Certified Lover Boy?!

 Drake's new album "Certified Lover Boy" is Poppin! None other than the Lover Boy himself dropped his new album this past week and it's blowing up speakers everywhere...Got that "Hotline Bling."

Certified Lover Boy has not disappointed as the wait was worth this sixth album. The album doesn't just have dope lyrics but dope beats as well as I have some of the tracks on repeat just for the beat alone, as I'm asking "Who Made The Beats?!"

 He has a host of featured artists that also brings the fire from Lil Baby, Travis Scott, Giveon, Future, Jay-Z to a host of others that sends this album to its peak, no Drake didn't make this wave alone.  

  I'm already holding conversations with people about their thoughts on the album as we discuss our favorite tracks. And honestly, the whole album goes not just one track. But of course, everyone has that one track or two that they just gravitate, connect with, and vibe out to while listening to this joint. 

Moreover, this sixth album doesn't just spark conversation because of how it didn't disappoint but also because of the album cover which displays rows of pregnant women, which has people questioning the meaning behind it. He also has a track on his album called "Papi" which on this tracks The Lover Boy  says "To All My Sons Worldwide." Having people ask "what does Drake mean by that verse?" The funny thing is there are so many speculations and questions being asked about the album cover I can't cover them all \'.'/

Then you have other people asking does the album cover express the notion that Drake has had multiple women pregnant worldwide? As we should all know by now there is always a hidden message when it comes to these types of things...Lol We just have to wait and see will Drake speak on it. 

Nonetheless, if you haven't heard "Certified Lover Boy" yet do yourself a favor and check it out so you can catch that wave and feel the heat that everyone else is feeling right now before the end of Summer. Ijs ;.p  

P.S. For Those Who Listen From A Desktop or Laptop You'll Get To Hear The Music Playing Which Gets Changed Every Week.  

Let's Go Space Jam 2 "VS" Space Jam

 

So let's go there with the original "Space Jam Vs  Space Jam 2" because I'm part of the generation that was able to see and appreciate the original Space Jam that featured one of the most Prominent Basketball Players of his time the One and Only flight man himself Micheal Jordan. Now don't get me wrong I've recently watched both versions of Space Jam back to back and the new version featuring "King James" is of his own caliber.

 I've been a busy bee hearing the buzz as some people feel as though Warner Bros should have left Space Jam as it was with people asking " Why mess with perfection?" And asking questions "Like did we really need a Space Jam 2? And did LeBron bring that originality, like Jordan did in the original Space Jam?" And honestly, the reviews are mixed.

I can't lie LaBron James really took a chance playing that role behind Jordan 15 yrs later and I don't even think it was about Jordan when it comes to Space Jam2 I think it was that Space Jam was perfected and didn't need a second part yet you know the motto " money talk and bullcrap walks." None the less Space Jam 2 is of its time and I don't feel as though the two movies " part 2" can be compared to each other. I think part 2 is of its generation and that's what makes it unique despite some people calling the movie a flop. 

Then let's not forget when Micheal Jordan played in the original Space Jam movie unlike flexing like Paramount Pictures did in Space Jam2 with almost if not every character they've ever had making a cameo in Space Jam2  Warner Bros played a Strong hand in 1996 by incorporating the Looney Tunes into the Space Jam because in the 90's Looney Tunes apparel was trending and popular. Remember Lot29 and Ice Berg clothing?!  

And don't even get me started about Space Jam: Music from and Inspired by the Motion Picture and its All-Star list of Artists who was featured on it from R.Kelly "I believe I can fly," Monica " For You I Will" Seal "Fly Like A Eagle" etc. The original Space Jam soundtrack doesn't even come close to being compared to Space Jam 2 soundtrack. There's no competition between the two when it comes to the soundtracks because hands down the Original Space Jam soundtrack Reigns Supreme! 

Moreover, that leads me to Coming to America

And how it had me asking the same questions people were asking about Space Jam 2...Like all these years later did we really need a part 2 of Coming to America? I mean Coming to America itself was a classic on its own with "Soul Glo, Sexual Chocolate " and "The MacDowells" those scenes and characters along with the whole cast and script had me ROTF LMAO as a little girl, Eddie Murphy was just genius for that movie and when watching Coming to America 2 it just doesn't seem to hold the same Weight as the 1st Coming To America does as well as did yet then again I do understand it's not of my time but more so of today's generation and to them part 2 of Coming to America will be the classic of their time. I'm just grateful that my generation had the Best versions of both movies plus soundtracks and that I'm able to compare the two from then until now...Lol 

So I close with the ball in your court... As I ask your thoughts on the sequels Space Jam2 and Coming to America 2 along with the soundtracks for both movies.

Until Next Time "Power Up!" ;.)

Rob Kardasian and Blac Chyna?!

So, I thought the buzz would have died down by now about Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna but that hasn't seem to be the case for some months now. Especially, since rapper, the Game recently shared that he allegedly slept with Blac Chyna but not in those words. Seems like the shade is real...

 

Alright, so since Rob and Blac Chyna starting dating earlier in the year this web has seemed to just grow bigger and bigger, so let's try to make an attempt to untangle this weave. Shall we begin?!

So, we all know that Tyga (Blac Chyna's Baby daddy) dated Kylie Jenner back in 2014, who's Rob Kardashian's little sister because of Bruce Jenner who's currently known as Caitlyn Jenner. 

Tyga split from Blac Chyna after years and a son together before he began his relationship with Kylie Jenner. (Keep up with me..Lol)

Then seem's like shortly after the break up between Tyga and Kylie up sprang the relationship between Tyga's baby momma Blac Chyna and another Kardashian family member Rob, which whom remember is Kylie's brother thanks to Kris Jenner their mom. 

Moving along here, so while Tyga did not have any offspring while with his Jenner-Kardashian, his baby momma Blac Chyna did, which have since been a Big topic of discussion as far as water-cooler buzz.   

What are your thoughts?

Academy Awards Boycott

Well, All Happy 2016!

It has been a while but I've returned because of the heat this winter that's hit before Summer. However, before I jump into what's going on around town I'd like to Thank all my readers and listeners who view my blog for the good vibes as well as content ;.p

This Thanks Is To You! Emoji smiley face

Alright. Now, what brought me into RelatableTopics is the "Academy Awards" boycott controversy and I'd like to know what you all think about the matter. Do you favor that "Jada & Will" Love or do favor that "Aunt Viv" Love?


If you're not aware Jada & Will Smith as well as another high profile celebrity Spike Lee
 decided to boycott the Oscars this year due to the lack of racial diversity, which the Academy awards say they're coming up with a  resolution to find a way for the award show to be less distorted as far as diversity. Now is that to say they're admitting to not being racially fair in the past? Somewhat like the Grammy's?

Now as far as the boycott, Jada Pickett Smith spoke out saying " Minority actors, as well as actress, should not have to beg or plead for an Oscar award" while Spike Lee just plain out subbed the awards by stating " He and His wife Mrs. Lee will not be attending the Oscars awards this year" as to say "Thank you for the invite, but no thank you."

While on the other hand we have Janet Hurbert better know as "Aunt Viv" from the hit t.v. show  The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air firing off while not holding back stating" 26 years ago when she suggested the whole Fresh Prince of Bel-Air cast get together and ask for a raise, Will Smith stated, "my deal is my deal and ya'll deal is ya'll deal." This seems to suggest the Smiths now seek the same desire Ms.Hurbert was seeking 26 odd years ago, support within her culture.

Ms. Hurbert also went on to say "The Smiths are part of the snobbish Hollywood, they're boycotting" as she acknowledged world hunger, minorities dying as well as others struggling to pay their bills while telling the Smiths " ya'll motherfuc*ker's worried about celebrities and awards" just because Will Smith didn't win an Oscar award!

Mz. Janet stated she feels as though  Jada Pickett Smith is trying to stir up controversy from other "Blacktress's and Black actors" to stand with them as that could potentially jeopardize their careers if they join in the " Oscar" boycott with those who have made the decision not to attend the event. Unlike those who choose to be against the boycott such as Whoopi Goldberg as well as Chris Rock who will be hosting the awards.

 Ms.Hubert also goes on to state that Jada as well as her husband has made millions and millions of dollars from these same people they are making the choice to boycott. Moreover, according to Ms. Hubert that is an industry no, no.

Including that if anyone should have won an Oscar it should have been Idris Elba for his role in " Beast In No Nation." Which it is known Idris Elba certainly deserves an award for his performance.

Ms.Hubert did not hold her feelings back and in the end, she stated "The only Oscar she's worried about is Oscar Mayer wiener." Lmao

None the less when it comes to the Oscars "Academy" awards minorities are highly aware that the Oscars tend to favor actresses and actors who are not of minority descent unless the role involved unfavorable scripts.

Such as Holly Berry in " Monster Ball," comedian Monique for her role in "Precious," Denzel Washington in his role as a corrupt cop in "Training Day" and not to mention the First ever African American to win an Oscar Hattie McDaniel  who won supporting actress as a house slave in "Gone with the wind" back in 1939.




 In closing the Academy awards as of 2016 will have matured 88 years, so maybe it's time if it hasn't already been time for  the Academy awards to do as Spike Lee suggested back in 1989 and  "Do The Right Thing." 


As Always Thank You For Reading My Blog And May You Have A Prosperous 2016!  

Don't Forget To Support The NAACP Image Awards on February 5th on TVOne!  ✌

Celebrating 50 Years On One Station!?

I know it's been a minute, but if you're looking for one of the hottest radio stations to listen to right now it would definately be KJLH as they are celebrating 50 years on aire, on one station. Now who can top that!? In my Katt Williams voice I'll wait ...Lol

 

 KJLH have been playing some of the hottest music on radio since 1979 when Stevie Wonder
purchased the station from John Lamar Hill back in the 70's and ever since despite up's and down's the station had endured from limited signal reception, to competeing stations 102.3 has stood the test of time.

102.3 is one of the only stations in my opinion that continuously plays some of the Hottest R&B tracks out today as well as artist, but I'm not suprised being that Stevie Wonder owns the station and as he stated in Sir Dukes 

"Music is a world within itself

With a language we all understand
With an equal opportunity
For all to sing, dance and clap their hands
But just because a record has a groove
Don't make it in the groove
But you can tell right away at letter A
When the people start to move" 

Listening to KJLH brings back so many great memories for me. I think back to when I was a little girl waking up on Sunday mornings to KJLH playing gospal on the radio as my grandmother cooked breakfast and got ready for church. We would listen to KJLH all the way to church as it was the only FM station that played gospal on Sundays as they still do today on Sundays and we loved it. As I still love it and listen to it presently today.

Kindness, Joy, Love and Happiness is what KJLH stands for and that's the exact feeling I recieve when I listen to this station and I'm so happy for them. I wish them 50 more years on aire as I enjoy the station and the good vibes the station sends out on the aire waves. Congrates to 102.3 as the station celebrates it's 50th anniversary.

As Always Thanks For Reading Blog! Until Next Time ;.p

Pacquiao?! Vs. Mayweather?!

Well, Time Have Finally Brought Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. Together At Last In One Of The Most Anticipated Fights Since Floyd Mayweather Jr. Fighting Oscar Dela Hoya Back In May of 2007... 

Tonight's fight between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. has been one of the most anticipated fights of all times being considered "The Fight Of The Century" mostly because of time and circumstance.    

Back six years ago Floyd Mayweather Jr. refused to fight Manny Pacquiao because he believed Pacquiao was taking steroids while Mayweather Jr. had domestic violence accusations against him both postponing the fight until a later time and now that time has finally arrived. Tonight on May2, 2015 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada circumstances have changed and these two Welterweight Weight boxers will step foot in the ring for the first time ever with it being hard to till which Boxer is gonna take the belt.



Yet, whoever does win this fight being it Pacquiao or Mayweather will win a newly created belt by the WBC. The belt will be valued at 1 million is an exact replica of the current belt except it has thousands of emeralds in place of the gold plating for the center logo. The belt also contains both Pacquiao and Maywaethers Jr. faces, along with faces of former WBC president Jose Sulaiman and boxing Legend Muhammad Ali.
   

So, who's the official beer sponsor for this fight? Tecte, beating out Corona's 5.2 million bid with a bid of 5.6 million. ( So, for all you Corona drinkers, looks like you'll have to find another beach tonight..Lol) Tecte will be holding down these rounds. Tecte's logo will be the ring's center moniker during tonight's fight, also being visible on all the fight promotional advertisements.


And with that ya'll I'm out to prep for the fight tonight! I'm Team Mayweather tonight just in cause one may be curious to know ;.p

             
            As Always! Thanks For Reading My Blog! And Before You Go...

                                                          Rep Your Team

                                             Team Mayweather  or Team Pacquiao
