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

"Stabbed in the Back" ~ Idiom definitions

"It's just a figure of speech!" id·i·om /ˈidēəm/ Noun: A group of words established by usage as having a meaning not deducible from those of the individual words (e.g., raining cats and dogs). A form of expression natural to a language, person, or group of people: "he had a feeling for phrase and idiom". It's funny the way that we often learn things in language and communication, without realizing what it is that we actually learned. Idioms have become so common that even kids understand the meanings of many of them. Idioms assist in the flow of figurative language, but can often be lost in translation; meaning that others who didn't grow up in that culture might not be able to connect the dots. Below I have listed a few. Feel free to join in with others that you may know. "to throw a monkey wrench in the plans" "you put your foot in it" (referring to cooking) "you put your foot into ...

PONY Teamed Up With Keep-A-Breast :-)

Ok so, I came across this site that was advertising some Pony sneakers. Well I LOVE SNEAKERS!!!!!! So I decided to see what they were all about. It turns out that Pony teamed up with an organization named Keep-A-Breast (yes we would like to keep those things) and together they came up with a line of sneakers. The really kool thing about it is that the Keep-A-Breast organization feels that this will help to spread breast cancer awareness AND supposedly "$3 from each pair goes toward breast cancer research". Well I LOVE SNEAKERS, and to support causes (oh did i mention how much i love sneakers? lol)....soooooo sounds good 2 me! Check it out and tell me what you think. Thanks!
