Whip Your Hair with Willow

Will and Jada definitely know how to raise some kids! 9 year old Willow Smith just released her first music video for her single "Whip My Hair." It's hard to believe you're listening to someone who wasn't alive when we were partying in 1999.

She's like a little Rihanna in the making, besides being signed to Jay-Z's label, she divas it up in front of the camera with her cool and quirky fashion sense. In the video she sports a mohawk, a braided heart, and long braids that are a makeshift paint brush for her hair whipping-Pollock like designs.

I'm not gonna lie, this is a pretty dope video. The killer hook "I whip my hair back and forth" repeated for the chorus is sure to be a club and dance explosion. People are gonna be whipping their hair everywhere.

Weekend Art

artist, Shaun Burner by my favorite piece

This past weekend was crazzzyyy, and amfm is ready for action this week! Gotta get ready for the Serve 60-amfm event coming up in November, and start planning the next issue of the mag. In the midst of all the craziness, I got to check out some dope art.

Went to an art show in Sacramento at the Phono Select record and music store, which I must say is a pretty nice spot; It just opened in September. They have some sweet records, some underground music, cheap CD's and plenty of trinkets and good reads to check out while you're browsing.

The show featured artists, Shaun Burner, and Waylon Horner. Their art styles meshed well together with their crazy pattern-like mazes and metropolis structures on wood and paper. It's amazing what can happen when a marker meets a hand.

I got a picture of one of the artists, Shaun Burner by one of my favorite pieces, a face done in black marker on white paper, so simple in essence but yet so striking. I was immediately drawn to it's whimsical detail and bold image of the face.

It was a good time. There was a nice crowd, nice vibe, and DJs, Riff Raff and Whores, spun and set the tone for a happening night.
