Web Wednesday: Black Girl with Long Hair
26 May
I’m all about the hair! Hair care products, accessories and cool chicks with natural hair showing variety give me ideas for my own natural tresses. Black Girl with Long Hair is an ever-growing community of black, Latina and multi-racial women who choose to wear their hair naturally — with minimal or no use of chemicals, heat, weave or extensions. One of my favorite posts is the young kids with natural hair.

Nas and Damian Marley’s Distant Relatives and Janelle Monae’s The Archandroid Drop Today
18 May
Super excited for today’s album release (both I’ll be downloading from iTunes, please support good music). The highly anticipated Distant Relatives from Nas an Damian Marley. I’ve been ignoring all the pre-leaks so that I can enjoy the full album in its entirety.
Janelle Monae’s The Arch Android also drop, I love her eclectic sound and “Tightrope” is one of my favorite songs right now, so I’m excited to hear more material from her this time around.
S&V Video Round Up
14 May
Drake’s “Find Your Love” premiered on radio just a few weeks after, but now we know what he was doing in Jamaica. Mavado makes a cameo as “the badman”. Pretty sure you can figure how it ends.
Gyptian is steady climbing up the Billboard charts with “Hold Yuh”. Nothing special about the video, but love the song none the less.
Alicia Keys delivers a great video concept with “Unthinkable” featuring Chad Michael Murray as her love interest. I love that the message of interracial relationships crossing various time periods.
Diddy & ‘em Dirty Money release a video for “Hello, Goodmorning”, but it’s a huge yawn.
