Mario Picks Up The Ladies In The “Ooh Baby” Vid—And Real Life
12:22 PM on Thu Jan 21 2010 by Becky Bain
Mario's adventurous D.N.A. hasn't gained much traction, but that may change with his third single, the sexy slowjam "Ooh Baby." (In fact, the Baltimore R&B singer sounds pretty confident of it, starting off the track by saying "I think this one's for the radio.") In the brand-new video for the song, Mario hangs at the club, enjoys a little champagne, and seduces two women at once—and graphically so. The best part? Music video director Mickey Finnegan hardly needed to hire a cast: he tells us that the video is more or less a reality TV-style segment about Mario's typical day. Hear his take on Mario's fame, and maybe catch a glimpse of that (possibly NSFW) threesome after the jump.

Tapemasters’ “Future Of R & B 28″ Will Bring You Joy
1:00 PM on Mon Aug 17 2009 by Maura
Regular readers of this site know that I’m a big fan of the Future Of R&B series of mixes put forth by the mix-happy outfit Tapemasters. The set’s 28th installment hit file-sharing sites over the weekend, and it’s a pretty fantastic collection, programmed like the all-new-tracks R & B station in some alternate universe where things are a lot better than this one. It kicks off with a new track by Beyoncé—the ProToolsy ode to making whoopee “Slow Love”—and kicks into overdrive from there, with contributions by Amerie, Lloyd, Ne-Yo, and Mary J. Blige, among others. My five favorite tracks after the jump. More »

Just when you think Kelly Rowland’s year–which was so bad, her Clash Of The Choirs appearance might actually be one of its highlights–can’t get any worse, it does: She’s now giving away tickets to her upcoming show at the House Of Blues in Atlantic City. More »

It’s time for another look at upcoming albums that have had their release dates pushed back, a condition that’s growing ever more chronic as the bottom seemingly falls out of the music industry. Today, we look at albums by Mariah Carey, Mario, and Ashlee Simpson that are allegedly coming soon, although not as soon as originally thought.

Leak Of The Day, Part II: Mario Has A Pocket Full Of Kryptonite
1:35 AM on Thu Mar 29 2007 by Brian Raftery
“Kryptonite,” the first single from R&B singer Mario’s upcoming Go album, is absolutely coconuts: Much like Omarion’s “Ice Box”, it’s a girl-i’m-so-sorry plea with zero restraint and a sputtering backing track that’s all but begging for multiple remixies. More »
