Future of Comfort

With my move to the ATL right around the corner I've been looking into getting some unique furniture for my new apt happened to come across this piece by designer Jie-Jyun Lyu.

 Perfect for those unannounced guests

This tray is just want I need for my fruits, vegetables, and other greenery 

Not sure if these are real items or just ideas either way I definitely want them in my new pad, but then again people then would think my apt is "the spot".

Waken Baken Tour

This past Friday (10/29/10) the homie Duk & I hit the Wiz Khalifa Waken Baken Tour at the Dallas House of Blues.  The show was for the most part was cool but Wiz's set was extremely short, this is the 2nd time I've been to a Wiz Khalifa show. I enjoyed the fact that I had the chance to see Yelawolf, who proved why Raekwon gave his approval.  Yelawolf proves he doesn't have to sound like Em or like a "white version of" whoever to gain attention. Seeing the big homie Killa Kyleon get on stage and rep for the H was a good look as well as bringing Dorrough out, although cats in Dallas hear the same songs all day on the radio. As far as footage of course I got some just give me a few days to get things in order and I got you.  Remember this is an unorthodox blog I'm always busy so my thoughts are everywhere, but when the product is delivered believe it to be right.

G.O.O.D. Music: Dark Fantasy & All Of The Lights

Just when I thought I was on it with these G.O.O.D. Music tracks I recently came across this track Dark Fantasy, this happens to the opening track to the RUNAWAY movie.  Also All Of The Lights, originally titled Ghetto University ft. Drake, is the track you hear briefly during the firework showcase scene.  I can't wait for the complete track which is schduled to have 11 total artists on it and the beat has a majestic sound to it.....Nov 22nd My Beautiful Twisted Fantasy is going to be a classic.

Released yesterday, but hey it was worth the wait.  Having the legendary Pete Rock on the track was genius because this Curtis Mayfield sample was utilized so well took me back to that 90's soulful Hip-Hop.  I have been working with my friend up and coming producer Duk Johnson on making beats, resulting in my respect for the construction of music has grown dramatically, but back to the matter at hand.  Jay-Z of course ,whether or not you like the man, told you a story you could close your eyes and see.  As for Charlie Wilson & Kid Cudi  do what they do best and brings life to a track.    

Nicki Minaj- Right Through Me

What's there to say about Nicki Minaj that hasnt been said? She's talented.  Before the Lil Wanye co-sign & the industry all wanting a piece of her I came across her on the popular SMACK dvds & was hooked not only did she look like an BlackMen Magazine model she spit like a true New York rapper, and just went in.  Love her or hate her Nicki is a beast, or like she says a "M*therf**kin' Monster".  Here is the video for one of her current singles- Right Through Me and the visuals go so well with the song....

 I see Birdman & Diddy both studied the great Barry Gordy, Nicki Minaj has the makings to be that ONE.

But wait there's more!!!....

With the whole industry/world going ape sh*t over Kanye West's Runaway I had to get more tracks for you. The 1st is the latest G.O.O.D. Music Friday track DON'T LOOK DOWN ft.
