Apartment Search . . .

4 Words: Roaches On Their Backs . . .

Some of ya’ll wouldn’t believe the unsightly scenes I’ve encountered (and smelled) during my apartment search. The landlords and the people that dwell in their properties are sheisty, delusional, TRIFILING and off the damn chain. It is MIND BLOWING to see how some people and their children (poor babies) LIVE. I have the mind to call the health inspector on a few of ‘em. . .

3 Words: Pray for me . . .

Start your prayer circle right now. I need it.

2 More Words: Home Ownership . . .

It really is the best way to go. I think Saucy Dame Delux should start a financial segment for folks like myself who need some help making more $$ and managing our ‘bread’, properly. I need a home to call my own, forever and ever and ever . . . renting is for college students, the poor, and suckers.

1 Final Word: REALITY

Sharpton Delivers Passionate Eulogy for James Brown

Preach! Go tell it on the mountain! SAY IT LOUD!

Yo, Al Sharpton is on some real talk! And Michael Jacksons hair is laid, aint it?

Ford Automobiles Signs Kelis to help launch ‘Edge’ . . .

Okay, so this isn’t breaking news . . . but I thought I’d share with ya’ll that my girl Kelis is making diversified $$ moves. If her singing career doesn’t provide longevity perhaps a clothing line (yes, another celebrity clothing line), a cookbook ( I’se heard she can hook some shit up) and a commercial deal with FORD Automobiles, will guarantee the bossy wifey of Nas more time in the spotlight and generous amount of coins to add to her piggy bank.

So, does Kelis’s new relationship with FORD mean I am going to see wanna-be hipsters floatin’ around town in Burnt Orange FORD ‘Edges’? I guess I’ll find out soon. Personally, I’m really not impressed with this vehicle. *yawn* But, I’m all for Kelis gettin’ in where she fits in.

Ignorance for Sale

Rolling into the 007 VH1 is doing what it did best in 2006: Reality Raunch, Coonery & Buffoonery. . . You know, the type of hype modern day American television is made of. Hell, we pay to watch this shit, don’t we? I aint mad though. . .I watch it too (sometimes). But I do wonder how far they intend to go with their over-the-top antics. I also wonder what it must be like to sit in a room full of producers getting paid to develop and market this outrageous branding of T.V. I can only imagine the raw bias and delusional thoughts that part from the minds and lips of these overpaid “Herbs”. HIP-HOP influences have been a tremendous cash-cow for them. But does anyone remember a time when you were lucky to catch an hour of programming dedicated to ANYTHING hip hop related? I do . . .

With that being said, check for the following CLIPS of “Ego Trips (White) Rapper Show”.

I say, if anything it is further confirmation of the exploitation of Hip Hop and what some white Americans interpretation of the culture is. . .

As a matter of fact, did the fat chic in the clip below called homeboy the ‘N’ word (while thrusting a “dildo” in his face) ? Or are my eyes and ears decieving me?

Holiday Leftovers . . .

For those of you who enjoy the “Lifestyle” segments at Saucy Dame Delux - Here are a few images I captured over the holidays . . .

None of the following items belong to me (I’se poor, poor, poor). Everything you see, belongs to my mom and grandmother. I’m just waiting to hit the “BIG TIME” or have some of these trinkets bequeathed unto me. . . Until then, I’ll just enjoy their stuff. *ha ha*
