gotta hear what she said…but if she’s down playing videos then she’s a 2 face. The only video girl that I consider did not get naked or show off her ass in a video and still be successful is Lauren London. Then after her all of them do it for the same thing…”sex sells” theory..

GREAT INTERVIEW. MELYSSA FORD IS SO BEAUTIFUL & SHE DID IT.
SHE HADN’T GOT NAKED LIKE OTHER WOMAN WHICH SHOWS SHE REPECTS HERSELF & MAKES GUYS WANT MORE.
((((SHE WAS RIGHT WHEN SHE TALKED ABOUT MAJORITY OF SONGS JUST BEEING BOUT HOOKS & A BEAT, NO LYRICAL CONTENT))))))) WHO WANNA SPEND MONEY ON A VIDEO FOR THAT.
THAT’S WHY T.I. & JAY-Z, & BUSTA, & EM, & MR WEST (NOT WAYNE) ARE TOPS IN THE GAME.
I’D MARRY THIS WOMAN. SHE ONE OF THEM WOMAN, LIKE WHEN SHE GET OLDER WILL STILL LOOK GOOD, SHE DON’T HAVE MAD SHAPE, BUT BODY, SO STUFF WON’T HANGING & SUCH LIKE IT WILL BE ON THESE OTHER MODELS/VIDEO GIRLS
SHE JUST BE ON HER GRIND. CAN’T HATE ON THAT.
I NEED TO FIND OUT WHERE THEY BE HANGING AT & APPROACH EM.
O THAT LAST LINE SHE SAID THE TIGHT. THAT’S A COOL CHICK RIGHT THERE.

She has no problem flashing her boobs during photosection though. It was a behind the scene video of her taking of her bra laughing when she was there to take some pics. If you don’t show up to do nude scenes then why let the whole camera crew see your titties?

The interview was great. However, $30,000 compared to $1,000,000? With the technology available for anyone to grasp these days, an educated film/video maker can compete with what Hollywood has to offer! You’ve seen the intro to this Real Talk NY video! Heard the effects!? Seen the transitions!?
Remember that movie “The Blair With Project?” You know what their budget was for the movie? $22,000! Know how much they’ve made? $248,639,099 gross revenue as 2008! So, Melyssa Ford, don’t get me wrong, I respect you and your hustle but don’t knock the film/video producers who put out these extraordinary videos, even if they work for a lot of lame industry rappers and their bad management team. Their are a lot of talents out there that create excellent videos with no budget whatsoever. I can chat all day about this but I won’t. Overall, keep up the great work Melyssa Ford. I hope you understand where I’m coming from.
Shout out to Joy Daily and Nigel D. for another great RealTalkNY production. Peace.

$30,000 FOR A RAP VIDEO IS A WASTE OF MONEY ESPECIALLY FOR RAPPERS THAT HAVEN’T ESTABLISHED THEMSELVES PROPERLY.ALL YOU’LL GET IS A POORLY LIGHTED,POORLY EDITED,AND MOST IMPORTANTLY,A POORLY DIRECTED PRODUCT.
INSTEAD,INVEST YOUR $30,000 INTO SOFTWARE,EQUIPMENT,AND LOCAL TALENT.USE YOUR BRAINS FOR ONCE.

Why is she trying to portray an intelligent video girl..at least she tries…
I mean whatever…she still a video chick for me..cause ultimately that’s what her foundation was her physical assets in videos. Like I haven’t seen her blow my mind in a tv series or a movie where I’m like damn she did a great job…none..hence for me video chick.
She put that label on her self…bull shit..stop trying to cover up. If you really wanted to be a journalist or anything within that realm you would of gone the correct route…especially in the hip hop industry, i.e Terrence, Roxy, Big Tigger, Ebro, Free (106&park), BET news Jackie Reed, etc…none of them used showing their ass on camera as a platform, so knock it off. You’re always going to be labeled as a video chick regardless…don’t care how many degrees you have under your belt, that’s the bed you made now lie in it.Period.
*I hate when people try and flash that card”…uuugh! it irks me…especially females. Females can too be successful they may need to work a bit harder, but they can…look at Michelle Obama.Period.
