PRINA JACKSON - A BOSS LADY
Name: Prina Jackson
Birth Date: March 29
Birth Place: Durham, North Carolina
Born in Durham, North Carolina, raise in Killeen,Texas Prina Jackson is the youngest daughter of a preacher father and a stay at home mother. Ambitions to say the least her determination to become a professional singer was shaped by her experience of singing in church and although not supported by her family, she went on to develop her musical skills and surpassed even her expectations. By the time she had made it to High School, Prina has already opening for a number of multi-platinum recording artists such as: High Five, etc.Prina has also shared the stage with Ying Yang Twins, Lil Jon, Chingy; just to name a few. As an accomplished singer/songwriter and producer, she then went on to work on her own debut album.
Prina spent some time living in Germany where she continued to sing and recorded her own music video and within two years Prina had moved back to the States to help form the R&B group 'RAIIN'.
Prina's career in the music business seemed set. She continued to share the stage with major recording artists, performed before Big Boi of OUTKAST, and appeared on national television, set up her own studio and continued to manage RAIIN. "I decided to manage RAIIN, because I wasn't willing to allow someone else to make decisions on my behalf without consulting me. I have to be OK with whatever I do." noted Prina. RAIIN had the meaning of " Without RAIIN there will be no growth, and without growth there is no RAIIN."
11+ years into her career, she was approached by up and coming R&B artist; Jaunte-Jacobs. A role as the manager of such a prestigious performer and artist was not something that Prina was going to pass up and she jumped at the opportunity. Having watched him blossom from RCA recordings in his early career through to owning his own record label (The Urban World Music Group)and now signed to Universal Music Group. She felt that this was a dream chance to not only learn and develop herself as a person, but also to further the career of someone that she loved and worked so hard on.
Prina became a volunteer Marketing Consultant and volunteer Media Director for Humanity Healing while marketing and promoting Jaunte-Jacobs. Now Prina is CEO/FOUNDER of ZyeCha Inc., Director of Operations & PR for EXCLUSIVE FASHION & Furs.,as well as marketing and promotions for Yum Yum Entertainment. She is also in a shared partnership with her manger of NISHA MANAGEMENT. Network admin for Nisha Management,Dj Rio Blackwood and run her 196 sites herself.
Prina just conducted her first interview in over 5 years by appearing on Hustle & Grind Radio. Prina have an upcoming 2 page spread in the first female tribute to female barbers in "Aganist The Grain Magazine" out in November.Prina will be featured in the first print of HHH Magazine in March 2010.
She also is the Editor n chief of Urban Steez Magazine.
Furthermore note her humanitarian work will be featured in Ghana's African Art's and Entertainment Newspaper called "The Spector". It will be available at all Ghana's Embassies world wide. BBON & ZyeCha Inc. teams up every year to help the homeless. "The Gift Of Hope Tour" has become an annual event. In 2008 "The God Father Of Go-Go" Chuck Brown was the guest featured. Prina also markets and support Ryan Hicks "Ballin For Peace Tour" this organization geared for inner city youths. Prina will be starting her own non profit organization of her own soon as well.
Its obvious Prina has a mission and she is well on her way. You never know what she is going to do next. Stay tuned. Are you not entertained? You don't know this business like she knows this business. You'll never know a women like her with the swag of a queen, but heart of a servant she is a true gem to anything she touches.
"No matter how hard my life, I always try and help anyone that feels that they can use my abilities and skills in one way or another. These things I live for." It was this dedication to helping others and not just within the confines of the music industry that eventually lead Prina to become a member of the IWW Starbucks Union and to join in the fight to help low paid barista's in their struggle to gain equal pay and fair treatment within the company. Humanity Healing was her next stop. "To me Humanity Healing is about love and peace. Love one another no matter what someone might do. Learn to be peaceful despite what we are all face with each day. By doing this we can begin to heal humanity."
Prina has, in a very short period of time become an invaluable asset to any team she joins, where she works tirelessly. " The only way to leave this life with is your footprints embedded in the earth. While others compete to do the same!"
Like I say about and for everyone I write for "Those that love keep it coming, but for those that hate do it in silence, but watch them succeed!"

A Model Above Beauty


When you think of models you normally think of women, that are beyond unrelated to your world. You have a hard time believing that they live normal lives too, and that they are just as human. When you put together beauty and class, and the motivation to succeed, beyond all doubters who do you get? You get "Niagrafallz" that's who, and this young women is way more then what you see! With beauty as unique as her name, and eye that lead to a gateway that pulls your very soul with intrigue! The very versatile nature of her beauty makes her the virtuous gift to photographers! However it's not just looks with her, she comes with the brains that will challenge any man. The type of women that won't waste time with nonsense and that is taking everything she touches to the next level! No you don't have to take my word for it, however you can already see that her presence is known! This devoted mother, model, and women has taken many by storm but she is just at the beginning of all that is waiting for her.
Like I say for everyone I write for or about "Those that love keep it coming, but for those that hate do it in silence, but watch them succeed!"
Bio :
Khadijah "NiagraFallz" Born in Paterson,NJ but Raised in Brick City Newark, NJ is the ultimate Muse that Does it all. From the age 5 seeing my moms Grace the Runway to now I always had the Drive,the desire To Model (to be Famous) walking the Runway. From dancing to hip-hop/Reggae to modeling in different Fields of the modeling world I said "I am and I will accomplish my goals."
Modeling has always been my main focus but school came first. I decided to finish high school and pursue my dreams. After school at the age of 18 I had my baby boy which was the greatest gift I've ever received. Having a son didn't stop me it just pushed me to get my life together and to work harder.
Since 2003 I've been grinding from taking care my son working, going to school and modeling, I've gained a lot of knowledge. I have also taught myself to stay humble and to stay positive. In this life You can not walk around with a bad attitude and expect things to go your way or to be handed to you. I've learned that the hard way and changed the aspect of life.
Since I've been modeling I have done local fashion shows for various clothing designers and hair stylists. I have done numerous of photo-shoots for banks photography, Lloyd parks,even 43studios and more!!! Working with some photographers was Great but some were just Perverts. I had to experience a lot of Bull with certain ones promising me things such as putting me in magazines, videos, and etc.... But in this industry it's about perseverance while some will help you along the way. Unfortunately some will want sex from you to help you. By the Grace of ALLAH (GOD) I have not fallen victim to sexing my way into the industry. I will struggle and grind hard,working my way from the bottom until I reach to the Top.
I would like to thank Mr. Tony Neal From the CoRe DJs who Found me on Myspace, gave me a chance believed in me and said "I'm willing to work with you from the kindness of my heart." He looks out For me and guides me to the Right of way.

STAND TALL MY WOMEN OF COLOR AND BEAUTY
I see as times change so does our image and the pride we use to once hold. I see young women now a days just throwing their innocents away cause they know not of their beauty and worth. My strong Black sister's we hold the struggle to the world and the key to the future don't let it slip away. We are the works that keep our brothers strong and the hope of the future leaders and that we birth to life. We are the very backbones of strength and courage we have roots that stretch further then any man can see. We are the tears that soiled the earth, the smile that out shines the sun, and the skin tone baby every women wants!
A Strong women by the name of Maya Angelou once said " I speak to the black experience, but I am always talking about the human condition -- about what we can endure, dream, fail at, and still survive." We as Black women embody this very quote we have survived and endured throughout the years. Single mother raising their children on their own, and work two or three jobs just to make ends meet and put food on the table. My strong sister raised without her father but yet chose to pursue school and career over empty love that wasn't given by daddy.
Behind every strong man is a black women, in some shape or form we are there and stand beside him or behind him. President Barack Obama is the prime example with his wife Michelle Obama who understood that her man had a dream. She understood that it would be hard and at times painful but she stood tall, and she stood by him now he is the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. She is the type of women that screams out what beauty and intelligence is and can be in a women. She once said "You can't make decisions based on fear and the possibility of what might happen. We just weren't raised that way. " She is right and we weren't raised to hide or to be scared of a challenge but to face it and be bold though it.
Another great women once said " And so our mothers and grandmothers have, more often than not anonymously, handed on the creative spark, the seed of the flower they themselves never hoped to see -- or like a sealed letter they could not plainly read." She was right we are the dreams of tomorrow that our mothers, grandmothers, and their mothers never would have seen. Were in movies where we are the stars and not the maids and where we can demand bigger positions on our jobs. Hell were the boss now a days we own half these company and are on the fortune 500 list! Alice Walker had a point her words now more then ever are coming true more and more everyday.
Another great and powerful women once said "I don't think of myself as a poor, deprived ghetto girl who made good. I think of myself as somebody who from an early age knew I was responsible for myself, and I had to make good." Her name is Oprah Winfrey and you see her everyday on television and you see all the good she has done, and doors she has opened. She came from very humbled beginnings and look at her now and what she has become. So ladies no matter what you have done or where you come from we have great inside all of us we just have to tap into our greatness. The biggest crime we commit is to deny our souls life through our dreams and accomplishments.
