Re: Lil’ Wayne Disses Jay-Z On “It’s Good” ft. Drake & Jadakiss [NEW MUSIC]

Lil' Wayne said "Get that 'how much you love your lady money'" not "Keep that 'how much you love your lady money." When I read that lyric above, I was thinking, that does NOT make sense. Please correct.

I'm kinda blown by this one because if anybody else had been sent to prison for the same reason he is and told them to wait until they got their teeth fixed, I think the judge and guards would've laughed and punched him in the mouth for good measure. But...to each his own.

I couldn't get into it. I did it for one day, but I felt like one of those creepy people who won't show their own face and pose as famous people so I took it down. It was a photo of Aisha Tyler while it was up.

Chancler, I'm just now seeing this blog on Google, but thanks for the co-sign. Rihanna is really doing some strange things right now, and I don't quite understand what she's trying to prove by being half-naked on everything and talking about sex all the time. But regardless of what she does or he does, I buy their music. I could care less about their personalities unless they start singing songs about beating the hell out of each other to the beat. And if Rihanna forgives him, who am I to say I don't? I wasn't even there.

Apologist for the day? That's an interesting way to put it. I really do believe that an entertainer is not an automatic role model. Would I want him to date someone I know? No. Will I buy his music? Yes.

Ah, Maxwell's "Pretty Wings." *swaying in my seat* When I have some free time I'll go through your playlist. I'm finishing up some work right now, but real quick: 1) Yes, you can link as many things as you like. Link away! Thanks for the support. 2) I never heard Lena Horne's version, at least I don't think so but I'll verify that later in the day.

Glad I could help. I've been meaning to put that list together forever because people ask me all the time how do I do this and that as a vegetarian. I just did that recently to put all of my articles, interviews, recipes, etc. in one cohesive package.
And whatever this song is that's playing in the background is beautiful. There's some woman singing who sounds like Chaka Khan, but I can't find who it is on this page.

*scrolling* Oh, it is Chaka Khan. I've never heard "Stormy Weather" before.

A little under 5 years, I believe. This link pretty much breaks down every piece of advice I can give you to transition: http://www.chicagonow.com/b.... There are soy versions of soy cheese, soy yogurt, and soy ice cream, but they definitely don't taste like dairy products and are an acquired taste.

I can definitely agree with you about the chicken analysis. This is why I became a vegetarian years ago. If it wasn't for milk chocolate and store-bought popcorn, I'd be considered a vegan. Those are the only two things I can't let go of, and I'm really not that crazy about soy cheese and soy yogurt but I'm trying to make myself like it. I think I'm more comfortable as a vegetarian though.
