Datwon: Not sure about the timing of this particular song, but just got the link off Twitter and it lead me to Youtube. Feels more jam session like than anything. Still funky in its sound and space. Let’s hope more D’Angelo leaks spring in the next few weeks. What ya think?

Datwon: Now that Lloyd is outta the slammer, he’s back on the streets probably rollin’ with his hammer. You have to love how the G-Unit dudes never stop hustlin’. They are on the same pace of production they were since they started. This is about the time that we would expect something from one of the core three (Bank, Yayo, 50). Hard beats and easy hooks are the Unit’s formula for you to sing-a-long. Let us know the deal.

Ne-Yo "Take It To The Floor"

Datwon: Wow. Ne-Yo jumps on a flipped version of Jay-Z’s “Big Pimpin’” track. The drums are sicko and Ne-Yo isn’t singing about love lost, being in love or lovin’ love. A hot dance song for the winter slump. Try it out and let us know what ya think.

Juelz Santana Making His Return On Valentine’s Day

Skull Gang leader Juelz Santana has updated fans on the delayed release of his Reagan Era mixtape. According to Santana, the mixtape will be released on Valentine’s Day next month. “I know the label got a job, but sometimes the artists think the label’s gotta do everything,”

Santana told DJ Kay Slay. “Like sometimes, the label thinks the artists gotta do everything so you know like I say, I come from that groundwork, doing the mixtapes, getting our exposure and the Internet wasn’t even half as big as it is today to where I can do the free promotion, videos. So now it’s even funnier for me to lay the groundwork because you’ll be in the studio, freestyles, shoot videos, put em out and the whole world sees them the next day so I’m in six gears, I tell n*ggas. I’m only in second — I’m just gearing up to get people used to seeing Juelz Santana just in case they forgot…I just switched over to second, the release of the [Lil] Wayne song and my mixtape will be out the 14th of February, Valentine’s Day. I’m giving y’all that because I love y’all so much. All free. It’s all about getting them to come back used to me, I got a plan.”

Hayden Panettiere New Man Is A Knockout (PHOTO)

We know Hayden Panettiere, 20, loves to date older guys, so we’re not surprised to see she showed up to the “Best of Musical Gala” in Germany on Jan. 30 alongside 33-year-old boxing champ Wladimir Klitschko. But Hayden, don’t you think you two look a little silly together? There’s a pretty significant age difference between you two, and the fact that he’s so tall just makes you two look even more awkward as a couple. We know Stephen Colletti, 23, didn’t treat you right — but at least you were born in the same decade!
