SANTOGOLD IS MTV’S ARTIST OF THE WEEK

I don’t watch MTV like that, but I do dig the little artist spotlights they give to a new artist every week during commercial breaks and in between shows (kind of backwards, eh?).

Anyway, this week was dedicated to Santi ‘Santogold’ White. I’ve been hyping her for awhile now because their is finally a chick in the limelight that I can sort of relate to. With that said, peep some of these videos shot exclusively for the MTV spot. See all of them here..

Santi (on tour with Coldplay soon) will be playing in NYC for the Central Park SummerStage concert on July 20th. Click here for more info.

♫ HOT OR NOT: T-PAIN & LIL’ WAYNE ♫

T-Pain and Lil’ Wayne are set to team up to do an album together a la R. Kelly and Jay-Z on Best of Both Worlds. Even though the idea sort of makes me cringe, I don’t see why not. These two have definitely been at the top of their game for the past year, with Lil’ Wayne selling over a million records his first week out, and T-Pain being featured on everyone and their grandmother’s song.

Well, here’s “Can’t Believe It,” a track from Thr33 Ringz, T-Pain’s forthcoming circus-themed album, due out in September, with its lead single, “Silver & Gold.”

SO, HOW DO YOU LIKE “CAN’T BELIEVE IT?”

NATIONAL HIV TESTING DAY

Most people who are HIV+ don’t even know it and young people (ages 15-24) account for nearly half of new infections.

June 27 is National HIV Testing Day. It’s an opportunity for people nationwide to learn their HIV status, and to gain knowledge to take control of their health and their lives.

On June 27, state and local health departments, HIV testing sites and AIDS service providers across the country will participate in events for National HIV Testing Day, which include health fairs, special events and extended testing hours.

Text your zip code to 566948 or visit YouthAIDS to find a test center near you.
