Scandal: Is Forever 21 Pinching Pennies?

Retail outlet Forever 21 has had their share of law suits over the years. Numerous fashion designers have sued the company for copyright infringement over the years, as the brand is known for creating knock offs of high-end designs.

However, the recent lawsuit is a tad different. As reported by JustLuxe.com and The Daily Business Review (as posted on Thelaw.com,) the company is being sued by a customer who says the company is scamming customers a penny at a time.

Lawyer Caroline Kellman claims that she bought a pair of shorts from the retailer on May 12 for $14.46, but when she went to return the shorts, the company shorted her a penny, returning only $14.45. But the same thing had happened to her in the past. She was shorted a penny the previous July when she only received $11.56 for a skirt she returned that cost $11.57.

Kellman believes the company is engaging in what she calls a “Penny Pinching Scheme.”

As crazy as this sounds, it could turn out to be a major lawsuit!

From DBR:

“The lawsuit, which accuses the retailer of a "penny-skimming scheme," seeks class-action status for two groups — anyone who has been charged 1 cent more and anyone refunded 1 cent less by Forever 21 in the past five years. The $15,000 threshold for civil actions in Miami-Dade Circuit Court translates to 1.5 million pennies, or at least 750,000 customers making and returning purchases since 2007.”

So is the outlet up to no-good, or is this a crazy waste of time?

Music Monday: Sullee J Voice of the People

Here's a thought provoking new music video from Sullee J out of Baltimore. I video opens with Charlie Chaplin's final speech from The Dictator.  In between we see clips of Sullee rapping, and talking to children about what they want to be when they grow up.

The final scene with George Carlin is so fitting with the theme of the Presidential election.

Ladies: Men in Make-up, cool or a NO GO?

I  just submitted an article for CherryonTop.com about a report about men increasingly shopping for grooming supplies and cosmetic.

While I can appreciate a guy taking pride in his appearance, I could never get a with a dude, who had as many beauty products as I do. If I wanted to be with a woman, I would be a lesbian! 

I don't want to see a man with hair as long as mine. I don't think I could ever be with a guy who wore tinted moisturizer, owned clay face masks or who put on concealer. 

I know I might sound closed minded, but it is what is. If men want to wear concealer and broner, fine. They have the right to do so. I just find it to too girly for me. 

Ladies, what are your thoughts on men in make-up?

Last year Bronx Rap Group teamed up with Baltimore Rapper Sullee J on "Hard Times" featuring PreZZure. The song was part of Par-City's #FeatureFridays Series and also part of their Civilized Session Vol. 1.

This time around GiF of Par-City dropped a verse on Sullee J's latest track "W.T.F. (Where's the Faith)."



Sullee J came together with GIF of Par City produced by sound magician GreezyDub to pose
the question to the masses ‘’ Where the faith?’’ It is a call to the people of the world whether
young or old, black or white, Muslim or Christian to unite and keep faith in God no matter
how arduous the journey in life may be.

Dope Cover: Baiyu Covers Demi Lovato Give Your Heart Your A Break


I am so excited that Baiyu is back to doing covers again!! She used to do them all the time, and she took a break for a minute. Don't get my wrong, I *LOVE* her original music, but she puts new spins on good songs (and more than once I found myself loving her version of a song I previously hated!)

Here, Baiyu is covering Demi Lavato's "Give Your Heart a Break." Baiyu seems to have slowed the tempo down a tad (or maybe I'm used to a different version, as KTU is THE ONLY thing I hear at work). This was the first time I was actually able to understand most of the lyrics!
