The Guide To Honey Boo Boo

By Melia Rayner in Culture / / 3938 views

Child stars certainly have come a long way from Shirley Temple. The newest ‘star’ on the pop cultural scene is Honey Boo Boo (not to be confused with Honey Badger) and she hits you like a tonne of redneck, ghetto-speaking, energy juice sluggin’ bricks. Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson is a 7 year old who rose to fame on TLCs’ Toddlers & Tiaras, stealing the show for her belly-grabbing, ‘go-go juice&#... View Now

Director To Watch: Austin Peters

By Jenna Hawkins in Film / / 1701 views

... Most recently, Peters worked with L.A. long locked, sister babe trio, Haim. Combining the whimsy of folk with r’n'b, the hyped band’s signature sound which could be described as Stevie Nicks meets a supergroup of TLC, Brandy & Monica and Aaliyah and similarly inventive video for “Forever” was the director’s most challenging, yet most rewarding piece of film to this date. “When we shot the video, it was the...

Holograms Are Real! Well, Kind Of…

By Sally Tabart in Uncategorized / 357 views

So we watched this video like 4 times and still have no idea what the shit the smart science man is saying. The only piece of solid information we can ascertain is that holograms are becoming A REAL LIFE THING. Well, maybe not real life, but pretty bloody close. With the world still basking in the glory that was Tupac 2.0 at Coachella this year (Mariah Carey’s hologram must be feeling pretty pissed off right now), Microsoft have recently reveale... View Now

Still, girl looks FIERCE (in a Tyra Banks way of course) walking through that desert. “No Scrubs” – TLC Before Beyonce had total control of the GIRL LOVE / SELF LOVE movement, TLC’s song is still a classic, not just because of the lady-loving, self-respecting message the song reminds us, but because instead of the sexy bab...

...ranquilized bear falling out of a tree in Colorado is actually the best thing you’re going to see this week, and maybe next week as well. [Colorado Daily] In other really fucked up music news, the surviving members of TLC are planning on touring the tragically deceased Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes as a hologram, and we feel like they might have forgotten their own advice, and have taken to chasing waterfalls. In sum, don’t. Cha... View Now

...t Superbass made her a legit pop star. It was exciting to see her singing/rapping crossover succeed. Women in the game have been singing in addition to tight rapping for decades now, from Salt ‘N’ Pepa to Missy to TLC, and I think it serves to both soften and then, contrarily, legitimize them. Nicki’s goal was always to sing; Weezy and Young Money signed her after hearing her version of Dead Wrong, and that’s just straigh... View Now

...hetti for snares. Would you be so kind as to give us a little background to Be Gone? What or who is the song about? It’s basically about being there for someone through thick and thin and then, when you’re in need of a bit of TLC yourself, their first reaction is to say that you’re being selfish and not being there for them. I’ve seen this happen to many people over the years so I guess you could say that it’s a bit about me, a bit about them. It’s... View Now
