Jessica Sanchez Stuttering

I don't usually watch American Idol, but I found myself gasping for air when I heard this 17 year old girl sing. She sang 'Stuttering' by Jazmine Sullivan as if it were her own, and boy did she own it.Enjoy

 

 

Solange-performs Bad Girls in the back of black cab for black cab sessions

This is what should be all about...
The truth in these lyrics...

"Its everything that I seem to ignore...
The classroom that I treated as a war...
The pocket book I see, I never saw...
The parts are still and I'm never called...
The bed I woke up in and thats not my own..
The make-up that I'm glad to def let go of..
The lie I lost my phone on the way home...
The taxi where I dont know where Im go....No...

And still I try to throw into my own hurricane..
Its like you spot me trying from a thousand miles away..
I looked down on you so deep down I know that we're the same
Its stupid thinking that you want come to play my game
Tell me, whats wrong?
No i cant tell you whats wrong...
I cant tell you whats wrong...
I cant tell you whats wrong....

Michaela DePrince - Ballet Dancer

Having a ballet, ballroom and african contemporary dancing background, seeing such young talent makes me get goose bumps.....

Unlocking the truth

Unlocking the truth is heavy metal band made up of three gifted sixth grade cute boys: Malcom (main guitarist), Jarad (drummer) and Malcom (base guitarist), who hail from Brooklyn, Newyork. Thier  vision is to be the next "it" metal band to embrace our ear waves and major stage platforms. As young as they arethey've got a story to tell, and want to share with the world. I belive that evrything starts with a dream, but your dream shouldn't end by dreaming, you should implement that dream! These black young stars are a example of diffrence and believing in ones talent-I have no doubt that either this year or the next they will be the talk of the town-their truth shall be unlocked!

Die Antwoord-Cookie Thumper..

I shall say no more, just watch the video.

Die Antwoord are on a nother level.

Just for control on a Monday...

I often feel like this on a Monday. Dazed and confused that the weekend went by so fast.

My tribute to Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela

Brief history.

Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela was a South African anti-apartheid revolutionary and politician who served as the first black president from 1994 to 1999. His government  focused on dismantling the legacy of apartheid through tackling institutionalised racism, poverty and inequality, and fostering racial reconciliation. He served as the President of the African National Coingress (ANC) from 1991 to 1997. Internationally, Mandela was the Secretary General of a non-aligned movement from 1998-1999. Mandela served 27 years in prison, first on Robben Island, and later in Pollsmoor and Victor Verster Prison.

The 94-year-old Nobel Peace Prize icon has been battling with a recurring lung infection and has been in hospital for 19 days. Doctors and nurses and specialists have been monitoring his health. My concern is that as a nation we holding onto our hero, but I think its time for South Africans, including the nation to let him go, he has served his time on earth and has done his part......Thankyou Tata for healing, paving the way for democracy, equlaity, freedom, insipiring the young and old to be  educated and emancipate themselves from the racial chains of the past. Because of you we are a generation born with vast choices, love and equality, and although as a country we have not rectified that we created, we are still working on ourselves and the country....you had faith and dream for South to work, and we will stride for a better tomorrow. Nelson Rolihlahla Madiba Tata Mandela...lulama.
