Reason # Fifty-eleven Hunred
Why I heart NY Mag......
They just pulled Ciara's card.
Beyonce, Gaga and Rihanna should, and quite possibly could, collectively sue for infringement.
And why is she rocking Cornrows on in 2009?!?!
Girl you just box yourself out by doing nonsense like that.
Really tho....you can't be rocking Maison Martin Margiela & Alexander Wang with cornrows.
You just can't!
If you're willing to spend that much on a bomb-ass stylist to borrow that stuff for you (I know you didn't buy it); spend a tad more on your yaki-game.
Cuz this tired drawstring ponytail from senior prom, is not gonna make it.
BTWss cop yours here EARLY !!!!! Its 18 inches for JUST $9.99
ANYHOO....I didn't get up and blog to spread negativity today, but rather love.
You know what Biggie said "Spread Love its the Brooklyn Way"
Cop your subscription to New York MAG

Sometimes, I like my life
So last night was the company Holiday Party.
And this was the gift that I walked away with......
And this was the gift that I walked away with......
The Marc Jacobs Loves Lil' Kim T-Shirt!!!
I was soo hype that I grabbed the mic from the DJ and said "BK ALL DAY, EVERYDAY!!"
There is a cute story to go with this shirt. During the summer one the associates wore it to work and I nearly ripped it off her back. The same day a customer came in with it on.....and none of them could remember where they got it.....LIARS!!
Anyway, The Good Lord saw it fit that I own this lil' gem....Thanks JC!!

While I have very mixed feelings about Kanye West... My sentiments about his new video are sure....
I appreciate the whole "everyday day life as a photoshoot motif", it says so much about pop culture and most importantly the mentality of many females today. The storyline is unfortunate yet so true to life. Living in NYC, for a while that seemed to be the main topic of news of for so long. The City Business bureau even clamped down on the issuing of liquor licenses to new venues in response to young women going missing after a night of wild partying.
there is so much i can say on this topic, but check out the video and tell me what you think.

Is it something in the Water??
What in the world is going on?!?!
First there was Eliot Spitzer and Ashley Dupre,
(Spitzer discussing his manhood)
Then there was David Patterson and his God-Knows-How-Many Woman
(His wife looks like shes about to slap him)
Now Sharpe James and Tamika Riley....
And have you heard the charges...
Does no one respect the Holy Union of Marriage? How about a Public Position???
Not even a little bit...
These folks are reckless!

Field Trip Summary Vol. 2 Hip Rock Reggae
The next event I made it to was this
Held at the Hiro Ballroom (nice venue, but its on the West side...so sad so unfortunate). This production seemed to be sponsored, hosted and endorsed by everyone (see the long ass list of logos), but unfortunately no one was running the show. As my mother would say "too many cooks spoil the pot." This is an example of poor delegation: their was no master of ceremonies to direct the evening. Bands just showed up, jumped on stage and proceeded to abuse the audience. All of the Hip Hop artists sounded like UK Garage and Grime circa 2005. The acts that were booked were super random. Mixing Rock, hip hop and Reggae, good, i get it. Just make sure that you do it right.
On a positive note: Hypnotic Brass Ensemble came thru and salvaged the evening.
They only did 3 songs but it was totally worth the Metrocard Fare (who am I kidding...that was my Dad's Metrocard). If you've ever walked thru Union Square, then i'm sure you've heard them. This group of brothers learned their craft from their Father growing up in Chi Town and have truly made a name for themselves here on the NYC Streets.
Watch this backstage impromptu performance with Mos Def at Brooklyn Academy of Music
Check out their Myspace page for music and performance dates. Myspace.com/hypnoticbusiness
And make sure to read their profile in the New York Times.
Now while I'm all about high culture, low culture, street culture, and whateva else people are calling themselves these days; I, Culture Snobbette, am a woman at the end of the day. So needless to say I have now become a fan of Game Rebellion!
Game Rebellion mixes Rap and Rock so effortlessly that they got thugs in their mosh pits.
I don't know I can't really put my finger on it...

Yeah, their music is good and their stage performance is amazing, but they've got something else going for them...

Questionable Cover-age
Fact #245 about Culture Snobette: I am a Newsstand Addict!!
I absolutely adore magazines and publications in general and have been known to spend large amounts of Other People's Money on my voracious mag appetite.
So as apart of my self-imposed 12 Steps, I no longer have to buy each mag that I want/NEED. Thanks to steps 6 & 7, I can now simply peruse the covers, smell the pages and leave Universal News with my fix fully satisfied.
Anyway, while browsing the racks, I came across a few covers that were questionable to say the least, and others that were in clear Violation of The Culture Code of Ethics.
First up was Marie Claire
Christina, Whoring out your pregnancy for media coverage is a sad and dangerous game...We all saw what happened to Britney.... Now they only see mommy on saturdays and sundays between 12-4.
NOT SNOB-APPROVED!
Next up is KING
Now while I don't really expect much from this urban men's mag...I do expect more from it's cover girl Angel Melaku. Her parents are Ethiopian and Trinidadian and I hope they raised her better than this. Even if she is trying to parlay this videoHo thang (and yes, i did say thang!!) into an acting, singing, heck even book deal, she must know that know one is gonna take her seriously with such a huge ass. Point blank.
For further inspection
Hate to break it to ya...but you'll be doing bootie mags and BET Uncut till that thing starts to sag.
By the way Real or Fake????
NOT SNOB-APPROVED!
Last and definitely least is XXL
Lil Wayne. I'm over it. Period.
Coming from someone that grew up on AND with hip hop, someone who pressed their face to the window as The Notorious BIG's motorcade rolled pass that bleak day in Brooklyn, someone who has walked with the Greats (okay, maybe not all of that, but I was at an LL Cool J videoshoot and shook his hand).....Lil Wayne is neither great, nor good, muchless is his crap acceptable to anyone who has even heard of the word quality.
If you wanna listen to crappy hip hop while you're up in the club (Lil John & Ying Yang Twins), or even when you're taping your friends for YouTube (Chicken Noodle Soup & Soulja Boy), that's all well and good. But please people, Please I Implore you, don't exhalt these carbon copy "rappers" to the heights of Biggie, Tupac, Big L, Rakim.
And Most importantly "DON'T BELIVE THE HYPE" - Public Enemy
DEFINITELY NOT SNOB-APPROVED!

Turckey holocaust: American style
so its thanksgiving today. clearly things have gotten off to a rough start, seeing as i'm sober right now. but bigger than all of that, my obsession for the past couple of days has turned to specific culinary delicacy....
No, not that snooty bird... her skanky mutt cousin, TurDuckIn
yes, turduckin and she's not an urban legend she's real yo, but her past is kinda shady.
this culinary cross-breed is a turkey, stuffed with a duck, which is then stuffed with a chicken. all the aforementioned birds are partially deboned and between each layer is a smearing of sausage meat, ya know to keep things together.
The exact origin of the Turduckin is not quite clear but it has been attributed to Southern Creole culture; though the art of stuffing multiple birds has been around since the middle ages.
The largest recorded nested bird roast is 17 birds, attributed to a royal feast in France in the 19th century: a bustergophechiduckneaealcockidgeoverwingailusharkolanbler (originally called a Rôti Sans Pareil, or "Roast without equal") - a bustard stuffed with a turkey, a goose, a pheasant, a chicken, a duck, a guinea fowl, a teal, a woodcock, a partridge, a plover, a lapwing, a quail, a thrush, a lark, an Ortolan Bunting and a Garden Warbler. The final bird is small enough that it can be stuffed with a single olive; it also suggests that, unlike modern multi-bird roasts, there was no stuffing or other packing placed in between the birds. This dish probably could not be recreated in the modern era as many of the listed birds are now protected species.
-This was extracted from the wikipedia entry on Turduckin
either way we need to be accepting of TurDuckin. yeah, everyone loves a turkey, but turkeys are just a lil too straight laced for me. i'm a round the way girl, and we all have murky pasts and sure people have misconceptions about us all....but we should embrace the TurDuckin, just like we do our wayward stripper cousin.
