EVERY DAY A STAR IS BORN

[ayyee clap for her clap for her ayeee; December 23rd a star was born]

Dear Samantha,

I just want to wish you; my best friend.my heart. & my sister Sammy. The best birthday possible, you deserve this sooo much !!! .your an amazing person, with a big heart. I absolutely adore you from the bottom of my heart. !! Whenever I need to someone to listen your there, whenever I need a great laugh your there. Your always willing to go above and beyond to make sure im happy regardless of the situation. I could go on forever about how much of a beautiful young woman you have become through out the years that I have gotten to know you. but I dont think theres enough words in the English dictionary. lol I am honestly blessed & thankful to be able to call my best friend . NO ! more than a best friend my sister.

You have taught me so much: whether you have realized it or not. You've taught to not be afraid to dream & dream big .!!. The amount of ambition that you withhold pushes me & makes me as well want to dream big. !! We grown so close over these past few years. to the extent that i dont even have 2 say anything & you already know whut im thinking just by the look on my face. We can say so much with out saying anything at all .I'd be lying if i sed we didnt hit a few bumps along the rode, but in all honestly it made us a million times stronger.No one understands the bond the 3 of us have aside from us.

I love the fact that you always laugh at my corny jokes. your always pretending to be little match maker. Our little dunkin donut dates. Our aimless phone convos. for hrss! . and most of all our friendship !!. I must say that in the past i took whut we have for granted but now I know that great friends are hard to come by. With all that being sed your stuck with me kiddo.

CANT WAIT to make it to the top with you & Daph. & build whut we now envision which will soon be a reality. !! L&L.

Sammy i cant say it enough. i love you so much from the bottom of my heart. & the pits of my soul. From me to you HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRINCESSS ! :)

I LOVE YOU !!!

hugs & kisses your best friend Lexxie. <3.

SLik d "Summer Vibes" EP Album PREVIEW

Slik'd released an Ep called "Summer Vibes".Its feel good hip hop that represents the west coast. He produced three tracks from it (Intro,Outro,Sick Of Love) with a bunch of features and production from others to keep the head and speakers vibing out right.It really captures the feel of summer from my point of view while shouting out his homeland California, Long Beach along with my other city in Los Angeles district,Carson.
I took the time to listen to his tracks and i'm feeling it. Theres a nice vibe to it. I think you guys should check it out for yourselves. 

All the way from Cali; we feel the love!!! :)

R.I.P. GINA [CHRIS'S MOM] :'-(

Yesterday it came to my attention that a dear friends mother had past. While i was in the city for Fashion's Night Out i received a call from my friend Chris. A call no person ever wants to get. I didn't know how to respond to him; I was so shocked!!!! Chris's mom died from breast cancer [ the second most common type of cancer.] I tried my best to keep my composure talking to him because it is hard enough trying to be there for someone while you need someone to be there for you and he needed it most. When i first met Chris's mom she was so welcoming; come to find out they were a family friend of mine before i even knew Chris. For as long as i known Chris i never knew of someone close to his mother as he was. [yeaaa every child loves their mother] but he would watch what she eats and more. I remember when we brought checkers and i offered her some and Chris told me NO! she couldn't have any. He tried to keep her healthy as can be. Luckily Chris has his close friends and family to get him through this hard situation. Richard; another one of my good friends that had introduced me to Chris a while back is just like a brother to him and i can only imagine what he is thinking. I didn't get to talk to him yet about the situation in dept but i can't think of anyone that would be there for Chris other than me. This is one of the tough times in life we are just going to get through together!!!
!

Perfect day for it to pour outside.
At least since its raining you can't tell that i'm crying :'-(

My heart goes out to you Chris!!!! Information && Donations for Breast Cancer

Deadass; i would kill for these girls. Either you have all three of us or none cuz no matter what when your not there they will always be!!!!! [FACT]

And For Everyone else. Thanks for the bday love. If i didn't get a chance to personally thank you it was greatly appreciated.

And the best Gift from you to me.

JUST KEEP FOLLOWING OUR BLOG!!! duh!.

sealed with a kiss, J'adore Daphh

ATTENTION: Up & Coming New Artist.

AS YOU ALLL SHOULD KNOW. I would NEVER promote ANYTHING.. especially on my blog.. if I didn't think it had GREAT potential for stardom ! SO ENJOY ! We Only Feature The BEST.

You may look & say oh.. another "wannabe rapper" or producer or something of that sort.. but naah. I've know Norman for YEARSSSS & He hass always had an ambition for music. & Through him I met Jovan. A kid with A WHOLEE lot of talent. He writes, produces, sings, raps, etc, etc. Did i mention he's ONLY 17 ? You can say Norms is something of a mentor to him. He's been making beats since he was 11.& he's no amateur neither. He uses the korg m3 (for you music lovers that know what that is !) LOL. It's a synthesiser/sampler for sequencing songs, instrumentals & other projects. & Some of his inspirations (That you can see in his DOPE FLOW) includes; mf doom, Kanye, Pharrell, & J. Dilla. I don't see him as another "wannabe". I see passion & ambition. Of course there is ALWAYSS room for improvment.. but that's where you guys (the fans & readers) come in. You can take him that step further just by giving feedback. :] Thnks Alwayss !! xoxoxo.

So with out further adoo.. Put your volume on max & Vibe To This..

Hugs&Kisses.Sammyy*
