Stronger with Each Tear

Mary J. Blige drop her latest Cd called Stronger with Each Tear on Monday December 21, 2009. OK, now are you ready for my Review?

Dear Mary,

Mary I am soooooo sorry but, you miss the mark on this one. First off you are good for 2 maybe 3 fast tracks on one Cd but, you need to stick with the gut wrenching slow cuts that your #1 fan (Totally Tania) is use to. Why do you have 5 fast tracks and 3 mid-tempo's on a 12 track Cd?

I will give you credit because your first single "The One" was my ring tone for a long time. I love that song not much of a fan of the remix with Drake but I will deal with it. Then, you drop the second single "I am" nice song and it has a grown folk feel but just didn't feel like Mary to me. Don't get me wrong I don't want you to be drunk and high Mary but, damn you could at least be "Be without you" Mary.

Review...

Check out "Good Love" featuring T.I. and "I Feel Good" (Track 4 and 5 if you have the bootleg copy) LMAO! She ends the Cd with 4 slow songs one of which that features Trey Songz or as I call him (Fake ass R. Kelly) it is an OK cut that will do well on the radio. "Kitchen" is a funny cut "In The Morning is classic Mary and real fans will feel this one. The last rack "I Can See In Color" is a throw back to the Aretha's and Etta's of the world.

Back to my letter...

Overall Mary I give your Cd bootleg status. Real fan's will buy it and make copies for other people so those folks can have a complete Mary collection. Hit me with a few remixes in 2010 and I will re-review the Cd.

Avatar

First of all I want you all the know that “The Future” Mr. Jordan Rowell is playing basketball and killing them boys with his mean cross over and fast breaks. As a loud mother I can’t help but to scream “Dunk, Dunk” every time he goes charging the basket. We are working on those free throws but he is killing the court.

My week end was full of basket ball games, eating out, and movies. Now for the moment you all have been waiting on.

Cell phone off it is Movie time…

After a long day of basketball games Jordan and I decided to go catch a movie. We were racing to the theatre because we wanted to catch Avatar in 3-D. We whisked pass the other movie goers and went straight for our back row sits. Mainly because I just can’t see anymore and 3-D kills my visions but I love it.

We made it just in time for the previews (we love previews). No popcorn no soda because we were hitting up the Portillo’s afterwards. Wow, is all I could say. They went big with this one. Even the previews were in 3-D so save those glasses that they charge you for when you go see a movie in 3-D. Yes, they charged me $3 extra just because it was in 3-D (they bogus as hell for that one)! The movie was amazing; it was like chocolate cake for the eyeballs. If you are a Sci-fi geek or a gushy love story person this is the movie for you. Now I must warn you this movie is Titanic/Benjamin Button long. Yes, if you need to waste 3 hours go see it. If you love from another planet type films go see it. If you love the damn smurfs go see it because this flick is all about the blue people.

Lastly, if you think this movie is about the little dude with the arrow on his head you are going to be disappointed. He is no where to be found in this movie. I was about 1 hour 20 minutes into this film before I turned to ask Jordan where is the dude with the arrow on his head. He laughed and said momma that is a different movie.

I give this movie a matinee status so catch it first thing in the morning because once again it is long. It is a must see at the show in 3-D or IMAX because the bootleg copy will not do it justice.

Do you remember back in the day when it got cold and you would go coat shopping with your Momma and the coats were always heavy as hell. What happen to those coats? They are selling the cheapest, thinnest coats ever in these stores today. Why? Global warming has not hit Chicago it is cold as ever in the CHI and believe me Jordan needs an old school heavy coat.

The Princess and the Frog

I recently went to the movies to see The Princess and the Frog. Before I clown the hell out of this movie I want to go on record saying "nice try Disney." OK, the lighting bug/fire fly stole the damn show. Dude was funny as hell but full of stereo types. This is suppose to be the first Black Princess movie and she was only a black princess for the last 5 minutes of the damn movie. She was a frog longer than she was a person. The sing was amazing but, I think they had maybe one to many songs. The movie actually could freak out a small child because of all the damn voodoo magic so before you take your little princess prepare for a squeeze or two. I give this movie a 3 out of 5 because of the damn lighting bug/fire fly. I want to believe in love like him.

Million Dollar Bill

OK y'all this is my new jam. Whitney your Cd is garbage but this is the jam. I think she went a little to spiritual for me so it was hard to give it a chance but Doug Banks and De-De would not stop playing this damn song so it grew on me. I am hooked and I want to give Alicia Keys props for this one. You should have kept it for you own album which I heard was hot garbage.

What is up with these artist dropping entire Cd's knowing they should be dropping a single instead. Mary J. show them how it's done. She drops December 22, 2009. No need to run out and buy it for me as a stockin stuffer. I will have it by noon on 12/22.

Where have I been?

I first would like to apologize to all of my true fans. I have been through some terrible work weeks, a much needed vacation, a return to work week from hell and TODAY! Some of you have asked what's going on with Totally Tania and I promise to tell you all about it.

The Coat...

Yes, I did cave-in and I finally bought my son a coat that fits. It is a very nice coat and we both agreed on it instantly. I also beat the snow and found him some great North face boots size 12 yes I said 12. I promise to take picture of the new coat to post on the site soon. I did take back the too little ass coat he bought from Target. I had no receipt and of course he had popped the tags so I only got store credit. Don't tell him but I bought some laundry detergent and other household items with that $20 bucks.

The Birthday...

Yes I had a Birthday November 28th and I have officially stop aging. This was my last birthday and I am going to love 34 for another 10 years at least. The adventure on my birthday was not that Grambling State put the beat down on Southern 31-13, it wasn't even the skate party I had (no one was hurt) but, it was renewing my license. That morning I got up early and went to the DMV; why they tell me I had to take the written test. You could imagine my shock. The funny thing is that my ass almost failed the test. You are only allowed 7 errors and I had 6 LMAO! I need my license so I let out a big "Thank ya Jesus" right in the middle of the DMV.

I just want to put it out there that I recently saw New Moon. You know the vampire/twilight flick that all the kids are crazy about. I want to go on record as saying I am on Team Jacob. That boy is beyond sexy. He is a werewolf but he can get it OooooooWeeeeee. Edward that vampire dude is pasty grey and skinny I don’t know what people see in him. Let me know who you rolling with.

Music...

That Melanie Fiona that I waited on most of summer is straight garbage. The hottest tracks have already been released so don't do it. It ain't even worth the blank. However my boy Mr. Robert Kelly has done it again. That boy is a genius and ya'll sleep if you ain't got that new CD. I play all 15 tracks no skips. That is a nice stocking stuffer so get on it. I am waiting to here Chris Brown CD I will keep you posted. Don't forget my girl Mary J. Blige drops on December 22 but I am sure I will have it early and my reviews will be positive.

Christmas...

Ok, most of you know I am not in the mood this year and that I am only worried about a gift for my son. I got him sowed up for Christmas so my message to ya'll is please don't put yourself in credit card debt trying buy for folks. Ain't nobody got no damn money so just say I love you and give hugs, pictures, mix Cd's you know shit you can make or give for free. I will chat with you before the holiday but for know two fingers!
