The Soul Train Music Awards

The Soul Train Music Awards was held in Atlanta, Ga and hosted by Terrance Howard and Taraji P. Henson. Once again they did an amazing job as host. Although I do feel that they talked a tad bit too much and it probably bored the viewers bc I was kinda bored at times.I must admit Taraji Killed the dance battle with Terrance loved how she Whipped her hair!!!!
The show opened up with an amazing perfomance from R. Kelly who song some of his old jams and finished it off with his new single "When a woman loves" He ended his new song with a 1950s doo whop performance which was very excellent. Probably one of the best perfomaces I have ever seen in the history of Award shows. There where also a special tribrute to my all time favorite singer in the world Anita Baker. Her tribute performance was song by Tamia, Chrissete Michelle, Faith Evans and many more. They also paid a tribrute to Ron Isely!!!There were also performances by Keyshia Cole, Jazmine Sullivan, Neyo, Ceelo, Erica Badu, Chante More and many more.
There were great nominees for great categories of music, but sadly not
everyone took home an award. Now lets check out who took home there Soul Train Music Award. Usher earned himself two awards One for "Album of the year" and the other was a tie with Tre Songz for "Best Male R&B/Soul". Alicia Keys also took home two awards"Record of the year" and "Best female R&B Soul". Ciara took home the"Best dance performance award". While B.O.B and Bruno Mars took home the "Song of the year Award" for the song Nothing on you.

Battle of the Barbies!!! Lil Kims disses Nicki Minaj after Nicki's Romans Revenge!!!!!




Lil Kim comes back with hard blows at Nicki!!!I guess she caught a peek of Nicki's songs which I feel she continued to talk about little Kim. Especially in the song Roman's Revenge which is on Nicki's Album Pink Friday!!In the song Black Friday Lil Kim addresses Nicki by reminding her that she was the first Barbie and she started the trend that Nicki swagger jacked from her!!!She also throws some hard blows by saying "Your last name got you were you are today, and There is not enough ass shots in the world to shit on me"Wow Kim that was harsh!!!! I generally feel that the dissing is ridiculous. I feel Kim should let Nicki shine and do whatever because her time has kinda ended. She's too old to even be entertaining this madness!Although I do feel her. I wouldnt disrespect the legend of rap!She did kinda start the barbie trend. Leave a comment and tell me what you think!!!!!

Nicki Minaj Pink Friday

Well Nicki Minaj does it again but this time with her own Album. Nicki released her first albm entitled Pinky Friday and I must admit its very hott!!!Nicki has artist colaborations with Rihanna, Eminem, Kanye and more. The album is a mixture of the Old Nicki and the New Nicki. She also switches it up on most songs by colaborating both Nicki's together. For the first album u did a great job Nicki!!! If I had to rate her albumn from a scale from 1-10 I would give Nicki a 9 she really deserves it!!!!!

Ria's Musical Palet #1 (Rihanna, Gucci Mane, Kanye West and Waka Flocka)

This is my first music blog whatsoever. I always like to discuss how I feel abt albums. Especially when it comes to people wasting money in this horrible recession. So I have pin pointed a few artist to discuss their albums. All of them have recents albums. Some dropped this week and some dropped a few wks to last month ago. This is what I think abt the albums. So here we go!!!!!!

Rihanna who has dropped her 5th albumn which is called Loud hit the stores and net on Nov 16, 2010. I personally think the album is ok. I feel that she kinda went a different way with this albumn than the last "Rated  R"and she didnt stay true to her fan base on this one. This whole albumn is upbeat tempos like some techno ish!!!!!!And I jus dnt think we are all use to it yet. If I had to give this album a rate from 1-10 I would honestly probably give it a 6.5.

Kanye West also dropped an album on the 16th of Nov entitled My twisted Dark Fantasy and that is exactly what it sounds like. Something dark and Twisted. I will admit I do like a few of the songs on the albumn but I do feel it to be a bit dark, sad, scary, demonic  a bit and just a totally different Kanye. If I had to rate this album I would give it 8 jus because its Kanye I will give him a few extra points!!!

Gucci Mane who is Atlanta's own and da coolest person I have ever parlayed with came out with his album entitled The Appeal: The State vs Roderick Davis. And I must say this is the best album I have heard come frm Gucci I like guccis albums all of them, but for some reason this one caught my attention and I cant keep it out of my cd player in my car or off my ipod. This album is full of Gucci flavor and I really do feel he is sorry for all his mistakes on this one. If I had to rate this I would give Gucci a 9!!!!

Last but not least Waka Flocka hmmmmm Waka has jus put out his first album entitled Flockaveli. All I to say is not a good look for the first album. I hated it!!!I couldnt even get into it. I slapped it out of the cd player as soon as I heard it. Wacka u have alot to do buddy. Let's start by putting well known artist on your album so people can relate and actually know who that person is. Dnt make your first album w a bunch of nobodies!!!If I had to rate this Im sry Waka I love u. I rep ATL w u all day but ur album is a 4 to me because you have 4 good songs lol!!!!Lets step it up!!!!
