Vulnerability is one of the most important things in art. The ability to convey complex emotions and ideas in form is almost alchemy. Turning nothing into something and attracting the world to it. One of my favorite artists of 2016 came and performed at the NPR:Tiny Desk – Noname. Apparently, NPR is slowly planning onContinueContinue reading “NPR Tiny Desk: Noname”

More Life (Album Reflection)
For those wondering, the difference between an album REFLECTION and an album REVIEW deals with the content of the writing for my break down. Reflections typically will cover general thoughts about songs but more about the artist’s trajectory or feelings the album left me. Reviews typically will be song by song breakdowns. Now, “More tune forContinueContinue reading “More Life (Album Reflection)”
Resting in Him over Striving Alone
I completely had a different post ready to put up but I had a series of epiphanies and God gave me a potential answer to a question I’ve been wrestling with for months. It may not work out this way but God wants me to share this moment, uncertainty and all, to be a futureContinueContinue reading “Resting in Him over Striving Alone”
War Room (Movie Reflection)

All this week is inspired by my exploration of my relationship with God. I wasn’t able to see The Shack yet, so let’s talk about a surprise enjoyment, War Room instead. War Room Trailer:ContinueContinue reading “War Room (Movie Reflection)”
H.E.R. Vol 1 and H.I.M. Vol 1
Cloaked artists. Mystery music. Moods set by smokey lounges, late night drives, and midnight rendezvous. Slowed down and sexy tones pioneered by the Weeknd before he moved to the forefront of music and became a Starboy or went to Kiss Land. Mystery artists are all the rage today and today, I’ll introduce two. Note: SequelsContinueContinue reading “H.E.R. Vol 1 and H.I.M. Vol 1”
The “Up”s and Downs of Relationships
A few weeks ago I was watching Up, and I must admit that I was late to the party. The movie itself was charming and went from ordinary to strange very quickly. The entire first ten minutes were cinematic genius and for five of them, not a single word was uttered. I was in aweContinueContinue reading “The “Up”s and Downs of Relationships”
Day of Rest
I’m taking today off but I wanted to share what my plan is for the next week. I’m trying out something new while using the weekly posts as a template. Next week will have a theme of relationships. Not just male-female relationships but relationships with anything and everything. You will see starting tomorrow. Thanks againContinueContinue reading “Day of Rest”
My Favorite Soul Albums of 2016
I took my three months into 2016 but I finally am finishing this series. I have so much more music to talk about from this year already. Like the last few times, this is my personal favorite soul albums of 2016, not necessarily the best. This one is specifically not in order, they all roughlyContinueContinue reading “My Favorite Soul Albums of 2016”
The Good News: Chance the Rapper Donates $1M to CPS
As anyone that has been following me over the recent years has seen me talk about Chance the Rapper and the new positivity he has been bringing to rap with The Social Experiment and Coloring Book. I can honestly say that my favorite rappers are “Christian Rappers”, not just by content, but actions. Chance made an announcement toContinueContinue reading “The Good News: Chance the Rapper Donates $1M to CPS”
