I Think We're Done Here and Jazmine Sullivan

Sunday, August 10, 2008


Maybe I took my cue from Cocoa Rican. Or maybe I was finally willing to read the writing that's been all over the walls for weeks. Either way, I finally admitted to myself that this -- whatever that was -- isn't working out for me and that I was ready to move on.

It was easy, really. I made my mind up yesterday after he completely ignored the plans we made for the morning. I tried calling -- three times. That's a lot for me. So, it all ended with a simple email which read: This isn't working for me. I think it's best we cut our losses. Thanks.

Hey, it's better than Carrie's Post-it.

No need to cry me a river though. I've got a Michigan grad doing graduate work at Howard and a recent SEC champion in my back pocket. I'll be alright.

On a lighter note, I cannot WAIT for Jazmine Sullivan's album to drop. That's her that's been singing in the background as you've been reading. Random aside: You didn't think this song was for ole dude, did you? Anyway, Jazmine goes off on this joint. She gives me Lauryn Hill vibes and I absolutely love Lauryn, so the Philly native is already in good with me. Get into how Jazmine makes you want to go to church at 2:40.

Alright for the SEC champion... I hope things work out... You are a great lil guy, cute too boot, and I hope you find a guy that will be on the up and up and value what you are as a person and lover...

Jasmin is good and she also gives me Lauryn Tees... but I gotta wait and hear the CD before I give her the ole scorpio seal of approval...

Corey - Thanks, Corey. That was nice of you and yeah...Jazzy is the bomb.

Primo - My philosophy is if shit ain't going right, why suffer? I'm too young for all that. Grab those shears and go to work.

Blaq - Yeah, fuck that poetry shit.

Al - Thanks for visiting and for the kind words. She goes OFF on 'I Need You Bad', too.

Don't you just love Jazmine? I've go so many of her songs that she's recorded - if you limewire her you'll get tons of stuff.
