"Making His Band"

Ok so Diddy premiered his latest reality baby "Making His Band" on MOnday July 27th, this delves into the life of the fashion/entertainment/business mogul as he journeys to create a new album with a new sound as he searches for band. The show was, shall I say, KICK ASS! Maybe being a musical guru such as myself I MEAN I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THIS SHOW! Every aspect of it is great because it not only focuses on Diddy and his domineering smooth yet arrogant attitude but it focuses on the artist and music; well this what I believe have made all of his shows hits. Even if the groups haven't lasted i.e. 'Making the band 2' and 'Danity Kane' the music is what opens up the audience and captures us to watch for more. I EAGER TO SEE WHAT COMES NEXT...follow this link for the full episode of Diddys "Making His Band" and for more episodes tune in Mondays @ 10pm on MTV! Well just go to MTV.com it's an error with the link on MTVs end lol!

Fall 2009

I am dealing with a dilema of how to get my hair for this coming school year. Anyone that knows me can see that I obviously love hair, I have everything under the sun on my head from locs to a quick weave. I just love black hair and the things that we can do to it, for accentuation or personality/mood. Right now I am sporting a afro I have been natural going 4 1/2 years, but I still get artificial hair put in from time to time for the look and convenience. Anywho, I need to reinvent myself somewhat, everyone has seen me with the fro, but this is my last year [or should be anyways] of undergrad and I want to come and leave with a bang. So im think mohawk, bad ass sew-in, micros or idk...should I just touch up my color? hmmph....

*FASHIONABLE GENIUS*

Ok I have been a big fan of music since I was born from the group 'Subway' & young Monica of the 90s to Kanye of the millenium. Music is a major part of my world past, present and future...when I think of music Hip-Hop comes to my mind first. Not because im an african american but because it isn't just a genre to me but a way of life, movement, a style, a talk, a dress, a swag. One of the people who are Hip Hop to me is Rhianna. Rhianna came onto the seen in the early part of the 21st century with this wackness called "pon de replay". It was a bit horrible well to me anyways and I know good music, but in any sense I her grow from that to Good Girl Gone Bad. That is exactly what happened, when it come to her music and style she has made a complete 160*. degrees. Her music "Rehab" explains how she was all into a guy, he was so addicitve her own personal heroin so to speak. She continues to reinvent her look, this I adore the most. Making so many different transitions within this black is the new black movement, she is a dark angelic princess, from the short black bob, to the black beaufant mohawk she now rocks...her style is PURE GENIUS. I absolutely adore every facet of her fashion, especially being that fashion is one of my passions. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT COMES. Above are some of her oldy but goody looks of today....

kanYe West : Blog : JAY-Z "RUN THIS TOWN" (FEAT. ME & RIHANNA)

Ye' & Jay CAN'T BE STOPPED!
It's crazy to think of how far JayZ and Kanye West have come at seperate entities and then they are brothers so to speak. The indusry talks so much about the duo, some good more bad but the numbers don't lie or lyrics for that matter. They continue to rise and get money which the industry definately owes them for years of entuertainment and talent. I started listening to Shawn in about '99' then Kanye as soon as "through the wire" hit. People said they were wack or what are they talking about, Jay fake, Ye' gay but faith, belief and fanatic spirit has held my interest in them. THEY ARE THE SHIT! Here's the latest track or sickness oh and shout out to Rhi (Rhianna), she is an alien of fashionable genius [if that makes since lol]. HELLO BROOKLYN!

Houses such as this have been popping up everywhere! Well on Kanyes Universevity blog anyways...but it's so DELISH to look at. What do you think?

So much to do so little time

Yes I know it's been just about centuries since i've updated you or graced with my wonderful thoughts but i've been on a roller coaster this summer. It seems like summer school just started yesterday and then next week will be finals! But im definately ecstatic to get the hell outta here...for a month!

Well by my calculations when it come to my credit hours I have that there is only 22 more credit hours left for me to take which IM STOKED ABOUT! But like I have continued to say, there is always a surprise usually for an eager senior, so im trying to figure out now what that will be. But it seems so unreal and bittersweet. TRUST, im ready to be out but im scared of what the future holds and actually if ill be able to get away from KY. Ihave many plans...beginning with this internship with the University of Dreams. If I get this it will be EXCELLENT! It's the money tho, im freakin broke. But im gonna pray on that, then there is graduate school or my professional designation. Im looking at attending FIDM in Fall '10' but once again money is a major issue. The program of choice though is perfect for me.

Ill let you in first on what it is I wanna do. I want to style, whether is a fashion editor for shoots, a personal stylist, ill even be a buyer but yes something where I giving advice on what to wear and putting pieces together...that's what I do see, AND IM DAMN GOOD AT IT! But the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising offers a professional designatin in Visual Communications. This is a one year program which is perfect [straight to the point], I can get it and get out. It's just the money. Im worried and now trying to apply for scholarships but even that's a tough job. But I feel that if I have to take out a loan, I don't want to but this will be to get the proper tools ill need for a future in fashion which will guarantee me major cash flow to pay the loans off right!? HOPE SO! Because if I don't get any outside help from scholarships or winning the lottery that's what im doing, im getting the hell outta here. Simply relocating is not enough, I need fashion it's sort of my life.... So without the skills I earn at FIDM im nowhere but in a nasty fastfood resteraunt probably wearing a black apron, slip resistant shoes, and a bow tie. Can we say GROSS!!

On the road...post graduation.

Ok so I know I have been away from awhile so I decided to pay you a visit. Like I was saying earlier I have been looking at different art institute to attend post graduation and I have come across some very interesting, exciting and helpful information. I will start with the locations: I know I am very eager [for some reason] to go to Boston, MA. I have no clue why, well I sort of due and it's far from fashion but my fascination is pulling me there. Then there is California of course, with it's "HILLS" of flash...this would be one of the more obvious areas to study. Then there are more obvious places to study such as nyc, florida and chicago, but the price of living is something that I definately have to take into consideration.

Many questions to ponder when making a decision like if I were to go to one of these areas which are all costly, do I apply for jobs first and foremost so I can be secure in whereever I decide to go? Do I see who is offering the most money for school, or do I go where the opportunity to make it in my field leads me?
