The 2016 Soul Train Awards Gotta Come Get this KOSIGN!

So I'm going to sneak another KOSIGN post in here today, just because of how inspired I was after watching the Soul Train Awards.

#KOSIGN: Here are a Few Albums I Think You Should Get Into!

                                         

Whew! It's been a while I know. I'm breaking my blogging silence just to hop on and say hello. No really, I wanted to check in. We've been revamping the production of the show, and taking some time to really make it perfect. We will relaunch in January with something super nice! I can't wait to share it!

#KOSIGN: Joy Conaway & JK Howells Unite with The Gigabots for New Inspirational Record "The Lion's Awakening"

With all that is happening in our country and in our world today, it does something for me when artists use their gifts and platforms as tools for change! That's exactly what two of my favorite artists have done with "The Lion's Awakening"! Joy Conaway and JK Howells are no stranger to this site, and for good reason..they are two incredible gifts to music. It's also worth mentioning that this feature is technically about more than two of my faves.. the song is co written by Brik Liam, and produced by the duo we know and love as The Gigabots! I am here for this marriage in music.

#KOSIGN: Ashley Herring Covers Gnarls Barkley- Crazy

This is exciting for me. In between focusing on the show, Im going to try to share with yall the things Im digging in real time. First up, Ms. Ashley Herring...a beautiful person I recently met here in Atlanta!

#Watch: President Obama Addresses the Democratic National Convention & The Nation as Only He Can

I don't mind at all that my blog is a sweet ode' to the brilliance, black, and beautiful that our first family is! Last night our President Barack Obama took the same stage his wife held down just a day before him. After a small intro from a supporter whose son died in service, and a tear jerking video that put all of his real work into perspective, President Obama and all of his swag stepped onto the stage.

#Watch: FLOTUS Michelle Obama Steals the Show at DNC 2016 With Powerful Speech

I (like many of you) am disheartened by this current political season. It's a joke to say the most. Many Americans are in a place they've never been before concerning an election- completely lost. There are great reasons to not vote for either presidential candidate. Hopefully you all understand how to weigh the cons and make the best decision to vote anyway, and vote for the person who has our best interest at heart.

Eric Garner's Daughter Is Outraged by the #POTUSTownHall That Aired Yesterday: Watch It Here

I haven't blogged in a long time. Mainly because I've been extremely detached from it. I hope all of you BabyKayKs are following my various social media accounts (links in header), you can always connect with me there as well. Another reason for the absence of any new content is that Im trying to steer the attention mainly to the show. It's a lot of work, but Im enjoying it and I hope you are too. The first two episodes are done and on here for you to check out.

We #Zonin!!!

Rihanna Sang Love on the Brain at BBMAs Tonight and We Were Served!

Whew. This is leaving it all on the stage. Last week I went to see Rihanna in concert, and even though I had heard from reputable sources that the show was amazing.. it was actually better than I had anticipated. Tonight on the BBMAs, Rihanna gave the audience just a taste of what her ANTI World Tour is like.

LOL: Why I think of Jade Novah Everytime I Watch Lemonade

You guys, I know we've all been sucked into Beyonce's new visual for Lemonade and rightfully so! Lemonade is captivating from beginning to end. I'm also certain that you know who this lady Jade Novah is, and how amazing her Beyonce impersonations are. Well, let me tell you how these two women have had me in stitches for a few days.

KOSIGN: Beyonce's New Visual Album- Lemonade

Intuition, Denial, Anger, Apathy, Emptiness, Accountability, Forgiveness, Hope, and Redemption. All of these words command some sense of power and importance. All of these words map out the storyline of Beyonce's new visual album, Lemonade.

Watch: Prince's Super Bowl Halftime Performance Is a Reminder of His Incomparable Artistry

Yesterday we said goodbye to one of the greatest performers and most precious gifts music has ever known. While sorting through Prince posts online, this Super Bowl performance stood out. It exemplifies the true artistry Prince embodied, and literally brought tears to my eyes.

#KOSIGN Chloe x Halle Bailey -The Sister Duo We All Love Release New Video- "Drop"

To say I am overwhelmed with joy about this post is an understatement. Just years ago I was in a studio session writing and working with these two little ladies. Chloe and Halle Bailey blew me away at first listen. What I didn't know is once I got in the studio with them, I'd be even more amazed. Talk about pure talent and determination..and you're talking about the Bailey sisters.

#SoulSmile! College Student- Stefun Darts Pays Grandparent's Home Off

Watch: Rihanna Just Released New Video For A Fan Favorite - Kiss It Better (Explicit)

Whew the Queens are giving it to us today! You guys! Kiss It Better is SUCH a jam. We've all been talking about how good Rihanna's new album is, and the talk is warranted. The musicality of this album was well worth the long wait she made us endure.

Beyonce Releases New Athleisure Line #IvyPark + TWO New Elle Covers

It's been clear for some time that Bey was working on something special with Elle Magazine. After all, she'd basically taken over their IG page completely with a countdown. Today we got not just one cover story, but two AND the introduction of her new athleisure line, Ivy Park!

Puff literally can't stop wont stop. Just when you think he's got his hands in enough, he spearheads a charter school. Thats right, Sean Combs can add "Charter School Founder" to his already insane resume.

Fantasia Fantasia Fantasia!!! Singer Leaves It All on Stage for Patti LaBelle Tribute at BET Honors

Lord, Fantasia. This baby leaves everything she has on the stage. This is most evident when she's singing a song about God, or love. Fantasia is no stranger to either having come up in the church, and listen.. when she performs she takes you right back to her roots every time!

KayKi #KOSIGN Premieres This Monday!

So, you all know I've been hard at work trying to give you guys a show you will love. It's finally time for the first installment. This has been SO much work and sacrifice, but I'm very proud of the results. I'm super proud that I had a vision, planned it, paid for it, and executed it. The feeling is rewarding.

Performance: Kelly Clarkson's Song About Her Father is Heartbreaking & Beautiful

You guys, I've been waiting all day to watch this performance. I knew that it was something special by all of the buzz that surrounded it during and after. I didn't expect to be completely engulfed in Kelly's voice, her story, her heart.

Performance: AubRih Takes Over Your Airways & The Brits!

Last night the Brit Awards were live and in color. Among the performances was this highly anticipated moment shared between long time lovers and friends, Rihanna and Drake. Their new song Work, is Rihanna's first official single off of her super hot new album, Anti!

Kendrick Lamar's Riveting Grammy's Performance is Show's Highlight

The Grammy's didn't have very many memorable moments this year. There seemed to be loads of issues with the sound, and the dreadful reality that Rihanna had to pull out of the show due to illness. It just didn't come together easily. Even though this was a slow year, it still had a couple of high points, the most memorable being Kendrick Lamar's performance.

Beyonce, Coldplay, and Bruno Mars Rock out the Super Bowl 50 Halftime Show!

I'm baaack! Its been a bit since I've posted. I've been working on a  few different things and so the blog had to wait a bit, but.. We're back!

Now..if you're like me you watch the Superbowl mainly for the music extravaganza that takes place mid game. This year's performers were Coldplay, Beyonce, and Bruno Mars.. arguably three of the greatest performers of our time. Each artist individually is known for rocking stadiums out.. so together we knew it was going to be a show stopper!

Ohhh Baby!!! Todd and Kandi Welcome Baby Boy!

Entertainment mogul Kandi Burruss and her husband have been waiting for this moment to come for a long time. The two married in an extremely beautiful ceremony just a few years ago, and have wanted to expand their family since. The two have older daughters from previous relationships, and wanted to round things out with one more little one!
