Is There an Emoticon For Sponsor Love?

Because if there were, Movieline would be loading up a post full of them aimed at Fox Searchlight’s 127 Hours — our valiant sponsor, and your weekend viewing. At the very least, click on one of their ads. It’s the least we can all do to keep the lights on around here. Thanks, Searchlight!

Drake Reveals Plans For Album With Lil Wayne

Drizzy jokes to Tim Westwood about rivaling Kanye and Jay-Z’s Watch the Throne. By Alvin Blanco Drake and Lil Wayne Photo: Julia Beverly Jay-Z and Kanye West already have two potential challengers to their upcoming Watch the Throne. In an interview with U.K. radio personality Tim Westwood, Drake announced that he and Lil Wayne are working on a joint album of their own, and he took a couple of jabs at Hova and Yeezy’s project in the process. “I’ll be on [ Tha Carter IV ], though … We’ve done a great song … and then we’re going to do another one, and another one,” the Young Money MC said. “We still got to do that album. I heard some other guys are coming out with an album, too. There’s two other rappers that are coming out with an album together. … I don’t know where they got that idea but …” Westwood probably knew Drake was referring to Jay-Z and West but played into the coy act, saying, “I’m very slow; can you just break it down a bit simpler for me please?” Then Drake continued, “I just caught wind of it through the grapevine, that there’s some other album coming out with two guys rapping on it too.” “Oh, those two … you mean the older guys,” Westwood said. “Oh, I didn’t say that,” Drake replied. “They look young to me … in their movements.” West and Drake haven’t been as close as they seemed back in 2009, when Yeezy directed the up-and-comer’s video for “Best I Ever Had.” The Toronto rapper recently was left off of the final version of West’s “All of the Lights,” but he told Shade 45 radio that he was OK with it. Drake’s sophomore album, Take Care, is due later this year. Related Photos Drake And Lil Wayne: A Look Back In Photos Related Artists Drake Lil Wayne

Ask Pablo: Is It Finally Time To Get LED Holiday Lights?

Image Source: Mike Deal Dear Pablo: I am still holding out on getting new LED holiday lights because I feel bad about getting rid of the ones that I already have. Are the energy savings worth it? Many of us have a tangled mess of holiday lights in a box in the attic. Every year we bring it out, untangle them, spend hours searching for the one burned out bulb, and hang them on our houses. In addition to all of this effort, the lights use a lot of electricity. You would be surprised by how little of … Read the full story on TreeHugger

La Roux Singer Calls Kanye West’s ‘All Of The Lights’ ‘Big, Bold’

Elly Jackson praises Yeezy for ‘using all the best people you have at your fingertips’ on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy posse track. By Jocelyn Vena La Roux’s Elly Jackson Photo: MTV News Kanye West’s massive, well-received new album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, dropped Monday (November 22), and on it, Yeezy shares the limelight with a number of artists, from fellow MCs Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj and Rick Ross to singers from a variety of genres, including Bon Iver and John Legend. And this is most apparent on his track “All of the Lights.” West’s decision to share the spotlight on the song speaks volumes about the rapper, according to La Roux’s leading lady, Elly Jackson . Rihanna, Alicia Keys, John Legend, The-Dream, Fergie, Kid Cudi, Elton John (on piano), Ryan Leslie, Charlie Wilson and Tony Williams all appear on “All of the Lights.” “What I really liked was the aspect of his idea of using all the best people you have at your fingerprints, that people don’t seem to do that … and I think that was kind of his point with this record,” Elly explained to MTV News. “You know, amongst a lot of other points … I think he wants to create something really amazing with the people he admires the most, and he’s done that and I think that’s a really brave thing to do. “It’s a big, bold thing to do,” she added. “But isn’t that what pop music and big music is about? It’s definitely going to be an amazing record. … It’s massive. It is just huge. It’s a great hip-hop record.” Jackson said that while some may hesitate to share the scene with other stars, West does not, and it just proves how much of a star he really is. “I think it makes him shine more,” she said. “I definitely think it makes him shine more and it shows the clout as well. He just goes, ‘I want this and this and this,’ and he gets it. He’s definitely getting what he wants.” What’s your favorite track on MBDTF ? Tell us in the comments!

La Roux Singer Can’t Hear Her Voice On Kanye West’s ‘All Of The Lights’

‘It’s not the kind of thing where you can pick it out … but apparently it’s there!’ Elly Jackson laughs to MTV News. By Jocelyn Vena La Roux’s Elly Jackson Photo: MTV News If you listen closely, you just might hear La Roux’s leading lady, Elly Jackson, on Kanye West’s massive My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy track “All of the Lights.” And if you do hear her voice on there, you might want to give her a call because, frankly, she can’t hear it herself. “I came to New York, and I did a couple of days in the studio with him,” she told MTV News. “He got me to layer up all these vocals with other people, and he just basically wanted to use his favorite vocalists from around the world to create this really unique vocal texture on his record, but it’s not the kind of thing where you can pick it out. I don’t have a verse or anything. I can’t actually hear my voice on it,” she laughed. “But apparently it’s there!” There are quite a few artists on the track — including Rihanna, Alicia Keys, John Legend, The-Dream, Fergie, Kid Cudi, Elton John (on piano), Ryan Leslie, Charlie Wilson and Tony Williams — and Jackson made sure to get a little something out of Kanye for her vocal duties. “He had been kind of trying to get in touch with us over three months, I think over the summer. And well, obviously, we’d got his calls and stuff, but it was a bit difficult to get our schedules to meet up, so it just took awhile for us to do anything,” she recalled. “And then he said, ‘I’d really love you to sing.’ He was like, ‘Straight up, I want you to sing on the record.’ “And I was like, ‘Well, we’d love for you to do a remix to ‘In for the Kill.’ It’s great. It gets us on different radio and it gets us to a different audience, which is a great thing for any artist,” she said, describing it as a “scratching-each-other’s-back type of situation, which was really nice.” Can you hear Elly on “All of the Lights”?

Drake Made ‘Karaoke’ Beat ‘Personal,’ Francis And The Lights Say

‘He actually made it make sense in a way that didn’t make sense to me before,’ producer Francis Farewell Starlite tells MTV News. By Jayson Rodriguez Francis and the Lights Photo: MTV News Drake’s Thank Me Later was produced mostly by his trusted collaborator Noah “40” Shebib, but the Toronto lyricist ventured into the studio with an array of hip-hop beatsmiths for his debut, from Swizz Beatz to Kanye West. One standout on the project was indie-rock act Francis and the Lights. Frontman Francis Farewell Starlite produced the second song on Thank Me Later, the muted “Karaoke.” After he signed on to tour with Drake , Starlite was asked by the rapper’s camp if he had any music available. Starlite struggled while trying craft the right number, before ultimately deciding to give up a track he was saving for himself. “My immediate reaction was to go into the studio with [my producer], who I work with on most of my things, and we tried to make beats,” he told MTV News. “And we sent one and heard nothing; we sent another and heard nothing. And I sort of realized: It has to be deeper than that. [For] Drake and his people, it has to be good above all, before it’s any genre or anything. So I had a song that I had been working on for a while that I knew was good. I knew it was something special. And I made the decision to give it to him and let it go in that way. So I tracked [‘Karaoke’] in one night in the middle of [recording] my record. I sent it to them, and I heard back in, like, three minutes,” he laughed. The result was a minimalist number on which Drake deftly mixes soft crooning before building up into a straightforward rap about a relationship gone awry. “I remember when you thought I was joking/ Now I’m off singing karaoke, further than I ever been,” Drake sings. “So if you gotta go, if there’s any way I can help.” The song parallels material more likely to be on a Francis and the Lights project than anything in a retailer’s rap bin. Starlite said Drake didn’t tweak the music much, but admitted the Young Money star’s vocals gave the song a vitality it initially lacked. “He made it better, unquestionably, from what I had,” the singer said. “And that’s a good feeling. He made it very personal, but making some very subtle changes and doing his thing on it, obviously, with the verses. He actually made it make sense in a way that didn’t make sense to me before.” What do you think of Francis and the Lights’ production work for Drake? Let us know in the comments!
