Welcome back to my new exciting chapter of music life

Hello my warriors!
I am so grateful for your support and connection during this mist of emotions, confusion and hurting times. I am delighted to continue spreading my music and good art to the masses and illuminate the world with this little light of mine. I've been in the process of mourning my beloved mom who will be here in my heart forever. At the same time I am preparing to release my lates single MI FORTALEZA-GOD IS MY STRENGTH official video by telling you little by little all the process I have to go through to finally giving birth to this artistic baby. I will continue being who I am by telling my story and my rights to express myself as a Woman, Artist and dignifying Human being. We cannot and should not let the evil to conquer what belongs to us and that is the right to live with joy, pride and peace by doing what we love to do and serving others. You can check (expired link) while we are getting ready for the official video release.
God Bless you and I wish you peace to all of you

WHAT AM I FEELING AT THIS TIME? THIS IS MY CORONA VIRUS EXPERIENCE
I don’t know how to express my current feelings. They have been a mix of anxiety, frustration, anger, and fear. I will start by saying that I am battling Coronavirus myself. How did I get it? well, besides being a full-time artist I am also a dedicated and caring healthcare provider. I work as a physical therapist assistant in the community of Harlem in New York City. Since the pandemic started, I was very alert to the different manifestations of this disease in other countries and places throughout TV News and social media. When we finally had to confront this invisible enemy at work I knew we were not ready. However, my co-workers refused my inquiries stating we were much prepared in comparison with other hospitals, yet with time they would give me the reason due to the fact that we had an extraordinary spread of the corona virus rapidly in our site of work. I recognized I was very anxious and almost terrorized. We did not have the proper supplies, precautions and training to take care of our already sick patients. We, the employees in our department did not have the acknowledgement in how to reduce our own stress, anxiety and fears. We were only required to show up on time to do our job. Coming to work became an slavering and intimidating task for me to do everyday. Taking the subway filled with people that could be contaminated along with the majority of homeless and mental sick individuals who contributed to my everyday ride made a very difficult and a disgusting situation to endure. I knew I was alone. My co-workers and I did not have any orientation to confront COVID 19. No meetings, no suggestions, no advise was provided to us before this pandemic started soaring with death in our hospital. I had to find answers on my own, including how to properly use a PPE so I would not get infected. We were asked to use the same mask for 5 days plus and then secure it in a brown bag because there was not more supplies available for us to treat COVID patients, and seeing the boss acting normal like any other day, with no words of empathy made me feel mad. After 3 plus weeks a meeting was held to ask us if we had any concerns or questions.. I thought it was too late to ask. Nothing new was added to the burden of fear and uncertainty I already had and as much protection and safety I performed, I still got infected. Due to the lack of supplies we were supposed not to see the critically ill patients, only the suspicious ones, still I could get infected by any of them or maybe from any of my asymptomatic co-workers who could be carriers. Passing by some isolated COVID-19 patients’ rooms with no respirators, submitted in loneliness and surrounded by the silent death made me feel depressed. One Saturday, at home, I started sneezing like crazy, with itchy eyes and stuffing nose. I thought it was a common cold. However, followed those symptoms I had excruciating headaches that I thought I was having a stroke followed by fever of 100 plus. My body ached all over so my concern was to reduce the fever. I tried everything and any home remedy I could find, teas, soups, OTC drugs, followed by fresh showers including exercise. These trials helped me for some hours but they will come again and I would repeat the same method again and again. The headaches lasted for 3-4 days. The fever will come and goes every other day. I lost the sense of smell and taste. The water tastes bitter to me and I also lost my appetite. On top of this, my anxiety and fear was even more intense by not knowing the results of the test which I already have done since I started with these symptoms. As you could see, it has not been an easy time for for me with the corona virus. I only pray and give thanks to my God that I was fighting and winning this war with my faith in Him. Everyday I pray for my co- workers and friends who are in front of the line of fire such as the nurses, respiratory therapists, and physical therapists by helping our sick people in our community risking their lives with little supplies provided to combat this pandemic. It’s already six days, and I’m still waiting for the results to know if im positive or negative. I don’t’ know why we don have faster test methods specially for the healthcare providers who need to know how are their health state in order to continue providing service to our people in the community. In the meantime, I’m isolated myself at home as much as I can so my daughters and husband don’t get infected. I try to put a “good” face in the mist of these circumstances so they don’t get worry about it, but I’m still filled with uncertainty not knowing the results about being positive or negative in reference to this invisible enemy. Last night, I felt my Lord Jesus answered me, and I know he healed me. This I believe in faith. I know He cannot let me down. He knows what is truly in my hearth and that is to give love through music, arts, motivation. We all are called to make changes, positive changes in our lives for his glory. I will continue searching to find the True in Him. In the meantime, I will continue waiting for those results praying my coworkers and friends are safe every time they have to leave home to serve our people. In these precise moments I know that nothing is going to be the same after the corona virus epidemic passes. For this, we must be ready for what it is yet to come. Thanks my warriors for your time.

Greetings my warrios/Saludos mis guerreros
Thanks to much for your loyalty and support throughout my musical road to express my art and feeling with this my passion which is music. It has been long time I have not had the chance to get you heads up about my endeavors, however, I promise you I will continue to connect with you as much as I can. At this moment, I've been working on some marketing and at the same time preparing for my next project coming out soon to celebrate women. I very blessed having you in my artistic life and I hope to continue getting your feedback and support in this new season.
May God bless you and don't forget to follow me @CHAEONFIRE on all social media.
My love to you always,
CHAE

Hello my warriors/Hola mis guerreros. I thank you for your loyalty and support during the time we have not connected. I continue creating and rising during these times of war by making more music with the passion and joy within my heart. This time I invite you to join me at the premiere of "Vengo" live video as a debut of my new upcoming Album called "Color de Mujer" This new album talks about the passion, the love, and struggles of AfroLatinas from my country based on my mother's life which was inspired during the time I was visiting her this past July. "Vengo" is one of those new songs which talks about the land where I'm coming from and that is Colombia, A land where my parents gave me birth, and in which we learned to survive the cruel discrimination, racism, and social inequality living in the jungle of Tutunendo, Choco for a long time while we looked for better options of life in the other jungle of concrete: the city. The album "Color de Mujer' expresses a more sentimental, passional, vibrant and courageous way to say I am a WOMAN, an AfroLatina woman with my own needs and voice in this society, to advocate for those Afro-Colombian women in leadership who lost their lives defending their communities and the government has not made justice for their lives. I wish you Merry Christmas and a blessed, prosperous and Happy New Year

Hello my warriors/ Hola mis guerreros. Greetings to all of you, I hope the light of our Almighty creator continues shining over you to make your dreams come true. I started my greeting today with a link of the recent video of my song 'COLOMBIANOS', which you guys have supported prior. I'm content that this material is finally out to spread the message of the invisible people of my country Colombia, the Afro-Colombians. I did not have so much of a budget to expend in a super production but I have been blessed surrounding myself with people who really believe in my work and art. I take pride in the way we did this video because I wanted to express the feeling and essence of my people through color, sound, art, and lyrics to deliver the message. In Colombia, South America we have different types of people, White, mestizos, mulatos, indigenous and Blacks. However, the predominance to believe that Colombia is only White is wrong. There are around 6 million Blacks born and raised in our country who are subjected to social inequality, racial discrimination, and injustice. Afro-Colombians are denied to the most basic elements of living, such as the dignity to be who they are without being looked at as an isolated and suspicious individual in Colombian society. But, nobody wants to speak about the topic. For the
Colombians to speak about racism or social inequality towards the Blacks and indigenous people is a Tabu. Nobody wants to be bothered, in the meantime, our youth are consuming themselves in drugs, prostitution or enlisting themselves in gangs or guerrillas to survive their cruel reality. Their hope to get out of that system is rough or sometimes null. I'm just a messenger in the midst of odds to bring light and awareness of the existence of the Afro-Colombians and their historical contribution to the Colombian society. I express my feelings through music and use this blessed talent as a resource for healing, strength, resiliency and an opportunity to show the other hard and sad face of a suffered and struggled Colombia and that is the Black people. Thanks so much for listening to me. Until next time.

Peace to all of you,
Chae.

Hello my warriors! Hola mis guerreros. I'm sharing with you an Acoustic Event Invite on Facebook Live at CHAE on Fire page from 8-10pm to hear me talking about AfroColombians and our struggles to survive discrimination and social inequality in my country of Colombia, South America from my standpoint. This cultural event is sponsored by the Mayor's Office of Immigrant Affairs in NYC in association with the #Nycmulticulturalfest to celebrate the Immigrant Heritage Week. I will share with you my own experiences and the story behind my songs to bring awareness of the other side of Colombia that you may not know and that is the Black invisible people. Hope to see you there.
Peace to all of you my friends and thanks for the support
