JAIL TAILS BBCTHREE (MAVERICK SABRE)

Here at B Somebody we are all about positivity! And today i managed to take the time to check out BBCTHREE’s site, to see how Jamal of SBTV was doing in his new found career on the show Jail Tail’s.

I was impressed to see how the show was working. Targeting and promoting on a large scale audience to live a safe and better life, not ending up or going back to jail. Working with UK artists who many watch every day like ourselves, share their lyricism to get the message across.

The show is becoming more in depth after grabbing everyone’s attention with the likes of Lioness, Ghetts, Bashy, Fem Fel & Duurty Goodz Jail Tail freestyles. Turning into a series of short films.

I managed to watch the latest one with Actor/MC Ashley Walters AKA ‘Asher D’. An inspiring interview to his thoughts, motivation, support & advice.

Ashley goes back to Feltham prison with SBTV to talk about his time once there. One thing is it never stopped him as a person pursuing his dreams, to change his lifestyle and to work hard to get to the position he is today. Ashley is a great example for many people out there not to re-offend or more importantly no to commit an offence in the first place, but to take the opportunity to have your freedom and make something of your life. 

Another interview i got to watch was about the Firefighters Boxing club. Jail Tails, looking further than just a sport, learnt & exposed that Boxing teaches you; Discipline Respect and courage. This is something the club focuses on, that has caught on in the local area. Many of the youths exposed to crime go there, to get away from the temptation and to release their stress. Amir Khan who appears in this sketch, is a good example of someone that this has rubbed off on.

On browsing the website there are also many of what SBTV does best, Freestyles. But these freestyles have strong messages behind them so make sure you listen as well as ‘watch’, and share these videos around to spread a positive message.

All in all i must congratulate Jail Tails for recognising a bad situation and doing something to make it better. Keep up the great work.

The Video above is inspired by Jail Tails and is called ‘Behind These Walls’ from Urban Indie artist Maverick Sabre. I’m a big fan of his Music, so unique and talented. This really took my breath away.

Jail Tales Lioness By SBTV

”Them prisons are no Joke Visions of No Hope
You Wont Cope if you Let that Cloud You
But stay focussed and you’ll be proud to..
say that you’ve come out a changed man
but you Dont wanna change man
coz your going back in for the same thing
I don’t understand why you move with the same plan”

Lioness spits some real talk in this clip for BBC Three’s upcoming multiplatform project Jail Tales, filmed edited and produced by the camera king everybody knows as SBTV.

This project is gonna be a real eye opener about the harsh realities of jail time and how it affects the people involved, so I’m really looking forward to hearing the rest of the freestyles as well as peeping the short films!

Gotta big up SB for showing what hard work and dedication can lead to. Going from youtube to the BBC in two years is more like a ‘Fairy Tale’ but his rise to the forefront of our urban scene today has taken place in front of everyones eyes and no one can say he doesn’t deserve to be where he is.
