  • As folks chuck it up they fail to ask, “Why do Blacks believe that they don’t have ‘good hair?” “Where did the term “good hair” come from?” The root of the problem is over a century old and no one likes to discuss it because folks get “uncomfortable.” When people can’t face the truth about a situation, how can they expect to address the problem?02012/02/17

After looking at that and long ass list, over 80 damn categories, my money is on the already, highly profiled artists to walk away with the tainted statues. Talented artists will be looked over for another year as the WOS continue to bullshit America into thinking that talented artists actually have a chance to be noticed and given proper attention.

  • Set in the near future, this film reflects much of what is currently happening in the reality of 2010 - 2011. Luke (Cuba Gooding, Jr.) is living in a world where corporations run shit. Almost every aspect of human life has been purchased for Corporation gain. After Luke was involved in a fatal car crash that killed his wife and unborn child, he was laid up in the hospital after having his life saved by a chip implanted in22011/01/05

  • I was not sure if I'd like this film. Not into the boxing stories and was not sure how Mark Wahlberg would be pulling of a biographical film. I'm glad to say that I was happily surprised on both counts. Not only did Wahlberg do a bang up job; the story of Micky Ward was fucking interesting. Holy Crap!22011/01/05

  • This movie was amazing. The drama. The action. Oh, yeah, and the chance to see stupid people put in their place. Frank Barnes (Denzel Washington), a veteran engineer, has been fired and told to train his replacement, Will Colson (Chris Pine). While getting to know his replacement, Barnes (28-years of experience) finds out that Colson is only four months out of training.

  • Despite all that the mainstream theatres say about caring how the consumers feel, they still find a greater need to keep shareholders happy and well financed.

  • Another pre-label album (EP) and this dude has made his career as a remake artist. Yes he has a nice voice but let's call a spade a spade. The majority of his albums are remakes. Nothing new.

  • I kept my thoughts on Bruno Mars minimized until I heard his own project. He was featured on another artist's single and the video annoyed me, but I gave Mars a chance anyway. So far I do not regret that decision. The album was alright, nothing that would light the airwaves on fire for more than the paid month or so. This kid is nothing to turn away from as he clearly has talent. The question is will he get lost22010/11/22

  • "Loosely based on" is quickly becoming the catch phrase for we only used the names of the characters and books/games/shows that people loved and screwed them. I've never played or even heard of the video game series, Max Payne, and I wish I never heard of the film either.02010/11/12

  • Ne-yo seems up in arms over the latest album of his being released "early" to the American public but I don't see what the big deal is. Oh, yeah - sales. Well, let's see if all the drama is worth it or should the album have simply been placed on semi-permanent hold like J-Lo's last non-release.02010/11/11

  • Cee Lo Green has returned with his latest album and he's not joking with the dance music. I had to calm myself down and listen to the lyrics (as a responsible reviewer would do) and prepare an honest reaction to the total package. Not being persuaded by the music. Fuck You is the ultimate theme song for all geeks and non-sexual objects that never got the opportunity to be loved by the objects of their desires. Green32010/11/09
