Feliz Navidad!

On behalf of Jackie Speaks Show, Urban Latino Radio family and friends I would like to wish everyone happy holidays!!

The Holiday Party for PNC and Urban Latino on Thursday December 23rd was a great success. All the DJ's involved from both stations rocked the party. All of our friends and staff were, and I made some new friends too! How funny is it when someone says "are you jackie da model"? "i follow you on twitter" that is truely classic ;)

A live performance by ACK (All City Kings) kept the vibe up tempo as well. There were special giveaways and much networking throughout the night. Big shout out to everyone who helped make the event possible.  Thank You everyone for the good times with good people. Pictures and Video will be up soon.. in the meantime Feliz Navidad!!!!!

Winter Cuffing Vs Spring Flings

 "Winter Cuffing Vs. Spring Flings"

By Jackie da Model

Jackiedamodel@gmail.com

So it has come to my attention that people tend to get together for the long term during the winter, and have casual flings in the spring time. I asked a few different people their opinions on this observation. We all know that the Winter is too cold to be outdoors and guys are too lazy to run around "having fun" in less than 20 degrees. Spring is a time where everyone is enjoying the weather and also activities outdoors and therefore have more of a chance to meet people consistently and date or decide if they want to just "chill".

Weighing the pro's and con's of winter dating and spring dating have led me to the conclusion that making excuses for wanting to commit or run wild tend to come from those who are unsure of themselves. If you can't trust yourself to behave in nice weather what makes you think you will in the cold?.  If you want to be with someone exclusively it doesn't matter the weather, it matters who that person is and what they can offer you. Do they complete you?, Do they understand you?, Can they keep you satisfied? Those should be the ideal reasons, not "I want to stay in and cuddle because its cold so I need a cuddle buddy" or "Lets go speed dating in the spring".

That's the equivalent of the date you bring everywhere vs. the indoor boo. The date you bring everywhere may have won the respect and the honor of meeting friends and family. The indoor boo is most likely only good for sex or companionship. NUFF SAID! Get it together ladies and gents!!!

"Never make someone your priority when you are only their option"-anonymous quote

I have lived and learned and at this time I can honestly say that Love is unexpected, so let's not search in the hot chocolate aisle at the bodega ....if your meant to be you will meet that person at the time best for both of you.

Stay Focused!!

A 24K gold facial of course! Equinox spas in selected cities are now offering the signature spa facial which includes a detailed skin analysis, custom facial and décolletage massage. The 24K Gold Collagen Mask caps off the treatment to moisturize, firm and whiten the skin. Some that have tried this facial say that even after one treatment, their face feels firmer and fresh! How much will this facial set you back? Only about $165, a small price to pay for the ego boost you will get from feeling 20 again! Equinox spas located in New York and Los Angeles are currently offering this one of a kind facial. Get it while your pockets got it!

THE PEPE FOUNDATION

 Jackie da Model aka Jackie Speaks

Twitter= @Jackiespeaks247 / @jackiedamodel 

 This is an important Blog, its Sunday which is family day and I decided to share something heartfelt with you guys. Please Read below and check out the link for more details.

I am a good friend of Alex Baez and I have watched him go through a trial of emotion upon the discovery of his father’s diagnosed Cancer. Alex guest hosted with me the day after the news was delivered on my radio show “The Jackie Speaks Show”on www.urbanlatinoradio.com for my very first show (of my own). We were each others support.

“The Radio Show was therapeutic” said Alex Baez.

He is a constant reminder to myself and others that a good friend is hard to come by and even harder to keep. I value his advice and his character and if you knew him so would you. He is what I can call one of my mentors in this industry, a man that gives and asks for nothing in return to many for the love of his career. That being said please take a moment to visit the website for his Fathers Foundation. Alex has set up an event as well to focus on a fundraiser which will be on February 10th at the OE lounge in Queens. Anything you can donate would be appreciated, just think if it were you how much it would mean when people help out to keep your family afloat.

Saturday was the Athletes vs Cancer charity event at the Maserati dealership hosted by LA Laker Matt Barnes. The night was beautiful, not too cold, cool enough for me to wear that short little mini I was dying to put on!

Arrived to the venue, walked right in and the night began with a bang... literally. The car that was to pick up model, Melyssa Ford was in an accident on the way to her. So I had to get right into damage control and find a way to get her to the event asap. Someone PLEASE show me to the bar! Not yet... recording artist Dan Godlin and his manager went to York ave instead of York St. and were late for the red carpet. No worries, I got this...
Melyssa gets there, Johnny Nunez on deck making sure he gets his best shot, Dan Godlin arrives, better late than never. Red carpet done... time for some champagne!

The night consisted of an open bar, hors d'oeuvres and good music, not to mention a few cuties too! Matt Barnes, Derek Fisher, Tyson Beckford, Lisa Evers and Melyssa Ford mingled with the eclectic crowd that ranged from wall street suits to hipster bloggers. The night ended with a nice little dinner at Cafeteria ... no crabcakes though.

Friday was absolutely one of the best nights I've had in a very long time! I went to the Usher/Trey Songz and Miguel concert at the Prudential Center with my best friend, I had tickets from one of my other good friends, Jason from Sony/Jive, so I wasnt sure exactly where our seats would be , but I was just grateful to be there (I LOVE Trey and Miguel!)... I picked my bestie up in Hoboken and we were on our way. Get there, go to Will Call and they tell us they dont have our tickets... SAY WHAT?! OH HELLLLL NO! *Dials Jason's number*... As always, Jason comes to the rescue, get our tickets and we head straight to the Belvedere lounge. *Bottoms Up*! We had pretty good seats, good enough for me to get dazed by Trey's nicely built in 6 pack. Girls were going WILD, their men looking frustrated, for that very moment I was thankful for being single... just for that moment!

Treys set is over... intermission, time to revisit the bar. Shortly there after here comes my connect with Pit passes... now... if you all dont know what Pit passes are... I feel sorry for you! Ha, no, just playing, but they are passes to literally just stand right next to the stage, on the floor behind all the computers/sound equipment,etc. Trey had already left the building, but I was able to chat it up with Miguel.

Here come Usher... floating in the air over hundreds of screaming ladies who swear that he specifically heard THEM. He had a great set, just wish he wouldve had more ballads. Usher also showed that he has been working those Ninja Turtle abs! NICE!

What a great night!

Enjoy the pics!

Back In The Mix TV Taping with JDM and BPS

 @Jackiespeaks247 or @jackiedamodel on twitter.com

Urban Latino Radio "Jackie Speaks" Show every Thursday 8pm est

Well hello there! I have been out and about on the scene and the latest is that there is a TV Pilot going on called "Back in the mix" by an unannounced production team + network and I was invited to partake in the viewing and participation alongside BPS Productions TEAM JDM! We take over wherever we go! but anyway..


Photography by BPS Productions and others affiliated with PACE College and Getty images worked their magic throughout the taping.

Back in the Mix taping was held in PACE college. They intend to tape weekly and include a DJ Mix, a performance, a hip hop history segment, and live interviews. 

They began with a DJ Battle between Jon Swan and DJ Steel. Jon Swan was very animated and creative in selection. DJ Steel was very skilled in the art of DJ'ing including traditional scratching and mixing. The winner was DJ Steel for cleaner cuts and better DJ Skills, but DJ Jon Swan made an impact and people respect his DJ Game just the same. They said Jon Swan's creativity level was higher. I agree I also feel his appearance along with body language and personality gave off an animated vibe that caught the viewers attention!.

Naughty by Nature Performed and rocked to the crowds approval with their legendary hits "Hip Hop Hooray" "Uptown Anthem" and "I gotta lotta". You can go to www.naughtybynature.com for a FREE download of their mix-tape and to stay updated on their current performances, tours, projects, and more.

From the 1988 Golden Era EPMD // Hit squad performed. Soon after they were interviewed by the Hosts of Back In The Mix and asked the following:

How do you feel about your impact on the game?:

EPMD: "We didn't know there were producers, we went out on RUN's tour at 17 years old and learned about our sound being different", "Run said we had something and we took off after that"..

How do you feel about people looking up to you?:

EPMD: "We like it, HIP-HOP is our life", "We took the independent route, no middle man involved"

EPMD ON NEW MUSIC: "We told our kids if they follow our footsteps, dont compete with new music..", quote: you cant "bite" or make same record with same content you have to be original.

EPMD Current projects: A film about HIP -HOP, ESP January Album "For my age group"

Clear up the Rakim Beef please...
EPMD: "No beef here.."

Are you still in touch with the entire "Hit Squad"?
EPMD: "Yes, we still speak to Grand Puba, Das Efx, and did a show with Keith Murray..", "We stopped working and got lost", "Even Nicki Minaj working, we gotta work or well be looking crazy out there.."


NEXT!!

A performance from a member of the 1st Hip Hop act to go on the Jay Leno Show, and is still relevant 20 years later.. Dres of Black Sheep!

His new album is called "Black Pool of genius" in which you can hear his latest single just released titled "Forever Lovin You".  As usual Dres performed an ill set.. with my personal favorites as we all chanted along .. "Engine engine numba 9 on the new york transit line.. if my train falls off the tracks pick it up pick it up pick it up bounce back!!!!!!!"

So whats up with Dres from Black Sheep (my notes of his interview):
Dres has been a busy bee, the company KIA used his song for a car commercial and that broke the ice for this album Black Pool of Genious. When asked about Mr. Long, Dres said that he is a family man that now lives in Florida however he will be joining him for the 20 year anniversary tour along with Naughty by Nature. Dres Music was always distributed, promoted, and marketed by himself. His comment on that was that if you belong to a major label you are basically a recipient of a high loan with high interest. If you invest in yourself more and your in it for the right reasons like the love of music then it will work for you to be in this industry. Dres is very proud that 20 years later he is doing his own thing on his own terms and is successful. He states that he is in no way trying to take Drake or Nicki Minaj fan base on..he has his own fanbase that is loyal and wont deal with what they are being force fed these days. When asked about the Native Tongues Crew he said their relationship was positive and brief, they were "dope cats" ad a variety to spice of life. Dres has a track with QTip, Dove, and Mike G. called "Birds of a Feather" on native tongues new album. He tips his hat to De La Soul and said he is in HIP HOP for all the right reasons..not for the bling-jewelry, girls, cars but for the LOVE!. Dres is considered adult contemporary hip hop. in his video for "Doin it right" he teaches his son how to hold the MIC.




NEXT!!!!

Anthem an up and coming artist that left his job on wall street to take on the industry full time as a HIP HOP artist performed. He has a mix-tape with DJ Whookid (A Known DJ for G UNIT) with songs titled "reception" (his ode to the 90's), and "Looking down". Anthem always worked and went to school, and he always loved HIP HOP. He wants to make his parents proud. His mentor and financial backer is a man whom he worked with on Wall Street that he steadily confided in about his love for HIP HOP and dream of becoming an artist. Anthem wants to go the independent route the whole way. He was asked which one of the artists who performed was his biggest influence, he chose Naughty by Nature and quoted the OPP song!


NEXT!!

A special guest appearance by Jam Master Jay's Son (Jason) who calls him self "Jam Master Jay-Son" lol ( CLEVER isnt it?..yes this is too classic). He said he is currently filming a reality show called "Heir to the throne" being aired on one of the major networks he couldn't name LIVE, featuring him DJ'ing all over the city (NY THAT IS). When asked about his attire he said his father wore a hat with a bigger brim, then he was asked about why he wears laces with his Adidas to which he replied "ITS 2010" LOL!!!

All in all it was a great experience and the pictures speak for themselves check out the album for "Back in the Mix" on www.BPSProductions.com

Video and Pics to be added as addendum after editing ill keep you posted!!! As usual much love and respect... its your girl JACKIE DA MODEL!! over and out this peace......
