IF U MISSED IT: Watch Jay-Z, Beyonce, Rihanna, Kanye West, and Santogold Perform At Madison Square Garden LIVE 9/11




Jay-Z's concerts are always so layed back. He has his DJ, and himself. Usually walking back and forth spitting rhymes, moving his shoulders to some odd inaudible chord in the instrumental, whilst ushering out various featured artists. His September 11th Charity concert, dubbed "Answer The Call" was no different. It featured cameo's by Rihanna and Kanye West in "Run This Town", Santogold in "Brooklyn (Go Hard), Bridget Kelly in "Empire State of Mind", former def-jam recording artist--> and my twitter crush Constance Howard, Mary J. Blige in a throwback Reasonable Doubt to ensemble, and of course, a short surprise performance by his Mrs. Jay-Z herself, Beyonce Knowles.

His concert was great as always, although I did cringe when Mary J. Blige went gangster and started singing her new single "I'm The One". I thought she was about to pull out a gat and start shootin in the air.Thankfully she just grabbed her crotch a few times. The Run This Town performance was nice and easy, Rihanna sang in a leather leotard getup with faux bullets around her waist. She also premiered her new blonde extensions. In the end, the short Beyonce performance was most exciting for me-- love the little get down at the end, 1:30 seconds.

Had TO POST THIS PIC OF BEYONCE'S MOMMA THROWIN' THE ROC SIGN LAST NIGHT SO FUNNY. Leave her alone!

To Yeezy, Or Not To Yeezy? That is The Question.



To Yeezy, is to be $140 dollars closer to poor. Not to Yeezy, is to have $140 extra bucks in the bank.

Let's be honest, the Kanye West designed Nike Air Yeezy aren't the best looking shoes on the block. They look over padded, and lack the overall balance that the most popular and reliable Mid/high-top footwear models perfect--The Air Force 1, Nike Supra, and Air Jordan models. The Air Yeezy's are not great B-Ball shoes, but um... who wears B-balls shoes for the game anyway?

Here's a good review -

House Shoes/Slippers/Slides/Or Whatever Floats Your Boat

Although I'm sure most of us aren't yet walking out to our Mailboxes at 7 o clock in the morning in Pink robes and bunny slippers while waving to our neighbors and embracing their chicklet smiles, it's definitely a nice feeling to be completely comfortable in our own dwelling.

I find that many of us young bucks don't even own a good pair of slippers. Now, I'm not talking about Havaianas, or any other type of flimsy flip flop, I'm talking about good old comfy bedroom slippers.

Yes, trusty brands are still designing them, and they are quite fashionable. So if you're looking for a suttle way to impress that girl/guy once you get them in the crib, throw on some of these and slowly edge your way into chillax mode.

The Dream & Christina Milian Married - Not A Wealthy Look

Or maybe I'm just jealous? Ever since the dip it low video, I have to admit that I get a little wet everytime I see her. Too bad she's hitched.



Inside sources (MTV) report that the pair married over labor day weekend. The first of three of their supposed ceremonies, one in Las Vegas (Probably at Christina's chica relative, Pookie's Pleasure Chapel), The second in Italy, and then again stateside for the family and friends that won't be able to make it to Rome.

(Sounds, pretty lame so far, but whatever)

For the past few months, The Dream has been spoiling Milian with Hit Flop Singles, like "Us Against The World", an Umbrella knock off, "Elope" and etc. Although I love the songs you be the judge. As said,anything Christina Milian does makes me sweat.

But my thing is, they have only been together a couple of months-- and now they are married. It took Jigga 7 Years to put a ring on it in New York with Beyonce, and even Jennifer Lopez waited a year to marry Marc Anthony after Ojani Noa, Cris Judd, Puff Daddy and Ben Affleck, gave her uterine fibroids through excessive puff-puff passing. So why couldn't they just...wait? Did Christina need a track that bad? I don't think the Dream will be pumping out another Umbrella, or Single Ladies, in a while. So Christina should look into auditioning for The Real Housewives of Atlanta, season three.


Luxury Hilltop Glass Home in Los Angeles,CA

Nothing makes my knees buckle and my teeth grit more than a well built modern home. The modest window placements, ambient lighting, and (in most cases) use of sustainable materials, all seem to scream "This is where you need to be right now!". Who doesn't crave straight lines and hard edges (ahem)? Futurism is a vital requirement in the non-existent Wealthy Kid Book of Ethics.

But alright jetsetters, on to the pad:



Designed by Ray Kappe in Los Angeles,California, oddly, this home was built originally in the 60's. It was later restored to it's glory by architect Michael LaFetra, and is now on the market! it taughts five large bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, a rooftop deck, and an amazing hilltop view of L.A. Most of the home is made of glass so it is difficult to notice the wood and concrete that make up the home's foundations.

The most stunning feature, in my opinion, is the pimp ass pool. It sits on the edge of the hill, and looks as if it is about to spill over into the valley. What wouldn't I give to sit on of those lounges while being fed grapes by three or four LA Babes? Ah, a sweet dream. This home is listed for 4.5 Million dollars. Got the mulah to buy it? Head over to realtor.com

Now, let me know what your idea of a dream home? How do you feel about modern architecture, do ya love it? Or are you still praying for that little house on the prairie. :-/









This Month's WealthyWhizz - Trillian Astra 4.0

Remember when Instant Messaging was the choice form of communication? I can't help but recall my middle school years (ahem) when I couldn't wait to get home to talk to my friends on AIM (AOL Instant Messenger). Very effective way of communication, but using several different IM programs on my computer made it difficult to make good use of either one of them. Hell, 128 MB ram was norm back then, and running AIM,Yahoo, MSN, ICQ, and IRC at the same, was not cute!

Trillian is the most successful fix to that problem, closely followed by it's Mac OS X competitor Adium (<3 Adium). It's newest release not only combines AIM,Windows Live (msn),Yahoo,ICQ,Jabber and etc, it also includes Facebook, Twitter, and text messaging! That's sweet! All in an interface that knocks AIM out of the wind.

However, it comes with a small price tag. $10 and $25 (Depending on how much Cerulean, the developer, likes you). Download the free trial here and see how much you like.

2010 Jaguar XJ - SuperSwagWorthy

I remember when I was really young, around three years old, and my father had a little car detailing gig down in Miami for luxury cars (HEY! Leave my daddy alone! Those things were lucrative in the 90's). He would let me get in all of the cars, lecture me through factory installed devices (like the a compass and temperature in the rear-view mirror, very high tech back then), and talk to me about how I would be driving in one of these one day. Although, all of his blabber meant nothing to me— as the high quality creamy colored leather in early Mercedes, BMW, and Rolls Royces sent me into an an instant slumber. (Sorry Dad, but your lectures sucked).

However, there was one car that intrigued me enough to pay attention. I remember sitting in the back seat feeling on the glossy wooden lap tray, and toying with the fully automatic windows and space age features. The 1994 Jaguar XJ series, was magical to me. I promised myself, that I would own a car just like it one day.



You can only imagine how pleased I was to hear the prestigious jaguar brand had began to revive and update their models. I was very already pleased with the XF, and had made up my mind that it would have to do for (when I get the funds of course), but then they dropped the bomb on me:

Wealthy kids and jetsetters, I now present to you the 2010 Redesigned Jaguar XJ.





Notice how long and strong this car is, the presence is much heavier than the new 7 series with the augmented grill, and bolder than even the critically elusive Mercedes Benz S-Class. Jaguar, has definitely hit the mark in this reinvention. I can't wait to buy one, and get it painted matte gray. It's gonna be mean guys!

Here is a video of The 2010 Jaguar XJ riding through the streets of London, watch the pedestrians double take!




Alright Wealthy Kids, Remember, let me know how you feel about Jaguar's new model, and tootles!
