Atlanta Hawks vs. Toronto Raptors

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

This Friday April 9th, the Atlanta Hawks are playing the Toronto Raptors at the Philips Arena in Atlanta, GA.  The Atlanta Hawks are a professional basketball team based in Atlanta, Georgia that plays all of their home games at the Philips Arena.  The Hawks franchise was created in 1946 as the NBA’s Buffalo Bison’s, then later named the Tri-Cities Blackhawks and in 1968 they were sold to a duo of wealthy businessmen in Atlanta where they then received their new name, the Atlanta Hawks. 

Currently the Hawks are ranked number eighth overall in the NBA.  This Friday the Hawks host the Toronto Raptors in a game that means a lot to the players and the fans.  Each game they win brings them closer to the playoffs, which is obviously what every team wants.   This game is looking like a win for the Hawks; The Raptors are ranked number 21 overall so the Hawks are more than 10 ranks ahead of them. 

If you’ve never been to a Hawks game, Friday’s game would be a great first!  Not only is the team is doing well but the fans are pumped and excited to see the two teams face off.  For ticket info or questions go to NBA.com/Hawks

April 2nd, Trey Songz will be performing at Georgia State University as part of his 2010 tour.  Since his debut in 2005, Trey Songz has boomed into the Hip Hop and the R&B world, and is one of today’s most popular artists.  His two hottest singles today are Successful, and Say Aah, which both are top ten singles.

Trey’s third and current album, Ready is his most successful yet.  Ready is a change from Trey’s previous albums, and is full of collaborations with producers including Eric Hudson, Sean Garrett, Soul Keys, and Troy Taylor.  Trey was looking towards improvement and change, and wanted to be able to relate to the Hip Hop fans as well as the R&B fans.  He says, “With every move you make you have something to prove.  There is always room for improvement.  I’m growing, as a person, as an artist, and as a man……I’m changing as a person and the music is better for it.”

If you aren’t attending this concert at Georgia State University, you should definitely consider going, and do not miss out.  For questions and ticket info, visit http://www.TicketMaster.com and be sure to enjoy the show!

“Don’t Be Tardy for the Party”

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Out of all the celebrities that have come from Atlanta, the most recently famous or…infamous are the five lovely ladies of  The Real Housewives of Atlanta.  With the booming popularity of reality television shows, we have all heard something or another of the scandalous lives of these powerful women of Atlanta.

The Real Housewives of ATL is a reality TV series on Bravo that premiered during Fall 2008.  Even though Atlanta was the third series to premiere in the Real Housewives franchise, it has not only been the most popular of the series, but also the most watched on Bravo.  The show is ultimately about the dramatic lives of five powerful women who live in the metropolitan area of Atlanta.

From designing their own clothing lines, to raising children, to writing books,  to multimillion dollar divorce settlements, I think it’s safe to say that these five women have extremely busy lives.

If you have heard anything about the lives of the Atlanta housewives,  I’m almost positive it is either the cat fights between the women, or maybe even Kim Zolciak’s attempt at becoming a professional singer through her single “Don’t be Tardy for the Party”, but instead deciding to design her own hairpieces which sell for over $400.00 dollars a PIECE.

But does it really matter what we think about these five women?  Obviously they are doing something right to keep us (their viewers) intrigued.  So please ladies, keep the cat fights coming!
