Oprah Winfrey learns that Saturday is the Sabbath Day for the 1st time!!!!!
Written by CLAIRON HAYNES
Shortly before Jesus Christ returned to heaven to be with his father he promised his disciples that he would send them back a #COMFORTER to be with them. Ever since the 3rd member of the HOLY TRINITY, the Holy Spirit, has dwelled among men. One of the roles of this divine entity is to LEAD US INTO ALL #TRUTH!!! God's truths Jehovah God's our lives are revealed through the scriptures, personal testimony, prophetic manifestations, life's experiences, and through our very own intuition. The carnal mind has always been a wanderer since our fore parents Adam and Eve's entered into a sinful contractual agreement with Lucifer the prince of darkness also known a Satan and trade their allegiance to him instead of Jehovah God.
From here on the desire to sinning has been interwoven into our being so that we fall short of God's glory. Men most likely will believe a lie than the truth when they don't read the bible for themselves. That is why the very Scripture admonishes us to "SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES FOR IN THEM YE THINK YE HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE!!!"
Recently, in an interview featuring SDA Christian Devon Franklyn and renown talk show queen Oprah Winfrey, the issue of the Seventh-Day Holy Sabbath was brought to the forefront and the truth that came out was rather striking.
Can you believe it was for the very time that Oprah ever heard about the Sabbath?
Why didn't she read the Scriptures prior to this interview? Was it that she was too busy or because she views the word of the bible as just another story book that so many of us constantly take for granted? God loves us so much that if we fail to access the truth available to us he will send his servants with the truth to enlighten those who stumble through their dark life. Nothing happens by luck when it comes to God's children. One of whom bro Devon Franklyn is. Therefore being cognizant of this fact it is highly possible that God allowed both him and Oprah's paths to #intersect so that Oprah will use her platform of global influence to instill this PROFOUND revelation about the SABBATH to her humungous audience most of whom are not practicing SABBATH KEEPERS!
One thing is for certain, no #BILLION of money can purchase salvation. There is only one way that leads to heaven and eternal life and that is through Jesus Christ the only begotten son of Father God. If then the bible which is supposed to contain the secrets of eternal life, as revealed by Christ himself is being forsaken by the RICH & the FAMOUS, then what shall they do when the FAMINE OF THE WORD TAKES FULL EFFECT?
It is our God-given responsibility to search for the truth for it shall set us free! Really? Does becoming knowledgeable of something really makes us become free or does it further enslaves us to serve sin. Let's examine Oprah's stance on the Sabbath after Devon's revelation. Does she honour it and keep it holy as God commanded currently? Or was it just another one of her general knowledge test that she crams for then forget every thing?
I am not passing judgements on her or anyone pertaining to the fourth commandment outlined in EXODUS 20:8-11 ---------> King James Version (KJV)

8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.."
Just the mere thought of her not knowing why someone like me (HER BIGGEST FAN AND SUPPORTER) ceases from doing my own work from SUNSET on Friday to SUNSET on Saturday, leaves me baffled so much so that it STRIKES MY mind!

#ShowOut by Jade Nova #Debut on #iTunes today - #DownLoad
For many of you the name Jade Nova doesn't reside in your memory but for those of us who love social media her name symbolizes "The Voice" so badly needed on the music scene today. Since Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, and Mariah Carey, the music industry has not had a voice that left an indelible impression on listeners everywhere. Jade has that voice that has her fans aka #NovaCanes mesmerized by her sugary vocal range.
It Strikes My Mind discovered this talented singer on Facebook in 2012 via her You Tube cover of Rihanna's hit song "Diamond" (a rendition that brought her in over 12 000 000 views sending it viral) shared by Wes from @Aconnectiontv. From here on I remained a fan and want to see her climb the musical ladder to great success.
The diva is also known for her hit monologues impersonating Beyonce as Keyonce Knowles and others. Jade has been creating buzz since her "Diamond" video causing The Grammy Pre Show team, Kempire Radio, Rolling Stones Magazine, and other media outlets to look in her direction.
Today is a special #ShowOut moment for her as she releases her DEBUT SINGLE #ShowOut on iTunes today at 1PM. The #NovaCanes joined with her team to wish her all the very best.
Please download her new single here: >> https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/show-out-single/id675089680

How to Promote R&B Music @thelavalizard
Written by CLAIRON HAYNES
As you know I have been promoting Trini Trent aka The Lava Lizard who brilliantly runs The website http://thelavalizard.com/ and You Tube channel "Trini Trent TV" since the inception of this blog. Why? I endorse his truthful and intelligent blogging. Quite recently he has skillfully written some of the most thought-provoking articles relating to the music industry that allow for critical thinking. His latest video entitled "How to Promote R&B Music" has struck a chord with this blog since we tend to feature some of those same artists chronicled in this video. If you are an R&B artist or aspiring to become one you may want to listen to his forceful message. Most artists are not business savvy yet they refuse to train their minds so that they can effectively engage in the marketing of their product. I guarantee you that your approach to the music biz will never be the same after you listen to the hard core truth.

Music Groups or Music Dupe?
The slang word dupe mean (n.) "a person who is easily deceived or fooled; gullible. A person who unquestioningly or unwittingly serves a cause or another ..." You might be wondering why the usage of group and dupe in the same sentence. During the course of the article you will figure out why.
EVEN AS THE JACKSON'S TRIED TO REGROUP POST MJ'S DEATH THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE JACKSON 5 SPLIT PREVAILED!!!!
Many of us can name renown artists and the popular music groups that propelled them into stardom. Did I hear someone say Michael Jackson, Beyonce, Diana Ross, Bobby Brown, Kandi Barus, T-Boz, and the list goes on. All artists mentioned have all started with a music group. The Legendary Jackson 5 birth Michael Jackson,
The Supreme gave life to Diana Ross,
TLC produced T-Boz,
Destiny's Child launched Bryonce's career.
Music groups serves the following purposes:
1. Providing nurturing and boosting the confidence level of a budding artist.
2. Provides a blend of varying vocal range into a perfect harmony. R&B group "Bot To Men" came to mind.
3. Its cheaper to split the cost among group members instead of one person carrying the burden.
4. Groups are easier to market than a solo artist since the fans can identify with different personalities.
All of these groups started out successful but had one thing in common. There was always one member of the group who had a hidden calculated agenda to outshine the rest and send them deep into the valley of oblivion. Yes I said it, no tea no shade. Books (autobiographies), movies, interviews, have all been used as the platform in which this truth is/was told throughout the centuries.
Is alleged (in a TV documentary) that Michael Jackson felt that the Jackson 5 were keeping him back from creating the global brand he envisioned for himself. With this in mind the other 4 brothers were left to fen for themselves. But the truth is Jermaine Jackson was the one who left the group and remained with Motown (his father-in-law at the time Berry Gordy record company). This is said to be what punched the hole in the Jackson 5 bucket and never stopped the leaks. Listen the turmoil.
EVEN AS THE JACKSON'S TRIED TO REGROUP POST MJ'S DEATH THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE JACKSON 5 SPLIT PREVAILED!!!!
The cameras did role and candidly showed us who the real brothers are!!
Rumour swirled that there was also trouble in The Supremes camp forcing Diana Ross to go solo. Listen to the video below.
TLC also had its share of the problems associated with music groups too. In fact Lisa aka "Left Eye" wanted to leave the group and did so permanently after she met her early death in a car accident. TLC never regrouped successfully following this incidence.
R&B "Escape" consisted of Kandi, Tiny, Tameka, and LaTocha went down similar road
My favourite boy group of all times "Boys To Men" could not compete with the rise in the hip hip dominance so the group slowly faded. Listen to their biggest global hits. This legendary R&B group is said to be the only one of the bunch I've mentioned that remained loyal to each other and was forced out of the mainstream music because their brand no longer appealed to the market. However, they continued to perform across Europe for their fans and recently took up residency in Vagas where they perform their of music.
Finally, "Destiny's Child" has been known to have one of the most underhand split of them all. Beyonce is the child of destiny who left Kelly and Mechelle without real footing in the music biz. What else do we expect when you have your father as the manager of the group? Love me some B but I feel so bad for the other two who have lived in her shadow for the rest of their lives. The price you pay for being the elbow and the feet to launch the real star!
So here's the real question. Does it make sense to start out your music careers using groups as your launching pads? Be careful that you don't get left behind musically!!! Exercise wisdom and common sense and play the game safe without getting duped!!!
