Emily King feat. Lupe Fiasco – Walk In My Shoes (Remix)
Call me predictable, but I love her voice and the groove of this song does something for me. When the track drops, I can’t help but nod my head. Emily King’s voice has this sultry maturity to it that just gives me slight chills. The 21-year-old J Records recording artist releases her debut album today, East Side Story. ESS is an album which has been described as the experiences driven from her young life in the cultural melting pot that is the Manhattan Lower East Side. Emily’s music is a fusion of R&B, funk, jazz, pop and soul, and her voice just sounds immaculate over each of the album’s well-crafted songs.
A lot of hip-hop wives and girlfriends tolerate infidelity from their famous spouses but this young lady takes tolerance to a whole new level.
I don’t know if her tolerance is her philosophy or comes from her upbringing or a combination of both.
Last year, we were informed that she accepts her husband’s constant cheating and she tells female friends, ‘ignore what your man does, because men have different needs compared to women. A woman is content with one man throughout her life span but a man needs to be with several different women throughout his span to feel complete and I accept that.” “Keep your family together, no matter what he does.”
Sadly, this same woman helped her straying spouse pick out names for the two children he has outside their marriage.
If that’s not enough, rumors are circulating that she critiques sex tapes he has with other women, giving him tips on how to become a better lover to these women.
He loves the situation of having his cake and eating it too. His buddies, jokingly, want to clone his wife.
No wonder, he’s often quoted as saying, “I WILL NEVER LEAVE MY WIFE.”

Alicia Keys is finally back on the music scene with her new single, “No One.” Some of you may have heard the snippet earlier this week, but here is the full version. I want to give a big thanx to Natacha over at alicia-zone.net for providing us with the song. Make sure you check out her site.
In related news, Alicia went on TRL last week and said this about the song:
“The single is called ‘No One” and I’m LOVING IT!!! I hope it’s a bit unexpected and something that completely surrounds you, engulfs you and sweeps you away. I hope it makes you feel good and strong and passionate and makes you scream the words at the top of your lungs.”
Her 3rd studio album, As I Am will be in stores on November 13th and let’s just say after hearing this song, I am very excited! What’s your take, Hot or Not?

Venus & Serena Williams put their game faces on at Opening Night of the US Open, held at the Arthur Ashe Stadium last night. There was a special guest performance by Aretha Franklin and a pre-game ceremony honoring black women in history including Althea Gibson, the first African-American woman to be a competitor on a world tennis tour. Also honored was the first black female astronaut Dr. Mae Jemison, Olympic medalists Debi Thomas, Jackie Joyner Kersee and more.
The Williams sisters went on to win their matches and are advancing to the next round. I recommend that everyone read these great articles at yahoo.com & newsday.com about the event. Black Star Power at its finest!
