Here and Now - March 7, 2025 The meaning of the title of this blog post T.R.O.Y. is they reminisce over you. It's the title of one of my favorite rap tracks, from CL Smooth and Pete Rock, released in 1993. These last couple of weeks, YAH(God) has been calling his musically inclined children home(others too, but lets saved that for last). Which brings me to this scripture:
"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;" 1 Timothy 2:5 KJV
If you have read, my bio here, or have ever read; any of my blog posts. I write about thing concerning my Lord God; delicately interwoven with secular music, to win some of you over, before it's too late! So, I reminisce over you, about the recent deaths of our beloved music artists, and other notable talented people; who gave us, their songs. Which in turn, gave us soundtracks for our lives growing up.
Today, Dwayne Wiggins, one of the Co-Founders of Tony, Toni, Tone, passed away today. Whatever you want, was a favorite of mine. "We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord." 2 Corinthians 5:7-9 KJV
Roy Ayers, genius musician who gave us Everybody loves the Sunshine, Run, and so many more. Most recently performed on mini desk, a music series on PBS. Roy Ayers, played the xylophone which made he music dreaming to me. Because, I'm still Searching for a higher love that only the Most High can give, I suggest you 'search' too!
Friends of Distinctions original member Harry Elston, known for hits like Grazing In the Grass, you got me going in circles, passed away on March 5, 2025. I always loved the chorus line of the song: "Grazin' in the grass is a gas, baby can you dig it? I can dig it, dig it; dig it; she can dig it dig it, we can dig it dig it, oh yeah!" I was a little girl and would see my elders family members with one of their album covers(see photo below) and it reminded me of Scoopy Doo, so I can dig it. I have always been an old spirit.
We lost our beloved rap Queen Angie B. Stone, co-founder of the first female rap group 'Sequence' on March 1, 2025. She gave us many hits during her career(I will definitely update later on his music bio). Angie Stone had performed, the night before they unalived her. I say this due to she went live on her social media account, explaining why she would touring again. She still hadn't been pay her royalties from Universal/Sony Music and exposing what the 'diddler' did to her.
So make your choice now. Choose YAH(God). We all get to live again. The only difference is your position. Where you will get sent to, due to your unbelief or your belief on Him. Time is short. Make the right choice! I dedicate this to you for believing in me. Glory Be To YAH! HALLELAYAH!
I'll blog back later.
