I’se on my way to buy the book this evening, in like 2 seconds. . . We shall re-visit this topic soon.
“Hell hath no fury like a baby mama scorned.
Nas’s ex is raking her acrylics over the rapper and his wife, Kelis, in a new tell-all book, “It’s No Secret.”
Carmen Bryan says he beat her, cheated on her, cut her child support, and then invited her for a threesome with the “Milkshake” singer, just before they married.
And you think your boyfriend has lousy foreplay.
Not that the self-described “Hip-hop Helen of Troy” stayed home watching Oprah when her man was away. She found time to entertain Jay-Z and Allen Iverson while dating Nas.
She claims he beat her “with a closed fist” after finding out about one fling. In turn, she “pulled out my pepper spray from my back pocket and sprayed Nas down like he was some rabid pit bull,” when he cheated.
Miz Bryan also claims Kelis doesn’t wear deodorant, Jay-Z scrubs his butt in the shower (doesn’t everyone?), and Nas once turned down a date with Beyonce because, he said, “to be honest, I can’t take her breath.” (source ) *But I initially spotted this gossip candy at the one and only C&D
The Artwork of Michael Birawer

For several years I have admired the paintings of Michael Birawer - a local artist who has managed to playfully capture the essence of urban life and the all special ‘nooks and crannies’ that make Twin Cities a groovy place to live. The thing is - I never knew Michaels name until today. I spied a few of his pieces in a gallery at the Mall Of America — but that was the extent of what I knew about the artist or his work. I’m tickled that I’ve come across his website. I invite you to check it out and enjoy yourself. This should be especially fun for “The Locals”.

And just for a lil’ extra, below is a photo that I took of the same classic shoe store that has been jazzed up in the painting above . . .

So, Shareefa’s tour bus was in town the night before her show with Lyfe Jennings. While out on one of our cocktail/culinary/shopping excursions, N.Pacini & I peeped the tour bus out by the Minneapolis Airport/Mall of America. Being the inquisitive individuals we are – we stopped to ask the bus driver, if anyone was on the bus. The whole set-up was kind of strange because of the location of the bus [I guess you had to be there to get the gist]. We just happened to stumble upon it while looking for a place to park the car. It was a very nice tour bus – very nice. *thumbs up* I would have loved to take a peek inside. We snapped a few photos of the entire bus, but it was extremely dark and the photos didn’t turn out to swell (sowwy).
“Petey Wheatstraw”, the driver — an older Caucasian chap with a lot of gray whiskers, yellow “smokers” teeth and a floppy hat on his head, went on to explain that Shareefa was not yet in the Twin Cities and that she wouldn’t arrive until the following day — when she did touch down in the 612 it would be by airplane. He followed up with this information with “I don’t know exactly when she’ll be here. They don’t tell me shit.”
Hmmm . . . so now budding, up & coming celebrities are flying into cities and meeting up with their tour buses? I thought that was reserved for DIVA status? But I aint got no tour bus, so what do I know?

I keep looking in the mirror . . . and wondering how much rounder my face is going to get before I do something about it. All of the good eatin’, top shelf cocktails & a few of the deadly sins (gluttony and slothfulness) are catching up with me. . .and it doesn’t help that the current climate in Minnesota has me wanting to hibernate until I turn into a big fat bear that no one will recognize. And I’m not even going to talk about all of the calories I sucked down over Thanksgiving [w/ Christmas right around the corner]. I should be in a soul food comatose right about now. But, no matter what – I refuse to resort to the Lap Band. Now that right there is just sooo unnecessary for the majority of the shiftless, over-indulged citizens of the U.S.A. ; who really just need to moderate their food intake and move SOMETHING on the treadmill. Wouldn’t you agree? I know exactly what to do – I just need to get my mind right, tis all.
I NEED AN INTERVENTION !

Dear World,
I case you aint knowin’ — I am a crazy.sexy.cool, chic from the 612 — Minneapolis to be exact [“North Side Rider” to be even more exact]. So, you already know I’ve gotta rep the everlasting classic “Minneapolis Sound”, brought to you by none other than your “Royal Badness”, Prince (but of course), Morris Day and The Time (the coolest mf’rs on the planet), Vanity 6, Appollonia, Sheila E, Mint Condition, Alexander O’Neal, Cherrelle and The Jets (Remember them? Yes, they are from Minnesota).
Now, before you get your keyboarding fingers all set to tell me what I should’ve added to the playlist . . . PLEASE keep in mind that the particular songs selected are some of my personal favorites – songs that hold sentimental value and spark many pre-teen and teeny-bopper memories. Aight?
