Yup yup, today is Superbowl XLIV. Now you don’t see much Sports coverage around these parts but events like the Superbowl just cannot be missed. Today’s game will be the Indianapolis Colts against the New Orleans Saints. The underdogs, Saints, have been getting some major support but will they take home the trophy for their first Superbowl game or will the Colts take it home?

Then of course there are the commercials. It was reported that companies were paying some 3 million USD for a 30 second spot. We look forward to being entertained.

The halftime show will feature The Who, who will perform will play a medley of their hits, including “Pinball Wizard”, “Who Are You”, “Baba O’Riley”, and “Won’t Get Fooled Again”. Also look out for for Will.i.am’s and Slash’s remake of The Who’s “My Generation.” Listen to the 30 second snippet below.

One last thing, you would think with all that’s going on this weekend there would be tons of material to post. Well, we have more than enough celebs to post but not much new music.

Every so often there comes along an urban song with lots of bass and a catchy hook with lyrics about all things materialistic and superficial. That song usually goes on to be a radio hit and flood the speakers of many clubs. Our nominee for the next one is “Beamer, Benz or Bentley” by Lloyd Banks featuring Juelz Santana.

First and foremost, it’s always the instrumental that makes the song and this song has a slammin’ beat. Next, is the stream of shallow lyrics; this song definitely has a shallow meaning. Lastly it’s the swag style of the rapper to carry the song and Banks carries the song well. Are y’all ready to bounce?

Diamond, Trina, Ludacris, Nicki Minaj & Eve on "My Chick Bad" video set

Some of the elite bloggers were able to listen to Ludacris’ Battle of the Sexes last week and there was a general opinion of which song stood out from the bunch. That song was “My Chick Bad” featuring Nicki Minaj. Well, the song leaked this morning, so how was it?

First off, it’s great to see Ludacris get back into his fun club music. Theater of the Mind was a great album but a bit serious for Ludacris. Okay, so the song is a definite banger. Nicki Minaj’s flow is a bit better in this song and fits with the urban orchestral production. Overall, we’re bouncin’ left to right with the rhythmic bass.

This song leaked a few months back but the now the tagless version is here. It’s annoyingly unbelievable how catchy her mediocre leftovers are. It must be those oversung harmonies.

Beyoncé – Ice Cream (No tags)

In other Bey news, the entertainer approached Kings of Leon for a possible future collaboration:

The 28-year-old star approached Nathan, Caleb, Jared and Matthew Followill at a Grammy after-party and is said to have spent the whole night discussing ideas for new songs.

“Beyonce looked stunning and was chatting to virtually every major star on hand,” an onlooker told British newspaper The Daily Mirror. “She kissed Kings of Leon on their cheeks and congratulated them on winning an award for Use Somebody.

“They were chatting for ages. She knows how huge they are in the UK and loves their album. She was scouting for people to collaborate with and has been talking about doing something different with a rock band. Kings of Leon would be perfect.” [SOURCE]

UPDATE: Despite that bit of Kings of Leon news, it has not been 100% confirmed. Proph informed us that it was the UK’s Daily Mirror that originally reported the story. The tabloid magazine has a reputation for hyperboles.
