New Music Tuesday | Black Radio

Robert Glasper.

Two words I love to hear. His name brings a dreamy smile upon my face. (I'm something like a fan)
Today is highly anticipated album "Black Radio" was released.
I grabbed it via iTunes around midnight.

I must say.. I am EVEN more impressed with him now than I was before. I've been a fan for years, and he seems to keep evolving into something greater. (thats the plan)

Monday Motivation | Love you

Black Music Month: It's all about us

June is over. Today is the last day of June and I for one am a little sad to see it go.
For the past few years, the month of June has been known as Black Music Month, and that is something I am truly proud of.
I hope over the last 30 days you have been enriched with great music from your favorite artists... I know I have.
Over the past 30 days, artists like, Jill Scott, Beyonce, The Foriegn Exchange, Pitbull, Big Sean.. and several others have shared awesome music with us.
I hope you found something you loved, I know I did.

New Me

Happy Tuesday folks...
Just wanted to report I'm currently down 32 pounds since January.
INSERT :::HAPPY DANCE:::
I've lost two dress sizes, one shoe size, and two friends. :)
Life is good and getting healthy is grand.

In the city | The tale of a stolen camera

I took a vacation {Screams, dances, shouts} Last week, I had the pleasure of vacationing in the great state of New York. I stepped out in the city to enjoy the sun. My husband stole my camera (tee, hee) and took this shot of me. I’m pleased to share it with you. Kudos Mr.

Black IS Beautiful | Langston Hughes

Happy Birthday Mr. Hughes!

The night is beautiful,

The stars are beautiful,
So the eyes of my people
Beautiful, also, is the sun.
Beautiful, also, are the souls of my people
