Well, well well...

I knew this chick was shady...so the plot thickens on Tia, baby mother of Ricky Rossy. Seems this young ladies got felonies for days and weeks.

According to Word on the Streets Mag, not only has this woman been charged with assault and tampering with evidence, but....SURPRISE, child neglect.

Makes me believe I was dead on in #3 of my note to Fiddy, or Curtis, as I like to call him.

So you went and found this shady bitch, bought her a fur, gucci shoes and did things we can't see on camera, right? Seems the money would have been best spent building a Youth Center in Hollis (of course you'd need more than you spent on that greasy tramp). You may want to give me a call to talk about business consulting on a grassroots level. But after the disaster show Money and the Power on MTV, I think I will pass.

Good job, 50! See, I told you no response IS A RESPONSE.

Nope...can't talk about it yet...so here's the Lil Wayne Pre-Grammy Interview instead...

As a professional blogger (allowed to call myself that after Stevie Wonder himself wrote me on Facebook today) I looked and scanned all the articles I saw...and then I started thinking about Chris and Rihanna. And I realized I needed to give this the proper Black Daria analysis to propose a theory. So you are going to have to wait, but I guarantee it's quite a concoction.

In the meantime, if you missed the Pre-Grammy's Interview with Lil' Wayne and Katie Couric, I thought you should definitely take a look. I need to say the following before you watch:

1. Although I do not like Lil' Wayne, I like the song "A Milli" that beat is amazing, I would definitely be Bangladesh's best friend if he blessed me with a beat just to walk to down the street. I've seen old school dudes bounce their heads to these beats.

2. I found this interview hilarious, yet insightful. I learned things that I didn't really care too much about before, so I kind of get some of the Boosty Collins (does Weezy play any instruments) references and such...I just don't know what he's really doing for music just yet besides giving me one song to bounce my head to at a party that was recorded after 2000. Of course there's a gang of 20-somethings waiting to torch me right now when I walk outside.

Anyway, while I compile my Rihanna analysis...

Part One:


3. DOH! Those damn clever folks at CBS must have their legal dogs on the case, because the second part of the interview was removed. But here's the part that was prominent in the interview (I love when he calls her Miss Katie, reminds me of my college years):



Weezy, did you get to "show her the receipts" for those medicinal purchases? (I would have asked...just for kicks).

Do they give receipts for those at least?

P.S. Thanks for World Star Hip Hop for taking a chance, as well as dude taping from his phone/camera...nice camera work.

Dear Curtis,

Wow, unreal. See, the other day on Talk Dat Ish radio, I was asked about the video featuring you with Ricky Rossy's baby mother, and I thought to myself, and actually said out loud "How bitchy!" I can not tell a lie, I did laugh at a few of the witty seconds within the clip...but I am really at a loss for words.

No, actually I am not. I am not sure what I just witnessed, but I have a few questions:

1. Did you notice she was missing a tooth on the left side? Maybe you should have taken her to the dentist first...but then again, they made your teeth too big too, because you can't seem to close your mouth or anything. Hey, I could use some work myself, but I thought I'd mention it since you seem to be so freaking generous...had a great time at your Superbowl party back in '06 even though I arrived late, btw...I was the one with the girl dropping those "leaves" on the floor ;)

2. I am trying to understand why you had to bring up the other baby mother, who happens to be an escort...she had a kid, that means she's not a man, and it seems Ricky ain't gay...you picking out furs? Hmmm...I mean I dunno, I thought ladies went out with their GIRLS and did that? Plus I don't think it's nice to blow someone up without their consent, she isn't complaining about bread, she's getting money, so kudos to her. Even if it's dirty and whorish.

3. Didn't see her buying anything for the kid she's going to court for...wonder how this video is gonna work out for her in court.

But why do you care right? I don't know, I just don't think Rick Ross is worth responding to...for Pete's sake he was just trying to feed his kids legally with the corrections gig....or be legit, whatever they are calling the rat race these days...

I will say this...after today's judgement, I hope Shaniqua isn't flying to Miami...but then again, she doesn't seem like Ricky's type.

Please do not release anymore tomfoolery of this sort on your site. Do it for Hollis.

Signed,
Black Daria (who at one time, lived on the other side of the LIRR tracks in St. Albans, giving me full clearance to address you as Curtis ;/)

Things to ponder on a hump day...

Please excuse my lack of posts, as I am going through a transition mode in my life, forcing me to leave things behind I love longer than I’d usually do…like my blog. And since Black Daria probably has at least 2 other things she loves more than this blog, you may understand that blogging daily can be quite the task. If you don't understand, well, (insert sarcasm here) screw you ;/

But I haven’t been completely negligent of my duties of informing the public on my stance on…whatever. Just last night I was on Talk Dat Ish radio, where we went into the world of skinny jeans….for men. Yes, men. Picture below is an example:


Credit: who knows (or cares), but the photographer is probably wearing something just as fabulous...

To my surprise, we discussed the subject of whether or not this was cool on the show last night, and I wanted to give the topic a fair chance, but it became deeper as we got into sexuality. Frankly, I guess I’ve been raised where these things aren’t really questioned (sexuality) to a degree of what one is wearing…it’s more about HOW it’s being worn.

For example, I understood why I saw a man's boxers when he wore baggy jeans. But when did that become OK for skinny ones? Logistically, I didn’t think it was possible, but somehow, out comes a little ass…and so not cute boys. Yes, boys wear their asses out in little jeans, because mommy didn’t give them a belt that day. Men buy a belt and pull their freaking pants up. And don't get my mother started on that one, I often have to remind her I can't beat everyone's ass after she points at them and hits me on the arm asking "Why?"

A friend circulated this fuckery picture amongst her cohorts, and one of the people on the e-mail chain happened to know one of these Ringling Brothers personally, and let the chain know that one of them “was his boys…” I don’t know, I don’t claim circus acts. I respect expression and color, but these styles will make us question the state of who you are as well as your mental capacity, and I personally don’t want to date a man who wants to wear my jeans too…I mean, that’s what we pretty much concluded with on the show last night…and you can listen to as much as you can take of us here.

SUPERBOWL RECAP

I also must admit I haven’t been much of a blog whore as I normally am, so I don’t have much to report. I did watch the Superbowl, and OK….next. Steelers won, whoopee. Honestly, I fell asleep during Springsteen, and woke up with 3 minutes left on the clock…good game.
The commercials I saw were also weak, but apparently they pulled the big dogs during my brief slumber. Here is one of my favorites from that bunch:



What else…oh, 50 needs to stop. Seriously. I think I am going to have to write a letter to him. Maybe Thursday…


TV MINUTE

Gossip Girl was weak this week, so it’s getting no play on this here post. I still think Chuck Bass needs to watch out if I see him on the street, but in the meantime, thumbs down to Monday’s episode.

The City got pretty interesting, as Kelly Cutthrone pretty much let us know she also hates skinny bitches as much as Mo’Nique does, or did, now that’s she’s lost quite a bit of weight (fabulous at any size but no more Essence covers please).



Daddy’s Girls…I think I am going to start a petition to put them on Nickelodeon, or BET…they are so sweet and squeaky clean that coming after The City is a huge set up…considering the type of viewer who likes the raciness of The City, versus the carryover to then watch Daddy’s Girls. I am seeing two viewers…can’t wait to see what Nielsen says. As a black popular culture analyst, I see this as a way to not be able to bring this show back…why 10:30? Something is not right about that, but I want to be mistaken…oh, and this whole Licensing issue doesn’t help for season 2:

…um, who’s fired here? Ironically, I went to a Johnny Cupcakes party back in 2005 for a friend who’s party was being sponsored by dude who owns Johnny C…he’s definitely no stranger to the indie clothing brands out there, and I hope the case is tight…wouldn’t want to see the ladies suffer for what seems to be a huge oversight, to be nice…it’s clear that folks are not designing their own clothes, but when walked down this type of path, you have to be careful. I am on your side ladies, even though I wasn’t invited to any parties for your show. Black Daria will look for future invites.


OK, I think that’s all for now. I am going to go catch up on some much needed gossip site reading, and get my blogroll on…check out some of mine on the right when you feel like being entertained.

Remember the future...

And also remember if i see this slogan on a t-shirt, I will sue for royalties. I like checks.

Some gossip. Because you care, right? Right.

Gossip catch up...Black Daria was busy on Talk Dat Ish radio tonight, so she doesn't have time for updates or rants, but here...since you all want to know what's going on:

WHO IS THIS?

I know, I'd say the same thing if I didn't watch The City on MTV. But this fool, after attending a Downtown event Whitney invites Olivia to (not knowing she was breaking many rules of the Upper East Class by simply breathing in her direction) says, "We are polar opposites from the Downtown people" and other nonsense. You'll have to watch about 15 minutes into it to hear this bitchass. Yea, you sir, are a bitchass.

Why are you getting arrested for picking up hookers, skipping out on hotel bills...um...doesn't sound like movin' on up is as good as George and Weezie made it seem. Guess I will just keep kicking it here in Harlem. And I like Downtown far better than you snobs who have to pay for ass because you are awkward and that's the only way to get a girl. Ask Eliot Spitzer. No links for that dude, google him.

***Tell them why you're mad, Black Daria...***

Other...stuff:

Fabu-not: Is this true? If so, I think I am tired of hearing this type of stuff, like what's next? Are we in a recession or is it just some of us? Hey, I am the first person to tell you, it's not easy being Black Daria...but I just am not doing stupid shit like this (if it's true of course). Pretty outlandish tale...

Aaliyah-Z? You know, I was not even going to post this, but here is what I hope: Jay-Z or Dame Dash better come back and put this young lady to rest...I was going to do a tribute to her just two weeks ago...come on, let her rest, please. I will also still read Mediatakeout.com because like many of you, I am in love with this stuff just as much as you are. It would be a lie if I said otherwise, so there :/. Plus I read it on two other blogs...somebody better respond.

Danity Kane is no more, so they say. And frankly my dears, I don't give a fuck (if this is true). You should be nicer to people you meet, you never know when they will blog about how your clothes were a hot mess, or that you are just straight up stank. So, I am happy to see you are DISBANDED.

I probably wouldn't say that, but "Oh well, oh well..." as Radio Personality Miss Jones says. Of course, I will be watching when they come back on February 5th at 9PM. Diddy is no fool, there's alot to learn from him...I know, but I think people underestimate him because he's a dancer. Just saying. Look, he moved into Prime Time hours...not even the Hills gets 9 PM...

OK, Eyes are officially popped out of my head.

Black Daria ;/

Dear Mr. McGruder...

Dear Mr. McGruder,

Thank you for responding to the recent posts regarding your feelings about President Obama. It's nice to know that you felt moved to do something, since I am still waiting for the third (or fourth?) season of the Boondocks. I would also like you to know that you are very damn cute, but I need to get some things off my chest like a professional blogger, and not some pseudo-groupie.

I'd like to state that while Barack may not be African-American, we can't ignore that American society breaks us into classes based upon looks, and an immigrant, Barack does not "look." I say this due to the stereotypical nature of the people, although the 2 million people who stood on the lawn last Tuesday kinda begin to tell us otherwise.

They tell us that we are all in the same gang together, and that if not for them, we couldn't appreciate your type of humor...well, at least some of us. I don't think it's that easy to dismiss Obama's race or heritage, when we know that in American society, both immigrants and minorities have faced their own prejudices that wouldn't allow for the amazing transformation that took place on January 20, 2009. President Obama's term will be challenging for all Americans. I agree, the raping of Americans by many whom held our future in their hands is a task that not just one man can bear to repair alone. I do challenge you to tell me what you are doing to help Obama, as he's requested all of our help.

Allow me to elaborate. There was a young lady who I'd always see in the mornings going to work; she used to hand me my AM/NY paper along with all my other reads I scan on a daily basis. A few weeks later, she was outside my job, on a smoke break with a friend, complaining about her job at McDonalds. She wants something better, but she didn't know where to begin.

I could have judged her from the start. By no means are we from the same socio-economic background...but we happen to live one block away from each other, and when I ran into her the other night, she was holding an eviction notice, and looking quite hopeless.

I couldn't offer her much, but I did give her a good meal, and we talked for about an hour. Another friend stopped by, and I got the feeling that by the end of the conversation, we had done what Obama had asked of us. I am not sure if she will use the information I give her on Monday to get a new job. What I do know is that while the criticism of American practice must not cease, those of us with a voice must SPEAK. When you go to these schools, what are you talking about? Why have you been so silent, and what are you proposing?

I only ask because I feel that unbeknownst to you, you may very well hold some of the answers we need to not only help Obama, but practice your first amendment rights and give us an installment of the Boondocks that helps to understand your perspective. You've definitely given us your perspective, but are there any solutions you can provide?

Just asking.

Signed,
Black Daria :/

P.S. My penmanship is of course nothing like that above, giving you a very Perez Hilton kind of feeling. By no means am I a biter, I just wanted you to know how I felt. Between you and Chuck Bass, there's room for full potential to be my man. Waiting for your call response.
