So… New York!!!
Control ‘Versy AKA Miss Electric Blue!
“Blaring from speakers” “New York! Concrete jungle where dreams are made of, there's nothing you can’t do, now you're in New York!!!
These streets will make you feel brand new, these lights will inspire you, Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York!” I swear every time Alicia blows that hook I feel the urge to run to the store to get myself a blue Yankee, cop it to the side, sag my jeans, pout my lips and say, “Wassup son?” with the thickest American accent my South African self would allow. Music has always been the most powerful medium to relay a message and Jay z’s “empire state of mind”, could have not come at a better time.
At a time when the metropolis that is New York needed to be reminded of its splendor, the home of musical legends, the birthplace of hip hop, the sidewalk is sprawled with nationalities and ethnicities that is definitive of cosmopolitan city, a place where Baby Phat meets china town, Chinese take-out serve pizza, where old meets new and where the outrages is considered the norm.
Welcome to New York, may I show you around?
I hear you mumbling, what can a feisty South African siSTAR show you that you don’t already know as a native New Yorker? Lots I tell you, my perspective on this city will amuse, anger, frustrate and sadden you. A perspective from the outside looking in allows you to paint the city with a different brush, I’m all for coloring outside the lines, ya feel me? I feel like Alice in Wonderland, everyday I learn new interesting things about the city that never sleeps and trust me when I say, my journey settling in has been one interesting ride.
So my peoples, follow me as I explore yummy eateries (I’m a foodie), sip on exotic cocktails with zany names, fill my stiletto addiction, attend sexy live events, try and find you the hottest parties in the city (catch miss electric blue in the v.i.p), interview amazing artists while trying to find you the best places to get your fresh threads and of course my favorite of all: try and understand the psyche of men & women in New York. Phew I’m tired just running down my “to do” list, see why you will always catch me with coffee in my hand, “slurps on hazelnut coffee” hmmmm. Doesn’t it feel like New York has fewer hours in a day than any other city?
When you on the street, look out for miss electric blue clicking her stilettos to a party, live event, fashion show, and eatery near you. Shoot you got something brewing?! let me know, if not my second name is “Gotchu” ‘cause I GOTCHU!!! “Phone rings, words are exchanged and Versy frantically grabs keys and rushes out the door”, It’s tiring being in demand but hell someone’s got to do it” winks, cautiously runs in heels and hails a cab, TAXI!!!!”…
This is THE LIFE OF THE CITY
