when you reach a certain level of fame,
no matter who you are or what you do,
you need a team of pros to guide you.
if keith lee had a savvy publicist,
this BET awards mess would’ve been a breeze.
i’m glad taraji fired back at keith lee with her own bad review of him…

A controversial statement but Kamala Harris bugs me.

i’ve aired my grievances about her many times.
my main issue?
she doesn’t feel authentic.
you know when she feels authentic?
when she is in shady bitch mode.

this is when i think she is the most “herself” and i fux with that heavy.
i love when she is shady and bitchy tbh.
it’s like she’s always “putting on” for the black community.
come voting time,
she pulls out the pander card.
her appearance at the bet awards really annoyed me…

when of our peers gets exposed for not playing nice,
or just being a total scumbag,
it’s a bad look for anyone siding with them.
“guilty by association” is real and it seems katy perry clearly missed that memo.
ke$ha’s trauma with dr. luke was headline news back in 2014.
( x read about it here )
she even dropped a album and song (that i loved) about er healing process.

So “why come” Katy thought it was a good idea to team up with Dr. Luke for her comeback?

the wild part?…

: Kenya Moore making an exit from season 16 of RHOA.

after all that drama,
she allegedly ( x left on her own terms ).

or maybe she jumped ship before they could push her overboard.
rumors are flying that she messed up a good thing but let’s be real…

when i was a young millennial who was struggling with my sexuality,
i needed to hear “good luck, babe!” by chappell roan.

i heard it recently and it was like finding a lifeline.
she’s singing a Foxhole anthem of our young,
gay,
and dealing with the confused in love and lust.
the song tells the story of a lesbian who falls for another girl,
but that girl’s pretending to be straight.
“good luck, babe!” is chappell’s way of saying:

“You can’t suppress who you really are but I hope it all works out with the straights!
You’ll always fantasize about me but I hope things work out in your dead end relationship with home girl!”

with that gem of comfort and acceptance,
and because music is a solace for many of us during the good and bad,
i have to ask…

when “the boy is mine” dropped in 98,
with brandy and monica belting out their soulful rivalry,
it was more than just a song.
it was a cultural moment.
the ultimate for young millennials.
i still remember Mum surprising me with the maxi single.

unforgettable.

I’ll also never forget her apartment flooding just as Brandy was hosting MTV for the weekend,
promoting her new album and “I Still Know What You Did Last Summer.”

chaotic….
but what a year.
brandy and monica’s sophmore albums still hold a special place in my heart.

ariana grande is trying to capture that magic in her “yes, and?” era,
but nothing’s landing quite right.
even her duet with mariah failed to make waves but only a cute splash.
she tried re-doing “the boy is mine”,
but not like the OG,
but adding brandy and monica to the remix…
