[MUSIC] North America Meet Too Cherelle

CHERELLE - Potential Sony BMG artist (shhhh ya'll don't know that) Cherelle has been making some serious noise across the water over in the UK at 19 years old! Going through her pictures she's definitely a hottie and I don't doubt for one minute that she'll take off with the right support behind her. 

Similar to M.I.A she's a cross bread between a "hip hop hipster and high fashion addict" as well as a killer dance stare. She's been recognized in her hometown of Atlanta for her dance skills and now has gotten plenty of international eyes on her with her music.

The song that was passed along to me called Too Cherelle was something that fits perfectly at any get funky type party. I don't really see people NOT enjoying this young woman. Very interested to see what she has to offer later on.

[GOODIES] Successful Black Women Are EVERYWHERE! Men STOP Complaining!

SINGLE SUCCESSFUL BLACK MEN - In response to Lincoln A. Blade's post on http://www.thisisyourconscience.com/ - If There's So Many Single Successful Black Women, I Have 1 Question. WHere The HELL Are Ya'll? - I've got to say seems like the men today have gotten to comfortable with trying to validate why THEY'RE single. Hush now, us women have legitament complaines that cause us to either be single or tolerate a massive amount of bullsh*t.

In the post Lincoln claims he has NO idea where to find a single successful black women. Ummmm.....if ANY man is having a hard time finding a woman that fits those criterias in a city like Toronto is probably the same person who wouldn't be able to spot an elephant in a room.

A friend of mine, Ziplock TAC of The Lego Gang, said it the best "the city is littered of beautiful women..."!

[MUSIC & GOODIES] The Dream Talks About My Make Up Bag!

THE DREAM - This has got to be my 2010 summer tune! Last year was Trey Songz - I Need A Girl...this is it's The Dream ft. TI - Make Up Bag!

The beat intro is enough to have just about anyone moving. The Dream's vocals are just enough for the song and Tip's verse is a perfect addition!

The Dream really impressed me when he starts describing all the different types of make up and brands, impressed to say the least!

Every {lipstick.boss} knows that you don't have to be a drag queen to drop $500 on your make up effortlessly!
