Empire is a musical drama television series that started airing on the Fox channel. This hip hop family drama series tells a story of a music empire. Empire was created by Lee Daniels and Danny Strong. Season 1 of Empire premiered on the Fox channel on January 7, 2015.
The new drama series stars Terrence Howard (Iron Man, Hustle & Flow) and Taraji P. Henson (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Person of Interest). Other cast members of Empire include Bryshere Gray, Jussie Smollett, Trai Byers, Kaitlin Doubleday and Grace Gealey. Courtney Love and Macy Gray were added to the cast as well, and Naomi Campbell was announced in a recurring role.
Fab and French teamed up for “Ball Drop” featuring a familiar horn sampling. Fab has been in the game for the longest but he looks exactly the same since the first time he came to the scene. According to his bio he is 38, really? Maybe he’s lying his age, I don’t know but he definitely belongs to Pharrell’s never-age-club. Same thing with Jay-Z, he’s forever young. If you look too old you better not expect any offers to collaborate with young rappers. “Ball Drop” is the party anthem at clubs exclusively playing Hip-Hop.
A trap song with a hip hop beat and a reggae flavor from Rihanna’s new album will surely be embraced by black girls. The best way to make a group of bored ladies on the floor is to play songs by Rihanna, Beyonce and Ciara back to back. You can make them smile.
Trey Songz’ classic slow jam reminisces smooth ballads of 90’s R&B singer Genuwine. Nice and sexy. It’s like the situation is reversed mostly guys who request for this song, not ladies…….why? Because he is Trey Songz!

B.O.B.’s new single “Not For Long” pairs him with Trey Songz, who delivers a pop-inflected R&B hook. Honestly, I never thought Trey Songz could be this big. He is still holding it down!
Real Love – Clean Bandit & Jess Glynne
Rather Beが大ヒット中のブリティッシュ エレクトロ グループの新曲。これもまた良いな〜!!同じボーカリスト、Rather Be みたいなパンチがあって、かつ心地よい歌声..これも間違いなくクラブでかかるでしょう。メンバーみんな楽器を演奏するスタイルみたいなので、Liveみてみたいです！
Following on the heels of this summer’s mega-hit “Rather Be,” British electronic group Clean Bandit has reteamed with Jess Glynne for “Real Love.” They have a reputation as a great band and I really want to see their live performance!
No Type – Rae Sremmurd
この曲はそこまでラジオやクラブでずっとかかってるってわけじゃないのですが、アトランティック・ シティーのバーテンダーのお姉さん達が、これかけってて毎週聞いてくるので..3位に入れてみました。Rae Sremmurd は今 No Flex Zoneが大ヒット中です。この曲ももうすぐクラブでバンバンかかるようになるかも?!
Not that this song is banging on the chart or on the radio, lady mixologists at Atlantic City’s club request “No Type” every week makes me pick this joint for my chart. “No Flex Zone” by Rae Sremmurd is on fire right now!
