Let’s put it out there, I’m a huge Beyoncé fan. However, her music is only a small factor as to why I am in awe of her. Of course, I was initially gripped by her music but that’s not a good enough reason to really respect her for who she is. An artist can make amazing music but still be a complete idiot. Chris Brown, Miley Cyrus and Azalea Banks are only a few examples. Even, Ed Sheeran has had…
When you walk into a room, do you bring light or darkness? (Part 2)
A few weeks ago, I wrote a post about this topic. This is part 2. However, before you read this, read part one here. Assuming that you’ve read part one, I spoke about how we shouldn’t worry too much about what others think about us but at the same time, we should maybe reflect on what energy we might bring into the room. After going back to sixth form just a week and a half ago, it made me think…
‘Toxic’ is a very strong word to describe someone. However, the term ‘toxic people’ or ‘toxic friends’ is being used quite a lot recently so let’s just go along with it. So what makes someone ‘toxic’? From what I’ve gathered, toxic people are those that fundamentally make you feel like sh*t. For the majority of the time, you probably won’t even realise it until you take a step back. You’ll…
Aminé – Good For You (Album Review)
Being the music fanatic that I am, I love listening to new artists. I’m glad that I use a streaming service that suggests music for me based on what I already listen to. Tidal has definitely enabled me to find great new artists such as Aminé himself. Before listening to ‘Good For You’, I’d never even heard of the rapper Aminé. However, his bright yellow album cover caught my eye whilst searching…
Before I get into this one, I would just like to say that I hope everyone got the grades that they wanted today on their A level results day. If you didn’t get what you hoped for then please there are still many things that you can do to maybe improve those grades or take an alternative route that could be just as beneficial in the end. “You lot have it easy these days” That’s what the adults…
When you walk into a room, do you bring light or darkness?
Just a short one. I came across this question recently on social media. It genuinely made me think about myself and the way that people may perceive me. The question isn’t asking about literal light or darkness. It’s about the impact that you have on others. How you make others feel and the mood that they associate you with. In my opinion, you shouldn’t be thinking about what others think of you.…
Despite my love for Solange’s record ‘Don’t Touch My Hair’ , an angry but peaceful anthem along with her visual artistry of a music video, that’s not what this post is going to be about. Let’s talk about people feeling the need to touch afro hair and the problems the come with it. Touching my hair for your own pleasure isn’t cool. I hope that this post helps to explain and justify my reasons for…
