Man, I've been on this burnin' high. Downloading and burning all the cds I've been wanting for a while. But I've just stumbled upon Esperanza Spalding. She's a jazz singer and a bassist. But what I like most is her style. Her afro is totally my model. She has a long and full 'fro, that's what I'm going for, sigh, we shall see.

Pulchritudinous
Yeah I said it. Beauty is what I enjoy and want for myself. Its just getting up and doing something about it. I have all these ideas about the type of style I want to have, cultivate and display and then people do it before I can get to it. All I can do then is appreciate their ability to follow through. That takes talent and guts. Take Janelle Monae for instance. I've been dreaming of doing this for a while. She's like Afrocentric Bohemiaism meets Preppy Rockabilly...when you hear that you probably think, "how?" Well as you see in the picture, it works. She has a Lauryn Hill as a 50's Rockstar kinda vibe that I love. Enjoy this video one has to admit that the girl is talented.
