E! posted up this pic from the set of Eminem & Rihanna’s “Love the Way You Lie” music video. If you don’t already know, this is of Megan Fox and Lost‘s Dominic Monaghan. Lucky guy, swapping spit on top of a liquor store with Fox. The video is set to debut some time this week.

This is actually a single I really like, as far as an attempt at commercial for the West Coast artist. Looking forward to seeing what kind of push it gets. Lloyd definitely rounds out the track on the hook, IMO. Additional pics after the jump:

Looks like Drake will continue to push Thank Me Later on the people with the release of two upcoming video’s for “Miss Me” and “Fancy.” Here’s what the guys at Exclusive Access had to say about the “Fancy” music video shoot:

Last night Drizzy closed out his series of videos in Atlanta, Fancy Feat. Swizz Beats and TI. Drake hooked back up with Anthony Mandler again to recapture some of that Over magic and they gotta another visual banger on their hands. It was truly a family affair as the whole Young Money Fam was in the Building people brought they kids out and even TI had his on set as well. Trey Songz and several industry insiders stopped thru to bare witness.The Vibe was just right.

Says GWHH:

“Today, we have some exclusive footage on the set of Mikkey Halsted’s new video for “Linen In The Summer” featuring fellow Chicago emcee Twista and produced by Tha Bizness. The video contains Mikkey’s strong claim of Twista in his ‘top 5: dead or alive’, clips of the casino scene, and a small preview of what “Linen In The Summer” sounds like!”

It’s a tough life, being Killer Cam’ron out in South Beach. Here, Cam, Vado and FREEKEY! Gunz N Butta drops at the end of August.

The Southern boys try to flip the current ”all-black” trend and put you on that white. You buyin it?

I think of a much more uplifting theme when I hear this song, but I’ll reserve full judgment until I see Rik Cordero’s music video for my favorite song right now, “The Fire.” Apparently it’s a World War II themed video that The Roots don’t appear in. This track is off of The Roots’ How I Got Over album and features John Legend.

Here’s some footage of Rick Ross and Kanye West working on Ross’ supposed next single, “Live Fast, Die Young.” You get some words from Kanye as well as some actual music snips from the song. Off the snips, I’m not really digging the chorus, but I’ll reserve my full judgment until I hear the CDQ track.

Also, be on the lookout for a music video for this track, shot by none other than Spike Lee.

This is a cool video because West and Co. have been super secretive about what they’ve been working on in their self contained studio in Hawaii. Imagine getting the chance to get in there an be amongst so much talent? Well, apparently, DJ Carnage got in and recorded this short vid of Ye making a beat. Rap Radar also got a hold of the sample, which happens to be a sample from the every-so-popular play, Wicked.

Check out this behind the scenes footage of Bossman’s ‘All Ova U’ video shoot. The is part 1 of 2. The Re-Up will be here in 6 days!! Make sure to check out the HHU sponsored mixtape from Bossman, M.O.P. Download that right here.

This is some pretty cool behind-the-scenes footage from this year’s Hot 97 Summer Jam – one of the biggest annual events in hip hop, generally. I heard this year was cool, but there was a lack of epic flavor from the show. Pretty sure The Roots Picnic lineup > Summer Jam. Recap of that coming soon.

J.Cole takes it back to North Carolina for his first full fledged music video for “Who Dat?” While the song won’t be a commercial success, it definitely lets you know that Cole is on his way. I would expect a few more commercial singles (by Cole’s standards) before we see a body of work dropping. Additional pics after the link:

Thanks to DG, who’s always following these guys around taking pics. Looks like we have the standard DJ Khaled green screen video coming soon. Buncha pics after the link:

Looks like Posner is still pushing that mixtape as he’s, supposedly, set to drop a debut album in September. We’ll see about that. This vid was shot in the Hollywood Hills.

If you haven’t already – I’d suggest you check out my buddy Josh Sallee‘s remix to this track. Second verse is especially vicious

Josh Sallee – Cooler Than Me (Now Remix)

Looks like Banks is gonna milk this track to death. Props to him, though. I’ve heard the original song everywhere. Download the remix with Luda, Jadakiss, Yo Gotti and The Dream HERE.

Wale & The Board take you behind the scenes while they rock the stage for the legendary David Letterman. Also, Wale seems to be continuing his embrace of ATL, putting in work:
