Korean Pop music, or K-Pop rarely reaches global success, so when a group in that genre beats out the likes of Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, and Selena Gomez for an award, it’s a pretty huge deal, regardless of what the award is for. This is how powerful a cult-like following can be in music.
Fittingly, twin sisters Naomi and Lisa-Kaindé Diaz have taken the term and they are working towards making it a household name. They named their group Ibeyi to acknowledge their heritage, which also has a significant role in their music. Their journey to becoming one of the most soulful groups in music of any genre is one that’s filled with moments that speak to their spirituality. If you haven’t heard of the group Ibeyi, you will be pleased to learn about the two young ladies who are giving the world a dope sound to vibe to.
The Colin Kaepernick saga's newest development is a huge win for the advocate and his supporters. There was also a third winner involved, and in my opinion it should be of no surprise.

As students across the country have gotten back into the swing of things, some still await their first day. One of the things kids always look forward to is meeting their new teachers, especially the art teachers. They are usually always overly excited, sometimes a bit quirky. This was always fun and comical for me. As they'd attempt to get the class settled down, they would start class like:
“Welcome back to school everybody, I hope everyone had a great summer. Hurry up and have a seat so we can get started on today's featured artist, Roger Jardine. Not to be confused with the business mogul, whom happens to share the same name. We're going to talk about Roger Jardine the artist and photographer.”
