ITS THAT TIME!!
TIME TO GET TOWNED!!!
As we continue to gather ourselves on this Coronavirus pandemic and public events and entertainment and leisure establishments closing, people are managing and trying to adjust to quarantining themselves at home people are trying to find ways to keep themselves busy and unbored with family, relationships and themselves.
WHAT ABOUT SOCIAL DISTANCING?
As the country tries to adjust to the new normal with this current crises, states and its leaders are faced to mandate a STAY AT HOME rule for everyone unless its necessary for food, gas and exercise.
BUT some are confusing the difference between social distancing and socializing from a far.
So what can we do?
Of course, the obvious is to stay at home, but its been seen that many are using social media to socialize.
Many are using Instagram/Facetime to video call family and friends. What is interesting is to watch celebrities have convos with others and being a "fly on the net "watching them talk about random things.
If you are a gamer, then you have already trained you rmental to interact with others via gaming.
Socializing parties online using Zoom on your laptop/desktop can also be an alternative if one wants to still communicate for socialites.
But, if you have to go outside, please dsiatnce and cover up your nose, mouth, eyes, and your EGO.
STREAMING VIEWZ
During our quarantining, there is a new series from Tyler Perry called RUTHLESS that is currently streaming on BET Plus. This is a spinoff of his series OVAL, a prequel of a sex cult. Its lead character Ruth, kidnaps her child (that is seen in the first epsidoe of OVAL) and returns to the cult.
This series definitely gives a Rev Jim Jones tease. Its cult leader sees himself as a god who has sexual deviancies as his worshipers are at his beckoned call .
Whats so shocking about this series is that its something totally different from Tyeler Perrys brand. For some years now, he has dabbeld into R rated material ("For Colored Girls," "Acrimony,") but this series is BEYOND R: male frontal nudity, orgies, homosexuality and the occult.
We dont want to spoil anything, but there is one scene where a male cult assistant commands new male cult member to investigate his lower extremities that will make you rewind to beleive what you saw!
You will definitely will need a religious cleansing after watching this series LOL.
But, if youre into this type of content, dont expect any Madea type comedy here. Its definitely worth a peep.
FASHIONEERZ
This week we feature a new segment that highlight African American entertainers who were or are fashion icons who set the standards of fashion.
This week we feature, Jody Watley
This week we feature singer/songwriter, Jody Watley.
This beautiful sista was one of the fashion icons of the mid 1980s and early 1990s. After leaving the soul trio Shalamar, she re-invented herslef when she debute dwith her platinum self titled album in 1987. But what stood her out was her knack for fashion: hooped earrngs, hooped dresses, bustiers and that long wavy hair. But throughout her career, she managed to chenge up her look from long tuxedos with short wigs, and fur with knee high boots.She was also a phenomenal dancer (she got her start on Soul Train in the 1970s) who was more of a natural mover as opposed to other R&B dance singers who depended on a choreographer. She is very underrated reagrding being a fashion pioneer, but she definitely helped define the look for female pop glam.
As I was journeying through YOU TUBE I was in a Wilson Pickett type search. For you youngins who dont know who he is, he was a soul singer during the 1960s and 1970s whos big hits were "Land of a 1,000 Dances," "Mustang Sally," and "Dont Knock My Love" to name a few. As I was getting my soul stirred from watching his videos on YOUTUBE I found an odd one pairing him up with Welsh born singer Tom Jones (who can now be seen on "The Voice"). He is a blue eyed soul singer who also was at hsi peak during the 1960s and 1970s. There is a vid of both of them where Pickett sang a medley with Jones on the latter's variety special. Jones holds up quite well going toe to toe vocally with Pickett.
