Fabolous is quite the ladies man. The Brooklyn MC is destined for love in “Ready,” the Chris Brown-assisted single off his forthcoming Loso’s Way 2: Rise to Power LP. The cinematic visual takes us to the Dominican Republic, as Loso stumbles upon unexpected companionship in co-star Violeta Castillo. In classic “Cinderella” fashion, Fab sweeps her off her feet by wining and dining along the beachside, before eventually taking his new love interest back home. Available on iTunes now, “Ready” will appear on Fabolous’ sixth studio album due later this year via Def Jam Records.

A prime example is their Arturo Fuente Rosado Sungrown Magnum R series (the R stands for Rosado, a deep reddish brown spicy wrapper leaf), which was introduced a few years ago. [Read More]

The Miami Dolphins Cheerleaders shot their 2013 Swimsuit Calendar in the beautiful Dominican Republic and they decided to have a little fun. Have we mentioned how much we love the Internet lately?
