I'm Back Tricks

It really has been a hot minute since I've last updated and Kizz has not been doing a very good job of posting (Bad Minnelli) but at last I have returned! I've actually been on a little vacay in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Visited the fam and and whatnot, was rejuvenated, but now it's back to the grind. Internship and work all picks up to full speed on Monday. But I see that there are some things that need reporting on in my city. But first let me just say that Calgary was cool for the most part except for the lack of people of different ethnicities. A bunch of white people who have no problem showing their distaste for blacks. As frustrating as it was for my fam, I found it oddly comical. *sidenote: I had to bad up a receptionist at the doctor's office just to get some service...fun times* This sad, sad store was the only thing close to an "urban" store I encountered :



But like I was saying, about Toronto, I'm just going to touch on a few topics that are fresh in my memory.

  • I missed Fashion Week, but I hear it was F.A.B.O.
  • There are some people in the city who are getting some attention, and that attention is getting to their heads. They think because some people know their name/face they are TO celebs...try again
  • Woo HAS FINALLY OPENED!!!!! I swear this restaraunt has been the running joke b/w me and Kizz. It is a buffet/lounge (I think) at Yonge/Dundas (Toronto's time square) that has been "opening soon" FOREVER. But I cam back and it's finally open, so I will most def be going there and reporting back tres soon.
  • There is no snow in here. Can the choir say AMEN!? I purchased a new pair of shades today and it made my skin tingle with excitement

Anywhoo. Tis all for now. I shall be back soon. Until then. Adios Amigos!

Windsor Sports Weekend

Windsor Sports weekend just passed and I had everybody and they momma ask me why I wasn't there. I hope this post provides some insight (written by my homie MR. Wonder) I had to re post this!

For all our readers that aren't from Toronto, Windsor or Detroit here's just a little background on the Windsor Sports Weekend...

WSW is an annual event that usually takes place in February or March at the University of Windsor and some venues around Detroit. Windsor is about 4 hours away from Toronto and 10 min's away from Detroit. The Event has roots in sporting events that take place during that weekend and over the years it morphed into something slightly similar to Urban Beach week in Miami, Black College Reunion in Daytona Beach or Spring Bling/Spring Break in Florida for mostly college students and underage teens with a good fake ID.


Windsor Sports Weekend! I went in the 90's and early 2000... Some people I went with, went in 2009. Problem? Yes!

10 Signs Windsor Sports Weekend is not for you.

10. Your student card was issued in 19**.

9. You avoided your landlord to spend your rent in WSW.

8. Born in the 70's, with no possible way of making a dollar while you're there.

7. If you left WSW and went to "Jamaica Me Crazy" in Detroit.. (Shot out Dee, Marcel, Sweet Lady, and 90's border jumping team)

6. If you don't have a secure ride there and back, DON'T GO!

5. You stayed with family who's diapers you used to change.

4. You told your family you were going and they laugh and say "AGAIN?"

3. Your husband/wife doesn't know you went.

2. You left Sunday to get your kids to daycare Monday.

1. Gas was .45 cents a litre the first time you went.

Chrisette Michele "Epiphany" video

Finally a full version of this video has been leaked! I've been bumping this song on the pod for a min. This woman is truly talented, and I really hope this time around with her new album she gets more shine. Toronto's own Drake has a cameo as Chrisette's love interest.
