don't call it a comeback: Ladies First Edition

not really CRAZY about the new kelis song....but i appreciate the fact that she's
going all ziggy stardust on us. always 2 steps ahead of you EDGY hoes.

sade. new album. February 10 release date. nuff said.

love this woman-girl hybrid. cutest thing ever. a real musician. a fucking survivor.
both nyc dates sold out weeks ago.
read the UK Times Review of her first show in 2 years.


last and definitely least Kid Sister
though this doesn't actually qualify as a comeback, since it took her 3 years to make this debut,
we'll call it a comeback anyway since she should've came out when this type of music was relevant.
nonetheless....file this one under I'LL PASS

illiterate thugs need not apply

my homey, the future gnome maker, just put me onto her homey's new bookstore.
book thug nation:

i'll for sure be poppin on saturday for this "literary event" (so highbrow, yet so gutter).

"i mean, it beats selling books outta your trunk"

Why Won't The FTC Let Me Be Great?!?!

Before I could even get the gettin' whilst the gettin' was good, along come the FTC, Federal Trade Commision hindering a sister's greatness!!



The FTC has announced new regulations that would require bloggers to disclose monetary and material compensation provided by companies seeking exposure in the blogosphere
More commonly known as Payola, pay for play, the FTC wants bloggers to be upfront with readers about the source of the merchandise that they endorse or review favorably. In a time when advertising budgets are rapidly shrinking, and consumers are looking to man-on-the-street blogs versus Consumer's Digest and larger publications for the final word in spending, blogs have become a cheap alternative. Rather than shelling out big bucks for ad space in mags, in their merciful benevolence companies send out freebies to needy and deserving bloggers, who in turn might-or-might-not praise the merchandise. Now where is the harm in that?!?!
I like to think of it as the Corporation/Editorial/Consumer Circle of Life.....like in The Lion King.


The bugs eat the grass, the animals eat the bugs, the animals then eat each other, and we eat the animals. SEE?!?! One hand feeds the other. No body moves, No body gets hurt.

THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION = HATERS
Cuz truthfully they just wanna know how much merch is being trafficked so that they can tax it.
All the government ever wants to do is take their cut off the top and let the populace share the crumbs. Biggie said it best "Damn, Why the Wanna Stick Me for My Paper?"
