Kid Cudi –> my New Music Crush

Lifestyle

I have a new music crush. For those that don't know a music crush is when I think someone's music is totally dope & want to hear all of it! Some of my current and former music crushes include: Kanye West, Teedra Moses, Beyonce (at one point in time, god I was young! lol), Maroon 5, Lupe Fiasco, Vivian Green, & Raheem Devaughn to just name a few. My music crush is Kid Cudi. I had heard of Kid Cudi a few months ago, my friend was all in hoopla over the song Day & Night ft. Jim Jones. Since I hate everything Jim Jones I refused to listen, but then later I heard Day & Night without him (Jones) and I loved it. But, I still didn't pay Cudi…

Merry Christmas… Bah Humbug

Lifestyle

I have to wish all my readers (however many there may be) a wonderful holiday wish! I'm not the biggest fan of holiday cheer, but everyone needs some. I got in my car tonight and realized I didn't get chance to burn my Xmas cd and it made me sad.. I try to get as much cheer as I can before my family ruins it. Oh well.. Hope you have lots of good times and holiday cheer (a.k.a liquor)!!!

The Sims 3 – My next obsession

Lifestyle

During the summer I was browsing the EA website and saw that in 2009 they would be releasing the Sims 3. For some, that's not big news, but to me-an avid Sim lover since they first came out, this was huge news. All I had to go on was that this one would give the user more control over their individual Sim and the neighborhood. Excited and Thrilled were not enough to cover my feelings. My roommates girlfriend is also an avid Sim'er so I broke the news to her and she was equally as excited. So, since the summer months, it has kind of been off my radar due to it not being released until 2009. Today, or yesterday, I received an email from EA offering a discount because…

Feeding my addiction

Lifestyle

Go DL Hughley! On my mornings new stroll came across this article about CNN giving DL Hughley his own show, some would compare to the Colbert Report or the Daily Show. As you all know, I am a CNN junkie. I watch all the debates on CNN, I catch their morning show, American Morning, I like Larry King even though he's ancient. I love how he makes people slightly uncomfortable in his interviews, LOL. Anywho, Variety reports that the Show will air Saturdays at 10pm and then again on Sunday in the same news slot. Its predicted that they are gearing to appeal to a younger audience as the elections have bought news to a forefront among the new generation. I think, sometimes, that DL boarders the lines between slightly…

Delve a little deeper??

Lifestyle

Ok, so I hijacked the questions from over at SheenV's place.. He does Wednesday Weirdness, and I liked these questions... I might hijack a few more, he just doesn't know it yet! IF you haven't, check him out over there in the blogroll.. its cool stuff! And he loves shoes too!!! LOL Once again, Thanks!!! 1.) Do you think you're approachable? Absolutely! But people might disagree. If I don't know people in a crowd I tend to stay to myself until the ice is broken. Some might take that as unapproachable, but to me its just normal behavior. Often times people say I'm just "acting light-skin" LOL 2.) Out of the two, would you rather be able to predict things before they happened or be able to read minds whenever…

Battle of the Divas! Jennifer Hudson vs. Jazmine Sullivan

Lifestyle

I don't know about some people, but I was excited about Jennifer Hudson's cd being finally released. I was not so excited about Jazmine Sullivan's cd. Not because she can't sing, because she has skills, but because her first single didn't wow me and there was so much hype around her. Everyone was talking about it. I like to be the kind of person that strays from the norm. Now, JHud, is a great singer. Do I think she should have gotten an Oscar for singing in DreamGirls... NO.. but that's not my point.So these two albums came out pretty close together in time, and rather than write seperate reviews, I'm going to compare them. Personally, I think Jaz's album blows Hudson's out the box.. Not for vocal skills but…

The Return of TV!!

Lifestyle

I don't know about everyone else, but this summer kind of sucked in regards to TV. I looked forward to TNTs "The Closer" for so long that when it finally premiered I had over hyped it to myself. But someone reminded me that last night was the season Premiere of the CW's Gossip Girl, which I feel in love with last year during the writers strike. I spent a whole day hogging my roommates desktop so I could watch every episode online until i was caught up. I mean literally, a whole Saturday, I even ate in front of the PC. So after watching the return of Blair Waldorf and Serena Van Der Woodsen I sought a schedule of fall premieres. And I found a good one! Not that I…
