Michael Jackson

Sadly, I heard the tragic news like everyone else this past week. Michael Jackson, the King of Pop has passed away at age 50. I believe the saddest part regarding the death of Michael Jackson is the fact that for the last 15 years the media and news world were dehumanizing him and projecting the image of him negatively. They are soley the cause of the whole "Wacko Jacko" shit and now that he has left us, he is an icon, legend, king of pop, revolutionary to music...It's funny how the media can build you up...tear you down...then honor you when you die.

Michael Jackson single handedly made Mtv what it is today, revolutionized music videos and he was a leading voice when it comes to social causes and issues all around the globe. Songs like "They Don't Really Care About Us", "Black or White", "Earth Song", "Man in the Mirror", and "We are the World" have done so much to bring a cease to racism, classism, sexism, and much more. Michael Jackson was one of the greatest. Schamon!

Come on Derrick!

Derrick why, why, why?.. Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to come down on the black man. However, what the hell is he doing? NBA rookie of the year, role model for many young aspiring basketball players in Chicago, star player for the NBA Chicago Bulls throwing up gang signs and perpetuating stereotypes. I guess it just shows that no matter how much money or fame you get...some people just can't leave the hood. Gangs in Chicago are no joking matter. Just ask the families of dozens of students who lost their lives to gang violence this past school year.

Kanye Chicago Benefit Concert

First off, I'm mad. I found out about the concert last night while i was at work! I know Ye put on a great show. I got a chance to see him at the Glow in the Dark Tour and he is non stop on the stage. However, this was a stay in school benefit concert to award CPS (Chicago Public School)Students. I believe it was apart of the Kanye West Foundation held at the Chicago Theater.

Also here in Chicago and at the concert was America’s Next Top Model Monique Calhoun. She was looking good.

Neyo makes Chrisette 's Epiphany hot

4.0/5.0

Chrisette Michele's debut album I AM was one of the best R&B albums of 2007, but it didnt give her much commercial success. I've been following Chrisette for a while..she's amazing! I really like soulful music and she delivers. I'm not even a big fan of Neyo..i mean..don't get me wrong he is very talented, but I like him more as a producer or a writer than an actual artist. He really gives Chrisette a push for this project. I think if you like neo-soul or R&B you'll definently love this album. Support good music! yeah...she's in the loop.

My top 3 (no order):

Blame it on me

On My Own

Epiphany

So i just got finish doing this phone interview for this job that i am trying to get with this Charter School....I HATE job interviews!!, but I think I did a good job. They said if they're intrested, they'll contact me in early/mid July.

Rihanna is the shit. period....She has single handedly influenced almost every girl to go for a shorter hairstyle...at least that's what I think. Her fashion sense (or her stylist) is incredible beyond words. Rumors has it that she's doing a song with the overnight rap success, Drake. Other rumors state that a song is not the only thing they're doing together. lol. I think it's a great look for Drake, especially since his buzz is growing by the minute. Chris Brown...wamp wamp..

Speaking of Drake..The guy has skills. Rapper/Singer/Actor and has the poetintial to be a very good rapper...not one of these clowns you see snapping and poppin for a club hit. I don't think he'll fit well with Lil Wayne's Young Money Label...maybe it's just me. I would rather see him with Kanye's label G.O.O.D Music...or Def Jam Records.

Sexiest Sandals ever!
