Fellow bloggers, ya just gotta listen to this one!
And remember, fellow bloggers, when you get to be as great a blogger as I am, you get awarded for it! Now, I shall preen and prance with MY award, given to me by the one and only, Donzo’s Guerrilla Graffica otherwise known as my dear, sweet and awesome, SKULZ!!!!! YAAAAAAAAY!!!!!
I am an advocate for the poverty stricken, homeless, hungry, voiceless people who are considered to be the 'unwashed' masses but whom I consider to be the unsung heroes for surviving a never ending battle waged against them in the form of poverty wages, no benefits, living paycheck to paycheck, needing medical coverage while employed, trying to feed their families on stagnant wages that have not kept pace with inflated prices.
And so the battle continues.....

Yes they do and that is why I wish that despite what my mother said, “You have no aptitude for music, Shelby” I should have taken piano lessons because that is what I wanted to play. Oh well, que sera, sera!
There was a time black people were reviled for their inherent music ability – it was taken as evidence of their base nature and lack of rationality. This, at least, seems to to be changing. All important American music, ragtime, jazz, blues, rock has its roots in African American culture. It’s so obvious that the ruling elite can no longer deny it.
Yeah, because now they just ‘appropriate’ our music! When they can’t make it go away, then they take it for their own! That’s the way it is now. Elvis Presley is considered the ‘king of rock and roll’ and that shit is not true. Eminem is considered to be the greatest rapper and that shit is not true. R&B is being crooned by white singers and they don’t have a goddamn clue of what it is to ‘sing the blues’. I am fed up with this shit!
I absolutely ADORE this!
