Beyonce's Lemonade

So Beyonce debuted Lemonade on HBO and it was interesting. It's been looping again and again as I type this out and more than an album, it's an artistic collage of expression. She expressed her love for her husband and family. The empathy and protest for the loss of black lives with a quiet tribute to those mothers impacted. She celebrated women and love. She expressed her dark side and crazy jealous womanly side! Haven't we all gone through those same range of emotions? But for those who are yearning for the new music, it was released at midnight on Tidal. If you have it then you received the ping! LOL I haven't listened to the released album on Tidal yet but I'm sure it includes the music from the HBO special. A few of the songs from the special seemed to be about her husband cheating on her which was a little odd because I hope that he isn't but who knows. She may have just picked songs from writers who followed a theme. Women sometime need motivation and a bit of stress to spark the creative juices so maybe it's just to make it spicy.

The best part to me was her little skit showing her and Jay displaying their matrimonial bond and really expressing their love. It was cute to see and then they incorporated their baby girl and clips from special days in their lives such as their wedding and the wedding of her mother. She also had a few guest appearances like Zendaya and Serena Williams displaying her body in full flaunt mode. while twerking.  I was like Ok now Serena... We see you... GET IT  Mama! Serena was unapologetic bold, curvaceous and definitely feeling herself as she should. That body takes work and is woman who has mastered her own craft so she has every right to display that work!

Weekend Ready

The weekend is finally here and I couldn't be happier. I so live for Friday's and good weather but unfortunately the weather will suck here in Jersey and there are no good movies that came out so my weekend will be a lazy one but it's all good. I'll take it regardless. I actually haven't been to the movies in a minute because there hasn't been any good releases recently but I am eagerly awaiting the release of Sausage Party. It looks like it will be a good one and I love a great comedy. Check out the trailer here and tell me you don't think this will be one of those great dark twisted humor films. I love it and can't wait.
Side note: the damn hotdog buns look gross as hell but I think that was part of the humor. Disgusting but I love it!

Recap of Award Shows

Last night Black Girls Rock aired and as expected it didn't disappoint. Surprisingly there was only Tracee Ellis Ross who hosted unlike previous years where she shared the responsibility with Regina King. Despite being a solo host this year she still did a great job and I absolutely loved all the costume changes.


On Sunday if you missed The iHeart Radio Awards show hosted by Jason Derulo you honestly didn't miss much. Jason as a host just came across as trying entirely too damn hard to seem cool and came across as extra corny but hey... it's a check right and I'm sure his fan based liked it!


As for my favorite awards show of the entire year I loved Tracee.... She was paying homage to her mom here and she killed it. Get it Ms. Ellis Ross! Her body stay on 10! #bodygoals
