GOSSIP GIRL LOVE

I have already publicly declared by girl crush on Blake Lively (see here!), but I just have to note that she looked absolutely stunning on last nights episode of Gossip Girl. I love her gown!

That short dress with the sheer cover is gorgeous! I need to cop me something like that ASAP!

black girls rock!

Black Girls Rock! was an award show/program, which aired last night on BET basically celebrating Black Girls who Rock. I commend the creator of the show. It did a great job of showcasing strong, powerful black women and celebrating their achievements. I even felt a little better about myself while I was watching it. HAHA

My favorite performances were Keri Hilson- Breaking Point

why do we listen to the music we do?

In class today we were discussing music...what is it exactly, what kind of music do we listen to and why do we choose to listen to the types of music we listen to? And it got me thinking, why do I listen to some of the stuff I listen to? In psychology there are studies done where troubled kids watch nurturing programs longer than normal kids, because its an element of life that is missing for them? I wonder if thats the same with music, do I listen to R&B to satisfy the hopeless romantic in me? But then why would I wanna listen to songs like 'No Hands' by Waka Flocka or even Tip Drill by Nelly. Maybe it has something to do with escape. Music can help you escape to another place or enable you to embody another kind of personality. B.M.F. by Rick Ross can bring out the "goon" in you, just like Unthinkable by Alicia Keys can bring out the "simp" in you. Music can take you to an alternate world. Or possibly better articulate the thoughts and feelings going inside your own head. Maybe thats it, maybe we listen to what we do because we take it to heart and feel comforted by the fact that there are other people who feel and experience the same exact things we feel and experience. Maybe it's all of these reasons. Just a random thought.

All i know is

Music makes me high

the perfect mistake

Artists are often just that....artistic. They may have talents in more than one area of expertise, such as music, clothing, production...etc etc. Most recently Kanye West has produced his movie, Runaway, which I still havent brought myself to watch yet...I mean I get that he is a revolutionary in the music world and blah blah blah blah, but I just get the impression that its gonna be a 30 minute music video...and I'm not intrigued. But I'll get around to it.

Anyways, Erk the Jerk, (he sings the song 'I Just Wanna F*ck You Right Here') also has a history of producing. He has produced the last two videos for his "pre-album" EP. I really liked his short film out entitled "The Perfect Mistake."Although it's concept was similar to Drake's "Find your Love" video, I really like it. I'm no cinematography expert, but I like what I see. I mean, the talent lies in the fact that he produced it himself, which to me in pretty dope. I'm also loving his other video 'Anything'. Gotta love the diversity of girls in the vid. #teamdarkskin -_- haha just playin. But seriously, check out both videos!
