K.W. the Artisan shows Love for his MOTHER Adrienne Charleston

Rapper / Illustrator and Blacktopian K.W. the Artisan shows love and appreciation for his mother, Blacktopian FB Admin, Poet, Writer and Life Coach Adrienne Charleston who is also his "Momager".  Read all about what he had to say. 




"Mother's Day comes once a year and I never know what to say. 


One day a year honestly isn't enough to celebrate everything you do. 


I mean, you got Father's Day but that's not enough either. 


I finally understand, for a woman, it ain't easy tryna raise a man. 


I guess I wanna say thank you. Thank you for this new house. 


Thank you for supporting my dream and allowing me to pursue it. 


Thank you for always having my back. My momager. My roommate. 


My Afeni. You are appreciated." - K.W. The Artisan (Maleek Brown)

K.W. THE ARTISAN AND BLACKTOPIA WOULD LIKE TO WISH ALL THE MOTHERS A HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY.

#WCW (Wed. Classy Woman): Afeni Shakur

January 10, 1947 – May 2, 2016


          This Blacktopian #WCW Award Trophy goes to the late Afeni Shakur who passed away earlier this week at the age of 69.  Most of you may only remember her as the mother of the late, great Tupac Shakur, however her contributions to the world goes far beyond raising one of the greatest rappers in history.  Afeni was a very prominent businesswoman, philanthropist, activist, speaker and once a member of the Black Panther party.
          Thank you Afeni Shakur and R.I.P.

  
          






HAPPY EARLY MOTHER'S DAY

Blacktopian Tenai Staley would like to shout out some of the Blacktopian artists featured on the upcoming STAMP OF APPROVAL MIXTAPE hosted by Tenai Staley.  

Shout out to Blacktopian artist, the Detroit raised, now West Coast stationed underground lyricist Rhyme Scheme.  He will be featured on the upcoming Stamp of Approval Mixtape hosted by Tenai Staley.

Shout out to Lil' Hines', his viral hit single "A Few" certainly gets the "Stamp of Approval" by Tenai Staley.

Shout out to K.W. the Artisan.  He has a nice "joint" that's being added (as well as puff puff and passed around) to the Stamp of Approval Mixtape hosted by Tenai Staley!

Shout out to Blacksmoke will bring some rawness to the Stamp of Approval Mixtape hosted by Tenai Staley.

Shout out to MMA Fighter / Rapper SupaMann!  His music hit just as hard as his fists do and he certainly gets the "Stamp of Approval" from Tenai Staley!




Not only would we like to shout out the Blacktopian Artists, but we would also like to shout out the Artist Managers that are also members of Blacktopia that helped make the upcoming Stamp of Approval Mixtape (hosted by Tenai Staley) possible.  


Shout out to Roberta Lathan.  Although her artist Marcus Sincere isn't a member of Blacktopia, she is and Marcus Sincere is definitely apart of the movement!  

Shout out to Nicky Braddy!  One of the newest members of Blacktopia!  Although his artist Flyy Drexler isn't a member as of yet, he is certainly apart of the movement and the mixtape and his single "Came From Nothing" is a certified hit!  

Shout out to Blacktopian Admin Latosha McKnight of Lady Viper Entertainment and Management.  Latosha represents her niece, Blacktopian Ms. Ke.

Shout out to Blacktopian Admin, author, poet, U.S. Veteran Adrienne Charleston!  This "Momager" represents K.W. the Artisan.

Shout out to Blacktopian Newbie Adrian Parker, the wife and manager of SupaMann.
