Brother Jermaine in a heartfelt interview letting his feelings out on the situation. I was in Rochester, NY over the weekend and heard nothing but Michael Jackson, wall-to-wall music on 104 WDKX. I could not believe how many songs this man has published. I know people are in overload with the coverage. But hey, it's Michael Jackson. What would you expect?
Why are all of these other people coming out of the woodwo... Read Full Story

The lone survivor, a teen named Bahia Bakari was ejected from a plane into the Indian Ocean en route to France. So far, lately, we have had two planes crash which were headed to France. Imagine falling out of the sky, barely able to swim, and hearing voices of people taking their last breath in the Indian Ocean. If she could hear people talking: Imagine others who survived and drowned, simply, because they could not swim. Truly a miracle.

While we're trying to decide tough life altering decisions such as whether we want fries to go with our shake or which pair of shoes we should buy to match the clothes we just bought or whether you were upset because someone offended you, another brave American soldier has gone missing in Afghanistan. I pray he is alright and others involved. Apparently, he went missing Tuesday. I really hate war.

"the American and three Afghan soldiers were captured by low-level militants and then ... Read Full Story
What is the cost of freedom? R.I.P. all of whom have been massacred. For those whom don't care, because you think "that's them, and not me" or "it doesn't affect my life" you should re-think those positions.

I like Karmen Michael's song called "Stimulus Package," because it is uplifting and inspirational. Love his voice! He is such a pretty guy with soft vibes.
His voice reminds my of cross between Stevie Wonder and Donnie Hathaway. I am definitely getting his CD.
Having a tough time? Help is on the way.

Teena Marie released her latest album entitled "Congo Square" on June 9th. I love her vocals on the tune "Marry Me." The lyrics I don't care for, but begging a man to marry me, somehow, just doesn't sit well with me...lol. Nonetheless, it is a beautiful illustration of her vocal jewels. She has a duet with Faith on the album. I peeked at some of the songs and the majority of them I like. She is one of the best R & B singers of recording history. Definitely, some baby making tunes on t... Read Full Story
The U.S. Senate unanimously to apologize for slavery. Is this the back door to reparations?
I don't know about reparations, but a good reparation would be to have the subject of slavery included in all school history curriculum, beginning at the 6th grade. And I am talking about real details, actual accounts. Not watered down, politically correct, we don't want to offend anyone versions.
Here is an interesting comment from one of the posters on Nola.com in response to the news story.
