WBM Features: Alexis Rajah

The future you see is the future you get.
-Robert G Allen

If you can't invision yourself doing something, what good is having the thought to begin with?

One thing we often sell ourself short on is our ability to dream. Better yet, belief in one's dreams to the point of accomplishment. We get caught up in fear, doubt, criticism from naysayers which most times are those close to us and ultimately lose all sense of what the possibility of what our imagination can take us.

There's much we can accomplish simply by thinking it, believing in those thoughts, and applying effort to make sure that the goal is acheived. Is it ever easy? No. However, how great is any reward given it falls right in our laps? Where then is our ability to work toward something-- disappointment and accomplishment alike, and truly earn it?

One promising young lady from New York, on the other hand has quite the vision of and for herself, and that's to follow her dreams of becoming an actress. Fueled by the inspiration of what she can obtain, motivation from her mother and providing for her son, Alexis Rajah is well on her way.

Here in a Q&A with WBM we had the opportunity to get up close and personal with her.


[As Told To Why Blue Matters]



Who is Alexis Rajah?

Alexis Rajah is an actress/model/poet/rapper/ and mother. A person who cares and loves my family and close friends very much. I'm loud, outgoing, fun, takes challenges, will try (almost) any food once (more if I like it) lol, likes to do fun things, would love to travel and see more of the world.

I wouldn't change a single thing because it may alter the tiniest any happy thing in my life. I'm strong willed, strong minded, and stubborn as a hell. Acting is my passion and life goal. I want it like I want my next breath. I do have other dreams as well. I rap (I kno I don't look like it) but yea I rap lol, model as well and have won a beauty competition and was crown Ms. Bronx. I write poetry plan to make a book of it one day; I LOVE writing! I would love to come out with a series of children's books. I already have begun that. (Storyline and idea wise that is). I would LOVE to have my own clothing line once my name is big (it will reach more ppl ;-) ) I have a whole book of design ideas I made YEARS ago.

I'm learning how to be very independent. (hating it; lol) but I love the feeling of being able to do things for myself as well as for my family and CLOSE friends.

I pride myself on my open mind and blunt opinionated honesty. I rather be told the truth and miserable, than lied to and happy. (Can't remember who said that quote). To me dishonesty is the ugliest trait an individual can have. Ugly comes in all shapes and forms and that right there is at the TOP of my list. I don't think I'm better than any other person in the world, but I guarantee I'm a one of a kind, diamond in the rough type of girl, and you'd have to personally know me to understand that. I know what I want out of life and I'll stop at nothing until I've succeeded. Nothing and NO ONE will stand in the way of my dream. Hate & Doubt is my motivation.


Where are you from?

Alexis Rajah: I'm an all around New Yorker. I have lived and grew up all over. Born
in The Bronx, moved to Brooklyn, Long Island, Brooklyn, Queens, Brooklyn and now back in The Bronx. (In that order LOL) I rep NY, but Bronx and Brooklyn is HOME.

Interest(s)?

Alexis Rajah: OMG, Everything and anything. I crave new things. And old things that I love. My intrest are constantly being sparked. Anything I know most ppl DON'T do I want to do. Like I want to go diamond picking in Arkansas, See if I can stay a night in a certified hunted house, invent something, ride the zip-line over Vegas canyons, weird things like that. My new fave thing mechanical bull riding. LOL


In your opinion, how important is the ability to follow one's dreams?

Alexis Rajah: In my opinion it's a no brainer to follow your dreams. How will you ever know unless you try. I myself truly feel If I don't make it as an actress and have to live a mediocre life; no matter how awesome my husband may be, how great of people my children may become I will never be TRULY happy knowing I didn't give it my all. Who want's to feel like that at the end of a lifetime. There is no going back. Do it and do it NOW!


How long have you been involved in the arts?

Alexis Rajah: I've ALWAYS wanted to act but I started pursuing it on my own when I turned 18. My mother roots for me but told me she wasn't takin me to anymore casting calls since I was such a shy kid when she attempted to start takin me around age 3 or 4. I'm so broken out of that shell. lol


When did you know that this was something that you wanted to pursue?

Alexis Rajah: The 1st time I got on a set for my 1st gig @ 18. it was a commercial that aired on MTV. I was only an extra but I loved it!! The fact that I was up at 4am and didn't get home till around 1am didn't bother me one bit. I was hooked! And saw my leg on TV LOL (Yea I was half cut out).


What inspires and motivates you?

Alexis Rajah: My inspiration comes from myself I'm my biggest push. Every time I see
a film I'm always like. "GOD I HAVE TO DO THIS" it's a mixture of anxiousness and jealousy because I wan't to be there already. My motivation is definitely my son Tilden. I mean I wanted this before but now I have a person to provide for and I want to spoil him rotten and give him everything his heart desires.


Who are some of your influences?

Alexis Rajah: My recent director for the short film I just did (Tru Life Story) Robin S. Williams and Miguel Cumba (Producer) They took me under their wing and continue to guide me. I never had some one aside from myself believe in me so much the way they do. It's such a great feeling it kinda puts the fire under my a$$ that it really is possible. I can do this!


Working on any new projects?

Alexis Rajah: At the moment no. I wish I was that busy with my acting. But a starving artist can live off Ramen noodle. A artist with a child HAS to work. My reality is interfering with my dreams. But I am constantly looking for casting's. I can't wait for my next project to present itself. I also don't want to move backwards I'm building my resume and feel I always want to go bigger!

What are your thoughts on your success?

Alexis Rajah: I'm proud!! I'm doing ok but it can ALWAYS and most definitely get better. I am really proud of Tru Life Story (recent film I did) I am the leading role so I'm really hype about this film and anticipated about this outcome.

Biggest Accomplishment?

Alexis Rajah: Once again Tru Life Story. I have done other films that I lead in but they were independent films as well but they never made it past post production. So I'm really excited to have starred in a film that I can show off. And feel really confidant about the out come. (Will be released in 2011)

Also feeling beautiful in my own skin. I was once verging 200lbs (YUP I SAID IT) and my mother pushed me to enter in Miss NYC Plus Modeling competition for women sizes 12-20. BEST THING EVER. I WON Ms. Bronx (a winner from every borough was selected) but I was proud to be able to not only rep for my birthplace but for the big girls. (YUP I SAID IT) LOL obviously I HAVE lost alot of weight since ;-)


What type of impact would you like to make with your efforts?

Alexis Rajah: I just want people to always follow their dreams and always push forward to accomplish what it is they truly want in life. When I DO become famous I want to be able to help raise money for certain charities. I haven't narrowed down which yet but I will definitely be proactive in ANYTHING I do. I also want to speak to youth groups and help push them to want more out of life even if it's not in the arts.


Who have you worked with so far?

Alexis Rajah: No one major or big named if thats what you mean. I do know a few "Known" people but I'll keep them nameless.


Any anyone you like to work with in the future?

Alexis Rajah: Dan Lin, Angelina Jolie, Michael Bay, Steven King, Kerry Washington, Quentin Tarantino, Tim Burton, Wes Craven, Paul Walker, Leonardo DiCaprio, Clair Danes, Adam Sandler, John Travolta, Anne Hathaway, My fellow Bronx sista J-Lo, Shia LeBouf, Charlize Theron, Meryl Streep, Sandra Bullock, Sigourney Weaver, Julia Roberts, Halle Berry, Nicholas Cage, Orlando Bloom, Ben Affleck, Al Pacino, Robert Deniro, Kate Winslet, and of course many many more LOL


What's next for Alexis Rajah?

Alexis Rajah: FINDING AN AGENT !! So far I have been doing everything on my own and
I know with the right person representing me I can get more casting and more gigs. I should have BEEN had one but I'm shopping around. I brought a New York agent book from Barnes and Nobles. So next HOPEFULLY a lead in a feature and then the silver screen!!


Any advice for those looking to pursue their aspirations?

Alexis Rajah: Yes! Go into this whole heartedly; believe in YOU! You are your 1st fan, your 1st motivation, your 1st agent, your 1st and biggest critic. No matter how hard the struggle may seem you NEED to keep pushing on. You have 1 life you don't want to wonder later on down the line "What If."

You will also run into ALOT of negativity from casting agents, producers, haters (of course) but don't let it get you down. THIS is the hardest business to get into and it's a tank full of sharks so you better learn how to swim or you will NOT make it. You NEED a tough exterior. And you have to passionately LOVE what you wana do be it acting, singing, dancing, rapping etc. It can't jus be "Oh I wana be PAID" cuz if thats it then the next high paying ANYTHING will get your
attention.

REAL lovers of the art will continue to pursue their dreams no matter what.

I've been writing professionally for ten years.

WBM: So explain the concept behind Mischievous Girl Foundation and spread the word on what its all about and how it helps?

DS: Mischievous Girl Foundation is in rebuilding process at the moment, but anyway it started out with me going around speaking to girls inner city girls, group homes, and battered women shelters. Early on it was me all by myself trying to reach out and help so many young girls. It became overwhelming before I could really get anything significant done. Now that I have a team to help me with MGF, we plan to raise money from sales of a specially designed t-shirt, events, and donations. Those funds will go to domestic violence shelters, assisting young women with basic needs like toiletries, shoes, and clothing etc. We would like to take on the task of helping the kids who only get to eat to one meal a day which happens to be their school lunch.

WBM: What would you be doing now, if you never started to write?

DS: I don't even know if I would be alive.

WBM: What are you listening to in your ipod these days?

DS: Every Mary J. Blige album to date because I've loved and adored her since I was twelve.

As far as whats out right now, I love Kanye's new album and Nicki's album. J. Cole is putting on for NC in a big way

WBM: Does any negativity from the media ever affect you in anyway?

DS: I normally will not let it get to me, but when they constantly portray people of color in a negative light, when there are so many positives it upsets me. It also encourages me to seek out my positive stories and feature them on my newly created blog.

WBM: Any advice for those looking to pursue their dreams?

WBM Presents: Mr. Dondada

WBM Presents: Christopher Doctor a.k.a Mr.Dondada

Take a minute and get to know this up and rising star.

With a goal of wanting to have written a No.1 single on Billboard chart by the end of 2011, up and coming arist Mr DonDada is maximizing his winning pontential. Born Christopher Doctor, Mr. Dondada was raised in Columbia,SC. The 23 year old singer/songwriter is moving up at a rapid pace in the music industry.

Here are a few things you should know about Mr. Dondada:

He's done a considerable amount of writing with r&b singer @Torica for placements, as well as writing for others and working on a few personal projects as well.

Has an artist he's working closely with right now her name is Sadie Hawkins you can find her on twitter at @SadieHawkinsSc. Her single ''Vouch For That' 'http://twiturm.com/tugfo is taking over in the south.

Considers himself to be the life of the party, but is also very serious about his talent and career. He stands firm and doesn't get taken advantage of which is necessary if you want to survive in the industry.

Christopher has been writing for about 3yrs now, he recently scored his 1st placement on r&b singer Olivia's 'Show The World' track which is set for a 2011 release.

Also wrote a hot track with Torica called ''These Shoes'' which hopefully will also makes the final cut. He was also given the opportunity to work with Ryan Leslie in the studio.

When Christopher is not doing music he also has a non-profit organization with his bestfriend Ashley Simmons. They've began putting together positive events for the community tackling subjects such as The importance of education & gang violence. They also have the Mayor helping out with the events.

Mr Dondada's ultimate goal in life is to be a dominate force in the music industry and make music that everybody loves. He writes from personal experience and has song concepts in the vault that he may find myself using one day. He is inpired by his surroundings and is excited to be one of the forefronters, bringing attention to the music scene in South Carolina.

Up next for Christopher is completing Torica's Mixtape and working on some stuff for a new artist named Vaughn Anthony (John Legend's brother), Sadie Hawkins & more music with his team Monopoly , YG , Snook Da Rokk Starr , Lele aka badbad , Dj Loui Vee , Mantiz , Stefon & more.

Why Blue Matters.

WBM Album Review: Chrisette Michele "Let Freedom Reign"

Grammy Award winning singer, Chrisette Michele is back with her gutsy "Let Freedom Reign" LP.

Now on her third album, Chrisette stretchs her vocals to take on love, loss and heacier topics and also dabbles a little into rapping.

The albums first single is the edgy "I'm a star". Another notable track is the self empowerment track titled "Number One". She also has a collaboration with Talib Kweli and Black Thought.

But Chrisette Michele reveals vulnerability on "So In Love" her second single featuring Rick Ross. She recaptures her classic, piano-driven sound that drew fans to her 2007 debut with the grand "I Don't Know Why, But I Do," written by John Legend and Jazmine Sullivan.

"Let Freedom Reign" shows an incredible balance in both its content and in the way it contrasts Michele's demure vocals with a bold sound.

Chrisette proves shes here to stay. She will make DEFJAM very happy with this album. I don't think it'll debut at #1 like her last album did, but this album pleases.

A WBM certified album.

WBM Album Review: Jazmine Sullivan "Love Me Back"

"Love Me Back" the new album by Jazmine Sullivan is out now. But I haven't seen any promotion for it, nor have I been able to hear any of the new music being played anywhere either. It was pushed back a few times this year, and the first single "Holding You Down" was a hot song but it didn't get the airplay it needed to gather any attention.

By the time the album was ready to be released "Holding You Down" was far off the radar and the second single "10 Seconds" didn't even make a blimp on the charts.It's one of the better r&b albums I've heard all year but it's safe to say that Jazmine Sullivan has suffered from the "sophomore album jinx".

"Love me back" is a solid effort. With being nominated for seven Grammys and written songs for Jennifer Hudson and Mary J Blige you would think Jazmine has earned some type of respect in the industry.

Jazmine has unique powerful vocals sounding lived-in.Despite her young age, the Philadelphia native’s mature style, voice and writing skills will surely pushed her to explode one day on the charts, but I doubt it will be with this second CD.

If your a true fan of R&B music this album will fulfill your needs but will leave you wanting more.
