Akon

Tuesday, December 6th, 2005

Akon, the Sengalese (sp?) artist is making some waves here and abroad. I was reading about Akon and apparently he is getting some recognition abroad as well as here in the states. So, being the hipster that I am, I decided to throw an Akon ringtone on my Nokia. I got that Belly Dancer […]

Chris Brown Tops Charts

Monday, November 21st, 2005

Just noticed that Chris Brown is topping this weeks charts with his single Run It!. And, there is a little secret for all of the Chris Brown fans in New York, he will be doing a special benefit for the first 500 customers who buy his new, self-titled, album at the Times Square Virgin […]

Ciara Wallpapers

Thursday, November 17th, 2005

I was looking to spruce up my desktop a little bit and I figured there was no better way to do it than with a picture of some hot musician. So, keeping it real, I found a cool Ciara wallpaper site around the corner and downloaded it. It is really easy to download images […]

Jaime Foxx Can Sing

Tuesday, November 8th, 2005

Badly Drawn Boy

Monday, October 31st, 2005

Michael Jackson Called to Jury Duty

Thursday, October 20th, 2005

If you can believe this one, Michael Jackson, has been summoned to jury duty in Santa Barbara. I guess you have to go to the BBC to find out about this stuff. The interesting thing is he will probably get out of serving because he is living in Bahrain and apparently has legal residency set […]

My Chemical Romance

Tuesday, October 4th, 2005

I have been getting into this band that you have probably heard of called, My Chemical Romance lately. I know that most bands don’t like to be told they sound like this guy or that band, but for the rest of us, My Chemical Romance sounds like a mix of Soundgarden meets Blink 182. […]

Porter Batiste Stoltz

Monday, July 18th, 2005

Porter Batiste Stoltz return to San Francisco on Friday, July 22 at the Independent. I had a chance to check them out last year when they made their way out west at the Independent and it was a great show. Up there with the likes of Soulive (one of my favorite bands), PBS can […]
