Three Of The Most Important Events In Black Music History Looking Black - Radio One Celebrates Black History Month:

)B>\/<\H/>\/<(M

"For centuries African Americans have dominated the American music scene. Black music is in fact America’s original music, and the Spirituals-Blues-Jazz-Gospel-Charleston-Twist-HipHop gift is the foundation not only of rhythm and blues but also of Broadway and The Grammys. Read about three of the most important moments in Black Music History below: 1. 1660 – 1860. In the most stupendously creative act in American cultural history, the “Black and unknown bards” of slavery created the Spirituals and the foundations of the blues and American dance. Everything that followed–Broadway, the Grammys, Gershwin, the Cakewalk, the Moonwalk, the Electric Slide–is an elaboration of the original. 2. 1870’s – 1920’s. Creation of blues by post-slavery blacks in Texas, Alabama, Tennesse, Mississippi, everywhere led to the first written blues, “The Memphis Blues”, published in 1912, and great blues singers like Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith."

Urban Dictionary: sheila

YEAH..!!!!!!.>

WHAT THE HELL..

WHERE DO THEY GET THIS STUFF

Urban Dictionary: sheila:

my comment:

this is astounding..never knew

a name could vurtuously

become a story read.. wow!!!! Sheila generally refers to an australian girl. Sheilas still believe haircuts

from the 80´s are sexy. With a tendency to show alot of their sagging breats, sheilas will always be found with a beer in one hand

and a ciggarette in the other. The only time when you will find a sheila without

any of the 2 possesions mentioned above is when their alcoholic 4th husband has bashed

them because of sculling the last beer or smoking the last ciggarette, and they are on the

floor licking up whats left of the beer or trying to

sticky tape the broken ciggie back togther.

Sheilas always curse asians and wear

too much make up(usually to cover their black eyes). These girls have kids at 16.... as soon as they become eligible for the governments

´baby scheme´ where $3000 is awarded to new mums for encouragement,

as australia has a population issue. Found in pubs at around 9:00am or centrelink/

welfare offices(standard opening time for both venues) sheilas are fond of kareoke and will not hesitate in

sexual intercourse with a minor. Shelias are very malnutritioned and in the

mornings look

very similar to ´gollum´ from lord of the rings.

Sheilas speak very slang

australian english to

accomodate their under-privellged brains....

blah.blah..blah..blah..

**My verse>c{{^_}}?**

Now..if u think for

one moment

all sheilas ARE BORN

SLOW..

wasting time..loooking

like ..moms mably

from o;Ol'skool

black vaudeville days..

letting her self go

listen..

ur sadly mistaken

I am my most valuable

assets..

the Queen of hearts

met..the JEWEL of the Nile

drenched..in tears of

liquid radience..She shines like the

flow of substance..the GOLD

wore..24kt..HOT

lava..melting all

who becomes the entrance

to her heart..

But

handles u on pins and needles

captures the thrill of

positive verse and poetic

appeal

the nature 2 roar when

the time is necessary

lift every audience member

listening

sheila takes them home

thinking..

I can feel her presence

her Elements..her

charm..what breaks it down

from the time she

speaks..until there is..

no more WORDS..

left

2 IDENTIFY..

(POETRY)..australia

get a grip..

I GAVE MY TIME ..LOVE AND DEVOTION TO MY MOM..the job wanted to have a sit in..on the matter..so I went back for the meeting..questions were ask about what happen..things I knew..i wouldn't give any information..I knew of the affair with management..the young lady 25..was the manager..he was the cook..pressure robbed me day and night..my skills WERE LACKING..went on for months, going along with them..feeling like a fool..with no direction or pride in myself...for this..

I left Host marriots Services..

I Gave the following months to my mother...left it all behind..

her body became fragile..

dropped about 60 pounds throughout the months..she had CANCER..the reality sank in..

I had to be with her..when she fell one morning over my head..where I stay in the basement..

the sound went all through my body..her room was above mines..I ran as fast as I could.. upstairs..where my brother said was that mother..where he commence to open her bedroom door..she use to keep it locked for her privacy...when he got it open ..my mother was on the floor..with her head on the bed and her body, legs were turned another way..he lifted her up..where trauma emerged within , I cried , held her close and said..don't worry mom..were here for u..they found a blood clot in her leg..plus...the family had to be called to a meeting..where the doctor's diagnosed her as Having..Dementia..she is very sick..preparations are in order for her days ahead, so ..as u can see..it is now 2010,JAN 29..MY mom was laid to rest...this past Monday..it's been very complicating to say the lest..I am working on going back to work..fulfilling the dreams ,,she would want me to and..keeping close friendships..even if it's been hard to swallow..my attitude wasn'i w/it ..that was trauma 4 me as well..But, in all ..I am thankful.for the many people that came to her funeral..neighbors,..out of town friends who my brother and I went to school with from..SC.FLORIDA..VA..COUSINS..AUNTS..my uncle adolph wasn't able to attend..my AUNT..EUNICE AS WELL wasn't there..she's in a nursing home..and my uncle ..who lives in Boston was retired ..91..sick w/ diabetes..aide provided..(him and my departed AUNT that died
