YEARS END OR YEARS BEGINNING ?


Every year i post something at this time of the year... i reflect back on the many good and bad times , The lessons Learned . I have always been quite an optimist when it comes to Keeping my head over water... today has been so incredible as I woke opened my eyes and swore to be Happy and positive , but you see sometimes time has something else for you... I decided to go get a Nice hair Cut . As i had planned on taking my daughters out for A New Years Eve Dinner ... So i get a hair cut and during this time i get the bad news that My road manager had broke his foot and had to have emergency surgery.. And his Grandfather passed all in the same day. There were many bouts over the day regarding where i would spend the evening ... and i felt completely pulled in 9 Different directions..But the whole time my mind kept going back to the origianl goal. THAT I WOULD ENJOY AN OPPORTUNITY TO START A NEW YEAR WITH NO CLAIM TO RELIVE OR REDO ANYTHING THAT WAS NEGATIVE LAST YEAR. I smiled even thinking about my mantra " That no one moment defines your whole being , and that every moment of breath was a second chance" A chance to forgive all and yourself which releases the weight of lifes heaviness. As i type this i wish and speak total success to all that want it. You have the tools and the power to be as grand , wonderful and beautiful as you want, Seize the moment and ponder no more. Pray in the spirit of the ancestors and all that came before you , remember to fight , live with courage and Life free.... Free in your own mind first... Peace - SAFARI-BLACK P.S. - HAPPY NEW YEAR

StaHHr EPK b/w Still Dope - This lady Straight Spits

Well sometimes i meet someone in the craft . That has a certain Zeal and respect for True Hip-Hop culture . Im not speaking from a space of Being an "OLD HEAD" but from a space of acknowledging this Great artist's contribution.
See i see her as a Great Mc first who happens to be a lady , often when people say "Female Mc" its in surprise that a woman could bring the heat . That is total Hip Hop Chauvanism and ignorance the ladies where there too when it started. Her movement focuses on positivity and raw hip hop lyricism ... Peep her green-Game

DIARY OF A BLACK VEGAN - VOL#5

The other day someone asked me if i missed soul food ? i chuckled and replied A vegan diet does not have to be flavor or culture free. There are numerous adaptations that can be worked in the kitchen , the Standard American diet rotates around meat and not the sides but there are infinite possibilities in the kitchen . I enjoy vegan buffalo style tofu made with soy margarine and Cheyenne sauce , southern style fried battered tofu , mock Seitan Ribs bbq style and list goes on .Fundamentally there are no rules to cooking period and this entry is to not point fingers at those who have been misinformed but to show another side of the Vegan Movement ...The black one...




Below are a few pics of my favorites....

FOOD INC. - A MUST SEE DOCUMENTARY

I Usually dont engage in talk about diet unless im pulled into a convo with someone respectful or intelligent . (did not mean for that to sound arrogant if it did) But i was talking to someone the other day that reminded me about this documentary called "FOOD INC." Its an incredible discussion about the politricks in the food industry. It is very controversial as its truthful content hurts the sales of the FOOD_DRUG industry . You can catch at some independent Libraries and cinemeas. I found it online i strongly suggest it to be added to your TO DO list .. Peace
