    There has clearly been a lot of dopeness that has been taking place in the world of music lately and another discovery has been made with special thanks to Facebook.  While doing the usual scrolling, I came across this page called DanceFloor and on it, I saw the most beautiful thing ever… a dance tribute to the late Michael Jackson by Tobias Ellehammer.Tobias Ellehammer, a young dancer/ choreographer from Copenhagen, Denmark, first burst onto the dancing scene when his dance video to Janet Jackson’s song “BurnItUp” went viral on YouTube. Now Ellehammer is taking the world by storm with his dance tributes and fantastic moves.In the dance tribute video, Ellehammer recreated the classic Michael Jackson hit song, “Black and White” with the same message as the King of Pop but with a twist. As we all know, Jackson’s “Black or White” song and the video speaks about equality for all, so Ellehammer decided to honor his message and Jackson with a dance routine that captivates the message in the song perfectly.Tobias Ellehammer took his talents to blend with other dancers from other countries to make an unforgettable statement that is heavily needed within today’s society. See for yourself how amazing this routine is. The King of Pop would be proud.Tobias Ellehammer: Black or White

    There’s a sense of joy of being able to discover new things when it comes to music and everything that falls under that umbrella. A few weeks ago, a new discovery came to me at an all women showcase and her name is Mercy. For many of you who don’t know who Mercy is, Mercy is a phenomenal dancer who uses different styles of dance to express herself and share her story with others. Mercy has been dancing for years but after an unforseen incident that took place in her life, the dancer decided to channel that into her art. In 2015, Mercy fell victim to domestic violence where she suffered from a concussion given to her by her partner/dance instructor during a physical altercation. Although was she beaten, she was not broken. Mercy decided to turn her tradegy into triumph as she became a voice for other women who are victims of domestic violence. Mercy is now a woman’s advocate for domestic violence and she also created two very important parts of her company that other women can benefit from.The first part is a One Woman Show entitled The Rebirth of  Mercy, where she displays her creativity as a freestyle dancer and transforms it into an art form. The second part The Rebirth of A Woman, is a monthly women empowerment circle that focuses on topics that will help women discover a better version of themselves as well as helping them stay true to themselves. Mercy has also launched a bi- weekly women empowerment summer intensive segment on WMVR Radio, also entitled The Rebirth of A Woman. The first segment took place on May 10th,2017. When Mercy isn’t performing, she is visiting different schools within the Bronx area, speaking to the kids about ways that they can overcome their obstacles within the arts. Mercy as a dancer, performer, and a woman is an inspiration to many girls and women. She is making her mark in a male-dominated world of dance and is using her trials and tribulations as way to rise above everything she has endured in her life. Check out Mercy and her artistry right here.
