled.
