VIDEOS & VISUALS: Fabolous
WHAT: Fabolous recently took to the Brooklyn Bridge for Vevo’s Go Show. It was a raw performance consisting of a boombox and a lot of cold air. A crowd of fans and onlookers enjoyed the live rendition of Loso’s “Y’all Don’t Hear Me Tho” from his last project The S.O.U.L. Tape. A native of the Brooklyn borrough, Fab admits he’s never even walked the bridge before. “I just wanted to do something that was different, even for me. Just showing the people that I’m from where you from.”

OLD & NEW: Lady GaGa and Patti LaBelle
WHAT: GaGa is making marks all over history! After being honored at the 2011 CFDA Awards as Fashion Icon, the “Born This Way” singer hit the after party at the Standard Hotel and boy was she in for a treat. Legendary soul singer Patti Labelle called the barely-clothed GaGa to the stage to perform “Over the Rainbow” with her. The crowd was estactic, probaby because of the nipple exposure.
