What I See: Lil Wayne: How to Love

Wow - Now I'm a Lil Wayne Fan to begin with. Not one of his hard core groupies but I recognize that the dude has talent. His word play is the coldest. But after watching this video I might have to upgrade my status to groupie. Am I exaggerating? Maybe you didn't see what I saw. In the beginning of the video there's a woman on what I presume to be an operating table about to get an abortion. She chooses not to and haves a daughter who grows up witnessing the mom being abused,her father is incarcerated, she is actually abused herself and becomes a little promiscuous which eventually leads to teenage pregnancy, stripping prostitution and the doctor who would have aborted her, telling her she is HIV positive. DAMN. Mid video Wayne switches it up and shows the father being there in the daughter's life and it's a completely different outcome. Now I'm not going to get all over the brothers although the message here is obvious. TAKE CARE OF YOUR KIDS! But to all of you having sex - please protect yourselves and if an unplanned pregnancy occurs and you choose life. CHOOSE LIFE! Do everything in your power to give that baby, your child, everything that you can. I could go on and on - but I won't the message is obvious.

Love,
Latina Renee

Book Review: Bitch is the New Black by Helena Andrews

I read this book because a friend suggested it to me. She told me that some of the things the author wrote sounded like things I would say... And I agree. The book is absolutely hilarious and a must read for any mid 20s to late 30s African American female to read.

For My Writters

I like to write and I've been working on completing my first novel. For those of you who enjoy writing as well, I found the following article very informative.

Basketball Wives: Tami vs. Evelyn

Okay - I don't keep up with Basketball Wives. I don't know why. I mean when I do catch it on the tube it's entertaining in that "these hoes are stupid" kind of way but I must admit - I've yet to set my U-verse up to record it. Anywho, today at work my co-worker was telling me about the foolishness that popped off between Tami and Evelyn and so I had to go and research it. In my opinion - Evelyn's trouble making ass could have kept that info to herself. I mean you claiming you didn't know he was married and now they're divorced so what's your point? Unless of course she knew all along she was the side chick and just didn't care and now that Tami's a part of their 'circle' the *ish was tearing away at her conscience. Anyway peep the vid.

New Music

There's been a lot of buzz around the net about this new artist Timothy Bloom. When I opened this video I was like wtf? The video does not speak to me but the song I absolutely LOVE! What y'all think?
