A MUSIC POST

BOMBS AND BOTTLES
YMG is recuperating from the 'cane so this post is going to be short and sweet. Bombs and Bottles is the sexiest most awesome white boy singer/producer to come from New York in a long time. His stuff is electro and sexual--maybe that's why two of his songs were featured on Showtime's The Real L Word. Bow-wow-wow YMG's favorites are Playing Hard, Venom on Your Lips, and The Game Part I and II. Lastly, Your Main Girl loves a little controversy, that's why she can't get enough of his amateur music video featuring his alma mater, and some townie sluts.

A MUSIC POST: CHERUB

YMG Loves Cherub 
So if you haven't noticed, 80's electropop is making a comeback.  Ellie Goulding and The Weeknd are two electro-pop artists you may have heard on the radio. Thats cool for them I guess but YMG thinks the radio is only good for one thing, and that is SLOWLY AND PAINFULLY KILLING SONGS. With that, your main girl has been searching for the most awesome electro-pop artist out there. Por fin (thats Spanish for "finally"),let YMG introduce you to her favorite electro-pop artist:Cherub, they fu*king rock.

Now listen up,YMG doesn't make music she only listens to it. She can't tell you whats awesome about the "bridge" or why the "drop" is musical genius, but what she can tell you is that Cherub makes the best baby-making music since Marvin Gaye.
The two men you see above who were born and bred in Tennessee (the center of like all music)have one goal:"To share a little bit of sex, a little bit of drugs, and a little bit of love across the globe". Enough said. YMG had to meet Cherub so she sought them out. She met up with them as they djed in the one and only, Lilium in NYC. They were awesome and made YMG do what she does best.....dance. Listen below:

Well, the day has finally come. YMG has found the perfect pre-game drink.

THE NUDIE: AN ART POST

"I'VE NEVER SEEN A PAINTING OF A NAKED WOMAN BEFORE"
"The Pale", 36" x 48", oil on canvas. 2012
Well not like this anyways. The artworks of painter Aaron Nagel, are on show at the exhibit titled Soverign, currently on display at the Lyons Wier Gallery in Chelsea. YMG thinks these paintings are pretty awesome for a number reasons; she will tell you them now. 

YMG doesn't want to state the obvious, but what is depicted here is an array of beautiful naked women. The female form has been drawn and painted and sculpted and collaged and drawn and filmed and drawn and painted throughout the history of fine art. Unlike the art you might have seen when your mom dragged you to The Metropolitan Museum of Art these are modern women. Being from this era Your Main Girl might be biased, but she thinks the female form has only been improving.

7 TRENDS YMG WILL NEVER ROCK

If you really must know: 1. Courtesy of Pintrest, 2. topshop.com 3. Theory, 4. Jeffery Campbell, 5. The Lovely Jessica Alba and Drew Barrymore, 6. Marc by Marc Jacobs, 7. Milly 
  1. "Low socks & Heels", Were Birkenstocks and socks ever really cool? YMG says most definitely NOT. With the exception of knee highs (worn by yours truly), which are obv sexy. YMG would never DARE try this trend no matter how well the socks might match her awesome new Louboutins...now that would just be a huge WASTE of $1,000. 
  2. "The Finger Bracelet",This contraption looks as though it could easily have been pulled right out of 50 Shades.You can now buy this anywhere from Bergdorfs to Claires but no matter WHO is selling or the PRICE YMG says #tackytackytacky. 
  3. "The Silky Pants" Maybe they look cute on an super skinny model..maybe. But unless you want your boss thinking you had a one night stand and ran to work the next day in your pajamas.. these pants need to stay in the bed where they belong. 
  4. YMG will admit at age 13 no matter how much her mother protested that she was "tall enough already", she gave into her peer pressures and bought those lovely Steve Madden "Platforms". Those days are behind us my friends...if YMG is going to be wearing shoes that make her taller than most guys they better be cute and make her legs look DAMN SKINNY
  5. YMG is just so over this whole ombre thing. She has never even tried it because everyone knows roots have always been gross. She gets it you color your hair but you don't have to make it so obvious.YMG does not know who started this trend but it has gotten a little extreme. If you want blonde highlights FINE but get the roots while your at it. 
  6. Marc, YMG is sorry but no she does not want to be carrying a giant and obnoxious colored bag with your name stitched all over it....for the 4th season in a row (cough cough).
  7. "The Peter Pan Collar" hmmm unless you reside in a convent with your loving husband Jesus Christ, Just...no, YMG only wears classic collars.

FALL FASHION 2012

No one on the corner has swagga like Your Main Girl 
This season take a break from the same old jeans, heels, and blouse. YMG knows you work hard for your tiny figure and just because it isn't August doesn't mean you can't bare a little skin. You can do so with a loose skater skirt and that barely there bralette (that YMG officially declares DOES pass off as a shirt). So put on your favorite leather jacket and walk down the street like the bada** we all know you are...YMG will be two steps ahead of you as always.;)

A MUSIC POST

A MUSIC POST*
Last night, Your Main Girl's Main Girl was in an Empire State of Mind when she was able to cop a ticket to the sold out Jay Z concert at the brand new Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Although Sasha Fierce, Aka Beyonce, aka YMG's hero didn't make a cameo appearance, Jay z did not disappoint. He sang hit after chart topping hit and even paused for a few somewhat inspirational speeches. The hazy marijuana smoke contributed  greatly to the shadily good light show that resembled lights you'd find at a rave.Your Main Girl definitely didn't hate it.
As for the Barclays Center, the place is freakin' sick. New home of the Brooklyn Nets, the arena is color coordinated in YMG's favorite color combo, black and white.

Although MSG is little closer for city dwellers, the trip down to Brooklyn to catch a show at the Barclay's is so worth it. With upcoming concerts such as Princess Ri Ri and Lady Gaga, as well as one of YMG MG faves, Swedish House Mafia.You should definitely make the trip to the one and only Brooklyn to see for yourself.See you there!

ART. B*TCH.

Fahamu Pecou Presents:
Irony Irony song link 2012, Acrylic, gold leaf, oil stick and spray paint on canvas
74 x 60 in
YMG is at a loss for words. She has never seen something so bada** in her entire life. Of course simply creating some baaaad art was not the Painter's intention. Why must artists be so complicated? A reviewer writes of the work: "Pecou's sly commentary flirts with the excesses of hip hop idolatry and offers contradictory thoughts and ideas through painting." Well that sounds intellectual and everything but Your Main Girl doesn't really care. She spotted these paintings from across the street and just had to see them up close and personal. Standing at 4ft x 6ft at the Lyons Wier Gallery these paintings are everything your little rich white butt secretly wished you could be.

FALL FASHION 2012 (IT'S IN THE DETAILS)

YMG is the first to admit that the fashion world goes a little crazy at times.You see people pairing together out-of-control outfits that have just a little bit TOO much going on. Honestly who are these people trying to set trends for? Well YMG has decided it is the small details that really make the outfit. So before you pile on your entire box of costume jewelry, remember in fashion, LESS is MORE.

We all know that the big picture isn't always so pretty-- so just remember it's in the details.

BOOBS, AN ACTRESS, AND A PORN STAR

PAINTED BY RICHARD PHILLIPS, Adriana III , 2012, Oil on canvas, 96 x 144 5/8 inches
Your Main Girl took Art History 101 in undergrad and it bored her to death. However, unlike the rest of you who took your required art course and vowed never to visit a museum again YMG knew that the art world had more to offer. You just had to know where to look. 

Let YMG introduce you to Mrs. Adrianna Lima (above). She, and a few other familiar faces (see below) are on display at The Gagosian Gallery in Chelsea. Painted by Richard Phillips, these works stand over 10 ft tall and 15 ft wide. 
You thought that raunchy poster in your college dorm room was badass? Think again.
