Bing Bing invites you to join his 2016 Walk to End Alzheimer's team

The reason why Bing Bing is walking to help end Alzheimer's is not just because he lost someone
close to him from this horrible disease. He's walking because statistically, Alzheimer's affects many of us and is significantly underfunded compared to causes like breast cancer, autism, and even charities that feed the homeless. In fact, the Alzheimer's Association isn't even in the nation's top 50 charities.

Michael Bing Bing Taylor has been on a mission to make a difference for a few years now. Last year, he was able to raise around $150 to help find a cure for Alzheimer's, however, he was unable to participate in any of the walks due to unforeseen circumstances. This year, in 2016, Bing Bing is looking to raise a minimum of $1,000 to honor his mother and caregivers by joining the Grand Champion's club.

"It's always emotional for me at these walks," says Bing Bing. "When I remember what brings me here, all I have to hold on to are memories from my childhood." Bing Bing is currently inviting anyone who would like to help make a difference in the world to join him for the Walk to End Alzheimer's in LA Live on Saturday November 12th, 2016. Join Bing Bing's Achiever Believers walking team with a $100 donation and receive a free Walk to End Alzheimer's T-Shirt!

Correction: Teena Marie's Pasadena, CA residence was located in the San Rafael area @ 1000 Laguna Road. Pasadena, CA 91105 Although the Ivory Queen of Soul and Rick James protege wasn't born in Pasadena, California , the fact that she lived off Laguna Road right here in Pasadena's San Rafael neighborhood means a lot for the local music scene . As you think about what Pasadena has been to the County of Los Angeles, you can only imagine the type of things that have transpired on the local music scene with Hollywood being so close.

Taye Zooited's "A Gangsta’s Way" (Album Review by Jhantu Randall)

Read More by Jhantu Randall I’ve covered Zooited Gang in articles quite a bit throughout the previous year, whether directly or indirectly. From highlighting them as a group to describing that high energy vibe they bring to every performance while also trying to show who they were as individual artists by pushing attention towards their videos. As a group, Zooited Gang has recently put out their project “Welcome To The Zoo” and now, fresh off of that, Taye Zooited is releasing his solo project “A Gangsta’s Way.” The sound of this project really sticks to the formula of what makes a quintessential West Coast album stand out. Including both heavy baselines and melodic hooks, each track creates an atmosphere which holds your attention as Taye and each one of his featured artists guide you through this sonic world. The opening track “I’mma Take It” sets up the vibe of whats to come as the title track, “Gangsta’s Way” is where I feel the true introduction stays. The next track, “On Me” whic...
