The Top Hits In Music

OK, OK, Its been a while since singer/rapper Corey Hodges has came out with something new. Born in Atlanta,Georgia, he made a name for himself, which is Lil' Corey. The last time we've heard from him was when he made the hit titled "Hush Lil' Lady" was featuring Lil' Romeo and his other "first time.Both songs created around the time when he was 13. But now he's back with a more mature type of of swagg, as you will hear in his latest song titled "Say Yes". He 's currently signed with Jive records and is 20 years old now. He's still singing but he's not as exposed as he was years ago. So keep an eye out on him. He might be a big name again!


Maaaaaaannnnnnnn, The GS Boyz has a made a big hit with their new song and dance titled "Stanky Legg". The song/dance is part of the D-Town boogie, which is taking place down in Dallas, Texas. The masterminds behind this dance is GS's own Southside and his partner Prince Charming. Southside explained how it went down."He started doing his leg, like that," Southside said, explaining the motion where his partner Prince started rotating his leg in front of him, the way you would twist your foot to put out cigarette, except using the whole leg. "I was like, 'Hey, that looks stanky.'" And thus Stanky Legg was born. The Stanky Legg isn't the only thing that is taking part of the D-Town boogie. Lil' Will's "My Dougie" and B Hamps " Do the Ricky Bobby"is also apart of the movement. The D-Town Boogie isn't just about music and dance,some say it's a state of mind and others says it's all about swagg , and thats how I view it too.Their video is below.

My Thoughts on Blogging

The way I feel about blogging is an emotion that I would describe as a very cool sensation that I get feel each time I blog. I love that I get to express my feelings towards certain subjects that I really care about. Even though I do think its kinda stupid at some points, its a way that people can get to know me on a different level. I mean the first time I found out that we were going to blog in class, threw me off a little because I didn't understand what blogging had to do with perspectives, but then I began thinking about it more and I came to realize that it has to do with media and the world around us. Blogging is just a way to express your opinion to the public and a way to show the important things that happens around us. So now and then I do look forward to blogging, and then i get to thinking that I should've started blogging a long time ago.

The New Style


Let's just say scarves are in now. You probably have seen them on celbrities like Lil Wayne, Omarion, Kanye West, and Chris Brown just to name a few. They come in a variety of colors and styles. Most people(most guys) are wearing the shag style with a bold pattern on them like the one in the picture or the name brand ones like Louis Vuiton or Gucci. Others (girls) are wearing them in their hair or either the classic way, which is around your neck( duhhhh). The price range for this unique style will probably set you back about $9.99 to $24.99 just depending on who selling it, what brand it is, or what type of style it is. You can probably find these scarves at Hot Topic, Spencers, and Rue 21, just depending on where you shop.But go cop one, I bet you'll be the one with the sickest swagg around.






Now for the other side of sick swagg is the wallet chains/jean chains. These chains really make what you'er wearing pop out more. I have seen these chains on eveyone and I have seen them everywhere.They originated in the 1930s and 40s, when people used to wear them with zoot suits.But now the chains usually give you a rockstar feel. When I used to see them on people, it was mostly on goths (no offense), but now I see them on celebrities, my friends, and students at school. These chains cost $3.00 to $39.99, just depending on style category they are in or how well they're made.You can usually find these at Hot Topic, Spencers, local venders at the mall, and the internet.

All About Social- Networking


Woooooooowwwwwww, Myspace has made it big in the last few years or should I say six years. Since its debut in 2003, myspace has over two hundred million members with 230,00 new users getting added each day. The site had over 12 billion views since october 2005. The site hosts an inventive way of advertising media and music artists to their audience of young teens and adults with a good amount of income. The whole site alone is worth about 6 billion dollars(thats alot of dinero).The thing I love about myspace is that you can personalize your page by adding a background, music, and other posts. Like say for me I added Nike Dunks, Adidas, and Air Force ones on my posts because I love tennis shoes. Also you get to add interesting facts about youself that people might be interested in. So go log on, and add yourself a friend, and if you don't have one, what are you waiting for???!!! Go make one and enjoy yourself!

The Chi City Car Show


Mannnn you don't know how excited I am for the Chicago Auto Show, which happens every year. This show has everything that a young teenager would want, which is a Car!!! The show begins on Febuary 13th and ends on the 22nd. It always takes place at the McCormick Place. The tickets usually range from $10 to $16 dollars depending on whether you want good parking included. The thing I love about the show is that you get to see concept cars, which are cars that never go into production, but it gives you an inside view on the new technology and new trends that will be coming in the future. I also love that you get to sit in some of the cars that people dream of having If I were you I would go early so you don't have to push way through the crowds of people. So be sure to check that out, I'm sure you'll have a great time.
