Keisha Lance Bottoms Sworn in as 60th Mayor of Atlanta

Published

on

Keisha Lance Bottoms celebrated her victory for mayoral elect of Atlanta back in December. Bottoms took her oath of office during an inauguration ceremony in the Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel at Morehouse College on Tuesday. She promised in her inaugural speech to work on fighting homelessness, to improve transparency at City Hall and to create a senior-level staff position for education, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.

Bottoms beat fellow council member Mary Norwood who had requested a recount after initial certified vote totals showed her losing to Bottoms by 832 votes, a margin of less than 1 percent.

Her win sparked a lot of talk throughout social media as Atlantans and other celebrities congratulated her on her win and the fact that Atlanta would soon be having a mayor named “Keisha.”

Bottoms poked a little fun at the lighthearted joke during her speech at her inauguration. “Only in Atlanta could a girl named Keisha, who attended Frederick Douglass High School on the west side, grow up to become the 60th mayor of the great city of Atlanta,” she said.

Her swearing in makes her Atlanta’s 60th mayor and the city’s sixth consecutive Black mayor since Maynard Jackson was elected in 1973. Maintaining the long streak of Black mayors in Atlanta was very important to the citizens of Atlanta as we saw during the campaign season.

“Drugs From The Sky” by SwizZy B & Noopey Na’mon: A Hauntingly Powerful Anthem

Published

on

“Drugs From The Sky,” the latest single from SwizZy B & Noopey Na’mon of LoUd Life Crew, is a masterclass in emotional depth and atmospheric production. This under-three-minute track is more than just a song – it’s an immersive experience that demands to be felt.

The Hook: A Hypnotic and Melancholic Earworm

The chorus is a work of art, with the repetition of “drugs from the sky” becoming a metaphor for escapism and the search for relief. The hook is both catchy and meaningful, sticking with you long after the song is over.

The Verses: A Study in Contrasts

SwizZy B’s verse sets the tone with his soft-spoken yet heavy delivery. His lyrics are a poignant exploration of emotional numbness and the need for escape. Noopey Na’mon’s verse, on the other hand, is a raw and intense counterpoint, tackling themes of betrayal, self-destruction, and the search for truth.

The Dynamic Between Them: A Powerful Chemistry

The contrast between SwizZy B’s vulnerability and Noopey Na’mon’s intensity creates a compelling narrative. Their chemistry is organic and effortless, telling two sides of the same mental battle.

The Beat: Atmospheric and Cinematic

The production is top-notch, with a dreamlike quality that perfectly complements the emotional weight of the lyrics. The instrumental is cinematic without being overdone, giving space for the lyrics to breathe.

A Story of Struggle and Resilience

“Drugs From The Sky” is more than just a vibe – it’s a story of mental battles, emotional exhaustion, and the search for relief. It’s a powerful and relatable anthem that speaks to anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed or lost.

A Classic in the Making

With its intimate atmosphere and emotional honesty, “Drugs From The Sky” feels like an underground classic in the making. LoUd Life Crew continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in music, and SwizZy B & Noopey Na’mon are at the forefront of this movement.
