If you didn’t try and access the site earlier today you wouldn’t have noticed, but I’ve been having some major server issues for the past 6 hours or something and it made The Prophet Blog unavailable.
Just wanted to remind everybody to make sure they follow the blog on Twitter @TheProphetBlog so you can be notified if any fuck ups like this happen again in the future.
You can also follow my personal Twitter account @calluout or catch me on Facebook under Jacques TheProphetBlog.

Sorry for doing this, but I needed to get it off my chest because I’ve been really frustrated and stressed out over it, so if you’re interested check under the cut. If not just continue to enjoy the site as you usually do.
Please read it all before you comment though because I think it will help you understand how I’m feeling a lot better. Read more »

Ok so here’s my obligatory holiday post. Merry Christmas blah blah blah yada yada yada, hope you all got lots of presents and enjoyed spending time with your loved ones etc etc.
I don’t know why everyone carries on so much about Christmas anyways, I mean it feels just like any old day to me. I mean I didn’t even know that it was Christmas until yesterday when I went to get some cereal and I had to check the use-by on my milk (which was about to turn) and it said “Dec 24″, so I checked my phone to find out what date it was and then I was like “Fuck, is it Christmas tomorrow?”
Anyways I just thought I’d use this as opportunity to let you know how much I LOVE you guys and appreciate everybody’s support! It means a lot to me that you come here and visit my site and leave your comments etc, so thanks so much for making blogging fun for me. It’s almost been a year since I opened The Prophet Blog and I probably would’ve gotten bored if it wasn’t for you guys, so thanks a million. You mean the world to me!
I know that I cuss most of you out in the comment section from time to time but trust me, it’s all love!

For those of you who don’t know yet I thought I’d just drop a post to tell ya’ll that my girl Toya aka the Rihanna stan is now back in business with a new domain and a new website.
She’s still the same ol’ Toya that you either love or love to hate, the only difference is that the domain name is now spelt with a “Z” instead of an “S”.
Toya is the best urban-pop blogger out and she’s gone above and beyond the call of duty to help me out with my site, so make sure you head over to her site and bookmark her new URL. Seriously if you guys only knew the amount of favours I’ve gotten Toya to do for me this year you’d die.
“Toya it’s Jacques, how do I put ads on my blog? Can you do it for me?”
“Toya it’s me. This thing says to check the footer of my blog, what’s a footer?”
“Toya my banner is crooked, can you log in and change it for me, I didn’t understand your instructions”.
“Toya if I email you my resume can you fix it up for me, I don’t know how to do it myself”.
And so on and so forth.
I’ve been an avid reader of her blog for years and I probably wouldn’t have even made my own one if it wasn’t for her so I owe a lot to Toy-Toy.

Hey everyone. I tried to pull an all nighter last night to finish a major assignment that’s due this afternoon, and I rested my eyes for just a moment…. and fell the fuck asleep! That was then followed by a severe case of sleeping in, so unfortunately there won’t be any updates until late this afternoon. I’ll be too busy hittin’ the books! Or the PowerPoint presentation to be exact.
Just thought I’d let ya know so my inbox and Twitter doesn’t get flooded with “Why haven’t you posted the pictures of Rihanna yawning yet!”

I know a lot of people have been concerned about Toyas-World these past few days, so I thought I’d do a quick post to let you all know happened.
From what I know her domain name failed to auto-renew, and then when the website disappeared some sneaky snake went and bought the name before Toya had a chance to get it back, and now they’re holding onto it and won’t return it.
Toyas-World is probably the biggest urban-pop blog on the net besides Rap-Up, and it was certainly the most popular in terms of comments, often getting more than mega-sites like Perez Hilton. Her blog is definitely my favourite and has been for years now. In fact I wouldn’t even have The Prophet Blog is it wasn’t for Toya.
As you can imagine she’s a little stressed out over losing all her hard work, but she will be back. I dont know when exactly yet, it could be tomorrow it could be a week it could be a month, but she will definitely return at some stage. I’ll definitely let you know when she starts a new site.
You should however follow Toya on Twitter so when things like this do happen you always know what’s going on. @Toyas_World is her address, and while you’re at it follow me to @TheProphetBlog.

Since I moved to my new website I haven’t been doing my weekly Last.fm Top 10 list, mainly because I’ve been lazy, but I was getting a lot of tweets and messages from people wanting me to bring it back so here it is.
This is my most listened to songs and artists of the past 7 days, as judged by my Last.fm account that reads all the music I play on my computer.
Top 5 Artists 1. Keyshia Cole
2. Jennifer Lopez
3. Melanie Fiona
4. Mariah Carey
5. Kid Cudi
Top 5 Songs 1. Jennifer Lopez Feat Pitbull – Fresh Out The Oven
2. Allison Ireheta – Friday I’ll Be Over You
3. Teairra Mari Feat Gucci Mane & Soulja Boy – Sponsor
4. Mariah Carey -Sky Diving
5. Angie Stone – I Ain’t Hearin’ You
There wasn’t any particular reason that I’ve been playing my gir Keyshia, I just love her and often go through stages where I have her records on repeat. I listened to a lot of Jlo though because her new single made me start listening to some of my old Jenny faves, like Brave, Rebirth, and This Is Me… Then.
I’ve also listened to that Mariah/Timbaland Skydiving joint a lot. I really wish she had used some different producers on Memoirs…!

As you probably know by now I was deleted from blogger again, but this time they blocked my old address forever. It doesn’t matter though because I’m back with my own website now so I’m not going anywhere ever again. I can do whatever I want without fear of blogger deleting my posts or shutting me down.
What you can see now is just the early version of my website, and hopefully if everything goes as planned you should notice me adding things and fixing it up over the next few weeks.
Thanks to everybody for their support and concern when I went missing! All I ask of you guys is to send my blog link around, re-tweet it, the whole nine yards, because I’m now starting from scratch again and have now lost a HUGE chunk of my traffic. I can’t even re-direct people to the new site because blogger won’t let me register the old address. It’s a mess.
Anyways I want to see lots of comments and lots of shameless promotion ok? That isn’t a joke! And drop me comments now and throughout the week telling me what you want me to fix with the layout, font, colours, and all that stuff because now that I have my own website I have the power to do all that. Just remember though that what you’re seeing now is the early version that I put together today with my amazing friends at the C.S Perspective.
Thanks once again everyone! I appreciate your support so much xox. I’m so damn tired, it’s 3am here and I’ve been working on this since 9am! Lovin’ you long time!
