Video: Jail Cell Beating of 15 Year Old Female

As if there isn't a big enough problem with police brutality in this world. This time it was all caught on tape. A 15 year old female was brought in for holding and well let's just say Chris Brown ain't got nothing on this IDIOT. The officer was charged with assault.

NEW! Video: Jamie Foxx - Blame It

Since I first heard this song in the club last week, it's been stuck in my head ever since.

If Jamie himself didn't get one f*cking endorsement from any one of those alcohol companies for this song, this video is sure fire that someone in Hollywood likes them a Jamie. Check the new video for his single "Blame It".

UPDATE: Rhi's Post CB Face

Photo via TMZ.com

There are really no words to describe the way I am feeling right about now. This is quite the statement and let it be known from now that this is completely unacceptable. I don't care what she may have done or not done, there is no valid reason for this foolery.

Just got my J Dilla shirt...





And it's beautiful. Came in a really neat box. And unlike unruly Ebay pirates the shipping was right on the money... Literally. Thanks IRIS for a purchase well made.

NEW! Video: Alias Donmillion - Back On The Block

Directed by TOFLO.com's favorite director Stirling, loving the visuals. The artist never heard of him until now. The video definitely is on some dope vibe, the track I'll reserve to comment but Shane you do some beautiful work! Keep 'em coming.

NEW! Video: K-OS - 4 3 2 1

Hot out of the Universal camp, K-OS' new video 4 3 2 1. Really digging the creative in this one... the track, umm waiting for Fat Lip from the Pharcyde to surprise me and spit a verse. LOL, all jokes aside nice vibe and really looking forward to K-OS' next album release.

NY Post Where the flying %&^* is your mind at?

I mean, we are all for controversy these days... After all isn't that what makes our world go 'round?

This was the cartoon image posted in today's New York post in response to the newly signed Stimulus Bill, that claims the Bill was so badly written it might as well have been written by monkeys. Racist much? O-B-V-I-O-U-S-L-Y!

This is just crossing all types of lines and you guys [NY POST] deserve to be shitted on by everyone including the President himself. I hope you guys realize that this type of imagery is completely unacceptable, in this day in age. What the hell do you guys do over there? Get it together please for the sake of all humanity!

Though we wouldn't consider this a mixtape by any means, download the quasi-album "So Far Gone" now. Oh did we mention it was FREE! Ah yeah we can dig that! Enjoy!

UPDATE! Keshia Chante and Chianna are a No-Go!

Despite all the rumors and wild media-spread attention, we have received official word from Ms. Keshia Chante's management team that Chante was no way involved in this outrageous melee. See official email received by TOFLO.com staff yesterday [at] 2:45 PM.
Dear toflodotcom,

Your site ran a story claiming that Keshia was involved with the recent Chris Brown/Rihanna incident. Keshia was in no way involved and we ask that you please run a correction or retraction. Below is the official statement from Miss Chante’s manager, Mona Scott-Young / Monami Entertainment:

“It has been reported that recording artist/actress Keshia Chante was involved with the alleged domestic dispute involving Chris Brown and Rihanna on Sunday morning 2/8 in Los Angeles. Management has definitively clarified that Keshia Chante was not involved in any way nor was she with Chris Brown or Rihanna at any point during the alleged incident.”

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
My thoughts, well now that the spotlight has moved off of Keshia and onto Leona Lewis... you know what, let me stop right there. I don't need anymore of these emails coming our way. And a lil' tid but for ya, shit if you didn't know who Keshia Chante was before... you sure as hell should know now, HAH. Next for Chante, the Aaliyah bio-pic *we hope*.

UPDATES with Videos! Chris, Rhi Rhi and KESHIA CHANTE? OMG

So out in the Twitter world, this Chris Brown and Rhianna story has been running rampant with all sorts of rumors. From Rhi giving CB an STD, to CB beating Rhi with a deadly weapon (which allegedly was his fist *wink, wink), to now a third wheel seating in the backseat of the rented Lambo who witnessed the whole fiasco take place. Who is this 3rd wheel you ask? Apparently it just so happens to be Canadian R&B singer Keshia Chante.

Again, all hear-say but shoot it's not like they picked her name out of a hat. Her name must be coming up for one reason or another. So with that said, I am just gonna add a few things that could possibly signal that there was a lovers pursuit between the two young pups starting from way back when.


Keshia Chante sending a special message to CB.


Keshia and CB getting their flirt on.


And to seal the deal, Keshia making her cameo in CB's video "Shortie Like Mine".

That's my $0.02. Until the real story comes to light, I am gonna leave this alone RIGHT NOW.

NEW! Video: Pimpin' Curly 50 Cent Reply to Rick Ross

Because I just couldn't stop laughing at this shit, this might very well be the best acting I've seen 50 do EVER. I am just saying though.

"Lions and Tigers and Bears" (video)

This track is verging on an 'oldie but a goodie' for me - only b/c I've been killing this song on repeat before it was even released.

I'm glad she (the label) finally came to their senses and made a video for this track.

In any case, here is:
Jazmine Sullivan - Lions, Tigers & Bears

Chris Brown & Rihanna (this is just sad...)

This post Definitely falls in the "WTF?" category. Like most people, this was a total shock.

Really? Chris Brown? He looks so soft! How could he? I STILL Don't believe it. I'm sure we will find out the full details surrounding this incident in days to come. Brace yourselves people...

UPDATE [at] 11:59am! Video: Chris Brown gets booked!



Excerpt from; "E! News Online"

"...Brown, 19, turned himself in at the Wilshire station around 7 p.m., hours after police announced he was the subject of an investigation for felony domestic battery. Sources tell E! News that the alleged victim was Rihanna, 20, and that she had visible bruises on her face. Both in turn balked on scheduled Grammy performances..."

"M-I-A is my HEROess!"

Ok. I know some people maybe like, "What the eff was she thinking?" but, really though... Do You Know Who MIA is? She is Fierce, Young, Fearless!

"M-I-A is my HEROess!" for the sole reason, she is a leader in her demographic. She seized an opportunity that she knew may quite be Once-in-A-Life time... Even if that meant she would have to perform on the birthdate (due date) of her first child. (click here for more).

She is a Rock-Godess! An artist in the truest form!

"Ode to Maya"

Being a graph artist by trade, she has also dabbled in documentary making. In music, she began by experimenting in production, creating and distributing her own mix-tape and singles. Maya was born in the U.K., her parents were devote and active separatists of the tamil rebellion in her native Sri Lanka.

Her mission is clear. She is here to stay, and will keep bringing us hits for many more years to come... She's just getting started!

Yours truly, The Intern.

HERE IS THE PERFORMANCE:

NEW! Music: Robin Thicke - Dreamworld

Robin Thicke's new single release "Dreamworld" seems like he's bringing it back to the all soulful Robin we know when he came out with "The Evolution of Robin Thicke". I really like it! The third studio-release album didn't resonate well with me - but hey here's one track that stuck.

Hopefully this is a sign of good things to come in '09. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
