Danielle Black Isn’t “Finished?” -Video

 

Danielle Black’s Bars, Vocals, & Visuals Dominate Indie Charts In “Finished?”

Sultry singer, songwriter, rapper, and actress Danielle Black releases electrifying, in your face visuals for “Finished?.” With her fierce and intense dominating being, Black addresses ‘Jadas’ (jealous haters) who blame her for their steady downfall. Her deliverance of slick lyrics and strong vocals are just a teaser attesting to her continual wins in the industry. Whether she’s spitting bars or singing, Black is the complete package Rah Rah Rah-ing all the way to the top while the others are Nah Nah Nah-ing on the sidelines.

The video depicts Black’s versatility as an artist, a woman, as well as an unbreakable pillar. Black coupling with a sleek snake throughout the video symbolizes her re-birth with no elbow room to deter her growth. Watch “Finished?” and connect with Danielle Black below.

To be acknowledged for doing anything great in America as a Black American is very far and few. I totally salute Google for changing the regime, and showing America that they see us LOUD, CLEAR, and in 3D!!!

Google briefly explains the reasoning behind this video:

“This Black History Month, we’re celebrating some of #TheMostSearched moments and individuals in America. To find them, we used U.S.-based Google Trends Data to identify Black American achievements that were searched more than any others between January 1, 2004 – when U.S. Search Data first became available – and July 1, 2019. Here’s to the history makers and all those they continue to inspire”

I swear it gets no better than that!!! Enjoy this 1 minute film and get ready for Black History Month 2020!!

Producer Amadeus360 Ignites Charts With “A Serious Problem” Ft. M.O.P & Teflon

It takes a dominating force with animalistic instincts to run through the boroughs with vigorous, lyrical gods as M.O.P and Teflon. With a lengthy and celebrated catalog under his belt, producer Amadeus360 fits the bill!

Amadeus360 lays down an impeccable, yet gritty blueprint and enlists NY’s infamous firing squad. The combination of concrete trembling bass and pulsating tones heightens the aggressive bars. His use of intermittent cuts and scratches sends listeners into a Hip Hop induced adrenaline rush, leaving the track on repeat!  Stream “A Serious Problem” and connect with Amadeus360 on Instagram and Twitter.

About Amadeus360

He is celebrated as a former DJ in NYC and surrounding areas at The Tunnel, SOBs, Fat Beats, The Shadow, and many other distinguished venues.

Tyler, The Creator Grateful for award but still feels slighted

Tyler, “I don’t like that urban word; it’s just a politically correct way to say the n-word to me. When I hear that, I’m just like why can’t we be in pop?”

Tyler, the Creator may have nabbed his first golden gramophone at the Grammys on Sunday night, but he’s juggling pretty mixed feelings about the achievement. The 28-year-old artist had a momentous night at the award show, winning best rap album for Igor after taking the stage for a captivating, energetic performance, and he used his backstage interview as an opportunity to call out the Recording Academy’s unfair voting process.

“I’m half and half on it,” Tyler said of his initial reaction to scoring his first-ever Grammy. “On one side, I’m very grateful that what I made could be acknowledged in a world like this. But also, it sucks that whenever we — and I mean guys that look like me — do anything that’s genre-bending, they always put it in a rap or urban category.”

Long Live Kobe Bryant

One of the United States greatest basketball players, Kobe Bryant, tragically passed away in a helicopter crash yesterday.

https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js

A total of 9 people passed in this terrible accident. I am still in shock about it myself! Kobe is in my age group. I am a mother of 3 children with one on the way, and I can not imagine having to bury my partner and child at the same time.

https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js

Sad incidents such as this really makes you analyze your life and the people who are involved in it. I bet Kobe and everyone who was on that helicopter woke up on Sunday only looking to attend a girls basketball game. It makes you realize that when we get up in the morning getting ourselves ready for work or school that we may not make it back home to our loved ones.

https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js

I decided that I could’ve spent my time just going in on Kobe and his legend status, but he was not the only one who passed. I feel so much remorse for not only Kobe’s family, but for the other lives who were lost too! I too have dealt with losing very close people in my life some whose death I knew was coming eventually due to long term illnesses, while the others were so unexpected.

During a time where mental health is being stressed, I just hope that everyone takes this time to grieve, and to take into consideration that even though a lot of us have never met Kobe, his daughter, or the other families involved, does not mean it did not touch our hearts or make us hug our own kids real tight. I know for me, I have to give myself atleast 5 years to really grieve. I remember when my god sister passed from complications due to Lupus it took me about that much time just to be able to speak about her without shedding a tear.

Losing a loved one does add a void in your life. I chose to always remember the greatest in a person or to reminisce on the fun times that I will always treasure. Like Kobe, I can remember when he took singer, Brandy Norwood, to prom back in 1996. Or how he was one of the first people to get drafted into the NBA right out of high school like LeBron James. Or the one year the Lakers and the Philadelphia 76ers were in the 2001 NBA finals, Kobe found his self going head to head with Allen Iverson, who was also drafted in the NBA the same year as him.

Just so many memories, that I know we all will treasure forever. Always remember that what we all have in common is that everyday is granted to us. Make sure to give people their praises while they are alive, and to cherish this day like it is your last!

THE CONNECTED SERIES SEASON 2 PREMIERE

Hey guys! It’s your girl Mz Slimgoody coming to update ya’ll on an event I got to host back in November!

If you guys remember, last year I interviewed a talented guy by the name of Brandon Bell, who is an actor, rapper, activist, father, and a wonderful husband to one of my high school alumnus. Well…he invited me to not only attend this wonderful event, but to also host the event as well! Needless to say…I was beyond excited to partake in this experience, and network as well!

This super dope event I speak of is The Connected Series Season 2 premiere. I got familiar with the series last year when Bell’s manager requested that I interview him and provided me with a little bit of his resume which had me intrigued and also anxious to meet him. Now fast forward to the premiere itself which was at a local movie theater in Euclid, OH. Yes I can admit that the event started on CPT time LOL but the energy was very welcoming and animated.

The Connected series is a crime drama that Brandon Bell is the main character and the creator of the series too! The crime drama follows him as he navigates his life with all of this crime, suspense, and wavering loyalties going on…I am surprised he was able to make it to season 2 without dying!!

Pleas do not think that I am going to indulge all of the juicy details from the premiere!!! Oh No!! So make sure to check out the series premiere below, and all of the dope actors I got the chance to interview! I also must note that all of the actors and production crew are all from Ohio, talented people, and in December I found out that the series got picked up by a network!! Major congratulations to the cast and crew of The Connected series!!!

Get Familiar With Pharaoh Rising-MC, Actor, CEO, and More!

Pharaoh Bio Pic 9

From an inmate to entrepreneur, actor, radio personality, and emcee; Pharaoh Rising has made a worldwide name and buzz for himself.

In his recent project titled ‘Supreme Balancement’ Pharaoh displays his uncanny versatility with impeccable flows and rhyme schemes reminiscent of authentic, classic Hip Hop. The first song “Changes” covers the chaotic Hip Hop cycles that repeat every decade. The dance hall hit, “Lean on Me” encompasses the full appreciation of a good woman. “No Matter What” is a street banger for those who still head nod to boom-bap. “Panties on the Floor” was tailor-made exclusively for the clubs and poles, while “Buckwild” is a celebration of life and embracing freedom. The project ends with “Think About It”, a reflection of the world we want to ignore, and a reminder that our past, present, and future are connected.

Supreme Balancement Cover Final Square

When he’s not full throttle in the studio, Pharaoh can be seen on Tylor The Creator’s Cartoon, “The Jellies”, “Diary of a Badman”, and the Underground Urban web series by Branchout Productions titled “The Ninth Pawn.” As a co-host on Re-Vision Radio, Pharaoh guides listeners through multiple dimensions, alien invasions, government conspiracies, and rules of the matrix. If that isn’t enough hats, Pharaoh is also co-owner of Natural Nature Herbs (naturalnatureherbs.com), based on the healing tradition of Dr. Sebi and wife Maa of the Fig Tree.

Pharaoh Rising is a promising breath of fresh air and a major staple in the music industry, Hip Hop culture, along with holistic and over wellness. Be sure to stream/purchase his catalog of music and his latest EP ‘Supreme Balancement.’
