1. The angels leave me messages, reminding me to keep my head and hopes high. 2. After a wave hits, the aftermath leaves me puzzled. Uncertain about what awaits tomorrow. Less anxiety, more peace. It’s ok to let yourself be emptied. 3. Equal parts suburban and urban. A child una foreign woman’s body. Gratitude for the innocence she remains whole in. 4. Two sides of the same paper bag, it’s okay to be soft on the inside. To ask for a hug. To laugh and love without abandon. To dream despite the clouds that surround us. 5. Old friends & new friends, all is family. Music binds us beyond blood. 6. Spotlight on a diva. Always take advantage of a great line of sight. 7. Before the shenanigans, there was a beat face. Beauty is her name. 8/9. Legends on legends on legends. We stand on their shoulders. 10. Food is still a love language. #photodumps #weekendsbelike #artistlife #familydearte #musicalbloodlines #love #loveheals #healing #thegodisgreiving #thegodiswriting #photography #poems #shortpoems #blahvol3 #rippatrickadams🎛️🎶 #discoprincess #hope #live #blm https://www.instagram.com/p/CiKt1ToO4Wc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#whyishine This be why I shine like sun And glisten like moon and stars against the velvet night sky I wear my sunglasses at night because I’ve always existed in the gleaming rays of my parents… Most notable, my mother, a Diva’s Diva by all accounts. I span the massive crowd around me and cry funeral tears at the legacy that love has built. This love, this undying dedication to the rhythm… the unabashed abandon to which we give our whole hearts on the dance floor to the beat… this community that makes us a legacy, this love that makes us immortal..: This knowledge that we either choose to claim our divinity or surrender to the shadows… This is why we are here… And we gon be alright! #AllIsWell We are loved. We are safe. We are free. Long live the music of our hearts. #thegodiswriting #thegodisgreat #writer #blackhistory #livinghistory #blackicons #discodiva #discoprincess #rippatrickadams #rippatrickadams🎛️🎶 #alwaysandforever #musicalbloodlines #legacy #legacykid #daddysgirl #community #paradisegaragereunion #PG #GarageHeads #HouseMusic #Dancemusic #allnight #forthelove #fortheculture (at The Brooklyn Mirage) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiIgLE_O44F/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#TrendingNews The Nigerian government recently banned the use of non-Nigerian models in commercials & advertisements in their country, saying that they want to “strengthen their own economy and support local talent” . What do you think of this move? Is it too much or not enough? Let us know in the comments below!!

It’s been a day. @icecube #voice Today was a good day. I am happy. I am whole. We are safe. We are loved. We are free. #mantras #wegonbealright Thank you to all the family and friends and fans that came out to honor my father & best friend. I don’t have the words but I will soon. You are appreciated. You are the real MVP’s for believing in him to make his legacy possible. It’s not an ending, it’s a new beginning. The next chapter. The next book in the series #BLAHV3 I love you. I hope you love yourself and each other. Thank you @spahasoul for providing a wonderful atmosphere and meal for us to gather and celebrate and be together. People drove in from other states for this day and you made it feel like home for us all. #RIPPatrickAdams #DaddysGirl #EnergyNeverDies https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch3oNF_sRDI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In this process of grieving, i am finding that it’s most important how I #TalkToMyself What I say to me when I feel defeated and overwhelmed, determines whether I get out of bed or not. What I say to me when I feel intimidated or as if I am@not enough, determines if I will still allow myself to shine in/on the world.. if I will try one more time.. or if I will surrender to defeat. If I will write another poem. Take another picture… Drop another verse Love myself more than enough to love them too.. #selftalk has made the indisputable difference between me giving up or going in… And I’m still here. I’m not going a damn place no time soon.. I love me [and them] too much to stop now. #SongOfTheDay is “Talk To Myself” by @mercthebigbodybenz feat @mankindmusicacademy #talktoyounice #selfcare #selftalkisselfcare #begoodlivewell #rbjglobal #pleasurerevolution #blackjoi #thegodiswriting https://www.instagram.com/p/Chnl9z_Oxd0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Todays photo set is called “reunited” or “people i’m most obsessed with in the world” or “the incredible May Flowers Collective” Or “why I am so incredible” Or “three generations of magical Black women” Whatever it’s called, I’m so grateful for them and this time we get together. #girlstrip #ladiesnight #rbjglobal #blackjoy #wearefamily #musicallegacy #discoprincesses (at Amsterdam, Netherlands) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChcdL9LrW_5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
