"It’s a new era in fashion - there are no rules. It’s all about the individual and personal style, wearing high-end, low-end, classic labels, and up-and-coming designers all together." — Alexander McQueen

Happy 96th Rolihlahla

It's was a tragic to see you leave and it was even more unfortunate that you aren't here with us as we celebrate your 96th because sir; man would it have been one hell of a party
You fought so valiantly and lived a well-spent life that few would only dream of
Though you're at rest now and I wish for more than anything for you to look down on us and watch us make the influence that you left another reality
Enjoy the presence of your Creator, Mr Rolihlahla
Live well, rest well and keep on smiling

Host - Chris Rock

Tbh I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed this Bet Award special because the winners deserved it and for Lionel Richie to win the Lifetime Achievement Award show how much appreciation was at the event and it was hosted by the ever so funny, Chris Rock.

Two legends!!

It was a huge deal watching Chris Breezy make his comeback after being in jail but dude must have loved hearing his song 'Loyal' was hitting up the charts real high. Breezy never ceases to disappoint and I'm so excited for what he has in store for us in the next upcoming months and you guys should be too! 

Breezy in his zone

He truly belongs up there on that stage! True talent!

Usher, Jhené Aiko, John Legend, Pharrell, August Alsina and Lil Wayne also killed their performances. I absolutely loved them! Especially newcomer Alsina, he's bound to be a future household name because his music is so dope! Oh and DAMN, MISSY ELLIOT was there! Greatest moment ever!!! 

Jhené Aiko and John Legend 

Jennifer Hudson attracted attention with her sexiness!

Pharrell and Missy Elliot - legends assembling

Can't forget my females as I have huge crushes on them... so bravo to Nicki and Iggy; you are true artists that are breaking it in for the new and upcoming female artists. There's nothing but love for you both <3 

Looking fine as always

Tupac lookalike...?

So if you know me you'll know how much I love my Pac...! Now when I heard and saw the Tupac lookalike... think about how much I freaked out and socially networked friends. It became trending topic on twitter and people started on how Pac never died and shit but imma tell you what I know in 2 simple steps

It ain't Tupac

1. No, I haven't seen his ashes but if we are told that someone has passed then it should be true because it would be sickening for someone to make a joke out of death
2. Tupac, himself quoted "I don't have no fear of death. My only fear is coming back reincarnated." 

Fashion!!!

I have to! I have to! I JUST have to! Now the Bet Awards are freaking big because the fashion is meant to be on point like with every award show and though I'm not that interested in fashion; this has got to be my favourite event and here were some of my favourite outfits.

Ginuwine, Tank, Snoop Dogg and Tyrese Gibson in the same room...

Daniel Sturridge (Liverpool player and future hubby), DeSean Jackson and Boris Kodjoe present Best Pop Artist

Can we please take a moment for these men able because not only do they know how to dress but they are SOOOOOOO FINE!!!!

August Alsina - Chip Off The Old Block

So if you guys watched the BET awards which I do to write about on Sunday but anyway did you guys happen to catch August Alsina who won Best Collab for his song "I Luv This Shit" featuring Trinidad Jame$ and also for Best New Artist. Now so much happened at the BET awards as always do but this one was a night to remember so look out for my post on Sunday on the BET awards '14. 

Again I'm getting distracted but August is a great artist with so much promise in the future because he's bringing back the good old RnB music and he's totally killing the fashion industry with his sense of style. So keep an eye out for him and also purchase his new album Testimony because it's a BANGERRRR!!!! and here are some of my favourite songs of his and hopefully they'll become some of your favourite too... Hustle Hard 

Benediction - August Alsina ft Rick Ross

I Luv This Shit - August Alsina ft Trinidad Jame$

Make It Home - August Alsina ft Yeezy
