This week my hands started to cramp while typing out this playlist.  This is a new one for me, and I hope it doesn't start occurring frequently.  I'll keep doing this show and DJ'ing for all of you as long as its within my physical capabilities.  I turn 30 next month, and I've accomplished all of the goals that I had set for myself as a teenager.  I am truly blessed to have as many friends as I do, and I feel very loved by all of my families- I am fortunate to have multiple kinship connections to a number of families.  I might get grumpy and frustrated sometimes (I'm only human), but I love and care about every person I know.  I just hope that I get to spend some more time with my sons before my time is up...  Thanks for taking the time to listen to my shows, and thank you for taking the time to read my posts. BIG UP YOURSELF

KEEP IT LIT

November 6, 2011


Another day...  The aim and focus of the show is going to be changing a little bit.  Up until now, my show was geared towards the people who were listening live.   The rest of my shows at KTUH will contain tidbits of my heart and soul, as well as a quest for as many brand-new unreleased songs as I can possibly find.

Due to circumstances that are beyond control, my son JAH is being hidden from me.  (Just when our Father-Son relationship was starting to show some real signs of improvement).  I honestly don't know when I will get to see my son again.  I'm not going to use the airwaves to vent my anger and frustration.  However, now that the show is being digitally recorded on Soundtap I can use these soundbytes to save bits and pieces of myself for my children and grandchildren to get to know me in their own time and in their own way.


Big ups and much respect to the 'Occupy Honolulu' who were arrested last night at Thomas Square Park for peacefully exercising their First Amendment Rights!!!

Anyone else got Netflix??? here's some doc's to watch when you're bored: 'Food Inc.', 'Gashole', 'Bastards Of the Party', 'The End Of America'

*Educate yourself my people, KNOWLEDGE IS POWER (the only control that another individual has over you is that which you give to them)*
