"Tell Me About It.....STUD."

I don't know what it is, but I'm OBSESSED with studs. I bought my first studded belt in 7th grade at PacSun, and ever since then, I've been obsessed with all things studded. So here's a little tribute to some of the studded things that I love.

Really Joseph???

Joe 'Gangsta' Jackson is at it again! On Sunday, Joseph was featured in a video, blaming Katherine Jackson for their late-son, Michael's death. SHAKING. MY. HEAD. God bless Janet, Katherine, Paris, Prince, and Blanket, but the whole Jackson family is ONE HOT MESS. I think I may have to make a special feature dedicated to the Jackson family alone, because they just get more bizzare by the day...

My Two Cents: Kanye's "Power", and the Nicki Minaj and Lil' Kim "Beef".

Happy June 8th everybody! I know it's been a long time since my last post, but with school coming to a close, (last day is tomorrow!!), I've been really tied up with work; you have my apologies. But more importantly, let's get into today's topics. First: Kanye West's new jam, "Power".
                                                                                                                                                                           I don't know about you guys, but I was BEYOND psyched when I first heard "Power" about a week ago! It was really the first thing that ANY ONE'S heard from the "Kanye Camp" for some time, and in true Yeezy fashion, "Martin Louie the King Jr." did not disappoint. With a sample from King Crimson, Ye flows over the beat with such attitude and swag that is very familiar to Kanye fans and critics alike. Only time will tell how great his album will be, and until then, Kanye fans have something to bump to until the full product is unveiled.                                                                                                                                                                                             Now for the topic of conversation on every blog/twitter/entertainment news page: The Nicki Minaj and Lil' Kim "beef". Now, I hesitate to call it a beef for one reason: It's one-sided. While Kim has been showing animosity and ultimately, jealousy, Nicki has been the bigger person through this whole ordeal, avoiding the nonsense that Kim seems determined to keep going. KUDOS to you Nicki Minaj! I'm glad that you don't have to resort to calling people out in order to get publicity like SOME people. And Kim, don't think that I'm done with you! You should be VERY ashamed of yourself! When a new MC female comes into the game, it's your responsibility, as one of the BIGGEST female MC's to EVER do it, to herald them into the game, not fire cheap shots out of jealousy. And maybe you could also do a reality check and hand her the baton,  because it's QUITE clear that your career is VERY close to being over.                                                                                                                                                         *I apologize for the weird way that it broke up the paragraphs/sentences.*
