NYE 2008 | Chrisette Michele at Sonar

Thank you Bilal Ali Productions for bringing Chrisette Michele to Baltimore! Chrisette is one of my absolute favs and she's ringing in the New Year in Charm City.

She'll be at Sonar (407 E. Saratoga St.). Never been there so venture for yourself...but Chrisette will be there!!!

New Year's Eve in Baltimore | Club Taste | Vin

So you want to celebrate your New Year's in style? Well...for our 18 and over crew, The Flyy Society has something for you at Club Taste (4314 Curtis Ave.). This party is the cheapest I've seen on NYE with ladies in FREE before 11 PM. That means everybody and their mother's brother will be in the building so get there early. Fellas are $10 before 11.

Oh yea, they'll be popped bottles because a bottle of Mo is only $90. Have fun kiddies!

------------------------------------------------

And one of my biggest fans, AJ along with RS Entertainment are celebrating New Year's on the East side at Vin (One E. Joppa Rd.)

With DJ P Drama (I heard he keeps the party poppin') and only $25 to get in the door (if you get tickets in advance) RS Ent. promises a G&S time (that's grown and sexy for those who don't know).

Kool Kidz Appreciate You at Eden's Lounge

One of our favorites, The Kool Kidz wants to appreciate us! At Eden's Lounge (15 W. Eager St) extend that Holiday spirit by partying with Floyd, Kian and S. Breezey.

Their last party at Red Maple was packed and off the chain so make sure you get their early...especially if you want to get your drink without spilling it.

Go to Eden's, Thursday night after 10:30 PM.

Oh yea, the password is: The Kool Kidz.

Recap: Christmas Eve at Red Maple

Tis the season to be jolly... and there were definitely A LOT of jolly people in Red Maple (930 N Charles Street) last night for the "The Gift" presented by The Kool Kidz.

Although the party was called "The Gift" and gift bags were seen, I received no gift...except maybe the free sample sitting on the table. How am I supposed to re-gift that?? ;)

Maybe I missed the gift-giving because I was too busy jamming to DJ Lil' Mic on the 1's and 2's (Thanks for the shout out! Fab Empire all day baby)

Champagne poppin', wine tasting, and liquor spilling! This party was definitely a success! The club was packed to capacity but most people didn't seem to mind. Maybe it was the Christmas spirit! Speaking of Christmas spirit, I think I saw chestnuts roasting on the open fire that kept the place too toasty. (Somebody open a window!)

The hood dudes didn't look so hood thanks to Sean Breeze's strict dress code. But there are always a few who slip through the cracks (see not Fab! below)

If you missed it...Here are the highlights!

Red Maple was ready for Christmas with their decorations...peep the garland, wreath and the lights.

Peep the fireplace! Bump grown, that's just plain sexy!

Um....Chinkilla' was not Fab!

Fab! Chick got Fab!

Euro got Fab!

NYFab! Girl stays Fab!

Merry Christmas y'all!

Saturday at Xanadu | Sunday at Red Maple

So everyone is getting in the holiday spirit around Baltimore and Xanadu (10. S Calvert St) on Saturday is no different. With Konan and KIS hosting, they have over $1000 (A G?!) in cash and prizes. I know that's right! You can easily get a gift here and re-gift it and give it to someone else...

They are also giving away free kisses (uhhhh) from KIS Models...I'm sorry but with diseases and sickness going around this winter season this may not be the best idea...sounds like too many fluids.

-------------------------------------------------

Speaking of re-gifting, The Kool Kidz presents "The Gift" at Red Maple (930 N Charles Street ) on Sunday night, Dec. 23.

They'll be giving out Sean Jean Unforgivable (has anyone smelled this?! Does it smell good??) to all the ladies. I'll take three; one for me, my momma and my sis!! ;) Thanks Floyd!

Oh yea...beware, they have a dress code that leaves even me confused. Just be really, really fly...or email Sean Breeze ;)

R.I.P. Lil Mama's mom | Tyra Kirkland

The Fab Family has to send prayers up for Lil Mama, who was recently interviewed by Fab correspondent, Kim Wilson (click here to read). Lil Mama, whose real name is Niatia Kirkland suffered the loss of her mother, Tyra.

Her mother was diagnosed with cancer in 2003 and lost that battle last Saturday while Lil Mama was performing in Atlanta. When she recieved news of her mother's passing, she returned to NY to be with her family.

Peace and blessings to you, Lil Mama and your family.

Recap: Saturday Nights at Xanadu

Most normal people were deterred by the wind and the rain Saturday night. But a few of us crazy partyers still wanted to go out. I was at Xanadu (10 S. Calvert Street) celebrating my friend Adriene's birthday.

I must say, Xanadu needs to do a little bit more than stringing some old Christmas lights on the railing to get in the Holiday spirit, but DJ Rod Madd-Flava and Nikki from 92Q did a great job getting people in the mood.

The drinks are strong and EXPENSIVE ($14 for my beloved apple martini!) but at least when you left you were warm enough that the rain didn't bother you.

VIP areas offer bottle service.

With many flat screen TVs, this place is great for watching the game...
(not saying anyone wants to watch the Ravens play...they suck!)

Peep the dingy Christmas lights on the right side...

Your girl with Conan from 92Q!

Your girl with DJ Rod Madd-Flava
("I'm in the booth taking pictures with the DJ!")

Going Out? Xanadu Thursdays | Eden's Lounge

If you're crazy and want to go out tonight (it's really too cold for all of this but whatever) then head down to Xanadu (10 S. Calvert Street). Ladies in free before 11 and they have drink specials...although the bartenders be rude in there (at least that's what a source told me!)

---------------------------------------------------------

And one of my favorites, Eden's Lounge (15 W. Eager Street) is hosting the 2nd Annual Toy Clothing and Food Drive. To get in you must bring a toy, clothing (new only) and non-perishable food items. All donations will go to A Place for Children & Social Service Administration. That's wassup!

Oh yea, get there early this event only lasts until 9 PM. People gotta' work in the morning.

BmoreFab Exclusive: An Interview with Lil Mama

Baltimore was “poppin” Sunday night as Lil' Mama blazed the stage of the Up Close & Personal Tour featuring Chris Brown
an exclusive interview by Fab Correspondent, Kim Wilson

Fab Correspondent, Kim sitting down with Lil Mama backstage

18 year old, Lil’ Mama sat down with our Fab correspondent, Kim before the show in Baltimore to discuss her upcoming album, Voice of the Young People (due in stores 2008), her musical influences growing up in New York (Brooklyn & Harlem) and her desire to express female empowerment through her lyrics.

“My music is basically just giving my opinion on how I look at the way we [women] should move about in life. Period...whatever happened to it just being about you? Whatever happened to it being about being ambitious and being positive and going out getting your own money and not even worrying about a man? If you want a man later on, if you choose to have him that’s your choice. If there are women out there that agree with me, they are going to get into my music and feel me.”

Lil Mama’s aggressive feminine energy was obvious as she tore up the stage, shouting “Mac/Mac LoReal, YUP cause I’m worth it/…WHAT YOU KNOW BOUT ME?!”

Additional performances from the evening included Shop Boyz, Hurricane Chris, Grammy nominated Souljah Boy and the crowd favorite Chris Brown.

Unfortunately, Bow Wow was not on this tour date after being rushed to the hospital as a result of an appendix infection. Maybe we’ll catch him when the tour comes back to the DC area on the 22nd!

RECAP: 92Q's Baltimore's Next HOT Model

Earlier this week, Abimola Kusimo (the one with the two-toned 'fro) won the title of Baltimore's Next Hot Model. Is anyone else thinking what I'm thinking?...yea, she not cute.

Recap: Eye Candy

This party should have been called, "The Kool Kidz Present:Equal Opportunity Ballin'" because The Kool Kidz attempted to make everyone a baller at their party Eye Candy.

Complete with video vixens like Gloria Velez, football players and discounted White Star Moet ($75 a bottle), this party gave every broke down or just plain broke negro and opportunity to stunt.

The only person who wasn't ballin' like the rest of them was the DJ but otherwise this party seemed like a winner. Pics below:

Not ballin'.

Recap: Lights Out at Eden's Lounge

DCFab! Girl here: I forgot about the Light's Out party in Baltimore when I ended up at Eden's Lounge (15 West Eager St.) last Thursday...I actually went to chill with my cousins and have some drinks after a long funeral...We enjoyed each other's company in the back lounge area while watching the game.

I've decided Eden's is the perfect place to come with many friends, to have martini's (especially if you come during happy hour because drinks are two for one) and relax! The music was way off the entire night and...

I don't even want to mention the fashion show...I don't even know if I can call that fashion, more like a show. Everyone had on wife beaters and jeans...I guess the fashion was left to the imagination.

Paparazzi gon' get you...I'm in the yellow.




Sean Breeze was in the building.


Mike Love, is that you?
