WORLD VIOLATION.... AGAIN

Their press conference is confirmed and set for October 6, 2008 in Germany to talk about their forthcoming 2009 World Tour.

Their album isn't out for several more months but it seems as if tours are announced earlier than the album is formally announced. Funny how that is the complete opposite for some acts nowadays (Mariah and Janet). The truth is that Mode can sell out stadiums around the world if they have a hit record or not - and their labels have faith in them.

I plan on going to Europe next summer to see Mode in London, Spain, Paris and Berlin! I can't wait to see Mode in concert and hear the new material - you never know what you're going to get with Mode, their musical direction seems to always go different ways... in a good way!

There are so many profound emotions that life gives us. While many will go an entire lifetime without experiencing true love - lately I feel that's the road I am traveling down, one of the most amazing feelings is that of hurt and despair. A great friend, who I still know and respect highly to this day, once said that it's essential that we all cry and experience feelings of sadness for that makes the feeling of happiness that much sweeter. While those were not her exact words I think you get the gist of what she was getting at.

Last weekend on one of my many drives to Long Beach to visit my good friend Danny, I was listening to Mariah Carey's new song "I Wish You Well."

If you haven't heard this song make sure you listen to it below, it's definitely one of the standout songs on her new album E=MC2. The song brought tears to my eyes because it reminded me of the hurt and rejection I have felt in my life. The song, while not necessarily talking about rejection, has some poignant lyrics that are pretty universal to connect with.

AMERICAN IDOL. WHAT DID YOU THINK?

Am I the only one that thought this performance was just mediocre? I've only seen American Idol a few times this season and I am not addicted... then again I am addicted to Big Brother. Go Figure!!!

BYE BYE

My brother just came into my room and told me about the new Mariah Carey song that hit the radio today and I have to say its an amazing ballad. Imagine One Sweet Day mixed with Tupac's "Life Goes On." Listen to the song and let me know what you think... oh yah I forgot, no one comments, you all just read and email me!

Speaking of Tupac and his song "Life Goes On," that was one of my favorite songs in high school, more specifically senior year 1996. Tupac's final album while he was alive "All Eyez On Me" was released that year and every song on the two CD album was flawless and bangin' - definitely a must have album for every music fan!! The song I mention above is for anyone who has lost a friend because of gang violence or any senseless act of violence.

THINKS LIKE THIS MAKE ME SMILE...

My friend just sent me this. This is one more reason why I'm proud to call Francois my friend... he's so crazy and unpredictable - you never know what he's going to do next. His personality is crazy but very few people see this side of him. Francois at first can be very quiet but when you get to know him he is even more honest than I am (ask me about the car ride with him and my brother when my brother asks him if he likes Mariah Carey and San Francisco... such a funny story) and a funny person. FRANCOIS YOUR F**KING CRAZY.... KEEP IT UP!!!!
