Video of the Day



This is absolutely hilarious. In all seriousness though in a time of such turmoil I think that a laugh every now and then is a good incentive to lift up your spirits and go out into the world with smile and a positive attitude. As B.Scott says "Get into this love muffins!", I'm serious. stop playing.

Back In the Day...

From Monica's debut album "Miss Thang" released in 1995, almost 13 years ago. Damn, im old.

Monica
Don't Take It Personal (Live)


This one goes out to all the sistas out there going through it today from the boys at the plantation. Keep strong people.

Nobody is right...


So I guess Nicole is still working on her debut album "Her Name Is Nicole". Aside from the fact that I wasn't really feeling the few songs that she churned from her album I do think that this song is really good. You be the judge.

Nicole Scherzinger- Who's Gonna Love You

New Releases



Who's album will you buy?










Personally after listening to both Janet and Erykah's album's respectively I have to say that I am impressed with both. But to compare the two in terms of content, Erykah takes the cake. Listening from Erykah's first album "Baduizm" and her last few efforts I feel like she really has grown as an artist while still keeping it funky with the listener.Janet's album however does offer up some good tracks, like "Rollercoaster", "So Much Betta" and the leading Rodney Jerkins track "Feedback"; I still think that Janet could change it up alot more, but overall the album is a solid effort that stays consistent enough for you not to fall asleep.

Mariah Carey- Touch My Body



What can you say, I feel like the video is really cheesy but at the same time funny,classic Mariah. Either way E=MC² comes out April 15th.

More Jill Scott...

Whenever You're Around



What can I say, I love the woman to smithereens. IM NOT CRAZY! lol.

The Real Thing





Make sure to go pick up her Grammy award nominated album "The Real Things: Words & Sounds Volume 3". I'm serious, go buy it. stop playing.


New Music from Day26




Okay, so I dont want to sound like I'm hating (I say that alot, don't I?) but Im really just not feeling anyof the music that these guys are putting together, and its a shame because I like them all as a group, especially Quanell and Mike but i just dont think that they mesh well on any of the songs that I've heard from them, I do like "Got Me Going" though. You be the Judge.

Day26- Come In

Day26- Got Me Going

Day26- Together

Jill Scott does the Butterfly!




The beautiful, talented, amazing, soul songstress (I could go on and on...no seriously. stop playing.) Jill Scott has teamed up with Ashley Stewart to create an all new ultra supportive bra for big girls. BTW congrats to Jill for her third Grammy win a few weeks ago. Support this woman people, no seriously. stop playing. Also check out her at BET Honors performance which aired last week on where she honored Dr. Cornel West and her interview with Perez Hilton last week. SUPPORT THIS WOMAN!!!! (She also serves as the inspiration for the name of the blog, expect many posts on her)

The Butterfly



Diva's Special

GIVE DISCIPLINE!

"Feedback"



"That's The Way Love Goes"




Today sees the release of Janet Jackson's tenth studio album, and with that Ms. Jackson went on a media blitz starting with a performance on "Good Morning America". With that said, after all these damn years why, lord why is Janet still lip-syncing . I mean the performances were great, dont get me wrong, I LOVE JANET! but come on girl, you know better. Maybe I shouldn't be acting all surprised like I didn't already know how the performance was gonna go. Either way get it Janet!

Jay-Z



Check out Jay-Z's new video "I Know" off of his latest album "American Gangster". The video features Zoe Kravitz. Get 'em Jay!

What do you know 'bout Janelle MonĂ¡e?



Though her debut album "Metropolis Suite I of IV: The Chase" came out months ago, I felt compelled to do a post on her because her talent is SO huge. In a recent artist spotlight Janelle was named one of the up and coming artists of '08. The Singer, who first appeared on Outkast's "Purple Ribbon All-Star's Compilation Got Purp? Volume 2" and the soundtrack for "Idlewild" plans to re release Suite I of Metropolis with Suite II later this year under her new label, Bad Boy. I really hope this works out for her because her music is the most original that I've had the pleasure of listening to in years. Check her artist profile over at Art Nouveau magazine and check her myspace and official website

American Boy



Here's the video for the second single, "American Boy" feat. Kanye West off of British rap/singing star Estelle's sophomore album "Shine". She's doing big things check her website and myspace for updates.

Adios Mio!



I love this video, i got it from star of the cult dramedy "Noah's Arc" darryl stephens blog. Haha "silly bitch"

Its the Katie Holmesbot 2000!



Okay someone needs to unplug her before she goes any further. lol. But in all Suriousness something has been off about Katie Holmes since she got with Tom Cruise. check her interview with the Daily Mail

Video of the day

You know, I think Janet should do alot more acting becuase this shit is hilarious as hell. Go head Ms. Jackson, give discipline

The Oscars...


I didn't watch blah, blah, blah. I hate to come off sounding like a hater but I find it so ironic that both the 50th annual Grammy's and the 80th annual Oscars, which are milestones, both faired seemingly no public interest, at least in my circle anyway. Either way Black star power was out in full force check the pics at http://theybf.com

Donna J, the girl next door?



Is Donna J the girl next door? Barely, the eighteen year old model and college freshman from Brooklyn is the girl down the street with more to offer, (she also happens to be my best friend) check the pics.

NORBITCH!


According to blackvoices.com that car crash of a movie "Norbit" did a clean sweep of this years annual Razzie awards winning in like all of its categories, AMAZING. Donkey better get his ish together or Johnny Gill is gonna have to find himself a new pencil for that sharpener.

Speaking of Donkey and Gillz, JOhnny was just on the radio pulling a Pinocchio. If you care. Who am i kidding I know I'm like the only one who reads this stuff.
