What’s going on Hip-Hop heads and my avid basketball fans? Before you indulge yourself in your recorded TV shows from the night before and the overwhelming amount of email you’ve received today while doing your boss's dirty work for 8 plus hours, I would like to welcome you to The Skinny Truth. Yes, another blog site, but not JUST another blog site, it’s the blog where politically correct opinions are frowned upon like a lady asking her best friend if she can date her ex while she mourns from the break-up. Here I’ll talk about, (cough) excuse me, we’ll discuss constantly on what’s new and interesting in the Hip Hop and Basketball culture exactly how we see it and why. You thought Charles Barkley was bad when it came to giving his honest opinion, wait until you start getting The Skinny Truths on what's really going on. So, if you wear your feelings on your sleeve and are afraid of written words, then you’re probably sitting at the wrong social table at the new school of educated hilarious trash talk. Don’t worry though, I’m a great person at heart, whatever that means?
So, just to get the juices flowing we’ll touch on rapper Jay-Z and singer Beyonce’s newborn baby girl. First, let me take a second and say congratulations on a new healthy child. Well, now that that is out of the way (good guy at heart), let’s get straight to the business. WHAT KIND OF NAME IS “BLUE IVY”? Who does this? Why would you do that? Yes, the name is very unique but unique isn’t always good. Let me first let you know that Jay Z is one of my all time favorite artists so you won’t think I’m bias about the situation. But great or not, that name isn’t sitting to well with me no matter how hard or what angle you come from to try and justify it. If one of us less fortunate middle class people dared to name one of our children something even similar to that, we’d be pretty much setting our child up for years of job application failure. Unless, they were applying to be some sort of plant/ ice cream/ yoga studio spokes person or manager, if that’s the case then this name fits perfect. Yes I know she will probably never have to work a traditional nine to five in her life, but that isn’t the point and never will be. Anyways, what do you think of the name and why?
Well first id like to say you have done a great job with your blog and I will be stopping by often to check out The Skinny Truth. Jay and Beyonce, I have to agree with you this name is very unique but id never name my child anything close to it. I mean I guess when you have as much money as they do you can name your child anything and still be respected but Blue Ivy? This child may be blessed with rich parents but I see a curse for nick names in the future.
ReplyDeleteYeah Jay thought he had it bad when he caught the Joe Camel flack, wait until the names come flying out for his child. She'll probably be a nice looking individual but that still won't stop the critics from doing what they do best. Talk trash and flex their opinionated muscle.
ReplyDeleteThis blog seem like it will be very indulging as time goes on and you touch various topics. I think that it’s extremely different that you would want to touch on subject that doesn't favor the politically correct ideal of a situation. For example ("like a lady asking her best friend if she can date her ex while she mourns from the break-up.") when I read this in your blog I immediately starting laughing reason being is that the reality of the situation is a lot people over the world deals with this scenario or have been in this predicament. Although the public only feels the need to exemplify the politically correct answer when half of them know they would like to say there relationship is over and I like that person.
ReplyDeleteThanks, stay posted for more up and coming post where you can flex your opinion muscle.
DeleteFirst off, congrats to them for a successful birth and delivery. Now second off, third off, and fourth off, what kind of name is Blue Ivy? When I first seen that, my mind instantly went to a state of confusion. I dont even think there is a reason valid enough to name your child that, but they did so oh well. At least its simple and easy to say unlike Kaqatoyiesha!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL, Who ever child has that name is probably the only kid in kindergarten that won't be able to successfully spell their name without sounding it out first until about the 3rd grade. It'll be hard out here for that child in that 3rd grade class trying to spell her name on her multiplication test in time to complete her test in window of time giving. I say she should just take her test and leave her name off of the paper and pray all the rest of the students put their name on the paper so the process of elimination will show that her paper is hers.
