Sat, 19 Sep 2009 16:04:42 +0100

On September 9th,2009 Bravo TV's The Fashion Show contestant Keith Lissner showcased both his demi-couture and ready-to-wear collection for Spring 2010 at Picture Ray Studios on 18th Street. The collections were showcarsed in a presentaion, sort of like an art exhibition. IT was clear that Keith Lissner's was inspired by India.
Everything from the headdresses to hairstyles, veils, makeup, patterns, and structure screamed India. The spring collection was simple and elegant, whereas the demi-couture collection was a more ethereal look. Lissner's gowns have been worn by Janet Jackson, Natasha Beddingfield, Taryn Manning. just to name a few.
Guest included Derek Warburton, Miss J Alexander, Alex McCord. Alexandra Alexia, and many more.

Ohhhh Miss J!

Miss J, Catwalk Diva Extraordinaire Miss J... uber Fab. Mingled with ~~him~~ at the Keith Lissner Fashion show on 9/9/09. Before even speaking to ~~him~~, I was ready for ~~him~~ to throw some shade my way, but he did not at all. He is absolutely charming, or should I say She IS? We had the opportunity to chit chat a little. Let’s just say Big Things are in the works! :-)

Lin Que X-Clan

Sat, 19 Sep 2009 16:09:44 +0100

Lin Que is a female about her business, and I had the pleasure to work with her this past weekend. She is a phenomenal and professional woman, and an original emcee that speaks about real issues, and not just about the blinged out diamonds. With original beats and meaningful lyrics, I felt like I was cheated out of listing to REAL HIP HOP compared to what I'm listening to now. I had the opportunity to be on set of her new video, and to watch her professionalism was very inspiring. She 's a humble, funny and all around genuine person. If you're in my age group, you probably wouldn't know about her, BUT if you know HIP HOP you would know about Lin Que.

Lin Que is a female hip-hop artist. Lin Que was a member of the hip-hop collective known as the Blackwatch Movement (which included X Clan) as Isis. She released her debut album Rebel Soul while affiliated with X Clan in 1990.

Lin Que left X-Clan to work with MC Lyte. No longer Isis, she rhymed as Lin Que and released a couple of singles for SME Records and Elektra Records. She eventually went into A&R work and graphic design, and she appeared briefly in Spike Lee's He Got Game and Ted Demme's Who's the Man?

She has collaborated with various artists such as Will Downing, Mary J. Blige, Queen Latifah, MC Lyte, Smif-N-Wessun, The Beatnuts, Monifah, Ce Ce Peniston, and more.

She had a brief stint as a member of the Wu-Tang Clan-affiliated group Deadly Venoms. After leaving the group for business reasons shortly after its debut album was recorded and never released, she remained writing and creating music with producers Sugar Al Cayne, Azteknique, and Ayatollah. She has written for MC Lyte and has been producing music as well.

Lin Que released an album called GODspeed in 2007.
