As Smokey would say “not a got damn thang”.  When I saw H-Town and Jodeci in “Knocking Your Heels” I thought I was going to get “Knocking Boots” crossed with “Come and Talk to Me” as two super groups come together to form like some R&B Voltron.  Boy was I wrong…

Man I had such high [...]

I know Brock laid out (no homo) a clown with some heels, nipple huggerz and hot shawt shorts yesterday, but this sh*t is getting ridiculous:

Come on man.. like, seriously.  Is this where we are with manhood in America?  And yes, that is Sheree from Real Housewives of Atlanta right there with her crazy ass stylist/make [...]

Nothing says empowerment like $400,000 of airbrush, some silicone-saline polymer enforced titties sittin on high and some collagen lips busting out at the seams.  No this aint Lil Kim Back to the Future Edition, I’m talking about the movements of the ULTIMATE feminist, so strong that you can hear her bare arse roar, Aubrey O’Day!  [...]

Some cats talk about R. Kelly being the King of R&B.  Some think Bobby Brown has that crown.  They’re all wrong.  Nah, the real Kang of R&B is me, dasrite, Lake n Bake.  I’m the King of R&B.  And here is my new favorite R&B cut, McNuggets Lovin’ by Mickey D’s.

“Girl you got a 10 [...]

Michael Jackson just got sued, and just settled a wild lawsuit.  Didn’t pay his bills?  No.  Getting at those kids again?  Thank God, no.  No this time he got sued because he promised to lay down some tracks for a Bahraini Shiek that asked him to record an album for a private record label.  The [...]

Hey, I try not to be a pure hater, but some things just have to be called out.

Lol.  Come on now meng.  Now, we ALL know a few things about this new album cover:
1.  Those ARE NOT Whitney’s thighs
2.  That is NOT Whitney’s hair
3.  Those aren’t Whitney’s breasts
4.  We can’t be looking at Whitney’s arms
5.  [...]

I generally try to steer clear of the uplifting R&B and Hip Hop music.  I mean, if I wanted to be preached to or enlightened, I’d read a book, right?  With that said, this new John Legend album is pretty tight.  I went ahead and put it in the lab and I have to give [...]

No, it’s not that Nick Hogan unleashed his own version of Hulkamania and nearly killed another one of his friends, made him a paraplegic, talked about the victim, his former boy, like he wasn’t sh*t and then ended up going to jail behind it.  Nah, he’s already done all that.  Nope, the tragedy that I [...]

All I can say is wow.  I mean, Beyonce knows exactly what she’s doing when she does these videos and the HNIC (Head Nilla In Charge) approves of her message:

Now I can’t speak for the song itself, just sounds like some wildness, but that’s what I thought about the songs on her last album and [...]

Listen, if you’re destined to be an R&B star, an actress or even just a solid citizen, just go ahead and be proud of who you are, but don’t fuck with the Star Spangled Banner.  First of all, it’s not really an easy song to sing.  It starts low, goes high and just has a [...]

People want to hate on my message, but I know there’s a movement in this country.  Yes, all over this nation, millions of women are saying, “Yes We Can,” but I’m not talking about Barack Obama, oh no ma’am.  I’m talking about these thick white chicks that are showing themselves, day in and day out, [...]

Laurie Ann is back?

That’s the gotcha-gotcha.

Yo, I know I’m waaaaaaaay late on this song, but I just now put the video in the lab and I must say, it’s some of the finest work I’ve ever seen.
[dailymotion id=x5hygz]
First of all the concept that I stunt, ball or just get mine more than the average cat will never die. NEVER. [...]

Holy shit. The Pied Piper is an elusive smooth mufucka! I guess banging out and pissing on a 13 year old is cool in Chi Town!

Dude, let me ask those jurors a question. If that wasn’t R. Kelly and it wasn’t that babe, then who the fuck was it on that tape? I mean, come [...]

Dude, maybe it’s just me (it’s not) but has anyone noticed that Ashanti is looking FAN-TABULOUS lately? My word!!! I mean, it’s like every picture of her I see is yet another piece into a tapestry of “GOT DAMN“-ness. So you know I had to ask the question that’s on everyone’s mind: Is Ashanti UvT [...]

Mayne, I haven’t been this excited since I heard Duke landed Mason Plumlee. Since my little hiatus, I’ve had a number of readers hollering at me: “Lake, you a mufucka, where are the posts?” pretty much sums them up. But then my girl Jabz in DC hit me with this, “Did you hear about Rob [...]

I’ll admit it, I’m a Dru Hill fan. I know Sisqo is probably one of the worst cats ever to hit the music industry, but dude could sing.

The way I look at it, Dru Hill was just an extension of Jodeci once all that crack finally caught up with K-Ci.

Anyway, I was looking forward [...]

Dammit, how did I miss this one. I should have had this post up way back in January. It makes perfect sense for Kelly to “Throw some C’s on that b*tch” en route to a Playboy shoot.

I must say, that concave stomach piece looks about right…
Damn, I didn’t even know that Kelly was big time [...]

Can someone explain to me why any man would ever get a matching tattoo with a chick (we can just stop the analysis here), even worse, ON HIS NECK?! WTF? Sounds crazy right? Well that’s what they’re saying Chris Brown did with his “Boo” Rihanna. Incidentally, if you’re a man and [...]

Lord have mercy.

Andre 3000 is a genius.

I know I’m late to this, but this is just too fucking terrible NOT to post, late or not. What happened to our R&B icons?

Intern, unleash her!

Jeez, maybe we can get Justice to open up a case against Aretha… I caint think of it now, but she’s gotta be breaking some public ordinance [...]

I’d love to tell you that I hate the song and honestly, I’m not sure I like it yet, but given Usher’s track record, this joint will probably be a hit by mid February.

I can’t lie, that track is smooth and a much better title than the song idea my boy (no names) drunkenly spat [...]

…she is looking right in these shot I’ve seen of late.

That Halle Berry cut from back in the day is working very well (weave happy ladies take note). Looks like someone else has noticed our little Rihanna needs a second look trend.

Hmm, I wonder what Chris rock is seeing that’s got him so intrigued.

Bang. [...]

I was in a NYC cab with my boy K-Peso a few weeks ago on our way to a party and this song came on. It sounded familiar but I couldn’t place it, then I just started to get excited though I didn’t know why. I mean, it was something about that intro, [...]

I tend to agree with Weezy when he said:
“And you don’t wanna see my bad side, you would wanna be my ally, and I believe that I can fly, not like R. Kelly, he a damn lie.”
Bad Side, Lil Wayne & Juelz Santana
I mean, R. Kelly really is a muthafucka at this point. With [...]
