For a blog you must think my life revolves around make-ups and break-ups, pretty shallow huh? Well not exactly, I mean what's the point of keeping a "diary" and not be able to gossip about the trivial matters in your life...
I'm relocating outta town soon... in a month to be exact! Kinda' scary considering I was born and bred in Nairobi but I guess change is a breath of fresh air. (trying to convince myself) I went thru' so many phases b4 acting rational about it (never mind its only a one hour drive away from my current digz) The denial phase, the "over my dead body" phase and now finally "I fully accept it" phase. The house is great... full view of sunsets and sunrises and it even has mountains (ok I'm exaggerating... Ngong hills) for a background. (just hope I'll have cute neighbours being single and all!!) Guess maybe that's why I've been seiving out "baggage" lately. Never been good with goodbyes so I figure if I leave people with a sour taste in their mouth it'll make it easier to just up and leave... slip away to the bundus...
I hear they have cheap, fun hanyez ... that's looking at the glass half full dont you think???.

(I'm screaming internally!!) kwanza Jill Scott's cross my mind the version she does with (what's that guy's name.... goddamn! how can I forget him... he's done alot of acting in black movies... sigh! I'll tell u when I remember) right now I'm going thru' a major Floetry phase... My Apology, Superstar, Floetic have become a national anthem at home.
I'm yet to hear about Steve Coleman... hook me up!!!!

Yeah...Floetry Vibe is off the soul-platforms,>>Fun,Gettin'late, Mr.Messdup,Thissizzalavsong..... and their live album...[am wiping sweat off my brow everytime I skia them....things start happening to my anatomy and my brain is inspired]....Those Kwani? pple shuld huk up with them or smthn...
Steve Coleman...I heard his works by a string of purely coincidetal events...My uncle(lavvs Jazz)brings this mix tape wih the jazz greats akina Miles Davis Et cetera and smack right in the geest of the tape,The guy>Coleman,assaults the laid back mood I was in from the previous tracks,Am tellin you this guy is like a conductor,and instead of musicians he's conductin' the similes,metophors,rythm,bla! and the way it tokeas...well les jas say I'll try n huk u up,and then this time I was listening to a show on the then "Y-FM"(no offence Chao) lounge, a ka-segment they had dubbed "poetry pot" Bam!He amazes me again....I'll Try..
So wat do you think 'bout aaah "for lack of a better name...">>Soulful rappers.. The likes of Common,Talib Kweli,The Roots..even the Hiphop "God">>KRS1:for his track false pride....very poetic 1 word RESPECT...
