The African American Heritage Festival aka AFRAM (it'll always be AFRAM, they need to give it up!!!) was a bit of a disappointment. Can you believe that there were no vendors?!? Ok, well I might by hypin' it but there were literally like 3 of them selling the same things (you know..cheap t-shirts, etc.) However, I gotta shout out to the dudes selling the African jewelry from New York for hooking me up!

On a better note, the food was on point..tell me where else can you get 3 pieces of fish, 4 chicken wings, and fries for $8! No where!
Ok now to the artists... Hands down FANTASIA held it down. I am not a huge fan but I gotta give it to her she put on a show. You know somebody put on a show when they kick their shoes off and go through three towels. Bmore's own, Mario, did his thing too but sorry Mario, Tasia got you beat boo.
(Maybelline workin' their magic...)
And to top it off... Maybelline New York represented with their The Great Beauty Tour. There was a fabulous makeup artist who gave great make-up tips. FAB! tip: Don't limit your blush to cheeks only. Try dusting just below the eyebrow area with a little brush. It picks your face right up!!! Hopefully next year there will be more to highlight but unfortunately the only thing poppin' this year was the lipgloss after the makeovers.
Hopefully AFRAM will spice it up for next year...
