MILEY CYRUS’ EASTER PHOTOSHOOT

Love or hate Miley Cyrus- you have to agree that she is gorgeous. About twenty minutes ago she just released her Easter themed photoshoot for the huge day this Sunday and it’s the most adorable thing I’ve ever seen. She is literally all of our wives.

Check out the pictures here:

This has to be the best one

Of course, there had to be a playful one- it is, in fact, Miley Cyrus.

I love the pin-up style and pink themed photo shoot. I don’t know what it has to do with her music- because I didn’t even know she was religious but it’s always great to see Miley Cyrus on every social media platform available. I’m definitely going to save one of these for my wallpaper.

“Hoppy” Easter everybody!

[FENTY BEAUTY] RIHANNA IS TRYING TO KILL US

Rihanna has been putting out beauty products and clothing lines all year. She really is on top of her game. Not only has she dominated the music industry, she is now coming for our closets.

Fenty Beauty, Rihanna’s makeup line, just released a teaser for her new makeup products, a brand new all-over-body highlighter called “Body Lava.” It includes two shades of the body luminizer.

She took to Instagram to show all her fans the shades of her new beauty products.

[NEW RELEASE “BE CAREFUL”] CARDI B IS ACTING DIFFERENT

Cardi B just released her latest single from her debut album, Invasion of Privacy, which is set to drop next Friday, April 6. The song is entitled, “Be Careful.”

Listen to the song here:

The first thing I noticed about this song was the cover art. Cardi is shown wearing a completely pink outfit combined with pink fishnets, and a really stylish purple wig. The major issue I have with this, is that it is a rip off from Nicki Minaj. It is actually really obvious that she is copying Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday. I understand that it is just a color, but you can’t dismiss the cultural significance of Nicki Minaj’s first album that defined her as one of the biggest names in rap. Also after Punk Friday, she released Pink Friday… Roman Reloaded in 2011. Then in 2014, she released The Pinkprint. Pink has been Nicki Minaj’s image for her entire career. Lil Kim even accused Nicki of copying her style. So is this the trend of female rappers? Everyone just copying off of everyone’s success. Cardi could have had a different cover so I don’t know why she would choose to do something that doesn’t set her apart from the crowd.

Next is the song, even though I do like the track it just doesn’t have the star quality that “Bodack Yellow” has. I can imagine this track being on the album but I wouldn’t suspect it to be the main single to tease the album. I also thought “Bartier Cardi” had so much more star power. She should have released the music video before dropping the single.

The feedback has certainly been mixed. Some people think the track has a raw sound that is unlike anything in the industry right now. The track is certainly real. But other people say that they think it is absolute trash and that her singing is horrible. I do agree that she probably should have put someone else on the chorus because singing doesn’t seem to be her strong suit. I expect there to be a remix.

Regardless Cardi is standing behind the track:

I guess we will all make our final judgements on April 6th.

MIKE ZOMBIE IS THE ROB IN TOWN

Mike Zombie is a rapper that is making his way through the game. Originally from Willingboro New Jersey, he is certainly representing our state in the best light. He has been Grammy nominated and won a BET award in the process. He is a multi-platinum in-house producer/artist for #OVO SOUND. He has worked with artists such as Drake, Hollow Da Don, Tsu Surf, Rick Ross, Meek Mill, Boogie, Benzi Ayo, Wiz Khalifa, & Casey Veggies. He has released three albums including The End Of The Beginning in 2013, Rebel Without A Cause in 2015 and Humble Genius in 2016.

Check out his music here:

“616”:

“Cash Money:”

“The Jig:”

He is an artist that certainly has a lot of talent and has helped other artists write songs for their albums. He has a vision and raw talent to excel in this game. Also, his music videos have a lot of creativity to really display the message in his songs. He already has a great experience in the industry and I would expect him to have a break out hit in the next few months. We need someone in rap that isn’t sticking to a mumble rap style and he is willing to go out of the box.

[STRANGER THINGS IS STRANGE] SEASON 3?

Stranger Things, the hit Netflix show that premiered on July 15th, 2016 was a smash hit that impacted our culture. The show is centered around a young boy that disappears and his mother, police chief, and his friends must combat terrifying forces in order to get him back. The cast was mostly composed of child actors including Finn Wolfhard, Millie Bobby Brown, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin and of course the incredibly famous Winona Ryder.

Just check out the trailer for the first season here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWxyRG_tckY

The first season of the show was groundbreaking. It was a perfect combination of mystery with an 80s spin. The show really did look like something that was produced before its time and had a great script that kept everyone guessing for the entire time. It was truly an enjoyable watch.

After the first season premiered, everyone sat patiently and waited for season two to premiere. Season two premiered on October 27th, 2017 and everyone ran to watch it. But as soon as they watched at least two of the episodes- almost everyone with high standards became instantly disappointed.

The main problem with the script and storyline was that Stranger Things thought it was bigger than it was. It played on everything the fans wanted and left so many details out to create an extremely confusing plotline that didn’t follow a central theme. For example, with the absence of the main female character Eleven, they place another girl into the mix- named Max and she does absolutely nothing to add to the story to the point where I’m unsure why she’s there- also why did she have a beyond creepy relationship with her brother? Then they were extremely corny and placed jokes that fans would want in there and really played up the romance between Eleven and Mike when it really wasn’t that highlighted in the first season. Then episode eight is where I lost it- eleven and her sidekick friends including eight, nine and ten team up for God knows what reason. The acting couldn’t even save this scene. The show basically just got cocky with their level of fame that they forgot to actually make a show.

But a few days ago, season three of Stranger Things has been making a lot of buzz- I don’t even know how it got approved again. The release date hasn’t been confirmed yet but filming will be starting around mid-April. The fans expect for the show to be released sometime in 2019. Season three will take place one year from the previous finale. All of season two’s main cast will be coming back.

So what will the season be about?

I have no idea, but I won’t be watching it. It seems like this show got caught up in its level of fame and completely lost their original touch. I expect bad writing, bad acting and product placements (hello Eggo Waffles & KFC). I couldn’t imagine anyone enjoying season two and definitely not enough to watch another season. Hopefully, the writers know they are under fire and will take that into consideration for the next season.
