A couple months back your favorite dope bitches took part in a photo shoot in Miami’s Design District for Wordintown.com. It was a super hot day and the SPF was definitely on deck and we posed in the sun. We were styled by the talented Andrea who used her own accessories with our wardrobe and handmade jewelry for a couple dope looks. After much deliberating and a written interview, here is the final product! We are really happy with the way the photos came out- the distinctive Miami backdrop really set things off. The interview gives some insight into who we are, where we come from, and where we’re going. Check it out ! Thanks to Jose at Wordintown and Dro of The305.com !!

 

Head over to  Wordintown.com for the full interview and more photos !

The video for Asher Roth and Nottz Raw‘s single “Enforce The Law” which by the way got rave reviews from Hot 97′s Rosenberg Radio, shows Nottz as Denzel Washington‘s character in the cult-classic movie Training day and Asher as fine ass Ethan Hawke‘s sidekick character.

This song has been on my playlist since I heard it. I even did a review of the Rawth EP, check it out here. I urge you to listen to this FREE EP if you haven’t already !

New album from Miami local Glocky Davis “Split Stuff Smoke Repeat” just dropped and on the perfect day for such an occasion. His music is so chill I can’t get enough of it. Honestly, it’s a little crazy and undeniable- this dude has talent and an ear for old-school melodies. Dope samples, great production and even great graphic design (@Above_Avrge ) on this album.

Download this DOPE album here, zone out and chillllllll :)

And jam out a lil bit if you’re at work like me and can’t download anything just yet:

Oh! One time for GOGO too with The Best Kept Secret:

Ahh , the Photoshop of the past. These famous pin-up drawings are both collectible and fun to look, used as tattoos , posters , lighters , and art of all kinds. The women depicted in them undeniably adorable and sexy in an innocent manner. Women posing in all kinds of naturally teasing positions make them they seem incredibly life-like . It makes you wonder? Is it a real model they are depicting?

Well wonder no more ! Because the homies at Buzzfeed gave us an insight into the reality and the women behind the pin-up drawings. Yeah maybe they weren’t as pretty , and yeah maybe those small waists didn’t actually exist , but the artist definitely had all the perverted talent and imagination to bring a “plain” model to beautiful perfection. Check out the pictures below for some pin-up drawings before and after , it’s actually a bit shocking to see what they exaggerated and added to enhance the beauty of the image.

If I didn’t know better, I might have died and landed in heaven – whew.

Today is the birthday of Pharrell Williams – performer,producer,designer,artist, and all around fine man.

He turns 38 today but by his looks and lifestyle you would have never guessed it. Us girls over here at 2DB wanna give the N.E.R.D. front many and Virgina-native a big ol’ birthday cyber kiss and hug for his bornday.

Enjoy some great Pharrell videos. He is truly amazing and gifted man!

I want you guys to watch this video- Kelly Rowland‘s first track off her third album. The song is called “Motivation” and features Lil Wayne adding his star power to assist her views/sales.

Now I know not everyone will agree with me- I generally have to argue my points anyway- but I DO NOT LIKE THIS VIDEO / SONG. I feel like Kelly is trying SO HARD to be sexy, with her overtly sexual lyrics, more than half-nakedness and that weird, half horny half high look on her face throughout the entire video.

I could go on and on about mainstream media and it’s impression on the youth and blah blah blah but for now let’s just say this video is not winning. Remember when Mya tried to come back with her song “Lock U Down” featuring Lil Wayne? NO? It didn’t work and I have a feeling this won’/t work for the former Destiny’s Child either.

Yeah Im late , so and what , what are you going to do about it ? Aja’s birthday was about 2 weeks ago but we decided to celebrate it a little different this year. 80′S PARTY STYLE! (or our version of 80′s at least). Grand Central had a totally dope party they held called “VALLEY GIRL: 80′s Homage” and the place was decorated like a classic 80′s prom. Ballons, Ray-Ban Replica’s and all. They had great 80′s music playing all night and we’re talkin Tears for Fear and all the goodies , near the end they even brough it back to 2011 and played some hip-hop and our boys taugh us how to dougie. Anyways heres a few flicks from the night. Why werent you there? Who knows. But Youve got to join our movement cause we love to entertain. Enjoy !

Lykke Li has been quietly infiltrating our minds with her eerie voice and lyrical styling, and has been sampled by countless rappers because no one can get enough of this lady! I include myself in that statement- I have loved her ever since I heard her on my MGMT Pandora radio station.

Making her presence even more known and adored, Lykke Li is now ON THE MOON – here is the video of her performing the lead single “I Follow Rivers” off her latest offering Wounded Rhymes. I really love the 1950/60′s feel of her outfit, instrument set-up all set in black and white.

If you like what you hear, buy her album !

Coolest tree

This past Friday night your favorite 2dopebitches did the normal Miami thang- house party at a random and humongous house in South Miami , the Miller House, then hitting our local watering hole, BAR, for a chill night with super cool people.

The house party was held because there was a music video being shot for the band, The Coyotes , friends of a friend. We missed most of the shooting but did catch them recording the drummer playing in the bathroom. We took some pretty nice flicks of a beer bong made of a pool noodle and a funnel, an oddly-shaped dog, a kick-ass tree and some nice house-wares. Enjoy.

I don’t know about you but this freaks me out (I have a phobia of worms :/ )

Nice fridge slogan / drawings

The oldest oven I’ve ever seen in person

New friend Dani and the roommate Hallie from HotDamn!

Norma’s awesome Tom’s boots
