I heart Harlem, Part 2


This past Sunday, I stopped by at an event that's part of the city's "Harlem for the Holidays" project at the Hip Hop Culture Center. I did my share of supporting my neighborhood by eating practically every local delectable in sight. As I was stuffing my face with delicious sweet potato beignets, an amazing group of kids came on the stage to sing gospel music. Their energy was incredibly powerful, it gave me goosebumps. Harlem has always given me what I needed at the moment, whether it's a reminder to stay grateful or a kick in the butt. I would love to hear these kids perform live again.
