One of my FAVORITE comments on Vibe.com regarding the Lil Wayne situtaion was from reader Daniel Warhol. “Daniel Warhol says: MANNNNNN…..if you are gonna go to JAIL..GO TO JAIL! Not JAIL LITE…N*gga did the crime like a non-celebrity, he should be treated as such…F*ck that special request BULLSHIT.” LOL @ “Jail Lite“.  And you know [...]

Grammy’s: Taylor Swift Album of the Year….Really??

February 1st, 2010

I watched the Grammys last night and as much as I loved the show, when did they start being performance based and not awards based?  I LOVE seeing the performances but there were only a few categories that actually received awards on stage.  The rest of the evening was filled with performances, some of them [...]

Slow Jam Sundays: John Mayer – I Don’t Trust Myself With Loving You…

November 29th, 2009

Ahhh John Mayer, I have heard strong opinions of him.  Either you love him or hate him. Most of the latter stems from his dalliances with women but he is a musician…isn’t he allowed?  What other musicians have you known that were the marrying type??  Name one… exactly.  He is a musician and a damn [...]

November 23rd, 2009

Couple of things…..I LOVE awards shows of any kind so I save them on the DVR so I can go back through and look.  For the best rundown ever go see my buddy Ricky at Bark + Bite. Here is my Rundown… Janet Jackson:  I love Janet but she looked like she got tired halfway [...]

My oh my oh my…I do love this song. There is something about Aaliyah’s voice…she was so sweet and most definitely talented. It truly is a shame that her life was cut short just as she was beginning to soar as a performer. This song has so much old school influence (my mother LOVES this [...]

Lady Gaga The New Queen of Pop…

Remember when Madonna kissed Britney??  That moment was to symbolize Madonna passing the “pop icon” torch to her and you know what?  She screwed it up.  Britney was poised to take over that throne and while she was busy having a nervous breakdown, someone else came up and STOLE it.  That’s right Lady Gaga…classically trained [...]

Slow Jam Sundays: Raheem DeVaughn – Ask Yourself…

November 8th, 2009

Wooooo! Another beautiful voice that reminds me of one from the past. Raheem DeVaughn is a self proclaimed “R&B hippie neo-soul rock star” but to me….his voice sounds like smooth creamy melted chocolate.  His melodies are so very effortless….he slips in an out of falsetto forcing comparisons to D’Angelo (I miss him…) and Donny Hathaway [...]

Slow Jam Sundays: Jodeci – “Stay”…

November 1st, 2009

Ahhh Jodeci….the quintessential thug boy band that could blow.  Something about their voices (K-Ci sounds SO MUCH like Bobby Womack to me) and their strange thugged out look (so 90′s…SO Puffy) And even though all of them (especially K-Ci) looked like crackheads that weighed approximately 85 pounds soaking wet, we still LOVED their music. I [...]

Slow Jam Sundays: Marsha Ambrosius of Floetry “Say Yes”…

0
October 25th, 2009

Okay, this is by far one of my most favorite groups and they of course have gone their separate ways.  The combo of Marsha’s jazzy vocals with Natalie’s hip hop inspired raps were genius…but obviously too confining for the duo.  Natalie Stewart left the group not soon after their second release with no real explanation. [...]

No Excuses Kanye…

September 24th, 2009

Here we go again….another wounded celebrity blaming their “pain” on why they acted inappropriately.  Spare me Kanye.  It is my opinion that if you are ever lucky enough to be in a position where you are famous enough that people care about what you do on a daily basis…it is your responsibility to set an [...]
