The outfit is truly amazing along with a big wig, fishnets and leather. One thing I love about Nicki is her sense of style. She is seen lip-synching the song as if she was one of her fans posting the video up to their story. I love the personability of the video along with her exaggerated expressions- which she is known for. You really have to be the queen of rap to film a music video on SnapChat.
Hopefully the real video drops soon, I’ll be counting down!
Throughout her career and chart dominance, she earned her the title of Queen of Soul during a time where black women were not respected. She became the symbol of black empowerment during the civil rights movement.
We have to honor the people that made music what it is today and the faces of the civil right movement that paved the way for other musicians and public figures to have a voice.
Kanye West, the ultimate philosopher has always been open to sharing his views on the world. Throughout his career, he has been enlightened to see outside the box. His music displays this because he is not afraid to go into other genres and mashup styles- making him one of the greatest rappers of all time. Some say that his views about the world are too much and it has given him the reputation of being crazy.
As Kanye West raps in his song, “Feedback” on his Life Of Pablo release,
“Name one genius that ain’t crazy”
He might be referring to this interview on Ellen:

As an open-minded person and a creative one, it would make sense to write a book.
Here are the official statements he put out about his up and coming book:
oh by the way this is my book that I'm writing in real time. No publisher or publicist will tell me what to put where or how many pages to write. This is not a financial opportunity this is an innate need to be expressive.
I will work on this "book" when I feel it. When We sit still in the mornings We get hit with so many ideas and so many things We want to express. When I read this tweet to myself I didn't like how much I used the word I so I changed the I's to We's.
Here are some of the Tweets we might suspect will be in his book:
when you first wake up don't hop right on the phone or the internet or even speak to anyone for even up to an hour if possible. Just be still and enjoy your own imagination. It's better than any movie.
Be here now. Be in the moment. The now is the greatest moment of our lives and it just keeps getting better. The bad parts the boring parts the parts with high anxiety. Embrace every moment for its greatness. This is life. This is the greatest movie we will ever see.
There's love stories. Pain happiness. It's 3 dementional. There's taste touch sound. It's the most entertaining for of entertainment. Just being. We believe time is a man made construct. Actually time and money are both man made currency. Because you can spend them both.

I am extremely excited for Kanye’s book. I think he is a creative genius and someone who is in touch with himself. He has great insight and views on life. You can say what you want about Kanye West but he is certainly someone who has surpassed this mortal plane. Even if you think he is crazy, what he says is powerful and insightful. He might not be the next Aristotle but he is sure to make an impact with his vast audience.
They started off strong and I was really excited about this new ALT rock station. I thought it was great to have a station that played my favorite genre of music. I was expecting them to play more relevant alt-rock since that is the point but a few months later it seems like they are moving away from their original goal.
Overall 92.3 created an alt-rock station to play alt-rock but they seem to be moving away from this sound to put songs that are primary indie pop or alt-rock songs that have a pop influence. It seems like they are not doing too great and want to appeal to the masses so that the majority will still listen, but that isn’t the point of an alt-rock station. I think there has to be another alt-rock station to compete that actually stays true to their original message. It is also the first few months of their release so I hope they fix the kinks to be a great collective station.
If you love the song “Unfazed” by Lil Uzi Vert featuring The Weeknd then you have been listening to this song wrong. Lil Uzi Vert put up a great visualizer video for the song and it captures the fun and trippy energy.
Check out the Official Visualizer here:
Hey, we might not have a music video but this is pretty close.
Lil Uzi Vert has always been a huge fan of visualizers.
Check out the “Neon Guts” visualizer here:
And don’t forget about the “The Way Life Goes” Visualizer:
He has always been a creative soul. The graphics really help put these songs on the next level. I hope he continues to add this element to his discography. I wouldn’t say they are better than his music videos but hey it’s a lot better than a simple lyric video. Check out more of his work on his YouTube channel.
