Certified Banger !

If you haven't heard this song yet, your missing out. The song is called Jizzle and it's by Young Jeezy and Lil Jon. When I listen to this song, my mind automatically went to the club scene.  The beat just makes me want to dance and Lil Jon brought crunk to the next level. Listen to the track and tell me what you think.

Super Star Style

Nicki Minaj emerged on the hip hop scene with a sexy style and quirky hair. Her style power was so great she has tons of young ladies or as some people know them Barbies who attempt to dress like her. Many of these attempts look ridiculous. People try to hard and copy Nicki's exact style. There are ways to get Nicki Minaj's crazy style without turning into a cloned copy of the self proclaimed harjuku barbie.  Mix in corsets in your wardrobe, leather bottoms and funky jewelry.  Below are a few outfits that give you Nicki's look without being a barbie clone. Even though the items in the images below are pricey, places like Forever 21, H&M and Urban Outfitters sell items with the same style.

Style Star

Ludacris is clearly one of the most stylish men in the Hip Hop industry.  I never thought I would utter those words.  When the rapper first came on the scene in 2000 with his platinum selling CD Back for the First Time, his look was his own. Wild Afro's, graffiti shirts, pinky rings, huge chains and untamed facial hair were all apart of his swag.  In recent years however, Ludacris has transformed into a well kept grown man. He ditched the tall tee's and big chains for suits and ties. The most dramatic change was his hair. The out of this world afro was cut down to a classic fade and the side burns disappeared. Overall, I think this was the best move Ludacris could have made. The more polished look reads "Grown Man Artist" and the old look reads "Carpet Kid Rapper". What do you think ?

Product of the Week- SOME LIKE IT HOT

SOME LIKE IT HOT shampoo and conditioner are a pair of products from the TIGI company. Both products are "Heat & Humidity Resistant Sulfate-Free Shampoo/Conditioner to Smooth & Soothe". Either one is the perfect summer time hair product. As many of us know, hair likes to follow it's own set of rules in the summer due to the extra heat and humidity. SOME LIKE IT HOT conditioner and shampoo resists humidity and helps controls frizz. It also protects hair from dangerous UV rays which can leave your beautiful healthy hair dry and damaged.  If you believe your hair needs more protection from summer's heat , there is another product int the family. SOME LIKE IT HOT serum also does the same job protecting the hair as the shampoo and conditioner and is light enough to be used everyday. The serum also adds shine to dull looking hair. Overall, I rate this product 5 stars. This product can be found at your local Walmart, Target or Walgreens.   Also, here is the link to the website if you would like more information .

New Song of the Week

New song of the week is Maybach Music III by Rick Ross featuring T.I., Jadakiss & Erykah Badu. The "Teflon Don" set the bar high with this track.  This is a follow up to Rick Ross' previous Maybach Music I & II. The beat of this song captivates any listener with its classic sound. The song also features eccentric songstress Erykah Badu singing the hook, with her raspy style harmonizing over the remarkable beat. Overall the beat gives the song a unique identity and the artists featured on it all shine individually. Two thumbs up for this one Mr. Rozay !
