One Girl One Mic

It's that time again!! Time for the UAW Big 3: Ford, GM, and Stellantis (Chrysler) to negotiate our contract for the next 3 years. Last time I sat down with Mark McElroy to discuss these issues we were faced with and now 3 years later I'm joined with another great Union Rep. and union brother Rodney (also a childhood friend). This time the fight is different because as of 9/15/23 we are officially on STRIKE! A bottle neck strike might I add which is the 1st of its kind! History is being made right before our eyes! Listen as me and Rodney answer some questions people may have concerning the contract and hear the prospective from ACTUAL union workers involved in this fight! After listening I'm positive you will understand our fight and stand with the UAW in solidarity.

Do you start your New Year in the winter (January) or in the spring (March)? Me? SPRING!! So, HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Let's jump right into Episode 2. Me and JG (have ya'll peeped that JG is a part of the pod now??!!) talk about what New Year resolutions and rituals. How do you prepare yourself to welcome in the New Year? We have a very interesting discussion about TIME! YES! TIME!!! Having the correct mindset on time can and will make a huge difference in our lives. I've found that as I get older my needs are changing...we have to be mindful to change with the times! Somethings I wanted in my 20's I have to desire for now. How has your needs changed? And are you seeking things for THIS TIME or PAST TIMES? Listen and let me hear your thoughts. Like always, Be Good. Be Safe and don't forget to LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE to the podcast.

Ya'll thought I forgot?! Nope! I'm back with new episodes and a semi new direction of the podcast. One Girl One Mic Podcast is a "Lifestyle podcast, told through Hip Hop". With that being said, some new episodes will be 'artist based' to give us a chance to breakdown our favorite artist and have discussions. First up...Lil Wayne! In this season opener, JG and I sit down and break the GENIUS who is "Mr. Carter" down. How many careers does this man have in him? We start with this early career all the way up until now. Is Lil Wayne in your top 5? I'll be honest, I didn't realize he has been making hits for this long. His catalog is by far one of the greatest. So, sit back and enjoy as we go down the 'Lil Wayne' rabbit hole.

Welcome back! Man have I MISSED this mic! And MISSED ya'll! I've been busy being inspired. How much different is the world after Covid? Have you taken in everything different that's around you? If you haven't given this any thought, please do BEFORE you listen. On this episode, I talk with LB and JG and we discuss what got me inspired to get back on this mic. #1. Kendrick Lamar's new project dropped and the video for " The heart part 5" and I have never been so moved by a music video! #2. Season 3 of ATLANTA. We discuss episode 4 "The big payback". ****SPOILER ALERT**** [ IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED IT YET, PLEASE SO BEFORE YOU LISTEN] Donald Glover is an absolute Genius! In season 3 episode 4, we watch as regular white people pay regular black people a "restitution tax" for the sins of their ancestors....oh it's good ya'll!!! BTW....I'M BACK!

New format coming soon! Stay tuned!

Hey Ya'll! We are at episode #40! Yay! So, you know it's only right LB bless the mic with her presence. OMG! So many laughs! I would apologize for the laughing but I'm not sorry. Listen as me and LB catch up on what's going on today, of course, we manage to discuss some very real issues as well. Ladies, are ya'll dating bisexual men? Black men, do ya'll really like black women or are we really good for "what we bring to the table?" So many times, LB and I have thought about recording our private talks because they really are good...well, here it is.

Hope you enjoy

WHEW!!! OK, ya'll I was finally able to get this male platonic friendship episode done! The 1st two attempts didn't go BAAADD but nah, I had to bring in my High School male BFF!! Rodney!! And man did we unpack some stuff!! iLL Will joined us along with his nephew Nygel, who was able to give his insight from a younger perspective. My brother missed his episode and decided to join in on the conversation as well. Great episode! After recording these episodes my opinion on male and female platonic friendships has totally changed. Men really do wait YEARS to smash! Whole time we thinking that's our "brother" he waiting for the perfect time to slide in the panties! What is your opinion?

I start off solo, then my Girl showed up! Ya'll know who!!! None other than LB!!! LB blessed us with her great energy as we chop it up about music. Have ya'll noticed Lil Wayne has been SNAPPING lately?!! I mean SHEESH!!! Could we be witnessing the greatest rap come back of all time? Both LB and JG agree that we can't determine that until he puts out a project, I have to respect that opinion. I'll gladly sit on the sidelines and be a witness, cause somebody has to tell the story, and I'll be right with my mic...TELLING IT! I also propose that Icewear Vezzo is the official rep for Detroit rappers, lol!!! How ya'll feel about that? And you KNOW we had to break down Jay Z verse on Kayne West project "Donda". Let me know your thoughts on my lil Wayne theory. As always Be Good and make sure you like and subscribe to the podcast and follow me on IG: 1GIRL1MIC

Nineteen years, 7 months, and 12 days is the amount of time Marvin Cotton sat in a State prison for a crime he did not commit. In this episode, I sit down with Marvin Cotton on his 90th day of being released from prison, exonerated of ALL charges, a free man now. We talk about his beginning years leading up to his arrest, life in prison, fighting everyday for his freedom, and Life After. Marvin is now an advocate to help other men and women that have been wrongly convicted. After interviewing him, it really made me look into the integrity that prosecution holds. How can they can continue to prosecute people while being fully aware that laws have been broken and rights have been violated in the process? How are they not held responsible for this negligence?

Now ya'll know One Girl One Mic had to jump in the conversation about the legendary Verzus battle we all witnessed. I brought my Brother (El' Fresho) any my cousin (Ashleigh) on this episode to help put things into prospective from the younger generation. We have some old times favorites on this episode as well; ill Will, J Smoove and LB. Of course things get heated, as they should when talking about music. Hold tight, things get a lil crazy!

OK, now we are getting somewhere! Ladies, in episode #29 of "Ladies, ya'll alright?" we kicked it one on one about some of our bullshit and shortcomings. I wanted to continue that conversation with some amazing ladies and get their opinion on the topic. I'm joined by Heather, Sheree ( Sweet and Salty Scrubs), A.D. and L.B. We dive right into how our childhood has a direct effect on the adults we are today, i.e. unlearning passed down behavior and holding ourselves accountable. Things get deep, but these are the conversations we need to have in order grow. Be on the look out for PART 3, when we add men to the conversation. Make sure you check out episode #29 "Ladies, ya'll alright?" if you haven't done so already to fully embody this conversation.

Yes, another Sex Episode. We can never have enough conversations about sex, right?! Things are always changing and evolving, and the rules change too. On this episode, I sit down with Dr. Vee who has a Ph.D in Sexuality. Dr. Vee is a self proclaimed sex nerd, so this episode is a look at sex from a factual view. Dr. Vee energy is EVERYTHING! I hope WE were able to answer some questions, if not drop them on the IG page and I'll see if she can come back for a part 2!

With October being Breast Cancer and Domestic violence awareness month I couldn't think of a better person to sit down with and talk to about both serious subjects. On this episode, I sit down with Rhonda Logan and have a very open discussion about her being a Breast Cancer survivor and also a domestic abuse survivor as well. I've known Rhonda for a while now and hearing her story is so inspiring to me. I thought this was a story that I needed to share. Of course, we are our naturals selves, so we share a lot of laughs but the message is still very clear; Make sure you get your regular check ups. And ladies please don't ignore early red flags of an abusive mate, even if you ignored them, leave now!

 Ladies, ya'll might be a little mad at me after this episode. I'm flying solo this time, so it's just US. I thought it was time to ask a really hard question: " Are Black Women ever held accountable for our toxic behavior?" I know, I know, Black Women are the backbone of this society, we always do the most and seem to come in last, but does that give us a pass to go through life never being held accountable for our shortcomings or unchecked behavior? Listen as I share my personal thoughts on this topic. If you agree or disagree, let me know!

Whew!! This episode was supposed to be on "Bridging the gap between younger n' older women" but somehow we went left and I get real emotional talking about Chris Brown being shady to Usher for a Verzus battle (please excuse my yelling). LOL.  I'm joined by my younger cousin Ashleigh who is doing big things in the PR world! It's always a pleasure when LB and JG bless us with their presence. We "managed" to have a great debate about music. I promise you, it's not a dull moment on this episode. I'll pose the same questions to you as I did my guest: "When Did You Fall In Love With Hip hop?" Like always make sure you Like and Subscribe to the podcast and be sure to follow on IG @1GIRL1MIC.

Trust me you don't wanna miss this episode! Listen in as I sit with Anthony and Q as we discuss: Dating men that has been to prison. Q added the balance we needed being a straight male that served time in prison. We cover some interesting topics on this episode. Guaranteed to have you laughing but also give you something to think about. Men that have done time in prison often get a bad rep, maybe we can change that narrative.

On this episode I sit down with my pastor Arric Wilkerson from Up From The World Ministries to discuss religion, the Bible, and a host of other things. In today's society there are a lot of people who have given up on "traditional religion". Listen as Pastor Wilkerson break down some myths and give a clear understanding on some long standing questions. I titled this episode Part 1 because after listening to it myself, we HAVE to do a Part 2. I tried to cover as much as I could, but with a subject like this, it's almost impossible. Listen with an open mind and heart.

Join me and LG as we break down this thing called "Friendship".  My reference song for this episode is by the famous 90's rap artist Juvenile from his titled album "400 Degreez" called "Ha".  He says, " You grew up with them n#ggas, you stuck with them n#gga's." But I question, are you really stuck with them? How often do you reevaluate your friendship circle? Are you as forgiving to your friend as you are to your lovers? We go deep into this topic and break down some myths. I've also had some "aha" moments during this conversation as well.  So, please let me know your thoughts by leaving a comment @1girl1micpodcast on IG.  Please don't forget to like and share this podcast episode.
