All Talk

One of my favorite tracks by KiD CuDi, the emotional honesty on this song really hits my heart, and I feel like he understands me and probably a lot of other people.

Just Blaze Explains What Happened To The Remix



Wow, now I understand if looked at from a broader view, how the music buisness is artistically lacking cause buisness is slow but I still hate to hear that it affects the culture of rap and hip-hop in such a negative way including destroying the culture from the inside esp. because people want more plays on the radio to bump up VDS scores. All numbers now. I mean really the best remix I've heard in the 2000's is Fabo's (Fabolous) and Drake's "Throw It In Bag (Remix)" which I personally found it was 10 times better than the regular song with The-Dream. I really think someone should just seriously sit down with Just Blaze for a couple of hours and just interview him cause he always has something interestng to say.

Flashback Post | Marsha Ambrosius' Say Yes (Live)



This is definitely on of my favorite songs, but the way she sings this is so soulful. One thing I noticed is she did sound ALOT like Jill Scott. I have to say though I am impressed by the way she squeezes the emotion into the song without over doing it unlike Alicia Keys sometimes, or how Ashanti did the song 'The Way That I Love You'. Marsha Ambrosius used to be apart of the now broken up duo, Floetry. And is now working on her solo album due for release sometime at the end of this year.

Summer Nights

Photobucket

Ight so like the past couple of nights I kept telling myself I should make a new post and finally I have decided to make one tonight. Since it's been like a week and a half I don't think I review much of last week, probably friday to today.

Ok so on friday I didn't feel like hanging out with Addison and didn't feel like getting to know any one so I decided I should go to a movie with old friends which was mad fun. I went to see Death at a Funeral at 34th street with Thomas, Liam, Kameron, Dav (David), Leon (who I really am mad at for destroying my facebook lmao), and Atlas called me cause he heard we were going but, I forgot to call him back about that (sorry). That was one of the funniest movies I have seen in a long time, I don't think I've laughed that hard since the summer of 08. That movie was hilarious, after the movies we all headed back to Thomas' house in the Penthouse of Irving Place which is like DUMB nice and relaxing. Like whenever I'm up at his house there is a whole view of Manhattan, I'll take pictures next time I go but, I love that house so much. Then everyone left one by one, and Thomas tried to make me sleep over but, I was really tired and didn't feel like being a buzzkill by falling alseep early, and by that time it was like 11:20 pm so it was either I go home or get jacked on the train for taking it to late. So I left and as soon as I hit my bed I was GONE. Like I fell asleep in my clothes that's how tired I was.

So next morning Cassidy (my cuzzo) wakes me up for fencing at 6:00 am and I just immediatley fall right back to sleep for another hour then I finally take a nice ass shower which felt really relaxing. And I felt at ease until I hear my mom's voice yelling at me telling to get out the shower. Which pretty much made my relax meter go from 94% to 21%. I have no idea but like I noticed, whenever my mom is in my sight I feel like a 75 pound weight of stress is added to all the stress that I already deal with, mad annoying. Anyways we leave, and get there on time surprisingly cause the trains are ridcuoulously messed up on weekends. But, after the fencing class, I talk to one of my friends' dad and he knows that I'm a music person so he talks to me about that, then tells me the Vice President of Sony Entertainment's son goes to the fencing class that I go to, and his son is absoutely a beast at fencing for a 7-year old. So, I was surprised and we prepared a little speech for this weekend when I see The VP again about an intership this summer. After waiting for my cuzzo and my sister to be done with their private lesson I took them home then they went to a party and I stayed home cause I felt so tired again and watched Sherlock Holmes on MOD and fell asleep until like 8pm and still no one was home so I enjoyed the peace and fell asleep again until the morning (I felt reallty tired this weekend IDK why though).

In the morning (Sunday), woke up, went to Church with my mom, saw my other cousins, got a Ice Tea at Dunkin' Donuts, in the car contemplated about how I love summers so much and why then I thought of all the good times I've had in the summers. So relaxing, barely any homework, time to spend thinking about how your going to tackle next year, girls, etc. Very nice stuff. Got home got the letter from "Universal" researched it, turned out the showcase was fake, didn't reallt mind, went to my room and made a REALLY good playlist with most of my favorite songs. Some of them are:

Pretty Wings - Maxwell
Inhale - Common
Hi-Definition - Lupe Fiasco
Let's Rick - Chrisette Michele
Throw It In The Bag (Remix) - Fabolous & Drake
Luv U Better - LL Cool J
Ain't no Sunshine - Theophilus London
She's So ATL/ Love My Outerspace - Hollyweerd
That Girl (feat. Snoop Dogg) - Pharrell
T.G.I.F. (feat. Chip Tha Ripper) - Kid Cudi
and approx. like 7-10 more songs.

Today was mad cool though, I feel like I aced my Spanish test cause for once I actually studied. Like it was a good day (and also someone was lookin' good today to, ask me if you want to know ;-). Finally, Addison came to my house in Brooklyn today I was legit proud of him lmao. So yeah, that was the last couple of days in SUM, haha.

"They just wanna see why
All they girlfriends be wanting pictures
I be flyer then a hundred navs
Worth a hundred hundrend stacks" - Chip Tha Ripper off of Kid Cudi's T.G.I.F.
