Tropical Skittles 11:00:00 PM

For someone reason I find these chains so dope. I was on Big Sean's site and eventually landed on the FRUITION site, and found this. I saw Rihanna, Kanye, Cudder, and Big Sean coping one of these, and this is in my desgin/fashion style so I'm definatley copin' one. For more pics hit the jump.

Flashback Post | John Legend's 'Again' 7:00:00 AM

I just realized that this whole time I have run this blog I haven't had one John Legend post. So here it goes family. This is one of my favorite songs from him off of his sophomore album Once Again, still in stores. I love the slow, calm environment he creates for the listener in the song, a great way to tell a story.

Thoughts on My Mind | Welcome to February 9:47:00 PM

Hola, familia. I know I might be a little late with this post but, I would like to share with you a pattern that always happens to me during february's specifically. Ever since I started middle school (and now I am in high school), I have always found February as the weirdest month out of the whole year. February consistently, for the past 5 years, have always been bad, or somewhat out of order, for instance, it can be simple as walking down the stairs every week in February since I started middle school I have fallen down a pair of steps. Usually, it's about one time a week. Also, in February's, my work flow seems to slow down but sudden constant not procrastination but occupation of projects, and lowering of regular grades etc. And the weirdest thing that happened to me this month was recently I almost was robbed of my computer (MacBook Air).

You see I had an ad up on Craigslist selling my computer and someone responded and wanted to see if it was still available... so I obviously responded "Yes, this Item is still available, are you looking to purchase?" He responds to me with an email saying "yes" but he is an international businessman and needs it to be shipped internationally (he was going to pay for the postage) and I get about $1,220 in the end. So it sounded like a great deal and fitted my income range and he wanted to pay through PayPal so I agreed and proceeded and I got an email from "PayPal" saying I got $1,350 in my balance (including postage) and I needed to give them the tracking number once shipped. I said "great" but, he didn't give me any info on if I was still paying for the postage and if I give it to UPS will I be charged so I go to the PayPal website and call them and 30 minutes later after setting up the account properly my balance was still at zero so the lady on the phone said could you read the email we "supposedly" send you and I read it. She said that the email was fraud and PayPal would never ask for the tracking number and send the postage, etc. All it added up because the postage stamp he gave me was false and everything. Well, curiosity is never a bad thing. For pictures of the emails he sent me hit the jump.

Welcome to February.

Those Quarter Waters 12:10:00 AM

Jay-Z really did an amazing job of picking a good director I mean these are probably the best visuals I have seen in a video in a LONG time. Happy New Year ya'll!

2010 is Here! 12:00:00 AM

"Celebration" by Kanye West

I'm sorry family but how could I not put up Celebration by our good friend Yeezy. Anyways, Happy New Year. 2010 is going to come with lots of progress and new ideas... maybe even a mixtape from me, but, shhh it's still a secret. I hope your enjoying the New Year wherever you are. 2010 has arrived.

Hustler For Life 4:48:00 PM

When I hear people talk complain about how much they have to do in their lives, and how they want to change that. I don't really mind, sometimes I might not even care. But when it comes to the people who don't complain and do what they got to do without getting any recognition... that's what get me upset at times. Now you see I'm not saying that Lil Wayne is all godly, but I am saying his work ethic amazes me. When I was searching for a photo on Flickr for a new post, I found this and the subline had a comment from the photographer who said "This was at a videoshoot and between shots Lil Wayne would go into slumber mode then as soon as they said action he would turn right back into a machine..." Hit the jump for a video of Urban Spin from QD3 talking about his work ethic, and why he's isn't supporting the documentary no more. Thank me later.

On To The Next One 8:17:00 PM

Wow. Nokia is seriously on the next level with this. Can't wait for this if 2012 doesn't happen (don't hate). Anyways, comment and enjoy.

Lupe Fiasco's "Fire" Live 9:35:00 AM

After seeing the first stop of Jay-Z’s tour at Penn State on Friday, I drove back to Morgantown, WV and made it in time to see Lupe perform at an underpromoted fraternity Step competition Sprite was sponsoring on campus. Here’s a video I took on my iPhone of Lupe performing his new joint “Fire”; he gives a minute-long intro explaining the track and what it has to do with MTV’s recently released 2009 Hottest MCs List. I believe this is the first time he’s performed the track.

-We Do It Right Mag

My man Lupe, you deserve to be on that list (so does KiD CuDi)! Anyway, I think that this is good for Lupe cause it's going to push him to do better music. Now this song right here I think is Fire itself.

Young Money Goes Worldwide 9:52:00 PM

Apprently, according to the homies at 2dopeboyz... Lil Wayne is releasing Carter IV and Rebirth as a double-disc on December 15th... the same day as the Young Money album. Wow, I wonder who's gonna win the which CD sells out first bet. Below is some comments I thought was interesting off of the 2dopeboyz comment box about this. Thank me later.

Carter 4 yo? Hmmm….this is interesting. It seems like Wayne is trying to get more music out before Drake hits the world with his debut album. Let’s hope it’s some quality music.

- Mike Dreams (2DB)

I doubt it will happen..if so..expect dopeness. Alot of the recent rebirth leaks were actually dope. Hope Carter IV wasnt rushed is gonna be like C1/C2/C3 Leaks.

- Jaywall (2DB)

Daamn, cash money is a machine and although i don’t like birdmans music he has built an empire and young money is about to do some big things. btw that song that played during the 1st video that said something about “you can take me out the ghettooo but…” sounded DOPE. looking forward to bootlegging birdmans album lol, that drake album is gonna be craazy. and im excited for C4/Rebirth and that Young Money Compliation should be interesting…
