So if u dont kno, im glad to tell u that Kelis is one of my favortist artist (her and Christina Aguilera). But I decided to put one of her vids up from the "Kelis Was Here" album.
I cant buy the video from iTunes (cuz its not there) which has me extremely depressed. lol. So heres the next best thing, a youtube clip.
But i really luv this song, It features Cee-Lo. The meaning of the song and her style n tha vid co-inside perfectly together. Ive always found inspiration on her willingness to try something new and daring without regards to any one else.
p.s. the video was created in 2007 so tha style is 100% original. gotta luv tha idea of havin shaved side first!! & if any 1 can find me tha moon jacket id greatly appreciate it.
But here is tha vid, enjoy!!
(lyrics are below)
[Kelis:]
There is nothing special about me
I am just a little star
If it seems like I'm shining
It's probably a reflection of something you already are
I forget about myself some time when there's so many others around
When deep inside you feels darkest, that is where I can always be found
That is where I can always be found
That is where I can always be found
[Cee-Lo:]
Just keep trying and trying
It's just a matter of timing
Though the grinding is tiring
Don't let it stop you from smiling
Just keep trying and trying
Sooner or later you'll find it
It's surprising how inspiring
It is to see you shining
'Cause in the dark of the night you're all I can see
And you sure look like a star to me
[Kelis:]
There is nothing special about me
I am just a little star
If you try to reach out and touch me
You'll see that I'm not really that far
Oh, I may not be the brightest, nor am I the last one you'll see
But as long as you notice, that's just fine with me
Everything's just fine with me
Everything's just fine with me
[Cee-Lo:]
Just keep trying and trying
It's just a matter of timing
Though the grinding is tiring
Don't let it stop you from smiling
Just keep trying and trying
Sooner or later you'll find it
It's surprising how inspiring
It is to see you shining
'Cause in the dark of the night you're all I can see
And you sure look like a star to me
[Kelis:]
There is nothing special about me
I am just a little star
I've been running and jumping
But barely getting, getting over the bar
I plan on being much more than I am but that's in do time
But until then I'm guilty, and being human's my crime
Being human that is my crime
Being human that is my crime
[Cee-Lo:]
Just keep trying and trying
It's just a matter of timing
Though the grinding is tiring
Don't let it stop you from smiling
Just keep trying and trying
Sooner or later you'll find it
It's surprising how inspiring
It is to see you shining
'Cause in the dark of the night you're all I can see
And you sure look like a star to me

Why u Jackin My Swagga??

If I must say so, Swagger is indeed one of the words that I will be the most happiest to see go. Yea I get it, tha idea was cute at first but now tha terms is jus used WAY too much now!!
Maybe its jus my strong urge to be different in this very similar universe where adjectives are sure to clash....But im jus tired of everybody "Jackin everybody eleses swag" or "Loving everybody eleses swag".
Im not sayin that I havent used the word, but its somethings that I can surely count on one hand for tha numbers of times ive used it. lol
Why cant people jus hav personas or style anymore?? If you kno, please let me kno. But im gonna stop before it seems like im angry or bitter.
Who even came up with that word anyway??

Andy Warhol & Pop Art
So I jus wanted to put up some evidence of what I was babbling about n my last blog. Here are some clips.....
Color Orgy: New Inspirations
So latley Ive found that I am finding new inspirations. I dunno if its my next step in evoloution...or jus me growing up summore.
One of the biggest things ive found is that color is starting to spark new ideas n my thought process. Wether it b sumthin that im trying to wear or the influence it has on my mood now, but I find that this new "creative" energy is sumthin I do enjoy.
Whenever I see colors, especially bright neon type colors, i start thinkin of the most random things. It has started to create new ideas n my head, allowing me to explore new areas that Id normally not consider. One of the most evident is its abillity to render my mood. Not saying that if u flash a diff color card n my face that you will get a diff reaction each time, but it does make my brain tip off.
I have started to look into art as well, Andy Warhol type art. Ive always enjoyed art, but now I like to find art with different color elements or 3 dimensional pieces. Ive found an appreciation for it now and I think its hella cool if your into art or lookin to change your outlook or gain new inspiration.
I appreciate this "new energy" cuz who knows what it will help me to create (im a mad scientist). So if u see me out and about with all these diff type of colors and artistic type s*it on, feel free to point and laugh cuz i will join u!! lol (see, im doing it now) lol!! But I doubt that'll happen like that cuz ill b sure to look fly... even if it is n my own mind.
