    Lisa Ford / May 16, 2012

    Lil Wayne got on the mic and shouted out that he still loves rapper Trina at Club LIV in Miami 5/13/12. I usually don't get into artist's personal lives on this site, but I'm posting this because Trina is one of our Miami's own and we just wanna make sure that she ends up with the right person and is represented well. I think Trina and Lil Wayne would make a good couple...Trina would be good for his 'gangsta' image. Lil Wayne To Trina: "I…

    Lisa Ford / May 12, 2012

    This Chicago TEEN is taking over the rap game right now! Just like the city he reps, CHIEF KEEF, goes HARD, and the catch? He's authentic.

    RIHANNA – “Where Have You Been” (New VIDEO) & Is Rihanna Talented or Is It Just Hype

    Lisa Ford / April 30, 2012

Is she truly talented or just a fancy marketing gimmick packaged together by Jay Z…Let’s do a quick breakdown…. Rihanna’s #1 Hit, “Umbrella” was gimmicky, but it was catchy and extremely popular. The style was new and that “A, A, A” verse was eventually copied by many others in R&B and Hip Hop. The ballad “Murderer” definitely proved Rihanna had the vocal pipes and the title of…
