Hear about his career and how he became number one!! It all began in 1979, at the age of twenty, Kurtis Blow became the first rapper to be signed by a major label, Mercury, which released "Christmas Rappin'". It sold over 500,000 copies. Its follow-up, "The Breaks", also sold over half a million copies. He was also the first rapper to perform overseas.  He released ten albums over the next eleven years. His first album was Kurtis Blow, while his second was the Top 50 pop album Deuce. Party Time featured a fusion of rap and go-go. Ego Trip included the hits: "8 Million Stories", "AJ Scratch", and "Basketball". His 1985 album, America, garnered praise for its title track's music video. From this album, the song "If I Ruled the World" became a Top 5 hit on Billboard's R&B chart. Towards the end of the 1980s, his recording career waned and he moved into production.  Besides his own work, Kurtis has been responsible for hits by The Fat Boys and Run DMC. Run began his career billed as 'The Son of Kurtis Blow'. Lovebug Starski, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Full Force, Russell Simmons and Wyclef Jean all have been produced by, or collaborated with, Walker. Former label mates René & Angela had their R&B chart topping debut "Save Your Love (For #1)" was produced by him.

Now hear world renowned Jane Elliot on the Mz Optimizm Speakz radio show. Jane Elliott, internationally known teacher, lecturer, diversity trainer, and recipient of the National Mental Health Association Award for Excellence in Education, exposes prejudice and bigotry for what it is, an irrational class system based upon purely arbitrary factors. And if you think this does not apply to you. . . you are in for a rude awakening. In response to the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. over thirty years ago, Jane Elliott devised the controversial and startling, "Blue Eyes/Brown Eyes" exercise. This, now famous, exercise labels participants as inferior or superior based solely upon the color of their eyes and exposes them to the experience of being a minority. Everyone who is exposed to Jane Elliott's work, be it through a lecture, workshop, or video, is dramatically affected by it.02:05:00Mz OptimiZmSpeakznoJane elliot,Seven,Lasean,Lasean Rinique,MzOptimizmBlue eye brown eye, reducing prejudiceWill you be an asset or liability in 2016?http://www.blogtalkradio.com/mzoptimizmspeakz/2015/12/31/will-you-be-an-asset-or-liability-in-2016Motivationhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/mzoptimizmspeakz/2015/12/31/will-you-be-an-asset-or-liability-in-2016/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/mzoptimizmspeakz/2015/12/31/will-you-be-an-asset-or-liability-in-2016Thu, 31 Dec 2015 02:00:00 GMTWill you be an asset or liability in 2016?Are you entering 2016 as an asset or a liability?

Will it be: Health Finances Relationships Housing Jobs/business Or a better you? Then, Special guest Israel McGhee What You Believe You Will Achieve....................... My sole purpose is to build and renew mind body and soul............. The McGhee Experience is a life-changing experience. We work heavily on strengthening the mind because your thoughts guide your body. Greatness is not something you become but something that exists in you. And it is our job to bring that out. We are passionate about helping you reach your goals and our compassion is what sets us apart. Simply.. we put the “PERSONAL” in Personal Training. Israel Samuel Mcghee started in fitness world at the tender age of 13. His desire to excel sent him on a quest to change his body, as he realized it was the key to reaching the goals he had set for himself at that time.  From there it became a part of his life, just like the air we breathe.  “I fell in love deeply and never looked back. Transitioning from sports to powerlifting and ultimately bodybuilding, my journey was very full-filling. And in doing so I acquired a great amount of knowledge.  It is my desire to share that knowledge with others to motivate, encourage and help them achieve the change they desire; aiding them in a lifestyle renewal versus a quick, temporary fix.”   I remember having a friend who was very dear to me pass away from Diabetes and from that moment my vision has been ever so clear. It became my destiny to ultimately live a life that helped others stay uplifted and motivated and just be the reason people wanted to change. It’s my purpose and I intend on full-filling it with all that I am.02:06:00Mz OptimiZmSpeakznoHealth,Wellness,Love,Relationships,MzOptimizmRelationships, health and fitness plus financesIt's Holiday Madness and We Want Part of it!http://www.blogtalkradio.com/mzoptimizmspeakz/2015/12/24/its-holiday-madness-and-we-want-part-of-itMotivationhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/mzoptimizmspeakz/2015/12/24/its-holiday-madness-and-we-want-part-of-it/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/mzoptimizmspeakz/2015/12/24/its-holiday-madness-and-we-want-part-of-itThu, 24 Dec 2015 03:00:00 GMTIt's Holiday Madness and We Want Part of it!Brought to you by Mrs V Infinity Scarves and Bo's Candles!

It seems as if a new case is televised or posted on Social Media every day; however, justice has not and appears that it will NOT be served. Cases stemming from Jim Crowe, to Amadou Diallo up to Rumain Brisbon- the violence must stop, let's hear your suggestions.   Much talk and controversy started after a brilliant piece written by Noemi Lujan went viral! The story tastefully depicted a member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc peacefully protesting in her community while wearing her Sorority letters.

OptimiZm and the Man of IntellectAn original member of the Crash Crew, Reggie Reg was born and  raised in Harlem, New York City. Growing up, Reggie Reg’s  early music influences were 70’s R&B and Funk groups like Earth,  Wind & Fire, The Jacksons, BT Express, Lakeside, The Isley  Brothers, and the BarKays, just to name a few. Reggie Reg got his  inspiration to emcee from early Hip Hop groups like Grand Master  Flash and the Furious Five, and the Funky Four. At 16 years old, Reggie Reg joined Mike & Dave Productions, helping to promote neighborhood parties, deejaying and emceeing. And like most Hip Hop Pioneers at the time, Reggie Reg had no idea that his contribution to this new culture would soon turn the world upside down. Reggie Reg was instrumental in coming up with the name of his group after realizing they were constantly using the sound effect of a car crashing in the mix tapes that the Crash Crew sold. He was also the brainchild behind the hit songs, “Breaking Bells,” “On the Radio,” and “We are Known as Emcees.” Today, Reggie Reg is the President of Tru Skool Reps Entertainment, an entertainment company that promotes and provides venues for up and coming artists. Reggie Reg has also worked with On Track Productions running the New York City wide Safe Night Party Series. Reggie Reg is a relevant pioneer to the HIP HOP culture and also works promoting parties and events with The Preservation of Hip Hop Culture, TeamFearless, OldSkool Reunions, Distinguished Gentlemen, Change the Game Ent. and Team Hollywood.    02:07:00Mz OptimiZmSpeakznohip hop,Old school,old skool,pioneers,musicAn original member of the Crash Crew, Reggie Reg was born and  raised in Harlem, New York City.

He started writing poetry at a young age and won his first poetry contest in the third grade. In the seventh grade, his love for music became more prominent when he switched from break dancing, and became a rapper -- as defined by the culture he was living in. At the tender age of sixteen, he experienced a very traumatic event in his life, due to the insensitivity of a previously loving father. This event caused him to put down his pen. Consequently, he would not pick it up again until sixteen years later.After being transformed by God from the inside out, Charles became “Longshot”. The name, as he likes to explain, was birthed because he was homeless and had to eat out of trash cans. Also, people believed that It would be a “long shot” if he would even survive or be successful. While they assumed his demise, God had other plans for his life.Longshot has made a name for himself as an explosive and energetic Christian poet. “Its about ministering, I just want to win souls” he says. Longshot continues to minister consistently throughout the region and is submitted to God’s plan for his life.   01:34:00Mz OptimiZmSpeakznoLongshot Christian poet,blogtalk radio,lasean ar shelton,mz optimizm,googleLongshot was born Charles Cousins in Washington, DC on August 24, 1971.

Sharon's love and passion for food really shines through in every task she takes on. "I feel that food brings everyone together. A good meal has no boundaries of race, gender, economic level, or religion." After the release of COMFORT FOOD for the Mind, Body, and Soul, she received many requests for special diet recipes. Taking all of the questions and requests into consideration, she did lots of research and worked diligently to write HEALTHY FOOD for Diabetes, Celiac Disease and You!

Although she already had been singing since the age of six yrs old she was well on her way toward developing a vocal style of her own.   She was born and raised in Washington D.C. At the age of eleven, she sang before an estimated crowd of 30,000 people at Fort Dupont Park in South East D.C where she was the opening act for Ramsey Lewis. It wasn’t long before Henry Allen, President of Cotillion Records heard of this young sensation and signed her up posthaste. Stacy continued to on to complete a total of 12 albums during her R&B singing career.   As Stacy began to mature in age and mind, her desires began to change. She always felt an emptiness inside that she could not quite understand. After suffering with bouts of depression Stacy began to seek God. Then one day she dropped to the floor and said to GOD “I have heard about you”. “I need to know that you are real”.  And she experienced a presence that she had never felt before. Behold, the emptiness inside had been filled. She is fully committed to serving the Lord Jesus Christ.   She now ministers in word and song. And she often says that everything she’s been through has made her who she is today. Along with her husband Kevin, they own and operate two businesses in Maryland. Stacy is also a published author: Renewed: I Am Not the Same Girl. God has given Stacy a ministry for women; Women Walking with Authority. She also leads a Youth Empowerment program where she goes to schools encouraging youth (the next generation) in the importance of integrity and becoming leaders, not followers. Stacy says she’s a well kept woman, kept by the grace of God!  Her mission is to share her testimony about the keeping power of GOD!01:35:00Mz OptimiZmSpeakznoStacy Lattisaw Jackson,Mz OptimiZm,God,Faith,Im not the same girlStacy Lattisaw was not yet even a teenager when she recorded her first album.

This evening, we will highlight the AWESOME works of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. Founded January 16, 1920, Zeta began as an idea conceived by five coeds at Howard University in Washington D.C.: Arizona Cleaver, Myrtle Tyler, Viola Tyler, Fannie Pettie and Pearl Neal. These five women, also known as our Five Pearls, dared to depart from the traditional coalitions for black women and sought to establish a new organization predicated on the precepts of Scholarship, Service, Sisterly Love and Finer Womanhood. It was the ideal of the Founders that the Sorority would reach college women in all parts of the country who were sorority minded and desired to follow the founding principles of the organization. Founder Viola Tyler was oft quoted to say "[In the ideal collegiate situation] there is a Zeta in a girl regardless of race, creed, or color, who has high standards and principles, a good scholarly average and an active interest in all things that she undertakes to accomplish."   Since its inception, the Sorority has chronicled a number of firsts. Zeta Phi Beta was the first Greek-letter organization to charter a chapter in Africa (1948); to form adult and youth auxiliary groups; to centralize its operations in a national headquarters; and to be constitutionally bound to a fraternity, Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Incorporated.   Photos courtesy of Soror Amber Pratcher and "ZETA" History cited from: http://www.zphib1920.org 01:01:00Mz OptimiZmSpeakznoMz OptimiZm,Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc,ZPhiB,January 16 1920,SisterhoodThis evening, we will highlight the AWESOME works of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc.

While he doesn't use profanity in his lyrics, he keeps his street edge in tact not only through substantive lyrical content, but with tracks that can make any of today's dancefloors go crazy. XCIX (Pronounced "Ninety-Nine") is the rebirth of a seasoned songwriter & performer. The newly branded emcee first got his big break writing for Markell Riley of the hit group Wreckx-n-Effect on their multi-platinum album Hard or Smooth. He went on to write for other hit artists like Will Smith, super producer Teddy Riley and Hammer. Later, he was featured as an artist (performing under the name Nutta Butta) with multi-platinum performers like BLACKstreet, Janet Jackson, Queen Pen and Case. Spawning a solo career, Nintely-Nine also had a single and video released by Interscope Records for the platinum Bulworth movie soundtrack called "Freakout." After touring the world and collaborating with an array of talent, the artist ultimately found himself at a crossroads. His name, Ninety-Nine, tells that story. It is derived from the year 1999 when he stopped recording and walked away from the music business over creative differences at his record label. With his hiatus, it wasn't long before he realized that he missed creating music, and changed his name to Ninety-Nine to forever remind himself of his love of his art. Ninety-Nine melds old school influences and the energy of yesterday's Hip-Hop with a sound that is relevant and ear-catching to a whole new generation. The rapper has certainly paid his dues, and with an upcoming LP entitled Street Intellect, he's prepared to make fans think as much as he makes them dance.   01:49:00Mz OptimiZmSpeakzno99,Nutta Butta,Fine Media Entertainment,Young Einstein Mgmt,Mz OptimiZmNinety-Nine's growth and maturity is evident in his music.
