BRANDY!!

So, anybody who REALLY knows me, knows that I LOVE Brandy! Like, growing up, she was my favorite, artist role model. I mean, what chocolate, black girl had number one albums, tv show, dolls! I love her, always will. Looking forward to new album because Never say Never was a classic, I don't care! lol. I know she can do it again :)

So, here she is singing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" wrong lyrics, no makeup, killing it!! lol

NEW MUSIC

So, another UK chick in the sea of UK chicks.lol..But, nice music is nice music. I'm feeling the simplicity and her style, I'm liking that women of color artist are framing how they are looking now and are doing such great, chill, innovative, etc. things with their styles and aesthetic. It's refreshing and hopeful to see the image being blown apart of what you are supposed to look like as an artist who is a woman, especially of color.

On another note, I will be vigilant in posting our Black girls/women who can sing from America as well. The trend seems to be, lets go overseas, like the talent pool(get it.lol) dried up over here. Not the case! No hard feelings, we will find our ways to get out there and bring our originality and perspective to the masses!

B.G.C. AMERICA PEOPLE! :)

I'M A BIKER!

So, I have been biking and now I am part of a black bike crew called..wait for it...Red Bike and Green! Genius, I know! It was started by another lovely person whose blog is here-redbikeandgreen.blogspot.com

B.G.C. REPPING HARD!!! :)

I am really juiced to be in a crew, we took over the streets of Oakland Friday night, a whole bunch of brown, fresh folks on bikes and the black folks who were all suited and booted were juiced! lol. The crew is about solidarity and not letting things that are fun, healthy, and good for our community(environment) be the domain of those of the paler persuasion. :) I always wanted to take over the streets with my own crew as a kid, so Friday was living a dream.lol..Look out for us next month! And check out the blogs!

Mitrice Richardson Is Just Another Missing Black Woman

Mitr

The situation is written about extensively on the blog link above and I believe on concreteloop.com, other blogs, and facebook.com.

Another young Black woman lost and no major media coverage that I have seen, so we as young black/brown media makers have taken it into our hands to spread the news.

Mitrice Richardson was arrested in Malibu, Ca for not paying her bill, while exhibiting erratic behavior and then police found a small amount of marijuana in her car. She was brought to the station and released on her own at 1am, with no car, no phone, no wallet. She has since disappeared. Details are still sketchy, but police are now searching for her.Her mother and the family lawyer are blaming police for inconsistencies and negligence.

This is what B.G.C. is; about spotlighting and pushing us and our issues, triumphs, and problems to the forefront because we are still made to feel and be invisible.

Oh Yea-Me.lol
