New Website

I Always Have A New Something
(watching Real Time With Bill Maher, he's so sexy!)

Hello Beautiful People!

I haven't abandoned you, I'm just going through a selfish time.

I love CUT&SWALLOW, I will always CUT&SWALLOW. But unfortunately, I didn't go to uni and spend £30,000 to learn how to CUT&SWALLOW. So, I have to, because it's a passion of mine, take time to set up my production and film company; WONDERLONDON Films.

It's in its inception (no Leo). The website is bare as fuck. But the bible says that we shouldn't detest the days of simple beginnings. And I won't.


God bless.
See you there!

CUT&SWALLOW IS QUIET!

Empty Barrels Make The Most Noise Sometimes
(Listening to Amy Winehouse, when will she come and quench my thirst?)

Hi guys! I know I'm quiet right now, but that's because there isn't anything to say. CUT&SWALLOW isn't going anywhere, but right now opportunities are opening up in other areas in my life and I must pursue them. There will be another collection before the end of the year, but other than that, let me just say I'm leaving it in God's hands. That is not to forget that faith without works is dead; God aint gonna come and sew my clothes for me. LOL. Get the point? GOOD!

So, if you still want to read blog entries from me, read my other blog WONDERLONDON FILMS, it's a blog all about films, directors, music videos, actors, telly, anything that pleases my eyes. Follow and read the blog by clicking here >>> WONDERLONDON FILMS.

Also, follow me on twitter to be in constant communication with me. Ha! Click here >>> danilorum.

See you guys soon!

God bless.

I Spoke At Tate Modern

A New Chapter
(Listening to Jessie J's Who You Are- Seeing is deceiving, Dreaming is believing.)

Hi Guys! How are you all? Last week I spoke at Tate Modern in London. (I'll update this post with a video soon.) I along with the unstoppable Bangs And A Bun interpreted art installations by Mona Hatoum.

I was so blessed to have such a great opportunity and it was so nice to have all my friends there listening to me speak. What was nicest of all is all my twitter friends who came along especially Ian who came all the way from Northampton. POW! I'm so blessed. Thank you everyone, thank you Jesus.

Enough talking. "Enough talking, what did you wear?"

Dress: CUT&SWALLOW
Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell

I'M SPEAKING AT TATE MODERN

(Listening to Destiny's Child.)

Hello beautiful people! Yes, this is just a quick post inviting you all to come and see me interpret art at Tate Modern this Saturday the 19th March at 1.30pm. Click this here for all the information!

I'm really excited about this all. It's so humbling to see how many people believe in me, especially Boxfresh, who I collaborated on the Mz Bratt collection. Look at the post they did for me on their website. It just makes me feel so good inside:

NOTHING TO SEE HERE!!!


HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
(Head down thumbs up.)

Hi guys! Blessings and love to everyone! I'm busy getting to really know me, the good and the bad bits. I don't wanna be the man in the book of James who looks at himself in the mirror, turns away and immediately forgets his own reflection. So I'm taking time to know myself with the help of God. GREATNESS.

So, there's nothing to see here. I'm under construction. Rebuilding my foundations. But here's the final image from the shoot with the amazingly amazing Zeyna Zy.

Enjoy and I'll see you soon with more fun stuff!!!


God bless,

I'M STILL HERE!!!

Jessie J, Me And Everything In Between
(Feeling on top of the world! YAY)

Hi guys!

I know it's been an absolutely long ass time! But here's a quick update before I run out the door to this party. I'm still here, staying quiet so I can work on this amazingness coming in 2011. Let's be real, 2010 has been hard, but know that next year we're gonna see some honest to God greatness! YAY!

Excitement time. I had the chance to interview Jessie J. I'm in love with the woman. Ever since I saw her sick video:


Then when Will, the editor at SUPERSUPER, called me and was like "You want to interview Miss Jessie J?" I jumped at the chance. The great Loukia Constantinou hooked everything up and I went and interviewed her! What a great woman! Check the interview out in the next issue of SUPERSUPER! Out soon!



PS. I'm making it sound so much more dignified than it was. I called Will and begged him to interview her. LOL. I just love her so much!

And my great friend Zeyna had this stroke of genius and thought it would be a good idea to put me and all the rest of us amazing black girls in front of the camera for once.... O_O LOL It worked out well. This is what they put me in:


And I had the greatest time! I was SMIZING and shit! Tyra would be so proud! Here's Candie and I on the train on the way to Church:


HOOOOORAY! Can't wait to show you the amazingness!

OK Guys! I gotta depart! I'll be back soon. Follow me on Twitter here if you can't bare the wait til the next blog entry!

Hug yourselves and love each other!
GOD BLESS XXX

BOUNTY!!!!

IF YOU'RE IN LONDON, YOU SHOULD BE HERE!!!
(I still hate going out, but it's my big brother's night!!!)

Hi guys! Believe, I once left VIP at a swanky club, where I was entertaining some other league of people and sipping on Belevedere to totter in my 6 inch heels to my big brother Kevin Morosky's night; Bounty. Best decision I made and I'd do it again and again and again. To see all my friends. Dance to sick music. Great feeling. Leave your house tonight and come bump asses with the greatest people in London.

RECLUSIVE TENDENCIES

I DON'T LIKE GOING OUT TO CLUBS
(I'm not a misery guts! I swear! Follow me on twitter @danilorum!)

Hi guys! A friend invited me to the after party of the Capital FM Ball. I got a lil tipsy, got brave and spoke to Tinie Tempah. YAY! I saw Rihanna, she's beautiful. Pixie Lott, Jason Derula and apparently Ke$hA was there, but I didn't see that Dirty Picture... LOL. I'm finding out who I really am and what I like to do and do you know? I don't like going to clubs. I don't. It's boring to me now. I like to stay home and watch free illegal internet television and smoke cigarettes. I'm at my best when I'm working on video stuff, but other than that meh! LOL.

Anyway! This is what I wore out that night to Mahiki; a terrible club. I'm holding a copy of the new issue of the magazine. Wrapping your hair up gets so much respect when you go out. LOL. I don't know, people look at you like you're an empress. YAY! :-)




God bless guys!

RIP STEFAN

Hi guys, I know I've been away for a while, but I'm still here. I'm directing a music video next week and I finished university forever last week. When I'm not feeling semi-suicidal, I'll come back and be my normal bubbly self.

Lots of Love

Before Everyone Starts The Christina Bashing...

Let's Remember Who We're Talking About
(10am, have a beer. Don't stop now, you've already started.)

Hi Guys! I feel it brewing in the air, everyone's gonna start on Christina Aguilera. Her new video Not Myself Tonight feels very much like a mash up of all of Lady Gaga's videos. Surprised that Hype Williams did that to her, but whatevs.


Let's not lie, I like Christina, but that feels like this....


And this...


BUT, we need to remember that Christina Aguilera was one of the first commercial artists who said a loud and resounding NO to formulaic videos in a time when that was all we were getting. Visual reminder? Here we go!


And my favourite....


She did this 7 years ago. In my opinion, Gaga borrowed from Miss Aguilera and now, X-tina, is borrowing from the Lady.

So, before everyone starts crucifying the Genie In A Bottle, I just thought I'd put that into the atmosphere. Commence the warfare in 5, 4, 3, 2...

God bless

THE iPAD...

AN OVERSIZED iPhone THAT CAN'T MAKE CALLS
(Barbecue was greatness....)

Hi Guys! How are you? I was in class the other day and one of our tutors had an iPad. I had to have a go. I was shocked. What in the Steve Jobs hell is this thing? I don't understand. It's an oversized iPhone that can't make calls. Hello?



You wanna write a note on your way to work, where you gonna lean this thing? On your lap? LOL. I'm sorry. It is cool, don't get me wrong, but in my "who-the-hell-are-you" opinion it's just a slab of computer. I think it could really help teachers, people doing presentations and designers who want to use a tablet instead of a sketchbook. It's functionality is the EXACTLY same as an iPhone, you can download apps. I really like The New York Times app (my favourite read), it looks like a newspaper, i thought that was a cool. The one I was playing with had 64GBs of storage space but for what? All the NYT articles you like? The thing is cumbersome. "Excuse me while I get this tombstone out of my bag." LOL. Let's Skype, maybe? Nope, you can make Skype calls, but there's no camera. O_O



I love Apple products and rely heavily on them. I have many of them and use Final Cut Pro to edit all my personal, professional and university projects. iPod? Yes! iPhone? Yes! iPad? Not for me, Mr Jobs. My iPhone, for all its short-comings is enough for me. I could be brought around, but I do not know...

God bless

Gone Too Long; The Truth

M.I.A REMINDS US ABOUT THE TRUTH
(Still in shock from watching the video..)

Hi Guys! How you doing since my last post 6 hours ago? LOL. Well anyway, M.I.A's new video is violent and hard hitting. I know you guys don't care much when I write shit like this, but guess what? It's my blog so shove it. Greatness. Where was I? Well the video, click here, is about government forces who abduct men with ginger, red hair to kill them by making them run a gauntlet of landmines and flying bullets.




In my opinion the video is amazing. It is never nice to see children have their heads blown off or men blown into a thousand pieces but what Sophia (my flatmate) made me realise was that we ALWAYS see some black person get shot, maned or killed in a film in Blood Diamond, or a chinese person stabbed with Samurai sword in Tarantino's Kill Bill but never white people being massacred. It's supposed to be thought provoking. To remind you that there is deeper shit going on than whether or not Lady Gaga is a man or how fake Nicki Minaj's buttocks are.








I guess with all the Beys, GaGas and Nickis we can forget there's some REAL fucked up shit going on. BUT do not misconstrue what I'm saying. I love them all. I love listening to their music and watching their videos. What I'm saying is it is good for everyone to be reminded once in awhile that it's not all Barbie Bitch.

God bless
