Ladies and Gentlemen: Childish Gambino

Yes, it's Troy from Community lol. A lot of people don't know that he's a rapper, and I've actually been sitting on whether I wanted to make a post about him because he might blow up like Drake and be everywhere...and then I'd be sad lol. Anyway, Donald McKinley Glover, aka Childish Gambino, is actually a pretty great rapper.

It's Just Something About...


Na Na Na Na Na Na...Kid Cudi-i-i! Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi could get it in any way shape or form and unlike Wale, I know exactly what it is about him lol.

It's Just Something About...

The idea for this post is not originally mine, I stole it from my best friend Nicole's blog, "The N. White Chronicles" (shameless blog plug lol). Anyway, like I was saying, there's just something about Olubowale Victor Akintimehin aka Wale that I can't explain!

Cee-Lo Green: The Lady Killer

You know how you download cd's and you never listen to them? That's what happened to Cee-Lo and his current album "The Lady Killer". I have every solo album and Gnarls Barkley album that he's put out and I absolutely love everyone. Now while I do like "The Lady Killer", it hasn't captured my heart as fast as the other ones did.

To Abstain or Not To Abstain; That is The Question

So about two years ago, I decided I was going to abstain from sex until I graduated from college. Yeah, that shit only worked for 10 months lol. Today I got a text from a guy that I used to like a looooooong time ago. He happens to kinda be in a relationship, and was married at one point. Actually, now that I think about it, his divorce isn't finalized, but I digress... He texted me saying that he had the "house to himself" as if that was supposed to entice me to come over. I decided against it for three reasons:
  1. Sneak sex is NOT enticing to me. Being the other woman is NOT a good feeling.
  2. I just wasn't feeling it. 
  3. It would've been empty sex...no one likes empty sex. I might as well 'bate!
And then I started to think...Why have sex at all when it's going to be mediocre? Why don't I just be abstinent again?

Divinity

You muttered indiscriminate rhetoric
on a cold and obdurate night
Infinite inquiries went unanswered into your
spotless mind with an occasional
regurgitation of an uncertainty. The
ultimate Kanye Shrug. To err is human,
and to blame something else
exhibits damn good management skills.
So authority was relinquished,
subservience was inevitable
and therefor rendered any utterance
of atonement preposterous
and highly improbable.
So where to now?
Off to the Cape of Eidetic,
where many inconsolables retreat
and mull over remote instances of lives no more.
Forever sending postcards
scrawled with "do you remember"s on the back of pictures
featuring the ruins of Pompeii
Itching for a glimmer of some familiarity
like the bite from a mosquito.
I've been bit, and I swear that shit stings
worst than the bees that you're allergic to
I'm tired of being on this trip,
and I want to go home but I know
the objective has yet to be completed.
To err is human, this I know
but it's gonna take a while
before I can get to the "divine"
part.

Aloe Blacc

Aloe Blacc is an artist I've been on for the past couple months. The first time I heard him was singing the theme song to "How to Make It In America" (which happened to star my boo Cudi) and I had forgot about him for a while. Sometime back in October, I happened to hear "I Need A Dollar" over the loud speaker at work. Immediately I went home and searched for anything and everything that I could by him.
