HOLLA AT ME

Finally..

what you Young Money and Chris Brown fans have been waiting for. Presented by DJ Ill Will and DJ Rockstar, Fan of a Fan highlights a 20 track mixture of solo Chris Brown and Tyga in addition to many that include both artists. Another intriguing aspect to the tape is that Brown steps out of his usual R&B box and tries his hand at rapping as well..

DOPE DOPE DOPE..
I have nothing more to say!!

BRINGING SOUL BACK!

From the very first track on her 2005 debut album Leela James has captured the gritty, emotion-drenched essence of artists like Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Mavis Staples, Marvin Gaye and has made it her mission to bring it all back - pushing the music forward with a fresh, contemporary perspective that remains faithful to the music's deep and powerful roots.

My Soul, set for release on May 25, 2010, marks Leela James' debut on Stax Records, a division of Concord Music Group. The move to Stax - the legendary home of some of the greatest soul and R&B artists of the past half-century..

"The title of the album pretty much says it all," she explains. "I just wanted to go into the studio and do what moved me at the time, and not think about it too much or not allow it to be something that was too planned. That's what great soul music has always been about from the very beginning - something very raw, very authentic and very true."

Mrs. James..

Back Alive, Bring Back, Bring It, It Back.. She Brings Soul Back Alive!!

KELIS: LADY GAGA AND RIHANNA ARE SWAGGER JACKERS!

Kelis says that Lady Gaga and Rihanna have ripped off her style.. She's not mad at them for 'swagger-jacking' her style. Instead, Kelis says she's a bit flattered..

Kelis says..
“I’ve been around for a long time and that’s what artists do; we take from each other and we recycle,” she states. “And quite frankly, it may not even be them. It might be stylists that have been around as long as I have and are like, ‘Hey, let’s recycle this on these younger artists.’”

One sentence: Kelis was first.. Nothing more, nothing less..

RA RA RA RA RA, OOH MY! IS THIS GAGA?

My Little Pony, My Little Pony.. How has the world been treating you? My Little Pony, My Little Pony.. Have your dreams been coming true?

WHAT'S UP DUCK?

DUCKIE BROWN FALL 2010



ENGLAND HERE WE COME..

"The work was unapologetically Anglophile and emerged out of nostalgia, the Duckie Brown designers said. “It was about me, England, my family and it was about the boys that I went to school with,” co-designer Steven Cox said. “But doing it in the way that we would do it.”

“We just thought, ‘Let’s do all things English,’ “ co-designer Daniel Silver added. “We just went with it. Although we take liberties because we’re Duckie Brown, there was a very strict sense of the rude boy. "
