DREADLOCK TUESDAY: Candice Iloh


This dreadlock tuesday goes to the homie Candice Iloh from Wisconsin. She's a senior at HU and a very beautiful person inside and out. She's a great writer who's greatest asset is her ability to be completely honest in her writings. I believe the locking of her hair is due to her self-awareness, cultural appreciation, and growing esteem in self...keep lockin sister...

MESSAGE MONDAYS: Dont forget to rest...

This is yet another simple message monday but yet so important. Earlier this year I stated that '09 will be the year of work, work, work. Ive been abiding by my motto of '09. Going hardddd...going hard at the job that pays the bills...going hard on this music (Writes of Passage is going to be crazy)...but I failed to do one thing that come with work.......REST....

Right now my body has physically taken a toll. Not because I havent had the opportunity to rest but because Ive taken rest for granted. This has caused me to play hard or do more work when I should be resting. In results, its effected my work. The last couple of days I havent been able to do my job at work swiftly because of being tired...I also havent been able to put my mind to writing this past weekend because Im so tired. So Ive decided to use my time away from work to rest. Sleep gives the person time to regroup. Every machine has to recharge his/her battery. So learn to rest..let your machine recharge...

MESSAGE MONDAYS: Dont forget..

Another late post...

So I admit I didnt watch the grammys...I was too busy working on being there next year a.k.a. in the studio...but I did look at performances online. One performance struck me, not because it was all that great but, because it reminded me of a disaster that hasnt been fully recovered and fixed. Katrina. Before I saw the clip of Wayne and Robin Thicke performance Katrina had completeley left my mind because I wasnt directly affected and coverage of Katrina's aftermath has been few. This so often happens and why alot of matters are left unfinished. There is a disaster and people are hyped and down for the movement of the moment and when the hype disappear, so the does the followers of the cause. Leaving its victims forgotten. Think about it...when was the last time you thought about Jena 6, Katrina, or even Sean Bell. All matters that had full support in its highest moments of hype. All matters that are still unresolved. All matters that are forgotten...Its a sad thing to its victims who feel like their matters will be resolved because they have the support of the world. Yet, they are forgotten and still struggling. I apologize Katrinians and New Orleans natives for forgetting. Also I send these apologies to Jena 6, Sean Bell, and 9/11 victims. I promise the next disaster that moves me I wont support unless I see it all the way through. Because too many times victims are forgotten...

So while yall left the Grammys concerned about the new Ike & Tina a.k.a. Chris & Rihanna...Im leaving yall with a real message they tried to give...dont forget...

MESSAGE MONDAYS: Real life before Internet life...

So. In middle school and the beginning of High school I had a blackplanet page. Multiple. In middle school I used to use yahoo messenger. Freshman year of college I got a facebook page, myspace page, and signed on to AIM. Sophomore year I made a blogger page but didnt start to use it until last year. Earlier this year I got on Twitter. Internet life all crazy....

This past week was crazy at work. Change shifts and now all my free time is during the day..theres nothing to do during the day (if youre 22) so I spent a lot of my free time online...like all day on the mac...then I was feeling overwhelmed. So this weekend when the homies was like lets go see to Athens to the step show at UGA, I was like yea...enjoyed my time. Yesterday, I went to a female friend's house for SUperbowl party...enjoyed myself. Yet, I still got online on my phone...then I came to realize this internet thing starting to take over...cant do that...

Short and simple, ppl dont let your internet life be better than your real life. Get offline and get in line to enjoy reality....my thought...
