Single Mom Travels (it's kind of a long read, so grab a snack!)

Well Hello There Readers! I've been on a writing hiatus but I've got the sudden urge to blog. A few weeks ago I was hanging out with my son and realized that as far as I'm concerned we have a pretty unique experience in terms of the way we go throughout our daily lives. I realize there's this stigma that as a single parent life becomes so limited and in many aspects this has proven true. However, I've also discovered my own ways to live and provide my child with a happy fulfilling life. There is nothing that can truly distract my child from the absence of his father, but as his mother I've vowed to make his childhood experiences as meaningful as possible in the hopes of presenting to society a well rounded, open minded, curious, fearless, adult. With all that being said, traveling alone and/or with your child are one of those single parent stigmas I was talking about. It seems as though as a woman I should live in fear of the world and somehow nee...

channel orange: "its an endless experience like an Ocean to be Frank"

I'VE GOT MY COPY. I've waited so long for this album you have no idea! On the brink of Ocean's coming out to the world just last week, Channel Orange  will be a spectator sport to some listeners. Is he going to speak on it? Should I interepert his music differently?  Let me tell you the music speaks for itself. Ocean offers the tenderness of his persona through his dynamic vocals. He offers us the realness that he provided us in that open letter.

Its one of those just close your eyes and vibe albums. Its one of those let's ride out to some good music albums, or let's just lay here and hold hands albums. (no one does that? , well after Channel Orange you will!) The New Orleans native has been ghost writing for som...

How did the Cookie Crumble? My take on Empire

Image
The show Empire premiered tonight on Fox. It stars Taraji P. Henson and Terrence Howard. Terrence plays a music mogul Lucious working to build an Empire/Legacy for his children while being troubled by the transgressions of his past one of which, is Taraji's character, Cookie, his ex-wife being released from jail after doing 17 years on his behalf. He also struggles with the present state of his health ( btw please no ice bucket challenges for fictional characters! he has ALS), which is the driving force behind his ambition of creating a legacy for Empire. Veronika Bozeman gave us the opening vocals as an Empire Artist, and boy was it beautiful, even when she was made to sing it over! I found the show to be entertaining although I couldn't help but feel like it was a continuation of the movie Hustle Flow lol. I kid. Kind of, I think it was Terrence Howard's hair! But in all seriousness I'm elated to see so many shows starring African-American casts,...
