Nick Jonas is playing approximately no games with the promotion of his new single, ‘Find You.’

Released just last Thursday to digital and streaming outlets, the singer/songwriter is already hot on the promo trail in its support.   Just hours after premiering the song’s official accompanying music video on his official VEVO channel, the Jonas Brothers alum took to ‘Ellen’ to deliver its first televised performance.

It’s an all-star affair on today’s From The Vault pick. We are back this week with one of the Notorious B.I.G.’s biggest posthumous moment. ‘Nasty Girl.’

With 2005’s ‘Duets: The Final Chapter’, the late rapper proved that even in the afterlife, he could still get the clubs moving – worldwide.

Produced by Jazze Pha, ‘Girl’ featured Diddy, Jagged Edge, Nelly and Avery Storm. Biggie’s verse was lifted from ‘Nasty Boy,’ a track from his ‘Life After Death’ LP.

A moderate success in the US, where it peaked at #43, the cut earned the rapper his very first #1 in the UK – a year after rival – late Tupac – achieved his first chart-topper with the Elton John-assisted ‘Ghetto Gospel.’

The guestlist got even bigger for the track’s video: Pharrell Williams, Usher, Teairra Mari, Fat Joe, Christina Milian and Naomi Campbell joined the featured acts in the Sanaa Hamri visual.

Party atmosphere, celebrity cameos, video vixens all around, this essentially served as 2000’s version of his very own ‘One More Chance.’

We’re welcoming of posthumous releases that aren’t all mournful and depressing, but instead upbeat and fun. It seems to us like the perfect way to keep an act’s legacy alive.

With so many top artists passing in the past decade, it’d be awesome to see their art celebrated in a colorful way as Biggie’s was in this releases. Michael Jackson’s ‘Xscape’ was definitely a step in the right direction; here’s hoping the likes of Amy Winehouse and Whitney Houston’s estates follow suit.

As for Biggie Smalls, he remains one of the most cherished gems of Hip-Hop culture and it’s safe to say that shine is never going away.

Your thoughts?

Almost a year from the date Madonna fans threw ‘Papa Don’t Preach’ plagiarism claims at ‘Perfect Illusion’ – the first single from Lady Gaga‘s chart-topping last album, ‘Joanne’ – Little Monsters are doing the same to Nick Jonas thanks to his new single, ‘Find You.’

Unveiled in full September 15, the tune – the second release from his yet-titled follow-up to 2016’s ‘Last Year Was Complicated’ – has already shot to the top 20 of iTunes ahead of its video release.   Yet, while his fans are praising the cut for its stripped, guitar driven instrumentation, some (namely Gaga fans) are saying its chord progressions sound a little too familiar.

Did Nick take a page out of the songstress’s playbook or is it just a coincidence?  Listen to the two inside and tell us your thoughts:

After a week of teasing, Nick Jonas has finally dropped ‘Find You’ – the second single from the yet-titled follow-up LP to 2016’s ‘Last Year Was Complicated.’

Produced by Jack & Coke, the country-influenced cut – with its hints of ‘House’ and ‘pop’ –  sees Jonas tread on familiar sonic ground.  If its tread on the Billboard Hot 100 will be likened to that of its predecessors is yet to be seen, but what we can say for certainty at this juncture is that the song is a bop.
