"You Can't Be Afraid To Fail. Its The Only Way To Succeed. Your Not Gonna Succeed All The Time. You Have To Be Able To Accept Failure, To Get Better." I watched the "60 Minutes" segment with LeBron and when he said that I couldn't believe that he had to get that from somewhere. That was some thought provoking stuff especially coming from LeBron not tryna say that he's dumb because he definitely is not. All I know this quote is a quote that I will always carry in my mind for the rest of my life. I just want to thank LeBron for that REAL TALK!!!
Love vs Young Money... Oops you see Nivea what you done made me do!! LOL Im sorry but I couldn't hold that one back. I was on my way to work and I finally got away from the Drake So Far Gone Mixtape and decided to listen to The Dream Album and I must "LAAWWWDDD this Child is talented!!!" Its a very good sophmore album to say the least. I know you all heard the singles he got out so i wont even comment on those but I think everybody already knows what happens when Rockin That Thang comes on in the clubs or even on the radio. lol My Favorite track on there is "Kelly's 12 Play", some other tracks that are really good is "Love vs Money"(Is it me or was that song influence on the whole Nivea-Wayne situation) the lyrics were powerful and I could feel dude's pain on losing his everything to an "alien"!!(That Rhyme too!!) Another Certified Banger is "Put It Down" that track go hard. OOoo"Fancy" is a smooth track too. "Sweat it Out" is a R. Kelly type track too. The ladies are gonna love this album even though, most females find The Dream unattractive.(What?? Im keeping it G) Regardless if The Dream keep pumping out good music he gone be good with the ladies. Not trying to compare The Dream to R Kelly but Kelly went thru mad shit and I think regardless of all that if Bump N Grind come on the ladies go crazy!!!!!
UPDATE**: Two more tracks that I really can't leave off this review is "Right Side of My Brain"and "Mr Yeah". Ooo in the beginning of Right Side.. the voice saying Dooo Goo Doo is sooo tough, that track is a problem.
Sidebar: Check this video of The Dream in the studio:
They coming to St John's University on April 24th and i really can't wait. I really hope Ye can make a guest appearance and they could perform as "CRS" and perform they track Us Placers, that would be dope. I know I express how big of a fan I am of Lupe's, and XOXO Hadi is in love with Pharell, so imma bring a First Aid Kit with me just in case she collapse.
I made my way over to Kanye's blog like i usually do and he posted a link http://www.najle.com/idaft/ I must say this is so dope and addicting. Daft Punk really got the Hov treatment LOL. They made it a hot line, but Ye made it a hot song. Im really bout to go listen to Graduation now.
Sidebar: I really went and bought 2 Copies of Graduation and I still have the one that i never took out of the rapper. Just in case the RIAA cracks down and shuts down all illegal downloading by the time I have kids lol. Man I wonder what will we be listening to 30 years from, I don't think iPod gonna still be Hot in 30 years. Real Talk im not even gonna sleep on Apple though.
The issue hit stands almost a year a ago, April 2008. I know Im pretty late but, better late than never l0l. I finally got a chance to read the issue I never knew existed, Errykah Badu blessed the cover of Essence and spoke of past loves, her new life, & motherhood.She touches base on all the talk about her turning a guys into hippies, she explained that the guys that she's dated already had the hippie in them. She continued on saying, "When I met André, he had a head wrap on. And we swapped incense.Common was already eclectic in his rhyming and choice of hats and clothing (Essence)." There is a point when Badu recalls an encounter with Raphael Saadiq and goes on to explain how he would not look at her.She said not long a friend pulled her aside and said,"Girl, Raphael heard that you ain’t supposed to look Erykah Badu directly in the eye (Essence)." Word has it that Ms. Badu's honey eyes are the key to any man's heart, if she's willing to take 'em. When speaking about her children and her relationships with their fathers she says, " I’m a real good mother. And I make sure that the fathers are active. The queendom is in Dallas. Various times in the year, everybody’s there at once, and we all get along(Essence)."I loved every minute of reading this article ♥
The group is called The Lonely Island and they know the formula for a hit record...Put T Pain on it. LOL You may have seen the 3(Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone) on the funny movie, Hot Rod, and now they write and star for "Saturday Night Live". Now this talented trio are doing Comedic Hip Hop and I really found this video funny. The Group is signed to Universal and they have an album out Incredibad. I rather a DVD version so i can laugh at every video for each track. Google "The Lonely Island" for more funny videos.
University of Florida has engraved the speech that Tim Tebow gave after a 1pt loss to Ole Miss. I have to say this was one of the most motivational speech i ever heard from a college athlete, some pro can't even come up with something so creative and uplifting. Im not gonna front Tim Tebow had me wanting to put the pads on and go tackle somebody. I bet after that speech if he was to tell his team to go ou tand play Mississippi i guarantee ya they all woulda ran out there ready to kill Ole Miss. LOL Regardless I still don't think Florida would have beaten USC if they woulda played for the National Championship. Check out the Speech for those who don't know what im talking about.
