You should know....

Lupe by now! Waslu is his given but his stage is Lupe Fiasco and I'm openly stanning for him! My Hollywood hubby has two albums under his belt and one more to go. After his third and final album, titled "LupeND", he will retire from rapping and live his life. Well ain't that some shit for my ass? Just when I find his ass, I learn that he going to retire! At least leave some money on the night stand and lock the door when you leave. As I've just told you a few lines up, he has two albums under his belt, "Food & Liquor" and "The Cool". "The Cool" is the latest of the two and more mainstream in my book. Although there are more songs that I go str8 to after listening to the spoken word, "Food & Liquor" is the better album. I could type for days about this underdog, I don't have the time nor do you so I'll spare you this time.

My fav song throughtout his career is "American Terrorist" hands down.

Tree Monkey damn near gold at the starting gate!

WHY?!?! If you don't get it by now, Lil Wayne ,or as Superhead (I call her that simply because she prefers that name vs her own, but that's another post for another day) and myself call him, damn near went gold on the day his album dropped. I've read on Bossip that it wasn't as hot as the monkey claims to be. I don't know because I don't care for his songs let alone his albums. I take that back, I'm loving the remix to "Lollipop". Then again, I only like and listen to Kanye's lines. And before Simply Dope posted that there 20 artists that have made their own remix to "A Millie". I can't deny that the monk's hot. But that's all the space I'm giving on this blog to the Monkey Man today.

Bow Wow is callin us out!

Let me pause "Shine" (Estelle for the nonknowing) to make a good post about this lost puppy...! Ms.Kimba412 posted this video early this morning on The Urban Blogger and I had to snatch it and post here! Where to begin?! First off, Ms. Kimba made a good point that I realized while watching Bow Bitch giving it to us: he isn't talking about " the people, but the hater not the people"! WTF?! Please don't attempt to copy Lupe Fiasco. For those who don't know, on his latest album "The Cool", he brought the streets, the game and the cool to life by making them characters and letting us know what they might look like. Bow baby, your not that gifted. This video was nothing more than an attempt for us in cyber world to talk about his "weak lookin ass, slow lookin ass". I refuse to give this pup anymore of my time but you can! Just leave it in the comment section!

Buss out the Bi-sexual bridal hats + streamers!

I had to say it! Eli just gave the world so much material in that one little rap battle![scroll down to the post by Khan Artist] But anyway, many of my fellow bloggers are posting that Jenny's new ho and her secret lover are to wed later this year. Finally! She's going to live in U-N-I-T-Y! She can get her cornrolls back and live out her Cleo fantasy for real! There isn't anything that I can post that you already don't know or guess on your own. I personally think that the Queen and her girlfriend will be happy as long as the Queen keeps making commericals for Jenny and singing in musicals. Congrats! [flick via mediaoutrage]

Don't sleep on her

A lot of people (mainly other bloggers) think that Christina Millian is just some pretty girl who is somehow mistaken for a real artist. I'm here to openly defend her! Her last album, "So Amazin' (pic via myspace) was shockingly amazing. I won't lie, I've never listened to any of her other albums and I bought "So Amazin" on a whim after I had heard "Gonna tell everybody" once and needed another hit. The album had a handful of other hits buried away under media attention on her relationship drama and being dropped from her label. "Gonna tell everybody", "Who's gonna ride?", "Foolin" and "Ya'll ain't nothing" are the songs that this fashion forward woman bared her tiny soul and I feel her pain, for my own personal reasons. Because she was so open when they were written, a true artist was on showcase. Those unheard tracks have just won her a fan but "Foolin" and "Gonna tell everybody" got her a stan. With those two songs, you get a inside glimpse to the reason behind her and Nick's demise. In summary, she's beyond pretty with a body I would kill for but please don't stamp her as a non talent pop tart, the girl's got skillz!

Yeah I know I didn't post "Who's gonna ride" but you can google it yourself my sheep!

Estelle's new video + review

I been speeding through the fast lane trying to finally get a glimpse at Estelle's new video and I'll be damned if that wasn't a waste of $4 a gallon gas! Let me give the postive first, I am loving the Amanda Diva and the always fierce Christan cameos! I could have done without the Kelly Rowland glimpse however. Kelly's acting skills don't go beyond music videos. Was that mean? If you think it was, think back to the "Seat Filler" movie full of D-listed celebs (can we call them that?) where Kelly played dress up and lived out her career as if she were Mrs.Carter (beyonce'for the nonknowing).I found this movie on the 3 for $5 rack at Wal-Mart and needed a third movie so...! I pop in the DVD when I need a nap. Just so you know, I like to sleep with the tv on during the daytime, so the DVD serves a great purpose in my DVD collection. Let me get off Beyonce's background and back to Estelle....to sum up my thoughts: the video has a Beyonce-Rhianna look/feel and the song is very Lauryn Hill and those artist don't mix. E, go to your room and re-do this! And don't come out to you get it right because I have to give it two thumbs down love.....
