There’s always two ways to look at a situation, it just so happens that more often than not, we choose to look at the negative side of things. I do a lot of preaching about positive thinking and staying optimistic but unfortunately I rarely practice what I preach. So it can be overwhelming when you…
When I was a teenager all I listened to was R&B music. My life consisted of Jagged Edge, Monica, Dru Hill, Brian McKnight, Brandy, etc. Unfortunately as I’ve gotten older I have made a conscience decision to stay away from R&B music. I just felt like the music lost it’s genuine feeling and everything sounded…
We are taught, at a very young age, that in order to survive you must be in constant competition with the other women around you. Someone will always be prettier, tougher, smarter, louder than you so you must always try to beat her. This idealistic way of thinking is shoved down our throats through movies,…
My favorite kind of music is the kind you can feel in your soul. It’s fine to dance to a song, it’s okay to sing in the shower to a catchy tune, it makes sense to have a dance party in your car to a fun hit; but the songs you feel in your soul…
LIGHTS is an artist that I should be obsessed with. Her voice, her lyrics, her sound, her looks are all things that I appreciate in a musician and yet I find myself constantly overlooking her music.

In the last couple of weeks I have felt a lot of frustration and since I’m not one to openly complain, I get stuck silently feeling. There’s no need in getting into the details but I…
The Grammy Awards are tonight and the excitement is real! Though yes, I know that for the most part the Grammy Awards are all politics and often none of the fans agree with who actually wins and/or is nominated. (Remember that one time Iggy Azalea was nominated for a Grammy? Yes, a real tragedy). Yet…
So maybe I didn’t time this review properly. I should have posted this as soon as Rihanna’s album came out, because all we’re thinking about now is Beyonce. Nevertheless, here goes nothing: Maybe it’s because there was too much hype around the album. Maybe I don’t know how to truly appreciate the artist that is…
Okay but, did you really think that this Music Monday would be about anything other than Beyonce? It’s been two days since Beyonce once again took over the world and my heart is currently at its happiest state. I always forget how much I love Beyonce until she makes an appearance and reminds us why…
