Hey yall......sorry for not being consistent lately but I am closing another phase of my LIFE out and with that I have to hit and run as I can. I am going to leave yall with over 3 hours of 1 of the very BEST to ever pick up any instruments and his name is Roy Ayers . I wonder if he still lives in Brooklyn!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77hHIO9uHg4 Best of Stephanie Mills Who remembers Stephanie and why didnt she continue with her GREAT CAREER as a singer? I think that she saw the BULLSHIT and pulled back because the RUMOR goes that she was once Michael Jacksons gal during the Wiz. Anyhoo, as she is still the BOMB , check how she absolutely ROCKED this recent show! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0NxbKpZ9sY This is what PROFESSIONALISM is supposed to be about and as WE had a generation of WACK MUSIC, look for the great stuff to reappear!  Every young girl  sang a  SM song on the apollo in the 80s and 90s! Enjoy some Stephanie Mills yall!...

A man only has 2 things in this world & that's his word  and his balls. Never shall the two part was my motto. I despise anyone who lies. Never trust them or anybody you can't throw 20 feet. Plus if you tell them the truth they can’t use it against you. Rule number 2   Never use the word like when rapping  because there is no greater thing than self & so why compare? It only makes you look less than what you are referring to. I believe to use simile...

For Part II, go here; http://black2afrika.blogspot.com/2015/06/my-adventures-with-tupacbrainchild-gone_23.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngbf30vASss (Smile) Pac always aspired to do great work, ya know, to live up to a title he had yet to claim. We would build on album concepts and songs to fit him for each album. Voices contained personas from the hood, characters we met on the road or from our past etc etc. We decided the market we were going for was everywhere West of NJ. I pointed out to Pac that most of the country was 'Country', at least to us New Yorkers so logically, I wanted to make music for the bigger audience. Everyone west of NJ had a twang to their accents and so I figured to appeal to that with a country down south rap style. NY at the time was running Hip Hop but the shift with NWA opened the game up and I saw a bigger picture. I had lived in Dallas Texas for two years and so I was well versed in the southern lifestyle. Westside originally really m...

Freedom Party Doors Open all Night © Alton H. Maddox, Jr.              It is of great interest to me that a civil rights organization is appearing before the media as being in the vanguard of the struggle for Eric Garner and a Black oriented, police activist organization is claiming to be upset about the  chokehold   death of Garner ; yet, neither organization was in court on Friday, August 15, to show support for Garner.    ...
