Omg I just "discovered" you. I have shared your Black is Beautiful video with our school principal, my daughter, friends, colleagues, everyone I know that can embrace the message and pass on the love. Our daughter attends an African Center school in Chicago. I wish you were local because our family would be able to come to your performances. You are amazing and so inspirational. I do criminal defense work and currently my clients are juveniles. My heart would soar if I could share these songs AND my "babies" (I don't call them defendants) would know that they are Worthy! We are a beautiful - strong - proud Village and we must help our kids navigate the terrain of low self-esteem and remind them that our people are survivors .... we are Soldiers. .. together We are Love! Thanks and Be Blessed.
Thank you MrsLadylaw. I appreciate your message so much. I believe that education has to be holistic and that our children must know that they come from greatness! Your message gives me so much power and hope. Thank you sincerely.
This song is beautiful and the video is equally beautiful! I watched it several time! Schools should be playing this this time of the year! Thank you Lovely Hoffman!! Happy Kwanzaa!!
Peace. Thanks for the compliment. I totally agree with you, I think many schools should be using this song. But, I am glad you enjoyed it. Please share it with others. Also, subscribe to my youtube channel if you haven't already. Have a wonderful Kwanzaa!
Miss Lovely.. I am a music teacher and I am SOO grateful for this song. What a beautiful song that address the Seven Principals.! Would you be willing to share an instrumental version so that we can sing this in our Concert next month?? It is such a struggle to find a quality song about Kwanzaa and yours is perfect!
Hi Aimee! Thank you so much! I am honored that you are teaching the children this song. I am a teacher also so I completely understand. You can email me at info@lovelyhoffman.com and I will send you the instrumental. Please put "Kwanzaa Instrumental" in the heading.
You've gifted the world with a very beautiful Kwanzaa song, captured in a dynamic way which educates, empowers, motivates, and makes me want to get up and dance, sharing it with others! I'm on my way to put this on my Facebook now! Thank you!
This song made me so happy!!! We needed a heart lifting song to celebrate Kwanzaa and Lovely Hoffman, you gave it to us. Thanks to you and all of your collaborators-musicians, videographers, Brother VCR. I just Love it!!! Also thank you for recognizing the art of John Wilson, creator of "Eternal Presence" at the Museum as well as many creative and meaningful murals around the community. You are a gem. Keep shining!!
+Ekua Holmes Thank you so much! I am just so blessed by the response from the children and community. I really feel this was a necessity for our people. Your comment made my day. Peace and Blessings!
