Friday, here at last. Definitely felt like it took it’s time getting here. I’m grateful nonetheless. Stay Up.
J. Cole ft Fashawn & Omen – “Relaxation”
There’s not much to say for this one. Simply a gathering of sounds leaking out my headphones while in the office. Tengo Cinco!
Young Gully ft. Messy Marv – “Refused”
It’s pleasant when life’s commotions come to a still and one can regain balance in life. Now that I’ve situated myself, I am back in the groove of running. Gots ta’ stay healthy, too many things I’m trying to do in this short time on this planet. This week’s choices were selected for their ability to supply that reserve energy. Stay Hungry! Get Active.
For those of you who are interested and able, the above image will direct you to Optimistic’s art show tonight in Emeryville that will also serve as a benefit sale for Ras Terms, an Oakland-based artist. Health matters folks, unfortunately it ain’t cheap.
Ras Terms was very recently involved in a car accident. The car he was in along with his partner was struck by a speeding car that was evading the police. The right side of his body was completely swollen. Terms is a full time artist and thus receives no benefits or insurance. You are the only community there is to help him pay for his medical bills and to assist him while he is not able to work.

The visual to complement the dope track put out by the beast from the East, J. Cole. One take with no cuts. Fire.

I won’t call em remakes, the way I see it they offer alternative interpretations. They pay tribute to past artists/works and keep us diggin’ through crates music folders just so we can reconnect. At times this connection is the only way we’d give new artists a listen. They tap into our memory to catch our attention. I’m a firm believer in our past experiences keeping us rooted to where we need to go. So with that, holler its Friday!
Fashawn – “Halftime” [Ode to Illmatic]
I know we’re well into 2010 but at this point in my life with summer around the corner its time to kick it into high gear. I mean 2010 has been the shit and one always has to be grateful for what they have, but is it wrong to want more? I say No. For those of you who know me, you know I keep myself occupied cuz the noggin’ stays churning. The way I see it I’m young; its the age to hustle for a better tomorrow. Get It!
