No words… Just Emoji. 
Disclaimer: I needed something to write about and the homie M.Rell suggested I go in on this topic. You can say these are some “random” thoughts on my behalf… I might be a boat and a hoe type of guy or I might not be… 
you’ll never know until you really get to know me… For now I’m just a writer with serious writers block… 
You ever wonder what the big deal about “Boats & Hoes” is?
Well, I do and I think about it sometimes because I’ve see it so much because my family lives by the water, I worked for the largest boating association in the universe and yeah; I’ve been on the boat.
The feeling a white man must get when he’s out on his expensive 30footer with his daughter’s little co-ed college girlfriends frolicking around his deck is probably one that is as euphoric as getting head while you’re high on opium. Geezz… I can only imagine what goes through the minds of men with boats and hoes.
It’s truly a lifestyle we wish we could all attain, but is the ultimate in frivolous and wasteful living. The funny thing about the “Boats & Hoes” is that I was told once by one of my wealthy co-hearts that “boats” and “hoes” are the worst investment you can make. The cost to maintain a boat outweighs the boats value within a few years and hoes come with the money, so why invest in them?
Homie had a point, but there’s something about boats and hoes that fascinates me so much and makes me wonder why people (particularly white people) have so many of them.
It’s no surprise that as I get older I want more out of life and I wishfully think that there’s more to success than maintaining a boat so some hoes can use it as a floating tanning bed. It seems to be something that I want either way. Not because it’s a sign of high status or because hoes on boats look better than hoes on land, but because when you feel like there’s nothing left, but that type of shit in your life, why not go in for it?
The ultimate goal for guys like me would traditionally be to get the boats & hoes because that’s all we see. I wanted simpler things like stability, a good woman, 2.5 kids and a 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom house on a ½ acre of land, but that’s what I came from and my mum and dad didn’t spend all this money on me for me to settle for less than more than what they gave me. And when I did try to “settle” for that life, I ended up on the short end of the stick. So fuck it…
It’s all about the Boats & Hoes for this nigga… For now…

Been rockin’ out to this record all week. Robin Thicke is the shit! One of my favorite artists since way back to 2002 when he did “When I Get You Alone” record, while he was going though the long hair and bike messenger phase…
Any hoots Meiplé is hard and is just a fun ass song yo… Jay-Z kills it as usual and it’s all love on this one.
FYI: The official single “Shakin’ It For Daddy” with Nicki Minaj is CRAZY TOO! It’s been on serious rotation when I’ve gone to the gym this past week!

The first artist to make me stop listening to Jay-Z… The dude who knows no boundaries of creativity and does what he wants with his gift… The dude that made me want to keep doing this music shit forever… The reason I appreciate Hip Hop music still… The guy I talk to at phone @ 8am every morning about whatever is on my mind… The little known major inspiration/influence to everyone’s favorite artist right now (Drake)… The reason why I feel being creative is worth the trouble if you mean it… The person who taught me loyalty… The pickiest eater and hungriest nigga I know…The reason I started putting my family ahead of some of the other shit in my life… The reason I started working out (need to get my F on for the ladies)… The reason why a lot of underground rappers are scared right now… The reason a lot of mainstream rappers are stepping up their game…
The True God Emcee… Nickelus F
Some words for F on his birthday…
As we slowly approach our dreams and path in life to success; you’ve been a patience soul… Someone who like myself hasn’t settled for anything less than what their heart desires. I realize more than ever that happiness isn’t found in making do with what you got to work with, it’s making do with the potential you have in you to become something greater. Some of us have given in, some of us have settled, but with each passing day we’ve come closer and closer to our dreams and aspirations to the point where it’s so close we can see it, now it’s a matter of grabbing and holding on to it FOREVER…
I know if I stopped living and breathing today that I was part of something great… A legacy of entertainment that to most people doesn’t mean much at all because it hasn’t been broadcast on MTV & VH1, but means the world to me because I believed in it more than anything in my world. People can say what they want, but if they don’t listen… Well, they’re missing out and like every non believer they will soon enough jump on the bandwagon when the media starts to recognize the movement.
So when this shit all comes together let’s ride that wagon till the wheels fall off and we don’t have a care in the world nigga! OH-10 is gonna be bigger and better than we’ve ever done it. We’ve made an impression, now it’s time to make that impression FELT…

I remember doing an oral report on the Illuminati in the 10th or 11th grade and using this song as my example of how popular culture and the secret society are starting to converge… I was so right and Honors English class wasn’t ready for Onyx at all… I got away with saying “Nigger,” Bitch,” & “Fuck” in the name of academics! How real is that?
It was some rappers from QUEENS that enlightened me to what the world was really about in my teenage years… See us people from the Queens Borough are so smart, innovating, creative and ahead of our times, so this stuff is common knowledge.
Pay attention to the rhetoric in this song and look at how we are nowadays. If you don’t know much about the “Illuminati” google it, read Behold A Pale Horse or if you’re an extremist watch an Alex Jones video… I’m going to do my write-up on the Illuminati soon…
I’m ghost… Last Dayz niggas… I’m off the Cheers for some wings
“I’m America’s nightmare/ Young black and just don’t give a fuck/ I just want to get high and live it up/ So fuck a 9 to 5/ And whitey tryin to slave us/ With minimum wages/ Slammin my niggas up in cages/ Changing their behaviors/ And spittin razors that’s outrageous/ Smoking mooches is hopeless…” -Fredro Starr

Less of a stupid needy chick song like her “Doesn’t Mean Anything”, but a little harder of a track with a better message of ‘GET OVER IT.” Still sweet and still super emo… Typical Alicia. I’m still with you AK! Make something we can really rock to before the album drops homie!

Extreme “More Than Words“
In my opinion the best acoustic guitar song ever made and makes me think to myself sometimes you really don’t have to say too much to get your point across and it’s sometimes easier to just know someone cares rather than have to play the part 24/7…
When people say they care or they love you 24/7 more than likely it’s an act and with any “act” the show eventually ends… You know it’s real when you don’t have to remind yourself.
Aight… time to write about Boats & Hoes. Enjoy this soft shit while it lasts because I’m about to get real aggressive with my new content.
“Saying I love you/ Is not the words I want to hear from you/ It’s not that I want you/ Not to say, but if you only knew/ How easy it would be to show me how you feel/ More than words is all you have to do to make it real…”

Very dope video… A lot of aggressive content here…I will give Chris Brown a pass the Rihanna shit. I know it’s wrong and I’d never do some shit like that and trust me, I’ve had some monsterous bitches get on my shit. I’d never swing on a jawn though… That’s not cool. Only God can judge you now C.Bro…
So yeah, speaking of aggressive content and beatings. 50’s album leaked a couple of hours ago. I’m so fucking with it right now… I’ll check back soon enough with some updates on that.
Enjoy this record though… I call it C.Bro’s redemptions….

For the past year and some change I’ve seen my world change a lot. I’ve taken on new ways of thinking, new friends and a new way of life that border lines the savage contention of the “common man.”
I realize more than ever that I’m not “common” and no one around me is either… Nor do we strive for just being content with what life has to offer to us on our first run up to the buffet that it is (life). We go for more and have gone to the greatest of lengths to get it. I’ve always believed there’s no limit to the amount you can do if you’re willing to do it and go hard for it! That’s why I do music and that’s why now I want to make a movie… It’s shit that I know I can do… Shit I feel I can do and become great at.
And I don’t dream any more… I live and do what I want. I tell my niggas that all the time… “You only live once…” “Live for the day…” “Do it like you’re doing it for TV…”
All cliches, but real fucking talk and last night I saw it for what it really was. What we’ve worked for and want out of life; which is all the “d’evils” everyone seems to hate on when they see people getting them from a distance. All the “good” shit I’ve touched in the past (cars, money, bitches & the good life), but lately seem to be a little at a distance to me lately…
Well… H Diddy seems is primed and ready for it now and so are my niggas! No matter what we do; success is all that’s in our vision and it’s not only for us, but for everyone who’s eating with us, but they got to feel it and work just as hard for it.
And don’t worry about our shit… It’s going to be straight in OH-10…
LOYALTY, TALENT, DRIVE & LOVE…
Those are the things that no matter what goes down between us stays consistent and I saw that last night when we reunited with a friend that seemed to be “so far gone” at some point, but in real terms is still down to earth with (us) his niggas. It was some real shit and made me feel good that some of that new positive attitude I’ve adopted from Nick, Aby and even the Muse seems to be working out for me and all of us.
Life’s only going to get better… Success or Die. Are you in?
YEP!… I’ve got to watch Penn State V. Michigan in a few and I wanted to say that and I wanted to post some pictures from this week up. I’ve gotten to chill with some real talent lately…It’s gotten me inspired already! Look out for some great writing from me soon… I’m changing up the style a bit

Downtime is always when I decided to get inspired by watching a movie, listening to music and reading… I haven’t heard this song in over 10 years… It’s so back in rotation and I still know every word.

This sounds like a terrible R.Les impression of Pharrell…
It might grow on me, but right now it sounds like he’s trying to bite off Chad Hugo’s production style and Pharrell’s style of singing… I do dig when R.Les raps though. He don’t go in, but he does his thing.
I think this is the last leak and I have the whole album and it’s pretty dope! It doesn’t hold the weight his first album did for me though. That meant a lot more in the scheme of things personally than this one… Overall this one is more or less a good listen, rather than a heartfelt work of art to me.
Any hoots, download the new jawn and enjoy!

Ali holding the big boy Ciroc Obama
November of last year I decided to take a bet with my friend Lois Lame Loser which was for both of us to stop drinking till her birthday in February of 2009.
Well long story short we tied and both felt great afterward. Of course she got wrecked on her birthday and I celebrated by drinking about a half gallon of Ciroc Obama on Valentines Day with Whoo-Lee Hoop, Ali & Shaun… How liberating a moment it was and how easy was it to get back into “drankin’” again.
Most of all what I got out of the experience was that I got to help a friend who maybe at the time needed a break from the extremes of life like I did. I don’t know any other reason why I’d do it than that. After all Lois was there for me when I almost made the biggest mistake of my life about a year before our bet ended.
See… What she doesn’t know and will read now is the night I first talked to her on the phone was the night I’d almost well… Let’s just say I almost made the biggest mistake of my life… She know the story now, but after I didn’t go through with it, I felt so off and needed someone to talk to. I saw her on MSN or AIM or whatever and hit her up. We ended up talking till like 6am and she we got to know each other so well after that.
Since that day we’ve been the best of friends. We talk about relationships, crack obscene jokes and just vibe like we’re actually neighbors… LL has been someone I confide in, trust and most of all will always look out for and do stupid shit like take bets like this and not drink or whatever. As long as I know she’s somewhat in a good space that’s all that really matters.
What’s crazy is we’ve never actually met in person… She came to me as a fan of Nick’s (Nickelus F) in 2005, started randomly hitting me up on AIM in 2007 and since 2008 she’s been there for the kid.I’m kind of glad we haven’t actually met in person yet because the way we are now seems to work, but the day will come and I think we’ll be aight…
So now some time has passed and another year has gone down the toilet. She’s still here and we decided to do what we did last year again, but for only 2 months…This time I was more will and able because I moderated a lot of the bad shit in my life, bad food, bad women and most of all bad writing…
So yeah… She caved and lost our new bet last weekend and even twitted about it
And now I’m so proud of myself for being a winner and beating a white girl. There’s no greater feeling in the world than that!
And Lois there’s always next year, next time or whatever… You’ll get another chance at it one day, but for now you’re just a loser… Daam shame too you’re so smart, so sexy, so rich and so white… You should have breezed though 2 months without blinking, but I guess that’s the breaks
I still got love for you though and will always be mindful of how great you are to me. This weekend, when I’m getting twisted at the Drizzy show for Howard Homecoming, I’ll sing his song “The Winner” in your honor.

“Faded Memories” is not one of the songs I paid much attention too on Nina Sky’s first album, maybe because it’s that cliche sad story about heart break and holding on to the past memories of love that clearly didn’t work out. And of course at that time I didn’t have much of an emotional tie to any woman that wasn’t based on a good sexual relationship.
I didn’t start thinking like a chick till 2-3 years ago when the time I spent with a woman was more important than money, sex or whatever meant to me, yeah maybe I was in love… But not with them, but I was in love with the situation. I loved to be part of something bigger than just me for once and to be embraced by family and friends in such away that made me feel “loved” made me think I was in love.
But what exactly is love? The more I think about it; it becomes a more of an obscure notion to me. I’m by no means in love now. I realized that my past “love” is my past and it was good and I have no regrets, but time wasted…
My “NOW” is to get on and be real about life. Can’t get caught up in what could have been with her or the one after that. People like me don’t need to be loved… We need to be wanted!
And to preach on about finding real love is another cliche because we never really get what we want when other people tend to dictate what they think we need when it comes to love.
If I was looking for stability, I’d love a girl who worked for the government or a hospital. If I was looking for good sex, I’d marry a porn star. If I was looking for money, I’d marry a rich old lady…
I’m just looking for someone who’s like me, who gets me and accepts me for me. Not much to ask for when you have everything else, but it’s the most difficult thing to find when you already met her and will prolly never see that again because silly me can’t even manage to be friends with someone like me…
Faded memories… Nah… I try not to let them fade because why forget about the good stuff when that’s what really counts, right?
And there’s too many fly jawns out there… Why dwell on what could have been great when living in the now can breed some decent potential.
By the way… I was just planning on posting this video of the Nina’s performing “Faded Memories” live @ SOB’s last month and went into my tangent about love and women and shit… Oh well… At least I got in out.

Dude gave me some irrational advice, but it was on me to take it or not and being that I’m type irrational myself of course I went with my heart and did what I felt was right… Then this nigga drops this record. And like I always says, “real life makes for the best art…” and this definitely got me open.
I feel what he says on this one mainly because I met someone who made a serious difference and I took that chance and I knew that it could have been real… But they weren’t willing to take the chance and instead they dropped me. Yeah… I got dropped from being someone’s friend (Pretty lame)… Since then I write shit like this because I still have no clue why or what for when I took it on myself to keep a friendship like that going…
I’m a hard act to get along with, but if you actually cared like you said you did; you could have endured… That’s what real friends do right? And I still believe that I have a real friend out there and hope one day whatever happened in that person’s head will disappear because… I don’t know I’m a dreamer I guess and I don’t give up on people that made an impact/difference on me… <=== How real is that?
If you haven’t noticed my friends and family mean the world to me. That’s something about me that’s not going to change ever because they’re the reason I am who I am today. Without their impact; I’d prolly be pretty down and out right now and doing some shit with my life I wouldn’t be content with. Y’all keep me going… I LOVE Y’ALL NIGGAS!
Any hoots, enjoy this new R. Les. Transition album out 11.03.2009

“See I knew it was right, so I took the chance/ Disregarded the challenge of the circumstance/ Now you’re too big a part of me to let you go/ …I promise/ …So despite the way I make mistakes & despite the direction this love my take/ You can always be sure of me; just have faith/…I got you…

I love songs with a little subtle undertone of taking chances in life. After all life is the ultimate game of chance we play. Some of us settle up and don’t gamble on love, people or our path…
Others (myself included) don’t mind taking chances and pulling the trigger…Whether we blow our brains out or live to talk about it tomorrow… At least you took a chance on trying to do something good… Something better… Something great…
Okay… Before I get to philosophical I just want to say.. . ===> Very dope single Rih Rih I like it a lot.

I’m thinking in Autotune tonight… It’s Saturday night… Cold… Rainy… Playing it solo dolo…
I’m in watching movie mode and had a chance to peep Noureen Dewulf in West Bank Story again… This time I paid attention since I need to take some pointers from the dialogue and on the second watch it was very, very dope!
I’m trying to figure how to make what I write subtly “non-offensive” because of the cultural commentary and conflict in my story… I want people to laugh and relate to my shit. This movie (for as short as it is) makes light of a real situation, but wasn’t too offensive to the whole Israeli & Palestinian conflict that it poked fun at.
SIDE NOTE: ===> I loved the Kosher Kings and Hummas Hut battle; too funny!
See my whole vision for my project revolves around how we live in the moment with some people and neglect to think about underlying issues such as culture, religion and family… What do we pick at the end of the day? I want my story to go through 3 general ways of thinking and ultimately lead my character down towards destiny’s path. I’m coo coo bananas for even thinking like this, but that’s the ‘mad scientist’ in me wanting to creatively show you that even though this shit is real and hurt, it’s not something that doesn’t deserve to be made light of because realistically laughter is the best medicine .
Alex AKA The Mad Hater
Of course Alex (The Mad Hater) has no faith in my vision or the fact that after music I will do the movie thing. Yes… He’s been wrong before… Well multiple times really, but we’ll chalk that up to his passion for perfection and when he takes home an Oscar of his own for actually making a movie with me and not knowing someone who edits news stories, he’ll feel more fulfilled.
For now I have more writing to do. It’s kind of fun to whip up scenarios from real life and put them into something that ultimately is going to amount to my life’s work. Time is on our side now and we’re gonna do some serious with it!
Enjoy the movie and shout out to Noureen Dewulf. She’s going to be a problem in 2010… And I only believe this cause this nigga is fucking funny and I know funny because I’m like the funniest person ever!

I’d post the Diwali “swastika,” but I want to spare myself from being considered “offensive” so I didn’t, but I think I’m being offensive by even calling it a “swastika” in the first place… Oh well…
It’s Diwali and all my Asian Indian people are celebrating the Festival of Lights over the next 5 days or so and since I’m not “Indian,” but “West Indian” I wanted to put my own people’s twist on the celebration
So… Enjoy The Diwali Riddim a classic dance hall riddim inspired by the holiday. Also check out my favorite jam from the riddim “Times Well Hard (Overcome)” by Wayne Marshall. It’s dope and makes me move!

“Times well hard and they are today/ But if you don’t work then you won’t get paid/ Many obstacles come along the way/ Overcome, overcome/ Many are called but the chosen few/ Nothin in this world that you can do/ If you work hard then you will pull through overcome, overcome…” – Wayne Marshall

I always said Drake made music I can really relate to and this is one of those tracks… It really rings bells for me and makes me fell kinda … but that’s the way life goes and if things change and they become real again, I’ll definitely be inclined to become everything and more to that one person on whatever level… But for now I’m just waiting for them to SAY SOMETHING… Definitely feeling what he’s talking about on this jawn.
Any hoots, sounds like Drizzy tweaked up some unreleased vocals for this Timbo collaboration. I think I heard some of these bars on other records that haven’t leaked at all, but I like it. Thank Me Later is gonna be a problem…
Thank me later… H
“…But I guess things change/ It’s funny how someone else’s success brings pain/ When you’re no longer involved & that person has it all & you just stuck standing there/ But I’ma need you to SAY SOMETHING BABY…”

Nobody’s misunderstood… That’s just what people say when they don’t like who they are.” - Bobby Funke (Assassination of a High School President)
As I continually write and brainstorm over my screenplay, I’ve started to watch obscure mainstream movies for inspirational dialog and techniques. I came across this movie called Assassination of a High School President and fell in love with the way this kids carry themselves and the witty almost apathetic noir of the way this movie was shot. It’s like a dark comedy and is shot in the same way the last Batman movie was shot… Grainy and dark…
I was taken in by the main character Bobby Funke because he reminds me of myself sort of… Someone who is in search of answers, love and his big break… Bobby wants to be an investigative reporter, while I’m on my way to some sort of (sorry for the cliche) “MOGUL STATUS,” but the passion is there and the drive is there. The kid is intelligent, weird, obnoxious and motivated by his search for the truth.
I’m giving him/the writers of this movie my quote of the day because people who say, “You don’t understand me…” “You’ll never get me…” “I’m misunderstood…” are using that as a defense mechanism when people finally get them… I used to think along those lines myself… Maybe becauseof the attention factor involved, but now it’s like I’m SCREAMING OUT LOUD and I think most of you understand every word I’m saying…
What’s ironic is that people who hide behind the mask of “misunderstanding” usually become the most cut and dry people we see in society… The people who wake up and go to work and live like the robots most of society is slowly becoming… I can’t be like that and I’ll never accept it.
If you feel you have the passion to do more with your life than the run of the mill, than do it! Win or lose you’ll at least feel like you tried… At the end of the day that’s what really matters… I can’t go through life feeling as if I didn’t at least try… Even if I end up a “robot” I can at least say I went after what I believed in and wanted out of life. I “killed myself” once and now it’s time to take my new self to new levels… < === How real is that?
Oh yeah… There’s definitely exceptions to the rule… Like….. LIL WAYNE… ummm yeah, but I don’t think he’s human status anymore

Was 46inch Sony TV monitor YouTube surfing at Ali’s house and I found reason #1,000,000,000,000,000 why I love the NINAS. ===> Nicole is sick on the 1’s & 2’s. Sexy women who DJ are the shit! I have to check out Nicole when she does her Ni** Sky thing in a the club… As a matter of fact, I might get back on my turntable shit when I get back to NYC… I miss rockin’ parties! That’s the greatest feeling in the world… Seeing people enjoy you just rockin’ out to your favorite records.
Oh yeah… Nickelus F x Nina Sky collaboration? hhhhhhmmmmm…
Here’s Nicole trying to teach her sister messing around on the turntables for the camera.

I’ll have to admit it I’m a closet Fall Out Boy fan… Don’t judge me, but they made one of my favorite songs of all time… “Car Crash Hearts(Thriller)”
This song doesn’t make much literal sense really and frankly I think the song is more about killing yourself or killing multiple people… Lines like, “I can take your problems away with a nod and a wave… of my hand cause that’s just the kind of boy that I am the only thing I haven’t done yet is die and it’s me and my plus one in the afterlife…” shit like that kind of throw me for a loop and he keeps saying, “Fix me in ‘45′…” Is he talking about a pistol to fix him??? WOW…
I don’t even know… The message is blurred and you can interpret it the any way you’d like…
Any hoots, let’s talk about my favorite line from this song instead:
“I have found the safest place to keep all our old mistakes. Every dot-com’s refreshing for a journal update…“
I look at that line like this… See when you write a blog, a journal, a book, screenplay or an honest piece of music, people pry into your life and talk about it… Like it really is thier business, but it’s kind of not, it’s what drove you to be creative and may or may not be spot on to how you feel. Like if I make a video blog with 6 girls in it and we’re joking about sex and shit… It doesn’t mean I’m fucking all of them… I always say the best way to entertain is to express real shit in your art because it makes it something people can relate to. Especially when you do music or comedy.
So why do I do it? Why do I spill my thoughts and feelings on this blog, a book and scripts?
Well… I wrote a blog about this awhile ago called WHY DO I WRITE? and the flurry of criticism still hits me, so I want to explain in more detail… Why I Write…
Not for the attention because there’s so much I regret writing as I think back that I wouldn’t want the people I wrote about to even see now, but it’s too late and you have to live with regrets sometimes… It’s always going to be hard to look at the shit I used to write even though a lot of my readers love it… I can’t go back and say I was in the right state of mind when I went in and yeah some of it was just wrong…
Not for a reminder of my past because my past is what it is, the past and if it comes back around it will be my present. Ain’t no way to tell the future when we live in the now. People get it fucked up when they plan for the future… The most successful and happy people I know live in the now and don’t worry about if the market crashes or if they don’t get the right job or the right mate. We live, learn and grow from our mistakes. That’s why we were given this life. 1st, 2nd and 3rd chances come into play when God says you deserve them. If you don’t get them then it’s game over… You’re past, present and future are definitely irrelevant…
I do this because it’s my release from the craziness I see, the people who get in my head and life in general. I spend time talking to creative people daily and we’re all pretty much the same. We strive to be understood by the masses, but keep changing when they start to catch on because that’s the way we like it (STRAIGHT PARADOX). I’m also LEFT handed and they say we think with the right side of our brains, which tends to make us more free thinking, open-minded and most of all temperamental when we’re faced with people trying to limit us. Also, having a creative mind is a blessing and a curse because we need outlets to let this stuff we think out. To hold it back is basically setting you up to go mad eventually… Trust me… I know the feeling oh too well… I was stuck in that mindset for almost 2 years now and recently got set free!
So to all my writers, musicians, painters, sculptors, graphic designers and people who doodle in their notebooks… I tip my hat to you and dedicate this Fall Out Boy “Car Crash Hearts (Thriller)” song to you to ponder over and enjoy. It’s one of those things you have to appreciate because as much as it doesn’t make sense it’s still CREATIVE and if you can’t appreciate art in all it’s forms, you’re not as worldly as you my think you are…

“Alright I’m dealin’ with some shit homie, it’s in the back of my head. An’ it’s some shit homie, but I just rap write it instead… An’ it’s hard try’na keep this in ya; So I write it all down, so one day maybe when LIFE is all sweet I’ll remember… An’ I’m the only thing that’s standin’ in my way y’all.

Here’s the pictures from last Tuesdays Ryan Leslie & Hal Linton Showcase hosted by Lexus Cars… I held back on putting these on the blog because I wanted to edit the video of the Ryan Leslie/Hal Linton interview and post them with the pictures. The footage came out crappy because the green room had shit lighting and the noise from the band who was literally like 20 feet from the room drowned out a lot of what Ryan was saying. I’ll keep working on it and see what I can eventually post up here. Oh yeah and Hal Linton will be a big deal watch!
Overall we had a great time, Shaun got twisted, Ali got to show off his new coat and I got to chop it up with Ryan Leslie (I’m pissed cause I left my nerd glasses on and didn’t put the ice grill on… ).
Overall, I walked away from that show with a little knowledge from Ryan Leslie that I took back and used… Needless to say he was wrong and I think I have to resort to his Plan A which I made into a Plan B or just go on like I’ve been for the last 3 months and just be chill… I think I’m gonna just chill because there’s nothing I can really do or say to fix something that never was broken in the first place, so I’ll spare myself the drama and bask in the knowledge that for once in my life, I can admit my faults and improve on my own and I think that’s all I really need to do now. After all, I live with no regret now. People change like the seasons do, but their impact and reason for being there remains the same.
Any hoots… I can’t front I had a great time and took some awesome pictures. Shout outs to my big homie Jay (From Universal), Dwight (From Lexus) & Ali & Shaun for being my plus ones and enjoying the free drinks and food while I had to snap pictures and take video while they lived it up… FYI Lois Lame, I’m still not on the wagon No liquor = Happy Healthier H (Is December here yet?)
So there it is… Enjoy the pictures and if you notice… R.Les got a big ol’ head like your man H Diddy… I guess big head niggas are really the most creative <=== HOW REAL IS THAT?

Sometimes a kind word keeps my good vibes going in an up doo and up beat manner. Thanks French Tutor… I’m back in NYC the top of 2010 as I promised myself. No time like the present to do what I vowed to do for myself I’d do this year.
And thank you C.E. for the real talk that made me write that last blog (QUOTE OF THE DAY: Christina Evangeline).
Now it’s all about spending the time to make things work from now on instead of tearing shit down.

“Taking care of business yeah without a doubt/ And I’m ‘ma make a million dollars kid before I’m out/ Yeah I gotta give a shout to my peeps in Corona/ Going hand to hand gettin’ loot on the corner/ Life is full of stress and to rest my brain/ So I puff the buddha bless and destroy the pain/ I gotta a lot of things to do, a lot of money to make/ I got no time for you and all the moves you fake…”
