REDISCOVERY: FASHION AND STYLE

So I have spent almost 3hours reading thru Karls's blog www.karlascloset.com and I come to the conclusion that I have literally forgotten where my priorities lie with regards to the blog.

Fashion has always been the ultimate in almost everything I have done, making money, relationships and loads of other stuff. So yesterday I am talking to a very special person and he goes what are my plans for the future and i literally go blank............. and I use the whole of yesterday evening and this morning thinking about it and I have REDISCOVERED what my mission is.

People may call it tacky or somewhat far-fetched but STYLE is paramount, I mean its on the same position as food in the hierarchy for me and when I think of a response to my future plans I would say its my own little secret but 1 thing I have decided is to stick to MY plans no matter what.

I am REDOING the blog so you guys should definitely watch out.................. and to all my darling friends dat I make read my blog and share it each time on Twitter and Facebook MMMMWWAAHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

While writing this Jason Mraz- I am yours has been on replay for like 2hours, i'm a sucker for acoustic, neo-soul music SHOOT ME!!!!!!!!!



Have a wonderful Sunday guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MAGA NO NEED PAY

Ok I have to say it takes a lot for me to be impressed by loads of things especially Nigerian music.

So when a good friend of mine suggested this video to me*rolling my eyes* I thought "ok anoda nigerian video **sigh!!!**" but to my pleasant surprise I would have to say that I was literrally blown away.

First by the lyrics, then by the artists who did the collaboration and considering that I am a major fan of the soul genre I was uberly excited about the track.

The video was immaculate(Kemi Adetiba's handiwork ) and the message behind it makes so much sense, it is a positive medium of selling the Anti-yahooyahoo message.

It has definitely been one of the major highlights of my day. Check the video out and ps it features: Cobhams, omawunmi, Modele, Bez, BankyW, rooftop mcs,  MI, wordsmith.

IJE TRAILER

I am sure you remember all the hype I made about the movie IJE anyways I want you guys to judge for yourself.

Here is the trailer:

ASA ON THE GREEN UPDATE

So they didnt start the show on time but trust me it was definitely worth the wait.

It started off with Bez; for those that dont know who bez is, he is a fast rising soul musician whose single Zuciya Daya has been making waves all around the music scene.I would say his music is a blend of soul with a splash of funk in it and his style is toooooooooooooo die 4.

Back to the show.................Asa performed all her hits and kept the audience spell bound, she is definitley a genius at her craft. Thumbs up to her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! check some of the pictures below:
