Dedicated To The Mothers that have Passed On And The Children Left Behind.

Mother's day can be the day we share meals, pictures, and laughs with our family. You will hear playlists from everywhere playing "Mama" by Boys 2 Men, "Dear Mama by 2Pac, or "I'll Always Love my Mommy" by the Intruders. People will give gifts and they will celebrate being someone's baby that day and give honor and respect to the woman that gave birth to them, or the Step Parent that raised them due to whatever circumstances their personal lives have given them. We salute all of you that do such. There are some people that look at Mother's Day another way also.

I am in this group as I never really celebrated the day due to religious beliefs. In 2017 I got a voice message telling me my mother passed away and my life changed. I joined into a family of siblings we will all join one day but dread that day of adoption. This family has many members but only is united in sorrow due to the circumstances of their relationship. When a child loses a mother whether young or grown it is an emptiness that will never be made whole again.

We suffer with memories of smiles, conversations we can not have to share our victories or have talks about our problems with someone we trust. We miss introducing them to our new families or connections and always hold on to what we have as we look at pictures and think of good times that we share. We have so much to say and all we have is memories, and headstones to speak to as we look to the sky or God to make us feel better. On this day we are not represented while it feels like the world get to celebrate having a connection we do not have to hold onto any more.

Dot Bundini and Big Stomp released a video this Mother's Day 2021 that represents how we feel and this song is the very pulse that our hearts beat on. "So Much To Say", is the song that talks about feeling like you best is gone and life is not the same, and also remembering the little things that makes us smile and appreciate the times passed. The Hands of love, join us and unfortunately the hands of time separate us but may this song keep us unified with our matriarchs as we live and remember the lessons they have taught to us.

So much to say is available on the Album Sweet Dreams Vol.1 available to stream and Purchase now on all music platforms.

The Soul Needs Healing and Hip-Hop Is The Answer.

The year 2020 is one of the most emotional years that humanity has endured. We have seen the death of greats in the world such as Kobe Bryant, Chadwick Boseman and many of the relatives we share in our communities. We have seen racism, politics and the leader of the free world become the poster child of everything wrong with it. The rise of pain in the world gave the child of pain it's time to bear witness to the struggle and that child is Hip-Hop.

Quis Chandla is taking his voice and using his brand of Hip-Hop to talk to the community, with the release of his new project "The Soul Needs Healing". By using his microphone and lyrical authority, he addresses the pain of police brutality and calls to arms all men to protect the women within the community and worldwide. With production by The Hitsystem, this project takes clean purposeful sounds and makes melodies to reflect on the lessons given with a teacher's plan of engagement. By speaking on the topics of protecting women, mental health, and paying homage to the people that have taught life lessons, this is grown man rap that is aimed to heal the world. This project does not continue the trauma of self hatred, genocide and the lack of acknowledgement all people are going through in our world. This project closes out the year 2020 on a high note by giving music that able to be played at anytime. This project gives us hope knowing that Hip-Hop still cares and will not only be a voice of pain but one that gives everyone hope in our future. "The Soul Needs Healing" by Quis Chandla & The Hitsystem is available now. Streaming this album will be the best opportunity to hear the message but purchasing this project keeps the belief of hope going as we show the world there is power in our message and Hip-Hop is a way to share that message to the world.
