Adele Serves in the Name!!!!!

Listen, the Bey-Hive is Upset Bytch. Mother Adele has slayed the charts and Beyoncé has Never.

Now, you know we live for us some Queen Bey but the stans have been going H A M on Social Media over Beyoncé vs. Adele.

Well, we know the numbers don’t lie.

Adele’s red-hot new album “25” sold a whopping 3.38 million copies in its first week — making it the first ever to sell more than 3 million copies in a single week since Nielsen Music began tracking album sales.

The critically acclaimed LP obliterated the previous record for most album sales in one week, which was held for nearly 15 years by *NSYNC after they sold more than 2.4 million copies of “No Strings Attached” in 2000.

Adele’s eye-popping output is particularly impressive considering no other album besides “No Strings Attached” has even sold more than 2 million copies in one week. In fact, only 20 albums have eclipsed the 1 million-sales plateau according to Nielsen, which tracks album sales every Friday through every Thursday.

The British singer’s latest album is already the largest selling album for all of 2015, surpassing Taylor Swift’s “1989,” which has sold 1.8 million copies since the turn of the calendar after dropping late last year.

The hot-selling “25” hit shelves on Friday, Nov. 20, and it had already sold more than 2.3 million copies as of the following Monday.

The hot-selling “25” hit shelves on Friday, Nov. 20, and it had already sold more than 2.3 million copies as of the following Monday.

“There isn’t anybody that I’ve talked to in the music business who hasn’t been astonished by these numbers,” Dave Bakula, an executive at Nielsen, told the Associated Press.

Fans were extremely eager for “25” to hit shelves, as it had been nearly five years since Adele released new music. Her previous album, “21,” has sold 11.2 million copies — the 10th most in American music history.

Adele’s enormous album sales have likely been influenced by her decision to not make “25” available on streaming services such as Spotify or Apple Music, meaning fans needed to purchase the album to listen to it.

Last year, Swift also enjoyed considerable success for after pulling her music off Spotify, as her “1989” album sold 1.3 million in its first week.
Congrats to Adele. She #Slayed.

The Legend: Coko of SWV vs. The KNOT: K. Michael

Coko1

Now listen, we all know that here at TrueSlamBook we keep it 100. It’s no secret that recently on the BET Awards Tamar Braxton and K. Michael joined Patti LaBelle for a performance. Babeeeeeeeeeeee! The read is, Tamar came out looking like Champagne Cola on Coke. K. Michael started out doing a Burlesque Class then went in back and got ready for the Inaugural Ball with that UGLY Olive Green dress on. Now, as if that wasn’t enough, the Notes were all WRONG…. Chile, had Mother Patti not come out when she did the performance would have been a PURE T BUST.

Meanwhile in Twitterville, the fans were very vocal of their disappointment with the performance. Of course it’s only fitting that they reach out to a Legend to save the day. This is where it gets good. Follow me, Legendary Bad Bich Cheryl ‘Coko’ Clemons of SWV was on Twitter and hear the cries of her fans. Being the interactive celebrity that she is she decided to do a few RTs and provide a few “LoL” emoji’s. In case you missed it, it looked a little something like this:

“Only1Coko
@Only1Coko RT @Undefined_CHELE: And I love K Michelle but know your damn range and limit… If you not KeKe or @Only1Coko don’t sing that song. Except in the shower”

 Haaaaaaaaaa My Lord!!!!! where is or Patti or If Only You Knew” 

Jun 28  wowwww I was just think the same exact thinggggg

 Where’s ?!?! I can’t with these notes!! Jesus!!”

You get the point. Coko is at home minding her saved business and the fans are reaching out for assistance. Meanwhile in KNOTville, K. Michael Tweets,

 Coko but they didn’t ask you or your chopped teeth to perform. Your at home. Stop trying it. Love wins”

Followed by,

K. Michelle @kmichelle I’m sorry I’m cracking jokes, I’m drinking”

Sooooooooooooooooooooo, she’s buck. Now we all know in the Game of Fame you NEVER come for a Legend. Babeeeeeee, when I tell you Coko shut it down in the most astut manner. She simply tweeted,

I am Coko! @Only1Coko Anywho, time to pack! Back on the road tomorrow!!
Yes GAWD Legendary Tees. You betta come thru serving her 23 years and counting. While she 23 months and trying to hold on! Now you know it wouldn’t stop there. I head over to Instagram to post my pics from the BET Awards and Babeeeeeeeeeeeeee. The Tee got Real:
Kmichelle

It was at this moment that the game had to change.

Legend
Funny how a Song Title can fit a Situation YEARS Later!!!!!!

Why is K. Mess up here acting like she forgot her mouth use to look like how much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? Furthermore, she looked like she was going to bust out of that olive green monstrosity she called a dress with all that pumped body. Chile, please. Never come for the one who made your dreams possible. Don’t make me call Memph……. I digress…….. One thing to remember, Coko ain;t been SAVED all her LIFE…… She Reads for FILTH………

On another note, Did you see Lil Kim Slay the Stage????? Legends Always WIN…..

@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:

Lawd Lil Mo, Really?????

It was a quiet day and all was well. I was trying to mind my business, but I had to check emails. Babeeeeeeeeeee, can I show you this?
IMG_4488.PNG
Chile, when the ever called Lil Mo out for this album. Now you all know I lived for me some Mo Mo. But, I will say this album was a No No.

I don’t know who in life authorized this to be released, but they need to be FIRED. Now, in all fairness, before I give my take see what the fans had to say.

IMG_4492.PNG

IMG_4490.PNG

IMG_4489.PNG

IMG_4491.PNG
Now, if that wasn’t enough. Why her husband hop his rugged face ass on Instagram and post:

IMG_4494.PNG
Ummmmmm, can I just get a signed copy for free? I am not spending my good hard earned $9.99 on this muffled ass album. Especially after I just got that Good Good from Faith Evans for the same price. #Oops I digress.

Now, to keep it all the way TrueSlamBook.com style. This album sounds like Mo was bored on a Saturday and said “Ohh boo, record me!” She went in the closet studio hopped on the mic and did everything on a first take. Now #NoShade, her Vocals kill for blood. But, I mean come on now it’s Lil Mo. We know her Vocals will always kill. But this off level ass project is for the birds.

I mean, I know the label had enough of a budget for a clear product. Hell for all that I coulda got it done for free.

Then to add to it, the album bout bi polar as all hell. One minute he’s her handsome. The next track she see him with his new chick in the car and now she want him back. Then skip a few tracks down and her man is her life and her everything!!!!!!!!!!! Gurl, can I get an excedrin Cuz u just made my head hurt.

IMG_4487.PNG
All in All, I will admit. “Should’ve Never Let You Go” is my shytt. Chile she took me to a place that made me miss him and a Bytch had to catch my breath. Werkkkkkkkkk Mo. But the levels is still off tho.

Last but not least, who approved this Album Cover? Mo, really? Gurl, this Lion King ass hair in the Garden or Eden in this Scarlet Letter outfit is not doing it for me. It reminds me of family day in the park after church service. #Amend!!!!!!!

So, my TrueSlamBook.com Framily. How do you like the album??????

Aspiring Model LaTrina N. Hunter has something to Say!

You know at TrueSlamBook we love a person who is all about their business. Today while going through emails we found a submission that really spoke to us.

According to they story, Aspiring Model LaTrina Hunter is a female who refuses to #Stop. After modeling for a few years, LaTrina took a few years off as she was fed up with the Bullshytt of the Industry, Flakey Photographers, and the Non-Support of some of her peers.

Refusing to be defeated LaTrine engaged in a photoshoot recently and all we can say is GOOD GAWD!!!!! This young Lady is a Force to be reckoned with.

LaTrina HunterShe is absolutely Beautiful. The poses are great and the Skin is Flawless. We can Officially say #SheDidThat….

The Best part about this shoot is that when LaTrina posted her pictures she provided (2) Powerful captions. She said:

  • “Convince yourself that you’re going to make it. This world is harsh & people will convince you otherwise.”
  • “BE YOU… The world will adjust!”

This is the ABSOLUTE truth. LaTrina took a situation that could have caused her to quit modeling all the way and decided to make her Haters her Motivators…..

Now, you know we gotta keep it real! LaTrina then pulled out her Foxy Brown Catsuit and served you Bytches Pam Grier Teas….. Can You Take her Realnessssssss?
