Billie Club

If you have ever been in the wrong neighborhood, at the wrong time, and have been subjected to racially profiling by the "po-po," this song by Wayna feat. Muhsinah "Billie Club." goes out to you, you, you and you. (pointing fingers to random audience members, ehem...I mean blog-readers)


Wayna's has sung a word perfect portrayal of the all too familiar feeling that creeps up your spine when "The Man" is running your liscence plate number, or grilling you when you are standing on the corner lampin' with the homies.
Wayna you the truth gurl!

BTW i am soo excited for Thursday I am gonna piss in my pants =)

A Loss to the Community

Heart felt condolences go out to the families of Andre Saunders Jr., 32, and Lemarr Wilson, 21 who were killed yesterday in South Side, Jamaica Queens. Being a native from Queens and knowing people from South Jamaica Housing projects, this really hit home for me.

It is so sad to see young black men lost, and what is even sadder is that they were just trying to make a music and art, and they were hindered in the process. Just being in the wrong place, at the wrong time. SMH!

For those not familiar, a shooting occurred just after 4:30 p.m. at 160th Street and 109th Avenue, while a music video was being filmed in broad daylight on Sunday afternoon. The two men were killed in the crossfire, and another 17 year old young man was injured. We need to pay attention, and stop leeching our community of its black men. We have a new president, and we made a change in the White House, let's make a change in our houses now....
