Saturdays are usually the best days of the week, because that's your first day off. I took a walk around the neighborhood, watched kids play, then came back to the blogs...yes, I am officially back, as I have been released from my "tour of duty" at my corporate job. So sad...sing me a love song please.
Some of the highlights from the Saturday Night Edition of the Black Daria Files:
SOULJA BOY STEALING FROM THE KIDDIES?
So, a few kids are up in arms regarding a song they claim was stolen by Soulja...check out their response below:
Chum'on Soulja...go stop by the kids house and say Hi...at the very least. #jussayin'
Here's a song I featured on tonight's show, check it out...I actually kinda like it. It's called 2 Milli. Now before you start getting indignant, just listen to the words to the song. Thx.
RHIANNA IN RED Darn it...now I have to change up my color...just because. OK, I kid, I kid - but tell me, what do we think of Rhianna as a redhead? See below and comment:
Girl. There's far too much to say, and who am I but a simple blogger...blogger #58. I know nothing.
But you do know this video is trash right? Jean-Michele Basquiat would turn over in his fucking grave and shoot up if he saw this...trash. As would Keith Haring and Andy Warhol.
Too many things happened at the AMA's. I didn't watch the whole thing, but I'll start with what I caught, followed by what was online:
J. LO BUSTS HER ASS
No words. I'll let Whitney get up in that ass, maybe a little Thanksgiving Special of "Keeping It Real, Whitney" is in the works. Stay tuned.
WHITNEY IS A DIVA
I refuse to say anything bad about Whitney "THE DIVA" Houston. She gave her best live performance I've heard since promoting her album. Let's face facts. She's just not the Whitney we used to know, but she was the one we remembered last night. Take notes Bey and co.
RHIANNA'S AD FOR BAND-AID/ACE BANDAGES
I hope Johnson & Johnson broke her off for this...was it a coincidence that I thought of Band-Aids and my mind shot back to a bruised up Rhi? Or was I just supposed to be stupid and that was just supposed to fly over my head. And I guess the shoulder pads were to distract me from the lack of singing she actually did while on stage. OK, cool. She sucked anyway. I don't care what happened, she sucked and that's that.
LADY GOO-GOO-GAA-GAA
I mean whatever. I don't hate her, but don't really love her either. I don't know, just always so freaking distracted by the massive amount of shit that she wears, like that alone needs a show. Someone sent my co-host Courtney Brown a picture of the chick from The Fifth Element, and that's a perfect comparison to this outfit GooGaa is wearing.
EMINEM AND 50 CENT - BECAUSE HE CAN'T GET SHOT AT THE AMA'S
I assume that's why 50 performed, otherwise I would have been OK with just Eminem. Maybe 50 fit the quota. Or something. Em's last verse is the best part, IMO.
ALICIA KEYS & HER CHASITY JACKET
I don't really know why the show felt that after she performed with Jay, we needed to see her by herself. Filling that quota I guess, plus Bey wasn't available. Could be a reflection of the music, which kinda sucks, but somewhere Jazmine Sullivan or Chrisette Michele could have filled in a blank.
***THINGS I MISSED (AND THAT'S OK):
JAY & ALICIA
Sounds like Alicia is pushing through her voice...just isn't smooth to me...and I just am kinda like Jay-Z's broach is bothersome.
***PERFORMANCE I WISH I'D SEEN LIVE
TIMELESS JANET
People were hard on Janet about this performance but I thought she did her thing, isn't she over 40? Shiiiiiieeet, if I could remember five dance steps in a row, I'd be proud of myself. This was a mini-concert. I felt Mike's energy in this performance...yeah yeah, I know that sounds wack and clique, but that's how I felt about the performance.
