Friday Specials: King Mag review & the Afterparty, Cisqo is back (whoa) and other interesting tidbits you need...

Hi Kids-

***Please note: This post was edited and updated today, May 22...I am trying to get things together to do this more efficiently, but I appreciate your patience!***

It's been an awfully busy week. Mom's graduating with her Master's degree, parties galore and lots of chit chat.

So, where should I begin? Let's start with Datwon's party @ the 40/40:

Shay called me on Monday and said that Datwon Thomas from King was having a party on Tuesday...she didn't know the location, just that Charlemagne (from the Wendy Williams Experience) suggested she attend...so I got on my publicist game and started making some calls, which resulted in getting the skinny and making sure we were taken care of once we got there.


Couple of notable flicks:





Didn't see him...but I am starting to have a crush on Jeezy...or something like that...kinda glad I didn't see him, I'm in between old and new eyewear and contacts, and had no make-up so I wasn't feeling so ultra sexy...




Hen Roc and I go back to the Bad Boy intern days...I was a publicity intern and he worked with the street team...we'd go to party's in Liz's car, who was the video intern, attempting to crash with our IDs from Bertelsmann/BMG (when the offices were at 1540 Broadway) The 8th floor cafe had the BOMB ass buffalo wings...but with our $40/week salary as interns, we were lucky to cop that...metrocards were $17 bucks back then (1999) so it was all about pizza and understanding parents who'd give us an extra $20...wow, what a long ways we've come and still grinding! Good to see you Hen Roc...do you remember these stories I am telling?






This was a ridiculously awkward flick, as we were on the steps with about a million other people. I almost fell a few times, stepped on some poor girl's foot (she said "Damn ma, I think you broke skin") and it was just too much...I was like let's please get out of here before I embarrass myself. And Charlemagne, I don't appreciate you pushing past me to get Big Baby up to Datwon...still love you though ;)

Other folks in the building: Like Dat (Darra), NY Giants players (sorry I know NONE of you AT ALL as I do not have a clue about football beyond the fact that my Aunt is a big Dallas Cowboys fan and my dad was as well so I had the pajamas as a kid...my bad, tangent.) D Woods (very sweet girl who introduced herself to Shay) Meagan Good who I didn't see, but had I would have told her to check her girl at one of the other blogs I frequent who is a hater...damn another tangent...oh and of course I was there. I can't put the pic up with Shay and I, I look busted...I'ma get it together. Maybe that's why Johnny Nunez only took 13 pictures for wireimage.com? Hmmm. Anyway, you can check out other flicks on Crunk & Disorderly



ON TO MYST...


We went to Myst afterwards, where we saw:








DJ Kid Capri...hey, can you go spin down in ATL for a party? Call me! It was quite the hood fabulous event...haven't been to one like that in a while...packed with millions of people including this stink dude whom I politely asked about the birthday cake sitting in his area...I know you are out there and you need to watch yourself. K, bitch? Yes...you know I called that right too...

*Breathing* We had a lot of fun with Charlemagne and the crew...I was done for the rest of the week. We were doing way too many things...but nonetheless, good stuff. Let me hurry so I can get to my next post...here's some other stuff:





Schoolboy's Haircut is a big problem...

Is there nothing better for school officials to do than to harass this young man for a hair cut? I don't see any gang signs so what exactly is the issue here? Please. I smell a lawsuit. Word.





Did-dy...do it?

I debated on posting this link, however, Diddy has been quite the talkpiece this week...first, we have The Fake Janice Combs site, which is quite the chuckle. I mean, you tell me. Then, Diddy tried to beat up poor little Laurie Ann Gibson, his choreographer the past few seasons on Making the Band (yeah, another is coming...I know...) however, did Michael Bivins hit you? What gives him the balls? That Diddy juice is contagious...




D-list notes:


Often people call my own clients d-z listers, so these stories always interest me...especially because what's the A-list doing anyway? They are BORING. Think about it...do you see Will Smith getting his papparazin' on? NO. Not only because he has a good publicist (actually phenomenonal) but because what does he have time to toil about and get written up on? Pays (read: PAYS) to have a tight ship. So...Are Ice-T and Coco on the D-list or something? Hmmm.




OK, another post brews...and eventually I will catch up daily...stay with me!


Kisses,
NP/PG ;)

Tuesday Going-Ons...KRS-ONE, Usher Pulls a Trump and all this other mess you are obsessed with...

Hi Kids!

Disclaimer: I'm happy to say I've learned how to place clips such as videos on here, but I still have yet to grasp the concept of creating links that don't take you away from my page...I am working on it, so bear with me...thanks! :)

Let's start with the Clip of the Day:



So, because we are pretty much in the midst of a silent genocide to end Hip-Hop (today I will blame Nas...just kidding), who should the major media networks call so they can attempt to try to make a mockery of something that "is the most giving community in the history of American pop culture," according to Russell Simmons (courtesy of "Do You"). I'm not too sure what the journalist was trying to accomplish, but I just can't deal with any more rappers trying to defend hip-hop to people who will clearly never understand the meat and potatoes of it.

Open letter to all Rappers:

Hello Bitches and Hoes Rap Community:

Hi! Some of you know me, and some of you don't. That's OK, that's the purpose of writing letters.

Over the past few weeks, I've seen a flurry of you jump to get the chance to state your case on shows such as 60 minutes, Fox News and the like...and well, you guys are making me just a tad nervous. You see, some people who didn't grow up the way you did, have a pretty hard time understanding your lyrics. Just look at video shown above behind KRS-ONE, does that song even contain the N-word in it (help me out Nelly, I can't remember, and I only have seen the BET edit version)? Or was it that we looked "niggardly" enough to make the arguments these folks put up on a daily basis.

Well...I think KRS-ONE has a point, so it makes me wonder who casted the first stone against Hip-Hop in all this? So my reccomendation as a publicist is to come up with some fancy-smancy answer to these folks, and it should just basically say "Hey guy, I don't wanna be involved." I just don't think you guys should respond to this tomfoolery, as I only see it as a way for them to try to control the one thing we have fought hard to keep in the family...and that would be Hip-Hop.

So, please. Don't cave in to their alterior motives. Or we may find yet another plane crash with another great, or better yet, a "War" (read: Dipset) resulting in us losing yet another person whom some kid out there is motivated enough to want to change their lives and not just gang bang like they want us to believe.

Think about it. Get at me...let's talk about it.

With Scratches and Beats,
PG
********************************
OK, done with the PSA...onto the goings-on this weekend:

Usher Fires (or retires) Mom as Manager and Publicist, Effective Immediately

Usher really lets it burn with his mom. According to this article on CNN.com, there's no hard feelings. Damn, you have a dope publicist. What a great buildup to this album...way to bring it home. Then on my ride this morning I read that he's also released Simone Smalls as publicist. I happen to know who the new publicist is, but I need to check in with them to make sure it's cool for me to reveal that, so I'll let you know...

Sanjaya's New York's Next Candidate for Companionship?

So since I didn't watch American Idol but I did watch some of the news on this guy, I simply can't imagine why...I just cant. If they put this Sanjaya kid on I Love New York, I am cancelling my cable subscription...OK, I think that's too drastic. But you tell me...they aren't serious, right?

Paris...oh Paris...

It appears Paris is not ready to be someone's bitch, so she's appealing her 45 day jail sentence...but gee, something made me think you'd like being someone's bitch...

Chris Brown's Sweet 18

Chris Brown had a party Sunday night, but I wasn't there so I'm not talking about it and I don't want to post any pictures. Go to YBF for that. YBF hates me because I like to talk about grammar alot in the comments section, but that's OK, I still read her blog...gives me a good laugh and is somewhat knowledgable. Hopefully my ass-kissing earns me a spot on her hot blogs list...we shall see.

Tonight will be Bobby Valentino's album release party...I'll let you know how that goes. Wednesday I got Buckeey coming into town for a photo shoot and Amy Winehouse's event...should be a real cool look...I'll let you know about that too...

Blog & Web Watchin'

What team are you on exactly, DL? Was this your big chance to get a job with Jay Leno? Hmm...I did laugh, but I don't think he needed to say all of this (YBF)

When did Solange Knowles change her baby's name to Juelz? I thought his name was Daniel. I really busted out laughing when I saw this. I mean, it's a good idea and all, but can the kid have the childhood his aunties didn't? Dayum!
(allhiphop.com, via C & D)

Ron Artest gets Community Service for Beating his wife. Sorry, I just couldn't come up with anything witty since I don't condone Domestic Violence.
(ESPN)

Does anyone care? I mean everybody knows you aren't famous until someone says your gay, right? (Hip and Pop)

That's all for now folks...make it a great week!I've figured out where these bloggers are getting pics so I'll have some more visuals next post...thanks for reading!

~NP/PG ;)

Thursday Chit Chat: Busta Bust-ed...S.O.S. on Maia Campbell and other stuff your nosy selves wanna know...

Hi Kids!

Sorry I missed yesterday, I just had too many things on my plate, but boy are folks really out there doing some thangs! I looked around to see what publicity snafus have been going about...here are some things that are going on:

Maia…oh Maia :(

So, I came across this on Philly.com today. Seems that Maia Campbell is really caught up in the drug game…so much that she stole someone’s car! I was first sent the clip of Maia singing in some type of lingerie for Crack Cocaine back in late 2006 and was like…DAYUM. But this is way out of control, so if anyone knows her, please try to help her. Call former management, publicists, LL Cool J, someone..She’s beautiful and talented, and she must be in immense pain to be doing this to herself. Her talented mother Bebe Moore Campbell died a day after her 30th birthday according to this report...I hope we find her before it's too late.

Busta Busted.

You just can’t get a break. So Busta was pulled over on the West Side Highway(were you coming from that Hennessey event downtown?) and arrested because a smell of alcohol adorned his breath. *sigh* You do know that you are going to jail, right? OK, just checking…oh and when’s your album coming out? Because there must be a reason why you are doing dumb stuff. And I like you, my brother likes you so…let’s get it together.

Usher don’t want his mama to be his manager no mo’
According to Rush & Molloy, Usher is letting his management relationship 'burn' with his momma. You have to scroll past the Jay leno story…but that’s worth a read too…Usher’s reps are denying this, so…we shall see…I’ve read on other blogs that Tameka Foster, Usher’s fiancée and Momma don’t really get along. I don’t know these people, so I can’t confirm that. Guess we will see what happens.

Charm School Girls party it up at the China Club

Seems like Charm School is out for spring break! Leilene (Smiley) and Darra (Like Dat) did it up at John Gungie Rivera’s infamous Friday night party @ China Club...

Who's Gonna Move into 50's Crib?

Seems 50 cent is done with Conneticut. Reports say he’s selling his 52-room mansion...And yep...there are stripper poles there…and don’t ask me how I know that...


Blog Watchin’

Solange says “I’m Next” to the tune of Management at MusicWorld
(C & D)

We know Perez loathes Beyonce, but uh…I am confused about this one too (Perez Hilton)

Ooooh…Jay-Z (In my Maury voice) You ARE the FATHER! (sandrarose.com)

This is just a mess (tmz.com)

Off to make things happen! This Russell Simmons book has gotten me very motivated :) I promise to give a full review when I’m done.

Ciao!
~PG/NP ;)

Tuesday Talk: Neyo, ?uestlove and some other good stuff to read...

I was all set to put up my post last week, and now I feel it’s kinda outdated…so here’s some new stuff to talk about…

?uestlove detained at Buffalo Airport

How could they do this to the drumming teddy bear?


Apparently because he was carrying more cash than the average negro, he was detained for nearly an hour, then further humiliated when he got on the plane and the flight attendant decided to let everyone know that he was the reason the plane had been delayed.
Hard to be Black in America...meow.

Ne-yo Parties here and there...Ne-yo, Ne-yo EVERYWHERE!

Ne-Yo has his Album Release Last Night at the Ecko Loft on 23rd Street…I debated on going but after talking to the label rep, I gracefully declined and decided to watch Run’s House instead. I love the Simmons girls but I can’t help but notice the sadness in Justine’s eyes...I hope as time passes, things will get better, although I am sure they already have.

Back to Neyo real quick. So, I am slightly annoyed with the revolution that are these "fake" events for the fans. I mean, I guess I am UBER spoiled when it comes to these things...I haven't paid for an event since...I can't even tell you when. But tonight, they are having this event for Neyo at Avalon, which is already making me look for the snooze button since I can't deal with Avalon on any level...then you have the infamous "first 1000 ladies are free" drama, followed by the plug-in from the local radio station...it's just too much. Give me a red carpet, a stand and repeat, and I am good...I also like an open bar, such as the one provided at the Nas album release party (yeah, I am still talking about that one.) Anytime PATRON is a part of open bar, it's a serious event.

But I digress...

Today the ladies will take over Dr. Jay’s in Brooklyn for the NY launch of Pastry Footwear. You can check out their MySpace page here. I just got off the phone with a friend who happens to work at the “swanky hotspot” where the ladies will be having their private affair after the promo day at Dr. Jay’s. Since we know that Russell will be off with the heads of anyone who tries to test him, I can only tell you that there have been over 800 RSVPs, and the guest list is capped at 125…fun!

So, that means I won’t be there, but here is my open letter to the Simmons’ girls:

Hey Angela and Vanessa,

Congrats on the Pastry Collection! It’s nice to see two sisters come together for the greater good of footwear. As I was walking home yesterday in these boots that made my feet feel as if I were walking on coals, I wondered about where I’d be able to pick up those sneaks…

I hope you have fun at your party tonight, I wish I’d been invited, but I am not one of the cool kids in your cipher yet…until then…cheers! My boy Rodney LoveJones makes great Red Velvet cupcakes if you are ever looking for some epicure delights!

Best,
Priceless CandyGirl



Moving on...

My daily habit is to pick up the New York Daily News and catch up on what's going on here in the big city...it allows me to focus less on my retarded daily commute. Here were a few highlights from today's paper:


Granny Takes a Toke at Freedom: Did you hear about this? I mean does the NYPD have nothing better to do? Frankly, she’s a pretty fly granny…I am not mad at her shades!

I’m under the general conclusion that Jim Farber is paid to write these reviews. I mean, he never has anything bad to say…and even when he does, he goes back to fluff. I also find the title to be extremely..."queen"-ish. I will leave that one right there.

Eve is back on the town…with a driver…and Tracy Morgan…dayum.

Missing the Old Monica Arnold...

So, Monica apparently fired back at people talking bad about her baby on Mediatakeout.com.

Introducing my Jacked Pic of the Day!





Now I am trying to figure out why she was at the Scrip (I meant to spell it that way) Club, and…OK, let me stop acting like I’ve never been to one. I didn't draw that circle either...some folks think she and Rodney Hill are no longer, but it doesn't appear that way since they were there together...


I went to Russell Simmons’ book launch last week at Stereo…hmmm…well, then I came across this clip from the infamous mediatakeout.com. Seems Russell has a problem with his patience or hearing, you know from all the music that has blasted in his ear for the past 20 years…or something like that. Power is a hell of a drug.

I’m done…until tomorrow!

~NP/PG ;)

Good Stuff for a Rainy Monday!

Hey candies!

I had to take a break and really take a look at some of these other bloggers and what exactly they are trying to do. I've not only learned that blogging is not an easy task, but it also comes with great responsibility...therefore, I am trying to figure out the laws of the land, and where I can exactly fit in this picture...

OK, so now that I am done with my Oprah moment...


1. What is the mess that is Swizz Beats? Whoa, who is his publicist? Hmmm...I don't think this is a very cool look for you my dude:

(courtesy of Crunk & Disorderly, per my jacking skills)

2. I Love New York Reunion: Sorry folks, I haven't caught it all yet but I do hear that old girl got dumped by Mr. TMNT himself (that reference suits him wonderfully...):


(courtesy of the Flavor of Love Blog)

After viewing how nasty New York was when talking 'bout his momma he told her he couldn't marry her, so I hear...uh...come on now were you thinking you were going to marry her though dude? Wow...the crack epidemic lives rampant in Tampa, huh?

3.Lil' Romeo Goes To School: Well, Master P gets a pat on the back from me. Seems like his son just signed up to play Basketball over at USC this fall...let us pray he gets Mr. Romeo a box of condoms, or that he at least puts the patent on some type of contraption that can attach itself and never come off for at least 4 years...or something like that.



And yes, I am well aware that Mediatakeout.com is not the best authority on these things, but there be some truth on there...sometimes...well...I think it's just fun to figure out what's true and what isn't, but that's too much of an endorsement until we become friends.

4. Gary Dourdan's (The Black Guy on CSI) Publicist is Fired: TMZ.com has your boy on tape being denied entry into new "white Hollywood hot spot" (yes, that is what it was referred to as on tmz.com) Parc (put this link in a new broswer):

http://link.brightcove.com/services/link/bcpid285859616/bclid294430730/bctid769369294

Oh, you don't know who he is? Shame on you! Apparently, neither did the door people...but I've dealt with this at a few nightclubs in NYC...they aren't always happy to see the brown faced people...those A-D lists do exist, and most brown folks are pretty much D on those lists...sorry to break it to ya...unless you have $3k-$5k/month to give to some publicist who has the inside track, is in bed with the owners (literally) or is just...enough to do the job...you fill in the blank.

5. Russell Simmons says "Do You!": Most bloggers seem to be fixated on Russell's next Kimora, but it seems he's coming out with a book, due on shelves April 24:


(from Penguin Group (USA)'s website)


From Penguin Group (USA)'s website: "The business and cultural icon finally shares his experiences in and beliefs on success in Do You! 12 Laws to Access the Power in You to Achieve Happiness and Success. Simmons has been instrumental in bringing hip-hop to every facet of business and media since it’s inception in the late 1970’s, as well as being heavily involved with several philanthropic organizations including Hip-Hop Summit Action Network, the Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation, and the Diamond Empowerment fund. But no matter what the venture, Russell is always driven by the belief that hip-hop and the arts are enormously influential agents for social change."

Cool...I liked his Life After Def book, so I'll be looking out for that...wonder why I haven't heard too much about it though...

6. These Execs Need Assistants that Know What Spellcheck Is and It Wonders: OK, so on Sandra Rose's temporary site, she posted a letter from Jermaine Dupri, stating his response to this whole Imus mess, and it goes like so:

THANK U FOR RESPONDING TO MY BLOG SOME OF YOU SEE IT MY WAY OTHERS DONT FOR ALL OF YOU THAT ARE ?ING RAP VIDEOS AND OUR MUSIC THIS IS WHAT I SAY

WE MAKE CLEAN VERSION OF OUR MUSIC SO THAT WE CAN GET ON THE RADIO WE PLAY BY THE RULES WHAT THAT MAN DID WAS JUS TRY TO GET AWAY WITH SOMTHIN AND SAY FUCK THE RULES THIS IS MY SHOW I CAN DO WHAT I WANT

AND NOW HES TRYIN TO PULL RAP MUSIC DOWN WITH HIM AND YALL ALL KNOW THATS BULLSHIT

NO DRAMA IS ONE THAT THINKS WHAT WE ARE DOIN IS BAD AND I SAY TO YOU WHAT DO THINK THE WHOLE WORLD IS SPOSE TO BE ALIKE ?
I MEAN WHAT THIS PERSON DECIDES TO DO IS NOT WHAT YOUR GONNA DO AND YOU OR I CAN CONTROL THAT

IF A GIRL WANTS TO DO PORN OR BE IN PLAYBOY ITS HER DECISSION ONCE OUR KIDS GET OF AGE ITS THERE CHOICE TO DO WHAT THEY WANNA DO

PORN IS A BILLION DOLLAR BUISNESS THAT NOBODY ATTACKS CAUSE YALL THAT KEEP TALKIN ABOUT US RAPPERS STILL GO BEHIND DOORS AND BUY THESE MOVIES USE DILDOS AND ALL THAT
BUT USE US AS A SCAPE GOAT

THIS HAS NOTHIN TO DO WITH RAP MUSIC THIS HAS TO DO WITH SOMBODY BREAKIN THE RULES FLAT OUT!!!!!!!

-End of Madness-

Although it's clear that grammar and spell check do not exist on Blackberry's he does have a point...this could very well a way to attack rap music, but seriously...are clean edits enough? And I don't understand, does JD have a blog or something? If so, does it have spell check?

Half of these songs don't even have words once edited so um...what are you trying to say here JD? Your publicist is also fired.

And Snoop Dogg's response?: "It's a completely different scenario... "[Rappers] are not talking about no collegiate basketball girls who have made it to the next level in education and sports. We're talking about ho's that's in the 'hood that ain't doing sh--, that's trying to get a n---a for his money. These are two separate things. First of all, we ain't no old-ass white men that sit up on MSNBC [the cable network home to Imus] going hard on black girls. We are rappers that have these songs coming from our minds and our souls that are relevant to what we feel. I will not let them mutha-----as say we in the same league as him." (courtesy of Sandra Rose via MTV News).

Well jee, thanks Snoop! Your publicist is also fired.

Thanks for reading, more to come...stay tuned!

Beyonce & SI...Big Daddy Kane & Bombay...and some other stuff...

Jacked Pic of the Day: Beyonce is a MODEL! Well, kinda sorta...

Hi Candies!

Happy Valentine's Day! Personally, I don't have anyone special to share today with but I hope you do! It's pretty ridiculous outside, but hopefully Ms. B is warming you up with her hot, sexy ass! According to my records, Beyonce is the first "non-model" to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated's most coveted and bought issues...and she's even rocking House of Dereon bathing suits (this one in the pic is a HOD suit)...now that's star power!

Check out all the pics here...she is rocking other designers as well, but I know how that meeting went over at Sports Illustrated:

Mama Knowles: Yes, so it is imperative that MY CHILE wears these suits.

Sports Illustrated: Ah, yes however we have some great desi-

MK: Maybe I didn't make myself clear. My daughter will wear HOD suits, or we aren't doing the cover...and we were promised this cover months ago, not to mention the check we wrote you to insure this would happen...

SI: Right. OK. F*CK IT. We are trying to sell this issue, and these men could care less what she's wearing anyway, so HOD it is!

***********************************

Moving on, I attended the Bombay Sapphire Loft Event on Tuesday Night (they are doing events all week) where DJ Premier was honored...

When I walked in, the people at the desk were very nice. I'd RSVPed for myself and my client Dres of Black Sheep, but he'd just got into town from London, so I didn't want to fully punish him and make him come (I am good for that. I make sure you are on your job as the artist.) I took the elevator upstairs and wondered why there was a rhino in the lobby...I realized when I went out for my smoke break later on that we were actually at the Ecko building (duh!).

I ran into a few familiar faces...DJ SYNAPSE let me know he's working with Frank 151 now, it's a cute little publication, and they have some pretty hip events around NYC. I also ran into ROB SAUTHOFF, who introduced me to one of his artists. Then here comes BIG CED of THE SOURCE bumping into me like he meant it! Naw he's just playful like that...told him I was looking for JULIE ALS, and he pointed me right in her direction. We got down to some biz chat along with BUM, general manager for THE SOURCE. I also kicked it with ANTHONY FLORES of IRT MAGAZINE and CHRIS GOINES...saw my favorite gay boy DEVON CHRISTOPHER of BLEU MAGAZINE. I also met SAM NELSON, account manager for NOISE MARKETING, and ran into J and ROB STONE of CORNERSTONE PROMOTION.




KELLY ROWLAND looked decent, but I thought her hair could have looked better...I don't know I don't have a weave but I mean, it was cold and windy as hell that night, so it looked like her hair was a victim of that. She looked good none the less...and why are they pushing her album back?






BIG DADDY KANE ripped it for the people...I said whattup to the god. He said hi and we talked about Dres briefly (thanks for introducing me Julie!) Mediatakeout.com puts him on their "10 Celebrity Men Who Hit The Wall" list, but I think they should have just taken 1-10 and given it all to Devante from Jodeci...one word: DAMN.






I don't know who this guy is so I will call him DJ STANK. Part of my job as a publicist is to make sure these DJs have the music...now I understand you are in the middle of a set, but I'm thinking within the 3 to 4 minutes you have in between songs if someone comes up and says hi, you can see what they are talking about...I know you were busy but you didn't have to slap the CD on the side like that...he was talking to JUJU from THE BEATNUTS who I was also trying to give a CD to, but they were acting like chicks were trying to holla...I'm there to work, so chill. Every girl who says hello isn't trying to holla...still love you tho.




ICE-T and COCO were there...







...and TALIB KWELI also performed.









I had a good time...can't ya tell!

Until the next post...

CandyKisses!
~NP ;)

Pics courtesy of alltheparties.com, and yes, I took them from there. I still don't know what the rules are about posting pics that aren't yours, so I hope this serves as a good reference? David Paul, holla at ya girl if you are mad @ me...I'm just trying to do this thing, you know? ;)

Ms. Hudson does Vogue...welcome to the first post!

JACKED PIC OF THE DAY: Jennifer Hudson and Vogue Magazine

GO J-Hud! Only a few moments ago, Simon said bounce biatch, you'll never be seen again... Don't you love to prove folks wrong?

Moving forward... HEY! We've missed you guys! Now finally figuring out a blog is the way to go, I introduce you to The Priceless CandyGirl View, where I give my opinion of what's out there that you all are watching, reading and talking about. From going to the parties, to actually working with these folks, I assure you my viewpoint shall remain as people call me: Brutally Honest. Let's get started shall we?

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOhhhh....Jada! Looks like you've gotten yourself into some serious trouble and stuff...according to The NY Daily News, he's facing 16 months to 7 years for driving dirty...well, with friends...read here.

Seemed like happier times for us when we were partying back at Quo (ok, so you only came thru the party once) but I love this pic I have of us, it's on my myspace page:

www.myspace.com/pricelesscandygirl

I remember this night vividly (that's my girl Melissa in the pic as well). We were promoting Sheek Louch's album, and they were not trying to let Jada in because he had about 9 dudes with him. Madina, the main promoter of the event, was running a little late, but made it in time before he broke out so he could get in. Yeah, these NYC clubs are on that sh*t, especially if you have on a baseball cap, baggy jeans, etc...they simply aren't having it, and they don't care who you are... Sheek ended up getting arrested that night while the party was going on, but we all still had a good time!

And I don't care what you think. I am really sad about Anna Nicole Smith's passing. Such a modern Shakespearean day tale...listen up Paris, Lindsay, Tara and all you party 'til you die biatches. You only get one shot here at this life stuff. Throwing it away and rotting your bodies out is not the solution to your everlasting problems...and really, what are your problems? Maybe you girls should see that Oprah episode about "The Secret." Scary, but this works kids. Check out more details about "The Secret" here.

For those of you begging to hear some true school, check out the contributions from some of the 80's and 90's greatest, now featured on the remix to Nas' "Where Are They Now" song:
