【新闻】Kanye工作人员帮助找回法海Nas合作歌曲 We know how soul-crushing it is when a blog post or a Very Important Email magically erases itself before we managed to hit “save,” so we can’t even imagine how musicians must feel when a song vanishes into the ether. That’s what happened to Nas, Frank Ocean and Hit-Boy last year, when the rumored Life is Good track “No Such Thing as White Jesus” was lost in the digital shuffle. But now the track has turned up! The “White Jesus” triple threat was one of the most anticipated collaborations in hip-hop last year, but it never made it to Nas’ album after producer Hit-Boy misplaced the digital file and thought it was gone forever. But, good news for people who like to enjoy the fruits of their labor (and to hip-hop fans): the producer told MTV that some of Kanye West‘s engineers stumbled upon the track and sent it back. “I got the files now,” Hit-Boy said. “I don’t know exactly what’s gonna happen with it yet, but that song is gonna be heard by the world one day.”

【访谈+图片】Miguel Is Living The Dream The first line of the album's first song sets the tone: "These lips can't wait to taste your skin." You have entered Miguel's Kaleidoscope Dream, a fantastical, steamy, colorful, gritty-but-polished, polished-but-gritty, dripping-with-sex-sweat bacchanal of Marvin Gayesmoothness. The song is "Adorn," and it hit the young Los Angeles–based Mexican/African-American singer like a flash of light, the chords coming to him on a cross-country flight, the lyrics following shortly after. He touched down, wrote the thing in a blur, and doesn't remember much of anything about the process. Because that's often how great art is made—a rush of unexplained and inexplicable inspiration, divine or otherwise, knocks the singer/writer/painter/poet flat over, a happy accident, and a song/book/picture/poem emerges from the fog. Like, say, Stephenie Meyer, who went to sleep one night dreaming of shiny vampires and hunky werewolves, and woke up to find the Twilight saga spill out of her, "Adorn" flashed and pulsed in Miguel's mind's eye from something or somewhereother. He couldn't write down the recipe, because there was no recipe. It justappeared, a dream while awake. A kaleidoscope dream. "There's got to be a better example than that," says Miguel, laughing, fresh from our photo shoot in L.A., en route to depart for Europe. "But, yeah, I guess you could make the comparison. It's the only song that's ever hit me like that. It was so different, so special. I knew instantly I wanted to start the album with it and that I had a single." "Adorn" has a strong "Sexual Healing" vibe, but you'd be deaf or dumb to dismiss it as a mere knockoff. The song is about love, of course, but it's also about longing, yearning, protecting: every aspect and promise of a relationship all rolled up in a tidy, sweet few minutes. It's the perfect amuse-bouche for the album it kicks off, priming the ears, opening them. Kaleidoscope Dream is Miguel's sophomore effort, and you know how that goes. They're usually stinkers, unable to live up to whatever wildly inventive, critically acclaimed debut that came before. But this isn't that. Because Miguel's debut, All I Want Is You, wasn't really. His name was attached, but it didn't say much about him. It showed he could sing—Gaye, Prince, and (his comparison) Van Morrison all linger in his voice. It showed he had chops, but it gave no sense of who he actually was. He was young in the music game. He did what was expected and, in some regards, what he was told. Kaleidoscope is the album All I Want was supposed to be, Miguel expressing himself, laid bare, taking chances, exposing his raw nerves to air. Thing is, there would be noKaleidoscope without All I Want. He couldn't know what he fully believed in until he got a chance to make something he fully didn't. "That was the purpose of this album, me saying, 'This is the music I love to make, but I want to make it on my own terms.' On [All I Want] I was at the brink of discovering what my terms were. I don't know that I would say it was on someone else's terms. I think I would just say I was learning myself."

【新闻】Nas希望和法海再次合作 Nas Ready To 'Reconnect' With Frank Ocean For New Album'I'm an open canvas, a clear canvas and an excited painter with a shaky hand,' Nas tells MTV News as he starts work on his 11th solo album. When Nas dropped his 2012 post-divorce masterpiece Life Is Good, he once again ignited fire to a red-hot career that has spanned almost 20 years and 10 solo LPs. God's Son is so pumped about last year's work that he's ready to get back into the studio to record its follow-up, and if he has his way, he'll time include Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter Frank Ocean this time around. "I would love to reconnect with Frank Ocean," Nas told MTV News last week when he was in New York celebrating his brand-new partnership with Hennessy's Wild Rabbit campaign. The two tried to knock out a collaboration for Life Is Good, but after the song's producer, Hit-Boy, lost the digital files, the song was gone. Ocean revealed to The New York Times that the track was titled "No Such Thing as White Jesus" last year. When we asked Nas about it a few weeks later, he wouldn't confirm. "I've talked about a song with Frank Ocean about a year and a half before anybody worked with him, and since then, it's been a heavily anticipated record, but I didn't talk about which song, actually," he said in July. Nas said there are a lot of people he's interested in working with for his next album, though he didn't specify who. Much of Life Is Good served as a sonic refresher to NYC's 1990s boom-bap sound, with songs like "The Don" and "Loco-Motive," but when describing the sound for his upcoming LP, Nas insisted it will be more current. "It's very now, it's very 2013, Nasir Jones. That's what it is," he said with a chuckle. "I feel great, I feel accomplished, I feel wiser and just really ready." The decorated rap veteran even admitted that he is a bit anxious on this next project, but in a good way. "I'm an open canvas, a clear canvas and an excited painter with a shaky hand," he described as poetically as you'd expect from an MC with Nas' depth. "Not because of bad nerves, but because of excitement."

It didn't go well. According to tweets from people who were there, Fiasco got pulled off the stage after he played an anti-Obama song for half an hour or so, and refused to move on to the next track. Foreign Policy's Josh Rogin, CNN's Matt Dornic, and others, tweeted from the event.

【新闻】Andre 3000说:Pink Matter Remix不是Outkast联合作品离Outkast上一个作品已经有很长时间，尽管Big Boi最近在Frank Ocean的Pink Matter和即将在T.I.的Sorry上remix，这和Andre 3000走到了一块，但3 Stacks还是坦诚告诉歌迷这不是Outkast的联合作品。 “It’s important for me to be clear about the origins of my contributions to ‘Pink Matter’ and ‘Sorry.’ I was approached as a solo artist by both Frank Ocean & Tip. I discussed musical direction with each artist and completed my verses. It was after that when Big Boi’s name came up. I never want to mislead our audience – I worried that some would think these were Outkast collaborations. These songs are not Outkast collaborations. I discussed this rationale with Big, Frank and T.I. and everyone agreed. That is why I was surprised to read about these remixes. I understand that anyone can put out an unofficial remix to any song but I have an obligation to be honest with fans about what this is … and what it isn’t.”

【访谈】2012属于米狗,2013更值得期待 If you're a music journalist and you've written about R&B dynamo Miguel in 2012, chances are you've put the 27-year-old and Prince in the same sentence, as I have. And that's cool, says Miguel. Just don't get used to it. "I'm offended for Prince because I'm such a huge fan of his and you can't compare anyone to Prince," says Miguel. "But if I'm associated with any ounce of greatness then that's a huge compliment - and that's what I think of when I think of Prince; I think of greatness, I think of timelessness, creativity, longevity, just unapologetic and unwavering sense of self. I can only hope to remind people of greatness." There's no doubt that 2012 was Miguel's breakout year. True, he had shown promise on his 2010 debut album All I Want Is You, but it was this year's follow-up, Kaleidoscope Dream, that earned high praise from critics and fans alike, who unanimously seemed to agree that Miguel was part of an exciting crop of artists intent on saving a dying genre. "[Frank Ocean's] Channel Orange, [Miguel's] Kaleidoscope Dream, and [The Weeknd's] Trilogy rescued the art form from the monotony of 'baby, baby please' as Ocean, Miguel and Weeknd casually re-created it in their own images," wrote Rebecca Thomas at MTV. See Also: Miguel's Kaleidoscope Dream is Magical In many ways, that monotony Thomas writes of began when the self-proclaimed Pied Piper of R&B himself, R. Kelly, committed career suicidecirca 2002. The game was just never the same – until now. As music journalist Erik Parker puts it, "Miguel's music came at a time where there was a wide open lane. He split the difference between Trey Songz' sex appeal and Frank Ocean's exotic and left-field style. He's pushing the boundaries in an artistic way that is not too much in the clouds. He's stretching R&B but it doesn't feel forced or too self-aware. " With five Grammy nominations, including Song of the Year and Best R&B Performance for "Adorn," and Best Urban Contemporary Vocal Album and a spring tour with Alicia Keys coming up, 2013 is looking even better for Miguel. But if greatness is what he's aiming for – and he's certainly moving in the right direction, as a singer, writer, and producer skirting the boundaries of traditional R&B - then Miguel has been influenced by more than just one musical great before his time, or "musical mentors," as he likes to call them. "I think that's [Prince] the easiest one because I guess I walk a certain line," says Miguel. "That and the ability to say really dirty things and get away with it," he adds with a laugh. "I'm like, ok guys, I get it, I see why you make those comparisons but don't forget Van Morrison, the Beatles, Donny Hathaway or Stevie Wonder, David Bowie or Freddy Mercury or Jimi Hendrix, or ****in' Miles Davis, don't forget the Temptations and Smokey Robinson, Funkadelic, Hall & Oates…" Born in Los Angeles to a Mexican father and African American mother, Miguel Pimentel was exposed to all sorts of music growing up - including Spanish oldies. "Every morning my [paternal] grandfather would play his records, just blasting lots of rancheras but then also boleros. I can't remember the names of the artists but I remember the writing style - I feel it's so much better [in Spanish]. It's so much more romantic and emotional."

【新闻】法海,奥巴马,麦当娜当选2012年LGBT英雄 Today, CNN called Barack Obama and Frank Ocean the LGBT heroes of 2012. We would also add Madonna to the list for standing up for the gay community in Russia, even though she was threatened with physical and evenfinancial damage. Overall, it was a year when civil rights for gays and lesbians took on many new strides. With gay marriage being legalized everywhere and even our own president changing his position on gay rights, 2012 will be a year to remember. Let's take a look at the three most important figures in LGBT rights this year. Barack Obama In 2011, many gay people were against Barack Obama. He seemed to be defending every type of minority, except gays and lesbians. However, last May, Obama finally conceded to the Land of Dorothy and proclaimed he was for gay marriage. Conservatives knocked him and said this move would cost him the election in November. Not only did Obama win the election, but he won it by an electoral landslide. Frank Ocean Traditionally, hip-hop music has been homophobic. Ten years ago, nobody thought that hip-hop's hottest act, Frank Ocean, would openly admit that he is gay. Some people condemned Ocean's decision to come out of the closet, but most people embraced his decision. To make matters better, Frank Ocean's Channel Orange is up for 6 Grammy awards. Madonna Whereas Lady Gaga pretends to be bisexual in order to exploit gay people, Madonna was the artist who opened the doors for the LGBT community in pop culture. This year, she continued her fight for gay rights when after being told not to speak up for gay rights in Russia, she used her concert in order to pass out gay rights wristbands. She also gave a beautiful speech that was sincere and meaningful . So, Examiner readers -- do you agree that these three people are heroes to our community this year? Why or why not?

Kendrick Lamar 2012年最爱的两张专辑 Kendrick Lamar’s good kid, m.A.A.d city is topping best album lists everywhere. Now, the Compton native wants to share his own personal picks for his favorite albums. In an interview with Google Play, he explained his reasons behind Frank Ocean’s Channel Orange and Nas’ Life is Good for top LPs of the year. He starts first with Nas by explaining his storytelling and longevity in the game is respectable. He then moves on to the Odd Future member’s debut album, citing that the album’s sequencing and storytelling are executed perfectly. Read his responses below. On Nas’ Life Is Good: “One of my favorite albums of 2012 will be Nas Life is Good. The reason why I chose this album was simply because Nas kept his longevity, kept his creativity, kept his storytelling at an all-time high. Given the fact that he’s been in the game so many years, still being able to come fresh and come new to where it’s among the elite artists in the game.” On Frank Ocean’s Channel Orange: “Another one of my favorite albums of 2012 would have to be Frank Ocean’s album, reason given is because you don’t hear too many male vocalists or vocalists, period, giving storytelling inside of their music. I think it’s pretty dope to bring that part of the game back. As far as singing and rhythm and blues, it’s a great album, great concepts, a body of work. That’s what it’s about in the game. I can respect that.”

GQ杂志访谈 Walking through a crowd of people with Kendrick Lamar is, well, different. He's a celebrity, and people ask for pictures. They comment on how short he is in real life, try to hand off their personal mixtapes, and intrepid groupies still offer—read: throw—the things that groupies offer. In that regard, Kendrick's just like any of-the-moment hitboy. But the first thing people say, even the groupies, is how much they loved his album, good kid, m.A.A.d city . They quote lyrics, compliment his flow, and, of course, finish every sentence with Kendrick's trademark, "ya, bish." The Compton-raised introvert is a celebrity for the right reasons, and we love it.

While you were sleeping, Frank Ocean and this guy re-introduced artistic ambition to mainstream R&B. Good for them.

The track borrows its title from Janet's 1993 film and lifts a vocal sampling from her hit record "Any Time, Any Place" from the same year. For the song's video, K-Dot figures that once he and Drizzy work out their schedules, getting the OVO MC on set will be no problem, but if Kendrick has his way he'll also have a cameo for Ms. Jackson as well. "That'll be a blessing," he told MTV News on Friday just moments before he took the stage to headline at Power 106's annual Cali Christmas concert. Lamar even went as far to make a personal pitch to the icon, hoping to eliminate the difficult process that often comes with working with a star of Jackson's stature. "Janet, c'mon, Janet. No paperwork with the managers, contact the managers. This is artist to artist," he pleaded. "This is a young boy that looked up to you for years. Please, yeah, video, Janet Jackson 'Poetic Justice.' It'll only be right." That's not the only visual element Kendrick has planned. Part of good kid's appeal are the cinematic skits that piece the album's music together, so to play off of the album's strengths the TDE crew are working on a film that will complement the LP as well. "We actually started the visuals for this whole project," he said. "I called it a short film before I even started the actual foundation of the music."

【新闻】法海和米狗让R&B重回大众视线 The-Dream had just gotten through stamping out the last embers of a Twitter-fueled "beef" with Toronto troubadour the Weeknd when he offered up a bit of advice for any scrappy promoters watching our 4 p.m. live stream . "They actually should be having an R&B [concert] right now," he said, his drawl dripping with sarcasm. "They should be trying to think of how they can get 10 people on the stage at the same time." And who could blame him for thinking R&B desperately needed a good look? It still was only June, after all: The most revelatory album creditsever written were still sitting on Frank Ocean's MacBook, Abel Tesfaye (b.k.a. the Weeknd) had yet to cap an NYC run with a triumphant performance in the BX, and R&B titan The-Dream was guesting on a show called "RapFix Live." In other words, rhythm and blues was still just that thing Drake did when he was in his feelings, and the genre known to some detractors as Ribs & Barbecue was still on the ropes. On the ropes ... but not down for the count it turned out, thanks largely to a trio of prize-fighters who jumped in the ring with a few game-changing combinations. Channel Orange, Kaleidoscope Dream and Trilogy rescued the art form from the monotony of "baby, baby please," as Ocean, Migueland Weeknd casually re-created it in their own images. Proving you could sing about dreams and drugs, make songs for women and men, and as long as it rang true, they would come. For their mighty efforts, we've crowned R&B the Comeback Genre of the Year. Though Ocean, Miguel and Weeknd see through different musical lenses, they're united by a few key characteristics: all in their 20s, the three men are acclaimed singer/songwriters who write for themselves and others, from Beyoncé to Brandy. They boast airtight rap co-signs as with Ocean's Odd Future origins, Weeknd's close collaborations with hometown hero Drake and Miguel's go-to status for everyone from Wale to J. Cole to Joey Crack . Oh, and it's no accident that two of their standout projects were lifted mostly from earlier mixtapes — in the Tumblr era, crooners spit bars and drop tapes. More telling, each artist has strayed from the lyrical playbook that alternately fueled and then felled the genre. So while the Pied Piper of R&B was ostensibly the first to sing about being "Trapped in the Closet" , New Orleans-bred Ocean took the idea to new real***iberating his male leads from behind closed doors and changing the rules about what we thought was taboo, in 2012, with the Grammy-nominated Channel Orange. By July, he was onstage, his head wrapped in that ever-present bandana, nodding and looking pleasantly surprised as co-ed crowds sang along to his yearning "you run my mind, boy"s. It took Miguel's second project for him to learn what Frank had already begun to discover on his self-propelled 2011 project, Nostalgia, Ultra,namely that it's always best to do like that old Fleetwood Mac song says, and go your own way. The Los Angeles native made good on that lesson with sonically eclectic tracks like the inescapable, Marvin Gaye-chasing "Adorn" and "The Thrill." The comparably reclusive Weeknd may not have been quick with a sound bite but his raw, emotional collection dared you not to connect. From "Wicked Games" to "Rolling Stone," the enigmatic singer wrote like an MC but could sing like D'Angelo. Let's hear it for the boys.

【旧闻】Miguel和AK确认2013年巡演 Miguel is going to be even busier than he is now. Not only is he on tour with Trey Songz through the end of the year, the "Adorn" singer has just signed on to tour with Alicia Keys. Alicia and Miguel broke the news in a chat with fans Tuesday night, pumping up what is sure to be a major tour. "Me and Miguel are going on tour together, it's happening in March," Keys announced. Dates for the trek have not yet been revealed, but expect Spring - Summer concerts in North America and beyond. News of the tour is also big because both have collaborated in recent months, with Miguel joining Alicia Keys on her forthcoming album, "Girl On Fire." She also appears on "Where's The Fun In Forever," which is on Miguel's album " Kaleidoscope Dream." Hopefully they'll perform those collaborations on stage. An official tour name has not yet been revealed, but it will be in support of "Girl On Fire" and "Kaleidoscope Dream."
