"Show me ya teeth."
True. So very true. This past weekend, I came to a sad realization. It was one of those epihany's that occurs when you are in deep thought contemplating the many different aspects of your life. Specifically, the one about love. I suddenly realized, that maybe I have been making one of those mistakes that many of us do quite frequently, and that being confusing lust with love.
Sincerely,

Confused Conformists....
Without a doubt, not many people were head-over-heels for Mrs.Palin and McCain's crew during the 2008 campaign. But if you didn't like Palin during the 2008 campaign, her message for Oprah's audience and the millions of viewers sitting behind television screens were: "It was really the McCain campaign PR staff that you didn't like. The real Sarah, you would like just fine!" During this Oprah show, she spent most of her time blaming her campaign staffers who she says "cosseted her, handled her, and micromanaged her and her family as to what to say, who to talk to , what to wear and even what to eat." Lady puuuuhleeeezzz. Have you no backbone? Based on these statements she has made, I am so very pleased to know that the worst mistake ever in history to be committed was not done, and that is the electing of McCain into office with Palin as vice president. TO ALL THE FEMINISTS OUT THERE...would you be okay with having a vice president that would adhere to whatever an administration was telling her to do? A woman that would let her family be controlled and handled? A woman that would act as a puppet? A woman, yet again with no backbone?
Excuse me? Did little Miss conservative make a boo boo?
First and foremost, I would like to say that anybody who believes that another person's rights should be taken away from them because of sexual preference, religious beliefs...etc is downright outrageous and despicable. Secondly, if you want to stand strong to a certain belief (no matter how bogus it may be as in Prejean's belief) then do not be a hypocrite. If you believe in what Ms. Prejean stands for, then you should not be parading around with nude sex tapes either. Ms. Prejean recently made an even bigger fool of herself on Larry King Live when she refused to answer the question of a gay supporter of the USA pageants. Check out the clip:
Now what do you think?
And thats all folks,

What has happened to this generation?
Boy A: "I cant work with you man! If I work with you we will fail. I'm not that smart man."
Boy B: "Man, I cant work with you either! I'm trying to pass! Nigga u dumb."
Boy A: "You dumb too!"
Suddenly, Boy A turns to me and says "AYE...u smart?"...
(Now, by this point I was thoroughly annoyed with the conversation these boys were having. Not only were they calling eachother stupid but they were calling themselves stupid! Like....what!?!?)
Me: "Are you serious with that question? As if I'm going to answer no. Too late, I have a partner already."
Boy A: "oooooh."
Here were these two young, African American men that were not only complaining about the classwork, but also belittling themselves. It is almost as if todays generation has forgotten the extreme measures that were taken to even make it possible for them to recieve an education. Where is the drive? Where is the motivation? The willpower? Has today's generation lost it all?

The Blueprint 3
Fortunately, I'm not the only one loving it. The Blueprint 3 (HOV's 11th album) made #1 album on the The Billboard 200 which succeeded him past Elvis Presley as the solo act with the most #1 albums in the charts history.
I Love Weirdness
Hmm...Im thinking she was trying to go for maybe a..."bloody mary, holy virgin" kind of look??? I dont know. But you go head GaGa with your weird self! In this picture, shes sporting a red laced cat suit with a matching choker and a red thong to match. Anyway, during her appearance at Fashion week, GaGa announced a joint US tour with Kany West. This tour is called the "Fame Kills" tour and it kicks off November 10 in Phoenix and goes on to canadian venues continuing onto January of next year. Kanye told the Rolling Stone magazine of their awesome pairing: "She's talented and so incredible, that shes not even an opening act. Were doing it together, with no opening act."
Lets give it up for the uniqueness that is Lady GaGa shall we?

When You make a Mistake and youre a Celebrity...(specifically a black celeb)
It has been reported on TMZ, Media Takeout, Access Hollywood and CNN that Chris Brown had said "he doesnt remember assaulting Rihanna". Heres what Chris had said in response to all of the drama:
"There have been reports on the Internet that I didn't remember what happened that night with Rihanna. I want to try and set things straight.That 30 seconds of the interview they used of me was taken from a one hour interview during which that same question was asked something like 4 or 5 times -- and when you look at the entire interview you will see it is not representative of what I said. The first four times – or how ever many times it was - I gave the same answer -- which was that I didn't think it was appropriate for me to talk about what happened that night. I said it was not right for me and it really wasn't fair to Rihanna. The fifth time – or whatever it was – I just misspoke. I was asked, "Do you remember doing it?" and I said, "No."Of course I remember what happened. Several times during the interview, my mother said that I came to her right afterwards and told her everything. But it was and still is a blur. And yes, I still can't believe it happened because it is not me or who I am or is what happened like anything I have ever done before. As I have said several times previously, I am ashamed of and sorry for what happened that night and I wish I could relive that moment and change things, but I can't. I take full responsibility for my actions. What I have to do now is to prove to the world that this was an isolated incident and that is not who I am and I intend to do so by my behavior now and in the future."-Chris Brown
ok....blah,blah, blah this crap is boring now. We are living in such a judgemental society. Point blank, and basically what has been happening since february with this case is that Chris Brown has been turned into a "poster child" for Domestic Violence. Quite frankly, domestic violence has been going on for awhile now. The "wake-up" call should of happened awhile ago people.
ok this was annoying and the last blog that I will ever post about the "Chris and Rihanna fiasco"
Peace and Love<3

Beauty in the City
Among all the chaos, the laughter, the crying, the cheers, the yelling, the dancing, the music, the jeers, the flashing lights, the constant action, the crowds and the occassional cop car sirens...there is this silent beauty that exists in the nature of the city. It can be seen in the architecture, the plentiful and vibrant colors displayed across storefront windows, and even the different pigments of skin that roam the city streets. There is a natural beauty to this world that I value and i find illuminated in the city. This place of diversity, love pain, joy, and heartache has given me many lessons in life. Its hard for me to not have some kind of passion for it (and in no way or form is this crapping on any other area. I just love mines the most. sorry). So on July 4th, I stepped back and captured the many glimpses of life in the city, that inspired me and made me think about life in general. And now the adventures of this Kung Fu Chick named Ashleigh and yours truly....Lolita<3>
I told you New York wasn't full of pissed off people. Wherelse can you find people walking around with boards saying "free hugs"? And hey, I love hugs.

Envictus
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever God may be from my unconquerable soul.
Under the fell clutch of circumstance,
my head is bloody but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears looms but the horror of the shade, and yet,
the menace of the years finds, and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how straight the gate,
or how charged with punishment the scroll,
I am the MASTER of my fate,
the CAPTAIN of my soul."
The Captain of Her Soul, Lolita

Presenting....EarthGang
EarthGang consists of two young men by the names of Johnny Venus and E. Hobbes who currently attend Hampton University. How did they form this awesome duo? In the words of J. Venus: "We went to the same high school and decided to create the Music Group EarthGang and under the shade tree out side of the school's complex. I think our styles contrastically compliment each other and our musical taste, which is all over the world from Duke Ellington to The Clash helps us stay well rounded. We're not your typical rap group or your "rap" group for that matter. We want our music to transcend genres, culture, and time. Alot of fellow artists we come into contact with can be very narrow sighted. Like their ambitions are to only take over the "rap" game or the U.S. We plan to effect the world not only through music but through film, art, literature; the whole nine." Not your typical "rap" group? Not in the least! Influenced by artists such as Prince, 3-6 Mafia, Queen, Wolfmother, UGK, Chicago, Gill Scott Heron, The Fugees and The Beatles (which are just to name a few), EarthGang brings the music world a refreshing and unique sound that I truly can say I am a witness to. When I first heard their song "EG Rock" I was happy to hear a different sound than the usual "Rap" flavor thats consistently being packaged and shown in the media everyday.
Why am I supporting EarthGang? The music industry is in dire need of talented and unique individuals with vision, and that is EarthGang. It is ashame when unique artists with a brave, new sound get swept under the rug for not conforming to the norms of the music industry. For these reasons I support EarthGang. They bring the music game the full package. Not to mention, I support the fellow goal oriented, African American man. There is probably alot more I could say, but I'm going to let their music speak for themselves. My personal fave..."Ms Evette" =]
