Female Group, TLC, Biopic Cast is Set!

We’ve jammed to their hits, we’ve mimicked their styles and in some way, shape, or form became fans of the power house, all-female group, TLC.  It’s no secret that their story was a roller-coaster ride with their financial troubles being public knowledge and with the untimely death of group member, Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes.  The remaining members, Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas and Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins, have agreed to a biopic which will feature an interesting cast!

Chilli, Left Eye and T-Boz will be played by Keke Palmer, Lil’ Mama, and Drew Sidora (respectively).  Some heat is already being thrown towards Keke Palmer for not “looking like” Chilli, but she’s firing back at her critics.  Here’s what she had to say on Twitter, in response to the flack she’s been getting:

I’m sure the biopic will be a success and I look forward to seeing it!  Plus, Ms. Palmer is correct, I’d rather see a movie with good actresses, as opposed to actresses that simply look like who they are portraying.

***Video*** Rihanna “Diamonds”

In honor of me LOVING Rihanna’s new album, Unapologetic, here goes the video for one of my favorite tracks.  Diamonds has definitely grown on me…it may even be my best friend!  Love, love, love…enjoy!

Day 2 of the “Made in America Festival” Live Stream!!!

The city of Philadelphia literally SHUT DOWN for the first annual Made in America music festival.  The first day of live music was absolutely mind blowing!  The roster was jam packed with performances from Jay Electronica, Janelle Monae, D’Angelo and many more, but the highlight of the entire day was the headline act that kicked off with Jay-Z himself.  In true Jay fashion, he paid homage to Philly when he brought out the Philly Freeway and Young Chris!  As if his performance couldn’t get any better, he kept the surprises coming with performances by G.O.O.D. Music, Common and a Watch the Throne tribute with Mr. Kanye West!  Check out some pics from his performance and the crowd, as well as, the line-up for day 2 of Made in America.

***New Video*** Dawn Richard “Wild N’ Faith”

You know I love sharing new music and videos with all of you!  This is the latest video that brings together two tracks, Wild N’ Young and Faith, from Dawn Richard’s current EP, Armor On.  The former Danity Kane member  is currently working on her new EP, Goldenheart, which releases in October.  Check out this artistically stimulating video that has a lot of similarities to Rihanna’s work (if you ask me):
