Posted by: Shannon on June 7, 2013| Leave a comment

So, I’m a little late jumping on the Janelle Monaé bandwagon, but I have to say I’m officially excited about her upcoming album, The Electric Lady. Ever since we saw that video for her single with Erykah Badu I’ve been on the lookout for more news about her sophomore effort, and today we’ve got some exciting stuff. Prince and Miguel will both feature on separate tracks on the album, which makes perfect sense considering Janelle‘s style, but is still a wonderful surprise. Click inside to learn more!

Kanye West has been very secretive about his upcoming album, and it’s been kind of fun finding out little tidbits of information here and there. Now this is some pretty dope news– remember when we first heard the single Black Skinhead back when Yeezy debuted it on Saturday Night Live? Well what we didn’t know was that Daft Punk (who’s unmasked faces were just recently revealed to the public) were actually behind the track. The electronic music duo was credited as composers of the song, and they had also spoken out a while back about working with Kanye. Click inside for more!

Here Are 10 Reasons Why Ginuwine Was The Sexiest Guy In R&B For A Really Long Time

Throwback Thursdays Celebrates 'The Bachelor'
Posted by: Shannon on June 6, 2013| 16 Comments

Guys, I know I’m late but I just got on the Pandora train and I am in luuuurve. Somehow I got lost in a vortex the other day and decided to hang out on the ‘Ginuwine‘ station. Sigh. Lemme tell you about Ginuwine for a second. Ya know how we recently revived our hot-person-of-the-week post? Well, if this was 1996, Ginuwine would be my hot-person-of-the-week… every week. I legitimately did not know what a sex symbol was until I walked into a record store when I was like 10 years old and saw the Ginuwine poster to end all Ginuwine posters. He was shirtless, sweaty, and I needed that poster in my life. Desperately. But something told me that if I asked my mom to get it for me… there was, like, a 75% chance she might just turn around and slap me. LMAO. And that, my friends, is how I discovered sex, sex symbols, and probably my own budding sexuality. In a record store, staring at a poster of Ginuwine. Please click inside so we can celebrate the amazingness that was this guy’s body/voice back in the day!
