In Those Leggings?



When I first I seen the leggings under the blue jean skirt my senior year I was like oh...ok thats cool. And sense then, the leggings, tights, or whatever have expanded. Women wear them with anything. Well, almost anything. I like em. I mean they're cute on females, not every female but most of em. But I'm beginning to have a problem with these leather looking leggings. I'm a guy so I guess i shouldnt be concerned and I'm not but why are females wearing plastic looking ass leggings? It just looks.....weird. Like its not even cute really. I've seen em up close in real life and I was just like....ew. hahaha. And I understand that its hard for girls to try to dress different, i mean every girl dresses almost exactly the same as the next one nowadays(no offense) guys do too, but i'm just having a problem with these shiny ass pants i'm seeing now. I miss when girls wore fitted hats. If i seen a girl rock a throwback Pirates hat, that would blow me away. That would be ill haha. I also miss when chicks wore sneakers. Like dope sneakers. Flats are cool, Keds are cool, but fuck, ya'll dont like Jay's(Jordan's) anymore? I will say one thing. I am happy that chicks aren't wearing Baby Phat jeans that much anymore and weird jeans with no back pockets. I dunno. I think in 3 years If i keep seeing females with the leggings/tights and the same old shit, i'm gonna lose it....not really, but I'ma be disappointed in fashion i guess. Shout out to Rocky! She rocks PANTSSSSS haha

Unbeweavable

This is pretty crazy right here. I'm no fan of weave even though i know much about it(mom's is a dope hairstylist), but this is probably the only time where i'm gonna give the fake stuff some props. haha. Funny side note, Jerrbear sent me this video and then ten minutes later Raz sent it to me. Must be that important eh?

Day n Night

Either you like this song or you dont. Thats it. Haha. I liked it as soon as I heard it and proceeded to get his mixtape. Kid Cudi is dope. I wish I looked like Kid Cudi. haha. I like the fact that he can sing and rap and does both over a mixture of electro/hip hop beats. And I want some damn Jordan's. =]

Oh and the video was directed by the same guy who made the Good Life video and D.A.N.C.E. video.

Here We Go Again

I really can't believe this bullshit. You'd think since they showed a bunch of white folks cheering at the Obama speeches and rallies, racism was started to go down. Nope! We should've known better than that. Ever since he won, Myself and some other friends(of colour) have noticed subtle racist shit from people. Condescending remarks about a black man being president, stairs(well we're used to that), and dumb ass cartoon's such as the one printed in the New York Post. I'm also sick and tired of the press always pointing to Al Sharpton's bitch ass like he's gonn do something. All he does is say how outrageous something is and then goes back into hiding until some other shit happens. He needs to get the fuck on. And lets not get into Cops shooting things they shouldnt such as unarmed people(Sean Bell, the guy in Oakland). They stay fuckin up. Is Change really gonna come, or was Sam Cooke blowing smoke?

Welcome to Heartbreak

Kanye West ft. Kid Cudi
This video is......incredible yo. Nobody's gonna believe me when I say this but I have images like this in my head when I listen to certain songs and I have never seen it done for music video until now. ILL!!!!!!!!!

Music pick of the Week: ASHER ROTH

So they're had to be at least 20 remixes of "A Milli" and the one that stood out to me the most was Asher Roth's version. He totally dissed everything Weezy was about and rapped better than him. Asher Roth is honest and fun, thats why I like him. I mean he can rhyme very well but for the most part he's very care free and thats really different in hip hop nowadays. So here's his ode to college entitled "I Love College". You should download his mixtape too. =]
