It’s not my thing trying to get back, but this time let me tell you where I’m at.

I’m not an avid Chris Brown fan but even last year when Michael Jackson passed and BET went ahead with barring him from performing a tribute to him with instead creating one of the most bs shows of all time that was poorly put together, I was upset. He was the only one who could have done it right. In the end the entire BET awards came out a big eff up on their part because of them scrambling to put something together in time. Now I am happy because maybe the year off from major award shows was necessary for Chris Brown to put together THIS tribute that blew away every other one combined!

Daddy isn’t dead though, he continues to live on ♥




If you can’t find something to live for, you best find something to die for.

39 years ago today, the world was blessed with the birth of the late Tupac Shakur – rapper, actor, record producer, activist and poet. One of the best to ever do it.

Days late on this one. Please forgive me. On March 9, 1997 Hip-Hop lost one of its greatest talents, Mr. Christopher George Latore Wallace at the age of 24. So here is to the man that helped establish what is now Bad Boy Records and “Puff”. This is for The Notorious B.I.G..

So the church began to, how did you say it? Oh, hunt them down and kill them.

Here it is. The last we have of the late Alexander McQueen, this is his Fall 2010 “Angels and Demons” Collection. It stuns me. Not in a good way. In a great way.

Today we mourn the passing of the great Alexander McQueen. He took his own life and has left the fashion world in awe at 40 years of age. There will never be another like him. He has left a legacy behind. My regards go out to his family and friends who have also had to deal with the passing of McQueen’s mother last week.
