Open Your Eyes

....hums to self

It bes like that

Closed Door

I waited and then it came.

A knock at the door...

Peering through the peep hole, I saw it was you.

My heart came crashing down.

Lifted my hand, grabbed the door knob, but it fell limp.

Standing there, on the other side, I listened for what you had to say.

The door-deep, thick and protecting, caught all the sound.

Stuck within the still, unable to escape- I never heard a word. 

P.S. I Love You

For those of you who are not familiar with Stacy Barthe, she is a song writer and songstress. She has released her new EP "P.S. I Love You". So far, I am enjoying it... especially her cut " Stingy".

Enjoy your Sunday!

Sex Aint Never Felt Better

About three thousand years ago, Tank, Ginuwine and Tyrese got together and said " Lets make a super male group called TGT". After announcing their assembly, we never heard anything from them. Then, comes this song and I wonder if my musical life would feel any different if I had never heard this. I resolved that it wouldn't. I don't know why these grown men thought a Trey Song-ish ballad would be a good idea.

Here Comes the King

He changed his name to Snoop Lion and decided he would embody the essence of reggae and Rastas. If you don't believe how serious he is about his transformation, just peep the sunglasses- if that aint evidence of his conviction then I don't know what it.

Thighs Spread like Peanut Butter

I just thought the world should see this. RuPaul has a song and video. Here is " Peanut Butter"  with a bounce beat. I feel some type of way that these men have more ass than me- I gotta step my weight up.

Happy Born Bob Marley

Breakfast Can Wait

I LOVE Prince unapologetically! He is my ultimate favorite artist, thus I support his new music. I present to you, a new cut from Prince, AKA the Artist Formerly Known As, BKA, MY BOO! The track is entitled " Breakfast Can Wait" and mine sure did so that I could hear this. As soon as I got word that it was out, I sat myself down and listened. You should too! Enjoy your day folks.

Liquid Love- Chris Turner

Minding my own business and I hear the sound of summer coming from a room. Of course, I go to investigate the situation and discover Queens watching the video for Chris Turner's "Liquid Love". Chris Turner is a part of the Romantic Movement, and has a jazz/soul feel to his melodies. The sounds felt good to my tympanic membrane, and the visual was just as lovely.

A Deeper Love Inside

Whenever I read something written by Sister Souljah, I pretty much become a serious recluse. I can be found either curled up in my bed or the corner of a couch. Either place you find me, I am completely enthralled in the story. There has only been one exception and that was with her novel "Midnight". However, the first day I had "Midnight" I read about 300 pages only to discover there wasn't much being said about Winter. I did pick it back up, finished it in a day and then got the sequel-so obviously those books were still great! I digress though. The point is, if you have read "The Coldest Winter Ever", then you have been waiting to read something-anything- that gave you more. Finally, that 'more' is here. I was pleasantly surprised when I walked to Marcus Books http://www.marcusbookstores.com/  in Oakland in search of a suggested read, and came across this sitting on the check out counter. I immediately asked where the other copies were, purchased one and left a happy ass camper. Since then, yesterday, I haven't really left the couch but to stuff my face with food, pineapple juice and the necessary shower- and even when I got up, you better believe I was walking around the crib still reading. Point I am trying to make here is the book is great! I always enjoying opening a new book, I hate having to part with it-that shit is like a break up to me.

I would suggest reading the sequel to "The Coldest Winter Ever", "A Deeper Love Inside: The Porsche Santiaga Story". As always, Sister Souljah tells a story while educating you- if I go any further, I fear I will give too much away. I will just give you a heads up-get ready to be sucked in, smile, laugh a little and cry some too.

 I thank Sister Souljah for her talent and I hope to read more!
