Source: Astrid Stawiarz / Getty Time flies when you’re turning up. 2009-2019. End of an era. — Sidra Aziz (@NamkeenJalebi) June 16, 2019 The era when Facebook was new and poppin’, flip phones and baggy clothes were out and sidekicks and skinny jeans are in — but one thing that doesn’t change with the times is our love for music. Ten years ago, Rihanna hadn’t solidified her place in music, Beyoncé and Jay Z weren’t even parents yet and Kanye West was Kardashian-free. 2009 was a such a transitional year, too. It was the end of a decade, we lost Michael Jackson, and the death of autotune was on the rise. Music still had a little meaning and a little fun, and wasn’t so drug and club influenced just yet. Life was much simpler back then. @Only1Vlad: What a crazy roller coaster 2009 – 2019 has been thus far. An entire decade of ups and downs (like all of you). The most important takeaway I’ve really learned and took away from the past 10 years is – people aren’t always going to be in your life. So, hold on to memories. Just in time for the nostalgic November weather, hit the flip to check out our list of hit songs that were probably on your playlist in 2009.

Rapper Megan Thee Stallion gifted Black girls and minimally problematic Whites a way of life this past season: “Hot Girl Summer.” Women were living their best wild, free and mostly single lives, doing what they wanted to do, not prioritizing the feelings of men over their own. Aside from the corporation co-opts and the disagreements it caused between married and single women, it was beautiful. Still, when Megan got into—what we thought was a bona fide relationship with fellow rapper MoneyBagg Yo , people wondered if she was something like a hypocrite, encouraging women to flip the bird to men while simultaneously having a boyfriend. That’s a discussion for another day, but it did happen. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). The two seemed to be happy with one another. Megan gifted him a $150k half heart pendant necklace for his 28th birthday just last month. The two co-starred in a video together. He nobly defended her against 50 Cent’s infamous trolling. And in mid-July there was the obligatory Instagram post announcing their relationship. But it’s since been deleted. Now that it’s the fall and cuffing season is upon us—the time when people want to be snuggled up, Megan and MoneyBagg Yo have seemingly called it quits. But the circumstances of their breakup and whether the relationship was real in the first place have been called into question. It began with this series of tweets from Megan. I don’t even chase liquor why would I chase a nigga — HOT GIRL MEG (@theestallion) October 25, 2019 Normally, we would have taken that as typical rap bravado. But in conjunction with the rumor mill, it started to seem like the messages were targeted. Later, reports claimed that MoneyBagg Yo had impregnated a stripper.

In another Instagram story, he wrote: “Was never my b*tch [brown skinned shrug emoji] [Black Rap game fulla smoke & mirrors…It was all publicity…dn’t believe da hype.

Sometimes weed smokers hide their stash TOO good. According to NYDailyNews , an Australian man went to the doctor after suffering from severe sinus headaches got a lot more than a head high when he received his diagnosis. The 48-year-old ex-convict was told that he had a “rubber capsule containing degenerate vegetable/plant matter.” Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). That’s right, 18-years-ago the man snuck some weed into the prison that he was confined to and never retrieved it. The unidentified gentleman put the cannabis contraband inside a balloon and shoved it up his nose. When he went to get it, it was shoved further up the cavity and the man just assumed that he had passed it thru his system, except he didn’t. The unidentified 48-year-old Sydney man’s plight was documented in the medical journal BMJ Case Reports, which called it “the first reported case of prison-acquired marijuana-based rhinolith.” The doctors got it out and the man went on to be fine.

I still don’t know who Becky G is, I guess I could google it but why bother. I am only posting this because I like her approach to Halloween photoshoots and not just because there is a Luchador mask in it, because my whole branding on this site, not that I’ve done any real branding, but you get what I am saying, has been the Luchador mask, that unfortunately has led to at least one person saying “what do you think you’re jack black or something” or “hey Nacho Libre get your own schtick”…but when Becky G does it…she’s half naked…and thus better…because when girls are half naked, despite how easy it is to do, it works.

I like Emma Roberts… I think there is something hot about her, mainly that she’s skinny, and stylish…. I think she’s got a good overall vibe, especially when she’s out there getting arrested for beating up her boyfriend like she did all those years ago. It’s funny and passionate. Not that I really know what her overall vibe is. I don’t pay attention to anything these people say or do. I just know she’s been in shit I’ve seen and didn’t annoy me. I like that her dad is some Oscar winning loser who reminds us of the flaw in the system of acting. You know a fucking loser fail without a pot to piss in after winning an Oscar. A straight to DVD just to pay the mortgage on a shitty house that is probably not in his name….a self involved addict piece of shit who likely disappointed this one her entire life. I just find that adds so much to a girl’s overall personality…that makes them fun to fuck. I like that her aunt is America’s sweetheart Julia Roberts….and I like that she’s roller skating with her little tits out. You see not all things need to be negative. Not all things need to mock these famous idiots. Sometimes…things are just good and this is one of those times… JOIN THE NEWSLETTER YOU ASSHOLES!
