So my boys are on the G-R-I-N-D. I gotta respect the hustle dem ninja's is determined to 'make it.' The entertainment game has changed for real. Ain't nobody making money of album sales so it's no longer the measuring stick for success. Now day's er'body some type of celebrity in they own little world. It's grind and longevity that'll be the true test. Who gonna be able to do a sellout a club venue and keep a steady fan base is gonna mean success.
Back to Day26. This week they released a new video album "Forever in Your Eyes" on iTunes and a new video for the single, "So Good." The video sucks. It's just a tad boring. The vixen's really brought it down for me. I guess good talent is hard to find. Maybe some baby oil and some commitment to the roles from the girls would have worked. They all wanna be actresses, right? Check the videos below.
To make this truly a fab year for Day 26 it would be great if they could get on a tour with Ne-Yo. They are gonna do a couple of dates with him, but full blown tour would be H-O-T.

The Hotness
This Month I'm Reading
The size and stability of the American middle class were once the envy of the world. But changes unleashed in the 1960s pitted Americans against one another politically in new and destructive ways. These battles continued to rage from that day to now, while everyone has fallen behind economically except the wealthy. Right-wing culture warriors blamed the decline on the moral shortcomings of "other" Americans—black people, feminists, gays, immigrants, union members—to court a fearful white working- and middle-class base with ever more bitter "us vs. them" politics. Liberals tried, but mostly failed, to make the case that we're all in this together.
In What's the Matter with White People?, popular Salon columnist Joan Walsh argues that the biggest divide in America today is not about party or ideology, but about two competing narratives for why everything has fallen apart since the 1970s. One side sees an America that has spent the last forty years bankrupting the country providing benefits and advantages to the underachieving, the immoral, and the undeserving, no matter the cost to Middle America. The other sees an America that has spent the last forty years bankrupting the country providing benefits and advantages to the very rich, while allowing a measure of cultural progress for the different and the downtrodden. It matters which side is right, and how the other side got things so wrong.
Walsh connects the dots of American decline through trends that began in the 1970s and continue today—including the demise of unions, the stagnation of middle-class wages, the extension of the right's "Southern Strategy" throughout the country, the victory of Reagan Republicanism, the increase in income inequality, and the drop in economic mobility.
Citing her extended family as a case in point, Walsh shows how liberals unwittingly collaborated in the "us vs. them" narrative, rather than developing an inspiring, persuasive vision of a more fair, united America. She also explores how the GOP's renewed culture war now scapegoats even segments of its white base, as it blames the troubles of working-class whites on their own moral failings rather than on an unfair economy.
What's the Matter with White People? is essential reading as the country struggles through political polarization and racial change to invent the next America in the years to come.

Too cute!
Random Gibberish
I didn't vote for Barack because he's black. I voted for him because Michelle's black.
Ugly people should be quiet.
Gauchos don't look good on anyone.
Short girls + big boobs = gross
"Don't love me off a cliff." - Me
"F*ck what you heard. You KNOW what I said." - Me again
I'm still laughing at Chris Rocks "Black people vs. N******" routine.
Beyonce should keep her mouth shut.
"Tooken" is not a word!
A real "EBP" would know the difference between "then" and "than."
When you talk badly about a person who hasn't done anything to you, you are confessing you are are a hater.
If all you talk about is money, cash, or hoes then you should have money, cash or hoes.
If you were a broke arse, unemployed lazy arse negro before Obama, then you will be a broke arse, unemployed negro aftter Obama.
