MY SONG for AQUARIUS SEASON...



"They say my future was dark, ya see me now? Just Look around...
I'M BEAMING!!!
They Used to talk, when I wasn’t around, You see me now...I"M BEAMING"


"I get my energy from my inner G
I be in outer space, but I got inner peace
So tell my enemies that they can’t injure me
I know that irritates, you have my sympathies
Well, you should protest, yeah, you should picket me
I’m on a losing strike, I’m on a winning streak
I’m out in left field, I’m speaking mentally
But that’s a better places than where the benches be
I’m feelin’ really good, me and different beat
Me and my different drummer, he play the timpanis
See, that’s what got me here, you hearin’ me
Me on my black man in the future shit, call me Billy Dee
See, I’m just forward-looking, that’s how I really see
See, while you Valentimes, I’m thinking Christmas trees
And that’s how this would be, even at Mickey D’s
Semicolon, close parentheses


(Hook)


Do you remember me, the guy from verse one?
Failure’s my last name, Never’s my first one
You see I hood a lot, and yeah I nerd some
Hood’s where the heart is, nerd’s where the words from
Don’t represent either, because I merged them
‘S kids who wanna leave, and I encourage them
Go out and see the world, never return from
Yeah, you don’t come back, unless you learn some
And baby girl, what does it matter where your purse from?
Your hurr done, your nails did, your ass fat, but you’re dumb
Mix Melyssa Ford with Maya Angelou
Become a top model and Sojourner too
I try to follow this, what Muhammad do
It’s such a old soul inside the sonic youth
Swear I’m Ferrari’d up, and I’m conscious, too
I don’t prophesize: I promise you


I don't got any haters or nothing...well not that I know of...but I got some ppl who under estimate, misunderstand and straight think they know me........That's why ya get cut! lol

BLESS UP!

AVATAR...

Due to the tragedy in Haiti...I pretty much forgot to write about Avatar...I watched it about two weeks ago...and really it was a GREAT movie..it lived up to the hype..and all I can say is..if your awake, sleeping or in a coma...the message is write in front of your face! You can't miss it! There are different things you can take from it...mainly the fact that as time goes by we are destroying GODS gifts to us aka Nature more and more...and pretty soon everything is going to be industrial, concrete and machines....it's pretty depressing when you think about that....Also there is the metaphoric factor which is the invasion of the Europeans to pretty much every country that has melanated ppl....the greatest message is the ONENESS of ALL HUMAN BEINGS...how we are truly distant relatives...the TREE of LIFE in the movie displays the connections...of everything living including animals and plant life.....I can literally write a book about the things I got from the movie avatar...so I will spare ya'll with my ranting...I found this one piece online and I thought it was pretty interesting...



LOVE!

RECOGNIZE...

'TILL the SUN Comes UP!



So My Earth Strong is next week (Jan 28th) and I'm going to a party/club on the day of my birthday...and the next day, and pretty much celebrating all weekend...It's going to be mad fun & I'm going to be around all my Sisterines & Bretherins that I absolutely LOVE,LOVE,LOVE...but here's the But...I feel sort of guilty to be partying while there's all this pain & suffering going on in Haiti...I mean I realize there's always suffering going on all over the world...but this past week someone very close to me...that I truly love made a really bad choice & is suffering the consequences for it...I am there for this person...but again I feel guilty going on with my life and having fun.......????

Life has to go on right?
I have organized a charity for the victims of Haiti with a few of my friends...and we're doing really good....the support & donations have been overwhelmingly great!

aaaaaaahhhhh Malaika you really think too much into things...for real for real....stop over analyzing and live your life (me looking in the mirror & telling myself that!)

Well for whatever it's worth....I hope I hear this track in atleast on of the parties I'm going to...



LOVE

So TRUE...

I've loved CURTAINS since he first dropped...this dude has a brain and is using it....



PEACE

ONLY the STRONG Will CONTINUE...

I ain't gotta say much...the first single to drop off of DISTANT RELATIVES...




Now I can't wait for the video to drop...


ONE LOVE

ON a Lighter NOTE...

I know i've been on the doom & gloom with the whole "Haiti" thing.....so I thought I'd bring ya'll some positive posts.....ofcourse having to do with my First Love...MUSIC...

Ok so I'm real late on this...cuz this video/single has been out for a long minute....but oh well it's from my city TORONTO.....so it don't hurt to post it....Plus my dude "SHOW BOAT" aka SHOW STEPHENS is featured in this video.......mind you he is some seeeeeexy chocolate goodness for ya eyez ladies! p.s. I had a big crush on him in highschool lol......but yeah anyway I think Show made the track Hot....He has that smooth ass voice....like Holiday or Neo....with a bit more depth to it.......I love this man's voice yo and a matter of fact I was supposed to collab with him in my rhyming days...got me regreting not pursuing that.....but LUU BREEZE is doing his thang...and it's real nice to hear a "Hiphop Love" track coming outta the screw face capital...the last part of this joint "Gimme that love just gimme that love..." shieeet dope!!! TORONTO!!! I LOVE MY CITY!

CRITICAL Thinking...

Peep the video...this is just one of many evil things going on in the so called Haiti aid...





These are some questions that came to mind...


1. If Haiti was a country that had a population that was majority of caucasion (white) decent, would all of this be happening in terms of the poverty before the earthquake and the lack of help after the earthquake?


2. How hard is it to get a camera and take pics of the dead before burning or burying them?


3. If it was a white child would they be cutting of his leg with a saw and using rusted medical supplies?


4. Why do they show so many dead bodies in Haiti...but have a law in the U.S. not allowing media to show pics/video of casualties in Afghanistan?


5. The doctors that can't get the right medical supplies didn't bring appropriate tools on there way to Haiti? They decide to use the rusty tools that are in Haiti?


6. On "Anderson Cooper" they showed aid workers from the U.S. trying to see if there was a girl alive in the rubble...they only used microphones and dogs to help...Why can't you move the pieces of the building to make sure?Not going above and beyond for coloured folk?


7. They keep talking about looting...have the people who keep talking about looting ever been in the looters shoes? I think not? survival, what would you do?


8. The aid workers/doctors seem to be giving about 50%...so why do these organization who only give about 20% of the money donated to the countries that need it...expect us to donate??? Bush W. was quoted this week saying "forget about clothes and food...just give money!" Trust is an issue ppl!


9. CNN keeps stating that Haiti is the only country that was discovered by slaves...when describing Haiti's history...Why are u even proud to say that America?


10. The media keeps repeating that Haiti is the 4th poorest country in the world and they have been struck with bad luck for most of their history.....so I ask where where you, Obama/Bush/Clinton, United Nations, George Clooney & the rest of ya'll celebrities, CNN etc. etc. BEFORE THE EARTH QUAKE????????????????????????????????????????????

I have many more questions....I just hope these 10 sparked your 3rd Eye!

Peace

AFRIKA MUST WAKE UP...

This is about the homeland that ALL OF US COME FROM...
"AFRIKA must WAKE UP! The Sleeping SONS of JACOB...What tomorrow may bring, May a BETTER day Come, Yesterday We Working..instead you tell the young ones WHO ARE WE TODAY! DISTANT RELATIVES!!!"


The BLACK OASIS, Ancient AFRIKA the SACRED/AWAKEN! the Sleeping Giants,SCIENCE,ART is YOUR CREATION/I wish that we can visit early KEMET, The History is Too Complex and Rigid plus the Western Critics/They want the whole subject diminished! But AFRIKA's the ORIGIN of ALL THE WORLDS RELIGONS!that praise riches that carried us over, the battle fronts on too many soldiers that passed way before us!!!


Can we all PRAY, each in his OWN WAY, TEACHING & LEARNING and WE CAN WORK IT OUT! we love a warm bed, we love some warm bread, shelter from the storm dread and we can work it out...MOTHER NATURE Feeds All...if from the undrought, ain't no selfish in ways not to share us out...what's a TREE Without ROOT...LION Without JUDAH!!!

Who are we today, there's no disease as Aids/We need that all to fade, WE CANNOT BE AFRAID!/So Who Are We Today? We ARE THE MORNING AFTER, The Nations Youth, This Nation Captured!/Our Dying Storm is the final chapter/the Ancestrial Indians built pyamids,FIRST Immigrants/KINGS,SON & DAUGHTER From NILE WATERS/The FIRST ARCHITECT, FIRST PHILOSIPHERS, FIRST PHROPHETS & THE DOCTORS WAS US! TRUST!!!







the TRUTH...

Love!

ROSE that GREW from the CONCRETE...

I'm sitting here shedding tears while watching CNN...I truly hate that my main source of information has resorted to coming form CNN...a biased, unreliable source...but at this point I just want to get any information about Haiti...to see if these ppl are getting proper care...........

But ofcourse time and time again...I keep seeing news reports (alot reminiscent of Hurricane Katrina) where these reporters talk mostly about the bad sh*t people are doing...not taking a second to think HELLO MAYBE PEOPLE ARE LOOTING OR CUTTING AHEAD IN LINE, STEALING, ACTING AGGRESIVELY BECAUSE THEY ARE DESPERATE?????????
They act like the people of Haiti are supposed to just be civil and act like shit is just fine..............I'm not saying what some of the ppl maybe doing are right....but I think judgements are not needed in a case where everything...including food,water,clothing,shelter...the basics are taken away from you...................

IT IS SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST....give the damn people are break..........haven't this country suffered enough......fucking reporters gotta go put them down even more........it really sickens me.....I know the powers at hand KNOW the POWER that BLACK MELINATED PEOPLE HAVE...and Don't want to see the GODS PREVAIL...but fuck...give it a break............WE ARE HUMANS...let's UNITE for Once!

I'm sorry I'm cussing and rambling on.....my essence, my core, is being a humanitarian...it's the profession I chose...being a child/youth worker...it's what I've wanted to do since I was a little girl......so this kinda shit really gets me going......

I have never related to a country more than HAITI...because just like the country I've been misunderstood all my life...people take alot of my traits in the wrong way...instead of looking at the core, or understand where i'm coming from....this is how Haiti is precieved right now...idiots want to say this is there karma, they do voodoo and worship the devil etc. etc......I think it's bullshit...this is a country that is one of the poorest countries in the world.....and what do you think happens when ppl are living in desparate situations? they behave desperate...it is human nature............so don't blame the people...blame the situation...and if you have to blame people BLAME THE FUCKING U.S. GOVERNMENT THAT STILL DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT BLACK PPL......EVEN WITH A BLACK PRESIDENT...............

I HOPE THE NON BELIEVERS OF ILLUMINATI AND THINKS THIS SHIT IS ALL JUST CONSPIRICY THEORIES WAKE THE FUCK UP NOW......CUZ WE IN A MOTHERFUCKING WAR.....

I apologize for the profanity.....I'm emotional right now...I can't stand injustice............

I swear fuck a vacation this yr...I'm a save money to give towards rebuilding Haiti.......

This is a video by ARCADE FIRE...Filmed in HAITI...Tell me this not a BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY...WITH BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE.............





PEACE

WHAT Can YOU Do...

TEXT "YELE" 501 501 SEND



$5.00 WILL BE CHARGED TO YOUR BILL...this in my opinion is the safest, most trust worthy charity...this is WYCLEF's Home, Origin & Blood...I am sure if you were from Haiti...the money wouldn't go anywhere else but Haiti...




PLEASE HELP IN ANYWAY YOU CAN...Prays Do Count!!!

PEACE,LOVE,BLESSINGS TO THE COUNTRY OF HAITI....my heart continues to break for the people:(

One Love

LOVE In LOVE Out



Towards the end of 2009 I had to let go of a close Sisterine of mine...I mean friendships have there ups and downs and believe me we had our downs...but also mad ups....Shieeeeet as much as me and her may be different...we a lot alike...but I just felt like she wasn't down for me anymore....of course she's a hot head and she took it really hard....to the point that she resorted to petty kid shit....but at the end of the day I still got love for her....Damn! it's only been a few months but I'm already starting to miss her......I know she used to read my blog when we were friends.........

I hope you know.....IT'S ALL LOVE!!!

Bless!

Peace & Love

BLESS HAITI

Last night I went to see Avatar with one of guy bestfriends and we had such a good time...I loved the movie...but when I got home I hopped on my laptop and the first thing on my homepage read "the largest earthquake to hit Haiti...thousands dead"...My heart just sank...This is not a country that has had it easy...actually almost since Haiti has existed they have been struck by poverty, crime, war, and "natural" disasters.....I put quotations on natural only because there is a organization called H.A.A.R.P. that has generated technology that can pretty much control and manipulate weather......so u already know not everything is what it seems...ya gotta dig deeper......Anyway that's besides the point...before I went to sleep last night I meditated and did some chanting within my mind to send some positive energy and blessings towards the people in HAITI.......These are people who really deserve a break......





This is a BEAUTIFUL Country...



Please send a donation through your local Red Cross!

PEACE & LOVE HAITI

ANTICIPATING...

I touched on a few things that I believe makes 2010 a great year...Ya'll already know I Live, Breathe...Sh*t Music...And from the looks of it, 2010 seems to be a year for some real authentic, talented artist to drop there albums...


SADE - "SOLDIER OF LOVE" (Feb 8th, 2010)
Can you believe she is 50 years old? Still amazingly beautiful! You give me hope SADE!



DAMIAN MARLEY & NAS - "DISTANT RELATIVES" (March 16th, 2010)
Ok the MOST ANTICIPATED ALBUM espacially since it was supposed to drop June 2009...COME ON BROTHERS WE NEED YA'LL in these Crucial times!


CORRINE BAILEY RAE - "THE SEA" (Jan 26th, 2010)
I've been anticipating this album HARD! I love this female...she is the essence of beauty...I am inspired everytime I hear her creations!


ERYKAH BADU - NEW AMERYKAH pt.2: RETURN OF THE ANKH
Word on the street is Erykah has enough songs for two albums...which I heard after Pt.2 is called "Low Down Loretta Brown" I'm guessing one of her alter ego's!


GOAPELE - "MILK & HONEY"
Maaan Goapele hasn't released a album for a looooong minute so I'm happy that it's finally coming!


AMY WINEHOUSE
She has a new label named "LIONESS" dope name...hopefully she can get it together to drop a album for 2010 like she says she is!


JIMI HENDRIX - "VALLEYS OF NEPTUNE"
You can never go wrong with HENDRIX...He is a LEGEND and the reason why most people exist in music!


JILL SCOTT
I don't know the name of the album nor the release date but I LOVE hearing the music that is created from a REAL woman after the birth of their first child and also a break up of a relationship which Miss Scott went through...


Here are some other albums that should be interesting...
