Fashion Night Out 2009

This year September 10,2009 was the first installment of Fashion Night Out. Which was basically different designers throwing mini soirees at their stores or selected locations to showcase new collections, serve beverages,and just bring people together to celebrate the start of Fashion week. I'm not a fashion guru like "MOST" of New York, but when I got wind of Sean Jean aka Diddy celebrating Fashion Night Out at his Sean Jean 5th avenue store, no disrespect but I didn't give a damn about anything else.Hot 97 was in the building Dj'n in the window, Ciroc was pouring like water, well dressed people just enjoying each other. Special guests Terrence J (106 &Park) and Terry Lundgren(actor). What more could I ask for? Towards 9:30 Anna Wintour (original Devil Wears Prada and editor and chief of American VOUGE) and Diddy himself stormed the hell out of me! Just reassuring me that Diddy has been and will always be my idol.

I Love Hip Hop!

Tonight I had the pleasure to attend a party for "Diesel's" new fragrance "Only The Brave" at Capitale over on Bowery. Venue was well put together and had a special performance by the face of the fragrance. Common!!! Rapping new joints and old joints and even blessing us with a freestyle that was bananas. Proving to those who didn't really follow him that he is "REAL HIP HOP". He made girls clinch their pearls and dudes [Like me] want to run to the nearest gym! I truly enjoyed it and wouldn't mind seeing him preform again. Lots of Energy and interaction with the crowd! Kudos to Diesel for a well put-together event.

Ps-Fellas this cologne's a panty dropper! [Trey songz voice] bwhahaha Must Cop!

Asher Roth Feat. Miss Keri Baby!

Keri Hilson has been doing a lot of features lately, Right?
Not going to front when I watched the Video the first time I thought it was somewhat cheesy but hey it's all about versatility and I give kudos not only to Keri Hilson for doing a video that one might not expect her too. But to Asher for pulling one of the sexiest joints in the industry to be on his record. [High Five]




Asher Roth Feat. Keri Hilson- She don't wanna man

PS- Keri can we please get the "Slow Dance" video I'm fiening over here. Thnx!

In Remembrance...

8 years ago today, the music industry lost a beautiful, and talented woman Aaliyah Dana Haughton. She opened doors for todays female R&B talent Rihanna and Ciara, to name a few. Gone but NEVER forgotten. (January 16, 1979- August 25, 2001)

New Song [Cry] By Chris Brown

Sorry for the pause in-between posts, but I'm back with a new song [Cry] by Chris Brown entitled "Hallow". Now i'm sure, the first thing you want to be critics are thinking is "He is talking about Rihanna", being that the song is about him LEAVING a girl, I don't know if she inspired the song. I do feel as though some of the lyrics he's singing about can be referenced back to the incident, he's human and Rihanna is BAD! nonetheless I'm happy CB is leaking and giving his fans new music.

Keep your head up CB.

Heard it's supposed to be an action packed event too. The event is usually 1-8pm but tomorrow the hours are 1-10pm. Stoked. Looking forward to see whose going to pop up!

Spotted: Tyra Banks

I'm going to take credit and state that I got "Most" of my friends hooked on CW's hit television show Gossip Girl. This season on GG Tyra Banks will be showing us her acting skills once again. Tyra Banks will be playing the role of an actress (Ursula Nyquist) who Serena (Blake Lively) must control. Extremely stoked for the new season, and to see Tyra's acting skills again. Last time I remember her acting was on the Fresh Prince of Bel Air when she played the hood chick from Philly "Jackie". I'm sure she won't be bringing anything hood to Gossip Girl ( at least I hope not) New season is set to air on October 5. Stoked!

:SIDEBAR: I always felt I should be the token black kid on GG and I still hold true to that dream!

YIKES! Mary Poppins.

Slim Shady in my opinion not only disrespected but embarrassed the S%#T out of Mariah Carey (cannon if your nasty) on his most recent diss record "Warning". It's crazy how he is coming at her BUT, she should have never "went balls out" and played him in her obsessed video. No matter how many times she says she "wasn't" trying to portray Emienm we all know the truth. Also knowing EM is known for his diss records and disrespectful lyrics. C'mon if he talked about the mother of his child and his mother any type of way, what makes Mariah think she isn't bait for his ignorance? In all fairness Mariah lost this one and should "NOT" try and rebuttal this record. I hope and pray she doesn't let her bodyguard/helper/husband Nick Cannon say or put out anything regarding the record either. Just let it fade to black....

PS-Is that really MC's voice at the end of the record? I can't...

All Black Everything!

Last Tuesday I had the opportunity to attend a Rad Hourani event @ the SoHo Grand Hotel. With a very chic yet edgy atmosphere we previewed new pieces for the fall. A lot of the pieces were black and shades a grey and a little white here and there, everything I observed was different, something I've never seen before, VERY creative. I fell in love with the color "BLACK" all over again, such a powerful, but chic color don't you think?

Kudos to Rad Hourani, you just gained a new customer

The trendsetter herself! I have no issue with this picture, I've already heard people making comments about her undescribable scarf on her head. I LOVE IT! It's different and just keep your eyes open, some "swagger Jacker" will try and rock it and probably look a mess. [Moving Forward] I'm pissed because I work in 580 broadway (The building she's exiting in the above pic) where was I? I need to start taking more breaks downstairs I swear!

In About 3yrs Holla At Me "KeKe Palmer"

KeKe Palmer paid a visit to Conan O'Brien looking absolutely stunning for an *ahem* (15yr. old). They discussed her upcoming 16th birthday Aug. 26th and how she can finally get her license and "DATE". My issue with this is, she seemed way to eager to start dating. KeKe is extremely to beautiful to become a "Cereal Dater" I want her to be that chick that dudes can't get because their worried her father is going to shoot them! I had the chance to meet her at the 34th annual Gracie awards back in June 09, she is definitely making a name for herself in Hollywood at a very young age, and if she keeps looking like that when she does hit 18 I may have to snatch that up! No Bull.

So Is This What We're Using Twitter for?

Recently rapper Bow Wow exposed some photos via "TwitPic" of him and what seems to be some half naked chick. Looks to me as if they just popped off in the shower and decided to share their freakiness with his fans. Really? Come on Bow, I know you don't give a F#%K but lets have a little couth sir!

PS- Shad who is that girl? Just curious hehehe!
