Spotlight:Janelle Monáe

A artist from Atlanta Georgia, who is
different from most that you have ever heard of.
With exciting and moving lyrics that will want you to craveto hear more. Some say she is an R&B, Soul,
and Futuristic Rock Wonder/Singer. Try listening to her
yourself.

Beating Around the Freakin Bush!

Just came to my mind.
I'm getting tired of finding myself
or constantly associating myself
with people that beat around the freaking bush.
They say one thing and then do another. They mean one thing but
endlessly do the opposite. They feel a certain way then approach you
different. CAN YOU PLEASE MAKE UP
YOUR MIND! Is it really that hard. You don't know what you want
and I'm trying to be civil about it. Your confusing yourself and blinding your-
self from what is really true.
I hate when you start to think, please just change the time.
Why do i always consider?
Still thinking might just lead you to no one.
Now your on your own. Surrounded by that individual
that doesn't truly mean anything to you.

Be strong, just getaway to that individual

Learn what they honestly mean, You

continually think about them
Don't contemplate now. I made the change.

No apologizes,

Might Consider.

Swollen

My fellow friends and myself decided to hit up the courts after a long day of

college credited classes. We had a thousand papers to do and decided to grace our presence

at the b ball courts. It was outrageously hot at the park and my

body was just going kaput as we went along. I was so of balance not hitting the shots that I usually make and everything. Just being lazy,

shall I just put it in those words. It was so hot

felt like the devil was playing defense on me. I don't think i was ready for the hot weather.

As things got rotten my killa Court does some type of big man move in

push my butt right to the ground.

I'm in pain I guess, I like landed right on my ankle.

I never realize pain until after or you could say I

wasn't going to show the twinge because

there was some fly, athletic, delightful, and endearing men there.

You know i was going to

try to play off the pain as much as i could.

That sucker was done. My ankle could stand anymore walking or running

it was time get back to the crib.

I got in the house and couldn't walk up the steps

Then when i looked at my ankle

it looked like the size of a cantaloupe that i was about to

help myself to.

Putting ice and doing all this stuff for

this reckless ankle isn't making anything better, especially as

i craw all around the house or use my hockey stick as my cane.

Not even to mention that my loving sibs and caring parents

are enjoying every bit of this.

I just hope whatever i did to this ankle heals before hockey because i

can't do damage if I'M damage.

My Drive Thru

Spotlight: J Davey

This Duo From Los Angeles caught my ear out of
no where after reading about them in many magazines. First
starting off as a Underground celebrity then making their way to something
even bigger. They caught my attention because anyone can relate to their
sound, lyrics, beats, and the things they are trying to say.

Michael Beasley(Kansas Savior)

So i opened up my paper Saturday morning as i was eating my watermelon when i read that Mike Beasley is hurt. He was struck by a teammates elbow in a defensive drill,that caused the injury. Well some say he suffers from a minor chest injury. While others like the Philadelphia Inquire call it a "Freak Injury", what the heck i need to know if my boy is hurt or not.(I still love you Derek Rose). He slightly cracked his sternum. He still did drills with Miami Heat summer league team on Saturday afternoon.

Louis Vuitton

Yes, Kanye is really releasing with Louis Vuitton, to make it even better it's a shoe brand for all you posh men out there. However, Kanye did not forget the ladies he is also releasing a brand for women sometime in the fall of 2008. Get Ready!

Patrice- Teenage Love Affair

My Friend Patrice
will also be featured on
This blog that we have here now and then
She is one of the many talented writers that
I know
She created her own Interpretation
of her Teenage Love Affair

He was a smooth talker wit a lil bit of slang
Had a philly vibe
he liked the gurls that wore the jean to grip the thigh
His sense of style was oh so fly
I had to break my neck every time he walked by
City kid wit a fitted, pointed to the right wit his homies on the left
Didnt need a gun to protect
but always treated the ladies with respect
He wanna get in...betwenn me and my friends this love story not gon end
Again and again tis story not gon end
Saw him wit his crew my gurl Dupree said go make it do wat it do
Before I knew it she was feelin his homeboy too!
D-nice had the brotha who was lookin like dwight
Momo Jene was hookin up with the cutie in the green
They was spittin game and talkin slick, one boy even had a soft lisp
We was laughin & talkin togetha
the conversation could go on foreva
It was 6 we all split wit each others digits
My boy walked me home
cuz he aint want me to be alone
Dropped me off home...but jus before dat
He gently put his hands on my hips to give me a soft kiss on the lips
That was that
he said he be right back...
After work he came by with flowerz in his hand
Lookin kinda shady he said "I wanna be your man"
Will you be my Lady?

Jam....!
