Rhymesayers Entertainment recording artist Brother Ali was featured on these pages here in 2013 and here in 2012 and way back in 2007. Listen to his classic song titled Uncle Sam Goddam (released in 2007) and you may see him as a real soothsayer, not just a rhymesayer.
His latest songs and music videos featured below continues the tradition with lyrical impressiveness and timeliness, besides being totally groovalicious. These songs are from his May 5, 2017 album release titled All The Beauty In This Whole Life.
These are Brother Ali's own words to describe the first music video below:
Very excited to present the video for Own Light, produced by my friend Dave Wilson. It was filmed in the Pacific Northwest and is dedicated to our recently departed brother and mentor, Jonathan Moore. Thank you to everyone who took part in this project and social thanks to Dr. Umar Faruq Abd-Allah for the introduction and inspiration.

I say peace when I jump on a beat
I say peace when I'm walking the street
(When I'm walking the street...)
I say peace when the sun's in the east
I say peace when I need a release
(When I need a release...)
I say peace when I'm facing the beast
I say peace when I'm taking you deep
(When I'm taking you deep...)
I say peace 'cause I know I'm complete
I say peace
I say peace
P is for the people
E is for the essence
A is for the answers that we get from God's questions
C is for the conscious
E is for the Earth
So everybody gotta stand up and find they worth,
A world divided will often fall to disease and violence
Gotta get through the shame and the silence so we can be united,
Only the righteous will overcome and become enlightened,
Living your life
Loving your self
So let the light in
One Love, One Blood, and One Heart
One People, One World, and One God
We gotta come together united for One Cause
Put your hands up in the air for peace!
(2X)
Peace worldwide starts from inside
We gotta find a better way that we can be (Be!)
Peace worldwide starts from inside
Go 'head and let your mind body soul be free (Free!)
Peace worldwide starts from inside
The answer and solution always starts with me (Me!)
Peace worldwide starts from inside
If you want to save the world,
Be the change you wanna see!
I gotta peace of mind
I gotta piece of paper
About to make a perfect rhyme that the world'll savor
Counting stars gazing past 2011
To 2012 infinity - 777
I hope we make it to heaven on earth
To see our brethren
Come back, resurrected
Bob Marley the Legend
It's One Love
And me and my people are all connected
For world peace
We gotta have a common collective
Martin taught us the lessons
Of how we should be respected and
Gandhi truly embodied the non-violent perspective
Global community unity maybe you and me
Can sit down build upon love 'cause it's what we need
Let's get to farming and feeding the people starving
Across the whole planet
What's going on is alarming
Sustainable living
We don't need their provisions
We can grow it pick it an eat it
That's the world I envision
On a mission to spread peace
All around the world
Like Chase, paint a face
Make a beautiful mural
Africa needs peace
Europe and South America
Asia and Australia
Do you believe in miracles?
'Cause it can happen if everybody would tap in
To all the love in their hearts
And everyone started laughing
Time for action
No time to explain
It takes 6 billion willing people to change
Now imagine if the words of John Lennon would come alive
And every body in the world started to unite
Realize
It ain't far fetched - we can do it
Come together for a cause do it with the music
Use it, take time and pursue it
Dreams and aspirations are all up to you
'Cause everybody in the world wanna get free
And everybody in the world, wants peace!
One Love, One Blood, and One Heart
One People, One World, and One God
We gotta come together united for One Cause
Put your hands up in the air for peace!

Jackie Bristow was recently the opening act in New Zealand for Bonnie Raitt
This is a tasty filmed live performance by the independent New Zealand recording artist named Jackie Bristow and her original song titled Whistle Blowin'. The song sounds like a real country hit in the old-school sense. There is strength, depth and a certain stillness that comes from artists like this one who have so diligently honed their craft.
Two Februaries ago, we featured the studio version and the official music video to Whistle Blowin' on our sister site MusicLoad. (Click here to see that). The song was track #1 on her album titled Shot of Gold.
She is backed by Mark Punch on electric guitar, Nick Gaffaney on percussion and Alison Wunderland on bass.

Just below are the two most recent music videos by the Australian group known as The Avalanches from their second studio album titled Wildflower.
The first song below is titled Because I'm Me. It's a skit, almost like some Michael Jackson videos, as much as it's a song or just another music video. When the rap came in, it's almost sounded like Brother Ali, but research proved otherwise and it turns out The Avalanches are featuring the rap/hip-hop duo known as Camp Lo.

Ravyn Lenae - Alive
Ravyn Lenae - Sleep Talking (From her debut EP titled Moon Shoes)
Here is a song that is a little bit like a nursery rhyme and a lot like a dream. A emerging independent artist named Samantha Preis created a eerily captivating original song titled Lost For Me. Her voice is so sensitive and fragile sounding, filled with emotions of memories as if it's "the end" or something as deep. It is a stellar delivery of a song that I prefer to hear turned up before simply closing my eyes to lay back and listen. But the video and the artist is beautiful to look at too. It appears that this may be her first real music video. If you are like me, you will listen and watch this more than once and it may grow on you. For all music supervisors tuning in, consider this as a soundtrack for the right feature film.

Sony Music's hard working and growing Danish recording artist known as MØ and her infectious song named Final Song still has legs after it's summer debut on her second studio album. The video was shot in the California Desert National Conservation Area. Produced by Hugo Peers, the video was directedbyTomasWhitmore and director of photography, Nicholas "Niko" Wiesnet.
We previously featured an outstanding music video to a tasty song titled Fool To Love by a mixed genre female artist known as Nao. Her debut album titled For All We Know was released on July 29 along with her second music video titled Girlfriend which was released August 1. The song is one that you may want to lay back and listen to with your eyes closed more times than you watch this video. It will take your mind places. The song is a dandy soul opera worth repeating.
Last month on our sister site, TheIndies.Com, we featured an audio only recording of a Rosa Pullman song titled Daydreaming. I referred to her as "a real deal indie girl musician, songwriter and soul sister". That's exactly what she is!
Just below is one of our favorite live takes of Rosa. Her song is titled Ready For You. It was filmed in August of 2015 when she performed at The Intersection LA, which is known as a magical little house in Los Feliz/Silverlake, California, where resident and transient Los Angeles artists meet and play music at a new crossroads for musicians and their audience.

And, here is another tasty song titled Walk On, also filmed at The Intersection LA. She is accompanied by the talented musicians Shiben Bhattacharya on guitar, Jason Hiller on bass, and Michael Jerome Moore on drums.

Here is a young artist, who at 16 years old, recently released her first indie album. Just below are her first two music videos. Another young artist, a very busy 24 year old videographer, shot the videos.
From the town of Leiden in the Netherlands, Oscar de Jong, Mark Kneppers and Wim Plug make up a music production trio known as Kraak & Smaak. This song below is one of their many mixes and creative music videos from several years ago that still has legs. It features the vocals of Ben Westbeech. Enjoy!
Tonight I was walking down the street and heard a very beautiful and soulful voice and a piano emanating from an outdoor restaurant and just had to walk in to figure out who it was.
Her name is Alex Nester. When I got home I looked her up. I learned that, besides the fact that she has been honing her craft and paying her musical dues for quite a while, at age 16 she was diagnosed with Non-Hodgekins Lymphoma, but overcame it all and is now cancer free.
The song I heard tonight that brought me in off the street was one that sounds like it was just meant for Joss Stone to cover. Ms. Nester said it had not been recorded, yet.
As I was browsing through her websites looking for a music video to feature here, I couldn't help but laugh when I saw her "No Auto-Tune" logo posted on much of her promotional material.
I found this song below that is obviously sung from the heart of a girl who overcame what was most likely assumed an early death. Kudos to you, Alex Nester, for staying in the game and keeping it 100% organic.
Off the independent Future Classic imprint, just below are the music videos from Australian artist Chet Faker (who now is known as Nick Murphy) for his songs titled Gold, 1998 and Talk Is Cheap from his album titled Built on Glass.
Please click the play button on the first video, go hi-res & fullscreen and

For regular visitors to these pages, Nneka needs no introduction. She is one of the heaviest global artists of substance to keep an eye and your ear on. She and her music personifies the spirit where the humanitarian meets political messages of Bob Marley, Nina Simone, John Lennon, Fela Kuti and Michael Jackson when they were alive and in their primes.
Below is the music video to one of Nneka's songs titled Book of Job which will be off a full album titled My Fairy Tales, due out in March 2015. Visit Nneka's site referenced below for details on pre-order perks and worldwide concert dates. Enjoy!
Warning: This video may induce nightmares, scary twisted dreams and un-pure thoughts. It contains foul language and if you are under 18, your mommy might not want you to watch this.
Here is the latest song and music video by the always provocative and one of a kind South African duo known as Die Antwoord. This is another excellent one, with too many cameos to list. This act is visionary genius on so many levels, not just music, that they defy description. Absolutely love Yolandi and Ninja. Enjoy!
The first time we featured Birdy and four of her videos was back in a March of 2012 post where we wrote: "The songs below are by a gifted girl who can sit down at the piano and sing her ass off with no pomp or circumstance and deliver the goods with exceptional perfection. Her sensitive and emotionally driven angelic voice is mind alteringly beautiful." Standing by our previous statement, we are proud to present the latest single from Birdy titled Not About Angels from The Fault In Our Stars film soundtrack. Enjoy!
