Kid Cudi pens letter to fan who passed away from...
Yet another reason to love Cudi…peep the story below via The Washington Post:
Hip-hop artist Kid Cudi has written a heartfelt note to an 18-year-old fan who passed away from a heart attack, one week after the teen posted videos to YouTube about his struggle with a heart condition.
Ben Breedlove suffered from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a condition that causes part of the heart to...

Fashion Picks
I chose 2 items I’m particularly fond of in fashion right now: 1. Chukka Boots There are a variety of styles, but, my personal favorite are the pointier toe ones, especially the tan colored ones that look somewhat worn out. They look very akin to these. I like both mid top & lows. You can see more colors & styles here. They’re very versatile because you can wear them...

Araabmuzik's 'Electronic Dream' (Deluxe Edition) -...
Just listened to this album in its entirety. I highly recommend this to everyone, especially my electro heads. Araabmuzik does a masterfully job weaving his impeccable MPC skills into euro house songs, including such hits as DeadMau5’s/Kaskade’s “I Remember.” Dope album. Didn’t skip a single track. Def deserved the high marks and to be on the various Best of 2011...
How many of u are actually following your true...

Ambition vs. Laziness
Just got into big argument w/ my friend about lazy people and the whole concept of ambition. If you’ve been given certain resources, opportunities, & talent, you have the responsibility to take advantage of them b/c NOT everyone has been blessed with such. I think it’s selfish to be lazy. I can’t stand it! If you’ve been blessed with opportunities to succeed and...

The difference between a failure and a mistake
A failure is a project that doesn’t work, an initiative that teaches you something at the same time the outcome doesn’t move you directly closer to your goal.
A mistake is either a failure repeated, doing something for the second time when you should have known better, or a misguided attempt (because of carelessness, selfishness or hubris) that hindsight reminds you is worth...

Merry
You can’t be merry by yourself.
Sure, you can be content, happy, possibly even delirious. But merriment requires a group, and that group is almost always a group you can see and touch, one that’s sharing the same molecules of air, face to face.
The digital revolution continues to get deeper, wider and more important. But it has made no progress at all at increasing merriment. ...

"Winning" (MUST READ for Anyone Trying to Get into...
This is simply a gem of a post from Bob Lefsetz. Hits it on the nail! A MUST READ:
So I’m reading Michael Lewis’s “Blind Side” about Lawrence Taylor and Bill Parcells says it’s not LT’s speed, his height or his build…but his will to win that makes him so successful.
Do you need to win?
If not, you’ll probably never make it in the music business. You might be able to schlep the...

Quick Thought on Tim Tebow & Religion
Funny how if one shows the smallest hint of homophobia, one is ostracized. But folks are annoyed by Tebow’s public displays of religion saying it’s way too much; that they’re annoyed by it. That they don’t need to know how much he loves God. This is yet more proof that liberals n conservatives are one in the same: just trynna force feed their beliefs on you. RESPECT...
