Rehab

"Boy, boy, boy", Rihanna is a phenomenal artist. The topic this week is Rehab a newer song from the Barbadian songstress.I would say either she was going through real emotional traumas or is a really good writer, because this song is deeper than the ocean... When she says that she needs to go to rehab, and that you are her disease... I wonder if a "happy" person can really write something like that or if she is revisiting her past?

stanky leg Vs. Ricky Bobby

As we all know there has been a dance craze. Fortunately for us the skanky leg came along. The funny thing is the dance is similar to the name. You literally look as if you stepped in something bad and are trying to get it off of your shoe. The Ricky Bobby on the other hand is a a simple combination of steps that to me is better, considering it causes no harm to my ankles. Besides it's more to do, to occupy my time with something more than my legs. It's a miniature workout. I mean seriously people would you rather do a dance named after poo, or a person...? Think about it.

“Wow”, the first time I heard this song I loved it. For awhile it was just me there listening to the beat, and then as I began to listen to the words I realized how much it applied to teenage girls everywhere. This song seemed to be an anthem for the girl with low self esteem, the girl who had just lost her boyfriend, the girl who couldn’t be like anyone else if she wanted to, and the little rocker chick in all of us. Certain things I must say bothered me, but rounding the chorus:
“ I've had a lot of failed relationships
I don't get involved because I'm not equipped
I believe that the world should revolve around me
I don't see the point in a partnership
It won't be long until they start to trip
Yessiree, the whole world should revolve around me!”
This particular song as egotistical as it sounds is empowering, oozes independence, dynamic . . . makes me feel like I can conquer the world single handedly. Obviously this sassy songstress with her modern day afro, unique style, and complete disregard of what other people think of her, has taken a class in individuality. My take on this: "She should keep rocking out"

My Life

Lil Wayne, a very well known artist has been featured in many songs, one being My Life. The Game a former member of G-unit has also been pretty well known with such pieces as Dreams, and, This is How we do featuring 50 cent. No offense to Lil Wayne but, sometimes it seems as if he is “talking out the side of his neck” when he rhymes. I have no clue what he is talking about; I just know that he’s really nice eye candy. In this particular piece that he is featured in he proves that he can be, eloquent, and thoughtful while still keeping his swagger. Though Wayne plays a key role in this song you have to give props to the true voice The game. Showing that you can “flow”, bring sensitivity, and truth, all at the same time while making a hit, it would seem would be pretty difficult; yet he manages to pull it off. With his rough edge, but sleek demeanor it’s no wonder why all of the ladies swoon over him.
