Your GRAND Exit



2008 could possibly prove to be one of the best years thus far!
And usually people have these lavish resolutions and then never fulfill them, but I'm hoping to break that trend and really follow thru with mine.

In 2008 I will simply continue to grow and mature into my own person.
I will laugh too much. I will try not to cry. I will love.
I wont hesitate to say what's on my mind.
I will learn to be more mindful of other's feelings.
I will make mistakes. I will learn from my mistakes.
I will be happy.

Although 2008 is gladly accepted, I will miss what 2007 brought me!
- Gym Class Heroes concerts wit Matty and Doodle
- 5 Hours, highway, mountains and a speeding ticket wit Doodle
- Sadly missing Ambler
- SPANOOTI

- my god-daughter Timerra
- countless hours of MAC lovin' in the TECH
- drunken fights
- the Berry's and Creme commercial



- C Mac

and even tho 2007 brought good times, it also brought tears

- the death of a good friend
R.I.P Derrick Taylor

- an ended friendship

All in all...
Thank you 2007 for all that you've given and taken away.

New Musak!

http://theybf.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/tiffany-evans-2.jpg

new music from Tiffany Evans ft. Bow Wow
"I'm Grown"
LISTEN OR DOWNLOAD

HERE

I've been such a Tiffany Evans fan
I think I played "Promise Ring" about 27 times in my iTunes
I really like her. She's young, fresh and new.
And she's not all homely like Keke Palmer (even tho I love her more as an actress)
I will def be supporting that young, fab chick.
Downloading is NOT an option, I will be buying her album


http://a236.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/35/l_acdbb28b5ed3ecbd8a6a65270774dce3.jpg

Teyana Taylor
"Google Me Baby"
LISTEN OR DOWNLOAD

HERE

I'm really feeling this song. I was anxious to see what she was gonna come out with. I am still a little worried as to why Jazzie Phe always has to have his damn voice on something.
Why can't producers just shut the fuck up!?!
But nonetheless, I would cop her album based on that single.
UPGRADE

NEW VIDEOS

NeYo - "Go On Girl"


I'll let you comment on this travesty.
I'm too pissed off to even think about what the fuck just happened.
That song coulda had such a better video.. he coulda done so much.
Song reminds me of "Irreplaceable" tho....
Anywoo, in the words of the late Rick James
(by way of Dave Chapelle)
"I give those tittays two thumbs DOWN"

Ciara - "That's Right"


And I say, how many singles does that make??
Really, CiCi... you didn't want to stop after "Promise"??
I mean, that vid with Fif went NO WHERE.
And when I began watching this, I could swear to God that she did nothing but change the music to the "Goodies" video. I mean, wasn't she riding out of the back of a car in that one too??
And Monica, dont let me get started on the ATL mess that is going on with her!
I'm utterly disturbed by everything that went on in that video.
And by the ugly chick that was in the back seat!

****

MORE BULLSHIT



No this nigga didn't mention, Jay? Did he just ask for R-E-S-P-E-C-T??
I think we've already discussed this respect thing.
Ummm, have they forgotten that they gets NO respect.
Who gives a shit about their fuckin attitudes??
They think their men!

Let me give you my utmost opinion on their album.....
[clears throat]
I wouldn't buy a bootleg of that album even if it had a fucking million dollar golden ticket in it! I'm sooo glad that I illegally downloaded that POS, because if I woulda gave my hard earned money to an establishment and they woulda handed me that bullshit..... I would slit my writs with a plastic spoon.
I think they should start a clothing line, like every other fucking rapper, and just do that!
Just sell clothes and get a sneaker line.
Give rapping a break for a while.

Merry effin Christmas!

Have You Seen Her??

http://www.tvguide.com/movies/dbpix/images/39575a.jpg

Ok so. Let me explain how jealous I am of this chicks beauty!
[pauses for a lil hater-ation]
When I first saw her in Eve's Bayou, I wasn't really feeling the red hair
thing she had going on. And on-screen next to Megan Good
just made me forget her name.
But I be damned if aint just get a smack in the face.
By this.....


When I saw this, my mouth hit the floor.
Now normally I would hate on the light-skinned chick just because
but honestly, I'm glad that she is looking fab these days
cuz Roll Bounce, wit dem braces - need I say more??
Go on girl!
This one's for you....

'Ye & Daft Punk - SPIN Mag Jan '08



If you dont know who Daft Punk is, just kill yourself now
you'll feel a lot better.
Daft Punk has to be one of the greatest Techo bad I've heard, thus far
and besides the fact that now Hip Hop artist are tagging along for the ride
I am still in pure bliss.

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR HIP HOP LATELY??

Damn Shame - smh


Ya girl Fantasia has missed 50 shows for The Color Purple on Broadway
So dont even bother getting a ticket.
Sources say this after she was outside singing to the crowd
during the writers strike,
"There's no show, and she's out there singing. Now if we could get her to perform when there is a show, we'd be in business."

As I was walking home today
I turned on the I'm So Hood remix and just let it play
over and over again. For some reason I have really fell in love with this track.
Now, I'm not a big fan of DJ Khaled cuz his songs usually feature
a shitload of MCs and he's always screaming about something,
but the flow is just sick.
The words just make the hair on the back of my neck stand up.

I'm a huge Ludacris fan, just because he spits some retarded shit over sick beats.
"See this is the way that we ball
And this is the way we roll
So put a fist in the air if you care
United we stand and divided we fall"

And Busta Bust is just ig'nant wit his rhymes.
"I’m used to leaving the strip last
Hustling until the sun comes up getting cash
So much bread in all of my four pockets
It looks like a nigga got hips with an ass"

And of course, Big Boi just sprinkles his freshness on the track.
"They try to dance with a devil in the pale moonlight
Advance on the level that they can’t do right
Lay hands on a fellow like the man in blue lights"

I'm not a fan of Fat Joe, however he had a line that was just crazy to me.
"You's a crack baby that means your momma paid me
You can’t even blame me that’s what the hood made me"

In my opinion, wasn't Weezy's or Baby's best joint. Eh

I'm So Hood

The Great Debaters - premiere

Denzel's fineness is timeless! As he ages he just gets better and better.

J Hud was there, fabulosity in tow

The beauty that this woman possess, I wish MAC sold in a bottle

Remember her???
Gridiron Gang... Roll Bounce... Eve's Bayou
Yea, she's 21 and FABULOUS

Now as much as I love Kimberly Elise, she needed a friend to inform her of her makeup mishap. Someone needed to tell her makeup artist that foundation, aint supposed to look like foundation. I'm sorry, but I love the girl this just aint a good look for her.
DOWNGRADE!
Back to the drawing board.

The Flyness That Is...

Jada Pinkett-Smith




I dont care what nobody say about her and Will's love life!
She is one bad bitch and he is one lucky man.
No matter how old this woman gets, she is still the flyest thing on the red carpet.
Swear to God... chick is bad!
And I'd be damned if they dont make some pretty ass kids.
Jaden & Willow are so cuuttee.
Ladies take note, Jada is the original boss bitch!
[end note]
Might I also add that, that green dress is something fierce[1]!
