Hope Finds A Way


$6.6 million raised for kids with cancer :) :) :) this weekend at Penn State's Dance Marathon. Being a dancer in THON was definitely the most amazing weekend of my life. It's so rewarding to be a part of something so much bigger than yourself. Truly unforgettable. No sitting, no standing for 46 hours. I'd like to say I ate the 46 hours like it was a piece of fried chicken. Would I do it again? Yes, please.

"f*ck mypace, cause I need my space"

This girl is nice. Me and L stay talkin about facebook/myspace on our radio show, so this post is so necessary.

"We can't deal wit the face to face, so we let technology replace the space that people are supposed to fill. Let's face it, we are internally afraid of whats real and we've forgotten that physical contact is more important than our numbers of contacts."

whew. You can hear me and Laura talk more about this tonight. 9-11p.m. @ www.thelion.fm/listen.

Flashing Lights

This is wild.... it's 1/3 of the video for everyone's favorite Graduation track, Flashing Lights. I need to see the final result... and all you blockheads that wanted to see Ye make it rain or sip Henny...sorry. This is art.

The Whole World



Yo, I know everyone forgot about this song until just now. This is for the haters. Cuz the whole, world, loves it when you sing the blues. Why? I think it's human nature to talk about other people. Not to the extent of hater level...but u feel me. I don't necessarily hate the hater either, because they are probably dealing wit somethin that makes them hate so much..I'm not sure if I have hard core haters...but if I do (most likely)...this ones dedicated to you... ;)

Thanks England!

I'm sittin here listenin to music and realizing how England has been feedin us some real niceee artists lately. Thanks England. A bunch of them make my long extensive list of favorite artists; Corinne Bailey Rae, Lily Allen, Amy Winehouse, Estelle. All of their albums, with the exception of Estelle, are on point like pencil tips. I'm 99.9% sure Estelle's album will be as well which comes out later this month.


Not many of you are probably on the mean shoe game Lily Allen...so I'm about to put you on. You're welcome.

Buisness-man

Speaking of HOV, advertising company Interpublic Group started a new agency w/ Jay and Steve Stoute called Translation Advertising. The agency will target multicultural consumers. I'm geeked. Can I get a contact so I can send my resume ASAP?! He's definitely a buisness-man, better yet a BUISNESS, MANNN.

Your favorite radio ladies are taking over

Hey All!


KatyK had the great idea for a blog for her and I to have just one more forum to speak our minds and yall know how much we love doing that.
Look forward to updates from us on the regular on all things music, and basically anything we damn feel like talking about: controversial topics, good music we are listening to, good music you should be listening to, upcoming events etc. With that same quality and freshness you expect. Of course you can speak your mind here too.

We'll be your homepage within 3 visits without a doubt

And of course keep tuning in every Monday night for Ladies Night at the Lion 90.7FM.

Everyone Nose

Other than STEELERS training camp and The Glow in the Dark Tour...I'm also anxiously awaiting N.E.R.D.'s third album N.3.R.D. coming out this Spring. Click the link below to hear a track (Everyone Nose) off the album or browse through our cute little bear's tracks to hear it. The Chad/Pharrell/Shay combo is my fav-or-ite. In the word's of Skateboard P, "It's a Red Bull with growth hormones in it."
