... 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!

...And the Beat goes ON.

Good Afternoon...
I have been trying to decide on what I should blog about next.
Now these pasts few days...
 I have managed to spend my time WISELY!

The NBA All Star Weekend was quite entertaining, 
Especially when you think about all the after parties, performances and events happening around it. 





I felt bad for a new artist, Aloe Blacc... 



Last night, He was quite OFF-KEY and OUT-of-SYNC with the LIVE band...
BUT, you can tell that dude-man can SING... But it was just one of those poor performances that occured. 
  • BEYONCE tumbled down steps
  • MICHELLE tripped on LIVE television
  • ALICIA KEYS tripped on stage pregnant a few times 
and MANY artists have had there moments... 
It happen to the BEST of US.
JUST next time around... 
He gotta GO-HARD! 
No second chances for a long time lol.
It just unfortunate that we are getting to know you and this happens!
KEEP YA HEAD UP PLAYA!

So NICKI Minaj dropped a DOPE NEW VIDEO! and a BOMB after..smh..

Got a lot of dudes salty & confused since women were just 'Drunk In Love.' 

To me it's funny.. That song in NO WAY reflects ME so.... lol

I just think its FUNNY how every Celeb is Pulling PUBLICITY STUNTS EVERYWHERE!
From Drake to Kanye to Towanda to Lil Kim to Omarion to Beyonce 
to even Beiber and MILEY (Fake Wildin' LOL)
Dang to stay commercial you gotta keep pushing that envelope. SHEESH!

As long as they can stay TRUE to their art and THEMSELVES... I ain't Judging...
Speaking of  TRUE Talent....
I wanted to Shout out my Lil bro's Blog EXISTENCE... 

On his Blog, he displays his art , experience, inspiration and many projects/Collabs.

HOLLA @ him!
