G-ONE, LA NUEVA PROPUESTA DEL GENERO MUSICAL URBANO VISITA LA CIUDAD DEL SOL DURANTE EL MES DE JUNIO

Luego de su gira de promoción por Suramérica nos visita en la ciudad de Miami la agrupación musical G-One. Conformada por los cantantes y bailarines profesionales José A. Santiago -J. Ane - , Reginald Lebrón Reyson-, Edgardo Cotto -Ezzy Rose - y Jonathan Romero –Neythenex jugador de basketball, cuatro boricuas que le apuntaron al género urbano con un único objetivo: llevar su música a todas partes.

G-one o Ghetto One como también se le conoce, nació en el año 2009, luego de que su propuesta fuera avalada por Daddy Yankee y tras la participación de dos de sus integrantes en el show de realidad “Reggeaton Con Flow” en su natal Puerto Rico, donde lograron despertar gran admiración y afecto entre el público, los medios de comunicación y especialmente en las redes sociales. Actualmente, G-one esta promocionando el tema “No hay”, una mezcla de ritmo y letra que nos invita a bailar, con un sello musical urbano, elocuente, divertido y bastante comercial.

Samiyyah Saafir-Muhammad was born Jacqueline Glover in New York City in 1951. After spending her early years in foster care, moving four times before the age of three, she settled in with her aunt, following her father’s passing.

While still in elementary school Samiyyah took an interest in helping other students do well, joining “The Future Teachers’ Club” in the fifth grade. As a high school student, Samiyyah became aware her people’s struggle for freedom—witnessing civil rights demonstrations, protests, assassinations and riots—and decided she wanted to help somehow.  It was in this atmosphere that she went off to Northeastern University in Boston where she majored in Education. Her stay there was short-lived, however, as she was introduced to the teachings of The Honorable Elijah Muhammad and thereafter joined the Nation of Islam. Within the Nation of Islam’s Muhammad University, Samiyyah underwent educational training and worked as a teacher’s assistant.

Since 2005, Samiyyah has had the privilege of serving as the Directress at Muhammad University of Islam in Atlanta, which serves students from Pre-K to the eighth grade. She has been blessed to carry on the 84-year educational tradition, which was started by the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and his brave followers in the 1930’s.

A widow after 35 years of marriage, Samiyyah presently enjoys the blessing of her and her husband’s nine children: six sons and three daughters, all of whom attended or are attending HBCUs. Samiyyah has been a mother to not only her nine children, but also to her two stepchildren, her nieces and nephews, her eight grandchildren and countless other children and adults in the community who come to her for advice, wisdom and guidance. Affectionately called MamaMiyyah, Samiyyah’s house is never empty.
