FROM BABY CHATTA TO CHATTA
* Once known as “Baby Chatta” and later sprouting to a vocally stronger and wiser Chatta, Chatta has entered her musical realm since the age of fourteen. The name Chatta has derived partially from the name CHAT, as a result of her up-tempo lyrical tongue, therefore being referred as The Speed of Consciousness. Such style was influenced by her elder brother Mark, followed by Lieutenant Stitchie, Capleton, and Beenie Man. Chatta is born of a Jamaican milieu consisting of the St. Andrew and Westmoreland district. Chatta’s ultimate goal is to distribute her product and message on a level whereby the female body is not negatively portrayed and lyrical vulgarity is excluded. For such theme need not be a basis for the appreciation, development, and triumph of her composition, as she reveals; “Repudiate from Selling Your Body, Exhibit your Mind and Ingenuity”.

There is no end to the different ways that people look at life. People view existence in this world through very different sets of eyes. Even when people look at the same circumstances and situations, different people have totally different views. Let me use two examples as illustrations.
To some people, life stinks. No matter what the circumstances are or the situation is, they always see the stinky things. Trouble chases them like a vicious dog. Problems cling to them like ticks. Tragedy rains on them like hail stones. When something good happens, they cannot enjoy it. They spend their time wondering when the bad will come. If they win a million dollars, the taxes are horrible. When someone is kind to them, they wonder, "What is that person trying to do to me?" To them, life is horrible, so they look for the bad in every situation.
To some people, life is wonderful. Everything is wonderful! If trouble chases someone like an angry dog, that person irritated the dog. If problems cling to someone like ticks, that person walked among the ticks. If tragedy falls on someone like hail stones, that person chases tornadoes. Life is naturally good! Bad things do not happen unless you invite them into your life. They never look at life and see anything bad.
People desire many things, but it is the individual's duty and responsbilty to desire the proper things.
A noble failure may be of more value than a petty success.
Anyone who makes the wrong choices will be a burden, not only to themselves but to future generations.
though life is often short, one should live and act in such a way that their achievements will bring them and their country a good name forever. If they do not use their training for worthy ends, they will be an enemy to themselves and an obstacle to others. they will, indeed, be sick while supposedly heathy and dead while still alive.
The obligation to improve oneself does not cease simply because one has a regular job.
Simply watching other peoples achievements is a characteristic of the lazy person.
There is no person in this world who is free from lifes responsibilty.
If the wealth of a person cannot be for the general welfare, what would they gain for themself and their offspring but grudge and hatered?
A qualified person with vision, unmoved by daily selfish interests, will be led to moral decisions by their conscience......
Greatings Sistren! I&I just stop by fi drop some Blessins. I see di I pon Reggae Bash again dis year, I&I will meet deh again dis summer. Till deh,stay Bless! One perfect Love!
