Growing up as a military brat in Hawai’i was a life-altering experience for me, so Kanye West’s new video for the song “Amazing,” (featuring Young Jeezy) reminds me of how beautiful the 808 state still is.
The star premiered “Amazing” on 106th & Park on Thursday and it features aerial and landscape shots of the Oahu island. Oh yeah, the talented Hype Williams directed it.
Rapper Nas was spotted court side at the Miami Heat and Atlanta Hawks playoff (game 2) at Philips Arena on Wednesday in Atlanta, Georgia.
Rapper Young Jeezy was also courtside enjoying the game and is pictured sitting next to Nas (photos below).
Nas is currently collaborating on a new album with reggae star Damian Marley and is also expecting his first child with his wife Kelis, later on this year. Can I add that Kelis is a lucky woman, because Nas is looking good in these photos.
T.I. and Monica pose backstage at the Philip’s Arena in Atlanta on Sunday night. The arena was the hot spot this weekend with a A-Town concert featuring: Rick Ross, Shawty Lo, Ludacris, Young Jeezy and more.
Check out the video from Young Jeezy & Nas for the hit track, ‘My President Is Black’.
Shot late last year in ATL, the video features Barack Obama supporters holding placards with various names on them. This song ranked #16 on Rolling Stone‘s list of the 100 Best Songs of 2008.
