Love & Quality Time: Turning Boys into Men
Spoken By
Tiarah
"What a Man loves a Man honors. The issue is usually boy minds in man bodies. [...] The metamorphosis from boy to man has to be one of the most beautiful yet delicate changes that ever occur..ever. Unfortunately (& I don't know why- lack of Men fathers or emotional stability) many of our boys don't get there. We stress the importance of the role of the Man father in girls' lives. but I'd like to submit that it's even more important for boys. We talk a lot about there being a lot of hurt women out there, but there are a lot of hurt men out there as well."

Happy Easter From Diddy and His Crew (Photo)
Spoken By
Kayki
Christian, Jessie James, Chance, Diddy, D’Lila Star, Quincy, & Justin
Diddy and his kids are the cutest! I'm so loving their family picture tradition and how he's sharing them with us. Puff is one of my favorite celeb dads. He's always talking about his children, or taking pics with them, and spending fun time with them. You can tell he lives for his kids. The recent "Swervin' Sixteen" birthday party he threw for his mini me Christian was nothing short of everything for the 16 yr. old. Diddy is a cool dad.

Jay Z Joins Nas on Stage at Coachella
Spoken By
Kayki
Man, to see these two rock the stage together is always a treat to me. Especially because right in the heat of their beef back in the day, Nas who was my favorite rapper at the time introduced me to Jay Z. I was pretty intrigued by how well they dissed each other, but a big piece of me always wished they'd make up for moments just like this.

#Watch Outkast at Coachella 2014 (Full Video)
Spoken By
Kayki
It wasn't easy for Hip Hop lovers to go so long without the royal duo. Outkast is by far one of the most celebrated names in Hip Hop music-the two have been on somewhat of a hiatus for about nine years. Every once in a while a rumor would emerge that they were plotting a tour or a show or an album.. but nothing ever came of it.

LOL: Mr. Rat Joins The Subway Ride With Commuters & They Freak Out (Video)
Spoken By
Kayki
This may wig some of you out, but to me it was absolutely hilarious. I'm sure a normal Monday morning ride on the subway in New York is full of people reading newspapers or sucked into their phones. People probably expected Monday's ride to be similar, but it was a little more exciting as something decided to hop on the train with the commuters.

Fan Letter: Chilli Goes Down Usher Memory Lane on Instagram
Spoken By
Kayki
About once every three months we get the same tip sent to our inbox... "OMG! Usher and Chilli are back together!" We hardly ever pay much attention to it, because it's usually some story about how they were spotted leaving a hotel low key or something that no one can be sure of. Usher and Chilli haven't been together for something like ten years now, but it seems they made such an impact on fans that people are still waiting and hoping they'll return as a couple. Their chemistry was undeniable. I loved them too.
With that said, I wasn't surprised to receive an email last week with the same subject line. This time, various emails- all in the same day. These were slightly different. There was no sighting of the two together, no made up story about a family friend who knows them and knows they're secretly dating. No, this time the fans developed their theories from social media interaction with Chilli.

Are These the "Emoji of Color" We've Been Waiting On?
Spoken By
Kayki
Word around Smiley Town is that there are a few new faces soon to pop up everywhere!
One of the most talked about features of social media and text life is the emoji. They are cute little characters used to amplify expression. I remember that being one of the main perks of me switching over to an iPhone, I really liked the emoji feature at the time. One common frustration spoken of often is the fact that people of color are not well represented in the emoji world.

Albums You Need: THE 4KORNERS
Spoken By
Kayki
I purchased this project on iTunes last night, and I was immediately drawn into an inescapable love for it. This album is TEN years in the making, yes 10 years. The core group of members of The 4Korners- Clarence "TLee" Hill on Keys, James Thompson on Bass, Isaac Thompson on Guitar, and original drummer Pete Alexander started this project as an outlet for their own creative expression. Since then, drummers Lebron Remmer and now Jerrod Sullivan have also added their touch.

Awww man! Drizzy Drake just dropped some heat! Drake should prepare us. Sampling the Queen Lauryn Hill's "That Thing", Draft Day is Drake's recent record is in response to a lot of the talk surrounding his name lately.
