NEW CLOTHING LINE: DUMPE FRESH!!!

CHECK THESE PICS OUT FROM THIS FRENCH CLOTHING LINE AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK

Yeaa just more thoughts..my opinions tho

Why me?
Why does it come to the fact of males that treat women with respect and
dignity get fucked over?
Why is it that we don't appreciated?
Why is it that we get looked over?
Girls talk to much, all they say is shit that fills the world with hot
air,
I have a dream, matter of fact I'm gonna havea better reality,
Things just need to get in place,
Things just need to progress,
People need to stop lying, trying to save my feelings,
You can't take me down, never will, I stand still even when you don't
think
I've always made my self open to anyone I made friends with, I want to
be that different
I want to be the reason why they smile instead of crying,
I want to be the reason they wake up looking forward to the day instead
of dreading it
I want to be the reason they keep pushing instead of giving up
Why am I say I want to be?

I WILL be that dude

RICK ROSS LISTENING PARTY....

Crazy. So as I stepped into the CRC (Chicago Recording Company) studio downtown, I saw a bunch of people going into the place. Showed my face and said my name once, and then a woman I previously saw at an event said "I remember you, go on in", I mean I was like damn, that's status. So I brought my homie, john with me to show how the music industry is at music listening events, well Chicago that is. Place was packed!!! They had Red Bulls, liquor and females serving. It gave me an idea of how I sort of wanted to do some events in the future. So as I see familiar names coming in, I hear a few Rick Ross tracks that I like. Interesting, I think. I'm not gonna lie, Rick Ross got bitched by 50 cent, but his music speaks for himself, its some real Boss music. So then the music stops as I am near the back of the place and I knew it was just about to get hectic. I moved to the other side of the studio to not get squished to the point where people were rushing for pictures. So he comes out, I take a picture and john takes a picture too, one of them first people he got to.

Ross made his way to the studio room and faster then you can say "CURTIS!!" it was hazed with smoke. I didn't go into the room cause I can't stand smoke, but it seemed he and his people enjoyed the songs. So as me and my boy john realized we were hungry, we went to see what they had and realized they had some pizza. But as we guessed it, it was already gone. As the event seemed like it was about to be over, I heard this track with Kanye in it. His line had this classic rap "when I hit the club, girls get extra hype. When you step to the club, girls get extra tight. We know who's not getting no sex tonight!!!" wow Good to feel Ye is back.

Overall I think his album will do numbers just cause of the beef he got going wit Fiddy. It was a good event but just needed more food and less rain cause it was a pain swimming from UIC to get downtown with all that rain.

Feel free to disagree or what not but I just feel there should be more of a stance because of the actions 50 put out on Ross. But as i said before, his music speaks for itself, and its pretty good too.

Big Sean (GOOD Music/Def Jam)

Whats up everybody??





Been kind of a crazy week but let me get thru this with you all......


So the big homie and one of my new favorite artists Big Sean came through the Chi this week and I was able to chop it up with him at the northside Leaders location. Real cool guy and just gotta support him cause his story is inspiring.

DEF JAM IN THE BUILDING!!!!

Inspiration

Right now I don't know what is going through me. All I know is that I am
getting focused for a better tommorrow. Each day I learn something new
and gain more of a sense of awareness about a certain subject. I have
only missed one class, I don't go to sleep at 1 am anymore, more like 3
am. I should study and work on my math and communication paper work more
but more on that ish later, right now I'm focused on some other things

The past couple days I have received emails from people asking exactly
how I do the things that I do in this music industry. The first thing I
tell them is that I do ME!!!! I have a goal and I look to acheive it.
Nothing of worth comes easy, so u have to work for it. Lots of things
that I have done were because I just aimed for it and it just came to be
or it wasn't what it was supposed to be.

Things happen for a reason is a big thing in my life. Certain things that
we may agree and or really disagree with happen to only make us better as
people. You have to learn from your mistakes and when you do you get a
better sense of yourself and how far you have become.

For example. In the summer of 2007, I wanted to rock fashion geek and
needed to find out exactly who to contact and whatnot cause I loved the
brand. Now in 2009, my closet full of that shit, some shirts I aint even
worn yet, some my friends wore before I did!(cough, nick!!!!). I aimed
for something and made it happen. No if ands or buts. Just do it!!

I wanted to be a journalist and now have more than just be that option.
I can be a vice president of a label, something else, promo head for a
streetwear brand. Chicago assistant to a music mogul...I mean my future
is bright!!! But it wasn't because I pondered and sat about it, I went
out and grabbed it!!!

You can take all the advice in the world but its up to u to do what you
will withwhat was told to you. Stop limiting yourselves to only being
this and being that. A communication degree doesn't have to only land
yoiu as a PR person!!!!! I love my PR ppls but if u have bigger dreams
never settle for less than what you expect of yourself.

Stop talking and do it. Think about what you want to do and let your
actions speak through. Stop using words like I wish, I want...say I
AM!! Those will limit yourself to something u DON'T wanna be....I want
to be great...dude I AM GREAT!!!

Keep your head high and respect others around you. You are never better
than anyone, no matter your tax bracket, grade, religion, age or
whatnot. Appreciate everyday that you got and who cares about you. Never
settle for being second for anyone, if they can't realize your gift then
you need to move out of their space.

Be cordial. If someone says hi, look them In the eye, smile and say hi
back. I cannot tell you how many times people do not do that and is very
angering! Why be cocky about someone is saying hello?

Lastly, smile every single day and get a laugh. Life is all about
having fun and enjoying the person you are. When people do that, others
enjoy you a lot more as a person too.

"Be About Change."
"Be Creative"
"Think Futch"

Most importantly be YOU. Not what society expects of you
