TYGA Performing In Astronomically-Priced, $4,000 CELINE SUNGLASSES!! WHEW!!

Rapper Tyga is usually known for his ridiculously expensive purchases, like A$AP Rocky. At the BET Awards, Tyga wore a $3,000 leather shirt. NOW.... look at the above picture, he's wearing $4,000 CELINE sunglasses! To somewhat justify, the glasses' temples are solid gold.

Dude had some other solid gold stuff on, but we won't get to that... the glasses is enough for me.

Rapper/Model LOLA MONROE In Hott '90s Throwback Look

Lola Monroe was on the cover of 'SOURCE' Magazine with the likes of Wiz Khalifa, and she looked on her VINTAGE game with her '90s throwback shorts and her nice lil' '70s tunic. Her stilettos are present-day, though.

Like the whole look, it shows off her personal look and swagger; a NICKI MINAJ in the budding?

EVE Goes Crazy Fashionista; Wears BIG WILD HAIR In NYC!

Check out rapper EVE going super fashionista by wearing this crazy big hair that she donned for some fashion show and performance in NYC. Sidenote: I miss her show 'Eve', I still watch it on TV ONE Network.

Anyway, that huge leopard print dress, big hair, and sans-makeup remove Eve far from her rapper persona to the world of supermodel. Hmm... crazy... but I like it.

Rapper ASAP Rocky Rocks Huge BALMAIN Fur Jacket on BET's 106 & Park

FUR is making a comeback.

I have two fur coats, one a rabbit/mink blend, and one a beaver vest. But this one takes the case. I don't know who ASAP Rocky is, but I do now, now that I see this coat. The style may not be for everyone, probably not for me, but it's still BOSS.

The jacket is by BALMAIN (known for astronomically-priced garments), a raccoon-fur leather sleeve jacket for approximately $7,600. Whew. More than the cost of my car.

SWIZZ BEATZ Changes It Up; Goes BALD and Wears Pink Shorts In Hawaii!

It's always interesting to see what rappers do on their off-days. Check out Swizz Beatz, Alicia Keys, and son Egypt on vacation in Hawaii, and you can see Swizz Beatz for yourself...

Swizz has shaved his head bald (but you can see the hair growing back) and is wearing pink shorts. Tryin' to get that whole Hawaiian, tropical vibe huh?

But anyway, it is cool to see a rapper in such a HARD, tough-as-nails environment and being lightyears away into their own 'softer' fashion sense, while still being 'masculine.'

Off-Color Issue: HEAVY D Dies Suddenly (Brief Looks At His Fashion Sense and 'Salvation' Offer)

Heavy D: 1967-2011

Dwight Arrington Myers, better known as Heavy D, an influential rapper of the 1990s, has died suddenly today (November 8) after being found going in and out of consciousness, later passed away at the hospital.

Wow, gone so quick, at the age of 44. Now, I don't know about his status of religion, but it's really important to be certain of WHERE YOU'RE GOING after you leave this earth, 'CUZ YOU NEVER KNOW. It's really important to know Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior. I'm not shoving this down your throat; I'm just saying.

It's better to live as if Jesus is in your life and die finding out that He doesn't exist instead of not living for Him and then dying and finding out He DOES exist.

That's why Jesus made this paraphrased prayer so simple, like an easy ticket to Heaven:

'Dear Father God, I'm choosing to get to know more about you today. I believe Jesus died on the cross for my sins, was buried, is now alive in Heaven, and is soon to come again. Forgive me for my sins. I thank you that I am in RE-BIRTH, I'm born again! Amen!!'

DAAANG!!! How simple is THAT??

But R.I.P. Heavy D!!!
