This is a new song by the artist Treasure. Fed up with the way hip hop is today, she penned this song to recall where hip hop was when it was good. Within the lyrics, she pays homage to the hip hop artist from the 80s/90s. Enjoy the music (link below):

Fight Against Racism.....Derrion Albert
I felt the need to repost this because it saddens me that people are still fighting one another. Instead of fighting against each other, we should fight with together for a specific cause. There is too much negative going on in this world for us to continue to create negativity. The violence really needs to STOP!!!!
Fight Against Racism
We all live in a racist nation, but it is most terrible when the ones who are racist are of the same race.......
We are fighting one another.
We hate one another.
We don't help one another.
WHY???
But we want reparations and apologies.....but we don't appreciate what our ancestors fought for!!Come on people...the time is now!

His Reflection
His Reflection
This is the way Michael Jackson made me feelHe took a look @ the Man in the Mirror and knew there was a world to heal
We are a world filled with many races-not just Black or White
Will You Be There to Heal the World and work at it day and night?
Michael Jackson was that man, and he was BAD
He wanted all to Smile instead of being sad
With a Child's Heart, I got it together and told my worries to Beat It
He was the best, and everyone must admit
I Want You Back Michael cause I Just Can't Stop Loving You
I turn on your music to Rock With You
I will always Remember the Time during my Childhood, when I first heard you sing
I was thrilled, I must say music, yes, It's Your Thing
Just a Little Bit of You makes me want to Scream!
Looking Through the Windows of heaven now, you definitely beam (angel)
Although Gone too Soon, we Never Can Say Goodbye
We can only wish to look in the mirror and see the world through your eye(s)

Michael Jackson
When I heard the news about Michael's passing, I was stunned.
Initially it was just a rumor, as no one (media) confirmed his death. My sister's friend called her to tell her he died, and she then turned to the news and shouted, "OH HE DID DIE"......at that moment images from his concert came to my mind. Taking time to really read what was on the news at that moment, "Michael Jackson Hospitalized", I relaxed my mind thinking that he was a little ill and people were going to blow it out of proportion. I left the house and went to exercise, but when I finished I wanted to quickly return home to see if he was alright......when I met up with my sister she said a little boy told his Dad that Michael did die and my brother confirmed it with a voicemail message.
I was stunned and of course did not want to believe it. I also, in not wanting him to leave this earth, thought he could be faking the death. It is still unbelievable!!!
Forever King of Pop, forever #1, forever in my heart, forever loved!
He looked at the Man in the Mirror and Healed the World!!

Father's Day!
What is Father's Day?! Father's Day should be a time when we celebrate the men in our lives whether they are our brothers, step fathers, uncles, or any other man who takes care of their children or those whom they care for or love.
I appreciate the Fathers who take care of the children in their lives! I appreciate the men who do not expect gratitude because they are doing something they should be doing. It takes a great MAN to take care of his children (whether it is his child or not).
It is hard to find a MAN who will take care of his responsibility.
To those children in the world whose "fathers" are not around...........CONQUER the world regardless!!!
Why don't you appreciate and love your seed

Father's Day
Why don't you appreciate and love your seed
You played under the sheets, now you have a mouth to feed
Oh, but you claim the baby is not yours
You just leave mother with child and walk through the door
Even though when you look in that child's eyes you see yours
That child goes on day by day
They wonder why the word daddy they can not say
Not having a daddy around does not stop that child from dreaming
He or she goes into the future forever succeeding
They know nothing can get in their way
Even if they don't have a father on Father's Day
What do you all think??

JUNETEENTH...Freedom
We have come a long way from slavery! How much has really changed?
I am very thankful to be "free" from slavery, but I still think about what our ancestors had to endure.
I wonder if they would be proud of our advancements.....pretty sure, but are they happy with the way we treat one another?
There are many who wish that we were still enslaved.....will you let that stop you or empower you?
Lets continue to do what is RIGHT!! Let us remember where we have come from and realize that we still have a ways to GO!!
March ON
