ELmatic: One Love




I got this Mixtape around May. I Instantly fell in LOVE with it. Now this song in particular is my joint! Elzhi's flow is just perfectly N I C E, It's like he got Nas song and enhanced it to another level, but the instrumental at the end Son! That is what heaven must sound and feel like!! Praises to Will Sessions! I meditate to that instrumental, you can hear and feel every damn instrument, It is soooo smoooothhhhhh!Those keys, xylophone, violin so so N I C E. If you haven't got this mixtape in your life, I suggest You get on it but for the meantime..just sit back, listen and chill to this...

It's Been a minute...

..but im back, well for a short while! So I have bee going through a shift and been reminencing of the yester-years! I keep on saying it but it so true I MISS THE MUTHAFUCKIN 90's! musically you don't know how close music/music video and I were! These days if I turn on the radio my usual reacton is "blah" Give or take a few quality online radio station that play decent music, or music to my caliber. I don't even view music videos like I use to! I remember back in days when I would sit and wait for a particualr video to come on MTV/The Box/BET International(shout out to those who had cable in the mid-80's-90's).My mother already warned me if I called and requested a video i'll be in for a beating LOL. I had to wait and flick between channels, only leave the room for a toilet break or snak break when the commericals came on! Thats how passionate I was about music videos!

So I came across a tumblr page dedicated to the 90's and memories started flooding back! Right know I want to go back a decade and some change, give props to one of those r&b/hip hop all girl groups. The one group who didnt actually have puff daddy in every video screamin "bad boy" or "take dat take dat!" Im talkin about Total. Now their vocal arrangements aint to par to say envogue but my goodness they had some TUNEEESSSSS!! Now first up this video right here I loved because you never really saw a video like this, a camera panning from below through glass! and Missy was in it too! The beat was sick her adlibs were also the ish and home girl with the paws on her thighs made me want a puppy!



Yup. Goodtimes. Imma leave y'all with one more, Now if this doesn't make you wanna slow dance withe somebody or with ya damn self! Something aint RIGHT!

Black History Month

Over here in the UK its Black History month, A Month where black people celebrate their history. I view it just like Valentines Day, it should be celebrated and acknowledged everyday. Every day there is something to be thankful for, for if it wasn’t for our ancestors we would not be here today or have things we now use in everyday life. As a child I was often told of the many great black people in our history such as Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, Martin Luther King , Malcolm X, Nelson Mandela etc I was also informed of the many things black people invented and contributed in this world. Did you know there was a black queen on England??, monarchy kept that one quiet! I was about 12 when I found that out too! Queen Charlotte was her name.

I am so grateful that I also attended Saturday Schools(Shout out to Queen Mother Moore and Afiwi Saturday schools) who made it their duty to inform and uplift us Children of colour and to demolish what schools were educating us, that we were “just slaves” and having Alex Haley Novel (and miniseries) Roots to furthermore prove that.

With that said though Happy Black History month, continue to learn more about your history and ancestors, learn and grow.

On a lighter note, I just wanna state this..



Tickles me every time!

..And in other news today..

Jeremy Kyle got clapped in the head with an envelope...





GOOD! Its about time too! On the odd occasion that I come across Jeremy Kyles show he seems a bit too cocky for me, fair enough the people on stage may have done something bad but his attitude shouldn't stink that much! At least Jerry Springer and Maury had a little heart at times and composed themselves well.
Its true though Jeremy did throw the envelope at the man, he deserved that lick to his head! LOL @ dude saying "your mum! "

With that said Chase and status did this tune, I swear they built this video around Jeremy Kyle lol




hmm I wonder if he has life insurance and has security around his home?
Does he even have a happy life at home??

Things that make you go hmmmmmmmmm....

New African Cartoon: Bino & Fino


Meet bino & Fino. A pair of Nigerian twins who live in Nigeria with their grandparents Mama and Papa. Today the first episode was launched and I personally love it! I can see big things happening with this as there isn't a lot of Black animation out right now especially from a African perspective. A wonderful future lies ahead, DVD's,Puzzles,Games, reading books and more! Please do support and spread the word. You can check out their blog here and also add them on facebook here.

Below is the first episode about Nigerian independence, and other African countries who are also celebrating their colonial Independence.

Can't wait to show my little sisters!

Enjoy.
