Dearest Bad Girls,

Dearest Bad Girls,

...Portia & Natalie.



I usually don't write love notes to reality tv castmembers,
but this had to be addressed & replayed.
I have been a fan of the Bad Girls Club since the first season & I have yet to see a fight like this...on ANY reality show.

Since season 4 of BGC aired, Natalie, you have been getting on my last nerves. When Kendra didn't knock your ass out, I knew it'd only be a matter of time before someone pounded your face in & I am oh so grateful it was Portia.



Even though I do not condone violence, I HATE disrespect & Natalie, you deserved to get drug. Period. Since the reel started rolling you have been going on & on about superficial shit.
LMAO. Karma is a beeeyyyoootttccchhhh.

Dearest Brittany Murphy,

Dearest Brittany Murphy,

Rest In Peace Brittany Murphy
Nov. 1977 - Dec. 2009

"2day the world lost a little piece of sunshine.
My deepest condolences go out 2 Brittany's family, her husband, &
her amazing mother Sharon.
See you on the other side kid."
-Ashton Kutcher [via Twitter]

My mouth dropped when I got home from a long day at work,
clicked on twitter & found out about your untimely death.
I am such a huge fan of your work.
One of my favorite movies, Clueless. "Rollin w/ the homies..."



PS: I found this site which has a lot of cool photos you took.

"[Monday, Dec. 14th]  Lloyd release[d] his first “post Murder Inc.” project, a FREE 8-song EP titled, Like Me: The Young Goldie EP available for download ... An impressive lineup of artist and producers were assembled to complete the project, including Lil Wayne, Drake, Bun-B, The Runners, Cool & Dre, Nicki Minaj, J. Holiday, and others. The lead single “Pusha” with Lil Wayne is quickly spreading across the country." - [YoungGoldie.com]





"Like Me" [ft. Bun B] - OOOO
"Pusha" - OOOO
"Take it Off" - [ft. J. Holiday & Nicki Minaj] OOOO
"What You Want" [ft. Mack Maine] - OOOO
"Think of Me" - OOO

Dearest Atlanta,

Dearest Atlanta,

...AkA "Home of the Haters"...



...Given to you by my favorite radio personality, [V-103s] Ryan Cameron.
I was listening to the radio today & what Ryan was saying is EXACTLY how Ive felt my whole seven plus years living in/all around the city of Atlanta.

Ryan explained this nickname by starting out with how Jermaine Dupri & Johnta Austin, both who reside here in the city of Atlanta, did some research and found out [Mariah Carey's] "We Belong Together" is the #1 single, in the last DECADE, with more radio plays than any other song.
[Side Note: JD & Johnta both contributed to the writing of the song]
I think JD & em were at an event & made the announcement.
Ryan said all you heard was "crickets". No one applauded, cheered, nothing.
That's a damn shame, but I'm not surprised.

I attend a lot of "underground" events in the city of Atlanta & it's ridiculous how people don't even CLAP for an individual b/c of the... hatred.
Like Ryan said, there's no extra charge on the ticket for applauding, especially if YOU aren't doing ANYTHING & these individuals are.
Support them. Damn. All you have to do is clap, maybe even yell if you feeling it.

My Motto: "You have to give love in order to get love"
& if you don't support someone, who the hell is going to support you?

That is all.

PS: Since Ive written this love note someone tweeted Gucci's album sales, [80something thousand] & followed with "My city [ATL] will blow you up, but won't support you...".
Its so obvious, Atlanta.

Dearest Lil Duval *updated*,

Dearest Lil Duval,

I haven't been in the Christmas spirit until.....



I saw your HILIARIOUS rendition of "This Christmas".
I didn't know what to expect, but soon as the camera moved from the fireplace to you, I started cracking up.
The Tropicana juice, for one, is HILIARIOUS & that sweater....smh...
Who the hell did you borrow that from? Its hideous.



"Shake a Hand. Shake a Hand Now.." HaHaHa!

PS: I loved the R. Kelly Interview you did a while back for your Nigga Please series.



PPS: I found out who let you borrow that sweater...ROFLMAO.

Dearest Muffy,

Dearest Muffy,

F.I.N.A.L.L.Y.!!!!!!!!



A visual to one of my FAVORITE underground songs.
Ever since I have been introduced to ATL's underground music scene,
which has been some YEARS now, I have been a fan of yours.
I love your style, individuality & creativeness.
I tried a while back to introduce you to these bitches, but this time, I think you may have caught they're attention.

"SWEET" is one of the DOPEST songs to me.
[Makes me feel like THEE shit ;)]
The Beat [shout out to BATTERY 5! <== Get Familiar Please.],
the Lyrics...I just LOVE it. There has been many replays of this joint in my ride & now the world gets more of a reason to love it as much as I do.


"...Oh My Kitty, Keep her pretty, so he always visits her...
Scratch his back, he like that, reach into his duffle bag 
hand his kitty kat a stack...
There he goes I'm in love with his money
& he knows so he gives me all his honey...."

A few minutes before I wrote this love note, I stopped by Dimewars & saw something that
kiinnndddaaa irritated me. It was the caption under your video which read,
"Oh Look! A NICKI MINAJ CLONE from ATL!!" & the reason it irritated me...? Because I'm not a fan of Ms. Minaj & these what these hoes fail to realize is that...YOU BEEN HERE!
Don't want to get too emotional, so I'm going to end here.

PS: Ladies [& ALL Gucci Fans], Go ahead & check out Muffy's "Get Em Girls".



I REALLY like this song. Go On Girl!

Happy Birthday to Me




HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Me!!!

& who better than to sing the BDay song to me, than Mrs. B herself...



The Lord has blessed me to see 27 years & I am so thankful.
Life is shorter than you think.
Enjoy it to the fullest. With no regrets.
Live. Laugh. Love.

-Andrina =)
[SAGITTARIUS BITCHESSSS!!!]

PS: Even though I'm only 27, I feel like Garfield...LoL.


Dearest Pleasure P,

Dearest Pleasure P,

...this is a "I Love Hip Hop, but sometimes..." moment.



Usually, I don't write love notes based on a celebritie's business &/or their personal  issues, but since I have been a HUGE fan of yours since I first heard your voice, to hear this kind rumor is dishearting.
I read something about it a few days ago...& ignored it.
But, today, I ran across this video & it kinda hurts my heart.
If you don't ever tell your business...you better believe there's someone out there who will.



Buuutttt, A Child Molester? WoooOoooW.
This reminds me of when I heard about that R. Kelly situation...
I couldn't listen to his music for a lllooonnnggg time b/c I kept thinking each song was dedicated to the little girl[s].
I don't know what kind of advice one can give to another in a situation like this, other than, "Keep ya head up"....I guess.

Despite all this, I had to revisit one of my favorite songs w/ you:
Age Ain't Nothing But A Number when you were w/ Pretty Ricky.
[I just love your voice in this song].

PS: Congratulations on your not 1, not 2, but 3 Grammy nominations. That shit is MAJOR!
