Oh Kelis…Part II

I just looked at the Bossy video, and I must say I really miss this chick. I couldn’t let this subject rest. It’s like when you see a girlfriend go down, and you got to intervene to help. She even missed the last issue of MissBehave, for which she writes a column about feminism. We got to get her back, and give her a new look. Something that everyone will want to jump on board with…how about just reinventing her old colorful locks!? Rihanna couldn’t do that...her heads to big. Sorry RiRi, you know how deep our love is for each other. Anyhoo, check out a couple of Kelis’s videos, so you can reminisce, and fall in love with her once again.


Kelis-Lil Star(This one wasn't released on video stations)


Kelis-Young, Fresh 'N' New (I want an all girl band!)



Kelis-Bossy(So glam...I could've sworn they did a line in this shit...lol!)

I luvs JUGRNAUT!!!


Hey peeps! I know you have seen me blog about a rad boutique in the Go, called Jugrnaut. Well the guys there have been doing it really big these days with more merchandise from your fav brands, more contests, and more parties! And they have always been female friendly, most urban boutiques neglect the ladies(like we don't wanna be fly!). Dope right. And on top of everything else, they have a pretty cool blog. Check it out.

Pharells is expecting a baby!!! WTF!


So, yo...u were just not gonna tell me you knocked up a model, right? I mean, ya know, I ain't no model, but I can make some mean turkey tacos. Its cool. Sniff, sniff. I thought what we had was official, even though my hatin' ass pseudo boo said my feet were too big, and we would NEVER have kids together because of this. Sniff, sniff. Can I ask just one thing? Can I come to the baby shower at least...I won't tell her about us. K? Think about it. Love ya.

The Hills have eyes…and they’re mine!


Anyone else stoked about The Hills? Well I am. More scripted drama! I am like the LC of my friends! I also love that Lo! She is the best friend every girl prays for at night. Can’t wait till August 18th!

Rosci loves Rihanna too!

So lets have a threesome girls! We can be on some Katy Perry ish. By the way, did anyone peep Rihanna’s “Disturbia” video. Dope. I might use that as the theme to my Halloween party.

Jason Weaver! OMG!

I heard this song a couple weeks ago on the radio. It brought back so many memories. I miss the 90s, and to be a teen then totally rocked. I used to go to grammar school with Jason Weaver...this was around his Lion King days. My mom was trying to hook us up. It didn't work out, I was too young. Oh well. He is ugly now. You seen ATL. Enjoy this video.

Project Runway this week


I loved the assignment this week on Project Runway. The whole organic/green material thing is so on point. And I am a big fan of organic materials! The designers did a good job on some of the dresses. I was a little worried, because the first episode didn’t sit to well with me. I hate the supermarket challenge, it’s a little 3rd grade to me. I don’t have a fav yet, but in the coming weeks I will…

Seeing Stars


I luvs my stars. I always have. I rock them on my clothes, ears, and everywhere else. No its not a gang related thing, or a Chicago thing...it just symbolizes dreams, and feeling like a star! Lately, more so than usual, alot of people have been rocking star tattoos. Its been fucking crazy! Everywhere I go, I see men and women with stars on different places of their body. Dope. I recently got my stars over a month ago, and they are very special to me. I really don't have to wear any items containing this symbol, cause its permanent now. Its sorta what all the cool people are getting now...like an unspoken language. The only thing I am worried about now is, the whole trend aspect of it. Will this be like the tribal tats? Awww, maybe not. Give yourself a star for the day! Yay!

I love the radio…its so random…


I know that title has nothing to do with this posting, but I was watching SNL this weekend. Anyhoo, to the subject at hand. Have you ever watched a movie and compared it to your life? How about a particular character? Of course you have…who hasn’t. What character in a movie do you play in a relationship? I just really realized what character I am…Pepper Potts from Iron Man. Yes. The Miss Potts. How did I come to this conclusion? Well, I have always served as an assistant to my love interests. I lotion bodies, dress them, pay bills(I use their credit card and cash of course), download songs for Serato, send emails off, manage Myspace pages, look for sneakers, etc. I am actually comfortable with this, because this is me. I love doing it. I don’t know why, I guess it’s my stylist/behind the scenes persona. The only problem I do have, is the guys that I deal with becoming comfortable with this. I mean, I have had two guy friends in the industry already tell me that they want to use me as their assistant. Um, hello? How about just make me your girlfriend? Too easy, right? So will I be the live in help for a gorgeous man, that I can’t make mine. Only time will tell, only time will tell.

I fucking love 106 & Park now!


So since Rosci walked off the set last Friday, 106 & Park has been quite intriguing. Seeing the guest stars overshadow Terrance, rocks. He looks like a little fish in a big pond. Ha! Granted 106 hasn’t been same since Free and AJ, but it’s like damn, I really never had a problem with Rosci, well I do have a problem with her style. Maybe I am bias cause she did radio in the Go. I just always felt their relationship on screen wasn’t the best, especially since Terrance makes her the butt of all his jokes. And it doesn’t help that she has fucked damn near most of the industry. Girl, girl, girl. Remember, women are always looked at differently when it comes to us being sexually liberated. Well it has been a few days now, and mamacita hasn’t been back. I guess we will see…stay tuned.

The 20-Somethings…

Once you get to your mid-twenties, you sorta go through an early mid life crisis. Questions arise…should I have kids, should I get married, am I doing what I love, will my metabolism slow down…shit like that. You evaluate all you’ve done, and wonder is it enough. I mean, imagine being 25….you are stuck in between innocence and adulthood. Its hella crazy. Like Michael Jackson. The other day my aunts’ friend (who can be irritating) stops by our crib to visit. It’s like a TV show neighbor. They pop in without a key or even a knock. Anyhoo, she tells me how her friends daughter has graduated from Dartmouth (like I really give a fuck), and she has two degrees, making that guap. It seems like she always mention her around me. Well she took it pretty far this particular day. She then goes to say that some people are just born with it…I asked, born with what? She then proceeds to say, you know, brains, to get far in life. WTF! She also starts to say, that you shouldn’t wait till you get pass 28 to have kids. Wow, well my life is all screwed up. And to put the nail in the coffin, she says that I haven’t found my niche, that’s all. My niche? Bitch, I ain’t some confused teenager! A What! I was already feeling down about myself, I just felt even worst. Let me put it to you like this folks, school ain’t for everybody. Granted, I did go, but I regret it. The education system is so screwed up. Let me give you an example, you have to have a child, or your parents need to be dead to get a free ride. See? My mom was dirt poor, and I still had to come out of my pockets. A refund check? Ha! I never saw one. I feel like listening to some Dead Prez right about now! Fuck you, and fuck the system. I am out to cheat the system, fudgefackers. To be continued…

Go-ILL!!!!!!!!!!! Yesssir!!!



What you know about that? New Limited Edition "GO" tee by Chicagos own Estrumental.

So Random...


Isn’t Christie Brinkley like, looking so fab during her divorce preceedings? I mean, come on…

There were Leaders at the block party?

I am sure whoever reads this know about, or is aware of the sneaker boutique in the Chi called Leaders 1354. If you do not, then you are wack, and I will have to learn you…just kidding. Anyhoo, every summer Leaders have a block party at their Bronzeville (my hood!) location. Well this summer was no different, and to add to the excitement, I was there! Yay!!! Me and my dope friends showed our faces for a hot second. Also, we had baby Tegan with us. She is next in line. It was so hard picking out an outfit for this event, knowing I would be amongst supreme freshness. Come on, I mean I saw the first chick with the M.O.B/Collette Reebok joints! I love my city. Sorry, I just had to say that. There were performances, hipster dudes & dudettes, Million $ Mano on 1s & 2s, Hollywood Holt, groupies, bust downs, lames, and more! Plus, I was gone off vodka and lemonade! Mmmm! Afterwards we engaged in a spur of the moment photo shoot, with a backdrop supplied by the city. Rad! Enjoy the pics.









Questlove in the house!

Omg! This must’ve happened over a month ago. I just ran across the pics from when Questlove spinned at Buddha. My friends sister was in town, so I thought that going to this would be pretty dope. Plus, Questlove always rips it when he is in town. And he brings the rest of the crew, including the always high Black Thought. Who always decides to smoke weed in the clubs. Anyhoo, we were high off the music that he provided us with, and a very eclectic mix of music I might say. From Krucial Conflict to Biggie to Troop to Fela Kuti to War. Here are some of the pics I retrieved from that memorable evening.





I Heart Fanny Pak & So Real!



I have never been the dancey type. I mean, I respect the art, but fashion & music is what gets me off. Don’t merge them together, I will just explode. I have been watching America’s Favorite Dance Crew again, and I must say there are some creative groups on the show. Mainly the 80s style dancing of Fanny Pak, and the slow grinding group with the two cute chicks, So Real. And I might have crushes on some of the fellas in Supreme Soul. Anyhoo, if you haven’t been watching this show because you protest MTV for not showing enough videos, I encourage you to do so. Its kinda dope.

Mrs. Butterworth rocks!


Did you all spot Mrs. Butterworth in the new Geico commercial? WTF! She makes a guest appearance as the celeb that usually explains the customers’ experience. The funniest part about this shit is that Mrs. Butterworth gets the Geico logo put right across her face at the end of the commercial. Hilarious! She then says in her Mrs. B voice, “Oh, and someone just put the logo right over my face.” Genius.

So cuuute!

I usually stray away from pink sneakers...even though, I love pink. But these were too dope not to blog about...check these Pink Clay Dunk Highs. Oh yeah...I saw these at SuccezZ Boutique(click on the keyword).

Runs House is baaaaaaaack!!

Yup! It sure is! Why am I so happy? Um, maybe because something can take the place of Real World, since the season is over. And besides that, I love that Angela Simmons and Diggy. Superdope!

Superhead is a Superread


Okay, okay. I know I must be the last person on earth to read this book. But that’s because everyone had already told me pretty much most of the book! Well, while searching for some porn around the house last week, I came across Confessions of a Vixen, in my aunt’s book stash. Superdope, cause I was bored anyway. I decided that instead of masturbating, I would finish this book in a day. And I did. While reading and watching videos, I became intertwined in this tale of sex, drugs, and pretty much rap & roll. I cried, laughed, and felt horny all at once. I honestly could put myself in the shoes of Karrine Steffens. Especially being in a mini industry of what she does...hell; I am one step or phone call away of being in that lifestyle. She caught a lot of flack for writing this book, but I never agreed with any of it. Women are always subjected for our sexuality, and Men are accepted for theirs. No fair. So what she put a few rappers on blast! In the end, it didn’t hurt them. The main lesson I got from the book was breaking the bad cycles of which our families have created. And I think that’s what everyone should’ve focused on. The End.

My Pink Bullet


I am so gross...but I really couldn't give a fuck! Anyhoo, last night I went out to the Erotic Warehouse in the West Loop to search for a small vibrator. I own a few large dildos, and other gadgets. But since I am staying with someone, I have to be discreet in my masterbation sessions. So I decided that it was time to get something miniture that I could throw in my Louie bag, and get to stepping. After spending three minutes deciding if I wanted the bondage tape, I saw it. My baby. She was carefully wrapped in a plastic pouch that read: The O Bullet. My eyes glistened, and I showed my ex. Its pink. This is the one. I want it! I purchased my baby, and told the clerk to keep the bag. I am green nowadays. I kept staring at it, pushing the button...feeling the vibration.
So of course I had to try this baby out. I hate internet porn, but I have no movies...remember the previous post. Keep up. After going on BangBros.com, and a few orgasms, I was worn out from the power that this tiny thing packed. Whew!
And another thing...before anybody judge me, people say safe sex is no sex. I say, safe sex, is sex with yourself. Peace!

What you know about this....


Tracy Spencer, Tender Kisses, 1990

or this...


Adina Howard, Freak Like Me, 1995


You young bucks don't know about this ish..haha! Enjoy!

Friends: Really? Oh wow! Cool! What is it?
Me: These Jeans...their awesome!

Boo? Well okay...I am trying to be comical this morning. Anyhoo...I bought the stonewash jeans I was obsessing over in my previous blog. And yes...they are awesome!!! I give them 3 stars!!! They meet the booty approval too! Only thing is that they look similar to my grey Levi's...well to others they do. I feel so cool walking down the street, like I am straight out of being an extra from Do the Right Thing. My theme music though is Tracy Spencers, "Tender Kisses". Its all about summer love...ya know? I urge you girlies...and maybe some emo guys, to get a pair! I have one word...Hard. Check the pics!

The Summer of Chi


Awww...the life of a party promoter...

I'm a bleeder!


Since I lose so much blood every month...I feel that I am losing brain cells too. Its like drugs. Everything is starting to make so much sense too me now. I always feel light headed like I am high. And why must I have to use pads and tampons together? Damn...its like I just had a baby. WTF! Sorry guys. I had a girl moment. Ewww.

In Love with Another Man by Jazmine Sullivan


I know yall been hearing this chick on the radio, that voice sounds similiar to Lauryn Hill, without the current hoarseness. Jazmine Sullivan(no relation)is the next chick up to bat, and her new single "Need U Bad" is blowing up the airwaves. She has another song called, "In Love With Another Man". I fucking love this song. I have been going through alot love wise. I tend to tell my closest friends, but yet I have not figured out or solved my recent status. This song pretty much explains my situation, I don't even need to talk, it says it all. I have looked to many movies, and music to help me get an answer to what I am going through, but there has been no resolution. Anyhoo, more on that later...check out this track.

Candy Paint Dripping


I have had my eye on the Sergio Rossi Paint Drips for a minute. I spotted them in Nylon, and a few other fashion mags. I must give props to Alicia Keys for rocking them at this years BET Awards, with the four finger ring. Ultra Dope. I love weird , funky, offbeat shit , so I gots to get my hand on a pair. And ladies, they are only $300, not bad for a good designer shoe! Can you imagine red paint dripping off the shoe?!!! It would look like blood er something… so hard.

Brenda’s got a problem!!!


This has been an on going subject lately…I had to chime in….
I sometimes I hate @$#%&*@#$ people. U wanna know why? Because only “they” can take something that was and still a serious epidemic in America and glamorize it. Teen pregnancy was acknowledged in rap songs and low budget films in the early nineties. What was once embarrassing, and only seen in lower class Americans, is now popularized by movies like Juno, Jamie Lynn Spears, and every other fucking wack ass celebrity. WTF! We as a culture and a race, were shunned upon, simply because, the lack of sexual education. I guess its now okay to be knocked up and sixteen. Thanks!!! Lets continue to educate, young people!
