New Big Boi: ‘For Your Sorrows’
Posted in Entertainment, music, tagged big boi, for your sorrows, george clinton, too short on September 27, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I love Outkast, but on an individual level, I’ve always been more partial to Andre 3000. I just luv him so much. Speaking of which, just where is this new music you’re supposed to be coming out with Dre?!! But, anyway, “For Your Sorrows,” a new song Big Boi has featuring George Clinton and Too [...]

Here’s Melanie Fiona’s new music video “It Kills Me.”
I’m a big fan of Ms. Fiona because I like her sound, and she has talent. Her debut album, “The Bridge” has already been released internationally, but its U.S. release has been pushed back yet again to November.

I was watching the interview above with female rapper Nicki Minaj for Honey Magazine – one of my fellow J school alumnae edited the video by the way (random shout out over) – and I noticed that Ms. Nicki looked different somehow. I haven’t heard her music, but I’ve seen pictures [...]

I’m easily amused, and I always love a good spoof, so I had to share this. View this spoof of “Run This Town” below, which is actually more entertaining than the real music video.

Why Whitney? Why?

I haven’t talked about Whitney Houston’s comeback on WLLC yet. I’m still feeling pretty meh about her new singles, but overall I won’t get down on Whitney because when you look at where she came from to get to this point, any type of a comeback is still pretty remarkable. So I held back, just [...]

Project Runway is Back!

And I’m excited. Forget all that health care stuff everyone is talking about — my show’s back on the air! Just kidding.
But I really can’t think of another reality show that I love like “Project Runway.” I love it all, from Tim Gunn, to the drama while they’re in the design room, to the highs [...]
Why Won’t They Just Let it Go?

Yet another “Bring It On” movie is coming to DVD this year. But honestly, how many times can you redo the same story line with different people? “Bring It On: Fight to the Finish” just shows how sad Christina Milian’s career has gotten. She’s not even on a level to be considered for my “You’re [...]
