"Times are calling for the real, and I'm here to encourage my real ones to keep answering the call."
A simple memo:
Author: LITTLE whiteside
News Reporter, Culture Writer, Content Creator, Radio Personality.
That’s all on paper, but in and on the real I’m:
a daughter: of two fathers, (one heavenly and the other Everett W) as well as a precious gem of a mother Cass W. A sister to many siblings and a Lover of humanity.
Communication is my love language… I LOVE talking, connecting, and unifying it’s what makes this world work (in my opinion).
I’m a feeler for sure… an empath as you fellow millennials like to say. “I see things and I understand”…. not everything but enough to wish to come closer in knowledge; perks of being empathetic.
I am also a companion of Jesus which I save for last because it’s the greatest part of me… it’s through this relationship that I’ve been afforded my on-paper stellar self and am able to balance the in and on real version of myself. It’s the reason that I’m able to not only function in my complexities and dualities but T H R I V E… and although this aspect doesn’t make anything 1 bit easier, it makes it all worth it!!
So, welcome. I hope you find what you need here as I’m journeying and documenting such in love and through love! I hope that if anything , you find a desire to discover your identity and purpose and that you’ll protect that WITH YOUR LIFE!
Oh yes, if you happen to follow me on ANY of my social media but especially Instagram then you know that my account was getting cluttered by my various articles, so I also created this site to be a home for my work. WELCOME HOME GANG!

The art of letting go: Truth is, it gets messy!
Lately, I’ve been feeling like nothing is in my control… Between COVID-19 and changes occurring in my personal life, I feel like my will to accept what is and let go of what isn’t has been tested daily. I can only parallel my personal experiences to what’s been occurring globally. As we continue to live [...]
No place like here, No time like now
Hey Y'all, It's been a little while, well over a year since I've created in this space, and while I'd like to say I feel bad for my long absence… I'm not. I've been figuring myself out in my own way and at my own pace. Which I believe has led me back to this [...]
From Beginning to End— Without Vision, there’s no Manifestation.
IF YOU DON’T READ ANYTHING ELSE IN THIS ARTICLE READ THE FOLLOWING: FOLLOW WHAT MAKES YOUR HEAD SPIN IN WONDER, CLAIM IT AS YOUR PASSION, AND MANIFEST IT LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT….

Alexa Play Tuesday: What’s in your AirPods.
I know it’s been a while since an Alexa Play Tuesday has graced the site, so I figured It was only right that I list out some recent jams that have been feeding me lately. (Yes, you read that f-word correctly, feeding me — mentally as I’m trying to keep myself stimulated and full of [...]
“A powerful learning moment” — Black People are we still Gucci down to the socks?
Before you dive into this article, please allow me to preface my intent. I only wish to impress upon you the importance of considering the power of your dollar and honoring that power by being clear of your dollar’s worth when consuming! It is never my position to judge but always to transparently share. Now, that [...]
Alexa Play Tuesdays — The Heard You SIS edition:
For this week’s “Alexa Play Tuesdays —” I wanted to share some of the tunes that have pushed me through an extremely trying year. As it’s been a huge TRANSITIONAL year full of loss and gains I’ve heavily relied on music to just push me towards progression. With the exception of my beloved Gospel artist, [...]
“MAN NOW”
“I put some ice on my wrist, everywhere I pop out it’s dancing I hit the crowd with some sh*t, soon as I walk out they standin’ I had to be patient for this, I’m the man now, was the man then” -G Herbo. I can’t help but feel differently as I rap these lyrics [...]
It’s Been A Long Time.. I’m Glad I Left You.
"The result is worth the hiatus. A clear mind and pure heart is worth both the work and wait,"
“MOTIV8 Yourself Into A Healthy Mental Space”
"MOTIV8 Yourself Into A Healthy Mental Space" I’m still geeking over the fact that I managed to purchase J. Cole tickets and will be seeing him live in September, hence the title beginning with “Motiv8….” However, this is NOT a post about Jermaine (although, it could easily turn in this direction), this post is about self-preservation in [...]
