Today's Pick

Never has there been such a thorough discussion about sex with Nicki Minaj than in her song, "Only," the third single from Minaj’s upcoming third album, "The Pinkprint," due out on December 15. Rapping alongside Drake, Chris Brown and Lil Wayne, Minaj adds to the racy content with her newly released dark and twisted video for the extremely sexual song on Friday, a month after the song's controversial lyric video for using Nazi imagery, and a week after she performed of the Dr. Luke-produced hip-hop record on "Saturday Night Live" last weekend.
The Young Money first lady going head to head with her label-mates Drake and Wayne as they rap a verse each. The rap queen kicks off the song shutting down rumors of her sleeping with Wayne and Drake in a very explicit way. Drake reiterates that he's never had sexual relations with Minaj, but would if she hadn't already got a man. Wayne brings home the final verse, which continues the hardcore lyrical content as the Young Money boss' fantasies about sleeping with the Queens MC, who trades Nazi imagery for torture porn in new "Only" video.
Directed by Hannah Lux Davis, the porn-esque video, which is full of risqué costumes, bondage equipment and blood in a dominatrix setting, is not as controversial as the previously dropped lyric visual. It starts off with a bunch of muscular men being abducted and taken to the Trinidadian raptress, who shows off her killer curves in a sheer black body suit over a black bra and tiny panties as she and some other ladies in a dark-lit room where they torture several men. While fellow hypnotizing Young Money rap about how they have never slept with her, Brown appears in another place to sing his hook, sporting a pair of creepy colored contact lenses and golden grills.

Chris Brown sparks a new flame with Ariana Grande as the pair will fight for their medieval love, cozy up, dance and ride horses in the long-awaited romantic fantasy-themed music video for their pop-dance collaboration "Don't Be Gone Too Long." In a fairy tale setting, Brown, 25, courts Grande, 21, play medieval forbidden lovers romancing in the moonlight and display their unbreakable love connection in the video.
Brown continues to keep the surprises coming. After sharing his Trey Songz-assisted record "Songs On 12 Play" on Friday, the R&B star comes through just hours later and delivers a new music video to his dance-pop duet with Grande, "Don't Be Gone Too Long," which was announced back in March, before it was postponed due to Brown's incarceration for breaking the Rihanna case's probation. Then Grande decided to remove herself from the song and cancel the video premiere. A version without Grande will now appear on Brown's sixth album "X," which drops next Tuesday.
Shot in a darkly lit palette with dramatic Arthurian aesthetics and a Romeo and Juliet-inspired plot, the video, directed by Brown himself, taking it back to medieval times, features him and the pint-sized diva as a fairy-tale couple whose happily ever after is interrupted when the two are forced apart. Grande playing a princess who falls in love with Brown, but when discovers their forbidden romance, the royal kingdom heavies appear on horseback to separate the pair, and Brown is captured, hauled away and gets thrown into prison, he must do anything it takes to escape and get back to his love while Grande is kidnapped by an evil king and taken back to captivity on a castle balcony.
Interspersed with the narrative are shots of Brown performing acrobatic dance moves in a castle alongside Grande's tutu-clad ballerina poses and show off their amazing chemistry together in the romantic scenes. Nothing can keep them apart. Brown eventually manages to escape, breaks free, finds himself on a journey back and rescues Grande and the lovebirds reunited, but is discovered by the guards once again toward the end of the visual for a to-be-continued battle on a cliffhanger. The fantasy backdrop is very cool, and the moody video feels like an episode of "Once Upon A Time." Watch their forbidden love story unfold below.

With help from Usher and Rick Ross, Chris Brown dropped a clean and breezy new visual and has ignited a "New Flame," the fifth single from the controversial R&B singer Brown's oft-delayed upcoming sixth studio album, "X," which will be released on September 16. The setting is sleek. It's a classy, classic video full of beautiful women, lavish surroundings and a plenty of fire and shades of white, as the trio stars heat things up and dressed in all white, as are most of the models.
This synthy slow burner finds Brown attempting to convince a girl to embark on a relationship with him after meeting her in a club. The song was debuted by the singer at the 2014 BET Awards on June 29. It was his first performance after spending two and a half months in prison, as a result of getting involved in a fight outside a hotel in Washington DC. Ross brings in the rear with his luxurious raps and his closing verse has a baseball theme with references to the late New York Yankees owner, George Steinbrenner, and famous Yankee players Babe Ruth, Derek Jeter and Yogi Berra.
For the visuals, it's an all-white party, of sorts, with the two R&B stars looking crisp as they dance across scenes from the beach to Brown's weird little one man island to Usher's steps to nowhere. And a shirtless Ross joins the festivities for his verse, but sadly doesn't moonwalk, or do anything of the sort. It begins with a gratuitous shot of a Beats by Dre Pill boombox, with a bikini clad woman listening to the new Brown single with the device. But that's not all the product placement! There's also a skillfully shot frame with Zing Vodka at the start of the clip, because you have to fund music videos somehow.
It's a simplistic clip for the simple love song, as the trio hanging out together singing about a newfound love and literally sparks flames with their fiery moves. There's Brown, dances on white platforms surrounded by endless blue water and on a sandy beach at night busting synchronized moves with his crew in the sand. There's Usher, in front of a giant flaming "X," matching Brown's tone and musical efforts perfectly. And there's Ross, surrounding by women and shirtless himself on a throne, rapping the day away. It closes, of course, with some signature Brown choreography.

Chris Brown may be behind bars right now, but it's not stopping the singer from releasing his highly anticipated music video earlier Monday morning for his chart-topping no-love anthem, "Loyal," featuring YMCMB's Lil Wayne and Tyga, is the fourth single taken from Brown's upcoming album, "X," which is due out on the singer's 25th birthday on May 5. The new video shows a fun side of Brown who wearing a colored fishing hat, dancing outside a movie theater. Though he's surrounded by beautiful women, he won't let himself get too attached because, as he sings, "These hoes ain't loyal."
Brown shot the video just a few days after completing an anger management rehab program back in February. After he shot the video, the singer was ordered to go back to the facility for further treatment. But on March 14, Brown was taken into custody after getting booted from the treatment center after allegedly violating his probation in rehab. The singer will remain behind bars until April 23. Brown has had his ups and downs, but this is definitely a high point for him as the 24-year-old singer showing off his amazing dance moves and definitely proves that he's still a leader in the hip hop world.
Two versions of this promotional single were released. Both of them feature Wayne, but The East Coast version features French Montana as well, whilst Too Short jumps on the West Coast version. The song, is about unfaithful females, finds Brown addressing gold-digging and money-chasing women who attach themselves to famous names but have no intention of staying loyal to them. It's been reported that his lyrics include a dig at his ex-girlfriend, Rihanna's promiscuous behavior, as he sings about a girl not being loyal in a relationship.
He may be locked up, but Brown proves that he hasn't missed a beat in the dance-heavy video for "Loyal," which was directed by Brown himself The R&B superstar rounds up Wayne and Tyga, who each have rap verses in the tune, and take over Universal CityWalk in Hollywood with their Lambos, exotic animals, and beautiful women for the night. Against the lit-up marquees, Brown nails some impressive moves with his crew, while Wayne and Tyga crash the party. The 4-minute video also features celeb cameos by R&B singer Usher and Cali singer Ty Dolla $ign. Watch the trio light up the screen.

Hours after getting slapped with 1,000 more hours of community labor, embattled R&B/pop star Chris Brown hits the club in the dance-heavy new video for the upbeat club single, "Love More," featuring a rap and appearance by Nicki Minaj and a cameo via "Reno 911" comedian Nick Swardsen. This raunchy, club-friendly tune is the third single from his upcoming sixth studio album "X," dropping in late August via RCA Records. The clip shows the singer-dancer hitting the club with Swardson, and finding it packed with lovely ladies including Minaj.
Brown isn't the type to leave a job half done—especially when he's putting in work between the sheets. On "Love More," the R&B hitmaker informs his girl that he's not about to settle for anything less than perfection. Minaj goes in on her guest verse, ending it with a reference to blockbuster film "Django Unchained," while Brown provides a provocative and memorable hook: "Till we get it right, we gon' f**k some more." Freshm3n III's stark, minimal club boardwork backs Brown as he encourages the woman in question to put her erotic prowess to the test and make him forget the sh*t they've been arguing over all day.
Raunchy and sure to be a club favorite, "Love More" remains a pretty standard R&B/club banger, full of burping synth lines, heavy bass wallops, and a handful of soulful. It also features upbeat production with a west coast feel that almost ensures its place in regular radio and club rotation. Over a frenzied, dubstep-inspired club beat, Minaj and Brown exchange sexual innuendos, party recaps and their own brand of love. A club theme was only appropriate for this club-ready hip-hop cut, but the high velocity rapper Minaj lays down a series of explosive rhymes that leave the rest of the song wanting in passion and verve. A solid, glossy effort.
One of Brown's friends picks him up from his house and he drives with Swardson riding shotgun. "Love More" comes on the radio and they dance in the car before hit a rocking Los Angeles nightclub. Once they arrive, Brown breaks out some slick moves and shows off his fancy footwork to the rapid, hook-laden track in the self-directed visuals. As Swardson attends to the ladies, Brown and his dancers get down before he takes a bathroom break. A blonde-haired Minaj appears and takes over as the attention turns to her as she steals the stage and spit rhymes candidly about sex and love, in trademark fashion showing off her curves.

Chris Brown goes retro-chic, dances up a storm and leaps into action in the martial arts-themed clip for his surefire hit "Fine China," the lead single off his upcoming sixth studio album "X," the RCA set is slated for late August/early September. Brown wrote this heartbreaking tune with Philly-based producer Diplo. The uptempo song defining the qualities of a woman. "For the first single, I wanted to go more nostalgic, bring Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Sam Cooke to it, but also bring a new sound to what my audience and fans are listening to," he explained song's concept.
The R&B star channels his idol Michael Jackson on the melodic groove, which is a buzzy, bubbly bounce with yet another killer chorus. The sleek homage to the King of Pop, "Fine China," was holds sonic remnants of vintage MJ. A bit less R&B and more jazzy, The 23-year-old singer's new vintage sound is echoed in his style choices. "It's comparing a woman to how priceless and delicate she is," Brown told MTV News of the idea behind the catchy ode. "This song is more of a chivalry kind of record, being more of a gentleman, taking that approach of catering to the woman, having more of that love element."
Brown has been undergoing a vintage fashion makeover. From his retro all-white suit at the Grammy Awards in February to, most recently, his classic Michael Jackson-esque ensemble in his "Fine China" video, the bad boy of R&B is definitely sprucing up more than his manners. And its cinematic video, which Brown co-directed with Sylvain White, takes distinct visual cues from classic clips like the King of Pop's "Smooth Criminal" and "Beat It." It centered on a forbidden love, with hints of a modern-day "Romeo and Juliet" scenario between Brown and a gorgeous gal.
The video takes place in a Looper-like future while cruising around exotic CGI-assisted surroundings in a red Lamborghini, casting himself as an underdog and faces an age-old cultural conflict, Brown who is dating an Asian love interest despite her father's threats, takes his girl for a night out on the town filled with danger and dancing. What stands out the most, however, is the battle-like dance scenes when Brown's team of underground clubgoers pull guns on their rival Asian gang, who have come to break up his forbidden romance. The clip ends with an intense standoff, just like the one in MJ's 1987 classic "Bad."

Chris Brown dies for his country in the emotionally-charged video for his new tender love song, "Don't Judge Me," the fifth single to come from the 23-year-old Grammy winning R&B crooner's latest fifth studio album, "Fortune." The emotional track was one of the reasons why the album felt cripplingly pointless.
Brown takes a break from the hip-hop, pop lockin' and euro-pop beats, returning to his rhythm-and-blues roots to deliver a love ballad for his latest single "Don't Judge Me." He explained to MTV News: "It was important for me to go back to the basis of what people love me for, and that was my R&B." Musically, it is a midtempo lilting and breathy ballad, which contains lyrics about Brown still doesn't quite grasp the extent of what he has done in the past, and asking his love interest not to judge him by his chequered past but to move on with the future, "take me as I am."
Later on he admits, "I won't deny what they're saying. Because most of it is true." Brown sings in his signature semi-high pitch and when hearing songs like this, you can't knock his ability to make good music. Brown get into character and shed some tears in the Collin Tilley-co-directed clip, which follows a sci-fi type storyline where Brown is the 'Black Diamond' on a mission to do exactly what the title says while dealing with his girl and the pain she feels because of his past.
Brown makes his way through the California desert and sitting in front of a couch with a woman sleeping behind him before arriving at an military base as he preps for a suicide mission to save the planet. He begins to weep and destroys the ship by crashing into it, incinerating himself in the process. When asked by an overzealous reporter, who is also his girlfriend, why he's do this, Brown says, "If that means saving the people that I love and I care about, then that's what I'll do." The clip has a futuristic look and feel and is sure to make his fans cry with him as he makes the ultimate sacrifice. This is definitely art at its finest!

Brandy is well on her way back onto the music scene with her newly released sleek and futuristic clip for the catchy enough jam, "Put It Down," featuring fellow R&B singer Chris Brown, serve as the lead single off of her upcoming sixth studio album, "Two Eleven," set to be released October 16, and it is the first comeback album since 2008's "Human."
It is an up-tempo R&B song featuring tinny percussion and canned claps. Lyrically, it features Brandy complementing a prospective beau on his swag. Later, Brown adopts a Nicki Minaj-like vocal delivery and jumps on with a Hip-Hop-inspired verse. Brandy swaggers like we haven't heard her swagger before, matching the beats boldness with smooth yet forceful lines. She has always had a firework for a voice, and earned a killer single to put it to use. The single is straight out of the US R&B factory.
"It's called 'Put It Down,' but I like to call it 'Fall in Love,'" the 33-year-old told The Boombox. "But no one else likes that title. It's so new and so fresh. It's just a different vibe. It's R&B meets Hip-Hop and it's edgy and gritty, but it's about love, which is something we all want to experience and stay in love. I want to stay in love." The song is simple in its message, in the sense it is a bit of a love song, and Brandy does well, so we hope this comeback to relevancy works out for her.
Brandy takes it back to the old school, bringing modern art to the streets and rocking her signature braids from her "Sittin Up in My Room" days in this Hype Williams-directed vibrant video. The "Long Distance" songstress and Brown are seen flirting with each other while singing their respective vocal flavor on the hood of a white Ferrari, show off their moves together, get a little closer than expected and embrace their colorful surroundings switch from a dark night to a paint-splattered colorful wall.

Utilizing face mapping technology, David Guetta has dropped an expensive looking clip for his new electro-house song, "I Can Only Imagine," his dance/pop collaboration with Chris Brown and Lil' Wayne which serves as the sixth international single off his latest hugely successful LP, "Nothing but the Beat," which offers the same experience as one of Guetta's numerous remix sets, is in stores now.
After seeing a behind-the-scenes clip of the 44-year-old French producer's "I Can Only Imagine" video last week, the final product is here. The French disc jockey calls on Wayne and Brown for a lyrical assist for the club-ready track, and the two hip-hop and R&B staples show up for their respective verses. The threesome performed the club banger for the first time at the 54th Grammy Awards back to February.
Directed by Colin Tilley, the visually-engaging futuristic theme clip used six video sets and it shows Guetta in a control room of sorts with holograms and 3D screen to control a cyborg dancing in a hall. "David Guetta actually has this control room that's made out of all holograms," said Tilley. "It kinda feels like 'Minority Report.' It's just got a really crazy vibe and he's controlling everything that's happening in his world. He's controlling these dancers that are going crazy, he's controlling Chris Brown in this room with this mask on."
The clip shows a dance floor virtual reality based around Guetta and a futuristic DJ booth. While Wayne raps in front of a skateboarding backdrop, Guetta navigates Brown through a nearly zero-gravity dance routine that ends when Guetta finally removes his hands from the control pad on his turntable. There are light-up suits, face-mapping, skateboard ramps, and laser-beam eyes. Guetta described the video as having "crazy, super strong images, and futuristic images." Overall, pretty slick effort!

Kicking off the week with a big release, Chris Brown hits fans with yet another new futuristic visual for his latest dance-inspired track "Don't Wake Me Up." The song is the fourth single from the pop and R&B singer's fifth studio album, "Fortune," which will be sent to contemporary hit radio and rhythmic contemporary radio today, and officially due in stores July 3rd.
Musically, "Don't Wake Me Up" is a strobe light thumper song that features a heavy bassline and repetitive chorus, with Brown repeating the line "don't wake me up." The dance-pop song starts off slow before launching into an all-out dance party, and Brown's vocals in the song are auto-tuned. Brown continues to push towards the release of his new album "Fortune," and the accompanying music video is here and it sounds like Brown out to prove that autotune aint' dead, these uggins just scared.
The trippy video for "Don't Wake Me Up," was directed by Colin Tilley and filmed in a desert on May 14. It finds the R&B singer chasing his lady love in his dreams, and the visuals are centered on three different dream states Brown is in each one a trip into a world vastly different from the next. It boasts stunning visual effects and brings to mind some pretty fantastic dreamlike imagery that makes us think of 'The Matrix,' 'Alice in Wonderland,' and 'Neverending Story' in one clean sweep.
The 23-year-old entertainer hits the middle of the desert and follows super hot model Araya Nicks, who plays the girl of his dreams and appears in a white dress, on foot through a hedge maze and in the sky, amid fast-moving clouds and above skyscrapers. The two then engage in a deadly car chase in the dusty desert while the sun is either setting or rising. They are then shown to be plugged into what appears to be a dream machine. The visuals are stunning, and suit the aesthetic of the song perfectly!

Chris Brown has just given fans a lot to be excited about with an undeniably steamy clip for his straight-up sex jam, "Sweet Love," which was sent to urban contemporary radios in the States on April 10, and and urban mainstream radio on April 16, as the second single from his upcoming fifth studio album, "Fortune," which hits stores July 3rd.
Musically, "Sweet Love" is a slow jam R&B ballad that displays elements of electronic music. The synth drum beat totally overwhelms and clashes with the ballad. The song contains lyrics about Brown asking his lady to get naked so they can make sweet love. The track is breezy enough to keep radio programmers pleased this spring, and Brown keeps the sexiness at an all time high throughout the tune with explicit lyrics that, in theory, could easily win any girl over.
The accompanying video was directed by Brown himself and filmed at Universal Studios in Los Angeles. It begins with the singer alone in a room, when a digital version of a woman appears... and hops into his bed. As the song begins, Brown watches a woman, who appears as a hologram, lying in a bed. This scene is intercut with scenes of Brown singing in front of a flowing backdrop. "Tonight is the night that I change your life..." he's channeling 90's R&B group silk.
Then, the clip cuts to a scene where Brown roams the street at night full of beds, occupied by women, all levitating as the R&B heartthrob passes them and heads through a storm to find his girl. When he finds her, things get hot, heavy and really wet as they become passionate while rain pours around them. But before the love affair is over, the 23-year-old seduces her with a few of his signature dance routines, and later makes passionate love to his lady at home, while the rain is pouring down.

Nicki Minaj hits us off with her romantic side in her just-premiered music video on MTV for "Right By My Side," the second single from her sophomore studio album, "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded." Los Angeles-based Turkish-American record producer "Oak" Felder and his partner, Andrew "Pop" Wansel, created the soundscape. The pair also helmed Minaj's hit single, "Your Love."
Musically, "Right by My Side" is an upbeat take on a downtempo pop ballad with heavily influenced by R&B, hip hop, and features a glossy, bubbly production. Minaj primarily singing rather than rapping, while Chris Brown joins her on the song with some lines in which he croons his wish to reconcile with his girl after their relationship floundered. Both artists are serial collaborators, having contributed to many other tunes.
The 29-year-old rap princess explained about the song: "Toward the end of the album I wanted something more melodic that I could give to urban radio and that pop radio could enjoy as well. I actually had the beats for like 3 months just sitting in my computer and then I said, 'You know what? This sounds like a summer, R&B classic joint' and I just could not hear anyone else on it but Chris Brown."
Brown shows off his vocal selections, but he's not the only star singer featured in the Benny Boom-directed clip, as the Queens legend 'Champion' Nas plays the role of Minaj's love interest in her romantic story. The bright and cheery video opens with a pensive Minaj seated in a high-backed chair fit for a queen; her mind is clearly elsewhere, unaware of the camera's gaze. Only a few seconds pass before Nas struts into the scene and the two lean in to share a smooch only to find their lives subjected to a rewind sequence before their lips touch.

What with all the glowing publicity Chris Brown's been receiving these past few days, his management has decided to take advantage of all that momentum by releasing a eye-popping video for "Turn Up The Music," the lead single from his upcoming new fifth album "Fortune," which is due out March 16. "Turn Up The Music" is about as club-ready as a song can get, and the video is prime for repeat viewings, too.
Produced by the Underdogs and Fuego, the new track is a dance-pop banger, features synth-heavy production and a party beat, in which he urges on a night of drinking and loud music. It features squelchy synthesizers blasting off over canned percussion, and the R&B singer leading a handful of simple chants. Brown performed the song last Sunday at the Grammy Awards, where he has been nominated for Grammy awards for Best R&B Album for 2010's "F.A.M.E.," Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song for "Look At Me Now" (with Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes).
The 22-year-old singer makes his directorial debut in the electrifying video which was co-directed with Godfrey Tabarez. The high-energy video follows a well-dressed Brown from drinking in the street, to hailing a futuristic hover-craft cab filled with masked creatures, to hitting a warehouse rave filled with even more masked people, all watched over by some woman who appears to be the queen of the party, gazing at everyone from her own perch. From there, the clip is an eye-catching spectacle of various dance routines with Brown displaying his signature smooth moves.
The R&B star busts out his trademark choreographed routines, reminiscent of his idol Michael Jackson. Brown's dance moves are aggressive and in your face, but he is still light on his feet. The camera lights, animal costumes give the appearance of some type of huge masked rave in the future, where he parties so hard he loses his shirt before finally resorting to his infamous distraction tactic of back flips. If Brown keeps this up, then he just might go down as one of the best to do it. At the end of the video, Brown breaks the lens of the camera and the video closes there.

Chris Brown is back and this time he is not smashing windows. Instead, he is stripping in his new wintery video for his synth-anchored track, "Strip," serve as one of the campaign's lead singles along with "Biggest Fan," from his upcoming fifth studio album, "Fortune," which is expected to land in March. The track was also appears on his latest rap-only mixtape "Boy In Detention." While Brown continues his side hustle as a rapper, the recently released "Strip" proves he's not abandoning his R&B leanings anytime soon.
Produced by Tha Bizness that features Brown's partner-in-rhyme rapper Kevin 'K-Mac' McCall, "Strip" finds Brown singing compliments to a stripper before inviting her back to his place. The R&B song features booty-bouncing mix of pulsing beats and '90s-styled melodies. It's a bouncy synth-heavy track with Brown crooning sophomoric double entendres to a stripper that, if he was in high school, would lead him into a lifetime of detention.
There may be lightly falling snowflakes in the Collin Tilley-directed visuals for Brown's scintillating strip club tune, but the clip is steaming hot. The Virginia native delivers a clip set in a snow capped mountain locale. The cold outside can't beat the heat inside a spacious pad where he's surrounded by women frolicking around in bras and panties while others play a game of spin the bottle. The most surprising element of the video is the look of surprise on Brown’s face when they follow his instructions.
The video is perfectly apt for the light-hearted lyrics of the song. It opens with a shot of Brown standing on a mountain wearing a winter jacket, cap and shorts. It then switches to a house party where the 22-year-old blond superstar, along with collaborator McCall, dancing and posing with his shirt off in a room brimming over with scantily-clad women, and later next to a hot tub of vixens clad in barely-there bikinis as snow begins to fall.

Brings another one of his dance smashes to life, Pitbull has released another video featuring Chris Brown for his bouncy club anthem "International Love" the fourth official single from American rapper's sixth studio album, "Planet Pit," which premiered online on Thursday. Looking dapper in tuxedos and black shades, the chart-topping duo declare to the world their status as Mr. Worldwide.
Atop a skyscraper, Pitbull gazes out upon the rest of the world, thinking about the many countries he's traveled to and whipping his tie around at will. "I don't play football, but I touch down everywhere!" declares the pop star, also known as Mr. Worldwide. He soon commands the explosion of fireworks at will, and keeps dancing. Pitbull made sure he did a salsa and meringue number, and Brown did his usual b-boy/hip-hop dances for their collaborative effort.
The Soulshock produced high energy, fast paced dance-floor tune finds the Cuban-American rapper spitting verses in praise of girls worldwide, ranging from Brazil where the ladies "are freaky big oh booty" to Greece where, "the women are sweet." "It's all about the music being global, the music being the universal language," Pitbull added, "and it goes to show you no matter what language you may speak and or not speak, you speak music."
In the David Rousseau-directed clip, Mr. 305 touches down all over the globe, becoming Mr. International, traveling from city to city and partying it up with exotic women everywhere. Both artists perform on a stage setting with a giant screen behind them, showing off city-scapes from all over. "The music video is about the global presence of Mr. Worldwide, how he went from Mr. 305 to being a global phenomenon," said Rousseau. “Now the world is his stage."

Chris Brown has dropped the video with teen heartthrob Justin Bieber for their duet mid-tempo love cut "Next To You." The video starts out showing both artists interpret emotional determination with precision and struggle with their relationships in the video as the world falls apart behind them. It's the end of the world, and Brown and Bieber are dancing. Also, when not making mock Michael Jackson "Free Willy" era moves, saving their girlfriends from the flaming New York City streets.
The dreamy ballad pop love song, taken from Brown's fourth studio album, "F.A.M.E.," is a puppy-love declaration and it melted the pair's "angelic" voices, and trade verses assuring their ladies of their dedication. It finds the duo singing about their love for a lucky girl. Musically, "Next To You" is a R&B and pop number, with lyrics pertaining to the love between two in a relationship. Most music critics positively reviewed the song, complimenting the blending of Brown and Bieber's vocals. However a common criticism of the track was how it stood out in comparison into the more lyrically explicit music on "F.A.M.E.."
Brown returned the favor to Bieber when he added a part to the remix of "Up" on the Bieber's, "Never Say Never," the Remixes album. "Being able to collab with [Bieber] was great," Brown told MTV News. "He's a young, energetic cat, so being able to work with him, with the fanbase he has, was incredible. I know a lot of little girls are going to love this record. I wouldn't say [he's] my protégé. He's doing his thing at a young age, and I was doing mine at a young age, so being able to see him come up is dope."
This version is cleaned up and scaled back, but the epic love story, directed by Colin Tilley, the apocalyptic-themed clip features Brown and Bieber as the only two surviving residents of a chaotic town, and their history are reflected with each of them reminiscing on their girlfriends. The two pop stars face obstacles of apocalyptic proportions to keep their vow to always stand next to their ladies. Streets are crumbling below their feet, the sky is falling, but the two pop stars are determined to keep the promise they made in the song: "One day when the sky is falling, I’ll be standing right next to you."

Auto-tune king T-Pain has finally premiered the music video for Nappy Boy's R&B/pop song, "Best Love Song," off his long-delayed fourth album "RevolveR," hopefully out due soon! "This is gonna be considered the first single," he says of "Best Love Song." "I keep saying that about every song I'm dropping, but I feel like this has the power." The song features Chris Brown, who contributes some un-processed vocals. Lyrically the song finds T-Pain asking the club DJ to help him write the "Best Love Song" to win the heart of his romantic target for the night.
T-Pain's favorite love song is Gnarls Barkley's "Blind Mary." But when it comes to making love he prefers the "you know, normal stuff," T-Pain, the party-loving nappyhead who crept into peoples' hearts asking if he could 'buy you a drank' through his AutoTune crooning. So often, a love song can win a girl's heart. But what if she's got two rival crooners after her? And more importantly, what happens if it's in AutoTune? Difficult question, and one that songwriters extraordinaire T-Pain and Brown seek to answer in the new video for their new song, very appropriately titled, "Best Love Song."
"If you look at things now," he said. "I think that love making has gone to another level since those days. It's a whole lot of love making these days." As he prepares his oft-delayed album, T-Pain is looking to creep into more hearts with the Edgar Wright-directed video for "Best Love Song" with Brown. This isn't the first time both have put an affaire de coeur to music. But despite the competitive nature between the two R&B artists in the "Best Love Song" video, T-Pain admits that when it comes to love songs, Brown is the best man for the job.
The video sets up a battle of the bands-like competition, with the best song winning the contest and, ostensibly, the girl's heart. The battle and video concept are based on the bass battle in the movie "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World." The duo face off in a battle of the one-man bands on stage, attempting to impress the girl of their dreams by lending their musical talents to the drums, guitar and keyboard. However, T-Pain nor Brown end up with the girl in the end, as she walks away, clutching the hand of a dirty, bearded rock dude. We assume his rap song didn't work.

After the failed promotions for their duet "Superhuman," Keri Hilson and Chris Brown has teamed again for "One Night Stand," a very 90s-inspired R&B balled track is the second single from Hilson's sophomore album, "No Boys Allowed," which is in stores now. The two blonde R&B singers meet up at a dark mechanic work shop, for an after hours carburetor clean and dance off.
"No Boys Allowed" actually does allow boys. The track listing mentions appearances by Rick Ross, Nelly, J.Cole, Kanye West, Timbaland and on this steamy track, Chris Brown. Hilson explained the album is a deeply personal project designed to bring women to their feet. She said, "It's not about excluding men. It's more about women understanding that there comes a time in your life when you want a man. A real man. A grown up. Not a boy. And that's not a bad thing." "One Night Stand" is a slow jam R&B and soul ballad produced by Charlie Bereal. This song about casual sex was reportedly intended to be a sequel to Brown's 2007 minor hit "Take You Down."
Hilson has apparently lifted her "No Boys Allowed" policy for the Colin Tilley-directed new video, which features Hilson getting cozy with fellow R&B performer Brown, in a sultry, car mechanic fantasy as the two seduce each other in a smoky garage, where we see Brown plays a mechanic, who goes from getting dirty working on a car in a warehouse to working on Hilson's body for just one night. Dressed in all black, the two blondes get down to the slow jam, exuding just the right amount of sex appeal. Both Hilson and Brown demonstrated some great vocal control throughout the whole thing and harmonized perfectly in the chorus.
"Chris Brown is a good friend of mine. He actually was one of the writers on the song, so I decided to make it a duet. It's a perfect marriage," Hilson said. "If TLC and Jodeci did a record together, 'One Night Stand' is what I imagine it would sound like." Hilson has been impressing us with her recent videos as they all have unique stories and looks. "Pretty Girl Rock," pays tribute to iconic women in show biz, including Janet Jackson and Tina Turner. "One Night Stand" matches up to the standard Hilson has set for herself.

Riding with the success of his radio hit "Deuces," Chris Brown just unleashed a music video for the high-energy lead single "Yeah 3X," from his upcoming fourth studio "F.A.M.E." (Forgiving All My Enemies) album out early 2011. "Yeah 3X" is a speaker-rattling, synth-laden, electronic house banger, so it's only fitting that the accompanying visual would be all about powerhouse footwork. In video, the R&B star shows off his signature dance moves along with his usual catchy beats and charming smile with a group of people from a random neighborhood breaking down into a very sophisticated dance routine in the middle of the streets.
The clip which was directed by Colin Tilley featured cameos by Teyana Taylor and Kevin McCall. The visual melds together a plethora of dance styles against a turn-of-the-century backdrop of old-timey storefronts and brownstones, kicking off with Brown's acrobatic entrance. Donning a black vest, trousers and a tie pinned in place, Brown's boyish energy belies his grown-man chic as he flips onto the top of a truck. Bored kids lining the neighborhood's stoops run into the street cheering as Brown is clearly here to save the day and eradicate the youth's ennui.
With a DJ spinning the sunny track, Brown then leads the mob of brightly dressed kids, teens and older residents down the street. Enthusiastic fist-pumping breaks out as the chorus nears and Brown flies through his first dance sequence. Flanked by two dancers, the trio pull off insanely high midair twirls, each seemingly jumping several feet above the ground. Then, following a foxy extra to another part of the lot, Brown runs into a four ladies rocking tank tops and suspenders — his next crew of dancers. They whip out sharp-yet-fluid arm movements as Brown takes the time to belt out the chorus and work in a few hip thrusts.
For the final dance sequence, The 21-year-old loses the white shirt and bares his chest through his peach jacket as he commands a chorus of blazer-rocking guys and midriff-baring ladies ripping through the last bit of choreography. Scenes of people going wild at an epic block party and drenched dancers executing graceful limber moves are spliced into the video-ending dance. But instead of Brown wrapping up the video with some eye-popping choreo, Brown simply spins, stops and looks off into the distance as the party ends. It's a dance party video!

The R&B singer Chris Brown has re-emerged and officially returned to the masses with the premiere of his "I Can Transform Ya" video for his brand-new single featuring Lil Wayne and Swizz Beatz, on Tuesday early morning at 6am on MTV before making its way to YouTube.
This seems to be the basic premise behind the clip, the lead track from his forthcoming third studio installment "Graffiti", which is due to be released on December 15. The original yet still catchy song makes heavy references to the live-action films "Transformers". The song is good, not great, but the heavy guitars help it stand out. The video is a lot of fun though.
Directed by Joseph Kahn, and supported by dance group Rej3ctz. The video is obviously inspired by the "Transformers" series. It starts by Brown spray painting the name of the single and it's all the singers dancing and the transforming from there. It features Brown' literal take on the song's theme as he transforms into a sports car, a firetruck, a ninja, a girl on a motorcycle and, finally, his own entourage. The clip matches the grown-up club track, and is filled with Brown's characteristically cool modern dance sequences on a classic white background, and quick, colourful transforming graphics.
Critics for MTV News hailed Brown as being "smoother than ever on his new track". Says, "It's a blockbuster, loaded with eye-popping special effects, the titular transformations are particularly great looking, as are the scene-to-scene transitions, it is a very shiny, sexy throwback, very expensive-looking clip, and frighteningly precise pop-and-lock moves from Brown himself."
The singer is still trying to escape the image he created for himself after he physically abused his now ex-girlfriend Rihanna earlier this year in February. In an effort to show that he has changed and has grown as a person. Though the video might reside in safe territory for hip-hop and R&B, but I think it's a good image for him, quite fresh and chic, despite what happened previously. Is the video enough to spark a full-fledged comeback? The video is a super-slick clip that showcases not just his dance moves, but his newfound sense of swagger. It seems like a good way to recover from a tarnished image; even better, getting Lil Wayne and Swizz Beatz onboard. "It's a good video to come back with."
