I love RiRi... big fan! But I'm just wondering who the hell told her that she's "Gangsta?" I mean, last time I checked if you "gangsta" you don't leave a fight with a niggalookin like you got ran over by a tractor! Now, don't get me wrong, I totally disagree with Chris Brown whoopin her ass... no man should ever put his hands on a woman! But if you the woman who gets beat, you don't come out of that talkin bout you "gangsta." I mean, does she call herself initiated into a gang b/c she got her ass whooped??? Is that what it takes? Being publiclyembarrassed worldwide? I think not. Now her image is totally different than the Rhianna we used to know. Which is okay I guess because artists are supposed to grow and emerge into something different. But emerging into this "I'm so hard" and "Gangsta 4 Life" image just because you got beat.... hmmmm i don't think so.
And Chris Brown, what the hell are you wearing in your "Transform Ya" video??? Put a shirt on damn it! Your 'fit is not the business!!!
Anyways, here are the lyrics to Rhianna's "G4L."
I lick the gun when I'm done cause I know that revenge is sweet, so sweet This is a gang ladies bang baby bang tell me what you need, oh Any motherfucka wanna disrespect Playin' with fire finna get you wet How that feel down there on your knees, huh
I got these girls like a solider Trip and it's goin' down down down
I'm ready to roll Girl I'm with you If they get you they get me So come on let's go Bitch I'm with you if you if if you with me
You know I'm down I'm down for life Loaded, reloaded and let's go Gangsta for life Till the day that I die yeah I promise I'll stand and fight Cause you know that I'm down, you know I'm down Gangsta for life
We drivin' by with them headlights off We know where you stay Know what you did We don't play that shit nigga, we don't play no
Everybody quiet when you did your dirt Acting like a bitch finna get you hurt Breakin' liars down to the knees, oh
I got these girls like a solider Trip and it's goin' down down down
I'm ready to roll Girl I'm with you If they get you they get me So come on let's go Bitch I'm with you if you if if you with me
You know I'm down I'm down for life Loaded, reloaded and let's go Gangsta for life Till the day that I die yeah I promise I'll stand and fight Cause you know that I'm down, you know I'm down Gangsta for life
Guns, check Girls, check Hell naw we ain't done yet Got a lot to handle We ain't took over the world yet
We're a army Better yet a navy Better yet crazy Guns in the air Guns in the air Guns in the air Can't hurt us again when you come around here We got our guns, got our guns We got our guns, got our guns We got our guns in the motherfuckin' air, oh

You know I'm down I'm down for life Loaded, reloaded and let's go Gangsta for life Till the day that I die yeah I promise I'll stand and fight Cause you know that I'm down, you know I'm down Gangsta for life
I lick the gun when I'm done cause I know that revenge is sweet
I love England! I do I do I do... however, I have a few pet peeves about life in good ole Great Britain. I will share all of these with you over time.
Personally, If I choose to do something someone else has already done, I'm gonna do it better. I mean that's just common sense, right!?! Sadly, a few of these British artists have tried to do music, American style, and have epically failed. Sure they have some artists that are great, and will be honorably mentioned in future blogs, but good lawd, why must these other artists bring the good ones down???Check these out and you'll see what I mean:
JLS - Umbrella originally by Rhianna
Joey McElderry- The Climb, originally by Miley Cyrus (Can't stand her! She drives me crazy! But at least the girl knows what she's doin!!!)
X Factor Finalists (basically the British version of American Idol) You Are Not Alone, originally by Michael Jackson (R.I.P)
Anything you can do I can do better, I can do anything better than you.... NO YOU CAN'T NO YOU CAN'T!!!!
Those of you who know me, know that I have absolutely no idea how to put a filter on my mouth. I tend to say exactly what is on my mind without sugar-coating what I say. The way I see it is if what I'm saying isn't sweet, then why sugar coat it?
Over the years, I have still not learned how to filter what I think or what I want to say, but I have learned how to push the stop button in my brain that sends the message to my tongue to speak the truth. I personally have not suffered any consequences to my actions of my bluntness, but others would consider the aftermath of my "Rican Speakin" negative. There have been times when I have made people cry or caused arguements between others; I used to not care. I used to think, if you can't handle the truth, then stop doing stupid things that provoke me to wake yo ass up and make you smell the roses! I am well aware that I was ignorant... still ignorant, but I have come to understand that although I may not be affected by i say, others can be affected negatively.
Some of my friends love me because they know that I will ALWAYS ALWAYS tell the truth and give my true opinion. Some of my friends avoid me because they simply cannot handle the truth or are afraid of the truth. Because of this, I have learned to open my mouth only when asked...
The inspiration of this blog is a situation that I have been dealing with for years. I have been fighting the overwhelming urge to warn one of my friends about somebody and tell them every reason why they should stay away from this person, but I know, oh how I know, that all hell will break loose if I dare say a thing... All I know is that I have come a long way, because Julia three years ago, would have said it all and not gave a damn.
Thanks to the good ol U.S. Air Force, I am across the world in England, away from all my family and most of my friends. Due to this huge change in my life, I have been inspired to start a blog, both from a couple of my friends here who have blogs and due to the simple fact that I am a home all day with an infant who's only communication with me involves facial expressions, crying and baby talk. I figure this will be a nice way for me to communicate with other adults other than my husband, get these thoughts out of my brain that only seem to appear when I go to bed at night, and keep my friends and family updated on my new life here in the United Kingdom.
I am new to this whole blog thing, but from what i hear (and read) you can pretty much write about anything... so that is exactly what I'll be doing. Be expecting to hear lots about my life as a mommy, wife, daughter, sister, friend, and an blunt person. Yes I am one of those people, who is loud, and bluntly tells the truth. You know that one person who tells exactly how they feel and forgets to filter what they say for the sake of saving someone else heartache... well yeah, I'm that person. Most Puerto Ricans are; hence, the name of my blog "Rican Speakin." I have tons on my mind now, but I don't want to overdo my first blog entry. Until next time my friends... until next time.
