Photo Cred: DatPiff

The female reign in the music industry is rapidly taking over from being world entertainers, rappers, songwriters to even producers. In this day in age there are no limitations between young women when it comes to making their mark in the music industry, especially those taking the independent route. This young emcee/singer by the name Sydtastic from Atlanta, Georgia. Sydtastic is an up and coming rapper/songwriter/producer just released her new mixtape titled 'Six Deadly Sins'. 

Taking popular songs from rappers and singers, Sydtastic took them and spun them around her own way. Of course, she's rapping her own lyrics and stories on top of these beats, but the way she takes the songs and truly makes them her own is her phenomenal form of how she see's her music. Sydtastic's music reminds you of a 90's classic hip-hop with an early 2000's r&b vibe. I'll most describe her as a cross between Queen Latifah and MC Lyte!

Lifetime Network Presents Steel Magnolias [Trailer]

Here's the 2012 trailer for the 1989 remake of Steel Magnolias. Queen Latifah who is one of the  producers of the movie also stars in it along with Alfree Woodard, Jill Scott, Phylicia Rashad, Condola Rashad, Adepero Oduye, Lance Gross, Michael Beasley and Tory Kittles. The television film is set to air October 7, on the Lifetime Network. I'm very delighted the movie has an all black cast and very eager to see how the new cast will play each character from the 1989 classic. If i'm not mistaken i've read somewhere Queen Latifah said the movie followed the same format but is more modern. 

Throwback Thursday: Living Single

Since the big thing to do on Thursdays is putting old pictures up on social networking sites and calling it Throwback Thursday, I decided to join in. Back in the early to late 90s before Sex and the City, there was a show of four African-American woman living singly in a brownstone apartment out in Brooklyn, New York entitled Living Single. 

The four woman Khadijah James (Queen Latifah), Synclaire James-Jones (Kim Coles), Maxine "Max" Felice Shaw (Erika Alexander) and Regina "Regine" Hunter (Kim Fields) all together made being single and living in New York the LIFE. 

Although there were relationships that sprouted along the way, this great unforgettable show will always be a favorite of mine. It was mostly the comedy that was shared between each character. 

How many of you remember Living Single?

You can catch episodes of the show on tvONE which seems to air frequently throughout the station.
