i heart kanye...shrug

i love this guy, think he's 1 of my fav artist these days: article made me smile

Jay-Z f. Rihanna & Kanye- Run This Town

not a huuuuge fan of rihanna, but do love kanye, so it balances out! song is ok, video is kinda ok. just expected more, not too original. has a warriors, california love feel to it.

fav part of the video (& song) remains mr west. enjoy:

Jay-Z - New Music - More Music Videos

2 new songs: poke her face & cookies n apple juice

so recently heard these 2 songs w/ ridiculous lyrics in the hook, but i like both of em... (don't judge me):

martin louis the king, jr

just read kanye's interview in complex (april/may). complex is such a great mag, just wish there was a female version of it (proper balance of fashion & music & humorous extras), but i'll deal with the men's fashion & gratuitous bikini clad women for now.

in the interview i learned after kanye's lv shoes walked the runway at paris' fashion week (jan 22) he's changed his name:

... after the interview they talked about the design process of nike's air yeezy's (shoes kanye designed w/ nike). smoe says they're ugly, but i like em (think the extra long tongue looks cool and gives the shoe a good shape- you can't tell bc of this person's legs but trust me, click on the above link & see).

love lockdown

i CAN NOT stop listening to kanye's love lockdown! is it just me or does that song rock?? maybe it's b/c i'm a beat-whore (i literally love any song w/ a good beat, lyrics could be garbage, but if the beats steady me likey)...

my monday was grrrrreat! started off late, no no not due to me but b/c of my bff wmata (see my 1st blog post). work was cool, monitored a lot of (dramatic) dialogue on our message board! plus finally got text for our newsletter off of my plate. speaking of plate, ate lunch w/ a friend from high school who's in town for state department stuff... made me realize i'm a bad friend b/c i keep in touch w/ like 4 people from high school! b/c i'm a bad friend i like to use the justification that when you have true friendship you don't have to speak everyday, week, month, even year :) but seriously i have friends i haven't spoken w/ in months but if i called them out of the blue (after a quick exchange of sarcastic grumbles) we'd chat like we just spoke last week! and that's what it's all about kids... knowing i'm bad at keeping in touch and not giving me crap when i actually do reach out per call/email/text/facebook/tweet, etc.

actually still at the office riiiiiiiiight now. guess i should get a jump start on my non-work life and leave soon... going home? i wish, def have a Kid Save meeting this evening at 7pm so won't be home until around 9ish...
