Rap star Drake has decided to treat his fans to two new videos just in time for Easter. Yesterday, Drake dropped the video for Take Care, the solemn dance song that features vocals from Rihanna.

No Comments »Before They Blow-Pop! *Video* Rita Ora does her best Rihanna Impression with “R.I.P”
Posted by ChokLit Factory on April 5th, 2012
Roc Nation artist Rita Ora has released the video to her new single, R.I.P, that features London rapper Tinnie Tempah. The song was written by Drake with help from Toronto singer/songwriter Shi Wisdom. Drake originally recorded his version called, I’m Ready for Ya (which is the best version, in my opinion). Next, it was meant [...]

2011 has come and gone like the wind. The changing face of Music has snuck up on us as well. Dance/Electronic music has become the new popular music. This change has perhaps been ushered in by the popularity of the Jersey Shore folk and their penchant for dance music. Party-boy acts like LMFAO now have [...]

Rihanna’s Talk is Hot across the Pond and Drake continues to ride high off Take Care
Posted by ChokLit Factory on December 25th, 2011
First in our Music News ROLO, Singer/songwriter/producer The-Dream hints that soon-to-be mommy Beyonce is already working on tracks for her upcoming 5th album. Beyonce released her fourth album, 4 this past July, and it is just about to go Platinum at the year’s end. This is pretty disappointing considering her star power alone, but moreso because [...]

Posted by ChokLit Factory on December 22nd, 2011
Toronto Artist The Weeknd has dropped his third Mixtape today, titled Echoes of Silence. I neglected to post on his second Mixtape, but was a big fan of his first, House of Balloons. The Weeknd has become known for his melancholy, drug-fueled mood music, not to be confused with a new-age form of R&B. I [...]

Posted by ChokLit Factory on October 4th, 2011
Drake is ready to take over the month of October. The Young Money Artist dropped his video for Headlines over the weekend. This is one of my favourites of Drake’s to come out in the last while. I love the sped-up , synth-heavy production and Drake’s confident lyrics. Of course the melodies on this song are bananas. [...]

Posted by ChokLit Factory on June 21st, 2011
This Marvin’s Room song must be really speaking to the ladies! First Jo-jo released her popular version, now Teyana Taylor takes a crack at the Drunk-dialing anthem, recording her somber vocals with lyrics very similar to Drake’s. But I still think Teyana digs a little deeper with her version. Teyana sings: Chillin in my bedroom, Wife [...]
