Friday Love Notes: Is It Better To Be A Jump Off Or A Wife?
In an age where it seems evil is good and ying is yang, jump off's are getting better perks than wives are. How is that you're a jumpoff yet you're cast on the Real Housewives Of Atlanta? While the wife of the same man who paid for the jumpoff's boobs, lips and "makeup" has to grin and bear it, albeit with some benefits of her own I'm sure. Wouldn't want to give up that title of Mrs. Big would we? Why should she? What is the purpose of getting married in this new age of celebrity fanatics (stans) and reality ...

It's Friday night in the Knowles-Carter household and Beyonce has had an amazing week. Her new perfume Heat is the number #1 selling fragrance and she just took home 6 Grammy's, a first for any woman ever. She's at home sleeping in his T-shirt when in walks Jay-Z who just came back from sitting courtside, Knicks and Nets giving him high-5's. After this amazingly successful week for his loving wife all he has to say is: "You just won 6 Grammy's, you smell good, now what about that baby you promised me in Dangerously In Love?" I don't think it's meant ...
Friday Love Notes: Is Your Value System A Major Influence When Choosing A Lifelong Mate?
A value system is defined as a set of consistent ethic values (more specifically the personal and cultural values) and measures used for the purpose of ethical or ideological integrity. A well defined value system is a moral code. Most children are taught & shown different things by their parents & neighbors that shape who we are for years to come. At that age we have a limited sight distance that consists of our family, schoolmates & members of our place of worship. When we turn 18 and venture off into the world how much of these teachings do we carry ...

As ambitious men navigating your way through perilous, rocky crossroads in your career, it would seem likely that when you arrive to the top of your game you want the lovely lady standing next to you to be at your level. They say to get to the top you have to step on a lot of people on the way up. Is your down ass chick someone that gets sacrificed in the climb?

Video: Nivea “Love Hurts” starring Lil Wayne
Posted by cmongood on March 3rd, 2010
I see she still wearing her engagement ring…hmmm.
From the good folks over at The Remedy LLC
In the final days before reporting for his highly-publicized impending jail sentence, Grammy Award-winning, multi-platinum rapper Lil Wayne has been very busy, squeezing in as much work as he can before his 8-12 month sentence at Riker’s Island. And his every move has been very well documented, from the 10 videos he shot with Young Money in one night, to his impromptu appearance alongside Young Jeezy during the Madison Square Garden stop of Jay-Z’s Blueprint 3 Tour on Tuesday (Mar 2).
The one thing that has YET to be documented was his last minute decision to appear in ex-girlfriend Nivea’s first video from her forthcoming fourth studio album Purple Heart. The clip for “Love Hurts,” finds Nivea revisiting the memories of an ended romance. As she walks through the house she once shared with her former love, played by Wayne, Nivea revisits the good times and bad.
Wayne agreed to appear in the video on just two days’ notice, appearing on set for close to two hours of the nearly 12-hour shoot, less than a week before his scheduled sentencing. With Wayne now scheduled to be sentenced today (Mar 3), Nivea, the mother of Wayne’s three-month-old son, is one of the many artists offering words of encouragement:
“Wayne, I pray for your endurance during this difficult time. Know that your mind, heart, spirit and talent will prove to be stronger than the confinement of those walls.”
The “Love Hurts” video features a never before heard remix of the song, which was originally released on Valentine’s Day. Purple Hearts is due out in late Summer 2010
