ALBUM PREVIEW
Album Preview
If you are an R&B fan or lover this is an album for you.
It's an album preview for one of my favourite artists Christon Gray. Amazing talent can sing and rap he's a gospel artist but let's get out of that judgmental bracket for a second the truth is good music is good music. Even artists you don't really like or won't really waste your energy going to search for have good music. But in my opinion he is a great artist and this is coming from a real music critic.
The title of the album is called "School of Roses". Which he says is about real experiences going through the motions while in a relationship. I'm a realist and the truth is if you are being honest with yourself there have been those moments in a relationship where you feel like your on your own and that's what he titles a "school of roses moment".
Anyways I'll urge those who love R&B to step out of their comfort zone and take a listen, for those who don't there is no harm trying new things. I am a true Hip Hop, R&B, Reggae fan and i stepped out of my comfort zone and friends got me to listen to Heavy metal, techno and rock which I'm not really a fan of but to be honest there was some music i actually liked.
I'll be posting the making of the album above so feel free to preview it.
Have a blessed one

NOSTALGIA
Nostalgia
Definition: a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations.
Today March 8th, 2014 was a very beautiful day, for me one of the most beautiful views I have had all winter. I was sitting down and just thinking about home that is Nigeria for me. Wonderful times I spent growing up with family and friends, sharing wonderful moments. In the middle of all this I thought for a second "am I being draped in Nostalgia? what is all this, why is this happening?' People call it the good old days or their childhood, or they start the whole when we were growing up speech. But today has has made me realize that i may have to rebuttal. Time is limited it really is and we never finish growing up till we are gone. There are so many people I know we haven't kept in touch with and we all should be, just try giving someone a call, someone you haven't talked to in a long time a family member or a close friend and catch up with them. You can still grow up together.
bye for now

A VISIONARY
A VISIONARY
A lot of times the question beckons in my mind "what is it you want do with your life?"
It's a question i will admit has made me waste a lot of hours in my life, i get lost thinking "what do I want to do with my life?", why am I here?", "what is my passion"? I honestly think these are questions we all should be asking ourselves because believe it or not life is very short,tough and can be very draining. So without further ado lets tackle these questions more in depth.
What do I want to do with my life??
This is a very BIG question. It's a question i believe everyone has at least asked themselves 10 times, but really though what do you want. Our lives are governed by this thing we call time. There are 24 hours in a day, 7 days in a week and bla bla bla. The thing is are we actually just going through the motions; you know, looking forward to the next assignment, waiting to hangout with friends on the weekend, watch whatever shows or movies tickles our fancy or are you making the most of every second,minute and hour of the day. Yh yh I may be sounding a little too serious but in due time you will come to this reality. What's the time right now? Do you know thats the last pm or am of that particular day or month you are going to see?? Think about it
Why Am I here??
Sigh... This is a very philosophical question for some. I am a Christian and I am not religious but my answer is I believe I am here to bring God glory and enjoy relationships with my brothers and sisters that is all of you reading this, those who know me and those who may not know me. Live in love peace and harmony. Pretty simple and straightforward right? What are you here for?
What is my Passion??
I honestly hated writing until i wrote this post, but you know i think i am beginning to like it, haha. Well i love music, I love to sing, i rap and i used to and on the occasion love dancing. I love making and seeing people smile and laugh. I love helping people that is giving advise if I can, a helping hand here and there making conversation you know that type of stuff. What is yours?
Hope these questions help you discover whatever it is you aspire for in life?
It was nice sharing thoughts with you.
yours sincerely
