On the verge of a Mental Breakdown

Anything to keep his name out there sad.

BET Awards 2010

Now I don't watch BET it is RARE for me to watch but I do tune into the BET awards for laughs. Now this BET awards was much better than last year (but that's not saying much) I wanted to post some of my favorite performances but they are not on youtube so I'll just write them.And i'm not going into details BET makes me waste Brain Cells so I can't remember anyway.



Kanye West - I thought he did good even though I felt he could have did more but I was just happy to see my kanye so I didn't care. I am looking forward to his album and him performing on a mountain was very kanye so I was pleased I really don't have much to say about this one.



T.I.- He's one of the few rappers that I can sit through(performance wise) , he brings energy and is a fine man so no complaining here.He was working overtime yesterday ... doing a skit with Queen Latifah and performing with dirty money. I guess he was making up for lost time.



El Debrage - I was *dead* how most of my twitter followers did not know who that man was. How can you be a music lover and not know about DEBARGE , I don't care if he was way before your time he was way before my time too and I know who that is. Youngins please educate yourself on music .. GOOD music at that. Alot of debarge records are sample into alot of hip hop classics so do your homework.



Eminem - Eminem like T.I. is another rapper that put on good performances , I love that a white boy is spitting better than most of the black rappers out. He came out on B.o.B set to the song airplanes , Keyshia Cole messed up airplanes for me who thought her voice sound good on that. Terrible. But em made up for it.



Dirty Money- A favorite of mines? I am shocked myself so say what you want about diddy (I get on him too) but performance wise he is entertaining. His dancing amuses me so much because he be so into it LOL. But as always Diddy makes it about himself having Dawn and that other chick be his background dancers . When will people learn ..diddy is career Suicide.

And The Main Atrraction YES- this even deserves it's own picture CHRIS BROWN.


This was the highlight for me .. So THANK YOU Chris Brown for entertaining me Yesterday (But not the way you think).

Now all in all I am a nice person (really I am) and i'm all about forgiveness but ..... Let's just say that Chris I enjoyed your performance last night and you really are a talented guy I will never deny that .. a reason I became a fan of you in the first place . You can dance your butt off and did a good tribute. But let's get to the crying LOL. CRY CRY and how Convenient you cry on man in the mirror. Your PR team has finally did something right. Now do I feel bad for chris for all his troubles No I don't. Does he deserve a second chance - You know that's not up to me to say . Personally that wasn't a comeback last night that was a flame a start of something because it doesn't matter if Black America forgives Chris it's up to WHITE AMERICA to forgive Chris. BET don't mean NOTHING. When I see chris slowly come back on MTV AWARDS , FUSE , AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS , GRAMMY AWARDS that's when Chris has made a COMEBACK. Is chris welcomed back in my circle? It's too late that spot has been filled by Lady Gaga so I can't let him back in if I really wanted to. At the end of the day if chris puts out a good song I will say that's a good song but he will never get any of my money again. It's the same how I am with alicia keys now I stopped buying her albums too. So chris hopefully you got the message but I won't be helping spread that message . Wish you the best.

Not Top 5? No my top 4 concerts

Here's a list of my favorite concerts I don't go into full detail the things that happen but just some detail. NOTE :The way the concerts are rank does not reflect the ranking of talent keep in mind.

1. 

New Kids on the Block w/ Lady Gaga & Natasha bedingfield 2008

This is my number one concert for sentimental reasons; New Kids were the first artist/group I ever liked so I was more excited about this one. Lady Gaga open up the show and at this time she wasn’t a big star yet I was sitting there watching her and like 0_0 I can’t explain it LOL she was different but I was intrigue. This was during her just dance days and I figure she would be a one hit wonder but as we know that was not meant to be. Natasha was good she has a nice voice and performed well live. Then the main attraction New Kids on the block, the child in me was dying lol. They are a big part of my childhood and I love going back to my childhood when I can LOL. They are good live as well... they are so much Fun they get the audience into the show. I left the show pleased.


Closing thoughts – I was happy that I got the chance to see the group that started my whole music obsession but who would have thought two years later the only one I care about now is Lady Gaga. Go figure



2.

Maxwell w/ Jill Scott 2010

This was the concert I went to yesterday and it was so GOOD. This should really be my number one. The comedian guy torry open up the show and well was funny in the beginning but got vulgar in the end. It’s one thing to do dirty comedy but dirty comedy can also become tasteless. And the sexually jokes went tasteless in the end. Hey the audience laughed but I didn’t. So next Jill Scott was up she was really good. She has a very powerful voice I wasn’t feeling her at the moment because of some interracial comments she had made in an interview but I still like her though. Then Maxwell who I must say is a beautiful man. The women were going crazy and I was laughing my butt off at them. He is good live as well and someone was saying he messed up a lyric who cares he fine he can mess up the lyrics all he want. Women throwing their panties on stage and he playing with the panties yeah it was that type of concert. It was a good show definitely a fave of mines.


Closing Thoughts – I love when I can go to a concert and the people can SING and LIVE at that. Would I see Maxwell again a part of me would but the women (and men) are too much LOL so if he puts out a DVD I would buy it for sure.

3.

T.I. w/ Ciara , T-pain , Lloyd , Yung Joc & Special Guests Jay-Z , Kanye West , 50 Cent , Diddy & Swizz Beatz (Scream Fest aka Scream Tour) 2007

Okay this was my favorite concert for a long time and it will still stay as a fave of mines. I wanted to see T.I. so bad (at that time) so I had got my wish. I wasn’t sure at first as far as would he be good as a performer. Rappers in my opinion are not good in that department I mean they just hold the mic and walk around the stage wow what a good show *sarcasm* but T.I. brings energy and he pulled it off. Ciara is or should I say was a good performer. I’m glad I saw her when she was relevant I used to love Ciara too. Oh Well. Lloyd I liked at that time as well he wasn’t bad to be honest. He basically did the sing and dance thing. Yung Joc I could have did with out. He tried to be sexy which is a no no for him. What happen to Yung Joc anyway? T-pain at this time was popular he actually sung on songs without the auto tune and didn’t sound bad. Maybe he should have done more of that. There were special guest there Funk Master Flex I believe was there and Terrence J and Rocsi showed up too. During T.I. set he brought out Jay-Z, Kanye West, 50 Cent, Diddy &Swizz Beatz(This was a big deal too all the blogs were talking about this concert)This is the Mtv article on it. 50 Cent had came out earlier during Ciara set which was the beginning of the end for ciara when she got involve with 50 that was pretty much it career wise. It was funny to see Kanye and 50 on the same stage because at this time they had that little feud the who will sell more albums mess (Kanye won) But it end up being a publicity stunt but some took it seriously. I think the only one missing from that concert was lil Wayne; most of the top stars were there.


Closing Thoughts – It was a Hip Hop head dream and a huge upgrade from the previous scream tours. It actually was the last scream tour and would I see T.I. again? Yes I would guns and all.
4.    

UCP(Up close and Personal tour)Chris Brown w/ Bow Wow , Omarion , Soulja Boy, Sean Kingston & shop boyz 2007

Now this was of course before the Chris and Rihanna situation and most of these people on this tour are no where near as popular as they once was but it was still a fun concert. Chris is a good performer and that is one thing I would never sugar coat. He really is but I actually wanted to see soulja boy too for some reason. Crank Dat was a huge hit and just like most at that time I was cranking it. I even have his first album but I’m not a fan anymore though. Bow Wow who I will always like (don’t ask) I liked him since I was 13 and it’s just certain artist no matter how wack they get or people feel they have gotten I just will still be fond of. Omarion his man (is he still his man?) was there and this was my third time seeing Omarion he just always popped up at the concerts I went to. I like him as a performer to be honest but like soulja boy not really into him now, Shop Boyz yeah those party like a rockstar people what happen to them? Sean Kingston not even going to lie I liked his first album and now he hanging out with Justin bieber so I guess his career is still intact.

Closing Thoughts – Don’t really have any. It was a fun show Chris is a good performer would I see him again? No I don’t support abuse sadly.

My other concerts were B2K(2003) which were a very popular group and messed up what happen to them in the end. The others at this concert was Marques Houston, Mario and nick cannon. Then the holladay jam(2005) with Bow Wow , Chris brown , Omarion , Marques Houston , Ciara and Trey Songz……..Let’s stop at Trey Songz because I missed him twice. On this tour and a show that was suppose to be at the Apollo Theater with him and Mario which was cancelled. I guess it wasn’t meant to be for me to see Trey Songz but I have no interest in seeing READY Trey Songz anyway.


I seen alot of other artists but they were mostly special guests at the concerts I went to I can't think of all of them at the moment.

In the future I would like to see Lady Gaga(again) Kanye West (again in a full show) Ne-Yo , Jonas Brothers ... I really did want to see them but they still on that disney mess and I just don't know now, Adam Lambert , Usher and Justin Timberlake who I must see before I die. I need to see Justin smh.

Trey Songz -Ready , but are you really?

For a while I wonder to myself when was Trey Songz going to blowup. Trey came on the scene the same time as Chris Brown &; Ne-Yo, Chris (at the time) and Ne-Yo were able to have great crossover success but trey was just an R&B dude with braids. He was nothing special as far as his image but voice wise I felt he was decent and had decent songs. His songs at the time weren’t poppy, weren’t ringtoneish just good R&B for the new school at least. But I guess Trey got tired of being in the background, even Lloyd and Bobby Valentino (remember him) were doing better than trey. But even though he wasn’t as known as the others I thought his songs were better than there’s at least Chris ,. Chris had the whole package but musically he couldn’t touch Ne-Yo and Trey. Trey day was another decent album from trey but some songs on there did hint that he was changing his sound, even with trey day he still was a nobody. Then trey cut off his braids, gain muscles and is ready. Oh really trey, well the cover of ready is basically a rip-off of D’angelo voodoo album and didn’t Marques Houston already do a D’angelo impression with naked??? I invented sex; trey is really playing that R.kelly role isn’t he?

Vibe Magazine- Trey says “People say well I hear a lot of R.kelly in your music, so what / R.kelly took Aaron Hall whole style” That is true trey but must you do the same? I was rooting for you to get mainstream success without copying others. I know that artists are influence everyone copies but trey really the LOL (: was the turning point for me. I couldn’t believe trey would put out a record like that.

I guess Ne-Yo said it best –“I like that he’s not doing the whole R&B thug thing anymore. There is no such thing; I’ve thought for a long time that he has one of the more distinct voices in R&B. It’s one of those voices that you hear and you automatically know who it is. I feel like some of his earlier songs complimented his voice a little better. But no one was really paying attention so he had to, dare I say, dumb it down.

The key sentence in bold, exactly what I did not want him to do and he did was DUMB IT DOWN. And he really dumbs it down on ready. He sounds like everyone else and that’s the problem. What happen to that boy that just gotta make it? He made it but he wasn’t true to his original self and I know at times the label does market you a certain way but trey what you doing is not different. You are taking your shirt off and singing about sex I feel like I seen this before.

But hey maybe this is you after all and if this is, it sure is nothing special. You could have been a young Maxwell or Donell Jones but no just a replacement until Usher get’s his groove back and Chris well tries to come back. I’m just waiting for you to dance now. Two times I was suppose to see trey perform, missed him the first time and he cancelled the second. It’s fine though that was in his braids days I have no interest now.


And please at the end of the day Trey’s best album is the first his most successful is ready. And I see trey releasing all these video’s like ready is producing mad hits. The only hits are I invented sex and say ahh. Songs like gotta make it , cheat on you , gotta go , ur behind , just wanna cut , wonder woman , can’t help but wait , we should be , missing you , Last time I’ll pick over say ahh , I invented sex and LOL (: any day. I’m all about artists evolving but don’t do a 360 on people Trey always sung about sex just his whole style now I feel it’s nothing new just a clone of something else at least his old image had promise not the thug image but just the type of records he was singing .

I never was a mega fan of trey, never listened to his mix tapes but I do have all three albums’ I always felt he was underrated in the past but now that trey has blown up he’s pretty overrated sadly. I have mixed feelings on the new Trey but congratulations’ Trey for becoming like everybody else.

Who is the Next Michael Jackson??? (Everyone's favorite tired subject)

So here we go again, people trying to find some other artist to crown the new Michael Jackson. Usher, Justin Timberlake and Chris brown all were in line to be the new Michael Jackson, now we have Quest love crowning Beyonce as the new Michael and now Rodney Jerkins crowning Lady Gaga as the new Michael. Will it ever stop!!! I see everything is back to normal now as far as the whole we love Michael fad (2009) All these artists that I mention I am huge fans of (well not Chris brown anymore , that’s another subject for another day) and I feel these artists are very talented but no where near Michael status. Why must we keep putting crowns on people, saying that they are the new this or the new that. Can’t they just be themselves and most said they are copying its called being influence people everybody feed off each other. It’s bad enough that the music industry can’t produce real talent anymore and when we do get an artist from this generation that is trying to make decent music we downgrade their talent by comparing them to a legend like Michael. It goes to show how much Michael was truly appreciated always trying to put his title on others. I’m not offended by it at all; I just feel it’s unfair to the artists from this generation. A lot of them are not even trying to become the new anything; it’s the media and fans that raise the bar higher for them.

Sadly we will never see talent like Michael again so we have to fool ourselves into thinking Beyonce is taking his place. I have a Love/Hate with this girl I tell you. I’m a fan of her but then someone hypes her up like she’s the second coming I hate her again. I’m personally over “who is the next MJ” craze. Music has gone downhill and will continue to. No matter what artists will always be compared deal with what’s out now, play an old Michael album and call it a day.

OH GOODNESS I GOT THE FEVER!!!!!!!!!!

Now i'm sure you all heard of a group called jonas brothers(who hasn't)Well I got the jonas fever and it's not so much their music because i'm not a huge fan of their music (I have a thing for boybands though )I caught the joe fever ..goodness and I got it bad ...Chris Brown was the only 19 year old boy I look at until now ..the oldest brother kevin is my age so I don't feel too bad LOL and Nick is for the little kids so whatever LOL.

Just mad because you brought all those word up mags , t-shirts and cd's thinking that was going to get you closer to him ...Yeah he loves his fans ... he loves our money too .I have express my feelings in the past about it but I thought I express it on my blog but this is my last time talking about it.
