The Ambassador

I have had a influx of spiritual hip hop into my life recently, thanks to my fiance. This is a new concept, even though I have been accused of only liking “back pack rap”.   This is mostly true.  I am not really into “slappin a ho” kinda rappers.  I really appreciate those who are out there elevating us, not trying to bring us down.  I personally believe we are affected by what we listen to, what we see and what we read. If we put negative , degrading words into our minds we start to identify with them and believe them.

That is why I present to you The Ambassador.  He lays down truth and strength, not needing material things to make him a man.  If you have a moment in time check him out.

Your Next Bold Move

I was just reminded of the Ani Difranco song, You Next Bold Move and it reminded me of how powerful a song can be at a pinnacle moment in life.  I remember sitting with a back pack in Australia, packing my things out of this ol school bus I was living in and not exactly sure where I was gonna go next.  I am not sure if that was she meant when she wrote that tune, but to me it meant a lot at the time. I love how we as people can apply other’s experiences to our own, almost as if it were ourselves who was doing the talking. Ani is pretty darn good as writing that kind of thing.
