Sometimes things were done better in the past than in
the present. This Source Swimsuit issue struck the
perfect balance of representing a real woman with
curves but also someone who looks like they
should be modeling.

exclusively styled Bria in her upcoming SHOW

Here's an interesting quote from Ms. Ford: "Most
people aren't interested in knowing all of the layers
that make me. I feel like I need to get super skinny
to be looked at like a different person." Yeah, I
think she might have taken that
too
far.

Let me apologize in advance to you
Miss Koi purist out there -
this is not the best photo in the world. It's
soft on focus, but I still thought it was worth
posting, as women that look like this are worth
it even when the photo is not perfect.

Check out the

also includes a fine model named Suni. I've been
a fan of
Sasha Shelton since she
appeared in KING magazine a year ago. (NOTE:
Movie will take a minute or so to load because
it’s high quality, during which time you may see
a Quicktime logo. Recommended for broadband
users only.)

Aspiring models take note: when you take a shot like
this, looking this good, you've arrived.
This Melyssa Ford, appearing in the
Winter 2002 Swimsuit Special of BlackMen, has yet to
be eclipsed in the urban market. This is the top of
the game. I should add that this photo is very
difficult to find in high res on the net (click to

They still don’t seem to be able to get this girl’s
face right, in terms of hair and make-up. One day
someone will nail it.
Note: Smooth needs to hire better retouchers
(or re-hire the one the laid off), because the morph
on the cover with Maliah and on Solei’s waist in this
shot is fairly obvious and has been commented on by
several viewers.

It's no secret
Maliah Michel is one of my
favorite models (she was number 9 on my list of
Top 10 Urban
Models), and apparently she's one of Sandy's
favs as well, since this is the
second
time she's been on the cover of
Smooth Magazine. There's a
bunch of great pictures of her in this issue and
she also did an editorial piece in it, similar
to the type Melyssa Ford and Esther have done in
the past in Smooth. The subject matter is how to
be a good stripper, which is a little strange. I
guess Smooth figures there's no mystery about
the fact that a lot fo urban models strip, so
they might as well get someone knowledgeble to
drop some science about it.
Anyway, if you like Maliah this issue is a must have.
There's a number of pics that I didn't scan (just
being lazy) so definitely check it out. I'm sure
BlackJackSkanz will give this
a much better treatment once he gets it. In the
meantime, enjoy some Maliah.

Love this guy's artwork. Check out his
website. Kinda reminds me of
Rion Vernon, but with more
lushness and curves to his work. (BTW, that
Solei on the left and Brenda Lynn on the right.)

I’ve been following
Tiffany Hines career now for
about two years, ever since seeing her on The
N’s “
Beyond The Break.” She’s got
that same versatility and cross-over appeal
Gabrielle Union did in her early years. Check
out Tiffany in the upcoming “
Perfect Combination” with
Angell Conwell. *Click to enlarge.

Jacara is one of those models
guys may dismiss as “average” on websites like
RealTalkNY, but she’ll have
the last laugh. In addition to recently gracing
the cover of
Urban Ink, she’s was part of
the
Akademiks ad campaign, has
been on the cover of romance novels,
as well
as being in Smooth Magazine, SHOW and KING.
She’s what you’d call a sleeper. She may not be
packing 45” hips, but she’s steadily building a
career as a working model getting legitimate
jobs that a lot of girls would kill for.

This list isn’t exhaustive, but these are what I see
as the major events in the development of the urban
modeling genre. Click on the

interesting tour through urban modeling history.
(NOTE: You’ll need the latest Quicktime plug-in
and no pop-up blockers to view the video.) Also,
you can pause the Quicktime movie if moves along

For years viewers lusted after
Kellita Smith as she played
Wanda on the "Bernie Mac Show." I met her once
many years ago when I was working on calendar
with black actresses. She's very confident and
just as beautiful in person.

Although it's a stretch to say any one girl is the
lead in Drake's new
"Best I Ever Had" video,
Nikki B appears to get the most face time. Once
again, this is a girl who has been floating

The consensus on the BET Awards Show this year seems
to pretty much be that it sucked, but the one thing
that did stand out in a positive way was
Ms. Dynasty's performance
with Hurricane Chris during the pre-show. On
message boards around the net, guys kept asking
"Who was the girl performing in the Halle Berry
song?" As it turns out, Ms. Dynasty has been
around for a minute. I remember seeing her early
shots with photographer Aldrick Williams and
being impressed. Amazingly, she's got over
100,000 Friends on Myspace.
Seriously, this girl's live performance was better
than a lot of model's rehearsed, professionally
edited music videos performances. If you don't
believe me, you can download the video
here and
see for yourself. As well, check out additional
photos of Ms. Dynasty at
BlackJackSkanz
