Get Served Tour 2007 - Omarion, Marques & Avant

September 3rd 2007 10:57

Click to enlarge

OH SNAP! Omarion, Marques and Avant.

I just creamed my pants.

*breathes*

These three sexy R&B crooners will be heading to Australian shores this November. Bring at least 2 spare changes of underwear.

And YOU can win a double pass to see them in concert in Sydney! Enter the competition to win tickets to the Sydney show of the Get Served Tour 2007!

It would be cool to see the other half of Immature come down to have a little reunion performance, then the other half of B2K to do a bigger reunion performance. Oh yeah I know I'm gonna be asked this so I'll answer it now - apparently Omarion and Marques are half brothers.

Get your tickets from Ticketek (Brisbane, Melbourne) or Ticketmaster (Sydney, Auckland).

[EDIT Monday 5th November 2007]

The highly anticipated Get Served Tour scheduled to be held in Australia and New Zealand in early November 2007 has been rescheduled. This action is unavoidable due to a personal matter within the Touring Party.

The affected dates are listed below:

· Wednesday 7th November 2007 – Chandler Theatre, Brisbane

· Thursday 8th November 2007 – Sydney Entertainment Centre, Sydney
· Friday 9th November 2007 – Vodafone Arena, Melbourne
· Saturday 10th November 2007 – Vector Arena, Auckland

Ticket holders are urged to hold onto their tickets with prime seating positions and availabilities becoming scarce. All existing tickets will remain valid for the new dates. It is anticipated that the remaining tickets will be selling fast with new tour dates coinciding with the school holiday period.
For those who may be inconvenienced by the new date change, a full refund will be obtainable from all ticketing outlets.

The tour dates will be officially announced later this week, with the possibility of a confirmed fourth artist set to appear on the bill in addition to Omarion, Marques Houston and Avant.

The response to the tour has been overwhelming with tickets selling fast for all shows, and the Artists set to provide an exhilarating performance down under. The artists have been long anticipating the tour to Australia and New Zealand, with a full scale dance performance included in their massive 3 hour live show.

The rescheduling of the tour makes for greater anticipation and build up to one of the best Urban Music tours to hit Australian shores in the last few years, and the possible addition of the fourth artist will make for an unforgettable Get Served Tour.

Marques Houston - Naked

Nas - Can't Forget About You - Video

July 6th 2007 05:24

Nas

I've been digging this track for a while. From the rich lyrics dripping with hints of Hip Hop history to the catchy soulful chorus sung by Chrisette Michele that samples Nat King Cole's "Unforgettable" classic in this Will.I.Am produced track, Nas' "Can't Forget About You" is reminiscent of the good old days and has been promoted to one of my main ringtones.

Peep the vid:

Lyrics:

[Nas- Verse One]

There comes a day in your life
When you want to kick back
Straw hat on the porch
When you old perhaps
Want to gather your thoughts
Have a cold one, Brag
To your grand kids on how life is golden
So I’ma light a cigar in the corridor of the crib
Pictures on the wall of all the things that I did
All the money and fame, 8 by 10’s
Of the whole rap pack inside of a big frame
Colliding with big names that could’ve made you career stop
All that, and your man is still here, and I’m still hot
Wow, I need a moment ya’ll, See I almost felt a tear drop

When was the last time you heard real anthem?
Nas, the millionaire, the mansion
When was the last time you heard your boy Nas rhyme?
Never on schedule, but always on time.

[Chorus- Chrisette Michele]
These streets hold my deepest days
This hood taught me golden ways
Made me (truly this is what made me)
Break me (not a things gonna break me)
These streets hold my deepest days
This hood taught me golden ways
Made me (truly this is what made me)
Break me (not a things gonna break me)
Oh, I’m that history, I’m that block
I’m that lifestyle, I’m that that spot
I’m that kid by the number spot
That’s my past that made me hot
Here’s my lifelong anthem
Can’t forget about you (Can’t forget about you)

[Verse Two]

Can’t forget about the old school
Bam, Cas, Mel lie Mel flash,
Rocks steady spinning on they back
Can’t forget when the first rap Grammy when to Jazzy
Fresh Prince, Fat Boys broke up,
Rap hasnt been the same since
So irregular, how it mess you up when Mr. T became a wrestler
Can’t forget about Jordan’s retirement
The shot Robert Horry hit to win the game in the finals kid
Some things are forever, some things are not
It’s the things we remember that gave the world shock
They stay in a place in your mind so snug
Like who the person was with whom you first made love

When was the last time you heard real anthem?
Nas, the millionaire, the mansion
When was the last time you heard your boy Nas rhyme?
Never on schedule, but always on time.

[Chorus]

These streets hold my deepest days
This hood taught me golden ways
Made me (truly this is what made me)
Break me (not a things gonna break me)
These streets hold my deepest days
This hood taught me golden ways
Made me (truly this is what made me)
Break me (not a things gonna break me)
Oh, I’m that history, I’m that block
I’m that lifestyle, I’m that spot
I’m that kid by the number spot
That’s my past that made me hot
Here’s my lifelong anthem
Can’t forget about you (Can’t forget about you)

[Verse Three]

Unforgettable, UnSubmittable I go by N now, just one syllable
It’s the N cuz' the game tied is the same vibe
Good times had right after James died
That’s why the gangsta rhymers ain’t inspired
Heinous crimes help records sells more than creative lines
And I don’t want to keep bringing up the greater times
But I’m dreamer nostalgic with the state of mind
The past the past, enough of it aight then
Nothing gives me chills like Douglas and Tyson
Or Mike when his talk was live
Or when he first did the moon walk on Motown's 25

When was the last time you heard real anthem?
Nas, the millionaire, the mansion
When was the last time you heard your boy Nas rhyme?
Never on schedule, but always on time.

These streets hold my deepest days
This hood taught me golden ways
Made me (truly this is what made me)
Break me (not a things gonna break me)
These streets hold my deepest days
This hood taught me golden ways
Made me (truly this is what made me)
Break me (not a things gonna break me)

That's why darling it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I'm unforgettable too
