Trey Songz and Janelle Monae PHOTO CREDIT: Johnny Nunez Say what you will about the BET Awards. Most insiders know that it’s all about the afterparty. Case in point the The Atlantic Records Party Presented by SWAGG, which was was held at Cecconi’s in West Hollywood. On tap were Atlantic Urban recording artists (and Couch [...]
B.O.B at SXSW 2009. Photo by Stone. I know these videos are a few days old (and it goes against our “Don’t post anything that’s been on 500 other blogs” policy), but I had to feature these videos of Bobby Ray, most notably for the track “Lovelier Than You” which he’s played a few times [...]

The multiple threat MC can do crunk, introspective hip-hop, and alt rock with ease, switching between these three genres effortlessly on stage.
