...Old School Mowry Twins

...you know this was yo song...I just never knew Tia & Tamera were in this group haha
This song/video better than some of the bullshit we hear now-a-days...smh

...Dear Mama

...So Effin Rude

Sometimes all an artist wants is respect from their hometown...
..Wale is the one person besides Tabi Booney who is really trying hard to rep D.C. and display its unique style of Go-Go music to the nation. So - why would the hometown radio station start throwing shot at him when he's technically trying to do THEM a favor. He wants D.C. to be musically respected, he wants to bring them home a GRAMMY and all you can do is refuse to play his songs and disrespect the man...?
I know radio stations still have a serious case of Payola fever running rampid [which is why the unfortunate listeners hear the same 20 songs everyday]. Radio is supposed to be the outlet of the people and a beacon of a city...instead we get things like this....click the link to hear the foolishness
Shame on you 93.9 WKYS

COMMERCIAL FOUND HERE

...This Is So Sad...

I understand that she committed a terrible crime...but given her circumstances - I don't believe she should've gotten life without parole plus four years?...now she's 29 and knows the error of her ways and she has no chance of redeeming herself...

...You Can See Chelsea's Halo

...It's everywhere - but I thought it was very pretty
Chelsea has cancer and she basically dedicated the song to her. Crowd was crying and such
...see....Beyonce does love the people...

...The Impossible Dream

Just random I wrote down while listening to co-workers, Twitter, my brain, and family complain about the state of the country's finance and employment issues


At a young age we were always told "You can be whatever you want to be!"
Go to school, work hard, and you'll always accomplish your dreams
...Happiness is just a hop, skip, and a jump away...
So you follow the protocol to end up depressed anyway
Spent all this time learning something I'll never use
Spending money that I didn't have to supply those tools
All so I can be in debt to a system that won't hire me.
If I do manage to slip through the cracks
One way or another they'll find a reason to fire me
Budget cuts, discipline problem from 5 years ago or I was a half second late
All so they can save face while I can't afford to pay for my place
Now it's back to the drawing board, sleeping on my mother's living room floor,
Rummaging through my things in trash bags 'cause I don't have a room with drawers.
This country should be immaculate, makes me wish I was an immigrant.
If I didn't speak English maybe I could get health benefits
Bitch I'm the one with the Masters Degree & Ph.D
While you hop off the boat right to work without shoes on your feet
I'm the motherfucker that's overqualified, like its a sin for me to wanna survive
Meanwhile niggaz that cant read or spell is out here living well
Now if I hit the streets it be just my luck the cops would grab me on the same day
Now instead of making bread I'm tryna make bail and its like the dumb shit never ends
I got too much respect to become a stripper or a hooker but they stay making money off these men with no women or morals and it hurts...
I shouldn't complain because there's plenty worse off, but I don't want to despise going to work
I just wanna be happy one day, the smile on my face natural and permanent
...unfortunately its not just a hop, skip, and jump away...
They lied

...GROSS!!!

YOOOOO!!! Look at this creature some children found in Panama City....

They can't verify what it is. They think it could be a hairless sloth or of course...what we always think things are we don't previously know about...an alien...I hope they find out soon

...[city love] Straight Outta Philly

Ok so first off...I somehow allowed myself to get sucked into going out every night since Wednesday - but it was ALL good. It all started on a Saturday though when I went to see the performance of MURS and the hometown group WRITTENHOUSE.
They're a phenomenal group that will win you over just by their live show. They don't use a CD with tracks, they crank the beats right on stage for the people. The lead rapper CK doesn't spit that usual "bang bang my gun hang and swang" shit - it's just real unadulterated Hip Hop and we need more stuff like this out in the world. If you've never heard of them check the Main Website
and as a treat...grab they latest mixtape SUNSHINE PHILADELPHIA VOL. 2
I PROMISE you'll love it...it has the Ashley stamp of approval
Don't believe me? ...catch some live footage

One of my fav songs Inna Lite

Indeed check them out...and Philly support ya fellow natives...in this world of crabs tryna pull each other down - somebody's gotta help each other up...

..Shower Scene Gon Wrong

...fuckin...DJ Jay Skillz [hit the name to follow him on Twitter], told me to watch this because he made a reference to it during the day...I'm a bit scared of this man...Someone stop this man from crying - PLEASE

...My Flippin Eye Candy

You probably know him from the Tyler Perry sitcom "Meet The Browns"
or also as Eva Pigford's fiancee

Either way...all I know is this dark handsome gentleman is muthafuckin sexy

...point, blank, period.....BITCH

...Get Yo Ass Outta Here...

..so how bout them EAGLES?!...I know it was just the first game...and it was against the Panthers...but STILL...they killed em. And yet again McNabb has injured himself. He broke some ribs, Andy Reid has high hopes he will be ok to play soon...I also hope so since Kolb looked like an asshole on the field and Vicks suspension isn't over yet...lets get it together and keep that momentum tho!

As the whole world knows, the VMA's had their wonderful moments of randomness - but I swear they need to get a handle on the security of the stage...niggaz shouldn't be able to just stroll up there when its not they time, or somehow climb up the decorations like a prior year...
This years incident involved none other then everyones favorite Temper Tantrum thrower - Kanye West

People may agree with what he said, but it wasn't the time to do it. He could've just let Taylor have her moment of winning her first moon man and leave her be. Maybe if someone asked him about his feelings later- fine...but things like that are to be expected from Kanye...like the European Music Awards..

But I give him credit - he knows Who & Who NOT to do that shit to...anyone else would've probably knocked the shit out of him on stage. But he's not the only one who ever felt they needed to speak at the wrong time...I know ya'll ain't forget Wu-Tang is for the chil-ren? And that nigga was at the GRAMMY's...

...Quagmire - Giggidy Giggidy

A Philly Club song for the greatest pervert on television
Saw Uristocrat posted it...found it amusing and had to do it
Click the name for his Twitter and also Stumble Upon his website

...Thundercats HOOOOO!

...Apparently...this is how the Thundercats would go if remade in 2009
They even got a Twitter

If Thundercats had Twitter

...She Giving Piff A Bad Look

Either she lying about what she smoked, or she just don't need to do it
Apparently this woman was too high to drive, so she does the logical thing by making her 6 year old drive her car .... From the looks of things...she on some shit

If you gonna do anything...
1.) Your child shouldn't witness or have any idea of your extra curricular activities
2.) If you can't get a handle over whatever it is you do and have the coordination to get you and your child home - you shouldn't of done it in the first place

It was HIGHLY irresponsibile of her in many ways and it's things like this that make people thing badly on people who do partake of the Marijuana. Whatever they decide to do with her is well deserved.

FULL STORY HERE

...Fav Song Of The Moment

It's raining in the great city of Philadelphia. What better song to play?
Yes I know New Edition did the original...but this one is SEXY!!!...I love it
Can You Stand The Rain

...Yes, Jesus Loves Meeee

...I found this hilarious.
The black people jam the fuck out tho...they remix is hot haha
And we gotta remember our Latino friends as well!

Obama Time

So everyone in the world who loves Obama was outraged when it appeared his extended hand was blatantly ignored by the Russians, but apparently - pointed out by @Cirle1ne - it was not a snubb, but basically Obama introducing everyone. He's not required to shake hands because he's the host and just doing his job as one.
I keep watching the video in hopes that it can appear that way, but I'm not only looking at the mannerisms but also Obama's facial expression. To me it looks like he's disappointed and at one point it seems his hand is waiting for a follow up extend from the other party...but if that's not the case - I won't dwell on it....can't always assume EVERYONE is a racist

Speaking of Obama...
Today he wanted to give a speech to the youth for their technical first day of school.
I personally don't understand the problem, and why sooo many people found it to be a bad thing and any means for controversy. I believe I read that some networks even refused to air the speech because it would cost too much money to rearrange the regular television line-up. They wanted teachers to show it in class when he began - which makes sense since those very students are who he's speaking to - but that's a problem.
We right now have a President who had inherited probably one of the most disastrous problems in recent times to clean up, everyone is ready to crucify this man for trying to make not just our but HIS country a better place, and continue to fulfill the idea that America is the "Promised Land." One of our major problems is our school systems..Obama just wants to reach out as much as possible to encourage these young people to strive for what they believe in, make goals for themselves and accomplish them, to not be discouraged if something doesn't click for them as quickly as others, to not allow themselves to constantly be considered "the problem child" and excel even when others say you will fail...whats so wrong with that?
Despite what some people think, these children that you think don't need to hear another Obama speech probably do because THEY are the future...those same illiterate bastards the system is letting pass just so they don't repeat a grade for the 5th time could be your illiterate ass doctor prescribing you whatever the fuck he feels// the uneducated politician writing all of your laws because it's not about what you know it's WHO you know how much money you have, and the "grind" you made to get to the top// your future IRS or SSI calculator who will steal your check when you get older if it even still exists because "mayne, they ol n i gots shit Ica do wit dat".. or just plain ol Bob up the block who dropped out of school and yes ya'll grew up together, but he's hungry and he's gonna rob you
You complain children don't have a positive role model, and we find an individual who is striving to lead by example and you bash him for it. We find a President who is willing to let the world in on every policy he creates, damn near any document that passes through his fingers, and wants YOUR input on how we can all save this country...and you wanna say he talks too much...takes up too much TV time? But if he just did shit without saying anything then you'd have EVEN MORE shit to say
I didn't hear anyone complaining when Bush dumb ass was on TV talking about a war and he didn't even know the details...or even how to read the damn teleprompter...ugh..

..I swear some people won't be happy until George W. Bush comes back or McCain gets in office.
Anyone that has sooo much to say about Barack should ask themselves if they could even fathom being in his position...you have to clean up someone elses mess then try and keep your own agenda in line within 4 years with no money on a budget of possibly trillions of dollars...
I find it unfair and downright rude how they're treating this man...but it comes with the territory
..I just hope soon people will realize the BIGGER picture..
In case you missed it, here's the Back To School Speech

...I Hope She Gets Better

...it's just REAL sad what drugs can do to people.
She had a promising career and now, she looks like a bum broad that could clean up well
...she flying off the handle on boul, cuz she knows they know who she is
I just hope the guy driving isn't really gonna kick her ass....
It's circulating that she's addicted to Crystal Meth, but apparently it's also known she is mentally ill [schizophrenia] and refuses to take her medication
Get Better Maia Campbell...

...Never Let A Crackhead Sing At Church

...the title speaks for itself...

...She Gettin It In

Madam CJ's fav playlist of songs until her songs have been copywritten and such. Her at a recent open mic night and as always - she performed like it was her own concert...but that's just how she does it...gotta prove yourself even when nobody is watching.
A relationship theme with the songs:

*Ordinary People - John Legend
*Need U Bad - Jazmine Sullivan
*Next Lifetime - Erykah Badu
*Rock Wit U - Michael Jackson

...Say What You Want

It was the wrong person to say it, since everyone thinks she's a spotlight hungry retard..
...but to be honest...she's RIGHT
Despite the ways Castro & Hitler used their intellect, you can't deny that they were indeed brilliant people.

Castro is noted in his own biography to be intellectually gifted and from a wealthy family. You can't be stupid to have total control over an entire country for almost 50 years! With his brain power and stubborn determination he embodies the qualities [when used correctly] equal a great leader. No - everyone doesn't agree with his tactics, the things he felt were right did harm to his people, but you can't tell me YOU can hold the power of a country whether through war or fear without being overthrown

Hitler who wasn't rich or a scholar, wanted to be an artist, didn't finish school and gained an interest in politics. To go from a broke nobody to the voice a a vast group of people whom he had influenced - is brilliant. What he lacked in education he made up for with Public Speaking and the power of persuasion. Yes - his views led to a full genocide of a religion/people...but YOU can't tell me you can cause a movement as great and drastic as his. He started his own political party and made it the majority, he started a war that took over the whole world basically...

I don't condone either of these individuals actions, they brought great devastation to those who were the victims of their rule - but in hindsight you CANNOT deny their genius - even if used for diabolical reasons.

Here's Aubreys moment before the other people got upset and cut her off
