Kanye West – Stronger (Live on VH1 Storytellers)

Posted in Artists, Kanye West, Live Performances, Videos on February 25th, 2009 by Hyphen

“The Number One Human Being” performs a crazy rendition of “Stronger” on VH1’s Storytellers, the full version of which airs on Saturday.  I’m a sucker for dope flashing lights (lights…lights) and this track is a hip-hop classic.  Yeah, I said it.

Anthony Hamilton – A Change Is Gonna Come (video)

Posted in Artists, Live Performances, Music Videos on December 19th, 2008 by Hyphen

I would imagine that everyone prefers Sam Cooke’s original version, but of all the R&B singers out today, Hamilton is one of a few that could pull this off nicely.  The original is beyond classic, but Anthony does a pretty damn good job.

Murs live at Amoeba Music

Posted in Artists, Live Performances, Murs on December 19th, 2008 by Hyphen

I think I remember seeing this footage go around the blogs back at the end of September, but I never posted it up for some reason.  As I mentioned in the post on his Sound Session appearance, Murs is one of the hardest working artists out there.  He consistently puts his all into his live performances, and that’s on display here in the footage from Amoeba’s Hollywood store.  Peep the video and watch him run through tracks like “Better Than The Best,” “H-U-S-T-L-E,” “Bad Man,” “Can It Be,” “Silly Girl,” “Lookin’ Fly,” and more.

Thanks to Paul for sending this through.
