Soul Man

            

I miss R&B music. The kind that laid feelings on the line, and bared their souls in the name of love. The kind of music that made folks want to make babies and that remind me of so many nights of watching my parents slow dance in the kitchen. There's plenty of rhythm, but not enough blues in the 21st century and yeah, I want that "old thing" back. Luckily for those of you that are tired of clubbing in the car, the shower, or desk at work there's a refreshing remedy from an artist we all know.

NO GAY MARRIAGE!!! 

But for real, who the fuck cares? If a grown man or woman falls in love with the same sex who are we to get in the way of their happiness? Seeing how they're not hurting anyone or themselves, they're not holding back from uncle Sam... what's the beef? "Well, what about morals?" "What about the children?" What about all the children who are in unstable heterosexual households? What about the people who go to church on Sunday but lie, cheat, and steal during the week? Are we really that afraid of a lifestyle that is only different behind closed doors?

On a Jet Plane

I'm leaving.
I've been visiting with my mom and nieces for the past 3 months in Ohio figuring out my next move in life. The 72 acres with a pond and fields of oak tress and flowers was refreshing from city life... at first. But the leaves have been replaced with icicles, the ground is covered in white, and personally, I don't see much of a future working at Wal- Mart. My everyday routine centered around my young nieces schedules, exhausting my little mind as well as stifling my creativity.  But I'm thankful to spend this time with them and thankful I was afforded the space and time to plan what's next.

Boss or Bitch?

I think I've gotten this figured out: men are more emotional than women. Now before you give me my scarlet letter and begin my trial, allow me to elaborate. Ever since the beginning of time, men are allowed to indulge themselves in what ails them and hand out the excuse "a man's going to be a man" like they're flyers to an event. So according to history and shared egotism, man is doomed to be a fuck up. Seeing how making mistake after mistake is expected and all... Double standards make my ass itch, and no matter how many times I ask my male friends why men can do certain things that a woman "can't", the answers are shallow or non existent.

Meeting In The Ladies Room

"there's a meeting in the ladies room"




Ms. Keri has done it again! Providing the clueless men with a self explanatory ditty and encouraging girl power to those who need it most. From the beginning of her career she has shown that you can stress talent while still maintaining your sexy side. Penning the R&B hits '4 Minutes' for Avant and 'Take Me As I Am' for Mary J. not only solidifies Keri's legitimacy in the music industry, but has made her the unofficial Pretty Girl ambassador;
