Simply Chique -wear with a clutch or satchel bag!

If you aint twitting, then YOU AINT WITH IT!!!!

guess what ppl? if you are not on twitter then you are not up on it. twitter is the latest BIG thing since facebook and myspace. it almost like an instant messenger type of facebook web service, where you answer your followers only Q: 'What are you doing?' it's great and i think you shld try it right about now: http://twitter.com/

Who is Electrik Red?

i guess more ppl are becoming aware of the group, electrik red, who are musically linked to the dream. the group is comprised of Naomi, Sarah, Lesley and Binkie, hailing from nyc and canada. before forming the group, they have individually worked with artists like usher, janet and mariah carey, and collectively were in ciara's video 'like a boy'.

[L to R : sarah, binkie, lesley, naomi]

sound: well, to me, they seem like another pussycat dolls type of group. as in there's the lead singer [seems to be naomi], and the group. i would describe their sound as a singing kelis and some back up vocals.

currents hits/singles: 'so good' [which i downloaded recently], 'drink in my cup', 'friend lover' [which i might download also]

lmao. we went to burger king last week to get some food for our friends, after an evening traveling in chambersburg, pa. when we put our order in and got our food, we were still sitting in the car at the drive thru window. biana opened her apple pie, which was undercooked, and soggy on the top. briana: ungh ungh, ungh ungh i'ont like this. c'i have my dolla back. rest of us: lol. briana: ungh ungh, ungh ungh this pie aint cooked. mel xcuse me sir, could we have our money back for this pie it's not cooked. i look in my bag of chix fries, and find a whopper in it. I'ONT EAT BURGERS! me: hey, hey. i didnt order no burger, and he charged for it, c'i my money back. briana the whole time: ungh ungh, c'i get my dolla back. "scott" the guy at the window [ yeah we know his name bcuz von said that he was there the last time they went to burger king] mel: sir could we have our money back for this pie bcuz its not appetizing and i believe it's not cooked. "scott" : well, the perspiration of the pie causes the cardboard to sweat so the pie is going to get wet, but its cooked.... briana: ungh ungh, c'i get my dolla back, i dont want it no more. "scott" : i'm sorry i can't do that. mel: can i speak to a manager. "scott": okay one moment please. so we sitting in the car waiting. here comes the manager. manager: how can i help you ladies. mel: um, she just wants her money back for this pie. it doesnt look appetizing, and she doesnt want it. me: hey, hey dont forget that burger, lemme get me money too. mel: o and she never ordered a burger, so can she have her money back too. manager: well, okay..... heres $2.12, $1.06 each, andyou ladies have a nice evening. [mind you it's like 11 pm] mel speeds off [ ghost ni**az]

Yo did you hear the one about chris brown & rihanna?

crazy!!!! you know i started hearing about the incident on sunday before the grammys. at first the story was that there was like a warrant for his arrest in l.a. then it was: he assaulted a female, whom he was arguing with in his car. [whole time, i'm like ain't nobody but rihanna] and the woman identified him as her attacker. meanwhile, rihanna was in a hospital for a "car accident" that wasn't fatal. then we find out that they aren't performing or attending the grammys. then it came out that rihanna as the victim in the cb assault incident. "she had multiples wounds to her temple...." [LOL, as sad as the story is, multiple wounds to the temple is hilarious] well, rumor is that they were fighting because rih rih gave chris herpes! hmmmm.....ewhhhhh. well, chris had a $50,000 bail, which it has been said he paid, and will have a court day sometime in the spring. well, i wonder what the truth behind the situation is, don't you? regardless, he should have never but his hands on her. i feel sorry for both of them.

Jam session!

here's a new joint, from rick ross "the boss" featuring john legend. it's called magnificent. i will admit, it's hawt! i'm not a crazy fan of rickky ross, even though i was feeling here i am, but this is good. i like the tone/mood/feel of it. it's not heavy rap, it's kinda lite, idk how to explain it.

Listen to Magnificent on Concreteloop
