[GOODIES] Men - Women Don't Come Crazy, You Make Them That Way!

GENTLEMEN - Women aren't born crazy, you make them that way. Yes I'm shifting the blame on you! Men please understand that crazy is not a gene or a disorder a woman just gets or has. When you do crazy things like lie in her face (don't think she doesn't know) or give her the run around you're going to create an impatient monster.

Now Ladies don't think this post gives you permission to smash his car, take a bat to his knees ending his hoop dreams, or calling his phone 97 times in a row only to take a few bathroom breaks. NO!

[GOODIES] Women Are Asking For Too Much!

Every girl grows up with an idea of how she wants her ideal man to be...then we grow up. Realizing Mr.Perfect doesn't exist. Than again who am I to ask for someone perfect when I have flaws my damn self, right?! Well either way every girl grew up with a checklist of all the qualities she wanted her dream man to be.

I came across this HILARIOUS article in ShyMagazine.com My Ideal Man Checklist by Mabelle Sese and she writes about how a woman's checklist changes as she gets older. Revising a womans checklist every 10 years starting from 22 years old til 72 years old you can see what qualities become more important to us, or rather unimportant.

[MUSIC] Minnesota's SOUNDSICK!!!

TURNS OUT Minnesota has a lot more to offer than just the Timberwolves! Who would have thought you'd be able to find 4 fine gentlemen with swagg AND talent like this. SOUNDSICK it is LADIES! Get well aquanted with the name because they certainly don't intend on going anywhere! After listening to a few tracks of theirs I've got to admit these guys are talented. One in particular stood out to me - The Ish - should (if not already) be something you take in, I can most definitely hear this being a club banger!

All four of them attended Concordia University in Minnesota, early 2009. It was only a matter of time that they began working together when they discovered their common goal, to find success through music. Well they're obviously on the right path if their music managed to made it up to Canada! Great Work Guys!!

[MUSIC & GOODIES] Chris Brown & Tyga's NEW Video For Holla At Me

CHRIS BROWN & Young Money's TYGA have teamed up to give us this new track Holla At Me. The beat is ridculous and Chris is actually rapping in this one not singing. Seems like everyone is pulling a Drake and decided to do both. You no longer can just be an singer or a rapper you kind of have to be able to pull of both. I'll give it to CB he did his thing on here.

The vibe of the song is what's HOT the lyrics themselves aren't bonkers. It did make me chuckle when Tyga referenced Kat Stacks in one of his bars. A video has been shot already for it already, they definitely wasted no time.

[MUSIC & TORONTO] Canada Has Been Had Talent!

TORONTO - Late last night I came across this post that Ian Kamau had made on his blog (http://iankamau.blogspot.com/2010/04/really-livin.html) in regards to Canadian Hip Hop, the Rascalz in particular.

I then began to youtube a bunch of videos and reminisce  when I use to make sure I'd tune into Da Mix with Master T. Or when I'd come home from being outside every Saturday at 2pm to catch VIBE on Much Music...those were the days.

After Drake and K'naan's recognition (finally) at the Junos, the academy finally realizing that Canadian Hip Hop is a huge part of Canadian music. Only now in 2010 do they (Junos) want to recognize Hip Hop by finally airing the Rap segment of their award show.

[GOODIES] DRAMA OVER DRAKE In Atlanta!

[GOODIES] Can I Have Your Number?

Annoying, pathetic, desperate and lack of sense are all things that immediately come to mind when thinking of that persistent fellow that will not take "no" for an answer when asking for your number. Seems as though these types of guys are never a dying bred, instead they seem to grow and get more annoying.

The thought of making this problem public (YES I said PROBLEM) came to me when one of my girlfriends told me how she was involuntarily forced to be in the same car with a guy that had simply eliminated "no" from his vocabulary, which is frightening to most woman!

Well luckily someone has heard your frustrating cries and has come up with a genius way to help you with the stress of shopping for your Mommy. My girl Kimberly Mae at V:Space Studio filled me in on this great contest they're doing called SPOIL YOUR MAMA

[MUSIC & GOODIES] Nikkie Santoro Introduces Bambi Bugatti

NIKKIE SANTORO is now introducing you to BAMBI BUGATTI (new name) - what better way to let you know who BAMBI is than in a NEW SONG?!?! This time around Nikkie aka Bambi remixed Ludacris' My Chick Bad. Leaving out Toronto (how irresponsible of him) Bambi definitely picked up Luda's slack.

Toronto has been known to have some of the baddest chicks (take in the picture of Bambi above, need I say more?) so quite frankly I'm not understanding how Ludacris (a HUGE fan of Caribana) let our great city slip his mind.

Women of Toronto - Who better to represent us than BAMBI BUGATTI?!?! She's gorgeous, clever, ambitious...I've said it before and I'll say it again...a CERTIFIED {lipstick.boss}!

[NEWS] RIP GURU

Sadly a HUGE Hip Hop mogul, Guru, passed away yesterday after his battle with Cancer at the age of 43. It really hits hard when someone who is so influential to the buildup of Hip Hop is gone. We were all ignorant to the fact that he even had cancer due to the fact he chose to keep his fight private and stated that he'd go public with it once he beat it.

2009 was NOT a good year for music with the death of soo many, Michael Jackson being one of them. Let's just hope that this is the end of it for 2010.

[GOODIES] HIT THE ROAD JACK!

I found myself at work yesterday talking to Lincoln A. Blades of This Is Your Conscience and we went from one hot topic to another, one of them being "To Kiss & Tell?". I think he was taken back by my views but here we go READERS!

Having the male friends I do really does help me get inside their heads and gives me even more of a reason to dislike ALMOST everything about them. Anyways I know a few women who have been put on blast due to men (if that's what you call them) talking their business after a night of recklessness. Which is something I can't seem to understand.

From my experience MEN TALK MORE THAN WOMEN! It's true, ladies if you're holding onto good faith that he's keeping it between the two of you *side stare* let us be real now. Chances are he's yuking it up over a few beers with Tom from across the street!
