Sighting: Douglas Hall at 2:30am, Morehouse College
I figure if you have to play the game, play it well. No need to complain about the rules, you knew what they were long before you tied your laces. It's mid term week and I had a change of heart towards my academics, I've put the fashion magazines down and picked up my sexy expensive school books-so many were still wrapped in plastic.
"Morehouse College was ranked #1 three times in a row (2002–2004) as the best school for African Americans for undergraduate study by Black Enterprise Magazine. The college was rated by The Wall Street Journal as #29 out of the top 50 "feeder schools" for elite graduate study in a 2004 study. According to a 2007 joint publication by Newsweek and Kaplan, Inc., Morehouse College is one of the "25 Hottest Schools in America"and the"hottest men's college".

From his first stop here in Atlanta to later this year in Hong Kong, Thanks For Nothing is just on some real fly $hit, good times, drinks, and beautiful people. More details about the party coming soon...

Money is anything that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts. The main uses of money are as a medium of exchange, a unit of account, and a store of value. Some authors explicitly require money to be a standard of deferred payment. The dominant form of money is currency.

Sighting: Brooke at the premiere of BET’s “Harlem Heights” premiere party at The Apollo Theatre last night.
So if you follow LeBoots you'll know that I been asking for a show like this and it finally came, I love BET's Harlem Heights. Im so glad they are showing young people on the go mode-who actually have jobs and careers. Think The City but Uptown. The women I adore, the fashions give me more ( it rhymed, let me have it ) and the gentlemen's hustle is something to follow. I sat glued to my dvr playing rewind with the remote, I pretty much love everything about the show and when Brooke tipped into that party she became my love.
What motivates you to get out of bed and be on your grind each day? I see so many young(er) people making all the money nowadays, like big money, I’m not talking allowance. It used to be that you worked a lifetime to reach your peak of success, and that it was acceptable to be 20-something, 30-something still not having made it. Now, you have 17-year old producers, 20-something big business owners, 30-something moguls, who are millionaires! So to wake up in the morning at 27 years old, I feel like I’m on the older side of the equation, and I have to play catch up…
I digs it. I fu*ks wit her. For more on Brooke and the show, click here
He prefers being a producer than an artist. He thinks the sexiest woman musician in Alicia Keys. He writes his own songs. He did modeling for Louis Vuitton in 2006. He often wears clothes from his own clothing line called BBC, which stands for Billionare Boys Club. He is usually seen wearing trucker hats. He attended Princess Anne High School in Virginia Beach.

So I was up at 4 am on Saturday night, I watched 30 minutes of Kathy talking about this Express 101 Cooker. I wanted it because I could make up to 101 recipes, even re-creating my leftovers. So before I bought it I wanted to hear some reviews:
"I purchased this thinking it would save some time in the morning for breakfast. I used it twice and everything sticks and the spatula they give to you is very flimsy and doesn't work very well. I was very dissappointed." -Barbara Smith from Lincoln CA on 08/20/08
"I found was certain sizes of food will not fit into the pockets. I tried making a quesadilla and it just didn't work out too well. If you want truly, all over/even cooking with your food, it has to be a "half moon" shape. With my second GT Express 101, the teflon coating didn't flake onto my food until the 3rd time I cooked with it. The first and second occasions that I cooked with my second product, I was happy and thought it was quite convenient. But then while cooking my salmon and tuna steak on the 3rd try, I was highly disappointed and demanded a refund back. That was a hassle!!! What a crock, huh? So for all of you who are just as curious as I was, I would not give a second thought to the GT Express 101. If you have to, cook with regular pots and pans and use the George Forman Grill (which I highly recommend!!!)"-Andrea from Cary, NC on 04/05/08
"The teflon started coming off my GT xpress the second time I used this product. I followed the cleaning instructions but that did not matter. I cannot use this product any longer, everything sticks. Customer service wanted $14.95 for shipping a new cooker to me. For what, to eat the teflon again? Sadly I bought a few units to give for presents when I bought my unit. Now I am too embarrassed to ask if the recipients like it. I am sure they ate teflon too. Shipping charges are outrageous. I give this product 2 thumbs down!!" -Sandee Smith from Vernon, CT on 12/06/07
Guess I can keep my credit card and appetite in my wallet.

I think it's very important to surround yourself with a positive team of people. Fresh ideas are always grown. It's such an organic feeling when you've found your inner circle. Who do you influence?
She likes BBC. I like Lanvin.
We're back at it again. Another year a harder hustle. 2 different coast. New York-our future home. Atlanta-our playground. Sham & I work together because we are so different. She's has the swagg and I have the in your face attitude. It's the perfect mix. She's simple. Im complex. We never try too hard. All this comes natural.
She likes Pharrell. I like Kanye.
Sham & I met almost 2 years ago. From that moment I knew we would be partners in this game. I remember our first meeting, it was at a photoshoot for LateBoots. I walked in the room and said "hi Sham it's nice to finally meet you", then we just went to work. It was so natural.
She's Edie. Im Andy.
Since we are a duo so many people say we remind them of Edie Sedgwick & Andy Warhol. She's the girl everybody likes. Im the guy that everybody loves to hate. Im cocky, arrogant, an asshole at times yet she is the georgia peach. She really isn't. I just get blamed for everything because Im the obvious bad guy. She is worse than me.
She's Brooklyn. Im Harlem.
Summer '08 we both interned in New York. She did Complex and I was at GIANT Magazine. I stayed in Harlem and she was in Brooklyn. She hated coming to Harlem and I hated going all the way out to BK. For our move to NYC we're gonna share an apartment, we're tossing a coin to determine where we'll stay.
She likes Michael. I like Prince.
We always argue who's the best performer out of the two. I believe Prince was for obvious reasons. He had swagg, what man do you know can get away with wearing heels and make-up? If you ask me Michael did all of that work to his face so he could look like Prince.
She likes Nike. I like YSL.
I once tried to buy a pair of Nike sneakers but they were to boyish for me. Trade is what you call it. Nike called up Sham and she went to New York to make her very own sneaker. It was dope. I would wear it. But instead I purchased some YSL sneakers. I like YSL.
She likes Marc Jacobs. I like Genevieve Jones.
I first saw Jones on style.com, I was like who is this skinny black girl tipping around New York. She's so chic. When Sham & I were in New York this past summer she actually met Jones at an event. I was sick because I should've been the one in the picture.
