MUSIQ IS BACK WITH “BUDDY”

Musiq and I have a love-hate relationship, where I am really impressed with his voice, and the music at the beginning of his career, but then towards the middle, he’s kind of fallen off and messing up the words to the National Anthem and then making excuses for it. But I can’t even front, this is an excellent comeback song (with a good remix as well!). I am really impressed by this song. It’s well written, the production is flawless, and his vocal delivery impresses me like it did when he first dropped that single, “Sunny” (where is voice was similiar to that of De’Angelo’s!). I’m surprised it took me this long to post this song on the Loop. It’s dope stuff, a great single and return to the game, considering I’ve thought his more recent stuff was less than stellar.

CONGRATS TO DIDDY & KIM!!

EDIT: DIDDY’S MYSPACE VIDEO ADDED


Sean “Diddy” Combs and girlfriend Kim Porter became the parents of twin girls Thursday morning, with the hip-hop impresario flying in from a movie set in Canada for the birth at a Manhattan hospital, said Combs spokesman Robert Zimmerman.

“Diddy received an early Christmas gift,” said Zimmerman. “Both Kim and the girls are doing great.”

The first arrived at 7:56 a.m., weighing in at 5 pounds, while the second girl was delivered two minutes later and weighed 5 pounds, 4 ounces. There’s no word on names for the new arrivals, Zimmerman said.

Combs flew in from the Toronto, where he is filming “Raisin in the Sun,” and made it “just in the nick of time for the delivery,” Zimmerman said.

Combs, 37, already has a son, Christian, with Porter. He’s also the father of a son, Justin, with ex-girlfriend Misa Hylton-Brim.

Congrats!!
