Old School Versus New School Weave: Vivica Fox or Solange???

On Solange's new album, the 22-year-old sings about smoking marijuana and making love on a new Lil Wayne duet. “I am unapologetic; I don’t write about things unless they’re true. I’m a grown-ass woman and I’ve experienced grown-ass things.”

Bet Aunt Viv, recently spotted out shopping (i.e photo-opping - folks in LA don't go out all boofed and bedazzled just to shop) could probably teach Beyonce's mini-me a few more "grown" things.

So the question is, which one's hotter?

Bow Wow & Vivica Fox Kick The Weekend Off Making Noise And Getting Folks All "Stressed Out"

Black Hollywood's own Vivica A. Fox has pled no contest to DUI charges stemming from an incident last March. Meanwhile, rapper Bow Wow is laid up in a hospital for reasons that still have not been revealed.

When cops pulled over the "Two Can Play That Game" actress she was subsequently arrested after failing a series of field sobriety test and blowing above California's legal limit of .08. As TMZ first reported, cops say Vivica A. Fox was "demeaning" and made several racist comments to arresting officers. The situation got so heated, a patrol sergeant had to be called to the scene. The report says Fox called one officer, who is white, a "racist," and that "Fox then burped quite loudly and [the officer] then aborted the test."She was sentenced to three years probation, must pay a fine and enroll in a 90-day alcohol education program.

Meanwhile Bow Wow was rushed to a Cincinnati hospital Thursday night after a performance there. According to a statement issued by his record label, the 20-year-old rapper is suffering from "stress and exhaustion." They also said that although his tour with Chris Brown, Sean Kingston and Soulja Boy is heading to Chicago tonight, Bow Wow won't be on stage. Sorry Chicago fans, you'll just have to catch him next time.

The actress is charged with two misdemeanor DUI counts involving her March 2007 arrest. Giving previous statements about accepting responsiblity for her actions, expect a no contest plea to the charge of driving with a .08 blood-alcohol level.

A Message to Ms. Vivica: Don’t Let the Smooth Taste Fool Ya’

Be Content Black Woman...
You're Allowed

O.K. Ms. Vivica, as it pertains to your most recent DUI arrest - if it's true - I will give you this one. You got caught up.

It can happen to any of us. Girl, take this experience as a wake up call and get a grip!

I have to hand it to you. I know it’s hard out here for a pimp – and hell – everyone else for that matter. But, you are more than this. You made a mistake. We all do, so I’m not about to judge another sister. However, what I am going to do is extend a hand to you in the murky waters of fame and shame.

One of the things I have always admired about you is your ability to get your hustle on. You understand the value of re-inventing yourself and keeping your game tight – although, I don’t know what the hell you were thinking when you hooked up with crazy ass 50 Cents whose more like 5 cents with all his raunchy lyrics…but, I digress.

You are beautiful. No need to state the obvious. You represent Black women well most of the time. If you haven’t yet figured it out, this too shall pass.

This is nothing but a sign that you need to take some time for you. You can afford to do that – no matter what you may think or what anyone else might be telling you or pressuring you to do. There is nothing more important in this world than coming to terms with who one really is.

This fame game can really have your mind turned out. Find a space and a moment and ask for unadulterated spiritual truth and discover the real value of loving yourself for who you are and not merely what your do. Acting is what you do. It’s not who you are. And know that you are always more than your next gig.

Just 2 cents from someone worth a hell of lot more than 50.

Be blessed, girl. You're priceless!
