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!

The Kid Honors: Whoopi Goldberg

Caryn Johnson, one of america’s most prominent comedians and actresses is most widely known by her stage name, Whoopi Goldberg. I honor miss Goldberg for the reason I honor most people: Respect. I can not ignore everything this woman has accomplished within a few years that some peole will NEVER do. Whoopi is one of the few people who has won an award in all of the four most highly respected genres. She has won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and a Tony award. Think of your favorite actor and tell me if they have even come close to achieving these awards? Probably not. And that doesn’t mean that they aren’t any good, they’re just no Whoopi. What also make all these wins so special is that she never “sold out”. Now, it aint hard to tell that Whoopi is not your typical actress. She’s not white or light skinned, she not petite, she’s no, um, Halle Berry but shes not just used for humor. Goldberg got her big break doing stand up comedy, but her first lead role (or first movie role period) was her role as Celie Harris in The Color Purple. Film maker Stephen Speilberg saw something special in Whoopi and trusted this comedian enough to take on such a challenging and out of comfort zone role. Since then she’s been in hundreds of films, shows and sitcoms from, Star Trek to Lion King or from Sister Act to her Academy Award winning role in Ghost. I can respect that. I can also respect the fact that she never cut her dreds and how could I not? In a work environment where looks are everything, she never gave in.
Everyday when I get home I watch The View and Whoopi dresses like no other. Again, I must respect that. Now, if you didn’t know her past of being a home wrecker and past love affairs with certain men, you would probably think Goldberg was a lesbian. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but I do love the fact that she is so comfortable in her skin, she doesn’t care what anyone has to say. And obviously, she never has. I have mentioned this before, but of all celebrities there are to encounter, I would probably come to tears if I met her. I’m not really sure why, but I just respect her character. Ever since I was little I’ve always like Whoopi, although it wasn’t until I became an adult, I realized why. Again, respect. With Whoopi being one of two or three comedians on The View, everyone thought Whoopi would be on the show to add some comic relief, but she is now the voice of reason. On a comedic level I would NEVER compare myself to Whoopi, but I’m glad she takes a different position on the show. I don’t tell too many people that I’ve done stand up before because as soon as I do, they want me to say something funny and from there on out, I’m just seen as a funny person. They seem surprise when something intelligent comes out of my mouth because of course you can’t be funny and smart. That’s just crazy!
No matter you opinion about Ms. Goldberg, you now know you cant help but to respect her and what she stands for. And if you dare judge her, well, you didn’t really read this blog now did you?

Featured Artist: Big Sean

Finally!! Drake got some competition! All over the websites and underground mixtapes all we keep hearing about is Drake! Now, don’t get it tangled like wild hair after sex: I digs Drake, but for a while it seemed as though he was in a category all his own. But there’s this new kid that I GUARANTEE will start the new “who’ better” convo. I mean, no one can just be hot, right? Somebodies got to be better. But it’s not always fair. It was NEVER fair to comapare Jigga to Nas or Eminem to Biggie, but people do it. I strongly believe theres going to be a “who’s better” competition among Drake and Big Sean because they’re both extremely young, both are backed by the hottest rappers out now, (Drake is backed by Lil Wayne and Big Sean is backed by the Louise Vuitton Don), and they both have mentally ill lyrics!!! Big Sean hails out of Detroit and kind of looks like a young Fabolous. He got his start by freestyling on local Detroit radio stations. One day he heard Kanye was at one of the stations and since he had built up such a good rapport with the station from his freestyling days, they allowed him in the studio to meet Ye. Upon meeting Kanye he spat a freestyle and from there on out, he was sign to GOOD records. Big Sean is super playful with his wordplay but showing skills and his hunger to be noticed when he raps lyrics such as “My city like ‘we need another hero'/I’m tired of playing the background like Tito/ Jackass niggas remind me a of Steve-o/ I put them in their place til I remind them of Deebo” or when he begins his mannish bragging on the perks of being a celebrity, “She know me and my boys are up and coming/ And she’s just trying to get us up and cumming”. I think this dude has massive potential to go mainstream, but right now his only fans are hip hop heads. Lets not forget, Lupe Fiasco had the same buzz and while he is known, he still hasn’t reached that superstar status but still has a loyal following. After hearing Big Seans mixtape, I’ve too have become a loyal follower. Please check out Big Sean at Uknowbigsean.com and don’t forget to download his mixtape while your at it (And although this album is on itunes, don’t buyit. Sean allows you download the album from his website for free)

Funny Fridays: Chris and RiRi
Ok, Ok, OK! I get it! This is old news and you probably seen hundreds of Chrianna parodies, because domestic violence is funny, right? But this by far, in my opinion, is the funniest. It's a little long and after about two mins it's redundant, but if you can watch it all, go for it! Now, while I don't condone men hitting women (or vice versa) I do condone comedy, so don't you dare judge me!
