LISTEN: ASA the SINGING HAWK


FRENCH SINGER-SONGWRITER and RECORDING ARTIST ASA has randomly caught my attention while shopping in BLOOMINDALES. Her smooth JAZZY voice & strong SOUL has been so BEAUTIFUL to LISTEN to which was came in PERFECT timing for the SPRING season. ASA has released two ALBUMS "ASHA" & "BEAUTIFUL IMPERFECTION". One of my FAVORITE songs that she has released is "Jailer" it's basically explaining to the PRISON GUARD that they(the prisoners) are just as trapped as the [PRISONER who he GUARDS. ASA was the only GIRL of a family of FOUR KIDS. Born in PARIS, FRANCE to NIGERIAN PARENTS she sings SOUL & JAZZ. You can purchase ASA'S ALBUM on ITUNES or check her WEBSITE at www.asa-official.com

SEE:HOMOSEXUALITY in UGANDA



Why is the WORLD so BRUTAL against one another? Shouldn't LOVE be LEGAL EVERYWHERE? It's extremely disturbing how the world thinks today its 2011 & everyone still has no EQUAL RIGHTS. Its really SAD that something so BEAUTIFUL as LOVE can cause so many ISSUE's in the WORLD we LIVE in TODAY. One of the MAJOR issues that caught my attention for sometime now that has been really DISTURBING is the "issue" of HOMOSEXUALITY in UGANDA. UGANDA is a country in EAST AFRICA known as the "PEARL OF AFRICA". In UGANDA, HOMOSEXUALITY is ILLEGAL! GAYS & LESBIANS encounter discrimination and harassment from the groups such as TEACHERS, AUTHORITY, MEDIA & etc. This country makes it HARD for PEOPLE to LIVE & LOVE because of there SEXUALITY. This country has created a ANTI-HOMOSEXUALITY BILL which says HOMOSEXUALITY is a CRIME & anyone who is HIV-POSITIVE, engages in SEXUAL ACTS with people of the SAME SEX or with those under 18 years of age will be SENTENCED to DEATH. HOWEVER the PEOPLE of UGANDA has already taken the LAW into there own HANDS by kicking them out of there HOMES, lost of JOBS, PUBLISHED a list of allegedly GAY MEN(that listed the names, addresses, and photographs of 100 homosexuals alongside a yellow banner that read "Hang Them"), PHYSICALLY ABUSING & KILLING HOMOSEXUALS in UGANDA. How can someone be so FOOLISH to say HOMOSEXUALITY is a HABIT & compare it to DRUGS & ALCOHOL, I honestly WISH people were less IGNORANT. It's basically better to be a MURDERER & RAPIST than to be a HOMOSEXUAL....SAD
