Ciara DOES Vibe Mag

Hmmm..... I honestly am at a loss for words [syke]. I was really mad when Ciara did that video with 50 cent, but this.... I don't know. Its always the chicks that don't have any singing talent that always push the envelope and try to be looked at as sex symbols, not that I'm mad at that. Its just that the half of me thats an amature music critic is turning his nose up while the other half of me thats just a regular dude is turning domething else up lol. Now that I think about it, I would like to retract my comments about Vibe Mag being slightly racist. CLEARLY this is why Robin thicke didn't get the cover lol.

Wow.......

......but the album is good. The album is good.....

I Know I'm Suppose to be on Hiatus, But......

...can someone please explain to me why Common is at Serena's US Open practice???

Getting the Hell Out of Dodge!

Ladies and gents, I'm sad to announce that I will be on hiatus for the next couple of days [probably until monday]. Hurricane Hannah is projected to slam right into Savannah, and I DO NOT faux with water like that! This crap is crazy. First Gustav, now Hannah, and next is Ike and Joesephine. Thats FOUR freakin storms spinning in the same body of water at the same time! And one of them is named Ike! I got three words for that: OH HELL NAW! Y'all know Ike will beat a hoe! Peace out!

The Rumors are Flying!

Well, well, well! Looky, looky, looky! Over the course of this Labor Day weekend, the rumors have been flying when it comes to Senator McCain's choice in VP, Alaskan Governer Sarah Palin. First came the shocking announcement that Palin's seventeen year old daughter is five months pregnant. Sure, this happens to a lot of people, but in this particular case Palin has previously rejected sex education in schools in favor of teaching abstinence. Smph, its a really bad look when your teen daughter shows up prego! Also it was learned that Palin now has hired a private lawyer in a legislative ethics investigation in Alaska into whether she abused her power in dismissing the state’s public safety commissioner; that she was a member for two years in the 1990s of the Alaska Independence Party, which has at times sought a vote on whether the state should secede; and that Mr. Palin was arrested 22 years ago on a drunken-driving charge. But thats not all; it has been said by various sources in the McCain camp that Palin was a "rushed pick". Hours before McCain named her as his choice for VP he was still holding out for a yes from Joe Lieberman and Tom Ridge. Well, if this ain't bettter than TV! I guess we all shall have to wait and see how all of this info plays out during the remainder of the week.

Vibe Mag, Racist?

In a recent interview with Billboard Mag, blue-eyed soul singer Robin Thicke claimed that he couldn't get the cover of Vibe Magazine because he is white.

"When I did a recent interview with Vibe magazine I asked, “Why can’t I get the cover? This is a magazine I love. If there’s one magazine that I’d want to be on the cover of, it’s Vibe.” Their response was they don’t have white artists on the cover; that the only white artist they’ve had on the cover was Eminem. I guess if that’s what it is, it is what it is. And I respect that because I live in a house with a black woman.
I won’t use the word “racism.” I will say it’s a tough — but rewarding — fight. I look at Mary J. Blige, somebody who has had only a few pop hits and yet has changed culture, generated new sounds and inspired leagues of artists. She’s now a worldwide phenomenon. And it’s because of what she stood for; she never gave up. She kept making great music, pouring her heart out to people.
You can’t always expect people to be as color-blind or open-minded as you want. What you can do is keep giving your heart and soul, like Bob Marley did. His music became so overwhelmingly loving; it was a relentless love in a sense. Keep beating them down with love and they can’t stop you."

Hmmm..... I think I'm gonna have to call bullsh*t on the part of Vibe Magazine. Really, what would it look like if another publication refused to give an artist the cover because they were Black or Latino? It would look like racism!

Smph!

So, Yung Berg was a no show last night at the Savannah State 2008 Yard Show. Like we here didn't see that coming. After feeling the backlash from making those negative comments about dark skinned chicks AND getting your chain snatched in the same week, I'd bee too embarrassed to show up to an HBCU [historically black college or university] too! I mean really, how does it feel to see another dude posting pics on MySpace wearing your sh*t????

Happy Burffday Jacko!

The End of Dupri????
