Atlanta-based artist Dose is set to release his debut mixtape, The OverDose, to follow-up on the success of his bubbling single, “Where They Do That At (remix, feat. Rick Ross & Fabolous).” The OverDose will focus on Dose’s ability to excel in not only making catchy hooks, but displaying a lyrical versatility not seen in the South since T.I.’s prime.

"Civilized Talk" finds us at a funeral service. A joyous and upbeat one at that. After weeks of push backs, 11th hour recordings and a few back and forth squabbles with DJ Drama on Twitter, their highly anticipated mixtape, There Is No Competition 2.


Malice and Pusha T, collectively known as The Clipse, are by far one of the game's premiere duos. Hailing from the 757 area of Virginia, the brothers have amassed a reputation which has seen them successfully merge drugs and rap, almost effortlessly. Read More


We Are Young Money, had been anticipated since the lead single, "Every Girl", leaked in January. To the group's credit, they've managed to maintain momentum throughout the year headlined by the album's release on December 23. Read More

Clive Davis Pre-Grammy Party

Karen Civil 

This weekend I had the opportunity to take a trip every music lover dreams of, Los Angeles for Grammy weekend. For all the complaints people may have about the “biggest night in music,” being around the talent and legacy of those who make the event is a phenomenal feeling. Last night I had the chance to attend arguably the most prestigious party in music, the annual Clive Davis Pre-Grammy party. All of the urban legends about the party are, in fact, true. It was a literal who’s who of industry heavyweights all mingling to a great atmosphere and the best music.

Russell Simmons, Jay-Z, Usher, Taylor Swift, Keri Hilson, Katy Perry, Maxwell, Smokey Robinson and a host of others all piled inside the Beverly Hilton. It truly was a surreal event. Not only because of the talent in the room, but because these were people who took their talent, harnessed it into something amazing and are now having it displayed to the entire world. From the moment and artist decides they want to make music, this is where they ultimately dream of finding themselves. My opportunity to meet both Clive Davis and Mary J. Blige will serve as professional and personal hightlights.

Everyone in attendance were also graced with a performance from The Black Eyed Peas and Canadian sensation Ke$ha. All in all, words do not the time and experience I had at the party. Hopefully, the first of many.

Thank you to designer Jovani for providing me with a great dress for the night. Log onto www.jovani.com for some fabolous dresses!
