Taking a bit of time away from hip hop news, id like to focus on Fox News. They represent an extreme threat to a democracy with their inaccurate and extremly biased media tactics. Here's a video that sheds light on them, as well as smaller clips that show how they misrepresnent everything. Educate yourselves...


And one that is relevant to bloggers:
Watch "OutFoxed-Rupert Murdoch's war on Journalism"

Check out Foxattacks.com and Outfoxed.org

That's how you gotta do them tho...

This woman poured boiling hot water on her cheating husbands jewels. BRAVA!! People tend to only learn by pain, and while their relationship is probably over at least he will never cheat on her ass again!! LOL



Now you know, he is still beating some other chicks down. Please. And women, we all know we be wanting to pour some hot shit on these guy's crotches, shit even chop that shit off sometimes. Here's a lesson: DONT CHEAT!!!

BET's version of "Platinum Weddings"?? LOL

Its hard to muster the words that can explain my initial reaction to this. I lie, it was on of complete laughter with a touch of shock. I know not all weddings can be fancy, expensive affairs but goddamn must you look like you at a cookout with your spray painted tees, jeans and wedding dress?!?! This is just too ghetto but I guess that we should commend them on getting married when most of our people don't. Peep le madness beelow...







Well, they are bringing cultures together, saw the "just like mami" on baby girl's dress?? Its not just ghetto speak, its actually Spanish. We could learn a lot about race relations from this lovely couple... :-)

oh and thanks to my boo Massy for this ;-)

Zoe Kravitz on ABC!

Im a fan of Zoe Kravitz, she's very pretty, enjoys taking risks fashion wise and she has aspirations to be more than an "IT girl". Here's an interview she did on ABC Morning News or whatever its called. Check it out, pretty insightful.


White people can Bollywood too!!

I've seen this on a couple of blogs the past week but I never watched it until today, and I love it!! This is a great example of how someone can make the sometimes daunting task of marriage a fun, rememberable event without resorting to the extremes of say a Platinum Wedding event. In this recession, we cant afford ice sculptures and doves, BUT a .99 cent download of a song on Itunes is something we can. And if you're wedding party is white enough, their offbeat and wack dancing can become a YouTube hit!! Peep it beeloowww


Cute!!

Such a shame...

There honestly isnt enough coverage of racism in this country. Yes, we see it sometimes but its usually passed over or taken lightly. Its not a subject that should be taken lightly at all, and its a shame that although we have a black president people still think the same. Heres a video of a standoff between Black Panthers and white supremacists after 2 white men were cleared of charges stemming from the murder of a black man. While I dont support either side since bot are racist I will use this video to show a problem our country is still facing...

People disgust me.

Spotlight: Holly Sigmon

I am a big fan of art, and while I post mostly on entertaintment there's ALWAYS room for art in my life. This post features a co-worker of mine with extra-ordinary talent who goes by Holly Sigmon (well its her name) based in Brooklyn, New York but raised in good old Detroit, Michigan. Her art is really great, I am always jealous of people with creative skills. Her paintings show people in an amazing light and I find the ones that feature women to be extremely beautiful. They also have great use of color to them, and I like color. Before I embarrass myself even more trying to sound like I have any knowledge in the art arena besides being able to say "oh pretty" Ill let you see for yourself. :-)

Random train ride thoughts...

As I've mentioned before I do some of my best thinking while riding the MTA, and today was no exception. As I rode home from work at around 11 o'clock, so into my music, this homeless looking man shuffles to the seats in front of me. He has multiple bags, an overgrown beard and I notice that his head is incredibly bent. He's obviously had a rough life. As I try to hide my staring, I begin to wonder if his head is bent because of medical reasons or if for so long he's held his head down in shame that his neck has taken on that angle. I watched in sadness at this man, a man who at one point (and still may) have goals and dreams that have yet to be fulfilled, who everyday is prone to stares and disappointing looks from people who will probably never be in his situation. So to the man with the bent head, sorry that I've stared at you for the entire train ride without knowing anything about you except that your head may be permanently bent at a 90 degree angle thanks to people like me...

Event: NAACP Youth Centenial celebreation!!

Last night I went to an event hosted by the NAACP which one of my friends, D-Ferg, was showing his amazing art at. It was a really cool event celebrating the NAACP centennial but also giving young people of color a chance to show their creativity and skills. UNFORTUNATELY my mom decided to take my camera home after taking pics for my little brothers birthday so I was unable to take pics of my own. I'm so bummed about that!! However, I did have people take pics for me and hopefully they will send them. Ill have to update!!


The Hosts were Jerome Lamaar of Baby Phat fame and Briana Bighan who was on BET's show "Harlem Heights" and the fashion show consisted of young designers of color. The pictures can really tell more than words, but the art that was displayed my D-Ferg, Jay West and L.A.R.E.B.E.L of Broken (aka L.A) was inspiring and a great way to show that not all young black men show their creative side through rap, art is a BIG part of our culture as well. All around it was a cool event celebrating black youth who are sometimes overlooked.

I had a hard time finding a title to go with this video. To put it bluntly (as WorldStar HipHip did so well) its a gay amputee singing Mariah Carey's "Obsessed". Now, they say you shouldn't laugh at those with "special" problems but I'm sure he just wants to be treated like every other tone-def gay man...so go ahead and laugh!! Its the human thing to do...enjoy!!


He has really good upper arm strength...but cmon man if you're gonna sing KNOW the words!!
