New Song from Lupe Fiasco - Fire


Since Tabi was nice enough to say on twitter, if he was in Chicago & had leftovers from all the food he was smashing last night, he would save me some in real life lol I decided my song of the day would be Cool& Fly! I love the video & it was shot in his birthplace -Lome, Republic of Togo - West Africa. Enjoy!

Sometimes I wish I lived in NY!


Artist Spotlight : Samuel Canales

Recently on facebook, I was requested an add by Samuel Canales. I accepted and decided to check out his photos. I immediatly fell in love with his art especially his Michael Jackson shirt design. Samuel was the Art Director for Elite Model Management here in Chicago. While working there, he became inspired by the beauty that surrounded him and began to paint portraits. He has done wonderful portraits such as the one above for Janet Jackson, Cassie, America's Top Model winner Jaslene and many more! Other projects include illstrating art for the Walter & Connie Payton Foundation, Bad Boy Records, & Warner Brothers.

If you are interested in buying a shirt go to Samuel Canales Sexy Art
for only $42!























IDK how I feel about this! :angry face:



Sooo rumor has it that my beloved N.E.R.D is adding a female to the group. Fam-Lay, a star trek artist, wrote on twitter, "Her names Rhea... She's the new member of N.E.R.D.!! & she dope!!" The Toronto native auditioned for N.E.R.D over the internet. She says “It was just a really good time. When I came in there and I met them and they heard me sing, I think they decided it was the right fit.” I definitely have to listen to her music. Only female I accepted getting close to P was Va$htie! lol

Let Me Put You On: KM



I'm always down for supporting Chicago artists with REAL talent so I give you KM! He sent me three tracks the other day: Say What You Feel, Birthday Sex (KM Remix), & I Just Got My License. My favorite has to be "Say What You Feel" over Kanye's "Say You Will." His voice flowed over the beat as if it was made for him (watch out Kanye lol). I found myself vibing to it as soon as I turned it on which is a VERY good look!



Here's a little bit about KM:



"Since the very young age of 2 KM has been able to captivate an audience. Family, friends, and strangers are amazed by his display of showmanship. Hailing from Chicago, the son of a pianist and poet it is fate for his musical talents to peak and grow into something beautiful. His goal is to touch people through his colorful rhyme schemes and catchy hooks. He is always striving to become a better artist, songwriter, and person. He is now embarking on his life long journey to become a successful entrepreneur and artist."


Guess it's true some people are born with the musical gene.......


Be sure to check out the links below & keep your eye out for KM! I see major moves in his future!

Amber Rose Gets It In in Complex Mag







Amber Rose! oh how I love thee!

She recently had a photo shoot and interview with Complex Mag! She talked about her relationship with Kanye, her career, and what I love the best, her STYLE!!!
Here's a Brief Excerpt:

Complex: Did you always have an eclectic style growing up?

Amber Rose: Yea, I always looked up to Slash from Guns N’ Roses. I had every single poster of Slash in my room. It was crazy because I grew up in an all-black neighborhood and everybody I went to school with was black. I was the only biracial looking girl in my school, and Slash was biracial too, he was just a fucking rock star. I always wanted to play the guitar. I’ve tried, but ther things came up.

Complex: What’s the status of your career?

Amber Rose: Definitely more modeling, I want to change the face of modeling. I want young girls growing up to know that they can actually eat something, and be beautiful and be a model, that they can actually have a real women’s body and do modeling. I want to get into acting. I want to pursue all avenues that I can.

Complex: Recently you’ve been thrust into the world of TMZ and Perez Hilton. How have you been dealing with the gossip blogs?

Amber Rose: This is my life,this is how my life’s been since I was a kid. I’ve always been popular, my name has always been in somebody’s mouth in high school. I don’t lose no sleep over this shit. Some of the stuff, when it’s extremely far-fetched and stupid, I just laugh. I don’t lose a minute of sleep over this.

Complex: Has your recent fame opened more doors for you?

Amber Rose: Obviously, Kanye is a super-duper megastar so he definitely gave me the fast track to the top, and I love him and appreciate him so much for that.
Complex: What’s one thing about ’Ye that really blew you away about him?

Amber Rose: Well, the fact that there can be a noise in the background, or like a windshield wiper and he will start beat-boxing or banging on the dashboard and start doing some type of beat and it sounds so fresh. I remember when he first did something like that and he just closed his eyes, and gets in the mode. I was like, “Wow.” You have to be a genius to that. He’s amazing.
Shouts to Complex Mag!!

What Do You Think? : Rihanna in Vogue Italia



Rihanna's style has came a looooong way from when she first came on to the music scene. She has evolved into one of my favorite style icons. These photos are from Vogue Italia's September 09 issue. It is very "Grace Jones"-esque. FIERCE Indeed!

Helz Bellz Fall 09 1 Style Warriors Collection

Hellz Bellz is back with another dope collection for this fall! This line of clothing is designed to celebrate women who escape the mundane and predictable in every facet of their lives. Drawing upon cross-cultural sophistication, and a diverse, Aztec-inspired color story, ‘Style Warriors’ truly embodies the aspirations of iconoclast women.
"Colors present throughout the collection include navy, red, elephant grey and black and each garment’s fabrication is of the highest fidelity. Traditional garments, such as the hoodie, have been given the Hellz treatment; they have been transformed into amazing fashion-forward pieces. Unique new silhouettes can be found in the delivery as well, such as the ‘Defensive,’ a woven button up which features cotton plaid with ruffle details in the front and a clever slit on its back. The ‘Style Warriors’ denim program also features a highly stylized jean, called the ‘Taxi,’ which comes in black and indigo vintage washes and features functional padding for added comfort during colder weather."





































It should be droppoing soon...Keep an eye on the Hellz Bellz website!
