'Jena 6' Protest Day!!!

2007-09-20T10:18:00.000-04:00

I've been out of the loop for a bit so I haven't posted about the "Jena 6' case that is taking America by storm.

For the backgroud of the case click here.

Wikipedia also has good information on the case here.

Today is the day that we all pull together and wear black to support! In Louisiana, protesters closed down streets to demonstrate for the injustice that has been done in this case. Apparently David Bowie has also gotten involved by offering 10, 000 to the Jena 6 defense fund.

If we stand for nothing we fall for everything. Support this cause people!

Weekly Rant

2007-01-19T10:14:00.000-05:00

Who died and made Rosie O'Donnell the judge of todays society!?

Apparently Rosie O'Donnell thought it would be cute to rag on American Idol yesterday on The View. Rosie apparently said that its sad that America takes Simons comments and making fun of people as entertainment.

UH HELLOOOOO!? Who just came off of a 3 week publicity stunt making fun of Donald Trump? Rosie is a comedian for God's sake!.. She thrives off of making lewd comments about celebrities and politicians.

Here is a quote from the show:“Isn’t that what America thinks is entertainment?” O’Donnell asked. “To make fun of someone’s physical appearance and then when they leave the room laugh hysterically at them – three millionaires, one probably intoxicated …”

My response is Rosie get a damn grip! The people who go on Americna idol know exactly what they are in for. Speaking of the quote unquote 'Bush Baby" as Simon put it he could not sing to save his life. Yes, we would all like to think the world is nice and fuzzy and looks dont matter but welcome to the real world. How dare you go on a show about finding the next "Big Superstar" and not be able to sing a note in tune?

That's my rant for the week!

Crazy ass New York...

2007-01-09T15:17:00.000-05:00

Here is an excerpt from a recent interview with Karu Daniels, otherwise known as "New York" Enjoy...

So are you from Rochester or Syracuse?
You know what baby? Actually I’m from upstate New York, New Hartford New York. So that’s even farther up there. It’s past Buffalo, it’s cold, it’s just a weary little city.

And now you’re putting Upstate New York on the map.
You know what baby? Yes. I’m definitely putting Upstate New York on the map and I’m happy to do it.

You’ve been described as the “Grand Diva of Arbitrary Emotions.”
What? Are you serious?

Well that’s what it says on VH1.
Well you know what baby, I really don’t go on the ‘net that much because I don’t have that much time to do stuff like that. But if that is out there for me, you know I’ll take it. I’ll be that. I’m that then. Okay.

It’s all about the internet.
It truly is. I should be ashamed of myself but I’m not. I don’t really get online as much as I should but that’s a great title to hold.

What do you in your pastime?
In my spare time, I’m basically giving a lot of attention to my nails and my skin. I’m a real huge skin person. I’m constantly washing my face making sure it’s clear and clean and making sure my nails are clean. I’m just a big skin and nails person. I hope that doesn’t sound too weird but that’s what I do in my spare time — making sure that everything is on the up and up.

You save that for ‘Essence’ magazine.
What? (laughing loudly)

Wow.. What a stylist can do for you!

Big Deal or Get Real !?

2006-09-20T08:46:00.000-04:00

Driving into work this morning I heard a radio station take calls on tis subject matter. people were furious and talking about boycotting stores that sell this product.

D-Listed has posted this information "Cocaine is the name of a new energy drink on the market and the makers claims that it is a legal alternative to the illegal drug it is named after. They also claim it will give you a longer and better energy boost then any of other brands out there.The drink is only being offered in bars in Los Angeles and New York and will debut in San Diego bars this weekend. Even though cocaine is not an ingredient in the drink, health officers are afraid it is sending the wrong message."

What do you think!?

Jay-Z's First Video Shoot

2006-09-20T08:43:00.000-04:00

Here are some pics of Jays first video shoot for the new album "Kingdome come".

My opinion....

2006-09-18T11:03:00.000-04:00

Time for a new section in the blog folks called my opinion... this is where I can rant , rave or B**** about every and anything.

Today I would like to address the FLOW 93.5 situation. Now I have heard a lot of rumors about the station being changed yadda yadda but it has YET to come into fruition. YET meaning it may happen but I can't verify that information.

I did think it would only be fair to give the new DJ's "Slim and Melanie" a try because then again "Jem and Mark" were newbies at one point and look how great they turned out?

After a couple of listens I can truly say they are garbage. This is not to insult them or anyone at FLOW 93.5 but I must ask what is the point of radio personalities that lack PERSONALITY!? They are bland and not funny. The show has few highlights other than the traffic report and the small news clip done by Ruby Jones.

To sum it up FLOW I think you have made a mistake and maybe should even consider putting DEVO on in the morning. The new team just isn't doing it for me and MANY listeners out there.

That's my opinion take it or leave it!

MORE TRACKS.: Get 'em while they're hot...

2006-09-13T11:15:00.000-04:00

Hey yall I took a couple of days of the scene to get my ish together but Im glad to say I'M BAAACK!!!

So apparently being a kid star isn't a hot idea cause all of them seem to get into SERIOUS troubles. Bossip.com reports that Keisha Knight Pulliam aka Rudy from the Cosby show is addicted to cocaine.

The blog stated"Multiple sources tell Bossip that Keisha ran in an elite circle of Morehouse and Spelman students in Atlanta who dabbled in cocaine while in college. The source who is a member of this circle says he witnessed Keisha do a line of coke at a party and that one of their friends from Florida dropped out of college and fell on hard times due to this cocaine culture within this elite group of primarily wealthy students. “Keisha still does coke and it is widely known by her friends, it’s not a secret” says a source.

Wendy Williams Says -MUST READ- ....

2006-09-06T10:21:00.000-04:00

Wendy Williams had an interview with black voices and let some sercrets and some of her opinions out of the bag. Now I have to admit she's not my FAV person in the entertainment world but the sista does keep it real.

Wendy ON: Puffy expecting a Baby "Well, Puffy's a sloppy dude, and I don't care how rich he is. He's sloppy and a real special dude. This is his third child by his third baby's mother, 'cause you know that woman Sara [Chatman] just had his child, a daughter. I think this is all out of quick publicity deflection. [Kim] might not be pregnant yet. That's probably what they are working on now to quickly give her another child so they could lock down more money. I don't know. Let them keep that bulls@#% right over there! No, he'll never marry Kim. And if he does, it's not real. It's one of those It's-cheaper-to-keep-her deals or whatever. Some real slimy s@#%."

WENDY ON: Rosie O'Donnell joining 'The View' "The who? The what? I don't watch that show! I don't even know what you are talking about. I have no idea what you are talking about."

WENDY ON:Method Man's's accusation that Williams disclosed his wife has cancer: "You know what, I wish Method Man well. I'm sorry to hear about his wife. I said nothing of the sort. I got medical records and alluded that she was sick. I never said the 'C' word. I don't play around with things like that. I got the medical minute on my own show and I'm a bit of a hypochondriac myself.

WENDY ON: Whitney and Bobby "Yeah, I love Bobby in my own way and Bobby has been a guest on my radio show and Bobby hosted my Dons & Divas [party], but Bobby ain't no good! He's no good. And now supposedly he's moved in with [Karrine] "Superhead" [Steffans]. People think that I enjoy tearing Whitney down. That I enjoy making fun of her. Yes, it does benefit my ratings on the radio, but I am also a human being. There's nothing funny about what's going on with Whitney. There's something very disgusting about Bobby's behavior in not helping his wife through this. "

FLOW 93.5 fires...

2006-08-23T19:20:00.000-04:00

In recent Toronto news FLOW 93.5 has decided to discontinue "The Morning Rush" featuring Jemini and Mark Strong. Now I can't 100% back the Validity of this letter but this is what I received ya'll (Notice it was NOT me so forgive the spelling and grammar errors):

Flow 93.5 FM has gone nuts and fired / canceled the morning Rush show(Mark Strong and Jemini) and to add to the insanity they (I really meanWayne Williams program director) went as far as canceling the HollywoodSuite (Hollywood Rich) show as well. Am I missing something, is there something that I was unaware of that prompted such a dim-witted move.

The rumor is they (WW and Flow) have hired the morning personality fromZ103 FM to take over the morning show. If this is true, are they nowgoing to change the Urban format to a Top 40? Sounds this way to me, sowhy tune into Flow just tell us to change the dial to Z103 instead.Maybe it's just me, but I'm tired of all the dumb moves / changes the station has been making lately, because it's not the personalities it'sthe rotation (Music selection) that is making the station boring thesedays. I think the change should be the program director as he is the onein charge of the content being heard on the airwaves and not thepersonalities as they would like you to think.

I'm wish we could stillget 93.7 WBLK on our radios as that was entertaining with a great musicselection and not a soap opera like our Urban I mean top 40 station wehave here in Toronto. Please forward this to as many people you canbecause something has to be done before we lose what little Urban radiowe have to the Top 40 content it seems to be heading to. And if this means that we have to boycott the station maybe that is the answer to finally get a proper voice on the airwaves that plays what wewant and not what they feel we should hear.

Signed,

Concerned listener

Now personally I know I will miss Mark and Jem as they made it easier to get my black a** up and get to work everyday. Lemme know what you think!
