Rihanna Teams With Yeezy for "Paranoid," Kanye's "Amazing" New Video, Plus Download DJ Jaycee's 90's Mix Featuring Bobby Brown, Keith Sweat, Tony!Toni!Tone! and More

After teaming up on his "Glow In The Dark" tour, Kanye pulled Rihanna in to star in his upcoming video for "Paranoid" off his 808's and Heartbreaks album.
Kanye discussed Rihanna's role at the recent Vanity Fair party for the Tribeca Film Festival.
Yep, she's my Paranoid girl in the video," Kanye smiled."She's an amazing talent though. Collaborating with her is always a pleasure!"
Sounds like the perfect role for her -- checking folks texts messages and the whole nine... The joke is probably in bad taste but I had to. Sorry!
Yeezy also popped up on BET's "106 & Park" this week with GLC to show off his new "Big Screen" video for the True to the Game project.
Check that video out below:
True to the Game is a blazing collection of 14 NEW tracks from today's hottest artists who want to recognize, thank and give back to their brothers and sisters who played in the Negro Baseball Leagues and helped paved the way for today's African American athletes, musicians and actors to be able to live their dreams in mainstream America!

I've also got Kanye's "Amazing" video ft. Young Jeezy, along with his "106 & Park" interview where he tries to turn down his ego.
Hot video -- and congrats Kanye on coming off much cooler.
I know I'm heavy on the hip-hop this morning -- although I think Kanye is a pretty soulful guy -- but I promise a whole lot of soul this afternoon. I went to BMI's Urban Unsigned Showcase last night and got a lot of great footage which I promise to deliver to you very soon. In addition to the unsigned bunch, Novel, Trey Songz and Nas also performed incredible sets and your girl was there to get it all.
Definitely have to big ups BMI for working through the rain and lots of technical issues to still come through with a great evening.
Now onto the mix from this week. Since we been so nostalgic this week with the old school joints, I thought I'd post the 90's mix DJ Jaycee played on V103 this Tuesday. Here's the playlist:
Keith Sweat "I Want Her"
Christopher Williams "I'm Dreamin"
Today "Him Or Me"
Entouch "II Hype"
Hi-Five "The Kissing Game"
Bobby Brown "My Prerogative"
Babyface "It's No Crime"
Boyz II Men "Motownphilly"
Tony Toni Tone "Feels Good"
