The 2010 census is upon us, and with that comes a lot of advertising...and more importantly, CASH! The government has been spending a ton of money in New York City prepping for this census....Here is one spot i came across that i thought was pretty cool.

Black Thought (Part3)


There has been a major controversy over a billboard in Atlanta Georgia sponsored by an ant-abortion group at “TOOMANYABORTED.COM” that states “Black Children are an Endangered Species”. The billboard was put up to raise awareness in the African American community. Statistics show that African American Women are more likely to get an abortion than a white woman. Stats also show that the pregnancy rate for African American women are comparable to Latino women however, the abortion rate is higher for African American women. Many people attribute this as one of the major causes for Latinos surpassing Blacks in number of minorities in the U.S. I agree with the notion that awareness is needed in African American Communities however, I feel that the billboard is very offensive. I believe that it just adds a negative stigma to the already heavily stereotyped African American community. Instead of ridiculing Black women for aborting their babies, they should invest more resources into pregnancy prevention. Then maybe the pregnancy rate will decrease and hopefully make these abortion clinics obsolete. I personally don’t believe in abortions yet, I am pro-choice. I don’t believe in killing babies but as a man I don’t feel that I have the right to tell a woman what to do with her body.

Fakin Jax

(Italiano)

I know that everyone, with the exception of me likes the new MTV reality show “Jersey Shore” which has recently landed a deal to do a second season; yet, I wonder how the fans are going to embrace the show now that two of it’s cast members were found not to even be Italian at all!

Whose Hotter (part 6)

This past year Joe Budden’s two ex-girlfriends had been making headline all over hip-hop sites. Never mind the dram, I wonder who’s hotter between the two!

Tahiry’s assets might overshadow her beauty and talent but she seems like a real down to earth person. She came on the scene a little over a year ago and was criticized for dating rapper Fabolous then dating Joe Budden who are both good friends in the Hip-Hop world.


However, Tahiry dated Fab a long time ago and was with Joey for over 5 years. That doesn’t really qualify as gold digger or groupie status; or does it? Those magazine covers, music videos, and blog exposure didn’t come from who she was but rather who she dated. I’m pretty sure this wasn’t her plans from the jump off but her career did jump off because she jumped off with jump off Joe Budden… hope I didn’t lose you!


Jump off Joe Buddens’s jump off Somaya Reece is bad no question and gives Tahiry some real competition no doubt. After Tahery and Joey broke up I knew is next piece wasn’t going to be as bad as her but I was wrong.


Model, actress, attentions starved groupie, whatever you want to call her she got exactly what she wanted which is attention and exposure. She was the topic of discussion on hip-hip blog sites for a little while. Whether it was about her mini feud with rapper Fabolous or her being Joe Budden’s rebound chic, Somya Reece seems to be a chic that wants to get on by any means necessary, even if it means dating Joe Budden.



Winner is…

Agree with me or not, I won’t be mad either way!

Who's Hotter (Part 5)

Selma Hayek went from that chic in the “Desperado” movie to a well known actress and one of the most famous Latin actors in all of Hollywood.

Still to this day after having a child and getting married to the same guy twice, Selma is able to maintain that appeal we all first saw in “Desperados”. Although it is evident that family has taken precedence over her career at this point, Selma still has the ability to bounce back and still be a prominent figure in Hollywood!








Penelope Cruz is more noticed for her looks than her movies although she is a good actress her exoticness and Spanish accent seems to overshadow her talents.
On screen she leaves little to the imagination but off screen she is a classy individual who handles herself well in the limelight, weather she’s dating a Cruz more famous that she is or at a red carpet event with her good friend Selma, an equal counterpart.







Winner is…

I Think I’m right on this one…What u think?

Ten Years Later: Big Pun Lives On



The Super Bowl isn't the only momentous occasion being celebrated this weekend. Sun. Feb 7 also marks the ten year anniversary of Big Pun's death. Taken from the rap game at just 28 years old, the prolific emcee left an undeniable mark in hip-hop, being the first solo Latino rapper to earn platinum-selling accolades. To celebrate the Bronx-bred lyricist's mark in the music industry, producers Buckwild, Green Lantern and Sean C & LV, with the help of DJ Soul and G Bo the Pro, are teaming together to release the 'Big Pun Tribute.' Think you've heard every Pun track out there? These industry vets don't think so. Read more here.
