It's Vacation Video Friday... Akon & "Don't Matter"

This week's pick is by none other than Akon and the video is entitled: "Don't Matter."
It is a beautifully shot video showcasing the carefree, but beautiful local island life. It's full of eye candy for all of us adults with Akon (for us ladies) and the pretty ladies (for the fellas).

This video is a wonderful example of a perfect Caribbean vacation with the drive thru the mountains, stopping roadside to drink a little coconut water, strolling on the beach with your baby, playing in the beautiful blue waters of the ocean and partying all night at an island jam.
It makes you want to hop a plane to the Caribbean with your baby and have and enjoy some quality time.

So Sit back and enjoy a little island life with Akon...

"Don't Matter" from the 2007 CD, "Konvicted"

Vacation Video Friday...Saturday

Vacation Video...Friday via Saturday!

Here's another edition of Vacation Video Friday...This week's pick is by 'the one...the only' HOV aka Jay-Z!

We all know that Jay-Z does everything in first class style. Over the years he has been a prominent figure in the hip hop world. When he is not rapping or performing he takes time out to explore and vacation in some of the worlds' most exotic destinations. We have seen Jay-Z and his wife Beyonce, vacation in St. Barth's, Anguilla and the South of France. Jay-Z has also been known to travel the world is his music videos. One popular destination amongst the celebrity set is the tiny island of Monaco (home to American Movie Legend & Princess Grace Kelly). Jay-Z chose this beautiful destination as the back drop for his 'Show Me What You Got' video from one of my favorite CD's 'Kingdom Come.'

So sit back and relax and take in the beautiful sites of Monaco via Jay-Z and a few of his celeb friends, racing superstars Danica Patrick & Dale Earnhardt, Jr. Fast cars, beautiful people, exotic destination, yacht's, water mixed together equals a hot video...

Ladies and Gentleman...'Show Me What You Got" by Jay-Z

Vacation Video Friday Tribute to 'The King of Pop' Michael Jackson

With a sadden heart we all mourn the untimely passing of one of our favorite entertainers, 'The King of Pop' Michael Jackson...I had the honor of seeing Michael Jackson perform live on his "BAD" tour. It was phenomenal! MJ's music videos were the industry standard. Quite simply, he made the best, most innovative music videos. "Remember the Time" with Eddie Murphy as Pharoah, "Scream" with sister Janet Jackson are just two of my favorites in a list that could go on endlessly.

So, this week's Vacation Video Friday is a tribute to Michael Jackson, 'The King of Pop' and one of my all time favorite entertainers. Rest in Peace Friend! We Love You More...

First Up..."Black or White"

See MJ dance his way across the world in this video that also introduced the world to 'video morphing' and features a young and vibrant Tyra Banks and actor Maucauley Caulkin. In this music video MJ dances thru Africa, India, Russia, and NYC before ending with a memorable solo dance routine.

Re-live the memories...





Next..."Remember the Time" directed by John Singleton

In this mini movie, MJ travels thru time and takes us back to my favorite historical place and time period - Egypt and the time period of Pharoah Rameses. It is a beautifully choreographed, shot and edited video. Only Michael Jackson was good enough to entertain a Pharoah and his Queen...

Step back in time for yourself...


"Remember the Time" also features cameos by Magic Johnson, supermodel Iman and director John Singleton.

My last pick in our MJ Vacation Video Friday tribute is "Scream" with baby sister & music icon in her own right Janet Jackson. Only Michael Jackson could make traveling thru outer space look so cool. Only Michael Jackson could have cartoon icon Speed Racer do a few cameos in his video.

"Scream" featuring Janet Jackson

Enjoy!



Rest in Peace Michael Jackson! Your music will endure forever...
