R-E-S-P-E-C-T: J Cole and Drake


in 2010 we are fortunate to see two top rappers such as Drake and J Cole not have animosity between them.  The comparisons with their music and physical appearance never seem to end with these two. speculation of beef was rampant earlier this year but these two quickly put those rumors to rest in order to advance hip-hop further. We hope that there will be a collaboration in the works soon!

Sweetharts Choice: Maybelline Lash Stiletto

this mascara is awesome! Maybelline's lash stiletto is gret for lengthening and spreading your lashes. it doesn't clump up. it actually separates and fans out your lashes. the only drawback is that it does not really volumize your lashes. it doesnt make them look thicker and fuller.

From Ashes and Rubble, Onto The Road of Triumph


On this day 9 years ago, all of our lives were forever changed by the terrorist attacks of 9/11.  to all of those who passed away, and their remaining loved ones we pray for them all. But, we can all learn a lesson from this. we must find the root of our hate and intolerance towards eachother and weed that hate out of our lives. if we do so, we will then achieve truth, peace, and happiness. without hate, intolerannce, and violence, we can all lead successful lives and enjoy our short time on the earth that much more.

life, liberty, peace, truth, harmony and love for all

Malibu Barbie vs. Harajuku Barbie

Why are these two successful and talented rappers feuding?

Lil' Kim rose to fame in the 1990's she's known for her affair with rapper Biggie Smalls, and her hyper sexual lyrics, as well as hits such as "How Many Licks", "Crush on You", "Shut Up", "Whoa", "Lighters Up", etc.

Nicki Minaj is 2010's rookie rapper of the year. and she's the only female rapper who's had a hit single in a  few years. probably since Eve's "Tambourine" in 2006. she's currently signed to Ca$h Money Records and her album "Pink Friday" is due on November 23rd of this year.

These to have so much in common. they both wear colored wigs. they are both very sexually explicit. so if they're so similar, why are they fighting?

 Lil' Kim feels that Nicki Minaj took subliminal, direct, and indirect shots at her. Kim claims that Nicki stole her style as well. the colored wigs, the entire Barbie movement, her sexuality, etc. Kim also claims Nicki has insulted her through her lyrics. Also Kim claims that Nicki said F*ck you to all of the Lil' Kim fans on twitter. and that she took a subliminaljab at Lil' Kim by sayin 'Did I kill a Queen" on Diddy's Record "Hello/Good Morning."

Nicki has remained relatively silent about the feud. but her labelmate Drake came to her defense in an recent interview, saying that Kim is "just upset" and that "Nicki Minaj has paid homage to her."

Whatever the real reason for this feud is, one thing is for certain, "it isn't helping the advancement of women in hip hop, and it's just embarassing." claims fellow female rapper Trina.

Kimora Leaving Baby Phat?!

Why? Why? Why?
The legend, mother, wife, and mogul is leaving her signature brand Baby Phat. she say that she wants to focus on newer business prospects. no word if the legendary urban clothing brand will be discontinued, or who will be taking over in her place. We will greatly miss Kimora and she's an inspiration to all of us young women. :'(

Drake = Self Made = Certified Legend

Mr. Untouchable! Drake is the undeniable man of te hour. this Canadian native rose to fame by playing Jimmy Brooks on the critially acclaimed drama "Degrassi" he left the show and persued rapping. later, seasoned and legendary rapper Lil' Wayne discovered him and signed him to Cash Money Recordings.
Drake has definetley paid his dues by creating such hits as"Best I Ever Had", "Successful", "Over", "Fancy", "Forever", etc. Drake also went from a highly anticipated artist to critically acclaimed when he released his fisrt studio album "Thank Me Later" on June 15th. the album went platinum in only 5 weeks!!! he will also be performing at the 2010 VMA's this Sunday at 9pm on MTV!!! which all of his fans can't wait to see.  i definetly see a legend in the making. you go Drake!
