NEW YORK CITY– February 15, 2010 Are you ready for another hot Right On! TV exclusive?

Continuing with its new bolstering entertainment series, Right On! magazine brings an extraordinary flavor to its successful Right On! TV web series.

How To Make It In America is a new Original Series on HBO that is set premiere this Sunday. It is about how New Yorkers have to hustle to succeed, and stars Kid Cudi as Damingo Dean. This is definitely a replacement for Entourage which has 2 more seasons left.
HBO released the Pilot episode on Youttube and I have to say it seems to be worth the watch..so tune on Sunday for the first airing at 10PM.
Wale finally releases the video for his song “Pretty Girls”, it was WACK…it looks like something an amateur could of done. To have such a huge machine behind you and release a poorly done video is not acceptable.
BUT, there’s always a but…Wale made up for it with the video release of his iTunes exclusive song “My Sweetie”. For an exclusive song this video is dope..

Pharrell gave a keynote speech at Midem with co-CEO of Cornerstone, Rob Stone. The interview praised Pharell on being Billboard’s Producer of the decade, a title that was given to Quincy Jones in the 80′s and Dr. Dre in the 90′s. Then it got into how Mr.Skateboard P makes money outside of the music industry and what it takes to maintain his status as a great producer.
ALRIGHT…so I attended “THE LAST SEED” event at the SEED GALLERY the other night in Newark, NJ and had a blast. So many upcoming artists had their work on display. Great to know that there is a venue and a market for them to present their work to the public. So the first two floors were mainly art on canvas and networking. I got so lost in the art I forgot to network but there will be other events for that.
So now let’s get to the music. Now from the jump let me say this I didn’t really like all the artists that performed but who am I to judge someone elses stuff..But the selection of artists were very diverse which is a big plus. It wasnt all rap, there were some acoustic quitar players, club music. Great mix of all different type of people in the SEED Gallery.
UNFORTUANTELY THE SEED GALLERY IS CLOSING ITS DOORS. WILL BE MISSED.
