Is Lauryn Hill Toying With Our Emotions Again?
By this point everyone has posted this but anyway, I stumbled upon this song by Lauryn Hill called “Repercussions,” on The YBF. The folks over there say they were told that this was a demo and most likely won’t be a real song. It sounded beautiful and if it’s any indication that she’s seriously going […]

[Video] Nicki Minaj in ‘Your Love’
This is so much better than that “Massive Attack” disaster. Nicki Minaj – New Music – More Music Videos She looked really nice and I loved the Samurai theme.

Are You Really Shocked That American Apparel Doesn’t Like You?

If that’s the case, then be mad that American Apparel owner Dov Charney doesn’t like ugly people who wear bad shoes. People were up in […]
MTV’s First TJ?
I’m still hurt about the A. Key’s competition. I guess it wasn’t meant to be but it still feels like there was a glitch in the matrix–like I was supposed to get far. The fact is, I was robbed. Seeing some of the others’ work who advance compared to mine especially hurt. But it is […]
