CNN went behind the scenes of Solange's upcoming video "I Decided". It looks like a "Dream Girls" type of video, I'm sure it'll turn out great. Perhaps a little bit "beyonce-like".

Estelle on David Letterman!
Estelle performed “American Boy” on “The Late Show with David Letterman” on Thursday. Her sophomore album "Shine" will be released in the U.S. on April 29th. Her performance was very cool, funky, I have to give two thumbs up to Estelle! Actually, the music of "American Boy" reminds me of the type of music Jamiroquai would play, which I absolutely love! Do you agree with me?
Mariah Carey - Empire State Building Lighting Ceremony
Mariah attended the lighting ceremony at the Empire State Building in New York City where the tower will be lit in pink, lavender and white this weekend in honor of her new album E=MC².
Here's Mariah's speech:
"This is the epitomy of festive. I'm so excited to be here. I never ever thought when I was a little girl growing up here in New York, which I think is the best place in the world, that I would ever, ever, ever be able to achieve something like this and I just... I'm very, very excited. I feel very blessed and very grateful to God so here I am. And I guess I'm about to... just first of all thank you everybody and second of all, light it on up! Are we ready to do that?"
New Rihanna Video - "Take A Bow"
Rihanna has released the music video for her new single “Take A Bow.” “Take A Bow” will serve as the lead single from the re-release of Rihanna's "Good Girl Gone Bad" album, in stores next month. I'm not a big fan of re-releases, but in Rihanna's case it might work since the original album was such a hit. It's good to see that Rihanna has toned it down in this new video. She should stick to being a little more natural.
What do you think of Rihanna's new video?
New Mariah Carey Video - "Bye Bye" Sneak Preview
Here is a sneak preview to Mariah's upcoming video "Bye Bye", it looks like the video will cover her and fame, how she rose to it, something like a documentary. I wish that it would have been more story like and not about fame, I just had a different vision of the song when I heard it. Check it our and see for yourselves!

Prince on The Tonight Show!
Prince was the musical guest on Jay Leno's Tonight Show last night! He performed a new song called "Turn Me Loose" (view lyrics below). Overall, I loved the song and performance, it was funky, the arrangement was great, and I felt so energized after hearing it! It's great to hear such a sexy new song from Prince!
Accompanying the band was Ledisi and members of Grupo Fantasma along with the return of Renato Neto. Prince did a few station i.d.’s with Jay and Jay called him the Pop Idol, which Prince rather liked.
After the station i.d.’s, “The P.I.” came out and did two more songs for the lucky fans and guests who were able to attend. He did “Guitar” and “1999″ as Leno crew came from behind the scenes to watch Prince own it. We were told by a Tonight Show insider that it’s been since the Johnny Carson days of the Tonight Show since there was that much excitement for a musical performer.
Prince ended the show saying “See You At Coachella”.

Speaking of which, check out the poster, it looks great! If anyone of you are at Coachella today and can send me pictures, videos, anything of Prince's performance it will be greatly appreciated!!!
Turn Me Loose:
You don't really know me
You just think you do
It's against the law in 13 states
What I wanna do to you
Oh baby you got ta turn me loose (uh)
If you really love me
Ya got ta give me what I need
Ya get your stuff and ????
??? I just make ya bleed
Turn me loose
Turn me loose
The board behind your head's
About to split in two
Whatever's holding up this bed will be here when I'm through
Oh baby
Ya got ta turn me loose
If you like these blankets,
You better throw them on the floor
The other girl's a friend of mine, said
When it rains it pours
Oh baby turn me loose
turn me loose now
Check me
Turn me loose
You don't understand
I don't do this nightly
But if I did it once
you want me two
more than lightly
Oh baby ya got ta turn me loose
I'm much too hard to handle
We can never be more than friends
Speaking of which ya need to lie in that bed
or never come back again
Oh baby
Turn me loose
Turn me loose
Turn me loose"
You don't really know me
