Performance on Friday!

What's goin' on world? I hope everyone is doin' well. I know I am. Actually I'm super excited because I have a performance comin' up on Friday. I hope you all can make it cause it's gonna be DOPE!!! I'm attaching the flyer below with the details.

I was drivin' on the weekend and heard "Crush" on Flow 93.5 and thought I'd blog about what I was thinking. I had this overwhelming feeling of appreciation for the station and for every DJ out there that has ever played my music. Without them, most of you probably would've never heard the song by now. So I wanna take this moment to show my love and respect to Flow 93.5 (much love to Jeni, Red, Devo, Justin, JJ & Melanie) and to the DJ's (Scratch, Jester, Pplus, Chambers, Sin, 4 Korners, Lissa Monet, Lindo P, Payce, Chief, Apocalypse... just to name a few).

Hopefully I'll see you all on Friday! Have a great week :o)

Spread luv,

Jennifer Hudson - AMAZING!!!

I know it's about a month later, but Jennifer Hudson's performance at the Superbowl brought tears to my eyes - the first time I watched it and even now. I heard that there was a poll being taken to compare her performance and Whitney Houston's, however I never ended up finding out the results of that. But anyway, if you haven't see it yet or just want to take it in again, here it is. Enjoy!!

Blast from the past

Here are some of the songs that I grew up on... who remembers them?

Listen to these incredible vocals by Brownstone:


I still love this song!!


Ok apparently I'm on a "girl group" tip right now.. haha.. but these songs are so dope!!!


Spread luv... And good music!

Lindo P's Video Shoot

Hey everyone,

Lindo P had asked me if I would be in his video for his song called "Let's Get Married", so I thought I'd give you guys a sneak peek. It was a long day and a lot of hard work was put in by everyone involved, but I had so much fun and am proud to be a part of it. Here are some shots from the video. And definitely check out the tune!!!! SO DOPE!!!





Spread luv,
Shan
