SARAH WHITE BLACK


yo. So as if I don't have enough to do, I decided to start a personal blog. It will soon take the place of my photoblog and my journal, and will be full of exclusive tracks, downloads, photos, video blurbs..and random things I have on my mind from day to day. I just started it yesterday, but be sure to check it out on the regular. xo

i'm sure y'all tuned into these historical moments...to get further inspiration, check some Obama inspired artwork on my other blog : part 1 and part 2.
Also, PLEASE REMEMBER THAT IT IS AGAINST THE LAW TO WEAR GEAR WITH OBAMA RELATED IMAGES ON ELECTION DAY, or else you will be turned away from the polls...rock it before and after, but not on November 4th!

Mama wants...MUSIC that changes things...








I am so sick of the hype...and everything the comes along with. What makes me the most irritated is that so many people with the power and the voice to really put out great energy and light into the world, fall into a life of self and waste the power within. Sorry to bitch.. but Im not sorry.. this is what a blog is for. No need for censorship.. Anyways, with that being said, once I come across someone with the power and the voice and they are choosin' to use it right, I get slapped in the face with all these warm feelings of faith in the human kind, music and art that heals. >>>>>>>
Nneka did just that for me. For some crazy reason I had never even heard of her, but she has over 1,164,540 plays on her music player on myspace and over 21,000 fans/friends. She is beautiful. Claiming WARRI-NIGERIA and GERMANY. The song Heartbeat completely blew my mind and really inspired me on a more selfless journey with my music and art. Check it out. Maybe you feel the same? This video of heart beat did not allow embedding for posting, but please take a second to check out the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXVLS-pNuno

Also watch this video of her live!!

Hey Ladies!! RAYE 6

An already familiar voice from tracks with Ghost Face Killah, Joe Budden, and M1 of Dead Prez, RAYE 6 (think Vanity, Apollonia...click?) has been making a huge stir in New York City with her to sexy cameos accompanied by Bubble Girls, rose petals and eyes glued onto and mesmerized by her amazing performance. Her impressive arsenal of skills and gifts (she produces, writes and sings most of her songs & she runs biz) are only matched by her stunning looks. This beautiful lady's got quite a life story to weave into sonic vibrations, and she will pour her heart into her music without ever holding back. "Raised by a single mother Raye 6 has taken a fun spin on female empowerment. Aware and vocal of the issues facing women Raye 6 inspires the ladies to take control of their existence. Influenced by anyone who has stepped outside of the norm to create their own reality, Raye 6 brings you into her world of uncensored expression, class, fantasy and indulgence. Leading an all male band during her sexually charged performances leaves audiences feeling turned on and free." She is unstoppable. Make sure to keep your eyes out for her debut album "SHE LOOKS LIKE FUN" coming out soon. Raye's super secret birthday bash with dope guest performers, Theophilus London & Jesse Boykins III is coming up next Saturday on October 17th. Make sure to rsvp@raye6.com if you want to find out about the location of the show, called The Masquerade (you can imagine what that's going to be like...check the flier below for more details). Check her blog for more info here.
