As I sit here watching (but not paying attention to) a DVR’d episode of Heroes and worrying about a big Hayward fault earthquake (it’s the 140th anniversary of the famous quake - isn’t it morbid in how they celebrate that shit?), I am forcing myself to post because my brain is drained from writing all [...]

Yup, I am almost tired of “Closer” by Ne-Yo
The song is growing mold, but I can manage to squeeze a couple more plays out of it before I start to excise it from my daily workout routine…
However, I am FINALLY over…
It took me long enough. Now when I hear this song, all I can picture [...]

Do you ever just browse YouTube for one particular song from the past and then you just end up watching all these music videos (both good and bad) that invoke fond memories? Actually, I don’t know why I started watching these…they just came out of no where…

This week has been quite hectic for me, hence the lack of posting. That said, I will just share with you some lyrics from “The Word of Your Body” from Spring Awakening that make my vernacular senses tingle every time I hear them. Actually, it’s only a couple of words from the song that are [...]

Yeah, I know it’s been out for a while….but it’s so hypnotizing.
Actually, I am not only obsessed with it, I am obsessed with remixes of:
I am so obsessed with it, that I played it as “intermission” music in my class this week.

What exactly is a ‘Sandcastle Disco?’
Anyway, the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly suggested I download Solange’s latest song, so I decided to check out the video first:
I was trying to debate on what the video reminded me of. A Capri Sun commercial? A commercial for a new Elizabeth Arden fragrance? A new line of Herbal [...]

So in this month’s issue of GQ, I saw a piece on Janelle Monae. They are just NOW putting a piece on the funkatronic R&B artist whereas I wrote something on her back in May (click here, here and here for proof) AND I was listening to her before that.
I just wanted to take this [...]

For some reason, I can’t stop listening to this little ditty by Ciara….
I think it might be because Ciara is lookin’ hot when she’s dressed like a dude. And then of course, you can never go wrong with a good ol’ fashioned crotch grab.

Just when I thought my kitschy adoration for Danity Kane has subsided, I watched their new video for “Bad Girl”:
The lyrics are so profound: When the red light comes on I transform…
