(Interview) @JermainePaul..winner of #TheVoice X Interview with Access Hollywood

Those of you who follow my main account may have seen me tweet about that show from time to time. I didn't always 'weigh in' publicly on it but I KEPT A CLOSE EYE ON IT all the time. He was my favorite to win it all from the beginning. (It is in those Tweets somewhere..go find it if you must have confirmation) due to his VOICE AND HIS EXPERIENCE. I DEFINITELY think it would have been a disappointment to me if he had not performed well enough to win.


Not that he was the only one on the show with talent. Hell no. I know folks saying that the runner up should have won... I won't 'argue' that. Not because I 'can't' but rather it is their opinion. Mine just happens to differ and I don't argue 'opinions'. That is pointless.  There was some TALENT on that show. He faced some HEAD UP a little earlier than I think even The Voice's folks would have like in hindsight.. (Those of you who watched the show, you KNOW THE EARLY ELIMINATION round I'm talking about...That should have been a 'Finals' type of thing...) Anyway..congratulations to him. Lets see if this parlays into something bigger for Jermaine. I hope it does.

I put this last video up because I wanted to remind folks that behind all of what you see up top, there is a person in the background. She is actually a pretty sweet person, based on the little bit of interaction I have had with her. She seems to know what she wants and that this is not forever. @ this urban modeling thing. That's a good thing. Just listen to her talk..

(Video) @young_guru breaks down the Niggas in Paris vs Niggas in Poorest

Courtesy of Rap Radar..


What are YOUR THOUGHTS on what he said?

How did I take it? I took it as a diss AT FIRST but I respect the fact that Mos has the right to speak on the other side of it. What I would LIKE to see is Mos get back to a platform where it doesn't have to be a 'response' to record. (He does MAKE RECORDS ADDRESSING THIS obviously but his platform isn't as big as Jay's. Acting career or not. He isn't getting played on 'non rap playing' radio stations, WSTW comes to mind. They play NIGGAS IN PARIS on their station..) Mr. Keaton kinda touches on that at the end of the video. @ if folks agree with Mos like they say, then give him the platform then...BY SUPPORTING HIM financially when his records come out. That is where my own issue lies with the record. It isn't that I believe he is dissing Jay (and 'Ye) but more about the fact that he KNOWS how folks are. They are gonna take it as a diss. He probably could have cleared it up a bit IHMO as to what his 'real' motive is. (Which is to speak on the other side of things). Or maybe he doesn't care to do so. (Which is my personal opinion. I could be wrong. I can accept that..) Either way, it is nice to see someone articulate that for him as a possible alternative as to how one should 'take the record'. *




*It should be noted that WHILE I AM A HUGE FAN OF JAY AND 'YE, I am actually not CRAZY about "Niggas In Paris' So there is no heat coming from me in that regard.. I don't 'hate' Mos either actually. I think he is pretty dope. I haven't forgotten his 'drunken' rant about Jay though. Sorry. So I know there is history there.
