The Roots ft. John Legend – The Fire (music video)


One of my favorite singles and songs of the year. The vibe, the chorus, the lyrics. Just love everything about it. Rik Cordero puts an unexpected twist on the song by releasing this war-themed music video. My thoughts on the song were a little more literal, but this gives a different meaning to “The Fire.”

Oh, and that white box is supposed to represent the “key to survival.”

Nowadays it usually goes:
1) Behind the scenes pics
2) Behind the scenes video
3) Music Video Trailer
4) Music Video

But I’m happy we are seeing some visuals for “The Fire,” which is one of my favorite singles at the moment. Not what I imagined to be, but this looks like sort of an epic vid from Rik Cordero. The Roots do not appear in the final cut. How I Got Over in stores now.

Behind the Scenes Pics: The Roots’ “The Fire”

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.

Statik Selektah feat. Bun B, Wale & Colin Munroe – “So Close So Far”


Props to Statik for putting out consistently quality material since his introduction in to the spotlight. Here, he gathers up Colin Munroe, Wale and Bun B to put together a great track & music video. Loving this track right here…

Wale ft Marsha Ambrosius – Diary (Music Video)

First of all, Wale and J.Cole should have done a music video for “Beautiful Bliss.” Cruisin down the Pacific Coast Highway in a drop top Phantom or something. Second of all, I’m liking this video (and song right here). Unfortunately, I’ve had to deal with females that have the same type of pre-conceived notions and trust issues before…yes, it’s possible to have a girl, but you don’t really have her unless you have her full trust…
