FAR EAST pt 2 (Vibing @ Vibe Bar)

Hey hey for those of your that couldn't make it, here's lil summin for ya!

Boy 2009 is right round the corner but I'm gonna chill at my house this time round and watch a bit of Jools Holland, have friends and family round and just enter the new year with no stress. The news have warned people to wrap up warm as temperatures are meant to drop to minus 13 or summin. Me and cold weather do not go together so I don't know bout chu but I think I'm gonna stay in the warmth of my lovely flat.

Have a wicked NYE everyone! :-)

From Stage To Studio To Being Locked Outside My House

Well since the last blog, Me and the boys (TRUTH moveMENT) went studio to start the recording of the EP.It was fun and now we got loads of overdubs to look forward to.Im going to have to put harmonies down and other instruments are going to be added, including strings. I am so in love with strings, since I was young I always thought about learning the violin and cello. Strings can make me cry trus me! a good string arrangement to me is like kryptonite to superman.lol. (im such a geek)

Oh my days how the hell did I lock myself out of my flat after just settling in there!I just got off the phone to my mum and said that I will see her later. Then I put something in my front door to hold it open whilst I was putting the rubbish out. I walk out my door, happy as a bumblebee, then SLAM! the door shuts. It might as well said 'ha ha' like nelson from the Simpsons. So luckily my neighbours were in and I used their phone and rang my mum and she came with the spare key.I know she secretly loved the fact I had to call her. So much for showing her my independence.lol

Anyways my dears. I'm not totally useless and I have a gig on 28th DEC! FREE ENTRY!FULL BAND!FULL SET! I'm on around 9pm but there's DJs too! So come down and carry on the festive spirit! x

VIBE BAR, THE OLD TRUMAN BREWERY, 91-95 BRICK LANE, E1 6QL

"Jazz Re:freshed presents Obenewa... rather eventful show!!!"

Well..

Hey hey people, well I said I was only gonna do video blogs but I thought I should drop in a written one once in a while. It has been manic for the past couple of weeks with lots of performances and preparing for the EP! I'm so excited but at the same time having mini heart attacks lol. I've been so busy I fell asleep at work today. But boss if you're reading this it was only for 10 mins I swear lol.

Last weekend I performed at an event for Nigerian Comedy.TV. There were many comedians that were funny including a guy called Kevin Jay,who you can see in the video blog.

The father of the late Daniel De-Gale made a speech about the foundation that was inspired by his son to promote bone marrow and blood donation from ethnic minorites. (www.aclt.org)

According to the ACLT, "African Caribbeans have a 1-in-100,000 chance of finding a compatible bone marrow donor, for white people the odds are 1-in-5.

Although there are about 750,000 people registered as donors in Britain, only about 22,000 are of African, African Caribbean or mixed race origin."

His poignant speech resulted in me signing up. With that speech, and other touching experiences in the week, I have been reminded just how precious life is and to enjoy every moment!

LIVE EVERY MOMENT, LAUGH EVERY DAY, LOVE BEYOND WORDS!

Hope to see you at the gig:
