well lately i have been listening to ALOT of music....old and new
the first thing i have to say is THANK GOD the whole
soulja boy and "lets make a song with a dance" craze is over
i think it was killing the music and killing just pushing music in the wrong direction
but i am happy that artist have realized it and stepped up and came out with alot of good music
now i want to list some hiphop artist that are my personal fav. and i inspire you to listen to a few of their songs...
if not all of them... LoL
in no particular order....
Erykah Badu....
she is an amazing artist.
no i do not like all of her songs but she has come out with some amazing songs
making some incredible statements
and is a def force when looking at hip hop
Musiq soulchild....
being one of nine children, and a high school drop out,
he got his luck break and boy i am glad he did
awjuslisten is one of my fav albums.
his last album was not as good as i only found a few songs on it that i truly enjoyed
but overall as an artist his voice is amazing and he has done some great work over the years
Maxwell...
his last album...was a hit with me...
i can listen to it from start to finish and then start it over again
his voice, his flow...everything about that album just was perfect
yes there were only 9 songs on the album but it was still amazing
and not to mention his past work...
he is just an amazing artist and he will always be on rotation in my ipod
aaliyah...
although she is gone her last album was def my favorite.
alot of her old songs were good...not all of them...but her last album i loved and enjoyed all of her songs
i feel that if she was still here people live ciara and keri hilson would have a run for their money
another food for thought...if she was still here would beyonce be as big as she is?...hmmmmm
something to really think about...
chris brown....
ok despite his own personal problems he has an amazing voice!
i am such a chris brown advocate right now b/c he just made a mix cd with tyga (one of my fav rappers)
i have not found one song they have done together that i do not like
he sings and does a little rapping on the songs. it is a perfect mix/flow to throw with someone like tyga
boys II men....
ok an oldie but a goodie
these guys paved the way for boy bands
and created good music
all of the different voice just worked very well with each other
yes a "young" person like myself has grown up listening to these guys and they are def a fav.
common...
"i met this girl when i was 10 years old..."...the best common song...
he has been in the game a LOOOOOONG time
he has created so many great albums.
as an artist i think he is def. under rated. he does not get the respect and attention that he should
i love almost all of his songs. i have all of his albums
i love his voice and his flow...
no one can touch common and def. is a pioneer of hiphop
Ne-Yo...
his last album was def really good.
i am super excited to see what he comes out with next!
he has an amazing voice and it is easy to "groove" to alot of his songs
overall he is the whole package. he can dance, sing, and act. well acting...not sure how good that is...LoL
floetry...
poems literally put to a beat.
their music is inspirational
they are def a different type of group and are in a league of their own
foreign exchange....
i discoverd this group through a friend and i will be forever greatful
this group is just amazing
i can listen to their CD over and over again.
it has a jazz feel but has amazing vocals and lyrics that go with it.
now i know there are alot more hip hop/R&B artist/groups out there....
these are just a few i wanted to touch on...i hope this inspired you to at least listen to a few songs if you have never heard of any songs from one of these artist.

do you ever feel like the your friends...
people you know...
the whole world...
is just moving past you so fast and you are just standing there...
standing still in time...
not moving forwerd or backwerds...
just stuck...
well i have been feeling that way latly.
just not really knowing what direction to move in
i try to make options for myself...
but they just dont work out the way i plan them
i want things so bad to go right with my life
we all create this idea/plan that we want to follow
and the second those plans/ideas are messed up
sometimes it takes the wind out of you...
well i am here
right now
to take a step forwerd in time
i am
making a change
i am
going to defeat the odds
i am
going to make it
i am
going to take the grace of god and the blessings of my loved ones and move on
move on the life i planned out and will one day have
yes it will be later than i thought
but that will not stop me
....wait and see.....

it is amazing some of the thoughts that i have...
for me to be so confident...
it is clear that there are still many things that are in absence
of my life
you see, i lay awake each night wondering...
pondering...
hoping...
that the next day, and day after that
will be filled with things that i am lacking and asking
for in my life...
simple things....the simple kind of life...
that is all my soul needs to keep the bad thoughts at bay at night...
but it...i...me...myself...and i... am in a constant fight...
for what it is that i want...it is truly right...
for me...
or is god telling me...is he showing me...
to wait...
to frustrate me...
to keep me irate...
so i can narrate my feelings yet again
on how hip hop...rock and roll...or even neo soul has betrayed me...
keeping me afraid...
as i keep getting misplayed...
as i began to feel low-grade...
until my heart and mind finally get ok'd...
to love...
again....
confidence?
i was born a dunce...
to this game called love...

well after my last post...
i have to write this one to make a correction...
he DID come to see me :)
saturday....wait sunday afternoon i suggested that he come to see me
that i would cook dinner for him
and then he could go back home to be with his family..
well 2 my suprise he said he would just come and hang out and then head home on monday!
you have NO idea how excited i was.
well i got off of work. i cooked salmon pin wheels, potatoes, wild rice, and stir fried asaragus with cresent rolls
it was soooo good! and he loved it! LoL (of course he did...i can cook!!)
it was alot of fun to just see him and hang out and talk.
it def made me happy and made my week :)
i was sad to see him leave on monday afternoon.
i def look forwerd to being able to go and see him again sometime soon i hope!
i am so greatful that he is so understanding about me and my life and my decisions
most guys are not...and that is the crappy thing. but to find someone who truly understands
and truly respects me is a true blessing.
but that just means there is hope after all.
at first i was sad...but things turned around after all. and i am so happy that they did
granted erica was a little short and mean with him...but i know why she does it
i just have had a handful of crappy guys the past few months...years...LoL
she is just looking out for me. i am glad someone is!! :)
well just had to write a post as an update....

looking for the simple things in life to make me happy...
the simple things in life to live for...
just a simple kinda life...
i realize how simple my life is.
i do not have much depth to my life right now at all
and i cut out all of the complicated people and things that were in my life to some extent...
today did not start off well at all.
i get to work...at 5:30 am..yea i know im still not awake yet...
the person that was suppose to come in and help didnt show up...
wouldnt answer their phone when we called...
and what is going to happen to this person...
ABSOLUTLY NOTHING
our boss is really big on doing nothing at all when people screw up around here.
but lucky for me i am surrounded by alot of other people who are going to make the day go alot better
and working with the patients def puts a smile on my face.
so i guess all in all the day is slowly starting to turn around.
yesterday was ok...
evan had suggested that he come to visit me this weekend
weeellll
his parents got in a huge fight and he felt that he needed to stay home to be with his family
i mean that is amazing that he wanted to do that
but at the same time, im not gonna lie, i was super sad that i wasnt going to get to see him or spend time with him
i was really lookin forwerd to seeing him and actually getting to be with him
i had all kinds of things planned. it just knocked the wind from under me when i found out he wasnt coming
but it is ok
i mean it was honestly so hard for me to try to see how he felt.
i grew up with my parents and family always fighting
i grew up with a torn family
so in a way i am just immune to it i guess.
but i tried to see it from his view.
if you are a close family...hardley any problems ever...and then all of a sudden there is a problem
i guess that would be a big deal.
but yea like i said im glad he was able to be there for his family
i was just trying not to be selfish in wanting him to leave them and to come and see me
but hopefully we can plan a time (SOON) that we can hang out and see eachother
this is the crappy thing about distance
i mean altho it honeslty is prob the shortest distance out of any of my long distance relationships
i forget how hard it is to plan and try to make time for eachother
esp. when you have two ppl on two completly different schedules.
but if the people envolved want it bad enough they will make it work
so we will have to see..
until then i will remain hopeful....and pray for his family....and pray for mine...LoL
and pray that this day will go alot better than it has already started
like i said...im a simple girl....looking for a simple life....*sigh*..yea that prob will never happen...LoL
