World Aids Day - Something I have to say!

As you all know December 1st, 2009 was "World Aids Day". Yeah that is a maouth full all in itself for me. First thing I did that morning was explained to my children (teenagers) why this day actually exsist and why it is so important. I have to say (not because they are my children) that they were very informed on the statistics and could share information with me and their father. MADE ME PROUD! but I also had a chance to talk to my "God daughter" whom have been back with her mother for a year. Her mother was incarcerated for a year and now is out. Mind you I will never keep a child from their parent and so I told her it is good if she moved back with her mother (bad idea) and so she went.

Well I am not going to use any names, but my god daughter is 14 years old and she came down for Thanksgiving to visit. First of all I noticed that she hadn't gotten bigger (eating good I thought) she have a "New Swagg" about herself, something none of us were use to. She was just a little too fast and grown for me. But thisis my god daughter and I wanted to see where her head was at the time and what she had been up to. Well one thing that came up (from her mother) while she was down here, was she skipped school the day before she came to my house. I was like why is she here? But that is something that her mother have to deal with. But she skipped school and she was with her friends and her 17 year old BOYFRIEND! What the Hell! She had his little ring on her finger like she was going to get married that day.

Her mother asked me to get her a pregnancy test because she said that she had sex with the boy (not telling me that) and talk to her.I was thinking what am I suppose to say that a teenager that is having "unprotected sex"? I was dumb-founded because my son is 13 and daughter is 12, I have had the talk with my daughter and my son talks to his father about thing like that all the time. But check this out I have talked to my god daughter before also when she was in my house for 2 years about 1 year ago. MY HOW THINGS CHANGE in 12 months. Well I started telling her about the whole getting pregnant and AIDS and STDS and the death toll is high for the AIDS victims and stuff like that and how little boys are "Dream Killers" because once you are pregnant there is no more cheerleading and stuff like that. Out of that stuff we talked for 3 days.......the only thing she came back with that she got out of it was "Not to have unprotected sex!" I said not at all but that was what she wanted to hear. I was exhausted at this point so I sent called her mother and I told her what she got out of it and told her mother that you can't be her friend any longer because she is highly disrespectful when it comes to her mother.Well she got back on the bus and went home. That is a learning experience to me.

But as I thought it was all over and then I was in the car and I was listening to the radio on December 1st and there was a very positive segment that was devoted to World Aids Day. The DJ and the team were talking to a lot of people that either contracted or were close. Well something happened there was a lady that called in and she was crying. I was like okay this is different. Well she said that she was listening to the show with her husband. She has been married to him for 24 years and the show compelled him to tell his wife that he is on the "DOWN LOW" (my mouth dropped)but it gets worse. He has been on the "Down Low" for 5 years! And when you thought it was all over it gets worse!!!! Then she says that he knows how important of not catching AIDS is to her and he has been following through with his husbandly duties since then and he then told her THAT HE HAS BEEN HIV POSITIVE FOR 2 YEARS AND BEEN KNOWING IT. He said he didn't know how to tell her. Not only that he hopped out of the car because he said that she was thinking about how he feel because he had to tell her. ***** please he is so lucky that she didn't kill him because I know a lot of women that would have right then and calling into a radio station is the last thing that would have been on my mind; The radio station talked to her and she was on her way to the clinic and get TESTED and was suppose to call back into and you know what?????? SHE DIDNT CALL IN AT ALL.We need to be on the look out for this lady she may have went mad.What would you do if that happened to you? People PAY ATTENTION!!!!! Aids are out there and you can't do anything about it once you get it so PREVENT IT BY ANY MEANS!!!!! I want my kids to grow old and you should too!!! Get tested!

Rydah Gurl of Life Lyrics

As we progress through life, complain about the bad times, and rejoice the good sometimes we meet someone who shows us that our problems are minuscule compared to those of others.
This happened to me recently. Though I am a struggling artist and college student and am having difficulty finding a job, I now realize there are others who are having harder difficulties than I. The proof is on www.beheardshow.ning.com I ask that people check out the video The Struggle on there and check this guy out. I also ask you to join our cause and help those that REALLY need it. If you are a Victim Of The Industry please write me at voipresents@gmail.com so that I may get your story out and show others the pitfalls and traps of day -to- day life in America and the world as a whole. Together we can make a change.

Life's Lyrics Show today....

This is your girl Rydah Gurl, one of the hosts on Life Lyrics under your boy Be Heard. I just got done with the show to day and I have a lot of feelings about what went on.... Well We had Sircherry on the show and it was quite interesting. We talked about insecurities in a man and a woman , also talked about "What is the first thing a man do wrong, when approaching a woman?" I mean there was alot of things said but the one thing that stuck out to me was the fact that communication is almost dead in a relationship. I mean I have been with the same man for 11 going on 12 years and that is all I see us doing is communicating. We tell each other when we feel a certain way and also when something is going on inside that is not quite right. But for men and woman to say it is an issue in their relationship, I feel like that is something that should be worked on first before anything goes any further because if it goes any further then that it will stay that way.

I just wanted to thank Sircherry for spending time with us and enlightening us with presence and I would like to post a link about his book also that is for sale and I will be reading that book! Everyone if you haven't heard anything about the show. Check us out- www.blogtalkradio.com/BE-Heard- on Mondays, Fridays, and Sundays!!!!

Thanks for listening ~Rydah~

Due Dirty

Be Heard Show

The Show has been taken over by the Mayor of Twin Cities . Hello Mayor

LP: What’s Happening!

BH: I see that you keep coming in and out of the chat room. Are you okay now?

LP: My PC will not let me branch out and let me do the matix thing in the chatroom but we are here on the horn so ya’ll make sure you all call in and listen to the show because this is very important and what’s happening Carolina Blew –the mixtape will be coming out on Tuesday, September 15^th. You can get it anyways you can. You can pre-order the CD by calling 336-899-0841 If you can’t wait to get. But get it anyway you can. Let’s get it!

BH: I see you call yourself the mayor of the Twin Cities. How did you come up with that?

LP: Basically the twin city is Winston- Salem, NC for the ones that don’t know. Some call it Tre- 4. Originated from the Twin Cities. It was Winston and Salem then they both merged. Back in the day, I don’t actually know what year that was. I call myself the mayor not because I rap but don’t get it confused because there’s a lot of rapper. I call myself the mayor because I AM THE MAYOR, you hear the keys? (jingle, jingle).

BH: Oh! You have the keys to the city huh? You own those keys huh? (laugh)

LP: Yeah I own these keys out here.

BH: Okay, with that in mind, you came up with a lot of nice joints on your mixtape. Tell me a little bit about the “Hello Ladies” track?

LP: That’s one we basically came up with (I want to shout out to my brother PHOKUZ he did the production on that) and he was always making beats. When I hear the beat and I automatically hear the hook on it then ban there go another hit but basically. I put that out there for the ladies show then that theres no discrimination. Im in love with every woman. It was just giving back to the ladies. It is really a good “worker” no matter what age limit it is you can listen to it it has a good vibe. So I give back to the ladies because ya’ll buy those CD. I am always going to keep it real with ya’ll. Shout to all my ladies out there.

BH: With that in mind, I want you to take us into that “Hello Ladies” song.

LP: This is Hello Ladies and any kind of woman you are as long as you are a natural woman. Ya’Dig

(Song playing “Hello Ladies”)

BH: Okay I am back now with Lew Paradise. Lew you there?

LP: What it Dew.

BH: How do you feel the game is going now? You know how they feel that certain things should last for a certain time and after a while it should be over with. You knowhow Jay-Z put out DOA. How do you feel about that should you speak one it or let the man do his hustle?

LP: I will go with option B because I mean when you spend too much time with focusing on someone else how can you get yourself together. Remember the flat top, everybody wanted a flat top. Ok, what happened, people started wearing the flat top. Then the jerry curls and then stop wearing jerry curls. No matter if a rapper rap about being an eraser head. When it is played out, it is just played out on its own. I don’t see anything wrong with the game. Only thing I see wrong is how they holding me back because they know I am going to kill it!

BH: With that in mind you are killing it. What made you come up with Jordan’s on my feet? Tell me a lot about that?

LP: Shout outs to my boy Lil Chris with Jet Music / KBS Pearl E-N-T. You can sit in a room with 1000 producers and they have 1000 beats, if you don’t hear the hook then there is no song. Jordan’s on my feet is just telling the truth. It maybe late and I still have my JORDAN’S on.

BH: Rappin is about what you know. How long have you been rapping?

LP: Officially I have been rapping on CD since 2001. I was recording on cassettes tapes.

BH: Do you think Lew Paradise have matured since 2001?

LP: Man I have learned so much. Yes I have matured, I am not saying I am at my prime or anything. But I have matured since then when I started I was saying stuff. Now I rap about a lot of stuff. I want to shout out to my mother because just the other day she actually called me Lew Paradise.

BH: Speaking of tattoos, How many tattoos does Lew have?

LP:I cant tell you all of them, but I can say that I have one. Everyone have a tattoo song. I had to come with one but on a different level. (Tattoo Song Playing)

BH: Lew would you like to tell the fans how they can get in touch with you?
