The streets are talking...in a high pitch squeal...about SATC 2!! The fashion, the scenes and the downright fabulousity are already making me hyperventilate. I for one can't wait...and I'm pretty sure everyone out there can add this foursome to their list of vices (I've watched SATC 28 times and counting...lol). The countdown to May 2010 officially begins!
Do we understand kanye? No. Will we ever? Probably not. But G and I sure do, and forever will, LOVE us some Kanye! And you have to admit, its the cockiness, boldness and the fact that he's so damn unpredictable that makes him...HIM. I mean, who would've known that he was debuting a film based on...I actually have no clue. lol. Regardless, we support him and his flyness always.
Last week I had a presentation in one of my classes where we had to analyze an argument being presented through any media outlet. Naturally, I remembered Nick Knight and his short film Untitled that debuted last year. After numerous presentations about pseudoscience, ethnocentrism, and Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize, it was finally my turn. I ranted about the genius that is Nick Knight and his controversial blasting of the fashion industry for allowing blantant racism to exist. I explained why he used Naomi Campbell and the significance of her wearing two dresses by Rodarte, one black and one white. With much enthusiasm and excitement, I played the masterpiece. After 2 minutes and 12 seconds of silence...I looked to the stunned and confused faces of my classmates... and then it dawned on me...fashion, and its politics, are DEFINITELY not understood by all.
I absolutely adore The Noisettes and heard about them while I lived in London last year. They are an indie rock band from London comprising singer and bassist Shingai Shoniwa, guitarist Dan Smith, and drummer Jamie Morrison. I love Shingai's sense of style and the way her confidence radiates throughout the entire video. Add to your favorites, post on facebook, tweet about it....just do whatever it is that you do....because they are IT.
