What I'm Watching: Nitty Scott, MC "Tell Somebody"

Nitty Scott, MC brings this genuine old school feel to her music, and I just feel the need to tell somebody. Ha! Nitty's stock has constantly been rising since her appearance in one of the cyphers on this years' BET Hip-Hop Awards but she had been maintaining a buzz well before then. Yesterday she dropped the Conor Shillen of One Forest Films directed video for Tell Somebody featuring Mike Maven. I definitely dig the style in which the video was shot and the candid energy featured throughout. Fresh. Tell Somebody is one of the solid cuts off of her EP Doobies x Popsicle Sticks. Hit play and enjoy. Chea!

What I'm Watching: Common "Sweet"

"You ain't no muthafuckin' Frank Sinatra ... little bitch... "

Someone pissed Common off and the result is Sweet. Literally. This must be that gangster rapper folks were concerned about inviting to the White House. Ha! He went off on the verses and delivers up a solid video shot in Haiti. If this doesn't get you hyped for The Dreamer/The Believer, poke holes in your speakers and throw your computer out the window. Common is asking for a $1 donation to J/P Haitian Relief Organization per view. Support. Chea!

The new verse is about Michael Jackson's doctor, Heavy D's passing, Joe Paterno's team secret, and the kidnapping of Wilson Ramos.
