BLIGE COVERS EBONY MAG" data-via="" data-url="http://str8nyc.com/2011/09/18/str8-glossy-mary-j-blige-covers-ebony-mag/" >Tweet</a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script><p><center> Check out the Queen of Hip Hop Soul, Mary J. Blige, gracing the cover of Ebony magazine&#8217;s October issue&#8230;on stands now! In the cover issue MJB sets the record straight those rumors, her demons and her soulmate. Below find a few magazine scans of the issue. </center><br />
<center> Sidenote: I&#8217;m not going to even address that horrible and non-flattering photo of MJB on the cover. I mean&#8230;look at her face&#8230;she just looks pissed and annoyed. Lol. </center> </p>
<p><center><a href="http://str8nyc.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/EBONYMJBSTR8NYCCOVER.jpg"><img src="http://str8nyc.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/EBONYMJBSTR8NYCCOVER.jpg" alt="" title="EBONYMJBSTR8NYCCOVER" width="429" height="590" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-45551" /></a></center> </p>
<p><center>After skimming through the piece, MJB brought up a topic that&#8217;s been the conversation of my friends and I. Didn&#8217;t MJB put out better material and heart felt songs when she was &#8220;not&#8221; happy? Don&#8217;t you miss you the old Mary? It&#8217;s no question that depression, heart ache and just being in a negative space at times brings the most creative and chart topping songs. And Mary has come a long from those &#8220;Be Happy&#8221; and &#8220;Going Down&#8221; days. She&#8217;s now happy, both spiritually and emotionally. Do we really want to see MJB back in chaos and pain? </center><br />

<center> There&#8217;s no lie Beyonce is going all out for the promotion of her new album <em><strong>4</strong></em> dropping June 28th. We can only expect to see Beyonce everywhere in the next few weeks. Are you ready?  And most importantly are you copping her new album despite its weak Billboard charts losing streak and a leaked album&#8230;Are folks sending Beyonce a message? Not sure, but while we wait for the overdrive promo of Queen B. enjoy the photos below. </center><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[            <a href="http://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-count="" data-text="STR8 GLOSSY: AMBER ROSE GIVES BBM POSE FOR VIBE MAGAZINE JUNE/JULY &#8217;11&#8230;" data-via="" data-url="http://str8nyc.com/2011/05/27/str8-glossy-amber-rose-gives-bbm-pose-for-vibe-magazine-junejuly-11/" >Tweet</a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script><p><center>Fab&#8217;s/Kanye&#8217;s/Reggie Bush&#8217;s/ and now Wiz Khalifa&#8217;s arm-candy graces the cover of Vibe&#8217;s &#8220;Sexy Issue&#8217; to match Rick Ross on the female version. Ross + Rose = Sexy Time. Once again&#8230;why is this chick famous? Ok&#8230;she&#8217;s beautiful, but definitely not the only beauty on the block. So what differentiates her from the rest? I guess her glossy wet orange puckered lips +  licking down a popsicle is some kinda of indication. </center><br />
<center><img src="http://str8nyc.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/newsitemimage.newsimage.dimg_-500x281.jpg" alt="" title="newsitemimage.newsimage.dimg" width="500" height="281" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-43953" /></center><br />
<center>In the interview she discusses her relationship with the true icon Kanye West, who she says helped her realize her true beauty and potential to be an <em>icon.</em> She tells the mag, <em>“Kanye would always tell me how beautiful I was and that I was going to be iconic. He always said that, ‘Baby, you are iconic. You don’t understand what you have.’ I didn’t. I didn’t understand it.” </em></p>
<p>After Kanye she says:<em> “What am I supposed to do? Crawl up in a corner and die ‘cause I’m not with Kanye anymore? Am I supposed to go back to the strip club and not take these opportunities that I have?”</em> She&#8217;s right, she shouldn&#8217;t regress, but what&#8217;s the next move?  She now wants to be this relatable icon more so than other model celebs. She says: <em>&#8220;I don’t have rich parents and it’s a struggle. I can’t just call my dad and be like, ‘Dad, my money is a little messed up. Can you buy me a car or a house? It’s not like that for me. I feel like more people will relate to my story than the Kardashians or the Hiltons.”</em> </p>
<p>My question is what will she do with that story? I&#8217;m not too sure I&#8217;m comfortable with her just capitalizing on her looks, oh wait, she&#8217;s only a model. So by all means, do your dougie and get your money while those looks are valuable, but I hope she comes to understand other things about herself and inner-beauty. </center></p>

<p><em>&#8220;Everywhere I look, I see them calling it &#8217;4,&#8217; she explains. &#8220;I had a whole other name and concept, but I keep seeing that the fans love the name &#8217;4,&#8217; and I think it would be a really nice thing to let them name the record.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;We all have special numbers in our lives, and 4 is that for me,&#8221; she says. It&#8217;s the day I was born. My mother&#8217;s birthday, and a lot of my friends&#8217; birthdays, are on the fourth; April 4 is my wedding date.&#8221; </em></center><br />
