On Tiffany Evans, Rihanna and Grey's Anatomy

OK so its everywhere that Tiffany Evans the girl who sang Promise Ring with Ciara is attacking Rihanna for that her Russian Rou-whatever song... Look at her comments...

According to The Examiner, Tiffnay said:

"Russian Roulette= Suicidal Rate gon sky rocket!



You gotta watch what u say. Because there are a lot of weak people in the world. They are susceptible to anything so anything you say or do some people actually do listen. So make sure its nothing bad. Its okay to be deep,but not murder deep.
Man! I really wish I could tell you guys what the industry really is and what stars are apart of destroying this world. The stars who worship satan,and those who have killed to get the respect they have now. You’d be verrrry surprise. Some of your favorite people pretend to worship God but they only do that to save face. Or seem innocent.
Satan was head of music in heaven. He uses influential people…to help influence the world. Think about that. Once u make a certain amount of money. Just know that that’s when they ask u to join. To get in you have accept the beast, worship. Once you join they assist u with ur career.make u huge.only if u agree and obey to destroy Gods word.and his children.
Ppl listen and pay attention. Its a war going on right now between Good and Evil. Evil will rule this world for a min. The people that have this power are the people that RULE the whole world. I’m done I won’t say anymore before I get in trouble."



OK.. this is strange coming from the chic who is not even a Christian singer... hmmn..not saying anything...
 
Anyways, Rihanna said:
 
Tiffany Evans. She’s just mouthing off for no reason actin’ like she knows me. The whole devil worshipping thing, she put out this whole statement”.


Hmmn.. You can listen to the audio here

Anyways.. I miss Grey's Anatomy and I feel like watching it now. I love the last episode in season five and the first episode in season six.. That's the best too me sha... Here are some pics

This is when Izzie "died". Alex is so in love with her



This is when George writes 007 on Meredith's palm... so touching



Trying to save George O'malley's life...


O'malley's Funeral... a sad day indeed

Let me point out here that I am in no way affliatedwith the producer of Grey's Anatomy and I am not endorsing the show for your viewing... I am just saying... I like the show... and (this is subject to change..lol)
 
 
So guys.. this is where I sign off..enjoy life people.. You only got one chance at it... Imma leave y'all with three amazing quotes from Grey's Anatomy...
 
1. Meredith (narrating): According to Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, when we're dying or have suffered a catastrophic loss, we all move through five distinct stages of grief. We go into denial because the loss is so unthinkable we can't imagine it's true. We become angry with everyone, angry with survivors, angry with ourselves. Then we bargain. We beg. We plead. We offer everything we have, we offer our souls in exchange for just one more day. When the bargaining has failed and the anger is too hard to maintain, we fall into depression, despair, until finally we have to accept that we've done everything we can. We let go. We let go and move into acceptance.
 
2. Meredith (narrating): In medical school, we have a hundred lessons that teach us how to fight off death, and not one lesson on how to go on living.
 
3. Richard: You people answer your pages! George O'Malley jumped in front of a bus today. He knew what he was doing and he did it anyway. And he did it to save a life. So, I'm not gonna allow you doctors to stand here. There are lives on the line. There are lives we can save. So, if George O'Malley can jump in front of a bus, we can answer our damn pages. So, lets go.(everyone leaves) Damn it. Damn it O'Malley.
 
Trotcha!!!

Hallelujah!!!

OK... I am really excited. Exams are offcially over... even though I won't be able to go home for the three week break and all. It is all good sha. The exams were amazing and I thank God for His many many many many mercies.... LOL!!!

OK.. so I saw Sherlock Holmes and I ahve to say that the movie is AMAZING!!! Roberet Downey Jnr never disappoints and he reminds me of Hugh Jackman anytime anyday...

I really don't have much to say now but all in all..stay cool guys and BTW.... I DEY FIND WORK OH!!!

Peace out.

Trotcha!!!

PS: I want to have a Spoken Word event in April called Poetically Speaking... If you are intrested in any way please email me at harryitie@gmail.com and the mixtape is coming soon so watch out.

Thoughts...

Hey y'all...

I am in reflection mode right now... I saw My Sisters Keeper and God knows I wanted to cry. I am still wondering what happened to the tears.  The movie is so amazing and I love what it talks about and the issue it address and that Abigail chic is really impressing me. She is an amazing actress and I have to give the credit to her. I have been thinking what will I do if my sister had cancer or if any one I loved had cancer and worst of all if they had to die!!! I don't even want to think about it. The thoughts is freaking me out...

I used to think that cancer was a disease that we Africans most especially Nigerians were immune to but I was wrong. Even my grandpa died of prostrate cancer... and there is Seun

In this light.. Can we please pray for every cancer patient in the world? They are in so much pain and people overlook them a whole lot. Everyone's concern is HIV patients... It's all good tho

Random Question: What do you do if you like someone who is in a relationship?

Take care guys...

Trotcha!!!

Am I in love or like? Is it just a crush or mere infatuation?

OK....seriously.. I need to know why you have been on my mind for days now... I really need to know why you wont just leave me alone...

OK..that is weird... Anyways, how you guys been? I read your comments on the last post and I really appreciate it. Truth is, I was thinking the same thing and y'all just confirmed it. Thanks again...

There is really nothing to talk about today apart from the fact that I am liking somebody like that... It's all good... I am just hoping it is for real..

Anyways, take care guys and check out The Eden Project. There is an update there and a question I will love for you to answer...

Trotcha!!!

Kinda dont have a name for this post... But You'll love it!

Hey y’all,

I have been chilling since my last blog post. Nothing major has happened. It has been the same old story. I have been listening to Sho Baraka’s Turn My Life Up album a whole lot and the album has been ministering to me in so many ways. Favourite tracks are 100, Be Scientific, Music of Life and Love of my Life. If you like, hip-hop and you do not have his album; you had better go get it.

Maybe it is I but for a while, I have been looking at some students in my class and in my school in general and I have concluded that they are so IMMATURE! OK. You might probably ask why I am saying this and I am even mature myself. Truth is I may not be “mature” but there is one thing I know, that is the fact that these people are not people to look up to in Maturity School. The things they do, the things they say... it is as if they do not have things to think about. Anyways, I have learnt not to talk about people if I have not walked a mile in their shoes so let us just say I rest my case. My own is not that they should rub their immaturity in my face abi?

I watched Julie & Julia and honestly, I loved the movie. The deal is that I want to start a project, kind of like the Julie/Julia project. Thing is I am currently managing four blogs; this one, Anani Speaks, Kiss & Tell( Which is undergoing restructuring) and The Eden Project. What do I do? I have a couple of ideas but I honestly don’t know what to? Should I create another blog? Can I handle it? If you feel, I should go ahead, what do you think I should do? I will really appreciate your comments on this one though. God bless you as you comment.

So, forget the time and date you see on this article, I wrote this article on the 24th of January 2010 at exactly 4pm. I have to go read HMD 411 people. Peace y’all!


Trotcha!

Check out this video though...

On Facebook and Azazel...

I just had to blog about this.... OK..different peeps have been saying that my friends on facebook are too much... So I decided to go a-deleting today and I realized that I knew most of the people on my facebook list and I am not kidding. It was kinda weird but it is the truth so I have decided to let it be... What can I do...

I am really happy that y'all were touched by the blog list I did it because I wanted to appreciate y'all to keep em blog posts coming but I forgot one blogger... I am sorry but you know forgetting was not intentional. He is the most controversial blogger in Nigeria (That's what I think). His name is Azazel and even though we have conflicting opinions on God, he still shows this blog some love and he is a good friend... (we go way back)

Forgive me guys for this but I gotta break the ice though... I have a new laptop..I have had it for a while and I am sorry I have not told y'all.. wasn't ready to go public (that sounds stupid).

Exams have been amazing. In a particular course,  60 As were recorded from my class. The remaining 15 students had Bs and cs... God is so awesome!!!

That's all folks and remember... Life is beautiful baby!


watch out... The album drops this year...

I Need to Love My Life...

Yes, I really do.

I do not know the idea you already have of what this article is going to be about but the truth is I need to love my life. I need to be content with how far God has brought me. I have noticed that for the last couple of weeks, I have been focusing my attention on the wrong things. The thing is, I graduate in July (by God’s grace) and I have been thinking a whole lot. I want to have a good job, live in a nice house and drive a nice car... you know now the kind of life the average guy dreams of, the one where he is all fresh and all the ladies are loving him and he is popular... you get the picture now right?

Truth is, you might see this as normal... I see it as unhealthy.

Luke 12:31- But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you (KJV).

I love the way The Message Bible puts it

Steep yourself in God-reality, God-initiative, and God-provisions. You'll find all your everyday human concerns will be met.

When I say I need to love my life, I mean I need to go back and focus on what is truly important. I am not saying that having a nice life is wrong. The problem wrong here is focusing on the nice life instead of the Father. God has said that if we seek him out totally, consuming ourselves in His reality, His initiative, His provisions, He will give us all that we need and more. All our human concerns and everything that we consider important will be giving to us.

I wish a lot and I am so thankful wishes do not come true. I wish for many things; money, fame, popularity... yes, I do. This past few weeks have me thinking, what do I want my life to count for? Is this what I my life to be about? Do I actually want to miss God’s amazing perfect plan for my life? Will coveting material things bring me the peace and satisfaction that I truly desire? Truth is I need to love my life. I need to love the life that Jesus died for on the cross of Calvary. He did not die for it so I can lay my treasures on earth. He died for it so that I can glorify His name and that of the Father. He died for it so that I can cast all my cares on Him because He cares for me. He wants to handle that aspect all I have to do is love Him and submit myself to His will.

I need to start loving my life... starting by loving God.

What exactly is wrong with Avatar????


I just have to ask this question becasue I need to know. I watched the movie and I LOVED IT!!! And so did most people (I think)... so right now I am curious to know cause apparently a few people including Russian Communist, US Marines and even the Vatican are not like the movies biggest fans... So to all wo have seen the movie...What is wrong with it??? Am I just fooled by the hype, I mean the Vatican says the movie encourages the worship of nature??? So opinions people...

BTW, I have two new blogs I want you guys to follow. The first one is Anani Speaks and it is my spoken word blog (Yes, I am now an upcoming Spoken word artist) and the second one is The Eden Project. Now, the thing about The Eden Project is that the blog is strictly gospel as the aim is to find our way abck to God's original plan for hummanity. Like sheep, we have strayed and we want to know what God's plan was for mankind before man fell in the garden... The Bible makes it clear that after God saw all that was created He said it was good... why then did He later regret creating man... Also, we know Jesus as come and all but the truth is are we living the life that Jesus died for us to have. These are some of the questtions we intend to answer with this blog...


So people, remember to drop your comments and follow the blogs.. Imma hola soon...

Trotcha!

... That's how The Lost Get Found

This song is too amazing. I was listening to it last night and I began to wonder how we tend to get selfish and say we are tired of serving God or life is too harsh on us... the truth is... we should not give up because we are the light of the world and that is not suppose dot be a cliche... We need to stay constantly in Lampmode as Applejaxx says in his song with Jekob Washington (Which is amazing if I should add)... We don't know who we might touch in the process... we need to keep on keeping on... Here are the lyrics to the song...

Hello my friend
I remember when you were
So alive with your wide eyes
Then the light that you had in your heart was stolen
Now you say that it ain't worth stayin'
You wanna run but you're hesitatin'
I'm talkin' to me

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
'Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found

So when you get the chance
Are you gonna take it?
There's a really big world at your fingertips
And you know you have the chance to change it
There's a girl on the streets, she's cryin'
There's a man whose faith is dyin'
Love is calling you

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
'Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found

Why do we go with the flow
Or take an easier road?
Why are we playin' it safe?
Love came to show us the way
Love is a chance we should take
I'm movin' out of the way

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
'Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
(Stand out)
Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
(Stand out)
'Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found

So when you get the chance
Are you gonna take it?
There's a really big world at your fingertips
And you know you have the chance to change it

Love the song... check out the video...I had posted it here before...

Also check out my Spoken Word blog here

Swagger Like Him (Introducing Anani)


Hey guys, what's good? Most of you have been wondering who what Anani is doing in my name and all... So here is the deal, I am starting a career as a Spoken Word artist and Anani is my performance name... I feel it is what God is calling me to do so I am gonna do it. Watch out for some of my work on the Volume 2 of the Emunah Mixtape. Here are the lyrics to my first major work. Hope you like it...

Nobody has got swagger like Him,

Not on earth, not even in the heavens.

Do you want to know why?

 The earth is His and the fullness thereof,

All that is in it is sustained through Him.

The mountains declare His greatness,

The trees stand in awe of His majesty,

The flowers cannot comprehend His beauty,

The oceans are not as deep as His love for me, for you.

So I ask again who has got swagger like Him?

I searched everywhere, anywhere,

I found no one, no one at all,

The angels live to sing His praises,

He is the King of the heavens,

The Lord of the skies,

The highest heavens cannot contain Him,

The angelic host proclaim “Holy is our God”.

So I say that it is impossible to have swagger like Him,

He was there before the word was formed,

And He will be there when the word fades away.

Who can have swagger like Him?

Among the gods, among principalities, among powers, among men,

No one, absolutely no one.

He is I AM THAT I AM,

Yahweh, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob,

The First and the Last,

He lavishes His love on those who love and obey Him,

He is a gracious and merciful King,

He makes all things new and beautiful too,

He is love, giver of the law, the Judge who us mighty to save,

The One who is, who always was and who is still to come,

The Almighty One, the Ancient of Days,

The King of swagger.


Feedback please...
