REFLECTIONS...

My computer is about to die, so that means I need to make this QUICK (and short)

A year ago I could not have imagined I'd be doing this, but I must say I LOVE IT! I am very proud to be the lead in a team of very strong, determined and visionary individuals, with S.K. as the face, the energy, the voice and the talent. S.K. just put out an ALBUM in April titled The Progression, but coming to a d/l link near you coming Monday, will be his newest project Smoking Mirrors... (ok, quick -- the yellow triangle is tormenting me)

Here is the first single off this mixtape:

Reflections in the Mirror ft. Toby (Girls High Alum, whoop, whoop!!!)

Not down with O.P.P.

As a woman in "the industry" my role in a little more precarious than all the males that are tryna get it. Yes, I choose to have a role that is in the background, but that does not mean ground. I will not be walked on. That does not mean that I will let ANYONE (man or woman) disrespect or discredit me.

The (first) assumption will always be that because I am a woman that I am NOT working. Fools you are, because she always is. And just because that is the common assumption, I will not accept it! I will not let any one take credit for my work right in front of me! I refuse. You don't have to know who has done it, but know that you didn't.

And you know what, let's add pride into the equation.. If I (anyone) works hard and the results are successful (or lucrative) one should be proud and sensitive about that. The fuck I look like letting any one take ownership of what's mine? I am not a bragger, but a corrector. Don't claim shit that ain't yours!

I will take this opportunity to talk (brag) about the hard work that I have and continue to do. Actually, it's not just hard work, but good work. I am a driving force behind three very talented individuals right now. I am proud of them and of myself and (again) I will not let anyone cut me out of the equation. (As my guys shouldn't either) One should know that if you are dealing with them, you are dealing with me. It is a package and if that makes you uncomfortable or unwilling then YOU have the problem, not me! I am damn pleasant and a treat to work with.

Dub-C on a MISSION...

I got to return to Paradise this week and as I expected, it was better than I left it. Trouble is there were some people there not simply welcoming some underprivileged children and youth to a moment Paradise, but attempting to coerce them into a lifetime in the Kingdom of God, by way of the privileged (and obviously more moral) white people.

I know how that sounds...

I Want to Stop Feeling Alone...

I keep having the momentary bouts of bad attitudes. Some are reactive, but I can admit that some are truly unwarranted. And I know what I want (need). But I hate to admit it because it makes me feel weak. The reality of it though, and I need to accept it, is that it is not WEAK to yearn for the companionship of another human being. That's what we are here for, that is the nature of this beast. We are social creatures that flourish best in social situations, etc. Yet, knowing this I still feel like I'm not supposed to want (need) someone. I never felt like that and again, I blame him. I was ok knowing that I needed him, then that led to a shattering and from that I've become "good".

Suicide

Trying my best to channel it
To help you understand
How death was better than not being with this man
You'd only think I'm crazy
If you've never seen this place
But I think you missed out
If this love, you've never taste

Shelf (4/2010)

(Opened an  old notebook of mine, with intention to write something new and happened upon this. Though not my best work, it's "nice" to see where I was to see how far I've come. I went straight to Facebook to post it, then realized THIS should be the place where these go...)

I made room on my shelf for you
I threw my caution to the wind
and trusted this relationship to fly
I hung my dreamcatcher
not knowing that dreams aren't endorsed by cries
I packed up my past
and removed it from teh shelf
Closing the lids to previous wounds
flesh from someone else
I made room on my shelf for you
I folded my dreams and tucked them neatly away
For your dreams were the priority, placed on display

S.K. - Respect

Few people know....I shot this! (and I'm proud of myself)
See the secrets you learn when you read....
