PS....

I forgot to mention the song my sister brought to my attention from the Black Eyed Peas, who have an album called E.N.D. dropping soon. The song is called "Boom Boom Pow." Let me know what you think....

Also I am taking bets on the SMC vs. Gonzaga game tonite....can patty mills pull thru another game with his injured hand...or will the pressure be too much....also i hope my boy Josh H scores some more points this game...jeez....more later!

ciao for now!

This is the REMIX baby....

This past week has been a crazy one in music. So much so, that I did not even have time to write a blog until now. Please forgive me.... But I write bearing lots of gifts! :) Where to start, where to start...Lets start with my current fav....Keri Hilson!

Not only did she come out with a remix for turnin me on with lil wayne and t-pain but they all have different verses, even keri and wayne! It is super sick...so download it today. And I mentioned her other single, "Knock You Down" in my last blog, but for thos of you who are slow, get on that song too. Her album drops March 24th and it is called "In a Perfect World." There is also a snippet of her new new song "Hey Girl" with Lil John and T-Pain; it sounds promising.

The Dream has an album coming out tomorrow, March 10th, approriatley titiled "Love vs. Money." My favs so far from that cd are "Mr. Yeah", "Put it Down" and "Take U Home 2 My Momma." You might notice that "Mr. Yeah" mentions one famously insane but also insanley talented Pop Diva whom The Dream has sung with before....I smell some drama! Yay!

In other news, the phenom young gun Kid Cudi has a song out called "Dat New" which is good, but he also has a new new song out called "Sky Might Fall" which I mentioned in my last blog, but it is so good I mentioned it again. Also, lil wayne has a song out called "I Got It" and he also came out with a remix of "Prom Queen" that is sick. Check out the official video for that song on youtube if havn't already, its funny. Kanye has two new songs out: "Doin Girls Wrong" and "Playa Playa." Both equally good, as per usual from Kanye.

Now a few random good new songs to download:

*"Put it On Her" - Day 26
*"Who Dat Be" - Young Buddy
"Show Stopper" - Slim from 112
"Scared of Monsters" - Currensy (one of the "freshman")
"Jail Again" - Maino
"Weather Girl" - Mario
"Bend that Ass Ova" - Akon ft. Young Twinn
"Shorty" - Akon ft. Skank
"Sugar" - Flo Rida ft. Wynter
"No Love" - Twista ft. The Game
"Hot Mess" - Ashley Tisdale (love her...her new album is gonna be awesome :)

ok well thats all for now...enjoy! I know I will...in fact im updating my ipod as we speak and then hitting the tanning booth for a bit...gotta get ready for Vegas :)

Ciao for now!

flow like afterlife....

PDSTM Part Deux

Ok I'm back! Rejuvinated and feeling much better about myself. Which is good news for you all because I am in the sharing mood :) I shouted out a few songs in my previous blog, but now I will get down to the nitty gritty...basically which I think are worth your time to listen to and why. Now while I will always and forever love Kanye West, recent love match aside, many people disliked his last record. Not me Kanye, not me. I believe this mellow trend in his music will continue and as we can see, will affect other artists he works with. Point in case, Flight School. Beautiful song, but somewhat sad and haunting. I personally love it, but it is not for the faint of heart. Same with Walking On the Moon. Although we do get much more vocally out of the Dream so I'm not complaining. The kat deluna song is one of my favs. If you liked Keri Hilson turning me on you will LOVE this track. It is a little edgier but so very delicious.

Speaking of Keri Hilson....she has a new track out! It is called Knock You Down and it features Mr. Kanye himself and Ne-Yo, whose song Mad is also a current favorite of mine. My other blow up track of the moment is by none other than one of my FAVORITE artists and has been a LONG time coming! Sky Might Fall by Kid Cudi. Produced bye....yup you guessed it...Kanye! yay! Give it a listen and you will see what I mean....it is amazing. But I would expect nothing less from Kid Cudi, a definite artist to watch.

Other new songs that are decent but not great:

*Ashanti - The World....a better effort from her but still lacks flowablity...if u know what i mean

*Ya Boy - Pants Sagg....good beat, strong lyrics....we will see on this one...

*Mimms- Move if you wanna....good beat, fun party song...not as good as this is why im hot...but what song of his is or ever will be

*Miley Cyrus - The Climb...from her upcoming movie Hannah Montanna...this one is for you Liz!

ok well thats all I have to report for now...but you know I will have more good songs for you soon...as it my personal duty to find the newest and best music for you all! You heard it hear first kiddies....and if you didn't...well prove it!

Ps- Did anyone see the Kansas vs. Texas Tech game?? Normally I am a Jayhawks fan but I have to say I was more than thrilled to see TT pull an upset of the 6th ranked team, making them wear that shared league title lol. Also, good for Stanford since they beat TT preseason...

ciao for now!

Please Don't Stop the Music....

I have not been in a blogging mood as of late. Those of you who know me will know why. Anyways, I know the need for new music surpasses any personal tragedies going on so here it is:

The Hot List:

Flight School - T-Pain & Kanye West

Walking on the Moon - The Dream ft. Kanye West

Put it On - Kat DeLuna feat. Lil Wayne

Mista DJ - Sean Kingston

Comfort - Omarion ft. Lil Wayne

The Stampede - Tyga ft. Drake ( this is just a snippet, meaning it is only about 1 minute plus some long but it is indicitive of what is to come from tyga...in short it is sick and worth downloading and listening to) Yes this is the same young man who sang the cocoanut song but trust me he is moving on up...


Thats it for now....I highly reccomend Flight School as it is my favorite of the moment...also for all of you Asher Roth fans out there, I have not forgotten. If you havn't dowloaded his mixtape from TheDailyKush.com yet...DO IT! its free and its fucking awesome...even if he does make fun of britney while rapping over her beats. Also there is a remix of I Love College with Jim Jones...I highly reccomend it :)

Hope that keeps you satisfied for now kiddies...more later when my life is not trying to be ruined by stupid bitches....

ciao for now

And the Diagnosis Is....

So I have been on a House bender as of late. My boyfriend purchased season 4 for me and I have been watching it non-stop. What better way to warm up during these cold past couple of days then with Dr. Greg House sending warm fuzzies to everyone on screen. :) But seriously, there is something about him that I just LOVE and cannot get enough of. But then again I think I have a thing for television characters like his. I am also in love with Detective Stabler on Law & Order: SVU and the always brooding Agent Fox Molder played by my very first crush, David Duchovney. Sigh. I digress.

As I'm watching the 3rd disc of the 4 disc set, I stumble on perhaps the most meaningful episode yet. Yes, House has insight in each episode, don't get me wrong, but this one was different because it hit home with me. The storyline followed a 38-year-old woman who used to live life in the fast lane, workring for a record label, but gave it all up for a serious, strict religion and marriage to man she had only met 3 previous times. House thinks their is something wrong with her mentally because he believes people don't make extreme changes like that out of the blue. He doesn't believe people can change period. Now to be fair, this is also the epidosde where House has to come to terms with Wilson dating Amber aka Cuthroat Bitch. Needless to say, he has alot on his plate.

But what he said really stuck with me. Can people change? I know they can want to change and even need to change. But do they ever really change the person they are? It made me think about all the change that has happened in my life. And their has been alot of it. I have attended 4 different colleges and had countless friends come and go, but is that because I changed or because life goes on? Right now I am trying to make a huge life change, but will I be able to do it? Or will what House said hold true?

Later on last night, I was reading one of my trashy teen mystery series (which will remain nameless) and I stumbled upon the same topic. The main character in the book pondered the same thing as House: can people ever change? Granted she had alot less of a cynical view, but the same question remained.

I find it very hard to believe that we are to forever be the people we are born as. That we are not influenced by our family, friends and our environment. I believe change is possible, dare say necessary for human beings. Motives for change can vary, but the result is the same. People can change because they love someone, they can change because they love themselves. Either way, we have to adapt to life and learn to live with anything it may throw at us. :) And on that note, here is to 2009 being a kick-ass year. God knows I need it. I'm sure alot of us do.

Anyways, have a great, rainy monday kiddies! I'll be back tonite with the music update for the week! Ciao for now!
