Arika has dealt with this disorienting medical obstacle for a few years, but vertigo is no match for her brisk workout program, which includes morning jogs, short sprints and light lifting in the evenings.
This regimen is undertaken by the beautiful songstress three days weekly, and in a recent discussion about fitness, she said excitedly: “exercising insures I’ll be in top physical condition when I’m performing in concerts or doing television shows or just having fun with my friends.”
The sultry singer recently performed to loud cheers on nationally-televised The Monique Show, and her songs, including her hit single “Here With Me,” are heard on VH1’s Single Ladies, Basketball Wives and What Chili Wants, all very popular cable shows.

BLACK WALL STREET
Prior to the massacre of May 31, 1921, when a mob of white men over two days burnt the black district of Greenwood to the ground, it was one of the most Affluent African American districts in the entire United States.Founded on Indian Territory in 1906 by Mr. O.C. Gurley and his family, a wealthy land owner, who purchased 40 acres of land in Tulsa, named it Greenwood after a Mississippi town. Gurley was able to purchase this land through the Dawes Act. A US Law that gave land to individual Native Americans and many Black Sharecroppers looking for better opportunities in a post-Civil War era and from racial oppression.Oklahoma was considered a safe haven and became home to more than 50 black townships in the State.
