Music Plus Visuals Galore!

I was waiting for you... T.I. :)
I would just like state that if T.I. can put out amazing songs like this about turning your life around before he heads to jail...imagine what will come out of him actually being there for a year and a day...

"Dead and Gone"



The visuals on these two are amazing. Took my breath away. Kanye's video had me watching with my mouth open like wow. I wanna learn how to do that...for free! lol

Grammy Praises, Questions, Comments, Concerns


BEST PERFORMANCE!:T.I. and JT did a stupendous job!!! :) (TI's last performance b4 jail??? :(..noooo!!!...thats prob why he put so much feeling into it.)

Whitney Houston is back!!!! Pretty!

Chris Martin is so dope!

Katy Perry did her thing! I think she really does feel girls.

I love Jennifer Hudson and she deserved that award, however, that dress did not do her justice. Didnt the upper part look like a bib you use at a restaurant?

Coldplay deserved every award they got! :)

Um...I only know one song by Adele...but I guess she can win best new artist over Duffy and Jazmine Sullivan :-/.

Did Justin Timberlake try to tell a joke when introducing Al Green and fail miserably because no one laughed???

Jonas Brothers and Stevie Wonder's performance was random and a failure.

Blink 182 back together!!! (didnt know they broke up but okay...)

Why did M.I.A do that? That outfit did not do her pregnant belly justice!

So thanks to Jay-Z, Kanye, and Lupe it is okay for all boys to not cut their hair for over 2 months!

Men in suits are sexy!

Why does Ne-Yo always have beautiful dates????

I'm happy Lil Wayne Performed Tie My Hands with Robin thicke!

So thank God Kanye was not a Divo at the Grammy's this year.

John Mayer for "Say"!!! Well Deserved!!!! (was the theme for this blog for a while...hey...i reinstate...still is!)

So I dont think Carter 3 deserved Best Rap album.

Album of the year???....

I would like to say that I am definite the Grammy's missed out on some GREAT performances by Chris Brown and Rihanna ...all because of this "ike turner wanna be" foolishness!!!

Innocent Until Proven Guilty


I dont know what is going on with this whole Chris Brown thing. I just know that around 5pm my sister tells me that in LA , eyewitness news reported that LAPD was looking for Chris Brown on charges for felony battery. I was like Nuh uh! (I actually did say Nuh uh cuz I thought she was telling a lie). Then I turn on my TV and I see the same thing! (but on Merced News haha.) Anywho, the story I got was that last night after leaving the pre-grammy party Chris Brown got into an argument with an "unidentified woman" and that it was reported that the woman suffered injuries and Chris Brown fled the scene. Im thinking...oh my this is some crazy stuff! Chris Brown isnt the person that goes around beating chicks...is he??? So my first answer is....must be self defense from a crazed fan. So yea of course he cant perform at the Grammy's. But whoa...neither did Rihanna because she was in a "car accident"???

Then I start reading and hearing stuff like...

- Chris Brown and Rihanna left the pre-grammy party together, got in an argument and he beat her up.
- Chris Brown and Rihanna got in a car accident together and Chris got out the car and beat up the lady that hit them.
- Chris Brown found out Rihanna had herpes and threw her out the car and beat her cuz she gave it to him.
-Chris Brown was attacked by a crazed fan while arguing with Rihanna...Rihanna fled while Chris Brown fought the girl back and then fled.

LOL...craziness I know...I dont know what to believe...I'm confused...all I am certain is that Rihanna wasnt at the Grammy's and Chris Brown went to jail but posted the 50,000 bail money.

LA Times emphasizes that the 'unidentified woman' is not Rihanna ..."According to the victim (who is NOT Rihanna), she and Chris got into an argument that turned ugly and violent"
-Read more here.

However, TMZ and Perez Hilton say "Chris Brown is being investigated for allegedly assaulting Rihanna after the Clive Davis pre-Grammys tribute event on Saturday night"...and Hilton adds "Nobody messes with our princess Ri Ri...we are gonna fuck up that vile shit-stain of a human being for hitting our Rihanna!!!!!!!"
- Read more here.

While Huffington Post seems to have the whole low down and says the "victim's name was not disclosed, as is routine in such cases"
-Read more here.


So yea...I'm waiting on the whole truth. Hopefully this isnt Rihanna and Chris Browns cry for publicity since they have been out of the spot light for a little over two weeks. SMH

His Soul Lives On

I needed time to write this...I couldnt write this yesterday....I cant imagine what I would have written. I bottled up all my emotions and it all would have all exploded here onto my computer screen. I gave myself a day....allowed my self to gather my thoughts and emotions...let my tears out at random times throughout the day. I dont know..I guess I was waiting for someone to say he came back to life. His heart stopped for a while and now its pumping and he is alive. But no...that isnt how it works. I can make all the excuses in the world and try to run away from the reality of death but nothing will change. God has the power and sadly...the only thing I can do now is remember Diron just the way he was...

I remember in elementary school I would stay and watch the guys play basketball since I lived right around the corner. Diron stayed with the basketball in his hands...whenever I would see him..even in middle school in class he would have the basketball in his hands. He lived and breathed basketball. He would play until they closed the school. I remember one time in elementary, my sister and I stayed so late we it was getting dark and we were scared to walk around the corner to our house. Diron and his little brother walked us since their mother hadnt arrived to pick them up from school yet. Thats another thing..Diron loved his brother ...I really admired that and that made me want an older brother. No matter how into a ball game he was ..he was always looking out for his brother and his brother looked up to him. His #1 audience when Diron told a joke. lol I cant even express how much he loves his mother...omg my heart goes out to her...nothing anyone is goin through can be greater than her pain. I remember onetime during the middle school days I saw Diron at a fair being held by the Forum...we both wanted to get on this ride that spins around and goes up and down at the same time but neither our siblings nor parents wanted to go so we went with each other. I will always remember what he said when the ride was about to begin...we went up...he screamed out "I love you mom!" as though he was scared of being o the ride and we both laughed...then he said "Isnt my mom beautiful?" That was no joke...he wasnt even laughing...just smiling and I thought that was so sweet...he honored his mother.

Our number #1 insider and one of the funniest memories of Diron would be his imitation of our 5th grade teacher at Mrs. Le Blue at 98th street school. She would always smoke and have white crust at the corners of her mouth when she spoke and it would disgust Diron to the max! haha....all of us for that matter. Anywho...who could imitate better than Diron? No one! Even in middle school when I wasnt in a good mood ...Diron would always come up with a joke that would make me laugh. Even about a month ago when I saw him at the knitting factory our insider of Mrs. Le Blue remained when I hugged him and hey said hey and wiped the corner of his mouth he laughed trying to imitate Mrs. Le Blue once more...sad to say that was the last time I would see that impression...

Man! Life is so precious we really have to live for the present. I believe that his heart was too good for this earth....it was needed in heaven. God needed more angels like him. Yea...an angel...a new star in the sky...maybe thats why he sky seemed so bright last night...

Rest in Peace Diron Rivers

Your body is gone but your soul lives on through us. What a great soul you were.


I will miss you.

Grand Slam!

The Best Superbowl Commercial to me was when they announced FREE Breakfast at Denny's mmmhhmmm...no classes Tuesday...gathering the crew and I'm there!:)

#92 & Commercials

James Harrison of the Pittsburg Steelers...

Congrats to his 100-yrd touchdown but this guy has an anger management problem. Why was he attacking Francisco that one time? The ref called it "unnecessary roughness". Man, that was abuse...what is wrong with him? And I heard he slammed a fan on the field before. Looking at him...I get the wife-beater/ girlfriend-beater vibe...yes, definitely a wife-beater/ girlfriend beater.

A Cardinals win would have been better...next time...next time



In other news...is it sad that I laughed hystercally when the koala was punched? lol It was just so unexpected.



This was so cute!:)

Tacky

I sometimes wonder why people do the things they do. What are their intentions? Do they think what they are doing is right? Do you really think...let me just stop. I will let you find out on your own...just keep trying and you will see...lol...you will see. I call it desperate...I call it thirsty...I call it tacky. I can easily be karma and do the same to you...however...the tackiness just isnt my style.Continue...
