The Apple Martini's Rule

Here's a Rule: Never drink martinis all night long!

I had the greatest night ever last night! Me and vocalist, Brittany Starr James (http://www.myspace.com/brittanystarrjames), hopped from one venue to another. First, we hit up JAZID where I performed and then headed over to The Florida Room to check out comedian Rocco where I ended up performing with the wonderful, Big Brookyln Red. From there I went on to LoveHate to show my love and support to Rahsaan (emcee- http://www.myspace.com/rahsaan1) and Mark Gordon- promoters of the venue that night. While in the mist of all this, I was sippin on Apple Martinis at each venue-the Florida Room made it the best! I am not much of a alcohol drinker these days though so I try to sip on wine whenever I need a buzz but still, I was feeling this apple martini hard! I was feeling it so hard that I almost sponsored it as my new drink for my nights out on the scene. But after sleeping until 4pm this afternoon and still waking up with a hangover- I think NOT! Rule for you reading this blog entry- unless you can hang- NEVER drink martinis all night long. I think one is enough! Yes, I must admit it gave me the best feeling ever while sipping on it. And yes, I am happy that it didn't cause me to pass out or broadcast things to the world that I shouldn't say. Waking up with a massive headache at 4 pm the next day, later than I usually would, is more than enough reason for me to say "Goodbye Apple Martinis!"

Rimidi VS my Vocal Chords!!


After singing my life away, I now have no voice. Now ain't that a -beep-!A friend of mine, vocalist-Michelle Forman, told me to try Throat Coat tea. This tea is supposed to be really good at soathing your vocal chords and getting your voice back. Well...I really hope it works because this is the worst. I have a performance coming up this Wednesday @ JAZID so I really need to be ready so let's keep our fingers crossed. Ill def keep you guys posted on the outcome of this new found remedy. By the way, if you're looking for something to do this Wednesday, March 18th- come out to JAZID and watch a great show! I will be featured along with many other HOT vocalists doing a special tribute to some of the BEST SOUL artists from back in the day. Please come out if you can. And pray that I make it to GNC to grab me some THROAT COAT tea bc I need it! Hey...??? ...maybe I should have them pay me some mula for giving them such promotion! J/k...or am I? Seriously though...hopefully this will be a new found "remedy" for the RIMIDI...lol Here's to Throat Coat tea....

On the go...

So right now I am trying to relax because I have definetly been on the go this month. I just did a show last night at Jazid and one the night before at Vagabond-which is a VERY hot spot by the way- and I am EXHAUSTED! But all in the same breathe, I love it! After I take this nap (although I know that's not really going to happen) I will be heading out to the Innerlook to perform. This is a spot that I just recently heard about but, nevertheless, I was invited to come out and do my thing tonight so I'm looking forward to it. Tonight is just a short acoustic set of one or two songs. After a job well done...here's to my feature. I'll keep you guys posted on the show since I know that you won't get this blog in time since I just created the site altogether.

Look out for my video posting from last night's show. I should have it up by the end of the weekend. :)

Peace and Blessings...

Who is Rimidi?


Simply put: "There's is no Rimidi without music or music without Rimidi". Born and raised in Miami, Florida, aspiring singer/songwriter/vocal arranger Rimidi is indeed a long awaited remedy for the music industry. She has known since she could hum along to the sound of a melody that music has been her destined passion. After realizing that music was what she wanted to do, her mother placed her into her church choir. Unfulfilled by the quality of her church choir, Rimidi seeked for other routes which lead her to auditioning for Dr. Michael M. Krop High School's STAR ACADEMY performing arts program in Miami, FL. Rimidi was accepted into the school and that was then we she as an artist and songwriter began to procreate. She formed a girl singing group that consisted of 5 members and wrote all of their songs. She used this time to experiment on writing and creating harmonies and melodies. After schedules began to conflict and less commitment arose, Rimidi decided to seek her own route as a solo artist. She then attended Florida A&M University in Tallahassee, FL as a music major but spent most of her time there seeking musical guidance and experimentation. With a mother who insisted that she took the other route away from the musical road, Rimidi consistently battled herself as the average Jane and became known as the rebel when she dropped out of college to follow her passion full time. Rimidi began working with local artists, writers and poets to help form her craft into what it is today. As a member of the M.O.S.T, a writer's camp directed and created by Grammy Award singer, Betty Wright, she is still learning how to recreate herself in all aspects of music. Currrently Rimidi is putting together a demo album to promote herself as an artist as well as a songwriter. In addition to building her network with other local artist and industry connects, Rimidi's primary goal is to become a songwriter for various artist and be known and admired for her work throughout the country, no matter the genre. Inventing and reinventing music that is a liking to the all if the ears listening and performing it, is her the dream that she is bringing to life. Recently, Rimidi has performed at many local venues in the Miami area including JAZID, Mahogany Grille, The Innerlook, The Literary Poetry and Lounge, etc. and is currently looking to expand throughout South Florida at other venues to spread recognition of her name and talent. Music is Life. Life can't get any better than this with Rimidi bringing the music. Stay tuned, for there is more to come..... The key is to look outside the box and never be scared to do you. Don't allow yourself to be programmed bc they say this is the way it supposed to be. There is no manual script, life is unpredictable and only God has control so just ask and have faith that he will come through. Use that in every aspect of your life...especially w music..
