I got my feet on the ground and I don't go to sleep to dream...

Fiona Apple is back! And her return to the mic wouldn't be complete unless something was a little odd.


Her first album since Extraordinary Machine in 2005,  The Idler Wheel is wiser than the Driver of the Screw, and Whipping Cords will serve you more than Ropes will ever do will drop in June. That should give me just enough time to write out all 23 words on my calendar.


Now that the album release is official, Apple is wasting no time sharing the new songs with her fans. She is scheduled to perform at SXSW on March 15 and kicks off her new tour on March 19 in Chicago.

This isn't the first time Apple has taken a wordy approach to titling an album. The title of her 1999 album, most commonly known as When The Pawn ..., was an entire 90-word poem that Apple herself composed.

This girl is a wack job but I love her.

Go DJ!

OK, fine. The dog is probably not doing scratching on its own, but sometimes it's nice to just watch a video without actually analyzing every little thing. And its entertaining to watch a dog scratch something other than his ears.

One thing is for sure: this Frenchie has his Dog DJ swagg down. So nonchalant. He probably doesn't take requests.

Enjoy!

Ball So Nard

Kanye West and Jay-Z have released the video for "Niggas In Paris"

The video -- which West directed -- starts with footage of the duo's Los Angeles performance, a decision that was perhaps made to honor the number of times they rapped the song live (10 consecutive times at the show in question).

From there, the video becomes a mix of special effects (primarily kaleidoscopic) and concert footage.

I might have a seizure.

Pink - it was love at first sight!






Pink, it's not even a question
Pink, on the lips of your lover
'Cause pink is the love you discover
Pink, as the bing on your cherry
Pink, 'cause you are so very
Pink, it's the color of passion
'Cause today it just goes with the fashion

Swag ain't somethin you can wear on your neck

young money cash money billionaires



Cash Money head honcho Birdman has always been recognized for spending frivolously. The entrepreneur drops millions on teams he favors.

The New York Giants and New England Patriots will face off on Feb. 5 and Birdman is betting on the $5 million on the Pats!

According to Baby's tweet, New England Patriots football player BenJarvus Green-Ellis is his "nephew."

Last year, the rapper bet $2 million that the Miami Heat would win the NBA Championships against the Dallas Mavericks. He unfortunately lost the money after the Heat players failed to lead their team to victory. He also put up $1 million during last year's Super Bowl game.

Ain't Nothin Like the Love of My Life

Admittedly, I am "late to the party," but it has been brought to my attention that Love & Hip Hop is a highly entertaining television program.

I definitely need to set my DVR to record the season finale - Monday at 8 on VH1

Here are some highlights from this season:

just plain awesome

President Obama sang an Al Green song last night at the Apollo Theater...that's in New York. Where awesome things happen.

“Ahhhhm ... so in love with you,” he sang. Then he grinned and said, “Those guys didn’t think I would do it.” He did not specify who “those guys” were.

Mitt Romney just can't compete with that #notbadmrpresident
