Hip Hop Rings with Hip Hop Bling

October 25th, 2008 | By Safiyyah

Take a look at just about any rapper or singer and see if at least one finger isn’t iced out with a bling ring. The popularity of hip hop jewelry has taken off — it started with the large chains with the pendants and soon added along shiny iced out rings to go along with them. No hip hop gear is complete without a pinky ring or other ring for that matter, so you may be interested in adding one into your gear. Luckily, there are tons of different designs to choose from and many of them don’t only offer cubic zirconias, but emeralds of different colors a well. If you looking into buying a ring for someone else, you should try to coordinate with the jewelry that they already wear.

You can find different styled rings with either silver, tungsten, platinum or ceramic metals. Tungsten is known for being the toughest of them all because of its durability. So if the individual you’re buying it for swims a lot or is exposed to all different types of elements, you may want to consider purchasing a tungsten ring that will last them.

The types of rings you can choose from are numerous, so it will be more difficult to narrow down your options than to find them. If you want to keep up with the latest trends, check up on the celebrities to see what they’ve been wearing on their pinky finger. Or come up with your own style and find something unique — be a trendsetter.

Hip Hop Rappers Going Soft

October 18th, 2008 | By Safiyyah

There’s always been hype about the hip hop industry and how many of the rap artists that enter into the game come out hard and then go soft. One of the first rappers to do that was Ja-Rule. He rapped about women, money and cars with hardcore lyrics while rockin’ a bandana and hip hop jewelry; but a couple albums later, he had a love Jones. Many of the songs he released there after were love songs featuring singers like Lil’ Mo and Ashanti. A lot of his fans didn’t like the new Ja and he eventually fell off. Even other rappers took notice of the bad boy gone soft and started beef — remember when 50 Cents came out with that controversial hit?

Well, Ja Rule isn’t the only one that has “fallen off track”, but there’s a new buster in town. Kanye West is best known for his ill lyrics and old school approach, but his new album is definitely different than his hardcore self. Many fans are mad about his new R & B, techno-beat feel. You may have already heard a few of them, like “Love Lockdown” and “Coldest Winter”. Some congratulate his attempt to sample new waters while others are mad about another good rapper gone bad.

His new album has a more R & B sound and those that have heard it — well, some are a bit disappointed. There are a lot of heart broken songs on there, but it doesn’t really seem to be talking about a girl of interest. Some folks have speculated that he could be making this album for his late mother…who knows?
