Welcome to the Meta Verse!

Oh shit... I have something to say. I have not posted on my website since 2022. 

I feel like I often tell myself I am going to get back to blogging. 

Just talking MY SHIT!

But I have put it off for quite sometime. With us having so many social media platforms that feel like mini blogs its can become a lot to keep up with. 

ShelinaIsPLATINUM.com is MY HOME! 

Y'all come here for me so I told myself tonight I will write. I'm just going to write what ever comes to mind and that will be the beginning of this journey. Just random early morning thoughts... We are in an ERA of facade, an era of FRAUD, an era where faking it until you make it has become life's mantra for some. 

These perfectly curated social media profiles of everyone's "perfect lives". 

Highlight reels of success but no one ever post their trials and tribulations. The need to flex on others or have that "Mines is better than yours mentality". In REALity what are we showing off? The disconnect from our families? The lack of social engagement when we are living in a time where we have to best technology to keep in touch? 

We have relationships where people are couple goals online but can't stand to be together in their households. What defines TRUE happiness? Attention and approval from others? Likes and comments? Has society become so EGO driven craving these short term dopamine fixed validation from others not realizing that ego's true definition is a person's sense of self-esteem or self-importance. Key word SELF!

 "One spent years repping the Bloods. The other spent years repping the Crips. But now two former gang members are repping one thing: food.

Malachi Jenkins, a former member of the Crips, and Roberto Smith, a former member of the Bloods, both got tired of running the streets and hustling. And when a mutual friend introduced them, despite their involvement with the gangs at the time, they hit it off and then shortly realized they both had enough of the life they were leading.

Jenkins, aka Chef Spanky, enrolled in Le Cordon Bleu, and after graduating, he started posting pictures of his dishes on Instagram.

After becoming Instagram famous, the two started their new business venture, Trap Kitchen LA. “The gang stuff, the shootings, now that I’m in this kitchen, I don’t go through none of that,” Smith said. -- Read more at Mediablackoutusa.com (Link in their bio) #TrapKitchen

VIDEO: N.W.A - JUNE x DJ GetOnUp

Official Video for JUNE's latest single titled N.W.A produced by Dj GetOnUp inspired by the motion picture "Straight Outta Compton" JUNE does a clear-cut job expressing both ends trying to escape poverty and the mean streets as a black man in America growing up in the hood.

"Pay close attention when I say a N!GG* with an Attitude. I'm basically saying no matter how much we succeed society tends to downplay accomplishments by people of color. They will only see "A N!GG* With an Attitude. So I want to empower people to know you don't have to live up to those stereotypes. You can be successful outside of dealing and rapping. If you are take what you make and turn it into a positive."- JUNE
