I know what you just did, you went.. whoaa.. Paddy, wtf? You are putting a picture of a book by a rapper, Queen Latifah no less, on your blog? Why? I like to wander, remember? And this is part of that whole a little bit of everything, and then some.
Let me just say this, I think Queen Latifah is cool. She has a book out and I am grabbing a copy. Last night I was watching her interview on Larry King Live and she rocked it. How cool is she? If you google queen, she is at number three, behind Victoria and Elizabeth, and that is pretty neato.
This woman can sing, you ever listen to The Dana Owens Album where she sings soul and jazz?? NO? Well go take a listen, I can wait.. no really, go listen, she can sing! Okay I took a listen and I still dig her voice. I am not big on rap so that part of her career is meh to me, but by all accounts she is considered pretty sharp there as well.
She was awesome in Chicago! Oh right.. you did not know I like musicals? or musical theater? Well I do, I like that kind of stuff a lot. Chicago is great and she rocked that part. She has done a lot of movies and TV and she always delivers.
But what is cool, why I really like her? She is genuine. I like that about people, movie star, rapper, what ever a person may do, I like straight forward people. She seems that way. No doubt she has talent in a wide variety of creative endeavors and she has had some success and still has her feet on the ground.
I am a fan of just not a movie star, or singer, or writer, but a person who is.. a real person. If you are not a fan, you should take a close look, you may just think I am not so crazy after all..
and remember.. when your good to Mama, she'll be good to you..
"This woman can sing" Sting astonished me when he put out his jazz album. Latifah? Nah that woman can sing no matter what she's singing. When I look at all the bubblegum princesses they make me wonder what they'd sound like without the FX. I'd stop and listen to Latifa if she was a nobody singing over the dishes.
