Ghostwriting
Man I wish I have been blogging for years. But since I've just started. We have 2 go back 2 past rants. & now classic Journee' Itching. Talking to my bestest friend LiL' "O" yesterday it got me rethinking about Ghostwriting. Needless 2 say we all know Bow Wow has had ghostwriters for years.
Really. Now I will be the 1st to say I haven't done any research to see who wrote this song. But so far my thoughts are as follows:
1. Was that Bow Wow's attempt @ writing? Is this what the greatest is made of?
2. C/O LiL "O" Was it a joke and guess what the joke was on him!
3. Will that nigga say anything someone tells him?
I Got Questions!
4. Do he have any friends. Because I promise you if Ozy came @ me like "Yo J, you gotta hear this.... Its fucking ill!"
Which brings me to this chick... Miss Keri Baby as she calls her self.
Side note If your aren't up on one of my fav blogs Absolute Brook you need 2 get up on it. "Real Bitch Island" I'm trying 2 told you! She keeps it real. & Keeps me rolling.
When it comes to this chick what I think about is. Damn! Did she make that much money writing for others in the past that to the point she feels she can burn those bridges. LOL .Really chick. I think she bold as FuCK! I mean right now she has one hit. Which doesn't set her forever status in the game. Hell right now it can go left or right. & she poppin shit like that. WOOOW . She may have wanted to wait until the 2nd cd 2 start poppin shit. Not 1st single! And she was writing for some big names too. You really think people are going to want to fuck w/ you when out here talking reck-less. Really. I think she should have stayed in her lane on this one. What Chapelle tell ya. "When keeping it real goes wrong!" LOL Look @ Gullie.. (Sp) The kat who came out talking all that shit about Wayne. Saying he write this and write that. Funny how Wayne became his hottest after he was out the crew. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I must laugh.
But when it comes 2 Miss. Keri what really pisses me off is like Brook said how you going to back paddle after you say the shit. O no I wasn't talking about Ciara or Beyonce. But on the track she say check the credits find my name or some shit to that degree. So how in the hell is she talking about just some chicks that tried 2 hold her down? Random girls my ass. I think she noticed her paper wasn't as long as she thought it was and thought she should pull up. If you going to pop off pop off. Don't start thinking after the fact. Damage is done. & You know Miss. Beyonka has a ego. She not about to let Keri get away with that! I bet that's one chick she not going to be writing for no more lol.
And I'm sorry Keri don't dance better then Ciara. Just is....
These new age Diva's I tell ya.
{Side note}Why 4 he thinks yes "Y 4" he thinks he is one of the greatest of all times..... I'm still trying 2 figure that one out. Your not the greatest because T.I. has ghostwrote for you. That makes T.I. one of the greatest.
Anywho thinking about this.... Made me think back to his song he had out with Omarion Let Me Hold Y0u. Now I can't front Omarion should have been on that track alone. Because I was loving his part. Then here comes Bow Wow. Nothing out of his norm. Blah flow. Until he hit me with this gem. Down down, around
Atlanta, Atlanta fo-found
Everybody know now
What I'm tryin to do
I say, Down down, around
Atlanta, Atlanta fo-found
I'm just tryin to get you to
Down down, around
Atlanta, Atlanta fo-found

I Got Questions!
4. Do he have any friends. Because I promise you if Ozy came @ me like "Yo J, you gotta hear this.... Its fucking ill!"
Side Note: That's why I love Ozy so much! He never hypes up his own shit. He lets me hear the track and then tell him my thoughts. His shit is real! It needs no hype. Listen for yourself. download your free copy of Exciting Times on his blog www.OzyReigns.net Great music for free.... What a treat.... Back 2 the regularly scheduled rant.
& hit me with a nursery-rhyme! Really? I'm a real friend I would have shut that thing down. Joke he he ha ha now record over that.... now. NoT now but Rite is Rite now! Keep that on the low low.Which brings me to this chick... Miss Keri Baby as she calls her self.
Side note If your aren't up on one of my fav blogs Absolute Brook you need 2 get up on it. "Real Bitch Island" I'm trying 2 told you! She keeps it real. & Keeps me rolling.
But Brook also touched on this topic. But from a wee different point of view. You have 2 read it!

P.J.A. = Public Journee' Announcement
Yes I think its time for a P.J.A. (Hair & Make Up done by Era of Glam Inc. glaminc@gmail.com)
Now a little background on what I do. I'm a personal promoter in the indie hip hop world. So I meet and work with a lot of different people. On a lot of different projects. & I'm far from being a chick stuck in some type of box when it comes to music. Good music is good music rather it be dance, hood, crunk, R&B, Neo-Soul, lyrical hip hop, pop, rock... Whatever {Feel free to test my knowledge} But I have a major problem when it comes to stuff like this......: My homeboy is in the music world. He often tosses me business because hell I am the best at what I do. I appreciate the look out fully! But the other day my ultimate pet peeve accrued. He refereed this I guess group to my company.
Is all I can really say. I have never heard of these Kats before and I guess this is why they need help on the promotions side of things. But the guy calls me and I PROMISE I thought he was speaking some 3rd world language! All I could understand was
People take this music business as a game. Its really a career! Its a real business. You have to practice You have to take pride. Don't just think you can get up on a stage and stand there spitting off a million and two 16s. Sorry it don't work like that. And I more importantly I don't work like that! If you don't take pride in yourself and your work. Don't ring my bell. Text my phone. Or try and give me a cd when I'm out. Because I don't operate like that. My team is ever ellite. I deal with people who are focused and who take pride in mastering their craft. Whatever that may be.
Moral of my blog today is.... Don't come to me 1/2 assin! Your wasting your time.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
Is all I can really say. I have never heard of these Kats before and I guess this is why they need help on the promotions side of things. But the guy calls me and I PROMISE I thought he was speaking some 3rd world language! All I could understand was
"A Mayne................................. yeah manye .............................. you know mayne"
And it took a hell of a lot to even figure out the manye. I Honestly couldn't understand this man or in his words mayne. I don't know who taught this man how to speak but I'm pretty sure Mushmouth had a lot to do with it. I guess he caught on that me and him wasn't communicating to the point and put on his interrupter! Who wasn't that much better. But I got the point. But I'm thinking these two non-talking motherfunkers are calling themselves rappers. If you can't talk how in the hell are you going to rap? I honestly don't even want to hear that mess. Yes I'm calling it mess because the man couldn't hold a conversation. So how the fuck is he going to hold a crowds attention.People take this music business as a game. Its really a career! Its a real business. You have to practice You have to take pride.

And please for those who have done this... Stop busting out in 15 min freestyles when I'm on a date or out with my people. Just give me your card and keep it moving. I'm not puffy I can't do shit with your freestyle. Save it for 106 and Park!

Scarlet Takes More Than a Tumble
OK I wasn't blogging when this greatness came out! But O believe this never gets old to me! Everytime I see it, its like the 1st time. & seems to get funnier as time passes.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I've heard so many rumors about this. I heard her mom posted it. Had that been my mom. She would be doing a bid in the old folks home. Period. Some say her boyfriend posted this. Really O really. Can we say break up! And hell if she did it herself. WOOOOOW she's a brave chick. because trust know and believe this shit right here. Would have never got out had it been Empress Journee'. Trust I'm far from a balanced chick. I fall often. (Nothing as great as this right here, but I have been known to do a tuck & roll) But who ever put this greatness up online I just want to thank them for letting me see Scarlet and her Tumble.... Nope call it what it is... Her busting her ASS!
My mom hasn't seen this greatness yet. I'm going to tape her watching it. It should be some foolishness by itself.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Classic!
But in true Journee' Fashion!
I GOT QUESTIONS!
1. What the hell was she singing???? Please let me know. And why did this song cause her to not only take off her house shoes and put on her wedges! & get up on the table!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! I thought the table was going to break. But ooooooooo What a treat!!!!But in true Journee' Fashion!

Journee' on Movies!
Confessions of a Shopaholic
OK I was in no rush to see this movie. But I got a kick out of a bill collector stalking people to that degree! I can't picture that happening to people I know! That is so unrealistic because someone would end up hurt! What the hell was he really going when he found her.... Repo someones weave? Come to work with them everyday? Then snatch the check & run!!!! I got questions. You got to see this movie if only to see the bill stalker! And think about who you owe and what would happen if they did that to you. Let Fanny come stalking me if they want to! Get their feelings hurt for real.

Carolina's on My Mind!
OK IBITCH now....
So almost EVERY time I have a musical conversation with someone that's not from the wonderful state of NC. The same thing comes up. I say NC is a wonderful place for music. We have some of the hottest rappers doing it! But nooooooooooo They want to go and throw Petey Pablo in my face. Like they had a Carolina rap vote and this son-bitch won! FUCK NO! Empress Journee' stands on the following statement!
I said it. And it seems like since then the world don't trust us with rappers no more! LoL Like nooooooooooooo we gave you guys a shot you gave us shit! Your chance is up! FuCk that! I don't care if I have to inform the world one by fucking one that Carolina's is about to take over musically. And bring back some adult friendly rap! Then that's what will be done. There is nothing wrong with club tracks... But if I said it once I will say it a million more times who wants to be in the club all day. I need some o cool out stuff. Hell this rant has motivated me to put up a Carolina video!
Duh shit I support true hip hop underground! So how about you rock on this one!!!!! This is from my big homies "The Others"! Watch Listen & Love!
And don't sleep NC also brought you Ant. Ham.! Little Brother Jodeci! Forget what they are going through now. The music they made has been a classic since the day they dropped! You know you babies are still being made to that joint!
The world is going to respect my state damnit! Discover North Carolina!

People Who Could Have Been Left Off That Song!
Man I was on my normal Sunday walk in the park. Listening to my new Sony Walkman ... {Yes I put the Empress Journee' Stamp on this product! I love it. Hate the head phones but upgrading sometime this week to some skulls. Yes I admit it damnit I'm so spoiled!} But back to the point. I was having a good walk when one of my favorite songs came on! Bobby Valentino's Anonymous featuring Timberland! The song is dope. "I wanna know I wanna know...." Then here comes Timberland's big goofy ass. & I'm at a lost for words. Why for he had to come mess up a perfectly good song? Kathyann or Mary-Lee. Just shut up! I always turn the song off when his part comes on. I just don't understand it. Like damn did they not push that part throug a test group. Tim really needs to stick to making beats and shutting the hell up! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBEv_YN2w6A
This made me start thinking... Who else could have been left off that song? LOL. And I know I'm about to catch hell for this next one. But I honestly hated that LiL Wayne Ms. Officer track. But again I loved Bobby V on that track. I just wanted him to be on there lol.
Lil Wayne - Ms. Officer Insane Mixaken Rmx from Insane Mixaken Music on Vimeo. So yes I'm saying LiL Way could have been left off that track.
DJ Unk could have been left off the Walk it out remix! I said it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJ8Q7pPdH-o He was a waste of a 16! And the last on my list for today has to be Bow wow. Although I don't care for him much at all. But he really could have been left off of the track he did with Omarion . Let me hold you! Omarion was holding it down... Then here comes bow wow's none rapping ass fucking up the whole track! I have a list of people who could have shut that track down. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlmIAoyBhHg But nooooooooooooooooooooooooo his wack ass just had to mess up the flow. I can't even talk about this no more i'm getting mad.

Making The Band
Really I think Q from making the band is a fucking *BITCH*! After watching a few making the bands he just has a huge amount of BITCH in him. I don't get it. He really needs to put on his big boy draws! And walk this shit out. I honestly don't think he is made for this business. I never understood how he made it over that sexy ass DeAngelo Redman is beyond me.... I really was @ a lost for words when he didn't make it. What the hell. & now we are stuck with this bitching ass Q. Mark my words he will be Day 26's down fall!!!!! He weak. They might as well weed out the damn weak now before he drags them down any more.
Errrrrrrrrrrrrr
But I have to give much love to Mike in Day 26 holding it down for the Carolina's! He reps us very well! Thank Ya Love! Stay sexy!
(Yes I used pink to highlight the level of bitch i think Q is.)

Journee's adventures in Music! Mattic Ed.
I told you guys I would be putting up different facts and blurs few videos about my interesting friends. & its Mattics turn! I had to catch him while he was in the states because he spends most of his time in France. (How hot is that! Yes there are brown people in France!) Muscly he's a major force in the over seas market.

type venues. & can't get no love in the states. That's the problem with the US. The states dick ride. Go off of whatever gimmick is hot @ that time or moment. Instead of respecting the music. Listening to its content. Nothing is wrong with having dance songs. But when that's all it is. That's a problem. But that's another blog all together. This is about Mattic. He is honestly one of the nicest and smoothest kat's I've ever met! He has a sway to him that you can't ignore. He really don't need too many fancy words from the likes of me.

Credit Checks 4 Jobs
I think this is the dumbest shit ever! Credit Checks to get a fucking job! In real life! Talk about holding poor people down! I just don't understand how can someone get a job to get out of debut.... If they can't get a job because they in debut? PLEASE break this down for me. I mean its out of order for places like TJ Maxx & Target to do fucking credit checks! Really just because your in debut don't mean:
{Now if the brown & clear person both have bad credit & same qualifications that's a different story!} I just don't think that your qualifications should be the only thing that's looked at when applying for a job! Period. Can this person do the job.....
They want to make sure people stay down.... Talk about the big bullshit.
A. You can't count.
B. Your going to become a thief to get out of debut.
I honestly hope B-Rock kill this practice because this is straight BS. Nope I'm not fussin because my credit is screwed to hell. I'm good. I think my credit score is high enough to get me a job (aint that some shit). But I still call out wrong doings. This shit right here! WRONG! I don't even see it as a brown or clear thing. Because i know its clear people who have bad credit.B. Your going to become a thief to get out of debut.

NO HOMO
Who thought of this tarded ass shit? And more importantly who the fuck would co-sign it? I blame Beyonce. {Nope she didn't do anything to bring me to this conclusion. But hell she has been the cause of my rants in so many blogs. Its just kind of natural for me to blame her. But o you can't front it sounds like something she would start. With the matching NO HOMO dance. "If ya not gay then put no homo on it.... o o o o o o o o o"My Sorry.} But in real life what makes people think by putting "No Homo" on something just turns them straight. I will never understand the logic behind this statement. Like a man can come in and say "I just sucked 5 dicks. But no homo tho." "Damn that nikka got some juicy lips. No Homo." NO people NO! That's very much Homo! Wearing jeans that show your dick print. HOMO! Men running around with pearls and halter tops. HOMO. Stop with the No Homo. It don't make it straight. It's not like No Homo has healing powers. It don't cure you of gay. If you are homo just be the best homo you can be. Yes be Fierce darling! I think i'm going to start a counter statement to be said in the case someone says "No Homo" The new thing is going to be "Yes Homo" I figure if "No Homo" is a cure for these in closet homo thoughts. Then Yes Homo will be the cure for people who don't want to acknowledge what they really are! You better come out now while Kanye's turning the world gay. And blame it on the alcohol! Just stop with the no homo.
Now my homeboy Will Hatcher has found the man who made up "No Homo" and has scored a exclusive interview with him. Check it out.

If I were a boy....
Here we go again. Journee' is bitching with a cause.....
I have to 1st jump on Ciara. Because she started this foolishness and Beyonce just dick road it. When this track 1st came out almost every female I know was like "YEAH YEAH I feel her Yeah she kicking the truth." I don't know if I was listening to the same song or what. Because I saw where she was going. But in the end it just made me feel like she needed to work on her pimp hand more. There was NOTHING.... I repeat NOTHING. In this song that I don't do, haven't done or couldn't do if i wanted to. Gender has nothing to do with it.
Hell I'm a single women living by myself Yeah I take my trash out. I have security codes on everything because hell I know some nosy ass people. I don't know what is in this song that she or any women couldn't do. It's not like she said "Take a piss standing up like him...."
I'm just trying to help some women look between the lines. There is nothing in this song you couldn't do if you aint want to. Its time women start working out their pimp hand. For real. I am really concerned about the future of women who feed into this foolishness.
Then to make matters worse. Here come Beyonka's follow the leader ass with If I were a Boy. Saying the same shit Ciara just said. The issue was lacking to start. She did nothing to help it out. Again Journee' says if you want to act like that then do it. Hell I love being a female. I control my emotions I control when I take out the trash. I'm good. LOL. I was so happy when R. Kelly jumped on the Beyonce remix and just broke out. So bloody hard. "BUT YOUR NOT A BOY!!!!!!!!!!" Cause your not. Get over it.... Or do reverse drag. If so many women want to be men so bad. Why don't you go to the sex shop get a strap on. & Walk down the street grabbing your rubber nuts. In the mean time SHUT THE FUCK UP! Because you can do everything in those songs. Hell look @ Sam from Sex in the City! These tracks aren't the truth! Listen to the lyrics. Think about what's being said. And if I'm wrong please correct.

Journee' Sucks Right Now
I know I know I have been mad slack on my blog. But I've been off doing what I love to do. Its hard being a Indie Rap promoter but it's also the greatest at the same time. I'm just getting back from my trip to ATL. The Ozy Reigns release party was bloody ILL! I've been listening to the his Exciting Times album non-stop. Its honestly the future of hip hop. In like 20 something tracks. He put hip hop on his back. & holds it up proudly. I'm so proud of him. Its crazy! I will go into details a little later. I'm really trying to recoop. My life is changing in so many great ways. I'm just trying to take it all in. Get on track. It's a lot of work to be done in a very small amount of time. But all is working out for the best.
In the words of Little Brother "I still hustle just like you. I still struggle just like you. Just so happen that "Journee" doing what I love to do"

Journee' on Pastor Troy
Now I wont pretend like I know this man personally and I don't want you to think I'm hating. But I really don't like this cat's musics. I never understood his point of view. So if someone out there is a fan. And can get down with what this cat is saying. Please drop the knowledge on me. Because I surely think he be on some 100% high talk. I mean who would really come up with this whole vice versa concept. This track came out when I was high school. & we did have the people who bust out and try and break down the knowledge of the song. (Who just so happen to be high.) Or the one's who just wanted it to knock @ the club so they could say YEAH!!!!!!!!
But the song its self just seems sinful to even listen to.
"Picture everything you thought was good was really bad."
Well hell anyone with a Ex can picture that.
I don't think this guy is deep at all. More or less full of shit and got away with it.
There are those moments where people just try and beyond "Overly" deep!
i know a few songs where this has happen. & they lost me all together. i am soooo mad @ myself for not remembering this song name or the artist.. I'm slipping
Around late 90s early 2000s that damn song worked my nerves!
LOL
when I do recall it i will prob post it. Over all he was being just too damn deep.
Around 7 dangling participles too damn much!
Which I think has happen in this case.
Honestly it don't even seem right thinking no shit like this.

[Pastor Troy - talking]
Yeah (yeah)
This song is called Goddamn, Vica Versa
(I'm doin' my best to save my people)
It's like, (The people & I will rely in God)
Picture everything that you thought was good, was really bad
Everything bad, was really good
(What if Heaven was on Earth nigga)
The whole world, vica versa
(Good is bad)
Vica versa (Bad is good)
(Dear Lord am I the only one?)
This shit here, Goddamn, gon'
Go'n get you a fat blunt of that 'dro
Smoke that shit
(It's all vica versa)
Look up in the air nigga
(We rich nigga)
(This is what we doin', it's vica versa)
I know all these real niggas gone feel this shit
Vica Versa, Pastor Troy
(Vica Versa)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
What if Heaven was Hell and vica versa
If I told you go to Hell, would you tell I cursed ya?
I reimbursed ya with the truth so you know my fate
And pray I die, I'm that nigga that they love to hate
I wanna make you use yo mind, God has sent a sign
And when you listen to these rhymes, nigga take your time
Again I ask, Heaven was hell and vica versa
Would you start doin' evil in order to nurture--the spirit man?
Do you understand that there's a war?
It's ragin' on and the devil got some ammo too
Don't get me wrong, but I put my trust off in the Lord
It's too corrupt, know that God gon' help me blow 'em up
I give a fuck, Heaven was hell and vica versa, I have no fear
I done witnessed too much Hell right here, lend me your ear
Recall the beer we had to po'
For all our niggaz hit the Devil with the .44
Payback nigga
My liquor keep my from tryin' to enter, battle alone
And to deal with all this wickedness, I smoke a zone
Know I'm grown, but I'm still a baby
It's vica versa so I guess I'll beg Satan to save me
God I'm confused, the fuse of all these motherfuckers, makin' me sick
{*Virgin Mary never fucked nobody, but she suck dick*}
With a clique of nasty concubines, and vice-a versa
So she'll probably do the whole nine, that nasty ho
I don't know where I'ma go this Christmas, it's Satan's birth
I'ma try to smoke a pound of weed, and ease the Earth
While Jesus equiped with angels, the Devil's equiped with fire
For God so love the world that he blessed the thug with rocks
Won't stop until they feel me
Protect me Devil, think the Lord is tryin' to kill me
It's vica versa
Heaven is below, while this dozier keep me high
To see the Lord almighty nigga, I'm ready to die
My reply for any questions asked, "The Devil made me do it"
Who's the Devil may I ask?, It's so polluted
Up-rooted from all this stupid shit
See me cremated, my adaption to the climate
So glad I made it
Elated that they gon' go to Heaven
But do they know Heaven may not be th place to go
Again I ask, Heaven was Hell and vica versa
The devil's in me and I'll be damned if I'm gon let god hurt ya
Follow me...
[Peter the Disciple]
If it was vica versa, I'd be and angel, 'cause I'm a devil
A Down South Georgia Rebel, a whole 'nother fuckin' level
Remenisin' on all the good and the bad that I did
Bustin' caps and splittin' wigs
And servin' nicks and talkin' shit
This is vica versa no fuckin' commercial
Heaven or Hell, where do we go?
When we die, eternal fire or the street of gold
Only God knows, vica versa
Yeah (yeah)
