Too Hood 4 Hollywood

This is a Blog designed for those that live a Hood lifestyle with Hollywood taste. This is for that young professional or the corner boy, this is for the '9 to 5'er' or the '24hr's no days off' type. This Blog is a well needed, fresh outlook on todays society. It presents answers to those daily questions and conversations you have with your co-workers, and those life long arguments that barber shops and hair salons never seem to conclude. Presented by a DC mind with a world wide approach.

Pro verb-Response to Jay Z's Deshawn Stevenson Diss

Now I battled against myself all day long whether or not to put this song up! I know I know it should have been a no brainer to post it!! Forgive me!!

He brought the heat on this track and needs to be heard around the country!! D Steve you need to throw this boy a stack, a chain, or something!! He held you down homie!! Check it out.

Lil Wayne ft. Young Jeezy- Lollipop (remix)

Jay Z-Blow the Whistle Freestyle

Deshawn Stevenson of the Washington Wizards made those ill-advised statements about Lebron James and he got more than Lebron a little hype!! Jay got the boost to step in the booth on Friday and have the song in D.C. in time to play it in LOVE nightclub for the Cavs vs. Wizards after party hosted by Lebron James!! I'm still confused at how a DJ here in DC would play a diss song about a Washington Wizard!! Lebron must have threw him a little ink! They say the Wizards are boycotting LOVE and Park now behind this. Well I guess they'll be boycotting Too Hood 4 Hollywood too because here you go!! Sorry D Steve, but I fucks with Jay and Bron and you was out of pocket calling Bron overrated!!!
Jay killing them with the Crooks n Castles by the way!! (Crooks Lambo Jacket / Castellano Mosley Tribes x Crooks Sunglasses / Crooks High Society Tee)

D&G Mesh Hightops

I originally posted these Dolce & Gabbana sneaks back in back in Feb but in case you forgot that I am trying to put you on to game here is another shot. This picture looks great but still does this shoe no justice!! In person this may honestly be my favorite shoe of the Spring/Summer.

Now this is a remix that deserves a video!! I must admit though I am still not a believer that Ursher will even come close to that Confessions money this go around!!

Wet Wicked Wednesday's @ the Tropic's

For those with no plans tonight, come on down to the Tropic's tonight and see Big Keith & The Blood Pressure Band at the Tropic's located at 12th and J Streets NW. For the working crowd the part starts around 7, just in time for happy hour. The band is scheduled to play until the Lakers game comes on. Big Keith can then be seen at the Skylark enjoying the game, but The Blood Pressure Band should still be playing some of Sugar Bear's unknown hits until midnight.

TOP 10 MUST HAVES FOR 2008 – PART II

Ok so we realized that some people really don't want to spend $800 on a pair of shoes or an outfit...granted. So what we've decided to do is showcase a variety of looks for our Top 10 Must Haves for 2008. The first edition was a PLATINUM LEVEL, so Part II will consist of two levels: GOLD & SILVER. There is also a section for our Plus Size Divas!

Every Woman has the right to explore there INNER-FASHIONABILITY...and no we did not make that word up!

We hope that our viewers will be able to take a piece of each look and incorporate them into a lifestyle. The last thing a woman wants to do is break the bank on a trend to hear someone say next year "Gladiator Who?"

Today, there are so many department stores that have stepped there collections up. Runway designers are using their creative juices to bring "Cheap but Chic" to stores at affordable prices. Kohls has Vera Wang, Target has Isaac Mizrahi, Proenza Schouler, Jovavich-Hawk, and H&M had Maddona, Karl Lagerfeld, Victor & Rolf, and the list goes on. You could easily pair their designs with that expensive bag or exquisite shoes.

Like my girl Mary J. said, "WORK THAT"!!!
