Singer from across the pond, Marsha Ambrosius gets ice cold on the set of her new video “Ice Cold”, a track that is featured on the sultry R&B artists awaited LP “Lovers & Friends” expected this year. The very talented musician adds in amazing actors from HBO’s series “The Wire”; Michael K. Williams and Felisha “Snoop” to give the video a serious “Cold War” promiscuous crime scene feel. Very bossed up might we add Marsha, behind that piano and what not. Stay tuned here for the full video to drop tomorrow and check out the behind the scenes footage on set after the jump!

The Singer from across the pond, Marsha Ambrosius, who you are familiar with from tracks like “Far Away” and “Late Nights Early Mornings” is back with some new heat for her long awaiting fans. In preparation for her new album “Lovers &  Friends” Marsha hits the web to drop a mixtape.. yes an R&B female singer’s mixtape. The 5 track tape titled “Hors D’Oeuvres” features a mix of  sexy and sultry tunes produced by the likes of Boi 1 Da and Vidal of Dre & Vidal. Stream and download the tape after the jump.. You wont be disappointed.

MTV News takes us behind the scenes with Saigon as he discusses working with Marsha Ambrosius, and his sophomore album, released on Election Day. Check out the snippet after the jump.

3. Lupe Fiasco – Lasers - 47,000 - The album that almost never happened appears to be doing quite well in the sales department. Too bad the reviews haven’t matched the numbers however. That being said, I wouldn’t mind seeing them actually push “Words I Never Said” with Skylar Grey.

4. Travis Barker – Give The Drummer Some – 28,000 - Regardless of what this album eventually goes on to sale (it feels like it could have been promoted better; that’s not Barker’s fault though), Travis will still be one of the cooler musicians on the planet. That record he has with the Clipse and Kobe is mean though.

10. Marsha Ambrosius – Late Nights & Early Mornings – 28,000 - This brings the lump sum to approximately 165,000. I’d love to see Marsha top out at 300,000 (which are great sales these days). LNEM is definitely a must have for those one-on-one evenings.

14. Nicki Minaj – Pink Friday – 25,000 – She just keeps selling. 1.2M and climbing. 

Wayno comes through yet again another Young Chris exclusive. This time, Chris teams up with the beautiful Marsha Ambrosius for the Chad Wes produced “Hey Young Girl” – which is also a tribute to his daughter. Now that’s the best thing I’ve heard all day.

I can’t stake claim to be Teena Marie’s biggest fan, but I do know she was one of the more vocally gifted singers of her generation. For those who truly appreciated her music – not the one’s running around saying “R.I.P. Tina Marie” – like Marsha Ambrosius, the passing is more difficult to cope with, especially since it happened so suddenly.

On Monday night in North London, Marsha decided to pay tribute to the late singer by giving her own rendition of Teena’s “Yes Indeed” while performing at Dingwalls. While the originator can always stake claim to the track’s greatness, Marsha more than did her thing on this. Her voice is angelic and according to Ambrosius, Marie co-signed her rendition of the record.
