Video Trailer: Trey Songz & Drake “Successful”

Trey Songz isn’t a name you hear often in Crunkland.

While the recipe for bourbon chicken inked on his chest still drives me wild after all these years I’m not waving around my stan flag for him quite yet. He’s proven he is talented and, um, has an ability to tweet about deep and psychological shit but I still need a little bit more before I sign off on him yet.

And naked flicks from photo booth would do the trick just fine.

With an album slated to drop next week if you haven’t already copped the leaked version here’s a preview for his latest visual offering with the J-Setting Canadian. That’s right, you inglorious bastards. 2009 is all about the video trailer.

SHAM. FUCKING. WOW.

Majorette tights are quickly becoming the hood’s new alternative to Spanx. Blame Queen Creole Crawfish and Katrina Laverne. In this last month I have seen a couple of guys and dolls waltzing around the club looking like they just stepped off the sidelines at Soldier Field. What’s your verdict?

Side note: Is Nuvo the official alcoholic beverage for the Breast Cancer Foundation? If not it should be! I want to break out my pink ribbon pin and make a change every time I see someone with a bottle. [Trina flicks via Trina Fan]

The “Oh, Word?” Side-Eye

Look at Michelle’s X-treme side-eye at this hideous and sort of violent depiction of Sojourner Truth. It’s the first sculpture of an black woman at the Capitol – and it’s whack. Why cut her in half so awkwardly and — worst — no arms? Something ain’t clean. Everybody’s smiling, but Michelle can’t hide the WTF. I call the pic: “Come and get your artist cousin.”

Court Side In ATL

A friend told me a few months ago the main reason he attends Atlanta Hawks home games is to network with different celebrities. So, this is what he is spending his lunch money on? Feel free to insert an Eli Porter pause and side-eye.

And I’m mad at myself for recognizing the blonde snow bunny on the side of Meerkat the Don from USDA’s “White Girl” video. Jeezy would be proud but Juanita Jordan would frown. That’s alright though, get it how you live girl!

Question of the Day

weeks300 Question of the Day

A former employee of Global Destiny Church has asked a Gwinnett judge to put Bishop Thomas W. Weeks III in jail for contempt of court because he failed to repay a debt to her.

A petition for contempt was filed Tuesday by Suzanne Ellis. The petition says that Weeks, and his church empire Global Destiny Inc. and TWIII Ministries Inc., never reimbursed Ellis for about $90,000 worth of items she was asked to buy as an employee.

After Ellis filed a lawsuit seeking repayment and reimbursement for attorney fees in 2007, Weeks’ attorneys reached an agreement to reconcile the debt last year. But Weeks did not make the payments as set forth in the agreement, the petition says.

The petition asks that Weeks be jailed for contempt of court for a time not to exceed 20 days and be compelled to comply with the earlier agreement. [source]

Something in the milk ain’t clean about this situation. Why couldn’t he cop the items himself? What could Bishop Weeks possibly drop 90G’s on? From the looks of things I am going to assume that it was tang related products.
