One thing Bobby Brown should know by now: Stay away from cheering competitions. The last time Bobby got arrested in Boston it was at a cheerleader competition. Why should this time be any different? Mr. Brown, former R&B star, has been put behind bars after the lack of child support payments. As if this is [...]

NYC Council Member Leroy G. Comrie Jr. is leading the charge on the ban of the N-Word. After hearing black youth on a street in queens it seems as though with what time he has on his hands will introduce a bill to ban the word. This day in age many youth don’t understand the [...]

Jennifer Hudson won. What more reason do I need than that? No longer will her title be former American Idol contestant. She can put that behind her now. She is now Academy Award Winner Jennifer Hudson. Eat your heart out Pop Tart Beyonce (oh what a title that is).

This past Sunday, while looking through the paper, I came across the most shocking advertising I’ve ever seen. On the back of the Life Magazine was an ad. What I thought was my grandmother on the back of the paper (I was going crazy to think she was stripping for cash) is actually a Dove ad about anti-aging [...]

By Urban Thought at 22 February, 2007, 7:00 pm
After reading bad reviews about the movie Norbit I had to take the opportunity to see it. After all, I never trust film critics when it comes down to an Eddie Murphy (I probably should have said Academy Award Nominee, oh, I just did… LOL) movie. If you have high hopes and looking for a [...]

It is an interesting experience to go shopping these days rather than ten years ago. For one, ten years ago the moment you walked in the store people were all over you asking, “Can I help you?” Not actually asking cause they cared to ask but for the simple fact that the manager wanted them [...]

There is a monthly subscription of the same price which amounts to [...]

By Urban Thought at 15 February, 2007, 6:30 am
I’m all for hit songs but when you send a message that causes people to make stupid decisions then someone has got to say something. Irreplaceable, a hit song played on all the radio stations across the city happened to catch my ear as I was showering. It wasn’t my first time hearing the song [...]
