New Music/Video: Lily Allen Hard Out Here + 10 Things It Reminded Me Of

Here it is! Lily's back. I don't why people are saying this song/video is racist. Let's take a look at the lyrics:

I suppose I should tell you what this bitch is thinking
You'll find me in the studio and not in the kitchen
I won't be bragging 'bout my cars or talking 'bout my chains
Don't need to shake my ass for you 'cause I've got a brain

If I told you 'bout my sex life, you'd call me a slut
When boys be talking about their bitches, no one's making a fuss
There's a glass ceiling to break, uh-huh, there's money to make
And now it's time to speed it up 'cause I can't move at this pace

[Bridge]
Sometimes it's hard to find the words to say
I'll go ahead and say them anyway
Forget your balls and grow a pair of tits

[Chorus]
It's hard, it's hard, it's hard out here for a bitch
It's hard, for a bitch (for a bitch)
For a bitch, it's hard
It's hard out here for a bitch
It's hard, for a bitch (for a bitch)
For a bitch, it's hard
It's hard out here

You're not a size six, and you're not good looking
Well, you better be rich, or be real good at cooking
You should probably lose some weight
'Cause we can't see your bones
You should probably fix your face or you'll end up on your own

Don't you want to have somebody who objectifies you?
Have you thought about your butt? Who's gonna tear it in two?
We've never had it so good, uh-huh, we're out of the woods
And if you can't detect the sarcasm, you've misunderstood

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

A bitch, a bitch, a bitch, bitch, bitch [x4]

Inequality promises that it's here to stay
Always trust the injustice 'cause it's not going away
Inequality promises that it's here to stay
Always trust the injustice 'cause it's not going away

[Bridge]

[Chorus x2] 

 

This is quintessentially Lily Allen:

 

 

Now onto the things it reminded me of:

 

 

There was other videos it reminded me of, so I'll just put the image up and ask for some help!

 

And how can it be racist if she has a Notorious B.I.G dress on:

 

 

Word of the day is racist and here is the definition:

 

a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another

or

having or showing the belief that a particular race is superior to another.

Event Review: Skylar Grey/TeamMate @ U Street Music Hall

 

I went to this show on a whim. It wasn't expensive ($15) and I listened to the album before and thought it was a decent effort. I went down to U Street and was looking for the venue with no luck. I finally figured it out when I saw the almighty sign:

 

 

 

Inside seemed to fit the outside because this truly was a hole in the wall, it gives H street a run for its money: Rock N Roll Hotel

 

 

I also felt the ground was unsteady:

 

But on to the show:

 

First out of the gate was TeamMate. They were decent and did a cover of Madonna's Causing A Commotion:

 

 

 

 

The guy in the band was dead ringer for Daniel Powter

Next up was the main attraction: Skylar Grey

Seeing her up close made me think of another pop star: Lykke Li

 

Skylar Grey:

 

 

 

Lykke Li:

 

 

 



Her set was good and showed how versatile she is, it is smart to be a singer/songwriter in biz. It was cool to hear the new album but also all of the other stuff she has done with/for Eminem and Rihanna.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After I went to a place called &Pizza. They didn't want you to take pictures of the menu which made no sense to me but if that is what must be done for a good pizza, I can follow the rules. This pizza was custom made and really good!!!

Album Review: Kelly Rowland- Talk A Good Game

You already know I went to go see Kelly on Memorial Day Weekend. So I am so happy to hear and review her new album.

 

The album gets off to a good start with Freak, blazing a trial for Kisses Down Low, Gone and Talk A Good Game. It heats up again with Dirty Laundry, Street Life and ends nicely with #1. Kelly always puts out good product and the game talked showed. My only beef is that I want more pop/club songs from her. Love Takes Over/Commander showed that she can do it all so I look forward to the future for more albums that always talk a good game & deliver.

 

 

 

Freak- 9/10

 

Kisses Down Low- 10/10

 

Gone -10/10

Talk a Good Game- 10/10

Down On Love- 9/10

Dirty Laundry- 10/10



You Changed- 9/10

I Remember- 8/10

Red Wine- 8/10

This Is Love- 8/10



Street Life- 10/10



Stand In Front Of Me- 7/10

Sky Walker- 8/10

Put Your Name On It- 8/10

#1- 9/10

Eatery Review: Elevation Burger

I decided to try this place while I was out in Tysons Corner (haven't been there in a while!) and also since I went to go see Superman for free (gets a 3 out of 5 so I would wait for DVD). I heard about this place from family and friends and thought I'd give it a try.

I decided to get the usual: Burgers & Fries. I will say that the burger felt like I was eating something that was guilt free and natural. You can tell a difference between this and other fast food. I also felt like the value for my $$$ was there. You get what you pay for.
