SHE WANTS AN ARTIST WRITER.

She runs for one after her heart got crashed, she fell for the books,

She fell for their charm both short and tall, she just didn’t get the hooks,

Who was real and could keep her immortal, if she chose not the looks?

Her heart wanted peace and something to hold, she misses just one that overlooks,

All her past and weaknesses, She wants an artist writer.

He will touch her heart with a magic hand; he knows and feels her pain,

He will keep her warm and sing her favorite lines; he grows and creates her gain,

Why is it that he knows she has to remain immortal, does pen and paper soothe her pain?

His heart will hurt when she gets wet, let’s her be wet coz it is a good thing but not in rain,

All her days and nights, She wants an artist writer.

They are never going to stay forever coz that’s life, but she knows her memory will be printed,

They will never live happily without a challenge coz that’s normal, yet her tears will be painted,

Where else do you find a balance in life than the arms of one, who keeps your soul ever scented?

Their days and nights will run smooth not because it is normal, but with words forever cemented,

He will make her immortal and Yes She wants an artist writer.

One who will make her soul live forever not because she won’t die, but on paper she reigns forever,

One that will touch her heart in a special way not when she is alive, but when down and sad allover,

That one who asks no sorry questions yet answers all her rhetoric status, what more can fill her over?

One to cry when she cries and make her smile when she is blue, yet not an ex because they love forever,

Not too much but genuine, She wants an artist writer.

SHOW ME THE LIGHT TO FAME.

What is fame? Probably a question that most of the current generation pull of their hair trying to answer. However easy it might look or seem from the many popular superstars we have globally but one lady tends to disagree by the notion that is fame.

Based in Stockholm, Sweden with African origin and Tanzania to be specific, meet Lady Nuru Magram popularly known as NURU THE LIGHT in the music circles. She has seen it all or say most of the fame that any star can have. Nuru is a musician, an artist a dancer and an entrepreneur with investments back home in Dar es Salaam while she does consulting in Sweden where she is based.

As an advice to the upcoming artists and those on their way to stardom, Nuru puts it clear; “Fame is weighty, fame is a responsibility that not just anybody can handle, I meet several people who insist that dear Nuru help me become famous, I am a musician and I know I am good, I want to try fashion too like you or others also want to be professional dancers etc.

“My question to all of them is; you want to do music because it is your talent and calling or you want to do it for fame?”

“Do you even understand what fame is?” I’ve been famous since I was 16 till up to date, Fame is not what I wanted but it just came about from the work I do and my achievements in the society”.
I want you to ask yourself “What is fame to you? Is it something you can handle?

Fame comes both ways in the best ways and the worst ways. Fame comes with challenges that maybe you would not have undergone if you were not famous.

Fame is like an addictive drug that when you just taste and it gets into your system, it both runs to your head and overwhelms you. Making you lose focus and direction in life leaving all the people depending on you at crossroads and confused. On the other hand if you use your fame in a wise way and keep your integrity, you can change the society in ways that not even the president can do.

 

It is also not a must you be famous to become a role model and bring change. We should live every day knowing that in our environment there are people looking up to us as their inspiration and ambassadors. These people want to follow your footsteps and therefore we have to live responsibly.

Ladies specifically must learn to invest and be self-reliant and independent. I am personally an entrepreneur and an investor back home in Tanzania. I wake up daily knowing I have a responsibility to fulfil and above all I am a role model to many who would one day want to be like me.

I preach love and peace in my music. I don’t like disrespect; I am humble and down to earth. I am fun loving and love fashion. Everything about me is fashionable in my own way.

I keep praying that the youth in my home country back in Africa can wake up, say no to poverty and learn to hustle their own way out of desperacy without expecting help from politicians and other popular people who take advantage of their weakness to exploit them.
