Mike Ibrahim wrote “Spring Rain” which is featured in the film “Finding Me”. This picture was taken last summer in the east village, when Mike & I met for the first time.  He’s now signed with Polydor/Universal France, so look out for him in the record stores soon:)

This is so beautiful I had to share it with everyone.  Karen visited the beach and made this beautiful arrangement and was kind enough to share it with me.  I’ve named it Karen’s Kreativity – hope you enjoy:)

We had a great time at the Brooklyn Society of Ethical Culture at the Verve Series.  I’m looking forward to our Holiday show on December 20.  Michael Flanagan captured a few of the moments, check them out below:)

Guyana Fashion Weekend 2008 was pretty amazing.   The designs were innovative and reflected the rich culture and heritage, and it felt really good to be back home - enjoying good food, weather, family and friends.    A big thank you for Walter Greene and Sonia Noel.

I was a part of the uni aum Entertainment team for the 2008 AIDS Walk in New York City, I was really happy to see how many high school kids out walking and being aware of this disease and raising money to help fight this tragedy.  Check out the pics below:)

Here are a few pics of me with some celebrities I’ve had the opportunity to meet.  I meet John Legend just before he got signed.  He was performing at Joes Pub – he was really down to earth.   I really admire what he creates.  Another artist I really admire is Lizz Wright – she is so beautiful:)

Marilyn McCoo, Robert Allan Arno, Billy Davis Jr, and Nhojj

On May 20, I had the honor of meeting Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis after their show at the Cafe Carlyle.  My friend Robert Allan Arno (who has written many of their liner notes) made it possible.  The show was amazing, I am still singing “Let the Sun shine” - and meeting them was a dream come true.  Thank you Robert:)

This was my gig at the Cutting Room in NYC, these pictures were taken while I was singing “I Miss You” Its the first time I worked with acting coach Robert Allan Arno. He really helped me communicate this song.

Many people compliment me on my smile… which is interesting, because for a long time I didn’t like my smile. Its just another example that proves that we should love everything about ourselves, especially those things we believe are flaws – you never know it may be your best attribute:)

It was good to return to the Five Spot in Brooklyn, we had done the “Underground to Peace + Unity” there in 2003 and over the years I’ve performed there many times. The Five Spot is a kewl spot, if you ever get a chance visit it and enjoy the soul food (I love soul food:)
