Harlem, Good or Bad- Al Green




Yes, real estate is crazy;
Harlem's getting lazy;
Hard to fight, too;

But sometimes the yuppies aren't so baaaad;
Home boy yuppies are also to be had;;
So, let's keep it together;
Harlem forever,,,,,
For good, bad, happy or sad...

Lots going on in Harlem, but Black New York goes way beyond Harlem as well. And remember your I Love Harlem teeshirts at Iloveharlem.net.

David Lamb, the creator of "Platanos and Collard Greens" has a new play out called "Auction Block to Hip Hop." It is being billed as a critical view of the negative stereotypes of Afro-American women in the Hip Hop scene. The show began Dec 16 at the Baruch Performing Arts Center. It seems to be pretty hot and heavy. For example, a Grammy Award for the hit tune "Pimping Isn't Easy"? Worth checking out.
