Yes I know that we are all surprised to even here me speak this girls name lolll but I am a music lover and Rihanna's new album Rated R definitely surprised me. As to Rihanna's previous albums they didn't seem like she was being real and "rugged" I guess she was just being to bubbly for me personally. Now i loved the whole "reggae" feel to her first album because those are her roots and that's where she excels best , hence "Pon De Replay". But personally I think Rated R is what Good Girl going bad should have been. With this album she has more of an edge that she thought she had in Good Girl Gone Bad. Rihanna has taken off the gloves on this record don't get me wrong she is no Anita Baker , BEYONCE!!, or Whitney Houston, however the album is good , it's solid to me. This album is on kind of the same page as Ashanti's first album. I don't know if it will match ashanti's album sales for that record but basically I'm saying the album is good , and you should definitely check it out.

This movie was EXCELLENT!!!, personally I'm going along with everyone else's predictions I definitely see a few Oscars for this movie especially my girl Monique. The sad thing about this movie is the depictions of the characters is what is really going on in some child's life and they are too afraid to speak about it. I think that movie really opened my eyes just to the fact that you really never really know what someone else is going through , or the trials and tribulations they face every day. The strength that the Precious character had throughout this movie was just amazing to overcome everything that was thrown at her from her mother , and her father is just commendable. If that would've been me wooooooooooo lawd mama would've been calling blue cross blue shield instead of the welfare office lollll. But you know what she did right because the ultimate pain a parent can ever have is losing their child, and there is no pain like it. I just can't understand why some parents treat their children in this type of manner, it just completely confuses me. But if you haven't already you definitely must go out, and support this movie you won't be disappointed.
