Women Wearing Wigs At 20?! Even Lil Kim is Disgusted
There's an epidemic that's been misleading the African American community for quite sometime now. An issue so important to African American males that some African American females have done their best to keep this a secret. What am I talking about? I'm talking about these "Lace Front Wigs" that have taken tackiness to a whole different level plateau. Yes that's right, it seems as if women have thrown away their hair extensions and traded them in for wigs which have become the new front for female insecurities everywhere. I must admit, Lace Front Wigs are a lot harder to recognize because of the strenuous process it takes to install the wig. 1st you must understand a Lace Front Wig is a wig made on a "lace base structure." The hair is hand tied strand by strand and in most cases bleached to give the illusion that the hair is actually growing from the scalp. The wig is attached with "adhesive" and can last anywhere from 3 days to a couple of weeks. It's utterly sad the length that some women will go to make themselves look attractive. If our ancestors knew we'd be gluing (YES GLUING) a wig to our hairlines, they'd probably give up now and continue to pick cotton. It's as we're ashamed of our natural God given looks. Quite sickening if you ask me. Kudos to the women who haven't yet made that horrible transition.
...Speaking of hair, will someone introduce this guy to a good barber.
With the release of Apple's latest edition to the Ipone scheduled for next week, I figured I'd gather a list of 5 of some of the most expensive phones which shockingly doesn't include the Iphone. All information below is done by my personal research and not a subsidiary company.
Stealth by Mobiado. This phone's front base is made from aluminum and sapphire crystal. The features include push to talk capability, video camera, and a microSD slot. Retail price: $1,450
ZX1 by ASUS & Lamborghini. This phone features a large touch screen, bluetooth technlogy, 3G data support, and a Global Positioning Sytem that is 2nd to none. Retail price: $1,500.
Steel by Gresso. This phone features metal used to contruct airplanes, as well as African ebony. The titanium keyboard is laser engraved and features Roman Numerals as labels. The operating system is ran by Windows Mobile 6. Retail price: $3,500.
Meridiist by Tag Heuer. This phone features over 430 components, crocodile skin, mp3 player, and monochrome OLED screen on top. Retail price $6,100 (and you thought his watches were expensive.)
Vertu Constellation Monogram by Nokia. One of my personal favorites along with Hip-Hop mogals such as Russle Simmons, and Sean Carter. This phone is 100% handcrafted in Europe, with a monogram leather back that's handprinted in a four-hour process! Retail price: $7,000 (good luck finding it).
....As you might have already guessed most of the phones mentioned are quite hard to find. However, if you're willing to spend 15% - 25% more than the retail value, then the Internet is your best friend.
As of today according to the Associated Press Barack Obama has successfully clinched Democratic presidential nomination. Poor Hillary must now kick rocks.
Finally anyone that knows me knows I'm a die hard Nas fan. I just like to take this time out to say Rest in Peace to his short lived and highly anticipated upcoming album title. We'll miss you NIGGER (no pun intended).
Final Thought: I've been very outspoken about hair weaves in general. So outspoken that people around me are often intimidated to either talk about it, or speak up on behalf of weaves. Now it's not just me, I've had this conversation with many guys before, and trust me we share the same passion. LoL...I don't know, call me old fashion....I just prefer more of a natural look.

Me, I like girls that have lengthy hair (their own) and is pretty. Lace Front Wigs...Im not to fond of supporting it but I think it's better than the Halle Berry joint-if no one knows. Noting that's it's a "lace base structure" and hand tied strand by strand, I know it's hard to determine.
-How ironic, like a month ago Matt was feeling this chick who had on a wig and didn't even know she was wearin' one. I hated to break the news to my man LMFAO.
No matter what the industry say Im still calling Nas' 9th studio album "Nigger". All the tracks are the same and so is the track listing (I researched it yesterday). They claim it it's self-titled but I think he might name it "The N". They keep pushing it back but the new scheduled release date is July 1, 2008. The album cover is the big letter "N" on his back like its tatted or drawn in pencil. This is my second most anticipated album of 2008. AZ-Undeniable was my first.
-Kobe going to the FINALS!!!
I believe the album cover you're referencing is the picture seen below. It's definitely not a tattoo, or a sketch of a pencil. It's actually "lashings" from a whip that slaves used to get when they disobeyed slave masters. I'm guessing this is his way of staying socially conscience and challenging the media's perception that racism no longer exists, regardless of the fact he was forced to remove his original album title.

Matthew-I actually have a "GREAT" Flickr account. No need to start comparing because I have my priorities set in place and place none over my Before, During, or After. To get a better understanding of that check out the archives of January 2008: Monica Lewinsky Endorses Barack Obama. Read my second comment and aplly it.
LBrandy-I gotta bring you out of retirement knowing that a # line never existed (I've only seen you once since then-not including physically).
Linda-You definately invited to my joint.
For the Record: I bring mine out.
Anderson dont get your panties in a bunch. ie. "For the Record: I bring mine out." I know.....I know its hard when you see yourself in a picture that YOU had taken in a booth at beggars with a female 48 hours into it. Your priorities are actually all fucked up I know about the tint ticket and the VI scheme, well bro it wont work your gonna end up in jail you dig!!!
Lynda dont play around with that ass you bring that over to this side and me and the L.I.T fam will set you properly. LOL!!!!
For the Record: Anderson Davies is one hell of a guy. LMAO!!!!!!!!!!

I found the Vertu phone for $4,500 on Ebay. I recently just got a nice refund check from my school. Do you think it's worth the risk?
Sumbodi give dat guy Matt a hug. He sounds veerrryyyy mad.
Spending $4,500 on eBay never sounds like a good idea. I've had a couple of bad experiences, so use caution.
New update for Nas new album "Nigger". The release date has been pushed back to July 15, 2008. I finally decided to listen to some of the leaked tracks. For months I wouldn't listen to anything off the album until it actually dropped (excluding mixtapes). My New York connect tried to give me a few songs a few months ago but I refused. I can't wait another two weeks. My favorite joint off the album is N.I.G.G.E.R (The Slave & The Master). Some have to grow on me but for the most part I like it.
They say we NI, double G, ER, we are much more, still we choose to ignore the obvious, man this history don't acknowledge us, we was scholars long before colleges. They say we NI, double G, ER, we are much more, but still we choose to ignore the obvious, we are the slave and the master what you looking for, you the question and the answer.
