Happy Friday Fashion Citizens ! Today I want to bless you with a new video from one of our favorite artists, Alison Carney. Alison’s smooth vocal stylings and impeccable style meld together to bring us what is sure to be a hit. I have to say that Alison’s style is one of the dopest out right now, she’s not married to trends or what an artist is supposed to wear,…
Last week, I was doing my spot on Elite Morning Mix on WEDC radio and the guest on that show was Yella Jesus aka Uncle Freeky. Normally, when there is a guest in studio I try to engage them during my segment simply because it’s always cool to get fresh ideas about fashion from a varied audience. We were talking about men’s hygiene, specifically keeping a clean face and using…
Carrie Underwood’s new release, “Blown Away” has been playing on my iPod since it released and one stand out for me has been the song Two Black Cadillacs. The song is intriguing because it starts off with two women, a wife and a mistress approaching a cemetery and meeting for the first time. You’d think at such a tragic event, the mistress would try and stay low key but you’d be…
The video was shot and directed by Matthew Henderson and features choreography by Francine Ott. Memory is another one of my favorites from the album because sometimes memories are the best part of a relationship. You can choose to relive all the good and loving moments and nix the bad. Before we get to the video, here’s what Nicholas had to say to Fashion Citizens about his new album, “Promises” Promises…
A few months ago, I was invited by Nicholas to check out his show at Ben’s Next Door in DC. I had heard his previous releases but a live show, in my opinion, gives you a good chance to hear what an artist can really do. I got a front row table and backed by a live band who are members of the soulful group, Black Alley, Nicholas blew the…
I’ve got another jam for my fashion citizen ladies from Brianna Perry. I heard her when I was jammin’ this weekend riding around on a track from SWV’s new release “I Missed Us” and the track is called Do Ya. Brianna rode the beat like a seasoned pro, so I had to find out more about this girl. As I was searching I found her mixtape Face Off and the…
I had to put this video up on the site from one of the dopest lyricists I know, PRO’Verb. I met this guy a lil while back and I have to say he’s indeed a grinder and very much on point with his skills on the mic. This song is one of my favorites from him and the video is sure to be a classic. I wish PRO’Verb much success…
Today I’d like to bring to you the sounds of Breakfast in Bed by the young homie, Cortez Mars. Cortez hit me up via Twitter and sent me the link to his mixtape. Now, I don’t normally check out music because as you know, this is a fashion blog and I try to keep everything fashion related. I will say this about Cortez Mars, his looks and the way…
