I don't do RED Meat John ;-)

Sooooooo John Mayer is crying while he apologizes for his remarks...Get outta here John ;-O

Love how he pulled the "I got Black friends, Check out my Musicians & Background Singers"...Cute


Why is John crying a river? Well, in a recent Playboy interview he used the "N Word" in an attempt to be "Clever" when discussing hood passes. WAIT: Did I just say "N Word"? LMAO
“Someone asked me the other day, ‘what does it feel like now to have a hood pass?’ And by the way, it’s sort of a contradiction in terms, because if you really had a hood pass, you could call it a n****r pass.,’” Mayer said. “Why are you pulling a punch and calling it a hood pass if you really have a hood pass? But I said, ‘I can’t really have a hood pass. I’ve never walked into a restaurant, asked for a table and been told ‘we’re full.’”

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm, I'm trying to get the whole "I was trying to be clever thing"....I'll re-read it a couple times...Maybe call Sampson Simpson & see if somehow this dude is so Clever that it went right over my head.

Anyways, I didn't know about the "Nigga" talk, I only knew that his "penis was like a White Supremacist"...In the Playboy interview, he had this to say about dating Black Women...

PLAYBOY: Do black women throw themselves at you?

MAYER: I don’t think I open myself to it. My di-k is sort of like a white supremacist. I’ve got a Benetton heart and a fu–in’ David Duke cock. I’m going to start dating separately from my di-k.

PLAYBOY: Let’s put some names out there. Let’s get specific.

MAYER: I always thought Holly Robinson Peete was gorgeous. Every white dude loved Hilary from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. And Kerry Washington. She’s superhot, and she’s also white-girl crazy. Kerry Washington would break your heart like a white girl. Just all of a sudden she’d be like, “Yeah, I sucked his di-k. Whatever.” And you’d be like, “What? We weren’t talking about that.”


Well John, I still think you make some pretty DOPE music, but as I often say to people that need to shut their mouths...Go SAD!!! But wait, I don't think I had to tell him to do that...He was probably already taking care of that one ;-O

By the way, I don't do Red Meat Anyways John...How U like that

Always,
Ms. Dia

Soooooooooooooooo, I'm in a DETroit State of Mind right now...I know it might sound cliche, but seriously...I am! Soooooooo, I felt like hearing Monica Blaire sing "I'm From Deeeeeeeeeeeetroit" & I went to Youtube only to find that a number of versions are now available...Okay, so I went thru all of them & here is my take on each song...The Good! The Bad & The WTF were U thinkin!

DISCLAIMER: My City is like a Family Member...Yeah, the Family can Talk about her, but when people outside of the Family talk about her...It hit my ears in a way I'm not too happy with...Anyways, let's go!

Ro Spit & Monica Blaire
- Renaissance State of Mind ( Official Video ) by VANDAL



GOOD: Well Executed...Tight Verses...Video Quality is Dope...MONICA killed that hook!!! GO MONICA!

BAD:
I can honestly say I HATE when people say they rep a city that they are not from. Tho Ro acknowledged he's from Pontiac (Whatup Yac-town)...I'm NOT feelin that!

UGLY: They did such a good job with it (especially Monica) that I keep it in Heavy Rotation...Just wish Slum V, Royce, Boog Brown or Black Milk would've connected w/Monica to get it done...Still Wish U the Best Ro ;-)


DETROIT STATE OF MIND BY HIIP HOP




GOOD: I really liked his verses...I thought it was a good representation of Detroit...Intelligent, yet Hood ;-)...and...The news clips were good!

BAD: Tho I liked the Clips, that song is All about the release you get when it's time to SING!

UGLY: Ro already got Monica...Dayuum!



D-Boy - Factory State of Grind (Empire State of Mind/Detroit Version)




GOOD: He Admitted that he is NOT from Detroit...Str8 up, when Young Whites (18-35) claim they are from Detroit...DO A BACKGROUND CHECK...Hey, I Love my White folks, but TRUST when I say, if we're talking about Detroit-Detroit...Ummmmmmmmmmm, it's not hard to find out if they were Really raised there because it was only like 5 in every school. Another Good...Dude can Rhyme & it was Smart, Clever...I liked it.

BAD:
Lil Momma didn't move me all that much, but she was cool.

UGLY:
Ummmmmmmmm, don't really have anything else to say...I liked him.

Detroit State of Mind - Mike Young & Karolina McGovern



GOOD: I'M AN AMERICAN & I HAD THE RIGHT TO EXIT OUT OF THAT BS! Wait, It was 1 Good thing...I LMAO @ the Chick creepin around the corner on the hook like she was about to Go to Church on us...;0

BAD:
WE DON'T HAVE A PATROL BOOTH SET UP ONLINE THAT WILL DO THE BACKGROUND CHECK I MENTIONED IN THE PREVIOUS SECTION...I GOTTA SEE YOUR TRANSCRIPT FELLA, IF IT'S NOT AT LEAST 1 DPS on THERE...CITIZENSHIP REVOKED!

UGLY: It's was soooooooooo Ugly, I Cried ;-)

DETROITers....What's your take on the songs?

I'm out,

Ms. Dia

Black Milk, Black Spade & Gotta Be Karim in ATL on THE SHOW!

Shouts to SENOR KAOS, CHICAGOrilla, Obanga & the Crew for the footage!


We had BLACK MILK, BLACK SPADE & GOTTA BE KARIM on THE SHOW - ATL & it was good finally meeting them. If you have not Checked for these guys....DO SO!

We talked about the Music, DILLA, Detroit & Radio...Here is the Black Milk Interview!

Sooooooooo I Know...I Know....It's been a long time : (

I know......It's been a long time, but we're working on that : ) Anyways, some GREAT things went down since we've been together.

1 - 3 on 3rd was the BEST it's ever been! I'm not speaking just of the Talent...Though they were incredible...I'm speaking of it being overall what I planned when coming up with the concept. The Audience was INCREDIBLE!!! Looking forward to the next one, but in the meantime, make sure you come see us at Apache - Oct 16th for I LOVE FASHION! I'm premiering my PURSE-N-ALL-EYES-IT line!




2 - GOODIE MOB REUNION in ATL!!! OMG! This was one of the BEST nights EVER! I can't say what it meant to Atlanta Natives because I'm sure it was something bigger than what any of us "transplants" could understand, but as a HIP HOPPAH & SOUL CHILD...It was Magical! Georgie Me hosting was the BEST marriage of the Minds & I can seriously say I was soooooooooooo Proud of ALL involved!





3 - I said BYE to Betsy : ( She's been w/me for a long time, but now it's time to Move On!!! Thanks Pops for her...I loved her : )
