KPOP boy band member turn international solo artist, Jay Park, has just posted up the music video for his latest English single – “Demon”. The dance-heavy track features some impressive choreography and a decently catchy tune though I found the visuals to be a just a tad underwhelming. The song is the result of his previously announced collaboration with veteran producer Teddy Riley. Glad the song finally saw the light of day and that it plays to Jay’s strengths.

The Youtube Top 40 Rap Remix Round-Up – 8/7/11
Another day, another endless batch of Youtube covers and remixes. Today’s theme is Top 40 Rap which of course includes remixes of the biggest names of late including Fab, Bad Meets Evil, Drake, Jay, Kanye and more. There are a few surprises in store including crooner Paul Kim showing his versatility by opting to spit a few bars, a conceptual remix by Triangle Offense and their ode to the Dark Knight, possibly the hungriest verses I’ve heard yet from the OnFire Ent crew, and that’s just to name a few. Check em all out below.

New Jay Park Cover Video & Dance Footage
The one and only Jay Park has a new video up where he further dives into the Hip-Hop world, rapping over and remixing Chris Brown’s “Look at Me Now” and “Deuces”. In general, Jay’s rapping skills seemed to be improving with every drop, that is until this one. To this humble blogger, his delivery felt more forced and sloppier than this last couple drops. His double-time needs just a little more refinement in the lab. But for the all the Jay Park fans out there (and I know there’s a lot of you), I’m sure you’ll think I’m an idiot and will love this video. As a bonus you can catch some pretty nice footage of him doing his thing on the dance floor.
Critic’s Corner: Decipher – The Effect
It’s been years since we’ve seen a full-length LP from Philadelphia rapper Decipher. Sure, we’ve seen a couple mixtapes from him along with a plethora of feature spots on other artists’ songs but those aren’t enough to truly gauge how an artist has evolved over time compared to an actual, conceptualized album. But this changed at the top of 2011, when Decipher dropped his long awaited return, The Effect. The MUzO artist did a good job of building anticipation for the album, but does it live up to the hype? We’re gonna find out.
Jay Park Interviews w/ Complex Mag
I gotta admit. I did not really see this one coming. But I guess when you’re an international Pop sensation word gets around huh? The wildly famous Jay Park has a new interview out with Complex Magazine. It’s a really great read where Jay speaks pretty candidly on a number of topics including past, current, and future projects and all the surround experiences that go with it. This is probably the most informative single source of trusted information on Jay at the moment. You can check it in full either after the break or at Complex Mag.
Jay Park Releases a “6’7′” Remix
Someone enlisted Jay into a crash course for rap because he continues to show significant improvement with every drop. His flow is more polished than ever and his punches have gone from mostly slightly corny to mostly pretty decent. This is also the most uncensored we’ve ever heard him, in stark contrast to his clean boy-band days from just a year or so ago. If he keeps up this rate, he’s gonna be a rap heavyweight soon enough.
J. Reyez x Jay Park Release “Maybe One Day” [Free DL]
Here’s a new drop from Canada’s J. Reyez and Seattle’s Jay Park. It’s a more standard Hip-Hop track that I’m sure all the Jay fans will gobble up. So how does the J & Jay team-up work out? Actually, they seem to complement each other well. J’s verses were decent and Jay continues to improve with each drop. Are they two of the nicest lyricists out there? No but they did their thing on this track. Actually my only real complaint was the beat. I thought it was a fairly generic choice. But nevermind me, go ahead and DL the track for free here.
Decipher Releases The Effect Album

2 Free Songs From Dumbfoundead & Jay Park
I feel like everyone is in a giving and wonderful mood when it comes around the holidays! Even though, Dumbfoundead is in Korea, he still thinks about his fans on YouTube by giving out 2 free songs for the holidays. Do you guys remember the song “Clouds” with Jay Park and Clara Chung well they remixed the song and I have to say it sounds okay. Personally I like the original better because I find the instrumentals to the song is a better fit. Don’t get me wrong because the instrumentals sound nice but it’s too upbeat for the song. The other song he gave out for free is called “Hey There”(Make You Proud) by Diji Parq ft. Dumbfoundead. I’d have to say this song is something I would jam too in my car. The song gets you in a happy mood, I think it has to deal with the beat to the song. If you’d like to download the songs, just click the free download link here.
Decipher x J. Reyez x DFD x Flowsik x Chan x Johnnyphlo x Jay Park x Ailee Release “Catch Me If You Can” Remix
As promised, the awe-inspiring line up of artists contributed to the remix track has finally been released! Ailee’s amazing introduction really launches you into the track as all emcees’ verses flow right along. It’s a great listen and also makes you want to put the song on repeat. The track is too hot not to snatch up as it’s listed as a free download here.
