Soul Train Nominations




      I have been slacking on my writing about Macky's recently, all of my blogs are drafts but I digress and am going to write this blog today. So Macky's is nominatinated for a Soul Train Award. And all I know is that Mack is never not working. Whether it is his acting or his music, he always busy doing something. I definitely see Mack is staying busy doing almost everything. Come to find out, he is nominated for a Certified Award because they are really know that Macky is known for his greatness. Not only with his acting but also his exceptional music.

The category that he is in is only for entertainers who has experienced a lot of longevity in their careers. I am very much a fan of all of the entertains nominationed however my heart belongs to Mack Wilds. Over 4 years ago, I saw a very handsome young actor by the name of Tristan Wilds who put his all into his role on "The Wire" as a young man named "Michael Lee". Once I saw this particular show, I knew then that he had my heart. And I begin to follow his career. After " The Wire" he continued acting, sharpening his skills to continue to become one of the greatest of his time. 

     Then in August 2013 he debuted his first album "New York A Love Story" which was #GrammyNominated.  It was a very good album. Well to me, I think anyway. And because it was nominated for a Grammy, someone else does as well. He had a great album, to me. More than a few love songs and only a few which he rapped on. But the entire album in which I still listen to the entire album a lot is one of my favorite albums. He does have quite a few great songs that are my favorites. It took him quite a few years later to bring a brand new album to his fans. April 7th, of this year Mack brought his new album to his legion of fans. I started out just being a fan of his acting who became a fan of his musical talents so of course I am here for Mack Wilds new music. Btw, for his music venture he changed his name from Tristan to Mack which is his middle name. His musical fans were blessed with his new music


I feel a closeness to Mack so I call him "Macky" a lot. Funny that I feel that way although I have only met him once. Twitter does that for some people, I have been here for a number of years but have only seen him once. Well when he was in my own city, I had a chance to visit the event he hosted with Angela Simmons. I was able to get a picture of myself with him. After being a fan of his for so many years, I was able to get close to him, well close enough for a picture at least. Macky is going on a well needed tour with this album soon and let's just say that I will be there with my camera in my hand to record. So that I can, capture his greatness on stage.
