Realist

I featured  Style Like U  in a post a little while back. I have literally become completely obsessed with this blog. For all things inspirational.  This is LadyFag who is a New York based writer and performer from what I gathered. I really loved this interview and found it really interesting so I thought I would share. 

Needless to say I'm a fan of all things poetic and artistic, so yes spoken word is included. I recently completed a very insightful (we'll say) module in college on spoken word, although my module dealt more specifically with gender theory. However it gave me a new appreciation for spoken word. This performer is probably best known for his poem 'OCD' which everyone who has seen it will probably agree that it is incredibly moving and unique. He is really growing to become one of my favourites very quickly. Predominately due to his content. I can't help but consider younger student's responses to such emotive spoken word. I always recall sitting in poetry and people saying 'I don't get it, poetry is so stupid.' I think Neil presents a much more accessible form of poetry. Neil Hilborn 'OCD.' Neil Hilborn 'The Future.'

TLC - No Scrubs. Happy Monday everyone. Hope you all have a good week. Thought I'd return to some 90s R'N'B to start off the week. The song seems to popping up in loads of covers by Bastille and XXYYXX, but we'll stick to the original for now. Enjoy x

An amazing blog I discovered a while ago which discusses everything from sexuality, fashion, tattoos and self expression. It's full of incredible, artistic and inspirational individuals.  Style Like You I've featured just a few images below out of interest. 

I've decided to make a playlist of some my favourite bands and artists of 2013. As you'll see, it's pretty varied. But they are all incredible bands and artists. All very unusual and unique. One band which didn't release their album in 2013 was London Grammar, but I became obsessed with them late last year and thought they deserved a mention. PLAYLIST TRACKS. Bastille - Pompeii This song was almost an instant hit and was on pretty much every radio station whenever I turned on the radio for a while in 2013. They are not a bad to be dismissed as the usual pop band that drift. Their music is unusual and they are clearly enthusiastic about their work and open to experimenting such as the 90's hit TLC cover of 'No Scrub.' HAIM - Failling Undoubtedly one of the best bands to have come out of 2013. Absolutely incredible. I'm completely obsessed with them. Their sound is unique in comparison to any other trio girl group I've heard. The

Since a considerable amount of my audience are American, apparently.. hah. I've decided this would be an appropriate post. It's the new year offically, and I think reconsidering something as simple as food is positive. A lot of you might be going on diets and choosing some healthier lifestyle choices which is always good. This documentary is something which I'm currently studying for college. I had seen this a few years and it really made me reconsider my food choices. I'm not vegan, or vegetarian for that matter, but I like to try to buy locally sourced food and to know where my food is coming from. The reason I'm targeting this at my American audience, is just because this documentary looks at the food system and industry in America. I'm not sure what it's like in comparison to the European one, it seems like a lot more variety. Anyway, without any further delay, Food Inc .
