In Music
Musician Lynxxx, this week, took to Instagram to share the encounter he had with God and to clear the air on why he now loves God this much now. He also released an amazing song to push his thoughts home. He titled it; Serve You! Check it out afterwards! 
Meanwhile this is what he had to say about his encounter with God and the reports that a near death experience wasn’t what actually informed his decision to ply this route. He wrote:
“I come across people every day that have some many questions, remarks and comments about my New Life and Journey of Purpose and i love to hear and see people’s reactions, opinions and the likes about making a change to live a better / more fulfilling life (in Christ)… I can’t count how many people have said “u must have had a near death experience” lol errrr Nah! I was actually sitting on my couch perfectly fine when i had an encounter with God and he revealed what my TRUE purpose of existing is and i am sharing that with you all daily! Light extinguishes darkness, so once i saw the light … It was a no brainer to say good bye to my old life and old ways…. How far does “being ur own lord and master get u?” I’ll let u tell it’. There’s greatness in EVERYONE, u just have to sometimes Dig into ur soul and the word of God to find yourself! He has the key to ur destiny in his palm and no matter how u “Search” here “in the world”, u wld NEVER find it unless u go to HIM! (It’s a decision ull never regret) When you encounter God, u receive power , peace that no man can ever take from u but ultimately u come alive in truth and in spirit… No amount of success, money or fame could ever give me that. Get Plugged in and Come Alive! “

In Events
President Obama played host to Singapore’s Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and his wife, Ho Ching at the 12th state dinner Tuesday night in Washington. The black-tie affair – called by the White House a ‘celebration of summer bounty’ – marked the 50th anniversary of bilateral relations between the U.S. and the city-state, which Obama referred to as an anchor for the U.S. presence in Southeast Asia.
That said, I just couldn’t take my eyes off the simple modish way Michelle Obama slayed at the event with her stunning white dress. Take a look:
In Business
This week also, Instagram launched a new feature called ‘Instagram Stories’ that gives users the ability to collate photos and videos into a ‘story’ to disappear after 24 hours and allows one to share and hide from whoever they will.
Snapchat has exactly the same feature called ‘Snapchat Stories’. Now, this is kind of interesting because of the hullabaloo this already brought all over the social media. Peopled wondered if Mack Zuckerberg had bought over Snapchat already as it is in the young tech’s guru to do so these days. But I will leave you to figure the rest out.
Question is, how does Snapchat CEO Evan Thomas Spiegel, feel about this development and where does it leave Snapchat in years to come? Are going to be sticking with the hashtag (#RIPSnap) or would it be the other way round? Your guess is as 
good as mine! Reports say Spiegel is already considering pressing charges for copyright infringement, but I’d just say, things just got more interesting now. Copycat or no copycat, Instagram doesn’t seem to care any less. My fellow iOS and Android users, which way now? Now this isn’t about who invented what, this is about which platform offers the best tools to make life easier for you and I in this highly industrialised economy, if you ask me, I would say, that’s the platform upon which loyalty is ascertained in this age. But these are my thoughts; I can’t wait to hear what the rest of you feel about this development, different or indifferent? Please we would love to hear your take.
