Losing my religion review.


Well my version of a review.  
This post is long over due.(well all my reviews are; just watch out for them *wink*). I have procrastinated this for a very long time (yeah not my finest quality, I'm a work in progress). I downloaded this album on 18th November 2015 and I'm just writing a review. (smh) .

The list of tracks on the album are in a sequential order; one track precedes another.

*The first track; Losing my religion is a monologue. Basically the vicissitudes of life.

*Miracles follows. I mean after the ups and downs of life, of course miracles are bound to happen. My favorite phase is 'My life is a miracle, can't deny it I'm a miracle.

*123 Victory is next on the track; one of my favorite. It sounds like something for cheer leading (lol) . It even begins with 'Hey Yo 123 Victory!'

*Road Trip; is nothing short of beautiful teaching (well me) that the joy is in the journey and how awesome the end of the trip would be. Its a daily reminder to be honest. That our trip on this side of eternity is for a while (though it would be difficult) and the end would be glorious.

*Pray for me; Even has the Lord's prayer in it. It reminds me of Underestimate Prayer Link. Pray just too important. Every religion believes in prayer; I mean prayer is bae sef (lol)

*Wanna be happy; This one is a must listen too. If you don't even download the album, just please download and listen to this track. Like who doesn't want to be happy? But we keep doing stuff that doesn't make us happy. 'The truth can hurt you or the truth can change you'

*It's Time featuring Tasha Page Lockhart and Zacardi Cortez; bottom line; there's no sound sweeter than when God says it's time. God's time is always the best.

*True Story; my favorite line is 'Everyday we say, Lord, please help me I'm lost, don't leave' because I don't know about you I say this everyday. That's one of my prayer points 'Lord don't leave me to myself' (That's my own true story *smiles sheepishly*)

*Over; bottom line 'If God says its not over; get up cause its not over'. This phrase was repeated several times to emphasize that if you have breath its not over. (So izz NOT all over Jackie *smiles sheepishly*)

*When featuring Kim Burrell and Lalah Hathaway; is a question, I asked Jesus everyday. When would you come take me home? earth is tiring abeg. Its a very nice piece which reminds you that there's a home waiting for you.

*My world needs you featuring Sarah Reeves, Tasha Cobbs and Tamela Mann; very solemn song, in fact you can play it for a child to sleep (grins). In these times to be honest we need Jesus more than ever.

*Intercession; in layman terms 'EPP me'. Jesus our intercessor. This songs helps you to take time out just to appreciate the intercession Jesus does for you. Just look at how it starts:
Jesus please mention my name when you talk to your father today
Life down here feels so strained my brokenness is in the way
I'm not that good
Don't pray like I should
Yet I'm amazed you get me through
He see's me but he hears you.

*And finally No sleep tonight; not a TGIF song oh biko (lol). I'll say its like a charge for evangelism because He was saying 'let's talk about love, life, faith, patience, grace, forgiveness, if not whose gonna sleep tonight.


Yeah. That's it guys. If you haven't heard of Losing my religion by Kirk Franklin, err are living under a rock? If you haven't downloaded the album please what are you waiting for??


With love, theInspiredCutiee 

I am usually all for honesty; I wrote this piece for one the blogs I feature in, but apparently it couldn’t fly because it didn’t centre on an African, (which is good, we got to celebrate Africa). ‘No worries', I said to myself, 'I wrote it, Emma Gonzalez inspires me, so, ama share it here'… While valentine’s festivities for the year was in the air, students of Majory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida were experiencing the most memorable days of their youthful lives; a fellow student of the above named school went on a rage and killed seventeen people. Seventeen lives were lost because one unstable person had his hands on a weapon of destruction. This event is not just a traumatic one for those involved, but more of an uproar; come on, its rational for anyone in this situation to be livid. Having seen clips of the incident, watched the town hall meeting aired by CNN, read tributes, speeches, and the ever trending hashtags #WeCallBS #NotAgain, it’s amazi...

Your Isaac

I always marvel at Abraham's faith. That man went through a lot. I ask myself if I'm capable of enduring one tenth of what he went through.. (Genesis 12 and 22) After waiting for years for a child, God eventually gave him one, and then God said he should sacrifice him.. Every time I read this passage (Genesis 22:2) I take a pause, I'm like 'hollup hollup, whatasay??'. I'm always like God please don't give me such a test oh; because I'll legit fail. 😖 Notice in Gensis 22:1; says 'After all this, God tested Abraham' (The Message). Its clearly says after all what Abraham went through God tested him, test is in past tense; meaning when Abraham was encountering such it wasn't a test for him. We read it now as a test; but for him it was life, real life! Not African Magic or Telemundo.. Lol. What's your Isaac I ask? It doesn't have to be your child.. Lol. It can be your time, your communion with God, or time with other belie...

Star Struck!

Hmmm… My people, na so I see my celebrity crushes… Na so I stand at attention Na so my mouth no gree move Na so I just dey look Chai! My brain no even boot to take picture… Na so I dull! Ha-ha! I wrote this poem on the spur of writing this post. I should actually give you the gist… Scene 1 I needed to use the ATM, so, I decided to go the nearest one around my office, I said to myself ‘this won’t take time, no need to carry phone’, that’s how I left my phone in the office oh. I got to the ATM, there were a couple of people, so I joined the queue, that’s how a black jeep rolled into the parking lot. Enter Nathaniel Bassey… I opened my eyes with surprise, (if you read my posts, you know Nathaniel is BAE!) and began to wonder why no one was screaming and acting all giddy. ‘Is the ATM working’ he asked. ME!!! He spoke to ME!!! I couldn’t even answer I just shook my head because I was too mesmerised. God bless you, I am...
