Amanda Diva - Manchild (Music Video)

Amanda Diva is one talented lady, but I had no idea, aside from a guest spot with 'The Kid Daytona, that she had such a soulful way about her. Regardless, I was driven to post this up simply because the story being depicted in the video is something all of my peers can relate to. During this period of pre-adulthood/post-adolescence, most of us are trying desperately to find our way in a world where there aren't lines drawn to direct us after a while. Some are good at finding their own path and becoming successful, while others languish for what seems like an eternity. The result is this constant tension, this battle, not only of the sexes, but of the ages. We're constantly told to 'grow up', sometimes with no good examples of what a grownup is, hence the term 'Manchild'. Amanda Diva's Ski Beatz-produced ballad about a guy who is physically a man, but mentally a child resonates for both sexes. It's also a welcome reminder of what life holds with no aspirations. Shouts to TSS for the heads up, and I'll definitely be looking for Amanda Diva's LP, 'Technicolor Lover'...
