Either way, NICKI MINAJ is really looking HOTT when she's not so much into her VERY VIBRANT VIBE. Check out her GUCCI purse, which is a really popular model called the Jockey Hobo, for about $1,400. I see a few women with these, 7 out of 10 which are probably KNOCK-OFFS *LoL*, but still nice, nonetheless...
But I have an illusion here in deciding whether the purse is HUGE or Nicki is really small...
Ladies, pair this up with anything that includes denim jeans, and you are good to go!!
Now I'm not one to talk about this kind of music that Birdman makes, just fashion, but I do have to call out something RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW.
People have been speculating whether Cash Money CEO Birdman had purchased an $8M Maybach Exelero.* And guess what.... HE DID... he tweeted that he did:
“8million 0n a whip all red.blievetht.custom made.ymcmb.”
This just made me plain fall out. WHY?? In the name of beneficial non-profits needing funding, in the name of hunger worldwide, WHYYYYY??? There's nothing wrong with having maybe an $8 MILLION MANSION if someone has plenty of money to spare or maybe an $8 MILLION building to do good deeds for people, but an $8 MILLION supercar just to satisfy an ego? Do you know how many self-esteems/egos $8 MILLION can boost up with receiving a trunk full of free groceries or clothes??
Birdman, CASH MONEY RECORDS... Stop this FOOLERY!!!
*The Maybach Exelero has a ridiculous price of $8 MILLION. The only perk to the price is that Maybach will build this car ONLY if you request it to be built; a serious down payment is needed first, and you have full control on all color/texture/performance options of the car, included in the price tag.

I am a shallow music listener because usually I don't take the time to find out anything about the band I am listening to. I figure, they sound good, why bother finding out anything about them? Unless of course they are really, really good. (Did you know that Little Birdy was named after a Ween song?) The Vessels made me endeavour to discover something interesting as their music was so interesting, and this would also allow me to tack something onto the end of my recommendation.
“Have you heard the Vessels? Oh! You should they are good and *INSERT INTERSTING COMMENT HERE*”
So, off to google I go and the first thing I find is their webpage (handy thing > http://vesselsband.com/ ) and discover they are British. This may not seem major to many people but I am a real sucker for British music (I know... I am a traitor to my own country) and this seemed like something I ought to follow on with. I then found out that they had a previous album that they released back in 2008 (Don't worry. It is downloading now.) They also consist of five members; Tim Mitchell, Martin Teff, Tom Evans, Lee J. Malcolm and Peter Wright.
Moving on from my lame background information that most of you probably know already...
Helioscope. Good stuff. Actually, really good stuff. Considering I had to wait two hours for it to download because I went over my limit, it had better have been. It didn't disappoint.
The first song on the album "Monoform" served as a way of calming me down from the murderous- throw- my- laptop- out- of- the- window point I was at. It is sort of trippy and reminds me a little of "M4" by the Faunts but more rock. "The Trap" keeps the mood.
The first vocals on the album start at "Recur" and I like it. It is simple and perfectly compliments the complicated almost rock music your ears are now revealed to.
"Later Than You Think" opens with a calming soft sound that has you straining to pick out what exactly it is. The music then builds your suspense as it becomes louder and closer to you then fades off and opens up to another complicated, rhythmic and creative part of the song. The sound at the beginning then fades out, and it opens up to reveal another layer, then comes back to the sound. It goes round and round like this and it is a piece of music that is very well thought out and planned but still holds a spontaneous feeling in it as you aren't quite sure what the next layer it holds.
So maybe I am just a little girl on the inside because I was giggling for several minutes because of the title, and the lyrics of "Meatman, Piano Tuner, Prostitute", “We'll ride horses, After we bathe together.” This is not because I am an insensitive, immature person but because a few of my straight male friends were joking about riding horses naked together the very same night... Seemed like an odd and funny coincidence to me... After I got over my own personal problems I really had to respect this song for its creativity and musical talents. The eerie sweet tinkling music and right of stage singing gives way to the end rock climax.
"Art/Choke" then continues the rock mood "Meatman, Piano Tuner and Prostitute" just set up, but minus the vocals. It builds the rock mood, then breaks off to allow for some fancy frett work, then builds again. Heal takes you back into the electronic sounds that the Vessels seem to have mastered.
"All Our Ends" is my favourite song on the album. Vocals, electronic music, the complicated layering all perfectly matched and really hits the spot.
Finally, "Spun Infinite" is the prefect end to Helioscope with note holding lyrics to electronic mixed music. It seems quite a sad song, due to the elongated sound over the minor notes.
All in all, a good album. The strong instrumental and electronic sounds are quite polished with the vocals enhancing the music instead of being the reason to have the music. Refreshing and invigorating to listen to.
This is a look I can give TWO THUMBS UP. Because before... Solange was coming off as a little strange and set far apart from her superstar sister, Beyonce.
Of course I was not at WESTMINSTER ABBEY to take these pictures. Remember that my blog THE ONLY JAIDEN is comprised of images that captivate my eyes, and I simply want to share with you my interests. So...

I'm just taking a look back at Beyonce's styles in the notorious music video 'Single Ladies' and the sassy bad girl video "DIVA." it's hard to believe that these are considered OLD music videos, yet the strengths of these videos make it appear so fresh and recent.
Some of Beyonce's looks, especially the swimsuit in 'Single Ladies', can definitely rock out at the beach, while the rest of the looks in 'DIVA' can easily incorporate itself into a high-powered photo shoot (should you ladies ever decide to do one).
Take a look at the videos and more screen shots:
'Single Ladies'
'DIVA'
Even though this is from 2009, this kind of look will still SCORCH and SMOLDER in 2011...
THE ONLY JAIDEN applauds the power of this look that can still turn heads after 2 years. An effect like that is considered CLASSIC.
Come on, Strasberg and Stanislavski, let's rev up my affective (race?) memory and feel the pillage! (I'm German-American, so surely there's pillaging memory in there somewhere....) I, in the spirit of the pillaging Viking hordes (pretty sure that name's copywritten), have written this entire review of Sweden's Amon Amarth and their newest, Surtur Rising, while drinking mead.
Mead-- the honey-wine every Viking and his mother drank.
You're welcome.
You know how Goddamn hard it is to find mead around here?
The things I do for you....
So: the Mead I actually found, Oliver's Camelot Mead, tastes like, well, Honey wine (though apparently I should've tried this or thiskind). A lot stronger than beer, less so than wine, it tastes like really light liquid honey with alcohol in it. I can't stand wine, but this is not bad. Not as good as beer, which I do so enjoy, but not bad at all.
One 5 oz. serving in: Opener "War of the Gods" hammers in the intro theme with a crushing downbeat with melody that segues into a chorus that you could chant over a fire.... Amon Amarth sound confident and strong, and old Viking ruler --Odin?-- who's seen a lot and knows it back to front...will make you mad mead is so hard to get in comparison to beer;
Former albums have been fairly filler-dense, with a couple or three songs that are so good you forget the rest... I'm curious how this will pan out....
"Töck's Taunt: Loke's Treachery Part II" follows their pattern in songwriting: somewhat memorable verse followed by hooky-in-a- somehow-Viking way chorus... not quite as good as the first track, but quite good... we fade out into:
"Destroyer of the Universe" which thrashes its ways, at 200 bpm, into a rager of a tune-- sounding like a cousin to "Twilight of the Thunder God" from their previous work, this time faster and with more solos and riffs....
"Slaves of Fear" a rager, though not to the previous degree, but is nothing near filler and rages and rages and rages....
Two Servings (10 oz.) in: "Live Without Regrets" continues the Viking-themed melody with death metal vocals motif... but does little new with it, Amon Amarth's riffing in B standard, a fifth below standard tuning... somehow making up for the lack of nuance....
"The Last Stand of Frej" is suitable epic (and yet tragic) in its sonic recounting of the tale of the Norse goddess of majick, war and death... fades out to "For Victory or Death," which, clichéd title or no, which starts like a combination of Mercyful Fate and Bay Area Thrash....
Forget "Wrath of the Norsemen" overall, though at 2:10 it drops briefly into a nice little dirge/breakdown... "A Beast Am I" brings the fury back at 230 bpm, leaves behind the melody and just fucking rages....
"Doom Over Dead Man," though I'm not sure what the title means, is perhaps the most emotional (read: bittersweet) track on here-- primitive instrument melodies about: conches, horns, shouts, abound... the rallying cry of a race (sadly?) long dead....
Long may they live...!!
And: though you know always what you're getting....
Bottom Line (15 ozs. in):
It's their stride. This is feasting hall music.
This is music you scream with your barbarian friends after you've bested Grendel's Mother.
This is war music that manages to avoid the cheese of Manowar (said with love).
Now hoist your Goddamned tankards...!
To Amon Amarth!!! To Mount Doom!!!
May their kingdom resist weather, time and treachery...!

A whole lotta people are switching it up these days.
I guess change is eminent because everyone wants to be different or do something different. Rihanna changed her hair to RED, Chris Brown dyed his hair BLONDE (it's back to black now), Cassie now has BOTH SIDES of her head shaved, and WIllow Smith.... she's got everything going on top of her head.
So check out Shia LaBeouf's new slick-back hairstyle with both sides of his head close-cropped. It is unclear whether this hairstyle will be for the upcoming TRANSFORMERS 3 movie, but I will say this... it's a nice, rocker look for Shia.
New York Knicks B-Baller Carmelo Anthony was spotted at the TIME 100 Gala Dinner For the 100 Most Influential People in the World, which included people like Oprah Winfrey, Barack Obama, Bruno Mars, and more.
Carmelo looked very dapper in his black suit, deep blue tux shirt with matching kerchief, and contrasting plaid bowtie; the glasses were a nice touch, too. LaLa accompanied him very well in an understating elegant black dress done right with a vintage belt and red clutch purse (BLACK and RED go very well together).
I’ve been neglecting my pile of recent Small Stone releases lately. They’ve been sitting here for a few weeks now and every time I try to get around to writing them the demands of reality (ugh!) demand my attention and another day slips by. But not anymore! Here a triple decker of new stuff from the unusually consistent rock label.
Suplecs - Mad Oak Redoux
First up is the new one from Suplecs called Mad Oak Redoux. This New Orleans outfit has been going for about 15 years and show no signs of mellowing out. I’d never heard these guys before and really enjoyed their mix of classic influences like Black Sabbath and The Misfits merged with Soundgarden, Melvins and Nirvana. About half the songs are short and fast and they stretch out on some of the longer ones. “Stand Alone” reminds me a lot of forgotten Louisville titans Kinghorse with their mix of Sabotage-era Sabbath riffs with a big Danziggy chorus. “Fema Man” is a suitably pissed off song about hurricane Katrina and all the bullshit that went on afterwards. “Switchblade” and “2x4” are the longest songs, about 6 minutes each, and pound heavy. 10 songs, 40 minutes. Hit and quit it. Nice one.
If you keep your records in alphabetical order and have Thin Lizzy right next to Tool then chances are Lo-Pan is for you. Fast, heavy, pissed off music with strong vocals and plenty of good hooks. There are some great guitar freak outs that would make both Tommy Bolin and Piggy from VoiVod smile. Lo-Pan hails from Columbus, OH and try as they might they cannot escape the classic rock stranglehold that exists in that part of the country but they’re way too heavy for any commercial rock station. Good songwriting and plenty of dynamics keep some of the longer songs from getting dull. Maybe they can convince Eric Moore of The Godz to contribute to the next one.
I always liked the name Ironweed and now that I’ve heard their music I like that a lot, too. Hailing from the New York state capitol, Ironweed are easily the best thing to come from Albany since Blotto. Ironweed are a straight ahead pummeling metal band. Two crushing guitars, pounding rhythm section and lots of good yelling, Ironweed remind me of another great Small Stone band Solace. Fans of anything hard n heavy ranging from vintage Judas Priest to D.R.I. will love Ironweed. Starving iron dogs will feast upon this bloody platter of raw riff metal.
It’s worth noting that all three of these releases were produced and recorded by Benny Grotto at Mad Oak Studios in Boston. The sound is hard, clear and punchy and will definitely sound good in your car as flip off the slow pokes in the right lane.
Angela Simmons was spotted out leaving her hotel, wearing this beautiful, fun, and flirty striped dress, and golden flats in tone with her accessories (Chanel bag and GREY ANT sunglasses are a nice touch as well...)
Whaddaya think?
Great legs, great style, great NON-UPPITY attitude...
Glee Star Naya Rivera bared skin while out in New York. She was filming for the FOX hit show "GLEE' and while I'm not sure if what she's wearing is for the filming but she looked quite the HOTT one wearing daisy dukes and a bare midriff shirt.
Hmm... must be warm in the BIG APPLE today.
Ladies, would you wear this look better than Naya?
People are so used to sticking with weather traditions that boots cannot be worn in the spring or summer, with the exception of rain boots. Of course, one cannot wear big chunky UGGS or other winter boots in the summer, you can look plain CRAZY. But wearing canvas boots or part canvas/part leather like PHARRELL WILLIAMS of N.E.R.D. did, you cannot go wrong.
I know I cannot go wrong if I pair up some canvas boots with my Dickies shorts or cargo shorts and a white or black tee. TRY IT GUYS!!!

The first thing you will notice about the new LP released by this LA based band is the fourteen song length. Now, I am no expert but fourteen songs is longer than the average LP, especially if they are of this quality. All of the songs are really good and the sound is built to suit the content. Due to their changing style and story telling it manages to keep you interested throughout the entire fourteen songs.
As I have mentioned, Meekos&Me is a LA based band. They are comprised of guitarist, songwriter and singer Joey Colando and classically trained cellist Danny Grab. Anxious Little Turtles is their debut release and gives a glimpse of the greatness that is to come. It is difficult to sum them up into a single genre as it is clearly a work of creative collaboration rather than a decision to make a folk band or a rock band.
“Entropy” is the opening of the album. With good acoustics and cello support and creative, clever lyrics it gets you ready for what is to come. “I say I love you, You say you love me. But oh my god, Its been way too long. Strength divides the weak from the strong”
It is surprising how well the electric sound from the guitar and the classical cello work together in “Grove Street”, accompanied with soulful vocals and lyrics about separation. Tied together to make a neat package. “We've got green plants in the garden It was nothing before we stared And I know that So stop your whining Get away from me, if you are crying.”
“Underwater Dream” is a song about a merman's love for a human and is recorded to sounds muffled and bubbly, as if you were underwater as well. It really shows of the duo's creative outlook on their music. “I can walk on water, on the bottom of the sea, And when I talk to you, you can't understand me.”
“Animals in my Room” immediately caught my attention because of the opening with the Kookaburra laugh and the other lyrics that refer to Australian animals, “Kangaroos, Polar bears, Owls with their crazy stares, And I am scared” This was released as the single and it is easy to see why. It represents the album well with its eccentricity that still stays between the lines of normalcy.
“Mountains in the Rearview” has a “hillbilly” sound to it with banjo like sounds and the pitch climb that hillbilly music has. Additionally, interesting lyrics. “I'm going home, Because you're back home. Every night we are the last to fall asleep, We talk about music And we act so casually”
“Steven and Kirsten” is one of those growing up and moving on songs that most people are going to relate to. It is lyrically well written with a country sound to it (think tambourines). I especially related to it as it is pretty much how I ended up moving to the city. Just decided to one day and packed. “All she wanted to know, Is why you move so slow, All you have to do is pack and go”
Joey Colando's talent on the guitar is on showcase with “Fantasies and Fairies” being carried by his brilliant fingerpicking style. With creative lyrics it is another exceptional song. “Fantasies and flying fairies Are you insane? Act your age. You gotta act your age These days”
“Umbrella” opens with Danny Grab's cello solo then breaks into being rhythm based. The cello stills features largely in this song and has a really good sound to it. “I saw you laugh a lot the other day You looked so cute Do you think you look any other way?”
“If I Don't” has a great acoustics accompanied by soulful cello which is perfectly matched for this love song. “I'll be with you some day, I will. I'll be with you one day, My heart always will.”
“Whistle” is another sweet acoustic song that has almost dark lyrics to it. Unexpected but brilliant. “But I whistle everyday Cause I have nothing to say. I lose my mind with you I will someday Oh, one day.”
“Kid Things” another song that is percussion and cello dominated but it then opens to a surprising electric guitar climax. It was really enjoyable hearing it open up and explode like that.
“Whistle (reprise)” is the only song on the album that is not full length. Whistling to the tune of “Whistle” it is a sweet way to wrap things up.
Overall, a really creative album. It is enjoyable to listen to and I will be on the look out for their next releases.
It's nice to see something fun, influential, and wildly captivating.
Beyonce released, per first lady MICHELLE OBAMA, her music video 'Move Your Body' as a video campaign to encourage kids who are overweight to lose weight in a fun manner. In the video are a variety of dances, especially popular ones like the 'DOUGIE' and the 'CAT DADDY.'
And on the STYLE SIDE, Beyonce and the kids looked great in their urban clothes, especially QUEEN BEY in her comical neon green legwarmers..
Here's what Beyonce had to say:
“I am excited to be part of this effort that addresses a public health crisis,” stated Beyoncé. “First Lady Michelle Obama deserves credit for tackling this issue directly, and I applaud the NAB Education Foundation for trying to make a positive difference in the lives of our schoolchildren.”
We're about to have some skinny, good-looking kids... and we just might get the DANCING BUG this summer!!!
The Smith family, more specifically Jaden Smith, Willow Smith, and Jada Pinkett Smith, are looking HOTT, HOTT, HOTT. This is a FAMILY LOOKBOOK. Yes, Yes, Bravo, Bravissimo!!
*LoL*
These three excellent attention grabbers were at the White House this past Easter Sunday for an event. Jaden Smith wore-- what caught my eyes-- was the COMME DES GARCON Heart Print Tee that stuck out of his cool black cardigan (also by Comme Des Garcon), for $109.
Willow Smith looked her flamboyant self, yet like a 'fun and classy girl' in her knit oufit and 'candy-looking' lime-green sneakers.
And JADA... MY MY MY... seems to get better with age! Check out her Lanvin ankle-wrap wedges for $1,120...
WAYY HOTT!!
These LANVINs -- The star of the show! Sexy sexy sexy.... :-)
