TTMMFW (3): The McGangBang

Things That Make Me Feel Weird (3): The McGangBang

Sooooooo apparently some McDonalds feature a risque off-menu item called the McGangBang... a fast food urban legend of sorts. This sandwich is essentially a McChicken Sandwich inside of a Double Cheeseburger. Check the McPicture:

I myself don't eat McDonalds aside from their breakfast sandwiches, but still plan on visiting my local Mickey D's and asking for one at the drive thru... and I don't know what makes me feel weirder... the raunchy name or the fact that people actually request AND eat this monstrosity. All I that comes to mind is 'When in Rome'. Fatties unite! i guess... ugh

Better than Lady Gaga?!

Sooooo at the beginning of the summer, this hott dance song was leaked called Silly Boy that supposedly featured Lady Gaga and RiRi. Everyone was up in arms about how the song was a diss-track against Chris Brown because of lyrics like "you had a good girl but you didn't know how to treat her" and "silly boy get out my face don't you like how regret tastes", etc. However, Kanye's blog mentioned that Rihanna and Lady Gaga contacted him saying they weren't the singers on the track. Just who is the mystery singer?! : Eva Simons. She's a true rockstar. Period. I think she would give Gaga a hard 'run for her money' if she had the chance. Dare I say she's better than Lady Gaga! Whachu think!?

Fam: From the Ground Up

Okay so I definitely have an obsession with underground/exclusive clothing brands (which reminds me... I need to start working to finance my habits); and I love supporting companies that are just starting especially when I know the people involved. Anyhoo, my new obsession is the sunnies I got from them. FLY on one hundred! Check em:

(JRay and I foolin before class LOL)

See?! They look good on the womens and the menfolk! Fam equips the influential. Are you the latter?

Things that Make Me Feel Weird (2)

My friend BLC showed us this on facebook and died laughin in the Union for a while. I love Kanye and agree with him wholeheartedly, but why he have to go and make that lil country-singin white girl cry on national television? ... shambles! Anyways, despite the typographical error and the blatant nature of this porn-pic, this ish is hilarious! :p

BAAAAHAHAHAHAH peep Ye in the back!

Lil Wayne: "It's My Cup, F@$k You!"

I love Lil Wayne. LOL Check it:

Mixtape Heaven

So Mick Boogie is doin HUGE things! I mean have you seen his press kit? *sigh* What a great Resume! Anyways, you seriously need to get up on him and his ish. I have 3 mixtapes of his in my possession that he made for his store (Motivation) so while checking the Moto blog, I decided to check out some more of his site and more of his mixtapes and simply fell in love.

His joints with Peter Bjorn & John and Adele will definitely get spins on my iPod... if one could actually get spins on anything other than a cd or record player of course (LOL)

-ReLiving Thing-

PB&J have that new genre-bending sound that I love so much. So when Mick mixed 13 of their songs with verses by some of my favorite hip hop artists (Talib, Big Sean, Wale, Rhymefest), I couldn't resist!

-1988-

Adele's smooth-ass voice and the golden era of hip hop (for me: the 80s) are two of my favorite things in music! So when Mick decided to put them together giving Adele's hit tracks an '88 rap feel, magic is created.

Every time good music is made, a music-loving angel gets their wings haha! So I guess Mick Boogie could be considered one of the 'fly'est!? ... you be the judge ;p

Lasonic I-Pod Ghetto Blaster

You could never fathom the degree to which I want this toy... Santa?! Please put this under my Christmas treeeee!!!! As soon as I get my first paycheck in the fall... blowin it on this baby! Plain and simple. AND DON'T YOU TRY TO STOP ME!!

(10/10) Back

Leaving my paradise to face the music that is my senior year at michigan was the MOST difficult... but now that I am all settled, it hasn't been that bad of an occurrence. I just have something to look forward to. A year from now I will be back in my city.

****But for now... I am back in Michigan to wreak havoc on the lame and the swagless ;p

To the Bigg Apple: Not a goodbye, but a see you later.

(9/10) For Guffly: GREENyc

So for a good portion of the summer I have had an internship with Guffly doing online marketing. Guffly.com is a one product per day website that prides itself in "Good Stuff for Good Living"! It has been a lot of fun learning with Guffly seeing as I never gave the environment and green-living much thought until the internship... So when I decided to go to New York , I said I would still continue supporting them. Thus, I have compiled a list of COOL ECO-FRIENDLYNESS IN THE CITY that never sleeps. Here goes:

1. Greenhouse (in SoHo)

Manhattan's first eco-friendly club is a hit! Greenhouse is an amazing nightclub with amazing DJs, an ultra-chic atmosphere, and a trendy New York crowd to match. No one leaves this eco-bar/lounge/club unhappy!

2. Habana Outpost (in Brooklyn)

Habana Outpost is only open in the summer due to it being run on solar energy! They have amazing margaritas and their specialty, spicy corn on the cob will not disappoint! Oh! and if you blend your own margarita using a bike to power the blender, they give you a major discount!

3. Green Depot

(in both Brooklyn AND Manhattan)

This place is so cool! It's just how it sounds, a Home Depot for the environmentally conscious. You would be surprised how many affordable products we could switch to that do a service to both our environment and our wallets.

4. W!nk Eco Beauty Bar

(in Brooklyn)

W!nk is a green spa focused on bringing "eco-chic beauty that's good for you and the earth". Get beautified while helping the environment! This one's for the gurls! :)

5. EcoFriendly Condos

Green Real Estate is the new black apparently. Having an eco-home in Manhattan has become as trendy as wearing skinny jeans and gladiator sandals! In fact, Leonardo DiCaprio has purchased a ecofriendly condo at Riverhouse overlooking the Hudson. Tre eco-chic!

(8/10) THE NEW HATE - AZIZ

LMAO I'm not so sure how I feel about the new song "Haters" by Ye and Jay-Z yet, but I am sure how I feel about Aziz! Love him! Hahah this man is HIGH-larious. I saw him in the movie Funny People this summer... and somewhere on TV too, I just can't remember where. But yea yall should definitely check this out. It's Aziz commenting on the track while its playin in the background. So... two for one! Comedy ANNNNDDDDD Hip Hop! Perfect. Check it: ;p

(7/10) Manhattan Moments 2

Here are more of my favorite pics from the second half of my NY trip o discovery!

Manhattan Moments 2 <3

This is a pic of MiCHi - The Collective.™ at Favela Cubana! One of my favorite spots in the city. I had a lot of fun the past few weeks with these folk (Ayo, Roberto, and Nikeisha). We decided over sushi and a few glasses of plum wine that we would join forces as 4 minorities from Michigan living in the city to support each other as we rise through the ranks in our respective creative industries. Get at us! ;p

Here we have Lisa, Chelso (The Paris to my Nicole) and myself at a rooftop art exhibit! My Godmother deserves the photo credit for this one. I had 3 visitors at once that weekend! It was wild, but I enjoyed their company!

Icecream with Imani- So Imani came to visit/see Little Dragon at Central Park. We didn't end up getting in to see them *pout*, but we managed. Who knew you had to be 2 hours early to see a Summer Stage Concert to get in?

So I'm the queen of double booking! For some reason it always happens to me! My roommates Wendy and Michelle (of the UN Crew) came for a weekend visit as well. And we all went out to eat. This whole table was full of Michigan students!

(6/10) Fashion's Night Out!

I won't be here when all this is happening but it sounds like a lotta fun! If you're still in NY yall better get you ass out to these department stores around 9pm on September 10th! There will be prizes, charity, celebs, sales, and clothes. All of this will be to celebrate American consumerism! LOL peep the vid:
