Leave a reply

If you are from the Midwest then you know that yesterday was a holiday that is dedicated to the special men in your life titled “Sweetest Day”. That’s when all us ladies go all out for that special man to show our appreciation & gratitude of having that man in our life!

King Styleon dropped a video yesterday titled “The Sweetest Day Flaws & All” basically expressing his feelings to the woman he loves. Overall, a great video and I am starting to find myself looking forward to future projects from King Styleon. A Cleveland, Ohio native whose lyrics have meaning as well as a feel good charm to it that I know y’all will truly enjoy!! Check the video out below & comment!!!

JACQUEES QUEMIX 3 IS RELEASED

Leave a reply

Well…I can not say that I am not heavily surprised that on the same day Ella Mai is out doing press interviews promoting her self titled debut album, Jacquees, decides to drop his 3rd installment of the Quemix.

https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js

I swear I told yall about a year ago that R&B is not dead! With new music from Ella Mai, Usher and today with Jacquees gives me so much more hope that there is more to look out for. Speaking on Jacquees, since he is the reason for the season for this post today, he released a third installment to his Quemix series. This is a short mixtape, basically a teaser, only 30 minutes of him singing over used beats, but changing them up to fit his style. With a few artist features including Trey Songz & Wale, providing this mixtape with the energy I wished we could have received from Jacquees full length album “4275” that was released earlier this year. Check out the mixtape below and leave your comments!!!

Mashonda Interview With The Breakfast Club

Leave a reply

Mashonda, Swizz Beatz ex-wife, was a featured guest on New York’s Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club talking about her new book “Blend”.

I was able to catch this great interview with Mashonda, who is promoting her new book “Blend”, which is about co-parenting with Swizz Beatz & adding his current wife, Alicia Keys, into this blended family to make the kids happy. I swear this is a subject that I feel as if everybody has went through or knows someone who has.

I feel as if Mashonda has came a LONG way since the days of freshly breaking up with Swizz Beatz. There was so much being put out by Mashonda to the blogs! Her specifically calling Alicia a homewrecker & blaming Swizz for leaving her broke. Now in the year of 2018, Mashonda has finally gotten over her past & is moving forward to assist in providing a lovable family situation for Kasseem.

I have not read the book “Blend” yet, but I do plan to. I want to read the part Mashonda stated how Swizz was unable to attend parent teacher conferences, and Alicia offered herself to go in his place. Like, WOW! I do not know any stepmother aka mommy #2 who has stepped up like that! Mashonda mentioned how after that specific situation, she had no choice but to take Alicia serious & to allow her to be a role model as well as a mother to Kasseem too!

“The key to making this partnership to work was letting all the hurt & disappointments go of my relationship not working” stated Mashonda. Trust that if she did not let the past go, that favorite term of “bitter babymomma” would’ve been the talk of the town and the blogs. Which is sad, for who actually plans to raise a baby on their own? I know I did not.

I give so much kudos to Mashonda & Swizz Beatz for turning their whole relationship around for the sake of Kasseem, and I give kudos to Alicia for being that supportive wife & stepmother which helped Mashonda to view her in a way that allowed her to move on from her past.

Happy Birthday Lil Wayne

Leave a reply

I have to send a special happy birthday to one of my favorite rapper to whom I came of age listening to, the legend, Lil Wayne!!!!!

https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js

As a special birthday gift to the world, Wayne will be FINALLY releasing his much anticipated album “The Carter V” at midnight tonight!!! I also found out that Wayne like Diddy, has now joined the liquor making lane, it’s called Bumbo, and is supposed to be a special type of Rum.

https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js

I got hip to his drink while watching the most recent episode of Drink Champs, Noreaga’s hot podcast show and on this episode JaRule and Noreaga was sipping on Bumbo! I noticed they kept saying it was very smooth with a ginger type of taste to give you an island feel. Hey, maybe Wayne wouldn’t mind being sponsors to the Hit or Miss show…got to speak greatness into existence! LOL

Make sure to stay tuned to the blog for New Music Fridays for the Carter V will be dropping at midnight as well as Quavo’s solo album too!

Young Thug – On The Rvn

Leave a reply

Young Thug dropped “On The Rvn” over the weekend & already got a few people talking about the 6 song project!

https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js

With features including 6lack, Jaden Smith, T-Shyne & Elton John this is a strong EP for Thug. In my opinion, you can tell that he is evolving with his music while still staying true to himself. I do wish that he included atleast 2 to 3 more songs BUT the anticipation for more music from him is what I crave and keeps me listening. Check out the tracks below & comment your thoughts!

LeBron James Will Be Taking Over On Space Jam 2

Leave a reply

LeBron James will be taking over from where Michael Jordan left off on the original Space Jam movie, and what make this an extra plus the sequel is the director from one of the top grossing movies of this year, Black Panther!!

https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js

Per People magazine, Spring Hill Entertainment, LeBron’s production company, posted the picture earlier today confirming to fans that he will be playing the lead in Space Jam 2. The other names shown are, Black Panther, Ryan Coogler, who will be producing, indie film director, Terrance Nance, who will be directing this movie too.

We can not forget my favorite bunny, Bugs Bunny, whose voice will be done by, Eric Gauza, and who will also be playing point guard as per the photo. Eric will also do the voice of Daffy Duck, too! Lastly, Duane Frank as the “Water Boy”.

Some of my younger readers may not remember, but the original Space Jam, which came out in 1996, starred as the lead was, Michael Jordan, who at the time was as HOT as Lebron is now in 2018. I totally can not wait to see this movie..umm I meant the KIDS can not wait to see it LOL

Also, make sure to tune in this winter on HBO, James, production company has a barber shop themed show titled, The Shop,which will have him & athletes sitting around talking about trending topics while getting a fade!
