    COVID Crisis in our Community

     

    Singer, Jeremih (Update)

    Singer Jeremih is reportedly doing better since leaving the ICU this past weekend due to a COVID-19 related illness. A message confirmed by his DJ T. Taylor from a recent Instagram story post that states Jeremih was praising God for his recovery, and the information trended heavily on Twitter. We are glad he is a COVID-19 survivor. This COVID-19 Crisis is a wake-up call.

    On a previous blog post (https://www.ramellecartermedia.com/corona-virus-covid-19) back in March. For instance, I defined the COVID-19 dangers in a setting that gave a clear picture of the terror lurking our way. We all have a job not to be reckless. Specifically, stay healthy and mindful of our safety.

    Although many people of all class, size, economic background, and race can get ill from COVID, my focus today involves my people, which are 2.6x higher according to the CDC, to get the virus. https://www.cdc.gov;  my community is hit the hardest. Therefore, we really need to stick together and build wonderful groups around us with good, safe goals to help us really get back on the road to healing. COVID-19 is taking our people out, with young and old, being affected. Singer Jeremih is just one in a handful of African American celebrities to be victims of this virus.

    Also, the Black/Brown Community can not fall on our knees and wait for help. However, we need to call out any groups who lack responding and assisting in our recovery. African-Americans can no longer allow our families to sit down and die. Black Lives Matter must continue fighting against police brutality by marching the streets with masks and following all social distancing protocols.

    In other words, learn, read, and listen to our local elected officials while keeping your families safe. The changing times are above all filled with differences we all need to step up and maintain, think good thoughts, use time wisely, practice self-care, and whenever possible, do positive things around the house to keep spirits high. Moreover, call/text a loved one, friend, or special one to say, “How are you doing? Lastly, let’s shoutout those who tested positive and won.

    1. Idris Elba
    2. NBA Kevin Durant
    3. Kenny “Babyface” Edmunds
    4. NBA Patrick Ewing
    5. DL Hughley
    6. Atlanta Mayor, Keisha Lance Bottoms
    7. Tiffany Haddish
    8. Rapper Scarface
    9. NBA Russell Westbrook
    10. Sheree Whitfield
    11. Usain Bolt
    12. The Rock
    13. Rapper Slim Thug

  • Gospel Artist, Chris Bolton

     

    This past Friday, I had the distinct pleasure of speaking with Gospel Artist, Chris Bolton, about his upcoming tour honoring Caregivers.

    Why Chris Bolton Sings…

    Interview:

    Ramelle:   Hong long have you been singing?
    Chris:  I have been singing since the age of 6 years old, I am originally from the Chicago area, and my grandfather sang in a quartet, so singing has just been in my blood. I started professionally when I turned 19, with background vocals for Mary Mary. Andre Crouch which to me was a blessing. I currently can be heard on the intro of Snoop Dogg’s Gospel CD titled Bible of Love.
    Ramelle:   You have an upcoming tour called the Chris Bolton Experience Tour.,  giving honor to Caregivers (a family member or paid helper who regularly looks after a child or a sick, elderly, or disabled person) tell me why such an honor.
    Chris:    The Chris Bolton Experience shows are because I became a Caregiver to my mother who passed away from breast cancer; many times, when our parents get older, we want to put them in a nursing home, and I could not do this to my mother.  I stepped up; it was a struggle, now I want to help give information about programs available to Caregivers, and about Caregiver solutions. I did not know about them when I cared for my mother, so this is something definitely from my heart.
    Ramelle:    This is wonderful; lastly, the great, Aretha Franklin has passed, do you have a favorite song by her?
    Chris:   Oh, wow, I love all of Aretha Franklin music, I mean, she touched on every genre, from gospel, classical, R&B, but my favorite has to be “Natural Woman.”
    I want to thank Chris Bolton for the interview; please Click the links (below) to find out more about his Caregiver Tour, and support a Blogger who stays positive.

    JP Cali Smoov

    On April 1, 2017, I had the pleasure of witnessing an intense performance by Hip Hop Artist and Entrepreneur from the Westside JP Cali Smoov (hold up those dubs). What a phenomenal experience;  the entire RiverRock Lounge was lit. John Paul Misquez (JP Cali Smoov) is keeping West Coast hip-hop music alive; not that it was ever dead. His passion is just as present as any past West Coast artist.

    JP Cali Smoov’s performance of his hit single, Already Hit It soared at RiverRock in Studio City. Especially relevant were guest performances who were themselves unique. JP Cali Smoov is a leading man in the ever-changing Hip-Hop industry. A champion battle rapper, earning a Lead Role, in a Reality Web Show hosted, starring, and produced By Snoop Dogg called “Take Flight On-Site” Snoopadelic Films.

     

           JP Cali Smoov has his feet planted to success, not only as a hip-hop artist, actor, aspiring clothing designer with launching his Black Sheep Club clothing line, transforming the game his way. The demeanor of the crowd was consequently outstanding. It took me to a new level of admiration for the hip-hop movement. Sometimes people think of hip-hop artists in a negative aspect, but that is the farthest from the truth.

         JP Cali Smoov most of all is an exceptional overcomer. He spent his early childhood in and out of the foster care system in Los Angeles until moving to Chicago as a teenager.  A fatal car crash took the life of his two best friends making him the lone survivor. After heart surgery from a torn aorta, broken arm, and rigorous rehabilitation, he made hip-hop music his passion. Most noteworthy, that alone should inspire anyone to take charge of life. JP Cali Smoov turned his negativity into positivity. It seems he found the ability, determination, and aspiration to move forward. Hence, watch and see what he does next.
