On this past Monday’s episode of Black Ink Crew – a show about a group of individuals who own and (many times horribly) operate a tattoo shop in Harlem – cast member O’Sh*t (this is literally his nickname), decides to get a vasectomy after thinking that he’d gotten a fourth woman pregnant after she showed…

Last Night, Empire Pushed Ridiculous To New Levels
***If you haven’t seen this episode yet but intend to, you probably should not read further. If this is you, why’d you even click the link, tho?*** If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a million times: I love Empire. Almost none of it makes any sense nor is it even remotely possible. That…

6 Thoughts I Had While Listening to Fetty Wap's Self-Titled Debut Album
I’m a hip-hop head and could sometimes be considered a backpacker on a few Tuesdays a month, but I’m far from being a purist. I don’t hate all of this new “rap” the way that people who swear by Black Moon on Facebook do. I listen to Rich Homie Quan and laugh at Young Thug with the…

Love & Hip Hop Hollywood Season 2: Episode 4 Recap
Finally, we hit pay dirt. This show has been boring the ever loving day lights out of me for three straight weeks mostly because its the most rehashed retread non-sense ever at this point.

The jokes only flew from there with people questioning why such a refined, educated, well-to-do woman would date such an opposites attract specimen…

How I Discovered And Fell In Love With Phyllis Hyman
I remember the first time I heard a Phyllis Hyman song. This was in March 2006 at my boy Tim’s condo. He’d turned his second bedroom into a makeshift studio and we did a lot of writing and producing in that room. At the time, he was the producer and I was just learning the…

Love & Hip Hop Hollywood Season 2: Episode 2 Recap
Our favorite dirty rotten scoundrels from Hollywood are back for another fun-filled episode of shenanigans and nincompoopery. Honestly, this episode was pretty boring by industry standards. Nary a drink was thrown though the drinks will definitely fly soon as we are treated to the wonderful world of Soulja Boy and Nia, who, if you’ll remember,…
