On The Watch ” It’s All About Justin Timberlake”
Justin Timberlake aka JT is a songwriter, dancer, record producer, actor and successful businessman who has established himself as one of the most commercially successful singers to ever do it this good in the Pop, Dance and R&B genres till this day. REAL TALK! With only 2 solo LP’s dropped between the year 2002 and 2006, JT still solidified his position in the Game by dominating the charts worldwide and catering to the clubs and the radio stations along the way.
JT’s work ethic, creativity and personal drive did not go unnoticed, as a solo artist JT pick up some esteemed hardware along the way, in 2006 he was the winner of 2 MTV Europe Music Awards for “Best Male Artist” and “Best Pop Artist”. In 2007 JT was also Winner of four MTV Video Music Awards for “Male Artist Of The Year”, Quadruple Threat of The Year, .
Judging from his production from his two previous Albums, one can clearly see how fearless and ingenious he was in staying ahead of the Game. With all the HYPE and anticipation surrounding the return of one of the BEST, one can only imagine what else JT has in store for his fans when his latest LP The 20/20 Experience hits the airwaves.
Keep in mind that his latest LP is a two-part offering (10 songs now/10 songs later)—end result, 20 Vision. REAL TALK! Keep your ears and eyes open till then but in the meantime check out my DJ Blaze/Justin Timberlake set on my mixtape section and peep his evolution.

On The Watch “It’s All About New Edition”
Members Bobby Brown, Ronnie DeVoe, Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, Ralph Tresvant and Johnny Gill, together, formed one of the BADEST boy bands to ever do it this good, from the 1980s/1990s and up to this day still touring and recording as the group New Edition. Each member brought a different skill to the table. To me they were and still are the Originators of the Boy Band crusade of the past and present.
With 6 studios LP’s, a mixture of hit records and possibly another LP in the making, one can’t disregard these Kats own personal achievements as solo artists either, Ronnie, Ricky and Michael went on to form BBD and together released hit records from 1990 to 2001. Ralph Tresvant also went solo in 1990 and released 3 studio LP’s between the years of 1990 and 2006 and along with that quite a few hot singles for the clubs and radio play.
Johnny Gill who was added to the group in 1987 also did quite well for himself as a solo artist releasing six studio LP’s from 1983 to 2011 and not to be outdone had quite a few hits himself in steady rotations. Bobby Brown who became the face of R&B in the early 90’s took his opportunity as a solo artist and shaped himself quite an astonishing career ranging from 1986 to 2012. Bobby blessed us with a substantial amount of blazin hot singles still killing the clubs till this day.
REAL TALK! Personal accolades aside NE as a unit is a force to be reckon with in this GAME, it was only fitting that last year at the Soul Train Awards, New Edition received the Lifetime Achievement Award for their contribution and longevity in this here R&B music GAME. Peep my DJ Blaze/New Edition set on my mixtape section and enjoy the ride down memory lane!

On The Watch “It’s All About Jemaine Dupri and So So Def”
This music Game we live in can either break you or make you. REAL TALK! Some People come and go in this Game without ever being notice or appreciated. But once you’ve figured out the ins and outs of the business, the sky becomes your only limit. Jemaine Dupri did just that and never looked back. For those who don’t know or haven’t heard of JD, here is a quick run down. JD is a musical genius and one who’s worn many hats in the Game and broke a lot of records in the Business. He’s a Producer, Songwriter, Rapper and CEO of his own Record Label So So Def Recording.
From 1992 till this present day, JD has help guide some of the careers of quite a few artists of the likes of, Kris Kross, Xscape, TLC, The Brat, Bow Wow and also worked and produce for the likes of Usher, Jagged Edge, Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson, and Monica just to name a few…Jemaine has a keen ear for music and a crazy eye for talent REAL TALK! With that being said you peeps should look up some of his newer artist coming out of the So So Def staples with the likes of Dondria, Leah Labelle and Fresco Kane. These kats along side JD are destined to hit the charts and cement their name in the Game just like his entire previous artist on So So Def. JD’s entire career speaks for itself, the man is a hit maker who dominated the charts all year round, and I’m talking Number-one songs, Top-Ten hits, Top-Forty hits, name it he’s done it…he’s even taken the rmx Game and flip it in a way that can only be duplicated by some of todays producers…REAL TALK!
As I write this write up Jermaine Dupri has once again reached another milestone to put under his belt as another personnel achievement. His Record Company So So Def Recording that he founded in 1992 has now reached the 20 Year mark, a feet only grasped by a hand full of people REAL TALK! JD survived the ups and downs of the music business and cemented his legacy once and for all.
Congratulation JD! To commemorate his latest achievement Jermaine Dupri will be hosting a So So Def 20th Anniversary Concert, which will take place on Saturday February 23, 2013 at Fox Theatre in Atlanta…. I’m sure its going to be a night to remember…peep the show if your still in the area but until then peep my
