"Hollywood Walk of Fame: Where's the Soul in Your Stars?

P. Diddy's got his place, but Teena Marie's space remains blank. The 'Ivory Queen of Soul' outsang, outperformed, and out-innovated many. She didn't just cross color lines; she erased them with her voice.From 'Fire and Desire' to 'Lovergirl,' Teena's music still echoes in studios and streets alike. Her Brockert Initiative changed the game for all artists.So, Walk of Fame committee, we're calling you out. Your criteria? Check. Her impact? Massive. Her legacy? Unmatched.It's not just about a star anymore. It's about recognizing a pioneer who shaped the soul of American music. Teena Marie deserves her place in Hollywood history.Don't let another day pass without honoring the Queen. #TeenaMarieStarNow"

Diddy's star remains intact because the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce claims they lack the authority to remove stars. This tolerance contrasts sharply with the lack of recognition for artists like Teena Marie, who broke racial barriers and contributed significantly to music but remain unacknowledged by such honors. The responsibility may lie with the Los Angeles City Council, which owns the sidewalks where the stars are embedded, but no process has been established. This highlights a systemic issue where fame often outweighs ethical considerations in Hollywood's recognition practices.

God Closes The Door On You

During His earthly ministry, Jesus told His disciples that He would send the Holy Spirit when He got back to heaven, and the Holy Spirit would guide them. The Holy Spirit constantly instructs us and urges us to do the right thing. The sinful flesh is attempting to pull us in the direction of trusting our own will, but we have to follow God’s will, not our own. It can be hard when God closes the door on something we want. In our minds, our will sound perfect or seem like everything we’ve ever wanted. We have to remember that just because we want something doesn’t mean we need it. God knows our heart’s desires and what we want. He gives us what we need, and these gifts give our souls the ultimate satisfaction. There will be hard times in our lives, but God is with us through the highs and lows. If God closes the door on you, don’t be discouraged but take His no as a redirection to something bigger.
