I just saw this posted on yahoo when I logged in to check my email. Apparently Will Smith's daughter Willow is the next Rihanna. This girl's got some talent! (That is, I guess, if she's for real singing. You never know these days...) And a lot more creative direction than Justin Bieber, thank God. We don't need another one of those running around. According to Yahoo, Willow is shooting a video for the song later this month in L.A.
Oh, by the way, she's 9. And how does that make you feel about yourself?
I know this is a bit old but I finally just saw the video for it. If you know me at all you know I'm a die hard Metric fan.
The shirt and dress Emily Haines wears in the video also kind of reminded me of the dress in the post below. Love it! If anyone can find me a shirt like that.... I will give you a cookie :)
I’m a bit behind on my blogging due to a general lack of internet access unless I’m in the vicinity of a Starbucks, but I’ll do my best to catch up.
This past weekend a group of friends took me to see a couple bands play at this place called The Drunken Unicorn. (The name itself was cool enough for me to be interested, needless to say) It’s a little hole in the wall underground concert/bar venue, the stage being about one and a half feet off the ground and the whole place is maybe 15 ft wide, max. Very intimate and undergroundy, and thankfully the Hipsterness was kept to a minimum. The two bands we saw were Today the Sun Tomorrow the Moon and Stokeswood. Both definitely worth checking out. I think by the end of the night we all had girl crushes on TSTM’s lead singer and her cute bangs. They actually reminded me a lot of Forget Cassettes from Nashville and Stokeswood.. well the pajama pants with carefully placed stars sewn on them should speak for themselves.
Conveniently directly attached to The Drunken Unicorn is a dance club owned by the same people called MJQ’s. Obviously by the point in the night we migrate over there, I’m loving this place even more. The DJ was awesome. Lots of electronic and R&B type stuff. Breakdancers everywhere. Huge bar – service never being a problem. Migates that dance with you that have been on So You Think You Can Dance. Bunnies painted on the walls… Heaven. Actually the whole atmosphere reminded me a lot of Alchemize, that used to be in Cincinnati if anyone else can remember that far back (I remember being 16 sneaking into that place before it closed down in Over the Rhine. I was a brave little sole back then).
So if you’re in the Atlanta area looking for a local favorite for a fun night on the town, this is definitely the place to be.
