SOME THINGS WILL JUST NEVER BE THE SAME

New Video Alert!!

For My First Blog...I Ended Up Buying Baby Kappa Clothes

The Proposal #1

By: LaCheston Moore

I remember the night that the conversation was held.  The topic at hand was openly-dating and my skin crawled at the thought of you being interested in another man.  But what was ironic about the conversation is that I still had your attention.  My mind generated thoughts that feed directly to my feelings.  I could see well-off into the future, regardless of whether you could or not.  We had just shared our first real moment that sealed our forever-bond.  And what was revealed to me, may or may not come to pass.  But how could I sit on such a story and not allow it to bless someone walking the same lines that I have.

That night we talked about your children, especially your baby-boy.  I cringed for the moment to offer a finger and that he would one day grab and never let go.  Shortly after that conversation, the next thing that would happen, it absolutely caught me off-guard.  I was introduced to a man that had the key to my dreams and understood my vision without me giving him a visual at all.  We shared stories back and forth, the ups and down and trails that we both had been through.  How things haven’t always been exactly what we amounted them up to.  He gave me two things: the first was a point-of-contact to get some paperwork completed; and the second was an invitation to an all-white event. 

I really can’t explain the next thing that happens.  So please continue to read, because this may never happen.  Due to the information and invitation that I had just received.  My mindset fast-forwarded at least something that amounts to three. The all-white event that “we” would be attending would be the celebration and anniversary of the vision this guy helped put into passing.  But the one thing that he didn’t know was that this was the same night that “we” created our own magic.

Who's the mystery man though?

At this event, I saw him standing on a shining-glittering stage.  The air was crispy and filled with the aroma of cider from where the catering was staged.  Everyone showed-up and showed-out for the glorious occasion.   I was actually stuck in the moment, because I couldn’t believe that this was actually happening on the account of something that I created.  With my heart racing for a number of reasons, because my intentions on that night were pure as ice; and then all of a sudden, I hear that tap-testing of the mic.

I never foresaw myself at this event without you at my side.  But I repeatedly told myself, that it just couldn’t be you and I.  With my mind stuck in forward, I remember helping the boys tie their ties and then the next voice that I hear, is none-other than this guy:

“Thank you all for coming, I hope you have enjoyed yourselves thus far.  I don’t want to be before you long, so let’s keep this show on the road.  You know that we are all gathered tonight for the celebration and the success of this foundation.  But what would it have been without the mindset of someone with nothing but great expectations.  It has been a pleasure to work with this young-man from start to finish and now here to say a couple words, I give you.”

(Strong PAUSE after that last paragraph!  Take it all in now and here we go!)

What man wouldn't love to have a family to call his own?!

I’ll never forget the first couple of steps that I took walking towards the podium.  The feeling wasn’t right and I turned and looked over to you.  The way you looked me in my eyes, I knew that you were happy for me.  But the twinkle in your eyes, told me, that it was you and I, and I no longer had any worries.  I stopped in my tracks and extended my hand.  With the baby in your arms, you came towards me and I was then overwhelmed.  I always wanted a family and I always wanted to be successful.  I stood in front of hundreds of people for the first time without a worry.

Just because I love Princess Cut Rings

I took in a deep breathe, I sighed, and someone from the crowd said, “It’s alright!”  I looked over to you, the baby, and the kids one more time, put my lips up to the mic, and this is what came out: 

Come through for me girl, stop playing games, lol!

“For 5 years my foundation was nothing but a name.  I tried my best to make it work, but some things just wouldn’t change.  I’ll never forget the day that I actually signed the papers to make it all the way legit.  And since then, the Lord has blessed me with a presence of a backbone I can never forget.  Tonight cannot and will not be complete, unless I acknowledge my support system.  This lady standing beside me has been more than a blessing.  The exposure to her children has replenished my manhood.  The feeling of being wanted and needed in a loving environment is everything for anyone to adore.  I don’t think that any of this would have been possible, without your love, nurture and care, fueling me to keep the haters up-off-of-us. So yes this night belongs to the foundation, and yes this night belongs to me, but tonight is also our night and this is why I’m on one knee.”

A Good Black Man

Good Black Men are indeed all around us. We pass them on the streets, in the malls, and the halls at work. Most we can’t see because we don’t know what a good man really looks like. He usually isn’t flashy enough or rich enough to turn our heads. He might not wear a suit or push a Lexus. He might not have a body like Tyson with a Denzel face. But, as you mature, you realize it’s better to find someone who’s got your back rather than someone who turns your head.

A good man doesn’t agree wholeheartedly with everything you say. He doesn’t just tell you what you want to hear and do the opposite. He doesn’t declare how sensitive, sweet, caring, sincere, etc. he is (he won’t have to because it shows). He has his own opinions and yours may clash, but he doesn’t have to degrade you to prove he’s right. He even admits at times to being wrong, especially if you are willing to do the same.
A good man is not going to meet every item on your checklist. He is human with frailties and faults mixed in with all of his wonderful, strong attributes. He needs your love and respect. He needs to feel that you don’t live to catch him doing something wrong so you can declare, “Aha! I knew you were a dog!”

A good man isn’t insecure about his woman having great achievements. In fact, he is her number one supporter and becomes disappointed with her when she begins to lose herself, especially for the sake of not hurting his feelings, or only wanting to make him happy. His happiness comes with seeing her excel in her dreams and accomplishing her goals. For as she excels and is exalted, a good woman will bring her good man right along with her.

A good man doesn’t necessarily give you a huge birthday or Valentine’s gift. He shows his love in the ways that are comfortable to him. Don’t judge him by TV standards. No one is really living a fairy tale. You’ll miss out on your own fairy tale by buying into the myth that our men are no good. It’s just not true.

A good black man is a man of his word. He says what he means and means what he says. His word is his bond. He never leaves you wondering if he is going to call or show up – he is dependable. A good black man has a love and a heart for God. As his relationship and love with and for God grows so will his relationship and love with and for you grow… Our beautiful black men we salute you, appreciate you and thank you for who you are and all you’ve done.

Pass this along to some of the Good Black Men you know and a few women that need to read it … So that they can recognize a good black man.

"DiVersODy"

“Shawty where you headed tonight?” a popular line within the hit single “Tear it Up” by Controversy and Big D, but also a common phrase in which we have all used at some point in time.  One could safely say that with these catchy tag-lines and soothing, yet bouncy music, that they possess the formula for success as their music can move any crowd.

Controversy and Big D capture words such as, “soothing, fun, sexy, and mind provoking” when describing their music to iPubNow. When considering the ideal audience in which the group chooses to target, they would like to win the hearts and minds of the younger-college crowd.

 

After seeing an exhilarating performance at a local sports bar in Birmingham, Alabama, one would find themselves placing bets on when this group will take off.  Energy, they got that; Hype, they got that; Fans, they got that, as I seen them bring in a number of people with them just for their performance that night.  The vibe that was created when Controversy and Big D hit the stage is one that you will find yourself bobbing your head and singing too; and you have to mention dancing.  From authenticating their own dance moves, to singing to the young ladies on the front rows of their shows.  These young cats may have what it takes to take their music to the next level.

iPubNow finally caught up with Controversy and Big D as they have been hitting the studio hard and making videos for their newly released mixtape Lyrical Healing (http://controversybigd.bandcamp.com/album/lyrical-healing).  The mixtape features their highly favored Tear it Up, Ride Wit Me, Put It On Me, and I Must Be The Man.  Some of these tracks do have official music videos that can be viewed on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ce09DaQF5H0).

When trying to categorize these young gentlemen, you might find yourself going in circles.  Controversy and Big D told iPubNow that they, “wish to crossover into all genres.  Creating a sound that is like none other in the industry.”

With Controversy and Big D favorite rappers being Eminem and Tupac; and their favorite R&B singers Musiq Soulchild and Sisqo.  One could probably see that they like to mix it up and see what it is that they can produce without mimicking anyone in the industry at all.  The group goes on to state that, “we use no one’s music or style when writing and if we sample anything, its soul music that we produce newly upscale beats to.”

 

Controversy and Big D drive speaks for itself.  Within the next year or so, their goals are to be interviewing and discussing longevity with major record labels.  They are also geared towards ensuring that their music is heard nationwide. 

So in conclusion, on behalf of Controversy and Big D, from iPubNow, “We finna tear it up”.

Keyshia KA'OIR Set to Brighten Up Birmingham, Alabama

@KeyshiaKAOIR to host "FliFriday's" with @LABELLIFEGUY
at the PH Ultra Lounge, downtown Birmingham

“A Miami Native, with Jamaican roots,” (Keyshia Kaoir Bio, http://keyshiakaoir.com/bio/),the star and face of Timbaland’s and Drake “Say Something” video, are all ways that Keyshia Dior was once known.  Parts of that name will forever live in the industry because of her look, physic,swag, and measurements.  However, her crossover from simply being that girl in a video with “the small waist and nice hips” has stunned the world as she has become the new sensation of the cosmetic world.  Now advertising her products and characteristics through Keyshia “KA'OIR” Cosmetics.

When choosing the ideal words to describe Ms. Ka’oir, a normal person would find themselves describing her as fine, beautiful, banging, and mainly focusing on her physical features.  But through creating her cosmetic line “KA’OIR”she has proved to world that she is so much more.  Keyshia utilizes her “products to demonstrate everything that she is; bright, young, and vibrant” (http://keyshiakaoir.com/bio/).  So if one wanted to attempt to grasp the concept of Ms. Ka’oir, they should respond by saying that she is creative with amazing drive, presenting energy that could move a room full of people anywhere.

KA'OIR Cosmetics

Keyshia tell us in her documentary that can be viewed on YouTube (@KeyshiaKaoir- #BuildingTheBrandPART1 (Documentary) that, “I blew up in the industry in one year.  I did videos, I’m on the cover of magazines, I’m the model of the year.  But at the end of the day, it’s how I presented myself.  I don’t have the label behind me of as, “O she’s such and such, whatever whatever, and now I’m the CEO of my own lipstick line.  Like, I used it as a step-in-stone”  (Keyshia Ka’oir,YouTube Documentary).  Keyshia keep her main objectives in mind when it came to her progress and entrepreneurship,she made things very clear, it’s about business and that is exactly why I am here.

Keyshia at her launch party.

During Keyshia’s debut in the “Say Something” video she stood out as the ideal candidate for the role “Lisa”, the jealous ex-wife, because of what she presented to the directors and personnel of the shoot.  She not only fulfilled the look of what an audience wanted to see in a video girl, but she offered beauty, talent, being an actress; and overall exemplify the ideal of business when promoting herself in the right manner.

Throughout watching Keyshia in her documentary, one will find themselves continuously laughing and smiling at the screen, as she gives off an impression as in easy-go person. Not to get that confused or take away that Keyshia clearly states that she is a “BOSS”.  As she recognizes how things should be done, how to communicate with all reliable sources, and cross the finish-line victoriously.

Well ladies and gentlemen of Birmingham, Alabama.  Justin “LABELLIFEGUY” Guy presents you with the opportunity to see Ms. KA’OIR for yourself. As promised, as Justin continues to be the number one promoter in Birmingham and turn up every single “FliFriday” that’s presented to his audience.  On August 3, 2012, everyone in the city needs to make sure that they are in one building and that's the PH UltraLounge in downtown Birmingham.
