Soul Train Awards 2010 proved to be a magical night. From the Legendary tributes to both Anita Baker and Ron Isley to Doug E. Fresh teaching CNN’s Wolf Blitzer how to Dougie, the show was jam packed full of suprises and amazing performances.

If you were lucky enough to attend the show’s taping in Atlanta, you probably were wondering what happened to some of the greatest moments…including performances from Tank, Eric Benet and Gyptian. Well we have read your tweets—and those of Eric Benet and Tank (why so harsh?)—and we have them exclusively here on the CentricTV.com/soultrainawards.

Last week Essence.com released behind the scenes footage of Tank’s new video “Emergency,” now they are back with the premiere. Have you ever experienced the possibility of losing a love for good?  Watch the video to find out if Tank loses his girl or if she makes it out of this “Emergency.”



Essence.com takes us behind the scenes of Tank’s new video for the second single, “Emergency” off his new album, Now Or Never hitting stores December 14th. This video seems like it’s going to be intense. Check it out:

Known for his arsenal of slow jams—”Maybe I Deserve”, “Please Don’t Go” and his latest hit “Sex Music”—it seems like we have never gotten an upbeat offering from Tank. But it looks like that has all changed. The singer/songwriter/producer, who will be hitting the Soul Train Awards 2010 stage, has released “Know About Me,” a two step inciting track produced by the Hit Boys. No word if the tune is off his upcoming forth album, Now or Never—out December 14th. Check out the new track and SOUND OFF below.

If giving birth to a baby boy wasn’t enough, Alicia Keys is leading the Soul train Awards nominations pack—alongside Usher—with four nods. Rapper/Singer Drake follows behind closely with three nominations.
