Back in the Days

It feels strange to say that at age 21 but real talk I really miss a lot of things from back in the days. With the new year just around the corner and all that it has to offer for everyone, I just sat back and reminisced about mad shit. Now that I'm on break from school thats all I really do is sit around, think, listen to music, play video games or play basketball. I had some videos from my myspace blog I did a while back and it reminded me of how good television was. It was so much quality shows on. My parents was strict daddies too when I was young so I never really got to go outside unless I did all my homework, but TV was soo crack that I was hooked from the time I came home to about 7 pm and thats when I usually started my homework.

Nickelodeon had shit on smash with crack shows like: Keenan & Kel, SNICK, All That(1st cast), Are You Afraid of the Dark, Doug, Adventures of Pete & Pete, Legends of the Hidden Temple, My Brother and Me, Aaahh Real Monsters, Salute Your Shorts, Clarissa Explains it All, Wild and Crazy Kids, Double Dare, Rocko's Modern Life, Rugrats, and Cousin Skeeter. The list really can keep going [Ya remember Wayne Head???], but real talk that was all on one channel. When you built up enough strength to turn the channel you had The Power Rangers, Arthur, VR Trooper(was aight).

Then you had the sitcoms like:Martin, Jamie Foxx Show, The Fresh Prince, Wayne's Brothers, Sister Sister, Living Single, Hanging w/ Mr. Cooper, Moesha, Family Matters, Boy Meets World, Blossom, and NY Undercover. I know I'm missing some but forreal kids these days are real unfortunate that they dont have shows of this quality on TV. I really went in on the list too, I just stopped and smile a lil bit. Not taking anything from TV now a days but it will never be the same. I'm done.

Sidebar: I remember I was feening to be on Wild & Crazy Kids, I really felt like I would smash every kid on that show in anything. Omar Gooding and Keenan were 2 people I looked up to especially cuz I was chunky daddies as a kid.

Album Review: Intuition

Jamie Foxx know what he was doing putting this album together. I was really looking for more of Unpredictable but this album was definitely not that. He flooded the album with all the big names thats doing it big in 2008, from artist to producers. My hands down james brown tracks are: "Freak'in Me ft Marsha Ambrosius (from Floetry), "Blame It" ft T-Pain, "I Don't Know", "Weekend Lover", "Slow", "Overdose" and "Love Brings Change". I like that he got a share of club bangers "Blame It", "Number One", and "I Don't Know". Overall the album is very solid and its a very radio friendly album as well. Go out and cop it!!!


"Freak'in Me" ft Marsha Ambrosius


"Overdose"

Album Review: A Different Me


The album dropped on Dec 16th and in its first week of sales, she sold about 322,000, which makes her best first week sale. Keyshia Cole went out and got my boy Nas on the album, i was like Wow, i really couldn't see them colaborating but the track was aight "Oh-Oh, Yeah-Yeah". "Trust","You Complete Me", "Brand New"and "This is Us" are the best songs on the album hands down like 6:30!! I can really play them all day, i feel like Keyshia was singing to me on all of them. Monica did her thang on the "Trust" track. Some other favs on the album that you should check out is "Make Me Over",, "No Other", , and "Where This Love Could End Up". Overall the album is good music and its a good look by Keyshia because she dares to be different because on the first two albums you could really feel the pain that she was going through, but we all know with all the bumps and roadblocks that life throws at you, theres always light at the end of the tunnel. Pretty much this album is Keyshia's bringing us on the ride and showing us that she getting closer to that light.

Sidebar:"Play Ya Cards Right" is a nice track but it really weird that its 2008 and Tupac is still featuring on people tracks. LOL I know ya remember when they said he was alive and was living in Cuba. Ha Ha Ha!!!

What does Paris Hilton and Cam'Ron have in Common?



The color pink and luxury cars! Im sure that was easy to answer. Paris is definitely taking a page out of Killa Cam book with this recent purchase. I'm not a fan of the color pink and i think this looks disgusting. Especially the rims, I mean come on she coulda kept the stocks on the whip. The interior is fierce. The stuff people with money do sometimes really makes me think sometimes. You tell me, is this HOT or is it a HOT MESS???

Maybe its me but i really dont think Anthony Hamilton gets the respect he deserves. I got his new album and its official like a referee with a whistle!! The Point of It All is Anthony Hamilton's six studio album and it was released on December 16th. My favorite track is "Her Heart", and some other favs on the album is Cool,The Day We Met,I Did It For Sho, Soul's on Fire, and She's Gone.

** I had to add "I Did It For Sho" below so ya can really hear the way he is so versatile.

A Fresh Face: Keri Hilson


I Can Definitely Recognize that Keri Hilson is a real woman(in my Jerome voice from Martin). She been putting her stamp on the game with her songwriting skills. Now she stepping from behind the scenes and stepping in the limelight with her voice. Her songwriting resume dates back to 2001. I'm really feeling her 3rd single that's killing the radio waves, "Turning Me On", and she got Lil Wayne on the track as well[which never hurts to as a feature]. She is also featured on the "Superhuman" track with Chris Brown(This is my f*ing song 2).Her album, "In a Perfect World" is set to release[February 9, 2009] so go out and cop it if you feeling her music. Here is Turning Me On video:

Artist to Look out For: Chester French

I'm a big fan of HBO's "Entourage" and the song on the closing credits are always the truth. When i heard Chester French's She Loves Everybody i was like Oh snap they about to make they splash on the scene. I heard about Chester French a while back on Myspace[2007 back when i was going hard on Myspace]. They are Harvard graduates who created their first album in their dorm's basement.[hold up when did dorms ever have basements, i should've applied to Harvard lol] They called it Love the Future. They are signed to Pharell's StarTrack label, and hopefully in 09 they get the opportunity to showcase their talents to the world. Here's a track called She Loves Everybody:

Artist to Look Out For: Outasight

Outasight is his name and i first heard about him over at concreteloop.com back in March. He hails from New York. Some of his influences are Mos Def,Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye and The Beetles. You can check out more of his music at his myspace page[myspace.com/iamoutasight]

The song that i heard from him is called "Good Evening" and I really couldn't stop listening to it.[I had it on repeat for like 10 straight plays.] He shot an official video for it so here it is:

Obama duriNg C0llege Years.

I found this beauitful black & white photo of Obama in People Magazine. The photo was taken in 1980, when Obama was freshman at Occidential College in Los Angeles. Lisa Jack, an aspiring photographer at the time recently spoke about the photo saying, "the future president – and Time's Person of the Year – can be seen in his youthful days in unguarded moments with hat and cigarette."

Will Smith on Oprah..Again. ♥

Newsweek Magazine has labeled him the most powerful actor on the planet. Barbara Walters recently chose him as one of 2008's Most Fascinating People. Oprah had the handsome Will Smith on her show yet again. His father, Will Sr. and son, Jaden were in the audience. He spoke about his personal life & was later joined by his co-star Rosario Dowson to speak about their film, Seven Pounds. When sharing his views and experience during the 2008 elections he said, "I gave everyone in my family video cameras to document their experiences...We filmed ourselves going down to the polls, my daughter went with us … and then at night we had a party, about 60 or 70 people."Oprah played a clip from an interview with Obama when he said that he would like for Will Smith to play him if they were to ever make a movie about him. Michelle Obama has even came out and said that Will Smith is her celebrity crush, I agree. lol. He went on to talk about his wife and the love that they share saying "I've never been happier in my life. I feel like my relationship with my wife has purpose...We're in love and that's fantastic, but beyond that, we have purpose." I loved this interview and felt like it allowed me to get a better look at who Will Smith is not only as an actor but a husband, father, & son.

Who not gonna miss this guy


I bet if dude had another chance he wouldn't miss President Bush again. This is the type of stuff that only can happen to George Bush. I want to know where is his secret service officers at, and how dude get the opportunity to reach down and grab his 2nd shoe and throw it at Bush. You got to love the fact that as dumb as George Bush may be he can definitely dodge some a pair of shoes. LOL The random idea(the hustler in me) that came to my mind, was if he would have hit the president how much could the shoe that hit George Bush in the face would go for on Ebay? I dont't know but let that have been my boy Barack, Barack woulda been like let him go and then he would boxed his ass just cuz Barack know Michelle would have clowned him as soon as he got home.

The RedStorm has ended


With a national championship berth on the line the fellas on St Johns Red Storm lost in double overtime to the Maryland Terrapins (yuck)! St Johns played hard but Maryland was more hungry. The Terp was on the attack the whole game and got off mad shots on goal. Shout out to Neal Kitson, the St Johns goal keeper, the senior was balling forreal, he really did all that he could to keep the season alive. He made nine saves and they were all great plays. The Red Storm played as if they just was trying to get to penalty kicks while the Terps was playing like they was trying to get out of there with the W. On a positive note the Red Storm had a great season, they finished the season at 19-3-3. Sidebar i really texted all the Maryland natives that go to St Johns with me, and told them to watch the game so they can see the Terps lose and my planned backfired LOL! Its all good tho my boys gonna come back next year and take the chip!

Loafers and Boat shoes Go Hard! They Go Hard

1. The style is really to wear loafers and boat shoes with no socks.
2. This style is not for everyone, you have to be confident to pull this off. You have to rock it with slim jeans or slacks. Baggy jeans just wont cut it.
3. You can rock it simple with jeans and a tee as well.
I found some of these pics over at marcustroy.com


I got to cop me a pair in the near future! Here's a couple thats appealing to the eye!!

Bow Ties are Back




"Dressing up and looking smart like a London bloke has become quite trendy these days. Wearing a Bow Tie instead of a traditional tie or an ascot has become the in thing amongst some. I’m sure you have been seeing a lot of your favorite artist pulling off this look, such has Common, Fabolous, Kanye and Q-tip just to name a few.
1. You can wear a bow tie with formal attire such as suits or dinner jackets.
2. The more tone down look is just to wear it with a shirt and a cardigan or a sweater over it. (my personal Favorite)
3. Some even wear bow tie’s with a short sleeve woven shirt. "
