WEEKEND LUV

Model of the Week: Yardanos – Ethiopia – Elite Models New York

Hey Everyone!!!!
How was your week? Mine has actually been good so far! Far less stressful than last week…Thanks for the concern, yes I’m feeling better. You know how it is when so much is going on…sometimes you just need to take a deep breath and relax.
Soooo what are you up to this weekend?
I just bought this gold dress and I am seriously itching to wear it out…so we’ll see.
Next week is the week of lurveeee, its Val’s Week….lol…look at u thinking its just Val’s Day on the 14th….nope….u have to celebrate it for a full week….
So all the dudes, don’t wait till the 14th, spoil your ladies all week long…
Ladies, just sit back and relax
Lol…as if!
All these stingy dudes always claiming that they don’t ‘celebrate’ vals day….who asked them? What is important is that I ‘celebrate’ it…by receiving gifts!
All of them will just start disappearing like flies….a guy who has been talking to you for some months will suddenly disappear on a ‘business trip’ lol
Just like magic…isn’t it?
What am I doing?
Well, I am actually going on a weeklong romantic getaway to…
Ummm
Nope
Perhaps, I need to ‘rephrase’ that
I am actually going on a weeklong business trip to…
A valentine’s week peck for whoever accurately guesses my destination

Hits
Rooftop MCs feat Cobhams – Lagimo
I love this song! Let me say it again! I LOVE this song!
I have sooo much respect for Rooftop MCs and I cannot even begin to express the respect I have for Cobhams.
His talent is soooo immense. It’s untouchable!
LOL…U might think I am being a tad bit overly effusive but just listen out for Cobhams verse at the end of this song. The message is so strong.
Loves it!

MP – No Dull Yourself
This song is building momentum in the clubs at the moment.
From former 419 squad member, MP…
Hot track…Click HERE for the vid

Vid
Ikechukwu Ft. Don Jazzy & D’Banj – Wind Am Well
I love this song!!! I guess Ikechukwu has decided to go more commercial and I’m feeling the result. The video is cool as well….Its surprising to see Don Jazzy ‘rapping’ or is it talking on the track. D’Banj kills it as usual!
Shoutout to Naijagal cause I spotted the youtube upload first on her blog

Banky W – Ebute Metta
I’m feeling the vid, DJ Tee doing his thing as usual. I luv Banky W’s version of this song as well but why was Konga’s distracting me with his crazy moves in the video. They should have edited him out LOL…
Anyway, Banky’s new album Mr Capable is out soon. Y’all should go and pre-order your copies HERE. All pre-ordered copies will be personally autographed by Mr. W himself.

Question?
Please please please can someone please explain to me why guys and girls in LAGOS have started rocking the desert scarf in LAGOS…as in to the club, out for lunch, to the BEACH?!
I luv the look but in hot & humid Lagos? Well maybe I shouldnt be surprised since people rock winter boots in Lagos but still…
As my mum would say ‘haba mallam’ lol
That said, if you need a cheap vals day gift, you can buy one so ur luv can be looking uber trendy.
Only in Naij!
Another vals peck for whoever can give me an answer I can wrap my head around….!

That’s it!
Enjoy your weekend!!
Ciao
