Chester French is featured in a spread in the Vogue January issue which is on newstands now. If you're not familiar with them, they are a duo that are on The Neptunes Star Trak label. I had blogged about them back in February. They had catchy track "She Loves Everybody" which got alot of spins on my iPod. This spread looks pretty cool. It's nice to see Vogue expanding a bit and allowing up and coming musicians to get a little shine.

This year was definitely the Year Of The Gentleman. Alot of artists decided to put away the casual gear for a more sexier and grown up look. Artists like Ne-Yo; Chris Brown and Jay-Z decided to pick up a (bow) tie and blazer a time or two. Fellas, here are a few pieces to achieve and preserve (in my P. Diddy voice) your sexy.

Kanye West has been receiving alot of honors lately. Rolling Stone Magazine has named him top male artist for 2009. Taylor Swift is named top female artist for 2009 from Rolling Stone as well.
Also, Kanye's got even more reason to shout (in a good way of course...sorry I can't resist). Entertainment Weekly, has named his 2004 debut album The College Dropout number one in their Top 10 Albums of The Decade category. Kanye took to his blog to comment on the honor:
"WOW... THIS IS REALLY FLATTERING... I'VE HAD SOME UPS AND DOWNS THIS YEAR, WELL ACTUALLY THIS DECADE. JUST SEEING THIS COVER TAKES ME BACK TO THAT TIME OF MY LIFE. I REMEMBER HOW MUCH PAIN AND LOVE WENT INTO THIS ALBUM. NO ONE SAW IT COMING. THIS PROJECT WASN'T ABOUT ME, IT WAS ABOUT A TIME IN PEOPLES LIVES WHERE PEOPLE FORCE OPINIONS ON YOU AND YOU HAVE TO MAKE CHOICES FOR YOURSELF. WE LOVED 50 CENT BUT WE WANTED TO BE THE YANG. WE WANTED TO WEAR PINK POLOS AND RAP ABOUT BEING HURT INSTEAD BEING INVINCIBLE. THERE WAS A CORE GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO WORKED ON THIS ALBUM EVERYDAY.... PLAIN PAT, JOHN MONOPOLY, DON CRAWLEY, ANTHONY KILHOFFER, MANNY MARROQUIN, JOHN LEGEND, DEVON HARRIS, RYHMEFEST, GEE ROBERSON, HIP HOP, AL BRANCH, DAMON DASH, GABE TESORIERO, CRAIG BAUER, GLC, OL' SCHOOL ICE GREE, CONSEQUENCE, B NICE AND MY MOM. I WAS MOST INSPIRED BY THE MISEDUCATION OF LAURYN HILL AND I LISTENED TO THAT ALBUM EVERYDAY WHILE WORKING ON MY DEBUT. THANK YOU FOR THIS ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND FOR PUTTING "THE BLUEPRINT" ON THE LIST ALSO. I LOVED "THE LOVE BELOW' AND "GET RICH OR DIE TRYING" ALSO. THEY BOTH EQUALLY DESERVED THE NUMBER ONE SPOT IN MY EYES BUT THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE NUMBER ONE!!!"
There's no denying his talent and passion for music. Congrats on his honors.

While we're on the Sean John kick, I found a great Cyber Monday sale item. This practical, yet very rarely seen bubble leather jacket was $600 and is now $299.99. You can't beat that! Click here for more info.

Well look has made their way to the Home Shopping Network. Starting tonite at 11pm, Diddy will make an appearance on HSN. Diddy will be selling the Unforgivable and I Am King fragrances. Don't expected his appearance to be a buy my sh*t type of ranting. We all know when it comes to Diddy, there's no half-stepping on his ventures. He will be interviewed in a talk-show-like format on a specially built set.
On a side note: I purchased the Unforgivable Woman fragrance and it has been one of the best fragrances I've bought in a long time. It's such a light scent and it lasts ALL day. Nope, I didn't get paid to say this...LOL. It's just a little testimonial if you're interested.

I was watching The Wendy Williams Show today and I happen to catch the very sexy actor Morris Chestnut as her guest. He's such a talented actor as well. Unfortunately, he's taken ladies. He's been married for over a decade. We can still look and not touch though. He's in a new show on ABC called V which you can watch Tuesdays at 8/7c.

This is a great way to start off MenStyle Monday. Wale, Drake and Kid Cudi are featured in the GQ Magazine's Man of the Year issue. This issue hits newstands next month. These are three dope talents that should definitely get recognized.
