Last night, “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” hitmaker Cyndi Lauper, Kelly Rowland and Estelle took the stage at amfAR’s Inspiration Gala at the New York Public Library. Judging from the pics it seems like they put on a great show. I’m trying to figure out where Cyndi fits in the mix.

Sidebar: WTF is Kelly doing? Looks like she got her Sasha Fierce on.

Check out Robin Thicke’s new video and second single off Sex Therapy entitled “Rollacoasta” featuring UK’s finest Estelle. Glad to see Robin Thicke is finally breaking the mainstream charts with this new sound…although I can’t stop comparing to Justin Timberlake in this joint.


On another note, when will the Jay-Z collabo “Meiple,” finally drop and make the rounds? Surely that’s coming next…
which I’m sure will be his next radio push if the label sticks to their current recipe for success.

Here’s the official video for Estelle’s “Freak” ft. Kardinal Offishall. The track is off of Estelle’s upcoming album All of Me. Can’t wait for the new album!


Ya gurl LexAve is a huge Estelle fan and the track is fiyah, but the video is not so hot! With all the galactic visuals and funky colors, it’s still lacking something…I just can’t put my finger on it.

EXCLUSIVE: JOHN LEGEND x VAUGHN ANTHONY AT SOBS IN NYC http://str8nyc.com/2010/02/22/exclusive-john-legend-x-vaughn-anthony-at-sobs-in-nyc/ http://str8nyc.com/2010/02/22/exclusive-john-legend-x-vaughn-anthony-at-sobs-in-nyc/#comments Tue, 23 Feb 2010 04:43:25 +0000 LexAve http://str8nyc.com/?p=33847 Tweet

Last Thursday ya gurls LexAve & J’More hit up SOBs for a special set where John Legend x Homeschool Records presented Vaughn Anthony for the second time in NYC. After checking out Vaughn Anthony for the 2nd time, it’s no question the man is fine but I can’t help to point out he sounds too much like big bro John Legend. He may not have the same vocal range but his voice is just so similar to the Grammy winner…but either way makes for great eye candy. Aside from that, also in the building was Estelle & Fat Joe…although Estelle was into posing for any flicks, the woman is a true sweetheart but Fat Joe was all for the cameras and inform us he was dropping another album in June. We’ll see if 50 Cent will get on him for that release. Anywho enjoy the pics and video we snagged.








Here’s John Legend x Vaughn Anthony working the stage together…GREAT!
