"Three Grandmasters" by Shaolin Park
RESPECT is due where RESPECT is earned and this is just that.
Corey Beanz, Marley and Guap are three guys coming out of the "757", like myself, and together they make rap group Shaolin Park .
I have yet to actually meet the group but am crazy impressed by the work they have put together so far.
This is their first video off their Adult Swim mixtape The Healthpac.

Janelle Monae, happy feet.
Janelle Monae, dancing her happy, singing ass off in her new video Tight Rope feat Big Boi.
Of course, she is staying true to her Black & White ensemble that solely consists of suits, bow ties, oxfords and stud earrings, in which my opinion put her on the commercial map. Cool, I guess. Musically, she goes. Refreshing compared to the pop, raunchy ass r&b were accustomed to these days. Her first album, The audition kept me company when I used to sew on the daily.

she's back.
Personally, I have been super excited about Kelis's "comeback".
I feel like she is the originator of being original and is YEARS before our time.
Some say she tries too hard but I'm convinced her "fly" is effortless.
She's in a lane of her own.
My whole life is acapella.

wonderland.

I did my research and found out this womans name is Julia Sarr-Jamois, editor of Wonderland magazine. She modeled in her teens, dropped out of college to pursue an internship with I-D magazine, and has since become the fashion editor at Wonderland magazine. At the age of 22, Julia is taking the fashion world by frenzy because she's something the people are used to seeing. People as in the majority of fashion professionals of course. I can relate to her style, being passionate about vintage and I think she is absolutely beautiful.

VOGUE- the black barbie issue
In July of 2009, Italian Vogue put out an issue with all black barbie dolls that I was completely ignorant of. Barbie is a worldwide icon that reaches the mass of children so an issue like this is something like a big deal and nothing short of genius.




Reading through different blogs about the issue [mostly comments], I saw that people felt that they[vogue] shouldn't have singled out JUST Black Barbies but instead use the variety of races. Also, some people commented on the fact that they should have used real models instead of the dolls. I personally believe that people just ALWAYS have something to say. I was astonished at the fact they styled these Barbies to a T, each one representing something different in fashion. The fact that the Barbies were black was the icing on the cupcake. It was something never done to this extent, and I can appreciate the thought, vision and work put into it.
