<p>At less than a week old, Blue Ivy Carter is already making chart history, thanks to a slick feature on daddy Jay-Z&#8217;s <em>Glory</em>. (Some kids have all the luck.)</p>
<p>According to Billboard, Baby Blue (or B.I.C., as Beyonce/Jay-Z&#8217;s daughter is credited on the track) is the youngest person to ever land on the chart in history. The track is currently sitting at #74 on the R&#038;B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. Since Blue Ivy was born late on Saturday, it is likely that she was only hours old when her voice was recorded for the song. </p>
<p>The heartfelt song about fatherhood was produced by Pharrell.</p>
<p>With references to Bey&#8217;s previous miscarriage and his own absent father, Jay-Z doesn&#8217;t hold back the heartbreak on the otherwise joyous tune. </p>
<p>Personally, I find this vulnerable side of Jay-Z to be completely refreshing!</p>
<p>Congrats to Beyonce and Jay-Z on the birth of their baby girl!</p>

The Horrors recently hit up BBC Radio 1, covering Beyonce&#8217;s Best Thing I Never Had. The arrangement mixed with frontman Faris Badwan&#8217;s vocals sends the breakup anthem into a disheveled indie rock state of mind. 
It&#8217;s random, bizarre and unexpected, and that&#8217;s what makes it so cool. 
I dig.

<p>Some people&#8217;s lives are changed in normal ways &#8212; ya know, graduating college, buying a home, plopping out a baby. But me? My life was changed this weekend at a Beyonce concert.</p>
<p>Not just any Beyonce concert, mind you. This concert was the real deal &#8212; Beyonce, like she&#8217;s never been seen before, in an intimate setting, a small venue to truly capture the bootylicious essence we all know and love. But beyond the dance numbers, Beyonce&#8217;s heart and soul came bursting through and by the end of the show &#8212; when she sang my personal favorite &#8216;I Was Here&#8217; &#8212; I found myself moved to tears.</p>
<p>I feel so blessed to have a part of such an intimate rare Beyonce experience.</p>
<p>The night was taped and will be released on an upcoming DVD/TV special I do believe.</p>
<p>And as expected, the show was absolutely incredible.</p>
<p>Watch some videos I shot from the show below.</p>
<p>I hope each of you get a chance to see this woman perform live once in your lifetime. </p>
<p>And oh! I guess I should also point out that Sir Paul McCartney was in attendance and even gave Bey a standing ovation. Get it, gurl! Even royalty is taking notice of your brilliance.</p>

<p><center><font size=4.5><strong>&#8220;If anyone is brave and true to themselves, it&#8217;s my gay fans. The amount of confidence and fearlessness it takes to do what maybe is not what your parents expect you to do or what society may think is different &#8211; to be brave and be different and be true to yourself &#8211; is just so beautiful. It&#8217;s the most beautiful thing you can be, and it&#8217;s what we all want to be at the end of the day. And not worrying about satisfying or becoming what other people think you&#8217;re supposed to be, that&#8217;s like the ultimate dream &#8211; to just be that brave.&#8221;</strong></font></p>

<p>The incredible <em>I Was Here </em>(my personal favorite from <em>4</em>) opus below. It brought me to tears the first time I heard it &#8212; it&#8217;s a beaut. Random &#8220;cute&#8221; clip following, because I felt it fit the aesthetic quite nicely.</p>

The flashmob to end all flashmobs&#8230;
Yo Target peeps, is it possible to incorporate flashmobs into the Target shopping experience?

<p>Yo Target peeps, is it possible to incorporate flashmobs into the Target shopping experience? Perhaps a &#8220;Flashmob Friday&#8221; event, to go with your sale on toilet paper and those weird breath strip thingys that taste like cough syrup-y crap then vanish on your tongue (or whatever random items are on sale for that particular weekage)? Hello! That&#8217;s a good idea? No?</p>
<p>Just a thought.</p>
<p>Please note: The awesome clip you&#8217;re about to see was choreographed by Todrick Hall, who is best known as being a finalist on Season 9 of American Idol. </p>

Beyonce&#8217;s new album 4 drops today!
Yup, today is my birthday. It&#8217;s a sign!
If you have not heard the record, get on it. The album is Beyonce&#8217;s bottle of wine, polished in a mature and chill way that&#8217;s never been showcased on previous efforts.

<p>Beyonce&#8217;s new album <em>4</em> drops today!</p>
<p>Yup, today is my birthday. It&#8217;s a sign!</p>
<p>If you have not heard the record, get on it. The album is Beyonce&#8217;s bottle of wine, polished in a mature and chill way that&#8217;s never been showcased on previous efforts. </p>
<p><em>Rolling Stone</em> said it best:</p>
<p><font size=4.5><strong> &#8220;Beyonce&#8217;s new album <em>4</em> is a change of pace for the R&#038;B queen. While her first three solo albums were full of blockbuster jams, <em>4</em> is a more relaxed, personal set that emphasizes ballads over bangers and showcases the singer&#8217;s nuances; it&#8217;s very much the sort of album a pop star makes when she doesn&#8217;t feel like she has anything to prove.&#8221; </strong></font></p>
<p>Watch a recent performance below.</p>
<p>*Note: This is a clip from BK&#8217;s recent Glastonbury show that aired on BET. </p>
<p>As usual, she murders.</p>

Cuteness coma!
Earlier this week, I had heard some rumble over Charice deleting her Facebook account. Apparently it was due to the fact that some haters were throwing around the &#8220;F&#8221; word on her page, spreading negativity. And no, I don&#8217;t mean that &#8220;F&#8221; word.

<p>Earlier this week, I had heard some rumble over Charice deleting her Facebook account. Apparently it was due to the fact that some haters were throwing around the &#8220;F&#8221; word on her page, spreading negativity. And no, I don&#8217;t mean that &#8220;F&#8221; word. I mean this one &#8212; three letters, also spelled with a PH. Yep, FAT.</p>
<p>Honestly, myself and BTB as a whole, we really don&#8217;t care about that. Why? Because all that matters is what happens when Charice hits the stage, and rips it to shreds with her ferocious vocal ability.</p>
<p>The only fat thing about Charice is her raw talent and her adorability factor. Those things combined are pretty obese! I think I can speak for the majority of the population (at least those with workable eyes and unclogged ears) when I say that Charice, honey, you&#8217;re all that and a bag of chips! (Do people still say this? Oh well, I just did!)</p>
<p>And listen, not to get all Bruno Mars-y but you&#8217;re beautiful&#8230;just the way you are!</p>
<p>Check out the new lyric video for <em>Louder</em> + one of my favorite Charice performances (covering Beyonce&#8217;s <em>Halo</em>) following.</p>
