Check this video that Trey Songz put together for his song “LOL ”. The vid is comprised of submissions from his fans, and I freakin’ love it! It’s almost genius, don’tcha think? Kinda like TLC’s Fanmail album. I hope everyone in the video copped his album!

I’ve always noticed it, but now it’s becoming more and more apparent and used more rampantly…THE WORD HATER IS SOOOOO OVERUSED!
When I’m at work, “These fools hatin’ on me!” When I’m listening to conversations, “Man, they was hatin’!” On Twitter, Facebook and any other social site, “Oh, they just hatin.”
I’ve got bad news, yall. Most of you’s (us) aint that damn fly to have haters. What is there to hate on? The $20,000 a year salary? The bucket parked outside your apartment? The yaki passing as Remy? Hmmm.
Granted there really ARE some very unhappy and bitter people who just love to shit on any and everything that others do (i.e. Sandra Rose and people like her), but for the most part, if someone doesn’t like you, perhaps they SIMPLY don’t like you. Nothing more, nothing less. Everybody don’t like everybody. And that’s okay. It doesn’t mean you’re being hated on.
Maybe your social skills are lacking.
If someone says you can’t sing…maybe you can’t.
If someone thinks you dress wack…you just might.
If someone thinks you’ve got a stank, uppity attitude…maybe you might wanna actually do a self-assessment.
It’s funny cause I was reading the tweets last night about the Soul Train Awards, and though most of the tweets were negative (I think they were mostly for laughs), I noticed that almost ALL the tweets about Erykah Badu were positive. Fantasia-positive. Chrisette- positive. Which means what? They were on their shit. And people had to give them that. The ones that weren’t on point got thrown under the bus. Was it hate or was it accurate?
I think a chick who gets genuine hate is Beyonce. Who can deny that she’s beautiful, insanely talented, a hard worker and on her shit?! Only a hater (lol). You could just simply say you don’t care for her…but don’t take props away. That’s a sidebar (lol), but I say that to say this: she actually has something to “Hate” on if you wanna hate. The general public, not so much.
So let’s use that word a little less, folks. People may be jealous. People may dislike you. They might not eff with ya…but please…give “they hatin” a rest! If I do have any haters, I’m not even aware of ‘em….Just my lil 2 cent random thought of the day.
Here’s some behind the scenes footage for my homie Bertell’s first single/video “She Bad” off his upcoming album Goin’ Hard due out 1st Quarter 2010. Cheers to the hustla!

This coming Thursday is not only my birthday (feliz, feliz!), but I’m also going to be performing! This’ll be at The Atlanta Bench, 602 Marietta St, Atlanta GA 30313. There’s a $5 cover, free drinks all nite, and free food (which I can’t partake of, because it’s BBQ & swine and I’m a veggie-head , but it may work for YOU!) & live performances! Come celebrate with ya girl! Show at 10, party after. Fun times indeed.
Ok, it’s no secret that I’m a total clothes horse. I’ve kinda fallen into the Acceptable-In-Atlanta fashion club, though, but after visiting this fanTABulous fashion website (I’m not sharing! Me and DanniFresh agreed it should remain on the low-low, lol), I’M A FREE BISH, BABY! Man, I’m so about to go thrifting next week and get my style game back on and poppin. Ya know, the game that got me best dressed in High School all them years (LOL!).
One of the chicks, Trang, on the nameless website has a sick SICK fashion point of view, and it reminds me of a girl I once knew back in the day. When I was more quirky and didn’t really give a rat’s patoot what people thought about what I wore. I’m still kinda that way, but “growing up” sometimes make you feel like you should “look grown up.” But as my honey says, “What is someone your age supposed to dress like?” Great question. Trang’s like my long lost fashion twin/muse, and she’s unknowingly smacked me into getting my mojo back. Thanks, shawty!
I actually have elements of pretty much all these outfits in my wardrobe already (except that last skirt….which is sooo friggin hot!). Time to play!

Yes, ma’am, Gaga! Yessss indeed! I soooo cannot wait for 11/23 to cop her re-release/new release The Fame Monster (this video is the 1st single for it) and I DEFINITELY need her tour date in my life. She’s giving me vocal. Fashion. Imagery. Artistry. Fantasy. EVERYTHING! So inspired, I am.
