Shaun Boothe "Poor Boy"

Here's a brand new video from Shaun Boothe, the dude who brought you those exceptional unauthorized biographies of Jimi Hendrix, MLK, Obama, Ali, and more. Shaun just dropped his vid for "Poor Boy," off his upcoming album, Hip-Hop in 3D. I'm surprised there haven't been more Queen covers. I can only think of this one and Ice Ice Baby. Video directed by Chris G.

Timbaland – Morning After Dark f. SoShy

First single of Timbo's next album Shock Value 2. It's a pretty classic Timbaland hit, solid beats, and will likely be a club hit. Not familiar with SoShy, but I'm starting to like her.

k-os "I Wish I Knew Natalie Portman" featuring Saukrates

Tomorrow is the U.S. release date for k-os's new album, Yes!. Here's his latest video, "I Wish I Knew Natalie Portman," featuring Saukrates. The two Northeners team up to make this dope Western style vid.
