Lauryn Hill: Where Did She Go?
Can you believe that it has been 10 years since her last album! Man Lauryn where you at? It seems like she fell off once she started having kids. With the voice of an angelic siren to spitting the illest lyrics, Lauryn Hill’s music traps you with its pure sound and raspy texture into what should be coined as the “L-Boogie trance,” summoning a head bob with every verse. But the pondering question is: Where is L-Boogie now?
She's the epitome of pure, undeniable talent. Yet despite her tracks being on every one’s top-10 playlist, Ms. Hill is so far gone that she is now simply past our reach.
The fate of Lauryn Hill’s music and career is something that is never guaranteed. But like Kanye said on Champion, “I wish her [Lauryn’s] heart was still in rhyming.” Until then fans can keep Miseducation and The Score on heavy rotation or catch a glimpse of her while watching Sister Act 2, just to keep the old Lauryn resonating within.“Fantasy is what people want, but reality is what they need. I’ve just retired from the fantasy part,” she’s said of her disappearance in the past. Whether retirement or a long vacation, we’ll be awaiting the reappearance of our girl.
It's About Time!
So I was listening to my itune list of songs, and started listening music by SWV. Then I started to wonder, darn where is this group...they were really good!
Guess what SWV fans? There is talk that they are reuniting and coming out with an album this year(2010)! It's About Time!

saggin niggas
Origin:Sagging is commonly reported in the media as having originated from the prohibition of belts for inmates. Belts were banned because they could be used to commit suicide by hanging oneself, to strangle others, or as a weapon in fights.In the early 1990s, hip-hop artists popularized the style.Once upon a time there was a thing called modesty; it entailed respectfulness and decency. In that time it was frowned upon to show any unnecessary part of the human body.
Yet now it seems like that was a long, long time ago and we are in a land far from then. Our times have changed along with our clothing. Soon women started revealing their upper half, which was considered sexy or beautiful.The trend moved down from the cleavage of the chest to the cleavage of the backside, also known as the butt crack.This fashion development started with men. Pants that reveal undergarments, or come close to showing private areas, are disrespectful, inconvenient, and poorly represents the people who wear them and therefore should no longer be a fashion trend. Boys wearing their pants below the waist, also known as sagging, were not always considered trendy. In fact, to wear pants that sagged was humiliating. Around the 1940's, when many people were truly poor, clothes were exchanged to last as long as they could. Boys would have to wear pants many sizes too big for them and would therefore sag. Sagging of the pants was a way to distinguish the wealthy from the poor. This continued to be true until the 1950's when a Latino gang started sagging to have a definite style. They also were used in prison. In prison those baggy pants are the trademark of a prison prostitute and thus advertise availability.Sagging pants was never meant to be fashionable. Prisoners wear their pants because belts are a popular way to commit suicide by hanging oneself, to hang others, or to use as a weapon in fights. Prisoners are also not allowed to have shoestrings for the same reasons.Not until the 1970's did gangs start sagging to hide weapons. Sagging started moving from the ghetto; to everywhere else. Sagging was no longer an indicator of one's wealth, even boys that could afford pants that fit started sagging. Professional skaters and actors also began to wear pants that revealed their boxers. Wearing a fashion statement is usually used to set a person apart from everyone else, but can quickly become a trend if people think it is cool. Sagging or wearing low-riders is very common and does not set one apart. Therefore, people who wear sagging or low-ridding pants must do so because other people think it is cool. Sagging pants makes it difficult to perform many activities and sports, yet people still seem to do it.
They can be hazardous to your health. Doctors say these low rise pants, or hip huggers, can cause damage to a nerve causing numbness in the legs. If there is continual use of the pants it could become permanent (Parmar). There have been reports that several cases of boys tripping and falling over their sagging pants.Before a person can sit, stand up or even walk low pants need to be pulled up in order for them not to fall completely down. That requires more attention than clothes should need and make wearing them inconvenient. They also can cause serious injury or even death.
In some way [our] culture embraces this style as a fad. At some point we have to take greater responsibility for what we put on TV and start changing these images. We see images that perpetuate the idea that that it's okay. It becomes part of our heritage and it's really not. We have to set a community standard."
