Good morning.

Have a good day!

New Music Review

Whew!!! About time I heard some good music!! I was beginning to think that "A Bay Bay" or whatever that bullshit is called is all we had to offer!

Alas!!! Talib Kweli comes and saves the day! Ear Drum is like a breath of fresh air! There is not one track on the CD that I do not like. From track 13 "Hot Thing" which is produced by Will I AM, to track 20 with JT (scuzz bucket Justin Timberlake) on "Nature".

Talib has alot of collaborations on the CD. From Kayne to Norah Jones. I love Talib and he is a very underrated artist. Folks are looking for more mainstream, like TI and so forth, but what you get with Talib is strong lyrics, self pride, and amazing beats. Please go out and support this CD. You will not regret it.

Britney Madness

I know, I know, there are a million other blogs covering this damn mess with Brit Brit and Kevin Federline. But I just had to give my opinion, as if it matters.

CPS (Child Protective Services) have launched an investigation into allegations of child abuse. This does not mean that Brit Brit is mistreating her boys, and I am getting soo tired of reading that. She married a fuckin bum, and he is putting her through all this legal mess at her expense.

Unless she comes to court with a fuckin needle sticking out her arm, Kevin is NOT going to get the kids fulltime!!! No parent is perfect, as clearly we see neither Kevin nor Brit has demostrated responsible parenting.

Kevin has the white folks thinking he is this settled parent and that she is not. Let's not forget this asshole walked on his former pregnant black girlfriend for Brit Brit. You never hear about him filing full custody of the mixed kids he has with Uncle Tom Shar Jackson, do you???? Because her black ass is broke, that is why!!! Kevin is wasting his time as well as Brit's time and I am gonna laugh my ass off when the final hearing comes down that he will NOT get full time custody of those boys.

Kevin needs to focus on finding work and supporting these kids he has, instead of living off of Britney's money.

Where is Faith Evans?????

Where in the world is my girl Faith Evans? I have not heard from her since she dropped the CD "The First Lady" in 2005. I have been a big fan of hers since she first came out in 1995. Just a wee bit disappointed that she doesn't have the same noteriety as Mary J. Blige.

Faith has been quoted saying that her family comes first, and I don't knock that at all, but I am pretty sure the family needs to eat. I don't see Todd doing too much. Oh, I forgot he is a "music producer." It seems that in between records, she disappears.

She had a baby recently, and that may contribute this time to her being out of the limelight, but what about the other times she has failed keep in touch with her fan base? Unfortunately, it is too late for Faith.

You have out there girls that are younger and do tours (Keyshia Cole comes to mind), willing to keep their names in everyone's mouths. I am just concerned that by the time Faith does decide to come back out, she will have to start all over again regaining her fanbase. Which after 30 is hard to do. Damn, just in 2005 she started doing tours and singing live for pete's sake!!!

Faith is strictly a studio artist, no kind of stage presence, as I have heard her live, and although the sista can blow, she lacks that something special that makes folks pay to see you perform. I actually yawned, and she was off key.

Rumor has it she is due to release another CD in 2008 and has alot of strong producers on it. Let's hope this time she learns to properly promote the CD.

Beyonce

Is is just me, or is Beyonce getting worn out??? She has not given us one ounce of a break. Back to back records, even now has a spanish LP out for crossover appeal. Trying to cover all of the markets.

I am not mad at B one bit for getting that money, but damn, can she at least take a two year break and allow us to miss her? B is very talented and one of the few artists (besides Michael Jackson) that can sing and dance- total package. I just wish she would go away for a while.

Her tour is not fairing too well. When she was in Philly (I live in Delaware), there were soo many tickets on sale!!! But they were a bit too pricey for me. $200 for a seat? Nah, I will pass.

Been away!!!!

I have not been posting anything on my blog. Just got sad because no one was reading it. There are soo many other blogs out there for folks to read, I guess my mines just got lost.

I vow to write daily in my blog if not for anyone else's benefit, but at least for mines!!!!
