In The Spotlite: Iggy, Azealia, & Snow!


In the Spotlite this time are three up and coming female rappers. A common thread shared among all three is that they don't exactly sound the way that they may appear, or the way that they'd be expected to sound !  Watch your back Nicki Minaj and hold the crown tight, because these wolves are coming for you, fully dressed in sheep clothing!

Iggy Azalea
Up first is Iggy Azalea.  She packs a mean punch in her hardcore lyrics.  Her flow somewhat sounds reminiscent of Bubba Sparxxx, in "My World".  She's a bad girl with sex appeal, and not to mention a pretty famous guy to support her. Recently signed to T.I.'s label Grand Hustle Records, Iggy now has the chance to show whether her bite is as big as her bark. Just one question...Aye mate, where is her Australian accent?! Oh did I forget to mention that she's from AUSTRALIA?!

Azealia Banks

Up next is Miss Azealia Banks representing Harlem, New York. Versatility seems to be her superpower, having a wide range from urban street, evoking her Lil' Kim in "L8R", to a M.I.A., Santogold sound mixed with techno in "212".  Teamed up with Adele's producer of "21", Paul Epworth, Azealia seems to be in good hands. She has released the title of  her soon to be debut album, which is  "Broke With  Expensive Taste".  Will her proper talking, valley girl swag win you over? 




Snow Tha Product
Last but not least, is Snow Tha Product holding it down for the Latinas.  Blessed with a quick tongue, she can give Twista a run for his money.  The lady may be little but her lyrical prowess holds weight like a freight train. With her Eminem-esque wordplay, she'll run circles around you and still have time to apply her lip gloss before you can catch up in "Unorthodox".  On top of that, she can do it all in English or Spanish! So take this time and as she would say, "Wake Ya Game Up". 

The ladies are in the building, stand up and bow down!

Sincerely, Me

IN THE SPOTLITE: LUKE JAMES

LUKE JAMES    Well, well, well I must say Luke James "I Want You" in my collection of great music. This man can sang, if you don't know you better ask somebody.   Representing New Orleans, this new found success has been a long time coming for Luke.  After a trio attempt didn't pan out, he landed the opportunity to sing backup for Tyrese, which led to a record deal for the duo 'Luke and Q'. But once again, that path was cut short. Yet, that didn't discourage him. He went on to assist in writing songs for artists such as Justin Beiber, Brittany Spears, Keri Hilson, and  Brandy.  Recently, he also appeared in Beyonce's video for "Run The World (Girls)". Now, the doors have opened again for him and this time he is going at it solo, which ultimately might be just what he needed. Luke James exudes sincerity, not only in his music but in his personality as well.  He doesn't want to just simply make songs that s...

New Segment : Poetry Corner

This is a segment where I'll showcase poetry. If you'd like your work to be featured you can hit me up on Facebook @ https://www.facebook.com/key.saunders or e-mail sincerelyme27@live.com IF I STAND AT THE TOILET TO PISS... If I stand at the toilet to piss, Does that make me a man? If I sit, does it make me less than? If I dye my hair blonde, color my eyes blue, and rob my skin of its natural brown pigmentation Will that make me Caucasian? If I don't, am I then African? If I yell "Hallelujah!" while giving up half of my check, stomach still queasy from the club the night before, Will 'He' save me? If I, being unbaptized, die while saving another's life, Is it just 'to Hell' with me? If my skin is burned from a fire and barely hanging on  for dear life, Does that make me ugly? If not, then why doesn't anyone see me? Oh they do stare, but they don't SEE me. If my body is s...

Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus

Do you ever find yourself frustrated when trying to communicate with the opposite sex? At times it can seem as if we speak two different languages or as if we aren't even the same species. How are we supposed to be together if we can't even talk to and understand one another? Apparently, we are expected to at some point figure it all out, but how can we when from the time we are kids we learn to communicate differently?  Women are more focused on connections and for men all talk and little action just doesn't make sense. This ultimately leads to a lot of frustration, arguments, insecurities, and unhappiness. Has this happened to you? Is that how you landed here on this site? Or perhaps you've read books and articles explaining how the genders brains are wired differently, offering tips on how to apply the information. But if you're like me, this can still leave you unsatisfied because what if we don't want to learn to communicate differently? Or wh...
