Robyn Pays Tribute To Björk And Her Hyperballad

Yesterday, at this years Polar Music Prize Ceremony, Björk was honored with the title award and to further celebrate her work, Bjork was given a tribute by Swedish pop star, Robyn, who performed "Hyperballad." With her pixie voice, Robyn near perfectly captured the softness of this twisted love song and nearly sends Bjork into tears by the end of the song. It's such an awwwww moment and a deserved one for such a beautifully talented artist.

Joi Conquers Led Zeppelin's "Dazed & Confused"

They say one of the marks of a true artist is the ability to take someone else's song or genre and make it your own. If that's true then Joi is an artist in the truest sense of the word, adeptly handling the classic Led Zeppelin song "Dazed & Confused" during a performance at Littlefield in Brooklyn, NY. Accompanied by her boyfriend, Devon Lee, on guitar and the rest of her funky band, Joi rocks this performance and sends the audience into a dark, sexual and mesmerizing fervor. And of course, it doesn't hurt that she uses skintight, holey, gold leggings to help her do so. Mmmmmm ;-)



Joi Covers Sade's "Cherish The Day"

Legendary ATLien singer, Joi, takes Sade's classic "Cherish The Day" and gives it a dark, funky spin during a performance at Pal's Lounge at the One MusicFest after party.




Jada Pinkett & Tupac Shakur - "My Brother, Father-Figure"




I love seeing friendships like theirs. It just seems so powerful and beautiful. I want to have that same impact on my close friends around me. I want that kind of friendship that only comes around once in a lifetime. I hope I can achieve that.

Kanye West, Nicki Minaj and some other rappers - Monster




Honestly, no one else on this track matters. Nicki Minaj just stole the show, ripped the track and shut every other rap *woof woof* down! Nicki's finally finding her voice and she's not just rapping, she's ROARING!

Chanel Iman - The (Androgynous) Other Woman

Supreme model, Chanel Iman makes androgyny look 10x more chic in the latest editorial for Allure magazines September issue. "The Other Women," plays with the idea of masculinity and femininity, mixing shots of sophisticated and girly clothing with the bold tailoring of men's inspired clothes. And though she's channeling both her masculine and feminine sides, Chanel has never looked more womanly or mature. Her beauty is evidently growing and as it stands it's strong enough to handle both a man's and a woman's clothing.

Steph Jones - The GAYS Are Coming!!!




I like this guy. I wish more straight men were like him. There really is nothing like an open-minded and accepting straight man. I've been lucky enough to find more than a few in my lifetime and 2 of them are part of my inner circle of close friends. So kudos to the comfortable and accepting straight guys. Your acceptance and support for us makes more of a difference than you may be able to comprehend. You're the shit in my book.

Atlanta's latest duo, Hot Heavy & Bad (consisting lovers and musical partners Devon Lee and Nic E. Rock favorites Joi Gilliam) have released the video for their first single "One," filmed at Pal's Lounge in the heart of Downtown Atlanta. It's old school, it's naughty and a little dark in nature. I dig it.

Alanis Morissette - Unsent



Since her meteoric and angst ridden debut, Alanis Morissette has always been known for sharing the ups and (many, many) downs of her relationships in her songs but on the track "Unsent" she digs past the emotional pain of her failed relationships and finds a peaceful resolution with her past loves. Born around the idea of writing letters of closure to her many exes, "Unsent" presents itself as one of the most revealing and heartfelt songs I've ever heard in my life. It takes a wise and brave one to look back at their past relationships and accept the strengths and weaknesses of both themselves and their former partners. I can admit that I've made many similar mistakes when it comes to the men I've chosen. I've had my own versions of Matthew(s), Jonathon and Lou and learned many things about myself from each of them. And one day I hope to find the same closure with most of them that Alanis has found with her former beaus.

After Sex Convo With Zoe Saldana & Mila Kunis




Last week I watched this movie with my GGF, formerly known as the blogger, Chaseology, and I was pleasantly blown away at how cute, inclusive and amazing this movie was. After Sex is a film that centers on the conversations that people have with each other after they've had sex. The movie focuses on six couples of all different sexualities and backgrounds and ranges in content from heartfelt drama to hilarious comedy. In the clip above is a segment of the film focusing on the same sex relationship between two roommates, played by Zoe Saldana and Mila Kunis. One is a heterosexual who enjoys getting "head" while the other is questioning her sexuality and likes giving "head." Now I'm quite gay but after watching this clip I can say with all honesty that I would gladly watch these two "explore" their sexuality any day of the week. Besides this steamy bit of hot same-sex action, this movie is filled with great stories, hot bodies, and thought-provoking themes about love, gender and sex. I highly recommend this. Watch the trailer below.


Move The Fuck On....



Like my father, I'm one of those people that loves mysteries, questions and enigmas. I love seeing the overarching themes of things and putting the pieces together. When I look at people and situations I tend to do the same thing. I try to make the pieces fit. But sometimes I come across situations that don't make sense to me because I can't configure the pieces the way I want to. I can't complete the puzzle or finish the picture. When this happens it rattles my and I agonize over it. But there are some things that I can't fix, things I that I cannot make happen....There are things that I cannot make happen...and the reality is, some things should never be.
