MrJamilJasey

As you know PGL Radio had an excellent show last Wednesday. Some beautiful words tickled our earlobes and our thought pattern as we listened attentively. Wednesday night we will have a special guest for you by the name of Jamil Jasey if you haven’t heard of him, you will know him by the end of the show on Wednesday!  Mr. Jamil started performing with a local and still Richmond’s Own Spoken Word Variety Show Troupe LYRIC AVE in October 2003. His first taste at performing to an audience, Jamil continue to hone his craft. Lyric Ave led to other performances at TUESDAY VERSES and other venues around the city. A friend and fellow cast member NAZDAK gave Jamil the name MAN U. SKRIPT and a new performer was born. Check him out as he graces us with his presence on Wednesday @11pm est 8pm pst on PGL Radio.  You can hear and learn more about Mr. Jamil Jasey by visiting Reverbnation.

crying-woman2

Hot tears burning my eyes, I refused to cry giving in. No longer believing in happy ever after…queue the laughter. No longer trying to win, should have never got in…But trying not to sin… I let him come in and try to take over, a no limit solider. Doing what my momma said not to do. “Girl, don’t you let no man control you” I hear you mama, it’s too late I said…quieting down momma’s voice in my head. You’ve made your bed now, in it you’ve got to lay. Does that mean I have to stay? Through all of the disappointments and all of the pain…in the words of that song…through the sunshine and through the rain. Still continue to make that drive to work…I knew this shyt was gonna hurt telling him how much he is a jerk and why I should have never to that step. Trying to put back together what’s left of this relationship, no longer keeping my lips sealed…not even giving him something he can feel…it ain’t gonna happen it’s over I’m done…why do I have to keep fighting with you in front of our son. He’s looking at us with a little pain on  his face…I do not want him to be a part of the place that we’re in, I’m getting ready to leave, finally letting the tears fall, rubbing my eyes on my sleeve…I can’t continue to go through this, it’s taking away from me all of my hopes and wishes. No more sweet kisses, no more holding hands, no more wedding bands. Just emptiness where love once was. You can’t make love; you can love and be loved. Not yelling and screaming and throwing fist, not kicking and punching and having fits, all because you can’t get your way…you can’t have your say…I’ll say it for you. I’m leaving today…

~On The Air~
Posted (PhatGurlLove) in Features, Obesity, Open Mic, Poetry, Spoken Word on September-11-2009

Phatgurllove Radio is coming soon! We will talk about all issues related to being Obese and Overweight. I will speak to BBW’s and BHM’s. We will discuss their experiences and how it has shaped their life. Dating, children, employment, and socialization are all affected when overweight. I will be playing the best of Old School, R&B, Hip-Hop, and Neo-soul radio. I am so excited about this. This has been a long time coming! There will also be an open mic session on a weeknight. (TBD) There will also be a Poem of the day related to the show topic. Sometimes there will be a co-host! I look forward to hearing from you. Please be ready to call in and share or chat with us! Below is some information that I found quite disturbing…..

FYI: Obesity by Race and Ethnicity

New Obesity Data Shows Blacks Have the Highest Rates of Obesity

Blacks had 51 percent higher prevalence of obesity, and Hispanics had 21 percent higher obesity prevalence compared with whites. (2006-2008)

Greater prevalences of obesity for blacks and whites were found in the South and Midwest than in the West and Northeast. Hispanics in the Northeast had lower obesity prevalence than Hispanics in the Midwest, South or West.

Retrieved from here…

We need to do something and fast! We have a generation of children out there that need us and we must set an example for them by being able to be healthy and eat right so we can grow old with our children. Lead by example! Want to get started early? Go here and view some nice simple and HEALTHY recipes. If you know of any other sites, please leave them in the comment section and I will be sure to provide you with my review of the site and give them a shout out when on the air! Thanks to any new subscribers and thank you to the ones that have been hanging on! Your walk with me is greatly appreciated!
