The Votes are In: Top 5 Albums of 2011?


The year's almost over!  I took the liberty of asking my fellow counterparts a survey of what they thought were the Top 5 albums of the 2011 year.  It was interesting to see everyone’s view!  Here's a few of the responses....

3.  Un-Dun- The Roots
4.  Ambition- Wale ..."To me the production was way better than J Cole"
5.  Cole World: Sideline Stories- J. Cole

2. .
3.  Ambition- Wale
4.  Maybach Music Group Presents: Self Made, Vol.1
5. No number five for him.  What he listed was disqualified by lack of information ctfuu


Fife









Fife, like myself, was the only one who thought a mixtape should get some shine as if it were an album.  A rule breaker.. which is why he's my pal.

 
1.


2.
3. Watch the Throne- Jay-Z|Kanye West 
  4. N/A
5. N/A

 

And last, but not least,... MY LIST.  Now, I did not have a specific order.  This was solely because ALL put me in a different zone and give me a different feel.  I like them all for different reasons.  As I mentioned above... I, also, chose to give a few mixtapes some shine.  I felt they had potential to be classic albums, in my book... just like Kush x OJ.  So with that being said... here are MY top 5 albums of 2011....

 








A great year for music this was.  Until next year...
xoxo!  I'll leave you all with this!

Keep It Gee| Big Sean feat. 2 Chainz


My life is nothin’ but a G thang…




Last week… I saw link posts to Sean’s new song, Keep It Gee.  Shortly after, I saw tweets from him saying that it was NOT the official version and the song was NOT finished yet.   Out of respect for my bew, I decided not to post.  Until now… He tweeted the link yesterday announcing the “official” version.  I love this one.  Can’t wait for the new album.  #IDoIt….#Boi

Video: Martians vs Goblins| The Game x Lil' Wayne x Tyler the Creater

I’m surprisingly a fan of most of Tyler’s music.  His feature on here was only right…#Butchery.  This would’ve been great to drop around Halloween, but I guess The Game had other things in mind.

Although, he only pens the hook, I wonder why Lil’ Wayne wasn’t in the video o_O He normally appears in the vids of all his features. 

 Hmm… nevertheless.. here’s another single/visual from the R.E.D album. 
#Lehgo


Kelis Embodies.. 'HUNGER'

She's Baaacckk! 

Recently, a wild and eccentric photo op Kelis, goes back to displaying her high fashion & classic side in the current issue of HUNGER magazine.  She looks amazing!  Expect to hear new music from K.. VERY... soon. 



Video: Say It To My Face| Ludacris feat. Meek Mill

Told another nxgga...
So he told another nxgga...
and it got around…


In continuance of promoting his mixtape: 1.21 Gigawatts… back to the first time.. and probably the “beef” publicity.. Luda drops the visuals for “Say It To My Face”… … a diss track to member of Field Mob, Shawn Jay, as well as a few subliminals. 


I think this vid is WAY better than the one he dropped for the first diss track, Badaboom Simplistic… but Dope.  I like the tone it sets.  Fits perfect with the song.  Take a looksee…

My Christmas was....

Christmas 2011




First off... I hope everyone who celebrates had a great Christmas!  Those who don't... I hope you had a great day!

Normally... The holidays (thanksgiving and especially christmas) bring my mood down.  I'm more of a grinch, although I find joy in buying my family tons of presents, and scrooge etc.  But surprisingly.. this year.. It was completely different.  I had been like that the entire month...however... when the 23rd came and I made my FIRST trip to the store for presents (lol)... the joy of buying the gifts got me in the spirit some.

My family isn't normally around each other, contrary to belief, the entire day of Christmas.  It's a little different from most traditional families.  To my surprise... this year was completely different.  After church service... I went back to my parent's to give the gifts etc.  Nothing made me happier than to see the look on my brother's face when he opened the bag and saw his pair of Concords.  He felt they were impossible to get with the foolishness this year surrounding them.. but I surprised him greatly.  That made me happy.  My mom and dad were both happy with their presents.  It went totally well.




Family I hadn't seen in years came over to my house for christmas breakfast, after I left my parents'.  We actually ended up having a family christmas dinner later.  I received my best surprise soon after that was over and I returned home, that I would have never expected.  I was completely overwhelmed with the day.  It was absolutely wonderful.  I am overly greatful that.

Women's Empowerment Wednesdays...

And you'd like to find a way...
to show the things that words can't say...




In lieu of all holidays this time of year...
Give back.  Make someone smile.  Give Love. 
I don't think we, as women, sometimes realize how important we are and how much we affect other's lives.  Make a difference this week.  Stay beautiful Ladies :-)  Happy Holidays!
xoxo
