Sounds of Detroit: Celebrating 50 Years of J Dilla featuring The Pharcyde, Rich Medina, and more at Herbert Von King Park

On Friday, July 12, 2024, SummerStage, in association with Fusicology & Future x Sounds, presented a free show in Herbert Von King Park in Brooklyn in celebration of producer J Dilla’s 50th birthday. There were DJ sets from Breakbeat Lou and Rich Medina plus live performances by Detroit’s Slum Village (J Dilla was a member of the group) and South Central Los Angeles’ The Pharcyde, whose sophomore album, Labcabincalifornia, was produced by J Dilla and released in 1995.

I covered the celebration concert on Friday night for BrooklynVegan and the full gallery is now available on their website here.

[relentless-boredom]

Behold, my main, then and now (early ARR and currently during DT)! My first ever Warrior of Light, my favorite, the one with all the stuff and achievements:

Imani Camoa

she/her

Race: Rava Viera

Age: 32 (at the start of ARR)

Canon jobs: Dragoon, Red Mage, Gunbreaker and Astrologian

Imani grew up in an isolated Viera village in the Golmore Jungle. While they were mostly unthreatened by the Garlean Empire at this point her people watched the red moon Dalamud fall from the sky from the relative safe distance of their ancestral home. Only after did Imani start to experience strange dreams of foreign lands and a disembodied voice whispering to her. Feeling this strange invisible force pull her towards the west she made the decision to follow it, knowing full well she could never return home...

I could write on forever about her and I will probably be posting more of her story and her personal experiences soon but first it's time to introduce the others as well.

Royal Love +epilogue 👑❤️

Summary: M'baku is a 19 year old prince who will soon take the throne of jabariland. His father has arranged a marriage for him as it has been a tradition for years but, Mbaku is not happy. One day he meets a stunning girl named y/n and his life changes in the blink of an eye.

Mbaku Pov🤎:

I was awakened by the voice of my two guards Amina and Imani. "My prince, wake up. We have very important things scheduled for today." Amina said. "I've already sent for your breakfast to be prepared. It should be done by the time you finish getting ready." Imani added. "Thank you Amina and Imani." I thanked them. They nodded in response. They left my room so that I could get ready. I brushed my teeth, washed my face, took a shower and got dressed in my royal attire for today. I've just turned 19 only two weeks ago and my father is already hassling me about an arranged marriage. I wish to find my own wife but no matter how many times I bring it up he doesn't listen. I made my way downstairs and ate breakfast with my parents. "Mbaku I've found a wife for you. Her name is princess Sarai from the merchant tribe." my dad told me happily. *here we go again* I thought. "Father I've already told you. I'm not marrying her." I said annoyed. "It's tradition. You're about to become king, no? You can't become king without a wife. "IM NOT MARRYING HER!" I yelled. I'm so angry at my father all he seems to care about is the throne and to him, anything outside of that is irrelevant. "Ay you dare to speak to your father this way eh? The marriage is happening in three days end of discussion." My father spat.

When nightfall came I packed all of my things and brought along food and weapons. I planned to run away from the palace. *i can't be forced to marry someone if I'm not here* I thought.

*timeskip for 1 hour*

By now, I was long gone from my kingdom leaving behind my family, tribe, and the throne. I needed to make a point to my father that he can't control me. I'm 19 I should have the right to make MY own decisions especially when it comes to marriage. It was nightfall when I saw a girl walking through the village. Her s/c( skin color) glistened in the moonlight. Her long locs of hair touched all the way to the middle of her back. "Can I help you?" She asked knocking me out of my trance. "Y-yeah. Can you tell me where I am? I've come from jabariland." I asked her. "Sure. You're in the mahi village which is not too far from the molwheni clan" the mystery girl replied. ( A/N: not sure if that's real it's the first thing I thought of 💀). "Do you have anywhere to stay?" She added. "No. Can you tell me the directions to a place?" I asked. I didn't want to trouble her but I also needed somewhere to stay. "Come." The girl replied while offering her hand. I took it and she led us to a large hut house near a waterfall. "This is my house. If you wish, You may stay here for however long you need. I don't want you going off by yourself this late at night." The girl told me. "Thank you. My name is Mbaku. What's yours?" I asked her. "My name is y/n nice to meet you." Y/n replied. "Nice to meet you as well" I told her. We were getting to know each other and I explained why I'd come here.

Y/n pov✨: i normally don't let people stay with me but Mbaku seems nice and I didn't want him out this late at night. When it gets late it's very dangerous and I wouldn't want him to get hurt. We talked for a little and I learned that he was a prince. We talked and eventually fell asleep.

*timeskip to one week*

Mbaku has been staying here with me for a week now and I enjoy his company. I've always lived alone and it was nice to have someone to talk and spend time with. Unfortunately, he is leaving to go back with his kingdom. I have developed strong feelings for him but I feel its way too early for a relationship at the moment. I helped mbaku pack his things and got ready to walk him out. "Y/n Wait i have to talk to you before I go" he spoke. "I'm listening" I told him. "It's only been a week but it feels like I've known you forever. I have strong feelings for you and you're the only person who has made me feel this much happiness in a long time. Would you like to come back to jabariland with me?" Mbaku spoke. I thought about it for a second while taking everything in. "Yes I'd love to come with you under one condition" I responded. He looked up at me to let me know he was listening. "Can we get to know each other more before any relationship between us? I don't want us to move too fast." I added. "Yes princess anything for you. I need a wife to become king but that is the least of my concern right now. I genuinely want to be with you and Im willing to wait however long it takes until you're ready." Mbaku replied. The both of started to walk back to jabariland as we held hands and talked.

Mbaku Pov🤎:

*Timeskip*

By now y/n and I had made it back to jabariland. She suggested that we both share a room due to her not being familiar with the palace (a/n: y/n didn't want to be by herself) and of course I agreed. While y/n was preparing for bed I went to go speak with my mother. I didn't even want to look at my father let alone speak to him. When it came to marriage and things in general, my mother has always been more understanding than my father. When we talked, I explained to her where I went, why I left, and the reason I didn't want to marry princess Sarai. She understood where I was coming from and she agreed to talk to my father about it. I made my way back to me and y/n's room where I found her already asleep. I took a shower, brushed my teeth and face, and changed into my sleepwear. Afterwards, I got in the bed and snuggled close to y/n and dozed off to sleep.

A/n: i don't feel like putting a bunch of different pov's and time skips and I also didn't wanna leave y'all on a cliffhanger so i wrote a epilogue😭

Epilogue: y/n and mbaku dated for about 2 years and 6 months before they got married. M'baku's mom talked to his dad and after some time he agreed to call off the planned wedding for princess Saraí and mbaku. Instead, mbaku and y:n got married and a bunch of gifts were given to them by the people of their tribe. They received clothes, jewelry, etc. about 6 months after their wedding y/n discovered that she was pregnant. She had birthed one girl and one boy. Mbaku and y/n named them g/n and b/n( girl name and boy name. it can be any name you want btw). Y/n and mbaku both ruled as king and queen until their son b/n became old enough to inherit the throne. Their daughter was next in line but she had chosen to be a warrior instead of a ruler.

A/n: thats it for this imagine but the next one will be about tchalla since I haven't done anything about him yet so stay tuned! Hopefully you enjoyed this imagine and let me know what you would like to see more of, comments, etc.

Amara Estancia & The Throne Built on Secrets

As I sit in the twilight of my reign, pen poised over pages that have yet to bear witness to the truth, I am compelled to recount the journey that led me here. It is not for absolution or sympathy, but for the record of history—so that the legacy of my efforts might be understood in their full context.

Born in the stark village of Ashmont, my childhood was defined by a relentless environment that taught me early on about survival and ambition. The austere landscape was both a cradle and a crucible, forging a resolve in me that was as unyielding as the cliffs surrounding my early world. I outgrew Ashmont quickly, my aspirations extending far beyond its confines.

My ambition led me to a forbidden path—a dark pact that promised more than mere survival: it offered a throne. The ancient entity that whispered promises of power was my benefactor and my curse. This pact was my ascension and shackles, providing the means to rise to power but binding me to an eternal game of shadows.

The demise of my husband, the king, marked my true rise to power. It was a calculated act, born of necessity rather than malice. His death was not an act of passion but a strategic move to secure my position and implement my vision for Briarwisp. As queen, I wore the dual veils of benevolence and ruthlessness, each as necessary as the other in the art of governance.

Perhaps the darkest of my deeds was the curse laid upon my daughter, Tijani. It was meant to bind her to my will, to secure my legacy through her. Yet, it was this act that would eventually lead to the unraveling of all I had built. I did not foresee that my granddaughters, shielded from the magical world, would one day return to Briarwisp, their powers awakening to the truth of their heritage.

Imani, Jade, and Jasmine—each a bearer of formidable magic—pieced together the mosaic of secrets and spells that was their legacy. It was their quest for truth that peeled back the layers of my carefully constructed sovereignty, exposing the foundation of darkness upon which it was built.

Now, as I reflect upon my reign, I see the cost of power, the weight of the crown, and the echoes of choices that reverberate through generations. My story is not one of simple villainy but a complex web of necessity, ambition, and the deep, often painful, love for my kingdom and my family.

These writings are not an apology- my life required decisions that many may never forgive. Instead, they are an explanation, a hope that in understanding my motives, the shadows of my actions might be seen as part of a larger narrative of survival and sovereignty in a world that respects only power.

[ IMAGE ID:

A digitally drawn character reference sheet for an original character, Scarlet Omondi. On the left, Scarlet is posing with full shading and highlights. She is dark-skinned woman floating above a sigil brimming with scarlet-colored flames. She looks to be in her early adulthood. She has straight hair that extends to her neck and is colored dark black, dyed purple in the middle and pink at the end. She is dressed in a purple witch's robe with bell sleeves and a matching witch hat, the latter of which is also partially alight with scarlet-colored flames. The robe splits in the middle, revealing a slip in a lighter shade of purple.

She also wears a pendant with 3 small round dark magenta gemstones, a belt with a large silver buckle engraved with a picture of a crow, dark gloves with more magenta gemstones on the center of each back hand, plum-colored tights, and knee-length black boots with medium-sized metal block heels.

She is looking toward you with a determined smile. Her left hand is extended out toward you, with a bright fireball the size of her palm blazing in the center. Her right hand holds a leather-case book. The title reads, "Harnessing Magic, 4th edition, by Imani Kariuki".

At the top-left is Scarlet Omondi's name, written in curved letters. The first S is styled like a lombardic capital (the first letters in European medieval age manuscripts), with a box bright reddish colors in the black adorned by a scarlet gemstone border. Below the name are Scarlet's pronouns, she/her.

At the top-right is an excerpt of Scarlet Omondi's story. Begin story:

"A witch in training, channeling her passion made flame. Headstrong & well-read, Scarlet’s unrelenting determination to ace her exams is matched only by her unbound curiosity to learn about the magical world around her. Born an overachiever, Scarlet does everything and anything she thinks of to put on talent shows and creative projects that roar with energy and ludicrously deep research. After a blinding lightshow of pyromancy, Scarlet forever ignited her reputation as the talk of the village, but not without a scathing mark on her school record.

Despite her lasting impression as a hot shot, Scarlet’s friends know her as endearingly geeky bookworm, a cauldron of humor, and most of all, an ever-reliable textbook and study partner. Even so, Scarlet’s self-control and workaholic tendencies remained unlearnt life lessons… until she met a transfer student and nurtured the mellow side that no book could write in words." End story.

Below the story box are Scarlet's likes, dislikes, and identifiers. Scarlet likes reading outside, talent shows, painting, fashion, and pastries. She does not like egotists, messes, rain, poorly-written romance, and distractions. She is 5 feet and 7 inches tall, or 170 centimeters. She weighs 138 pounds, or 63 kilograms. She is 19 years old, and her birthday is on April 9th.

In the middle of the image are 3 sketches. The first depicts Scarlet with circle-framed glasses and her mouth open, revealing a small fang. She is excitedly talking about one of her new favorite creations, indicated by a speech bubble. The next shows Scarlet posing back to back with a friend, who has straight hair as long as her body, two horns made of ice, a teardrop shaped gem embedded on her forehead, and a snow-patterned kimono with oversized sleeves. The last sketch shows Scarlet coming up with an idea, with her hand on her chin in a thinking pose, and an exclamation mark above her head. There is text next to her that reads, "Hat fires up when focusing or excited".

On the right of the image are two designs pertaining to her accessories. The first is her primary sigil, used to channel most of her magic. It is made of 7 letters, reshaped and put together to resemble an active fire. The letters are P, S, N, M, D, F, and L, borrowed from this phrase and Scarlet's desire, "Passion made flame". The second is a close up of her belt buckle, showing a more detailed design of the same crow.

On the bottom-right of the image are 3 full body drawings of Scarlet, drawn in different angles and with flat colors. She is drawn facing forward, to the side, and backward. She holds the same pose in each, with a neutral expression, standing up straight, and relaxing her left arm while extending her right arm slightly out to the side.

Finally, in small letters on the bottom-left of the image, is the artist's signature, Zettaflake.

Oh my gosh, I'm so excited to be back!

Scarlet Omondi, the passion made flame, ignites her debut as character sheet #6!

An emerging witch brimming with a library's worth of knowledge and a personality hot to the touch. She's a free pass to ace your exams, if you can handle the heat!

As for the transfer student she met... she's up next, muahaha >:)

Imani (Faith):

Imani, celebrated on the seventh day of Kwanzaa (December 31st), stands for "Faith" in Swahili. This principle, pronounced Eee-maun-ee, emphasizes faith in our people, parents, teachers, leaders, and the collective struggle of the African-American community. Imani calls for a deep and enduring belief in the communal values, culture, and the resilience of the community.

Imani is more than just religious faith; it's about a profound commitment to the African-American community and its future. It involves believing in the righteousness and victory of the struggle for liberation and a higher level of human life. This principle also underscores the importance of having faith in oneself and one's capabilities to contribute positively to the community and to foster progress.

The principle of Imani brings Kwanzaa to a close, reinforcing the idea that faith is essential for sustaining the work and unity established in the previous principles. It is a reminder that belief in each other and in the collective goals is crucial for achieving lasting change and progress. Signifying a renewal of faith in the community, its values, and its future. It's a day to reflect on the achievements and challenges of the past and to look forward with optimism and confidence to the future.

( @valkyrie-of-the-rising-sun )

A hopefully quick debrief of the very self indulgent Supernatural Au!!!

How it started: I literally was just thinking about Sasha, and if he was a mermaid. Literally couldn't stop thinking about it, bc Sasha already is so fun to think about, but him as a man eating mermaid? Impossible to ignore.

What came after: I don't remember the exact events that lead to it, but at some point 1) I started to imagine what my other ocs would be like as monsters and 2) my friend Rowan ( @eclysia ) added Asfrith to the table ( bc at this point, Asfrith being tied to Sasha or ( especially) Isador was always a given, hehe) as a researcher of sorts of monsters. He uh. Was almost drowned by Sasha before Sasha thought it would be very funny to let him live. And thus started....whatever they got going on. Because Isador is Devil in Paragon, I thought it'd make sense if the twins were both demons in this au, and by proxy, Flynn. I could go into deeper detail but the main gist is that things Expanded than just " omg Mermaid Sasha he's so hot".

How's it going: While the world building is super set in stone, I'm honestly having fun here lol. Au's are great for showing sides of characters that aren't usually shown in canon. The post about Teddy is a big example.

I know this was supposed to be short but lemme breakdown the characters so far reaaaal quick:

Sasha: Mermaid. Favorites past time is sinking ships, eating humans, and looking amazing. Is currently having fun with his new little play thang ( Asfrith). Was planning on killing him when he finally gets bored but uh. Maybe not?

Isador: One half of the Arkwright Twins, he's still a grumpy bitch, but when business calls, he knows how to put on a performance~ Got connected to Asfrith when he summoned the two for a deal. Instead of taking Asfrith's soul like Isador wanted, Teddy instead offered to look after their cousin Flynn, hence, the two becoming more connected than Isador thought would be necessary.

Teddy: The other half of the Arkwright Twins, and is usually considered the friendly options. It doesn't help that he looks more angelic compared to his brother: no he's not half angel, he just looks like that. Great for business, easier to lure people into a false sense of security- Ahem. A sweetheart who can and will go on a rampage if you dare hurt his family. May or may not be a bit of gremlin. Who's to say ( Isador. Isador is to say)

Flynn: The twins younger cousin, a kitsune that is often in disguise in the village where this whole thing is taking place. She's terribly shy, and has low self confidence, much preferring to be away from the attention. Her parents believe they have power over the village - they don't - and often pester Flynn to do something in order to increase their- I mean her status. Really, her only solis her cousins, and bc of their business they tend to be too busy to visit. It's a lonely life, but she's fine....at least, she think she is until two humans(?) show up in her life

Imani: The only human of my ocs so far! Well not really, but I'll explain that later. Her story isn't fully fleshed out, but she's Asfrith self appointed assistant! She happens to hang out with monsters more often than not, even getting along with those she really really shouldn't be! But it's okay, more friends means a greater time!

Arrow: I'm still not sure but I'm working on it I swear! Maybe a harpy, but still gotta think about it.

Other ocs: So, this au is actually a build up on the old mermaid au I had featuring Leo and the reborn gang. Given how I didn't exactly want to get rid of it, I just decided that the old au and this au are the same thing, with different things happening to different people. They don't all have to know each other, these stories are, for the most part, separate but within the same time and place, basically. Aaaand. Yeah!

This was not short at all! Lmao. Hoped it was decent context though. Probably not, since it. Doesn't fully explain Teddy. Ah well.

[wrixie]

since your sim requests are open, I'll request this: A female werewolf that would be classed as a peppy villager (according to the ac wiki: energetic, excited, and ditzy, embodying the valley girl stereotype) in animal crossing, is a slob and likes to do embroidery but is bad at it. Curly hair, imperfect teeth. Hairy ! (a little mustache is fine too) She is fond of clowns, metal music and likes beekeeping. A little chubby.

Headcanon Info. About Original Mysticons

Note: As I will be discussing character deaths (i.e. how the original Mysticons died) this is dark. I know I have given them names before, but as I never made sure to keep them consistent, I thought I'd go through them. The info. will come from official sources when possible, but a lot has to be made up.

DRAGON MAGE: As we know, she is a human female named Imani Firewing. She was initially a very friendly person, but living through the hardships of being a Mysticon, including losing her closest friends, took its toll on her, slowly making her more serious. She lived to be in her mid to late thirties, and lost her life in the final battle with Necrafa.

RANGER: All we know about him for sure is that he's a human male. I will give him the name Antoine Oakroad. He was charismatic and athletic, and took his role as a hero seriously, to the point he was harsh with his fellow Mysticons. He was the first Mysticon killed, losing a battle against a horde of dragons that were attacking a village near Drake City. He was around 24 when this happened.

STRIKER: All we know is that she's an elvish female. I will give her the name Shava Siannodel (named after my first Dungeons and Dragons character). She was the brains of the group, and while she kept to herself in childhood, slowly warmed up to those she considered friends, like her fellow Mysticons. She lost her life due to a rare genetic elvish disease when she was 132 (I know the wikia says that she died due to the spectral hand, but the Wikia is wrong sometimes, and there's nothing official that says that).

KNIGHT: All we know about him is that he is a dwarvish male. I will give him the name Flint Greatbear. He was a bit of a prankster in the group, and never took anything too seriously. However, as time went on, he became more serious. While Flint and Imani didn't originally get along, they became closer as time went on, being great friends at the end. He was killed in a battle with Undead Spectres roughly a year before Imani.

Where? Aurora Bay Ball Who? @callum-ene​

Imani was having a great time. She had plenty to drink, had eaten far to many treats, and was loving the music and the change of scenery. She had never really had an opportunity to dress up before, and tonight she was definitely feeling like she belonged in a castle. She knew she wasn’t princess material...so she felt more like the lucky villager who snuck into the ball. Looking around, her eyes landed on the last person she expected to see. Running right up to Callum she smiled. “Well look at you! Damn. Out here making Calvin Klein nervous. Your male-modeling-ass-self.” She smiled and touched his tie. “I didn’t think I’d see you here!”

Chapter 3: Different venues in Fashion

Mirror Palais Spring 2023

New York Fashion week

Models:  Euphoria‘s Jesse Andrews and models Cindy Kimberly and Imani Randolph.

For New York Fashion Week, Mirror Palais showcased their Spring/Summer 2023 collection in a West Village church. Designer Marcelo Gaia built on his brand's exotic aesthetic with a breathtaking exhibition of spectacular gowns and ethereal translucent skirts and veils. Although many of his clothes are deemed revealing, none felt vulgar to display in the church because Gaia's inherently luxurious and simultaneously nostalgic designs quickly conjured up a sense of splendor that would easily suit an Italian gothic period.
