Chief Keef Feat. Dro – I Got Cash

SNEAK PEEK: Marsha Ambrosius (@MarshaAmbrosius) – Cold War (Video)
‘Cold War’ looks to be dope, as it appeared to be featuring the cast of the greatest show ever created The Wire. You can also get the single on iTunes while you wait for the official visual to drop (soon, we hope).
Ryan Leslie – Lovers & Mountains (Irving Plaza Promo)
Ryan Leslie is pushing his Valentine’s Day show, and he made a video that accompanies the event. Check out the lyrics below.
Lovers & Mountains (R. Leslie)
INTRO
I’ma show you how I get there
I’ma show you how I work that out
No doubt, yeah
You’re attracted to the danger
I embrace you like a stranger would
And it’s so good
VERSE 1
My chain swinging
I think it’s time you find a new man
If I can’t do it for you, baby – then who can?
You got couple ex-boyfriends, all they did was talk a lot
I got a couple fast cars in the parking lot
And if you like – I’ll take you out for a spin
Ain’t no “I” in team but guarantee that it’s an “I” in win
I’m winning like every day, stuntin’ in every way
They ain’t talkin’ that money send them on they merry way
*LES*
You know the fresh – the Jays, the nice jeans,
The gold rollie, a black tank, couple nice rings
But you could strip me of every piece of jewelry
and I’m still a gem
Black bonded leather – the latest from Phillip Lim
Style so elevated
In a class of my own and still celebrated
You need a change of scenery – a new approach
Let me help you forget that you ever flew in coach
HOOK
Lovers & mountains fall (they fall)
Lovers & mountains fall
Through time (we don’t own the time)
Through time (said it’s not yours or mine – but we still fall)
Lovers & mountains fall (we fall for each other)
Lovers & mountains fall
Through time (through time)
Baby through time

T-Boz – Champion
T-Boz (seemingly) comes out of nowhere with this inspirational track, which will help raise funds and awareness for sickle cell and leukemia foundations (with your purchase). Check it out below
