... I LOVE MY NETWORK A.K.A La FAMILIA!

This weekend was quite intense for me and my peeps...
But with all the punches that came our way,
we all found a way to prevail!

Introducing, my 1st cousin/ sister/ best friend,
  Ms. SaFee! 
@mssafee (iG)
She has been keeping me posted about her brand launch of virgin hair bundles and line of eyelashes.
My AMAZING network of Friends and Family came together and all chipped in with there MANY TALENTS & EFFORTS to make her dream come true.
Ms. SaFee got together with A.G.A Creative Outlet for an AMAZING PHOTO-SHOOT to feature her LINE of VIRGIN hair-bundles and EYE-LASHES.
It was honestly amazing to see a group of young AFRO-American ADULTS from many of the same URBAN areas get together and WORK on a PROJECT. Allegedly, we  (as African Americans) don't have the ability to congregate, focus, unify, conquer and create magic. Well this project proved otherwise. This project went beyond friendship and was about BUSINESS!
I love how I basically brought together a group of people (Some familiar with others, but newly acquainted) who proved to me that UNITY of Great Talent and Artists is exactly what we all need to do in order to strengthen OUR individual and collective brand.

SIDE-BAR: Living my whole life in NJ and pursuing my dreams within the music business... I have noticed MUCH separation and LESS UNITY, throughout my years and pursuit as a Songwriter and/or SINGER. From visiting many open-mics jams in North jersey to South Jersey; I have MET TONS of SINGERS, PRODUCERS & MUSICIANS! 
That Atmosphere REEKS of hopelessness, selfishness, and spitefulness... Just to collaborate with the AWESOME TALENT is like pulling teeth... Everyone wants to be better than the other person... Yet no one is making any real moves into the right direction.... I would hope that MOST of them would have had that GREAT EPIPHANY so that NJ talent can be RELEASED and everyone can be heard, but the idea seem so faint when everyone seems to be out for SELF and SELF only.... Watching PuFF DaDDY's Bad Boy videos alerted me that... YOU NEED A NETWORK!
Remember its not WHAT you know!
It's WHO you KNOW!

I hope you all ENJOY!
