Uber Chronicles 1

Welcome to the TSB Uber Chronicles. Recently, with the children all moved out I have taken up a hobby in driving Uber. The Uber Chrinicles will take you along with me on my nightly journey. 

  1. Nana: The first ride tonight was an elderly women. Very sweet and friendly. She asked if we could go pick up her son around the corner as she was taking him out for his birthday. Upon her sons arrival to the car she says to him, “Ooh, you got started already I smell.” He looks to me and ask for a Mint!!!! Sir! Ain’t no mint covering that Booze. For the rest of the ride they talked about the relation of the Civil Rights movement and its relation to the Trump Presudency. Ughhhhhhhhhhh. Gag Me!
  2. The Drunks: Ride two was a couple in full blast party mode. They sat in back side by side and decided to give me the blues. She played Siri and gave me the directions as she claimed to know a shorter way. As she did that he decided to tell me about his drinking festivities and ask me if I was sober! Sir! What do you think as I sit here smelling your drunken monkey lookin ass? They were cool but weird. I’m just glad the ride was quick. 
  3. The Scholar: He comes to the car sighing. He had worked all day and just got out of class. He has 2 weeks left for his MBA and is on a mission. He just got Married a few months ago and now his wife is due in April with their first child. Let me just say, sir this is not the moment of Getting to know you. Please keep your key aspects for Life
  4. Brothers: These 2 were my Fav for the night. The older brother came to visit the little brother for the weekend. They went to a soul food restaurant for dinner and were ready to go back to the house. On their way home they get a text to go to the bar. They decide to go home because older brother had 7% and younger brother had 21%. Now, No shade to the Battery Life Brothers, however, I need them to start bringing their chargers out when they hit the city. 
  5. The last ride for my day went to, The Odd Couple. These two are coming from a Fund Raiser in the ugliest outfits ever. During their ride they discuss how none of the paintings sold and they were surprised as they were all beautiful. She said that the few paintings that did sell were under $450. At this point, it was time for her to cut the shytt as I noticed she didn’t buy and paintings either. The she says to him, “I’m going to need your help taking this hair down. This is a very intricate……….. Bush Where???? If she don’t go on with that basic ass school teacher bun. She betta just say she wanna get nasty and have him pull her hair. 

This was my night. Which ride was your favorite?????

Kid Ink tells ALL Iggy Azalea, Azealia Banks Feud and Details on his Hot New Album, “Full Speed” via @TrueSlamBook #TSB

Rapper Kid Ink weighed in on Iggy Azalea’s legitimacy as a rap and hip hop artist, “For me, as soon as I see numbers, I respect numbers over everything. You can see this many records that is what it is.” He later explained, “At the same time like she’s getting help from these other artists and is still being developed as an artist, I feel like. Whereas a lot of other artists who are doing so much on their own who are still in that same status and caliber that are upset that they don’t have that chance because they don’t have that same team or background.” Kid Ink sounded off on the ongoing war of words between Azealia Banks and Iggy Azalea. He shared his opinion on Azealia Banks saying, “Personally I haven’t been able to ever see her point of view on a personal basis, I don’t know, I’m not really familiar with her as an artist.” (clips below)

Kid Ink also shared his thoughts on Kendrick Lamar’s controversial remarks about racial tension in Ferguson, Mo and gave Larry his own opinion on what isn’t working, “I am very sympathetic to situations especially when people pass but I never have ever agreed with the riot factor, like that just never works. I don’t feel like it works for anyone, it doesn’t make anything better at the end of the day and a lot of people lose from that.” (clip below)

The “Full Speed” artist talked about whether or not the rap and hip hop community will be open to embracing a mainstream gay artist, “Yeah, you know what I’m saying, if the lyrics and everything is acceptable to that urban community,” and added that it might be a slow acceptance process. Kid Ink ended the interview by giving Larry his very own tattoo sleeve featuring all of Larry’s favorite things. (clips below)

The True TEA. No Honey. Extra Tea Leaf about @LivingAdrene

2015/01/img_0057.jpg

In case you have been out of the loop, say hello to Adrene Ashford. Adrene is Fashion Stylist and recent breakout star from the reality series “Sorority Sisters” that aired on Vh1 a few weeks back and was canceled a few weeks later. #TrueTea

Throughout the few weeks of a Season we at #TSB kept out mouths shut just to see what the kick back was going to be. Well here is our rundown:

Adrene was the Fav.
MeToya was Lost.
Priyanka was the Hoodratt.
Shannon was the White girl who didn’t wanna be known as the White girl but was still a white girl.
April was Thirsty.
Everyone else was Void.

There’s your re-cap of the whole Season. Now, recently we seen a posting on Adrenes Instagram (Adrenes IG)that lead to this post. The comment said “HaHa. Was it worth it? Now your career is over.” Like the Lady she is Adrene didn’t say anything but Babeeeeeeeeeeeeee her Fans went IN.

2015/01/img_0021.jpg

Now you know we here at #TrueSlamBook.com like to Mind our Own Business. However, this one time I had to make an exception. Adrene was Adrene before Sorority of No Sisters and she will be Adrene after. This California Beauty is a #Fashion Beast. From Film to TV to Music Videos, she does it all. Truth be told (clears throat) she bout the ONLY one who was relevant before the show.

Now, though we may not reside in Atlanta we frequent the City. Every time we are there and take a trip down Peter St. “House of Adrene” (H. O. A) which is the Couturé Boutique owned by Adrene is NEVER pressed for customers. We’ve even seen her On a few Sets in the L. A. area.

All in all, let us end with this. To hate on a person based on perception is a sign of Weakness. So the show wasn’t Perfect, Bytch neither is You. Let me follow you with a camera 24/7 then Edit the Footage how I want to without you knowing. I bet you some of your TRUTHS will came out too you Raggedy Ann Doll Face Bytch. #ThatIsAll

@TyAliMusic “She Got Me Like” Video Review…. He Asked for it……… #TSB must keep it REAL

IMG_87171

You know we here at TSB vow to tell the Truth and Nothing but the Truth. Recently we received a Tweet from rapper Tyson Kruze aka  Ty Ali in reference to his new music video for “She Got Me Like” that was recently placed into rotation on MTV Jams. See for yourself:

image1

Now, I don’t know who told him to do it, but since he did…… Here it is….

The video begins with a beautiful opening shot that really draws the viewer in.

IMG_59411

 

From there Ty Ali takes us on a journey regarding him and the young lady and how she has him OPEN. The quality of the video is truly to be commended. Shouts to the Producer for making the visual a quality filled product.

Now, lets talk about this video:

First of all, I got bout tired of Ty and the leading on the last on the damn pier. The video is almost 4 minutes long and that 4 minutes is spread amongst 3 scenes. The pier, The apartment, and The courts of which the pier is the primary.

IMG_39181 IMG_39211 IMG_39141Now, in all fairness it is a beautiful scenery, however, he needs to call the video “Chillin on the Pier with Shanty.” Because that’s what he did for 75% of the video.

While on the Pier, the Leading lady is wearing a cute chill day outfit. He face is beat but not too intense. Her Jewelry matches the imagery of Ty Ali and all is in order. Well, all except her hair. Chile, I don’t know who let her walk on set with that puffy ass bang wrap. Now, I understand if it MAY be REAL and All Natural or whatever, but she needs a Good Flat Iron with a Shine finish.

I promise you her hair annoyed me all on the pier. Gurllllllllllllll. Not Cute dot com….. In any case, I must admit, while on the Pier Ty Ali was df in O.G. Mode. His Waves was on flee and his smile was brighter than the son. Damnnnnnnn Ty Ali, where you be at???

IMG_39101 IMG_39021

Oh Yeah, he did that…….

For the next scene we move to the apartment. Honestly, I can’t fully say the APARTMENT as the shots were so tight we could’ve been at the extended stay for all I know. LoL.

Anyway, Leading Lady answers the door and her hair begins to annoy me all over again.

IMG_39051

Here we go with the puffiness. Maybe the air was misty  or summit. All I know is, I want to go heat the flat iron up myself and get that Red Pressing Grease out the cabinet and go to work.

As they sit on the couch and chill, she’s cute or whatever, but who told her ass to do the Ashanti Side Sweep in the Back Hair-Du???? Gurrrrrrrrrrrrrllllllll #ByeFelicia. (You gotta see the video) Then, as she sits there while Ty Ali is rapping to her, the interaction she provides is DRY like Wood Dust. She sitting her puffy hair ass on the couch not giving sexy at ALL. Mind you, Ty Ali is licking his lips, making eye contact, doing everything to make the kitty Purrrrrrrr. By this point, I feel like the video has gone from “She Got Me Like” to “He Tryna to Ger Her Like.” I swear he was trine get her in the mood and she sitting there like Sister Mary Clarence…….. Haaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy Puffy Hair Boring Girl.

IMG_39061 IMG_39091 IMG_39111 IMG_39121

Ughhhhhhhhh, girl get out the video. Let me put one of my staff members in this video. I bet you she would really have Ty Ali “Like” #Yeet……….

Last but not least we go to the Basketball Court. At this point i’m over her. R.I.P to her being the Leading Lady, she’s now the Fill In…… Her interaction was yet again BLANK and you know you suppose to be on 1000 when you at the court with your dude. Being at the court with your dude is him letting the team know that you are the ONE. Yo are suppose to have the Swagger on a Million. The interactions on a Billion and the Baddie Status to Infinity and Beyond. Chileeeeeeeeee, she made me fall asleep…… #ByeAgainFelicia

IMG_39161 IMG_39171 IMG_39191

You see that last pic????? She smiling like Ty Ali just gave her a Lollipop, while he looking at her giving Sensual Seduction……… Ooh, let him look at me like that. This kitty would purr so gently and begin the pulsate to the point…. Ooh, let me stop… Haaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy Ty Ali (Page Me) LoL.

All in All, Ty Ali asked , “Is the Main Girl Bad as F***?” The #TSB Answer is NO…….. She is a pretty little girl, but she is not worthy of being called Badd as F***.  She can NOT be in any of your videos going forward. Let her stay home and bake cookies and brownies. Ole non Baddie Gal Face Ass……..

Here’s some Beautiful Stills from the Video:
