Hattie McDaniel: the first black or african american actress or actor to win an Oscar for her supporting roll with "Gone with the Wind."( A great book by the way if you have never read it. )
Her roll may not of been the most dignified (Mammy) and even she herself felt some kinda way when she was not even allowed to accept her award at the show (year 1939). But she knew at that moment in time that she was representing a people and opening the doors for those that have been able to achieve greatness today.
We will pay tribute to you, Sister McDaniel.
Inspiration.

Jus wanted to wish the man who had the most integral part in helping to make me the great man I know am and are continuing to be.

Pop's, I love you and thank you for always being there us.

Feliz Compleanos to mi padre!!!!

The Noisettes, a band out of London...gotta keep up with my London chaps. I like this group.



Amerie and Trey Songz remake of Mint Condition's "Pretty Brown Eyes". This song is rumored to be featured on Amerie's next upcoming album....YEWWP!, sorry had to do it, VA, 804 all day baby!



This was my ish, "back in the day"!



Didn't take a lot of time or come across a lot of music that I felt the fam would feel. But there is so much good music and talent out there I am sure you all are able to keep it going...So I will leave you with a song I heard a lot this past weekend and one of my favs from LTD & J.O.

And yeah I know, I still look like one too, lol.

Anyway, I just finished buying all 7albums of the A Tribe Called Quest, not including the remix album, best of and lost tribes. I never actually owned the officially copies so decided to purchase them. Definitely feeling like with a brand new toy. I love my music! All this with shipping cost me a total of $30.00. Every CD and case in excellent condition. Thank you Amazon.com's used section!!

ATCQ is the group I can most relate to. I LOVE jazz and I love my hard core raw truth telling stories of hip-hop and they were one of the best if not the best at mixing the two. Very laid back beats with rhymes intellectually stimulating but still carry the necessary street credibility. Can't ask for nothing better than that. I know some of us are on Facebook and seen those notes that ask you to take songs from a group to describe your life...Tribe would definitely be the artists that describes me best.

Hope yall had a good, relaxing weekend, if not make sure you MAKE some time for ya self!

Peace!
