LYRIC JONES; "LOVE'S TRAIL MIX"!!!
CHOCOLATE Singer/Songwriter/Musician LYRIC JONES has just dropped off her much anticipated EP project, LOVE'S TRAIL MIX!!!
LOVE'S TRAIL MIX is her second official release and she came up with the title as a way to paint the picture of how multi-faceted love is.
LYRIC JONES says;
"Love can be complicated, happy, confused, beautiful, angry, disappointing and magical all at the same time. Trail Mix has a lot of different flavors and textures—but it is still an appealing snack.”LOVE'S TRAIL MIX tells stories of love from various perspectives, but it is short and sweet and parallels the “trail mix” metaphor.

WENDY WILLIAMS On UPTOWN!!!
WENDY WILLIAMS puts on the glitz and glam for THE TRAVEL ISSUE of UPTOWN!!!
Here are some interview highlights:
On her career:
“I regret nothing in my radio career, nothing,” says Williams, who also struggled with substance abuse during those times. She’s publicly stated that she stopped using drugs in the late ’90s because she wanted better for herself, which included being a wife and a mother. “I had to be that person back then to be the person I am today. The person who was on the radio then was authentically me. We all have our sloppy, greasy side. My original Wendy listeners, here in New York, they grew up with me. They come up to me all the time and say, ‘Oh, I have been listening to you since I was 12.’ I feel proud. I am glad that I have been able to evolve.”
On her husband and her son:
“He is my manager, co-executive producer of the show and my biggest productive cheerleader. I love him.” On January 20, 2014, while on-air, Williams broke out in tears, sobbing that her son, Kevin, Jr., 13, does not like her. Despite that emotional episode, she says she is not envious of her son’s strong relationship with his father; in fact, it makes her proud. “I love that he has his father. It’s a great thing, a black boy and his black father,” she says before tearing up. She starts to cry. While reaching for a tissue, she whispers, “Sometimes, I will stand at our front door and watch Little Kev and his father drive off until I see the last puff of smoke from the car’s exhaust. Then, I say to myself, ‘It’s good.’”
On racism:
“It makes me so proud that my black mother and my black father can sit in my audience and the camera can zoom in on them and, without them saying a word, the world sees: ‘Oh my God, there is a full black family!’ And my parents have been married for a hundred years! And, when my black husband and my black behind can pull up to my black son’s school for a parent-teacher night and they see a full black family, that is really important. We need to discuss race not necessarily because I am being followed in the mall because someone knows that I am Wendy Williams, but because I am a black woman in the mall at 2 o’clock in the afternoon.”

GOD In The DARK On TIME!!!
From the moment GOD declared, “Let there be light,” the HOLY SCRIPTURES christened light as holy and condemned darkness to hell!!!~
The Christian liturgy soaked in the theme in the centuries that followed. The BOOK Of COMMON PRAYER addresses GOD as “O LIGHT” and begs, “Be our light in the darkness, O LORD.” Hymns followed suit, from “AMAZING GRACE” to the hit “IN The LIGHT” from Christian hip-hop band dc Talk.
EPISCOPAL Theologian Rev. BARBARA BROWN TAYLOR sees it differently. As impossible as it is to imagine faith without light, it is equally hard to imagine a world without darkness. We are taught to fear darkness as children, she says, when parents line the halls to the bathroom with nightlights to scare away the closet monsters. As we grow older, the monsters take a different shape: darkness descends with the call that a loved one has cancer, months of unemployment, a child with an addiction or an unanswered prayer.
Rev. BARBARA BROWN TAYLOR points out that darkness was often the setting for humanity’s closest encounters with GOD.
* GOD appeared to ABRAHAM in the night and promised him descendants more numerous than the stars.
* The exodus from Egypt happened at night.
* GOD met MOSES in the thick darkness atop MOUNT SINAI to hand down the TEN COMMANDMENTS.
* JESUS was born beneath a star and resurrected in the darkness of a cave.
Author of book, LEARNING To WALK In THE DARK, Rev. BARBARA BROWN TAYLOR faces The DARKNESS, and; explains how it may be the only thing that saves us all for the new issue of TIME.

30 AMERICANS @ CONTEMPORARY ARTS CENTER In NEW ORLEANS!!!
The exhibition, 30 AMERICANS, that is currently on view at the CONTEMPORARY ARTS CENTER (CAC) in NEW ORLEANS until June 15 is attracting attention from those who usually follow the visual arts; and it is also generating excitement among those who follow all other areas of the arts!!!
It presents an exciting broad span of styles and subject matter in contemporary art. And in spite of the general-sounding title, ALL ARTISTS in the exhibition are of AFRICAN Descent.
Just as one goes to the NEW ORLEANS JAZZ & HERITAGE FESTIVAL or the ESSENCE MUSIC FESTIVAL to hear musicians whose talent they follow, visitors are attending “30 Americans” to see artists they admire. And in going, discover artists they may not have heard of yet, but are intensely drawn to upon encountering their work.
This one exhibition fills the entire CAC—all three floors.
Amazing about this fine arts event is the fact that the entire exhibition is part of the private collection of one family.
The artists in the show, actually 31 in all, are: Nina Chanel Abney, John Bankston, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Mark Bradford, Iona Rozeal Brown, Nick Cave, Robert Colescott, Noah Davis, Leonardo Drew, Renee Green, David Hammons, Barkley L. Hendricks, Rashid Johnson, Glenn Ligon, Kalup Linzy, Kerry James Marshall, Rodney McMillian, Wangechi Mutu, William Pope. L, Gary Simmons, Xaviera Simmons, Lorna Simpson, Shinique Smith, Jeff Sonhouse, Henry Taylor, Hank Willis Thomas, Mickalene Thomas, Kara Walker, Carrie Mae Weems, Kehinde Wiley, and Purvis Young.
Some of them have shown in various galleries or museums in NEW ORLEANS, some have not. A few have been widely published in fine arts publications, some have not. All attracted the attention of this serious collecting family, whose overall philosophy has been to collect “ the most interesting art of their time.”
Explaining the title of the exhibition in the catalog, they RUBELL Family says;
“As the show evolved, we decided to call it “30 Americans”, rather than “African Americans” or “Black Americans” because nationality is a statement of fact, while racial identity is a question each artist answers in his or her own way, or not at all.”SUNO Professor in the MASTER OF ARTS In MUSEUM SCIENCE Dr. SARA HOLLIS has the Full 411 on the 30 AMERICANS exhibition in the current issue of the NEW ORLEANS TRIBUNE.

MUGSHOT MAYHEM: LAS VEGAS MASSEUSE STASHED STOLEN ROLEX INSIDE HER VAGINA!!!
Meet CHRISTINA LaFAVE!!!
25-year-old LAS VEGAS Massage Therapist CHRISTINA LaFAVE copped and got popped with a $35,000 ROLEX watch that she managed to stash in the most unlikely of all places - inside her VAGINA.
In January 2014, KENNETH HEROLD met Masseuse CHRISTINA LaFAVE at a bar in the ultra-upscale WYNN CASINO and HOTEL at the northern edge of the LAS VEGAS STRIP.
FOX 5 VEGAS reports KENNETH HEROLD, 66, told police that LaFAVE told HHEROLD she performed "PRIVATE MASSAGES" which would cost him $300.
Herold paid LaFave and the two left for his room.
Herold said that about 30 minutes into the massage, LaFave instructed him to remove his watch, described as a yellow ROLEX PRESIDENTIAL, so she could massage his arm. He placed the watch next to the massage table. About five minutes later, Herold said he noticed the watch missing. LaFave denied having taken it.
Metro police said LaFave became combative with hotel security when they investigated, and she was placed in handcuffs. According to the report, LaFave told Metro police that Herold became upset when she refused to perform a sex act on him without a condom.
According to the report, LaFave later admitted she had the watch, which she had placed inside her vagina.
LaFave was taken to UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER where medical staff performed an X-ray on her and removed the watch.
CHRISTINA LaFAVE was arrested and charged with GRAND LARCENY and POSSESSION Of STOLEN PROPERTY.
She has since been released on $40,000 bail and is set to appear before a judge on Thursday, May 15, 2014.

I LOVE 2 EAT #39: LA FIESTA MEXICAN RESTUARANT!!!
GOOD SATURDAY!!!
Last week, due to Spring Break, Niecy was spending the day with Yours Truly CCG and the whip was badly in need of an Oil Change, so last Friday, April 11; we went to PEP BOYS in UNION CITY to have it serviced.
Right across the street from PEP BOYS...
LA FIESTA MEXICAN RESTAURANT
4790 JONESBORO ROAD
UNION CITY, GA 30291
770.306.2747
We arrived at about 1:15 PM to a house that was at about one-half capacity, and were immediately seated by the hostess.
Minutes later, our server arrived with eating utensils and took our drink orders. She soon returned with our drinks and a complimentary order of Tortilla Chips and Salsa. The chip were light, crispy, and WARM (YES!!!), while the salsa was fresh and SPIIIIICY!!!
Our server was friendly, courteous, knowledgeable of the menu, had a sense of humor, and was VERY accommodating.
The LA FIESTA MEXICAN RESTAURANT MENU is a such virtual cornucopia of all of your favorite dishes from south of the Texas-New Mexico-Arizona-California border, that CCG was led to try the SPINACH ENCHILADAS from the Vegetarian Dishes.
The SPINACH ENCHILADAS DINNER (photo below) is two warm tortillas stuffed with SPINACH (left side of plate), covered in sauce, and smothered in cheese. The Spinach Enchiladas are accompanied by Spanish Rice (top center)and Beans (right).
The Spinach Enchiladas were two tortillas that were nicely warmed and of a reasonable density, such that they were thick enough to contain the filling, BUTT; not so thick that you were with that mouth-full-of-corn-flour feeling. The tortillas were STUFFED with spinach that was well-cooked and lightly-seasoned, yet; still maintained a slight firmness as to not be wimpy. The enchiladas were covered with a lightly-seasoned sauce and smothered in cheese that was natural-melted from the heat of the dish.
The rice was of the Spanish Rice variety, meaning; it begins as steamed white rice, then tomatoes and seasonings are added to give it color and MUCH flavor. The Beans are of the Mexican Refried beans tradition, and did NOT disappoint CCG.
In fact, being a native of the WHO DAT NATION, you know CCG loves Dem BEANS.
Since it was the weekend of the 2014 Masters Golf Tournament, CCG drank Arnold Palmer.
GOOD FOOD, GOOD LOCATION, GOOD SERVICE, GOOD COMPANY, GOOD TIMES!!!
PEACE And BLESSIBGS;

FORBES FIVE: TOP 5 WEALTHIEST ARTISTS In HIP HOP 2014!!!
Listing which HIP HOP artist is the more insanely wealthy, can become a mere exercise in futility when your choices are as filthy stinking rich as 50 CENT, BIRDMAN, JAY-Z, DR. DRE, and P. DIDDY!!!
BUTT, at the world's leading magazine for rich people, about rich people, and by rich people, FORBES; they do it every year.
In their list of the 2014 TOP 5 ARTISTS In HIP HOP, P. DIDDY reigns supreme, but; DR. DRE has begun making strides over JAY-Z.
P. DIDDY, who started his own TV network, REVOLT, in October of 2013, increased his overall fortune by $120 million to a net fortune of $700 million.
JAY-Z increased his net worth from $475 million in 2013 to $520 million in 2014 with the start of his own sports agency, ROC NATION SPORTS. While JAY-Z increased his wealth, he fell to #3 in the 2014 rankings.

LeTOYA LUCKETT On ROLLING OUT!!!
HOUSTON-native Singer/Actress LeTOYA LUCKETT first caught out eyes and ears during the mid 1990's as an original member of the singing group, DESTINY'S CHILD, and then again as a solo artist during the mid-2000's!!!
LeTOYA LUCKETT is now making movies and beautiful musis on her own, and she covers the new issue of ROLLING OUT.
Here are a few interview highlights:
On sympathizing and empathizing with other young ladies on how to learn to love themselves in their own skin;
“I had things about myself that I [didn’t] like. I [would always say] ‘I wish I had this, I wish I had that.’ I used to have this thing about my legs. If you look at all of the Destiny’s Child albums from when I was a part of the group, you never saw me in a skirt. I was always the one who wore the pants, because I felt like my legs were too skinny. You want your boobs to grow; you want all kind of things to happen. Eventually things fill out — and sometimes they fill out too much!”On her role in upcoming biopic film, FROM THE ROUGH, which tells the true story of TENNESSEE STATE UNIVERSITY TIGERS Professor/Former MEN'S GOLF Coach Dr. CANTANA STARKS:
“She did this on her own, by herself without a lot to work with, and she did some amazing things with these boys. Not only in helping them to grow in their craft, but also to grow them up as young men. Taraji did an amazing job with this. She taught me a lot, I learned a lot from just watching her on set. It’s one of the first films [I’ve done.] And the story of [Stark's] life … is just crazy. I was blessed to meet her."On the importance of recognizing and celebrating the sacrifices of our ancestors:
“I think it’s very important, especially in our community, to celebrate the hard work of people who sacrifice themselves and their time to try and better people. And regardless of — especially with Catana — [who] was dealing with things on her own but was so selfless. She opened the doors for so many women. And as a matter of fact, one of the guys she coached ended up being Tiger Woods’ golf coach,”On how she has entered and embraced the acting profession:
“I was kind of thrown into this [acting] thing. My first audition was [the 2010 Christian drama] Preacher’s Kid. Four days before the shoot date, they called and asked me if I wanted to play the lead role. I had not done a movie before — [so] to carry a movie on my back on my own with no training, no nothing? I hadn’t been to school for this! But God had a plan for me. An acting coach, Troy Rowland, guided me through that whole thing. Since then I have been bitten by the bug and I am head-over-heels in love with it. I’m passionate about it. I study; I go to classes. I just want to get better and better and I think with each experience — movie, TV show or whatever — I grow. But it’s harder than it looks. I have a whole new appreciation for my favorite actors now. It’s a wonderful thing to be able to do. And I’m blessed to even have the opportunity to grow in it.”
