MOVE OVER CHOLAS, CHONGAS TAKIN OVER
Back in the day my bestest homegirls were Latinas and my favorite movie was Mi Vida Loca. So when I saw this video I was buggin' out!!!! Sharpie lip liner and flea market jewelry for $2.99. (Classic!)These girls reppin' Hialeah (my second home in FL) rocked this video.
What's a Chonga you ask?
A girl of Hispanic origin, usually between the ages of 12 and 19, but sometimes as young as 8. Primarily found in Miami (most famously, in Hialeah), the Chonga is known for her cheap form of dress, a combination of the so-called gangsta look and that of a prostitute, but can vary between the two. She wears ridiculously large hoop earrings large enough to be bracelets, which are usually gold and have their name written in them, and diamond studs high up on her ears. They may also wear thick, gold bangle bracelets in stacks on their arms. Depending on how ghetto she thinks she is, she may wear oversized men's t-shirts with tight, usually white Brazilian pants, with a colored thong worn underneath that shows through (on purpose). The Chonga's shoe of choice is usually either the traditional black Reeboks, white Nike Air Force Ones, completely black Converse high tops, velvet black ankle boots, or the most popular, Chinese beaded slippers in the same matching color ad their top, and worn with ankle socks. Most recently, Chongas have begun listening to reggaeton, but also enjoy rap, R&B, and the radio stations that play these genres of music. They can also be heard frequently calling these stations to make "shout-outs" to their baby daddy. Chongas have a very distinct form of speech, a cross between poorly imitated black slang and a thick Spanish accent, which emphasizes on the vowels. Some Chongas even speak entirely in Spanglish. Here are some sample sentences, and how they would be pronounced in Chonga:
O HELLNAA bish Ima beesho azz, waash! OMAIIGAA!
(Oh hell no bitch, I’m going to beat your ass, watch! Oh my God!)
"Check it out"...

Gettin' Punk'd:
So, Really, I mean who wouldn't charge up a silly ass girl if she started getting loud with you? Well. I know I would. I got a bad habit of cussing people out anyway...You can take the girl outta the Bronx, and you know the rest. But, Kelis got arrested for that a little while ago didn't she? It's safe to say she didn't learn her lesson...Check out our girl getting loud on MTV.

Say it Ain't So!!!
Well, last night didn't go well (Sorry Gail!!!), But i'm up and back to the keys to give you the news.
First Up!
Kelis Got Arrested AKA Requiem for a Drunk Hoe-Kelis was arrested early Friday morning in Miami Beach after screaming racial obscenities at two female police officers who were posing as prostitutes.
The officers were working an undercover operation in South Beach, when cops say Kelis started screaming racial slurs at the women. She continued screaming and rushed toward them, and had to be restrained by friends, a police report said. According to the report, Kelis’ “actions caused people walking by to stop and form a crowd. The sidewalk was blocked by the disturbance, causing people to walk in the street and causing traffic to stop.”
Damn....This is really funny, funnier than when my other girl(Kimora Lee) Got busted for having a bag of Sticky in the car, They were both smiling in their mugshots though, as if they could feel their street cred growing. I hope she got out on bail though, this sort of thing doesn't seem like it'd be a reason to lock somebody up, but the Pigs like to make examples of famous people, so you never know.
Next!
A Video Jewel:
This song is amazing, I'll never get tired of it, but i'm posting it because this is
probably what I missed by not going to see DJ Offbeat last night....I feel really bad about that.
Oh well, I'm making it my business to find a place where I can hear some good Latin music on a weekly basis, I miss it....Plus, it reminds me of home, and isn't that really important?
PLUS*
This may seem really lame to you, but I used to dance to this with my friends, like, we learned all the moves and would rehearse and then do it for our parents on the porch.....This brings back lot's of memories...

This past year I've taken notice to a lot of new trends that have spurred up here and there. Some were dope, yet some got on my DAMN nerves. And with a new year coming about, I thought I'd share my opinion on what I hope will slowly diminish like Fidel Castro's health. With that said...
1. Bandanas around the neck
I'm a beliver that style happens. If you happen to throw on a bandana around your neck to top off your ensamble, so be it. But cats are taking it to the extreme. It's not stylish anymore because it's obvious your doing it because other people do it, and you think it's cool.
2. Tall Tees
$hit don't make any sense. Men are wearing dresses????
3. Coach and Louis knock offs
Played!
4. Bape
SUPER played!
5. "Baaaaallllliiinnnnn"
Okay, I'll get down on the dance floor to the track. Hell I got down to it last week at the Ghostface listening party at Eleven80.
But if I hear people yelling out BBBBAAAALLLLIIINNNNN, I'm gonna blow!!!
