If you were wondering why I haven’t blogged in awhile, it’s because I’ve been on my major grizzly. I did however, find time get my hair did at the ah-mazing Hair Rules Salon with head stylist Dickey. Is that Sowmya or Sowmya Kardashian? Owww…

…a puffy leopard print jacket is what’s hot in these streets? Sigh. At least my boo cut his ~~fur~~ hair. “The Motto” video with Lil’ Wayne and Tyga.

Live review: Common serves up fresh nostalgia on ‘The Dreamer/The Believer’

Sowmya K — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 18:10:00 +0000

I hobbled (sans boot) to rapper Common’s album preview for The Dreamer/The Believer (in stores 12/20) last night. Although I’ve heard the record in total already, it’s always a different experience hearing the music with the artist himself (not to mention the open bar-guzzling groupies in attendance). Overall, a solid and definitely a contender for one of the year’s best rap albums. Peep my full review at the Village Voice and take a looksie at Com performing “Raw” acapella. As a new iPhone owner, I didn’t realize the whole shooting in portrait vs. landscape thing. Oopsies.

I didn’t hobble over to Frank Ocean’s first NYC show last night but the good folks at The Life Files did. Check out Mr. Ocean with a sassy bandana performing “Thinking About You”. Once this lame boot is off, I’ll see you good sir.

Drake covers ‘Complex’ but hides his gorgeousness

Drizzy graces the new issue of Complex in this blue-hued cover. Not sure why he’s hiding the best part about him…his face. Prime real estate should be touted not hidden behind a blue cup! Ugh, I have SO MUCH to teach you…

Drake and Rihanna’s emo-optimistic “Take Care”

Sowmya K — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 21:47:32 +0000

My faaaaaaaaaaaavorite song from Drake’s new album Take Care is undoubtedly “Take Care” with Rihanna. The former flames join together to talk love and regrets (not to mention toxic friends). Real talk NY.

Good music: @FrankOcean -”Girlfriend’s Best Friend”

Frankie Ocean has a few choice words for sucky boyfriends everywhere. It has a great late 90s R&B feel to it.
I need a no-tags version of this now!
