'Count the Kills: The Short Movie
On the 'Count The Kills' album release day, Beyonce, Jay-Z & Kanye West made a surprise to the fans by premiering a short movie titled 'Count The Kills'. It's basically a short movie in which all 18 songs of the album are featured on. Each song get 1 minute and a half of the short movie's time. The short movie starts by showing Beyonce, she's wearing a black leotard and she's pole dancing in a strip club. One of the guys who are watching her dance around is clearly shown and we slowly see that it's Jay-Z. 'On Hold' starts playing. After meeting up with her after the club closes, Jay-Z brings her back home and while they do love, Kanye West is shown singing his verses. The song slowly into 'Enraged (Feat. Rihanna)'. Rihanna is shown having some fun Kanye West. A few days later Rihanna is seen being pushed into a dark room by a stranger who rapes her. Rihanna is shown after the event crying and still trying to be fierce. She get's up and sees a piece of metal between all the scrap in the dark room. She takes it get's up and runs after the rapist. Right when he sees her she slits his throat and starts crying again by seeing what she has done. She goes back to her own room and commits suicide. Then 'Hurts' starts playing. Kanye gets into the room and finds his 'lover' (played by Rihanna) dead. He starts singing the lyrics, and Beyonce (who plays a friend and roommate of Kanye in the movie), starts trying to comfort him while singing the lyrics.
By the time 'Hurts' ends, we see a few scenes of Jay-Z and Eminem smoking together and thinking about the people that matter to them. Jay-Z starts remembering the night he had with Beyonce and starts saying how much Beyonce matters to him and how he'd like to see her again. During 'Broken', Jay-Z meets up with her again and declares he's love for her. When 'Out There/Clear View' starts playing Kanye is seen preparing himself to kill the people who worked with the guy who raped Rihanna. During Iggy Azalea's verse, Kanye is seen walking into a room full of men in a sort of bar. He takes a gun our and starts shooting everyone. By the end of the song, everyone in the room is shown dead and Kanye's face is shown and he seems happy and ok with what he's done. He then walks away. 'Be Great' Starts playing and Jay-Z is shown on a date with Beyonce. During and after the date it's 'Je t'adore' & 'Thousands'that play. The song starts getting darker and suddenly we can hear the familliar 'Fangs' beat. Kanye West is shown walking on a small dark road and suddenly a beautiful girl appears right behind him and attacks him. When we look closely we can see that it's actually Megan Fox. She plays the role of one of the girlfriends of one of man in the room. She wants revenge for her dead boyfriend and starts hurting Kany as much as possible, Kanye is surprised at first but after a small fight he stops Megan. She suddenly kisses Kanye, Kanye is surprised but the his need to be loved is too much so he kisses back and brings her back to his own apartment that he shares with Beyonce. She seduces him slowly but suddenly takes out a small revolver and tries to shoot Kanye but he was too fast, he jumps right away and hides behind some furniture he gets his own revolver out and when he shoots Beyonce & Jay-Z are back at the apartment and they heard the gun shots that Megan shot so they get in and immediately get some knives they saw on a table and jump right at her. Basically they killed her all at the same time. 'Count the kills' started playing during the fight and all three continue singing it afterwards. 'Bullets on My Floor (Feat. Lana Del Rey)' Lana Del Rey sings softly while Kanye and Jay-Z look at the damage done by Megan which goes on during 'Sugar (Feat. Frank ocean)'. During 'Get It Wrong' Beyonce and Kanye West are shown bonding because of the event and saying they'll have each other's back. The concept goes on with 'La Religion' where Beyonce, Jay-Z & Kanye West say they'll always look out for each other, they are some sort of 'Family' and family is like a religion. During the last song of the album, 'This Crown (Mine)' All three are shown in some luxurious room with the dead people they killed all over the ground. they are shown successively sitting on a throne and playing around with a crown.

Kesha: My Crazy Beautiful Life S03E01
Kesha's reality has been renewed for a 3rd season and Sunday evening saw the first episode air.
The reality show's first episode saw Kesha fight for her collaboration with The Flaming Lips, as Dr. Luke was sabotaging it. Luke denied Kesha the right to release the collaborative album, but Kesha is determined to complete the album.
Back at home, away from Luke, Kesha speaks with her mother about the problems she has with her label. Pebe has never liked Luke to begin with, not even when Kesha and him were dating. She advises Kesha to have a word with Luke about her contract and him denying her the rights to her own voice.
In an interview with Pebe, she said: "I've never liked the dude and I knew he was a bad person, behind that mask he's put up. He's a good producer don't get me wrong and I'm grateful for him giving Kesha a chance, but at this point she would be better off away from him".
The scene camera then switches to Kesha in the Kemosabe HQ as she walks into Dr. Luke's office to have a word with him. She says: "Luke, we need to talk about my contract and you denying me my rights to my own voice". The camera then turns black as the episode ends.
Kesha's new single, 'Beautiful Mess', is out now on Itunes, Amazon and physical copies are available at your local supermarket.

SU2C aims to raise significant funds for translational cancer research through online and televised efforts. One of Mariah's album track, "I'm Not Done" has officially become the theme song for Stand Up To Cancer for a year.
This news was confirmed through a press conference made by the Stand Up to Cancer organization itself. Mariah also attended the press conference to give support to them. "One out of every two men and one out of every three women will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime, meaning everyone is affected in some way, or will be." said one of the Stand Up to Cancer members.
"I'm glad that "I'm Not Done" will be the theme song for Stand Up to Cancer and it's for a great cause. This song talks about staying positive and not giving up, despite the situation that you are currently facing." Mariah stated in during the press conference. An instrumental of her current lead single "Libidinous Dream" will be first played for a few seconds before transtioning to "I'm Not Done" in the Stand Up to Cancer commercials nationwide. The decision was met with positive feedback from the GP and critics alike.

MARIAH "BIANCA" CAREY NBC SPECIAL PREMIER
Today, The Chanteuse shows an insight to her darker alter ego, Bianca and why she decides to embrace her alter ego this era.
Quote:
Interviewer: Welcome to Mariah "Bianca" Carey's NBC Special !! Live from Mariah's own apartment in NYC, give it up for Mariah's alter ego, Bianca !!
Bianca: Thank you !! Never have I have a TV Special on just me !! This is an exciting experience to be honest !!
Interviewer: So how's this era going out for you ?
Bianca: It's going great so far !! Getting a Top 20 single after 24 years in the business is great news for me. Being featured for 5 minutes on all TV channels also gave me an opportunity to voice out my thoughts on the current state of the music industry in 2014. Those small peasants just come and go but never stay long.
Interviewer: The live performances this era has been great. But we haven't seen you, Bianca performing any songs. Any reason why ?
Bianca: First and foremost, thank you for the compliment !! I have always disliked the idea of performing live on TV. But my other self loves performing, and she also has rested her voice very well this era too. Those rave reviews keep on coming in, especially with the performance at the BET Awards. That performance alone got many people talking and I'm proud to have my other self.
Interviewer: Wow, and you are going to personally debut some of these songs off your album soon by performing them !!
Bianca: I know right !! I'm very nervous to be honest !! I've never perform in my life and this is my first time performing !!
Interviewer: How was the songwriting and production process for you ?
Bianca: It was a wonderful process !! I never knew writing and producing songs on my latest album would be so fun !! Only two songs were written by my other self; "Faithful" and "Settle Down" which talks about marrying someone you love and eventually settling down.
Interviewer: Ok then, the time has arrived !! Let me present you the first intimate performance, the acoustic version of "Libidinous Dream" !!
|
Bianca wore a black sexy tank top with shorts as she walked to the chair provided. The guitar was played by one of Mariah's assistant. Set on the lounge area, Bianca then started singing. Her singing style is different from what Mariah normally does. Her low notes were stronger than her other self. The background decoration makes her stand out. She later hit those whistle notes perfectly as the background vocalist backed her up in the last chorus.
Quote:
Interviewer: Annnnddddd, we are back from her acoustic performance of "Libidinous Dream"!! So let's get started. Why did you titled the album "The Stygian Chevalier"?
Bianca: As I've already said in some interviews, this album will be my darkest album yet. Those who thought songs like "Thirsty" and "Looking In" were dark enough, they will be proven wrong in this album. And I wanted an exaggerated album title to boost some interest from the GP (Cackles)
Interviewer: (Laughs) Could you give us some insight on your collaboration between Azealia Banks?
Bianca: One of the most talented female rapper on the scene right now. After the BET Awards Performance, I was hooked to her songs. And the funny thing is, this collaboration was a coincidence cause we were both at the same recording studio when I walked up to her and asked her for a collaboration. She agreed and we wrote "Nothing To Prove" in like an hour or so. The production of the song took us half a day to work it out though.
Interviewer: Wow. Maybe God placed the both of you together at the same place so that y'all can create the magic.
Bianca: Yeah.
Interviewer: Last question before we move on the debut acoustic performance of "Nothing To Prove" ft. Azealia Banks. Why the shading towards other current acts recently?
Bianca: I don't know to be honest. It's a part of me to shade someone. Also most of them make use of controversy to fuel their popularity of their latest song or album. That's why I wrote a song on the album which is dedicated to them, called "Peasants".
Interviewer: Ok the time has arrived to perform "Nothing To Prove" ft Azealia Banks acoustically followed by another solo performance of "Disguise" !!
|
Bianca wore a sexy red tank top with a mini red skirt. Azealia on the other hand wore a black colored tank top with jeans. Bianca started off by belting "I haaavveee NoTHinnnggg Tooooooo ProooOooOoovveee !!" acapella. Bianca croons through the verse and "I've been on top like a dragon" and "Peasants like you won't reach my status" were highlights of the song's verse. The second verse kicked in with Azealia rapping about her ups and downs in life, and that she has nothing to prove cause she's secure of herself. The chorus had a touch of 90s hip hop influence with Bianca crooning "I've got Nothin', Nothing To Prove" When the bridge kicked in Azealia raps again as Bianca croons in the background and the both of them started an impromptu dance battle which they had fun with. "Give It Up for Azealia folks !!" Bianca shouted as the song ended and Azealia gave Mariah "Bianca" Carey a hug before she left the scene to rest. The performance of "Nothing To Prove" is accompanied by a guitar and the backing vocalists.
The performance is then followed by "Disguise", a song talking about her insecurities and how she has learned to defend herself from all the attacks she has faced. The song's structure is very abstract. Her voice breaks were on spot and gave the song more life and emotion. The belt in the end "I've had enough of disguising anymore" and "The mask you wore is just for show" showed a lot of pain. The performance of "Disguise" was only accompanied by the piano and the backing vocalists.
Quote:
Interviewer: And once again we are back !! Lets ask about your childhood.
Bianca: I think it's because of the horrendous childhood that I have that I was created. I think it was from all of the anger that I've suppressed all my childhood years.
Interviewer: Also do you love dembabies ??
Bianca: To tell you the truth, I hate kids !! Their immaturity always turns me off. But dembabies are very mature, Monroe is so diva-ish while Moroccan is so manly at their young age. My other self really brought them up well.
Interviewer: How did the collaboration between Nas came out?? I mean you have collaborated with him the third time.
Bianca: I had been always planning to have a Part II version of "Heartbreaker" and I felt that Nas had something special when he raps. So I decided to have him as a feature in this song. This version is from my point of view and not my other self, Mariah.
Interviewer: Ok, tell me what's the first thing that comes into your mind when I say a song title.
Bianca: Ok
Interviewer: You Need me
Bianca: What ?!? I need you ?!? (Laughs)
Interviewer: (Laughs) That's a song title. Let have another one. Medusa.
Bianca: Weird for a song title, but it's controversial hehe....
Interviewer: That's all for today!! The time has arrived to perform "Heartbreaker (Part II) ft. Nas.
Bianca: Yeah!!
|
Wearing a t-shirt and pants, Nas made a simple appearance with Mariah also wearing simple clothing. The song starts with Nas rapping over the sultry acoustic instrumental. The song has similarities to the original "Heartbreaker" as it has the same hook which grabs listeners attention. "You crush my heart many times" and "I am in a losing fight with you" were standout lyrics from the song. The chorus had Bianca belting out time to time. In the final chorus, the sound grew louder as Bianca sang higher and higher before suddenly ending the song. And this concludes the Mariah "Bianca" Carey NBC TV Special
This NBC TV Special has garnered 6.5 million audiences. It's unusually huge due to the fact that its on a weekday. The TV ratings from the demographic scale between 18-49 is currently rated 5 out of 5 stars so far. Insider sources are saying that the NBC stakeholders are pleased at the TV ratings and may promote Mariah's upcoming album, "The Stygian Chevalier" as a thank you for bringing in high TV ratings and audiences.
