Wanted Wednesdays: Watch The Throne


Just a few months ago anyone who knows me or have read the left hand side of my blog would not doubt my love for the arrogant, yet talented Kanye West. I can go on and on about WHY I love him so much, but thats not the point of this Wanted Wednesday. The point is to notify YOU, the reader, of things that are hot in the streets and that is wanted by myself and/or others. But even the most LOYAL Kanye fans are feeling some way about these high **s ticket prices. I mean, the way I see it now, only three types of people have tickets already for this concert: The rich, the "I'm just going to say I went", and the Eminem "Stans" who would probably do some harm to Kanye if they ever met him. Now, you want to know what I call "expensive"? True, $114 is NOT a lot to see Kanye. $114 is a lot to see Kanye when you're sitting in the freaking nose bleed! Sure, Jay is with him, but I'm sorry, I refuse to pay over $1oo for piss poor seats for two mofo's running around a stage and maybe doing ONE costume change! Great seats for Beyonce are about that much, but again, Beyonce has lights, dancers, choreography, set & costume change and last: She's Beyonce! I saw Janet Jackson a few months back and SHE wasnt even that expensive. And sure Janet aint been hot, "HOT" since the Velvet Rope, but still, I think she should demand more money than two rap artist running around on stage with their mics out makings the audience rap half their lines! I'm sorry if this is turning more into a rant, but I'm passionate about music AND Kanye and it seriously pains me to know there is a chance I wont be at the concert. And if you're wondering why I just wont bite the bullet and get the cheap seats, I'll tell you why: I've been to TWO Kanye concerts,paid less than $100, never been any further than 12 rows back AND *clears throat*, I snuck backstage with the intention of meeting Kanye and I DID meet Kanye AND spoke to him. Dont believe me? I have three people to back me up. Anywho, thats another blog. But for now, I'll just be hoping and wishing this Wanted Wednesday for Watch The Throne tickets.

Throwback Thursday: Me, Myself and I

You know how when your younger you listen to songs but they don't me crap until you experience them? Well, this is one of the first songs I heard that I felt applied to my life. I was probably a freshman or sophomore in college and I just realize I got over my high school sweet heart. There were times when I felt like I would never get over that dude, but I did! Now, if I an only get this song to apply to my current situation, I should be straight. BUt as Bey says, "love is so blind it feels right, when it's wrong". Oh and I just love her part at the 1:45 mark. She sung that like it was the TRUTH. And although her baby daddy is associated with being a gangsta, Bey looked too gangsta at the end with the cigar!!! LOL! I absolutely loved it!

I will leave her "Bey"


So when I found out Beyonce "Sasha" Knowles was up for the role of Angela Davis, I literally wanted to scream to the mountain top, "No! No! No! Not Bey"!!! But I have calmed down since. I've calmed down, because right as I was about to write a blog bashing and even "judging" her no acting ass, I thought about something. These film makers are trying to make entertaining movies that will also educate some of us (and also they are running out of creative ideas for movies so they just do biography's now), but who will see these films? Think about it. Cadillac Records was a mediocre movie that briefly told the story of several very,very prominent jazz musicians. Most of whom a lot of people never heard of. But do you think even half the people that saw it would have seen it if it weren't for Beyonce? Honestly, I wouldn't have.


So here's the story of black activis Angela Davis that Bey is set to play. I have a friend who everyone says she looks like Angela and she doesn't even know who this woman is. It's ok. The "man" didn't teach us too much about the black radicals and actavist in history( or black folk period), so if you're not familiar with her, it's ok. But to my point, if Bey is not in this film, it might as well be an Indi film. Wait! Unless they can get Angela Bassett to play the role. I think enough movie goers (black, white, young and old) respect her as an actress. Hhhmmm? You know, that doesn't sound like a bad idea. But wait, if they are concerned about appearance, Angela Bassett is a little darker than Ms.Davis. Maybe they can get a white woman to play her like Robert Downy, in Tropic Thunder. Well, regardless of who they get to play the role, I will not knock Bey's hustle because at the end of the day ( I should shoot myself for saying that), people will get to see Angela Davis' story told if Beyonce is in the film. Hey, I'm not "crazy in love"with her, but I'll be damned if I dare judge her.
