LOVE: "..if you don't risk anything"



"Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? LOVE is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more.”

NYC EVENT: ART OPENING - Powers That Be




March 30th 6 - 8p
The Cooper Union 
41 Cooper Sq
New York, NY 10003

Esteban Cabeza de Baca and Fletcher Williams present Powers That Be, an art exhibition revising lost history to understand who we are today. 
If Painting could speak it would express how energy is produced, narrate revolutions in energy and prophesize how power effects consumption. 
These works also magnify the power relationships that each of us partake in on a day to day basis as we shop for the latest designer fashion, 
blast our car stereo audaciously louder than the car next to you us, or be delivered a bottle of Grey Goose with bursting sparklers blooming from the top.
The show will consist of installations, sculptures, and paintings. 

Music provided by DJ Reg West and Wine and food will be served !!!


QUESTION: Consequences



Why do people complain about situations that their own actions have gotten them into?

if you can't handle the consequences why put yourself in that situation?

A Shawn Carter Documentary: NY-Z


So, Today marks the day that HOV'S short film has been released. I remember seeing the short preview to this during his BP3 Concert at Madison Square Garden a few weeks ago. The documentary is VERY insightful & Inspiring of course ! Shawn Carter should be respected, and appreciated and looked at as an inspiration for how far he has came. But I guess it's true when they say "The more GREAT you get, the more HATE you get". Anway, ENJOY this film !!

ABsolut Vodka presents “NY-Z”, a new 15-minute documentary featuring Jay-Z the film was Directed by Danny Clinch.


PS: L&L OFFICIAL MAGAZINE LAUNCH. COMING SOON !! SOON, YOU WILL ALL UNDERSTAND. Thanks so much for EVERYONES PATIENCE & SUPPORT...

Im about 1000% sure your going to find this on 98% of other sites/blogs.  I usually wouldn't post what is saturated on ALL other sites & such BUT in this circumstance. How could I not, this mixtape has been highly awaited for.
So without further adue ..

QUESTION: Exchanging Passwords


WHY ASK FOR YOUR GIRL/BOYFRIENDS PASSWORD FOR FACEBOOK, TWITTER, ETC BUT YOU CAN'T HANDLE WHAT YOU SEE ??


The only thing your looking for is to get hurt. If you have a gut feeling that he or she is up to no good then why bother being with them. A relationship is based on trust and if that's not there then its pointless.

Boss Lady | VA$HTIE KOLA

Lexxie has inspired me to do a Boss Lady post. LOVE the concept ! So I want to take the time to pay homage to the LOVELY, VA$HTIE KOLA. 



VA$HTIE is a SUPER creative, ambitious, woman. I think she does close to EVERYTHING. Which is why she is such a role model to me. She is a music video director (with work such as Justin Beiber-one time, Solange- T.O.N.Y, C.R.S-US Placers, ETC). She's an artist, creative director, party promoter AND she has her own clothing line (Violette). I LOVE her tom boyish, yet CLASSY style. Her style is what REALLY gets me. As well as her 'Steeze'. It's through the roof. I can see why Pharrell dated her ! Anyway, the point is, she stands for female empowerment.  An INDEPENDENT, AMBITIOUS young lady.
Check out her EXTREMELY CREATIVE website, as well as her clothing line.

The 9 Deadly Words of a Woman.

I came across this blurb that pretty much describes a womans vocabulary wen conversing with a guy & i must admitt its pretty hilarious . & some what true lol

The Definitions to Understanding a Womans Vocabularyy
  1. Fine : This is usually used to end an arguement when were right & we need you (the guy) to shut up 
  2. Five Minutes : If were getting dressed, & we tell you 5 mins that usually means half an hr or more
  3. Nothing :  This is usually means SOMETHING. and you should definetly be on the look out for it !. Arguments that begin with nothing tend to end with fine.(refer back to #1)
  4. Go Ahead : This is a dare. NOT permission DONT Do It !
  5. Loud Sigh: This either means theres an issue that she wants to discuss and wants YOU to ask "whats wrong" or she either annoyed or thinks your an idiot and wonders why shes wasting her time arguing about nothing (Refer back #3 for the meaning of nothing)
  6. Thats okay : This is one of the most dangerous statements a woman can EVER make to a man. This usually means its NOT okay & wants to think long & hard about deciding how & when you will pay for your mistake.
  7. Thanks : A woman thanking you. do not question . Just say your welcome  (unless she says Thanks-alot then she is being sarcastic & she is not thanking you at all actually. DO NOT say "your welcome" That will bring on a whatever)
  8. Whatever : Plain & simple means F--- YOU !
  9. Dont Worry About It : Another dangerous statement meaning this is something that she wanted you to acknowledge or do & you havn't; so shes doing it herself. Where this will result in the guy asking "Whats wrong?" and in turn you will a get #3 .
so THERE you have it ! its pretty hilarious  & it does have some truth to it .
Take it as you see it .  

Mixtape: Hi On Campus - Papa Jae

Check this out ! New mixtape from a DOPE NYC group. With their hit single "Girlfriend Poser"

Terry Richardson is a GENIUS ! 


BEST Friend.

You can have a MILLION friends. But the individuals that have the BEST friend title are the ones that understand you and support you more than ANYONE else. At least that’s how I feel it should ALWAYS be. NEVER should you turn your back on your best friend, just because you’re tired of them complaining, OR don’t agree with their situation. Of course there will be times that you feel your friend is making a HUGE mistake. But your job as a BEST friend is to just be there to listen & help remind her of the consequences if your feel so strongly about what she is doing is wrong. NOT to just avoid her, because you’re tired of hearing her pointless complaining. And at the end of the situation, if it turns out YOU were RIGHT, you are NOT there to give her the “I told you so”. Being a BEST friend, you’re there to help her pick up the pieces and keep it moving. People are to live life and make their OWN mistakes, as well as their OWN judgments. So, if you have a best friend that you feel is making a HUGE mistake, just be there for her. But as playing a huge role as being her BEST friend, DO NOT give up on her. If my two best friends were to EVER give up on me, or NOT want to hear it anymore, I’d feel at my lowest. It would make my situation ten times worse. Because, at the end of the day, I would always feel as if I will ALWAYS have my best friends to fall back on no matter WHAT. If they weren’t there, I’d have nothing, and would just fall.

Having a BEST friend role is NOT easy. BUT once you have it, PLAY it. Do not take your role lightly. Because you now have an individual depending on you at ALL times.


QUESTION: Know Your Worth

WHY DO GUYS/GIRLS HOLD ON TO PEOPLE WHO AREN'T WORTH HOLDING ON TO ?
Photobucket
Talk about knowing your worth but yet settle for those who don't acknowledge it. People always cry and get mad at the person who puts them through so much but never takes themselves out of that predicament. Honestly, the real person you should be mad at is yourself. Though every situation people are either blind to whats going on or they just pretend not to see it; At the end of the day no one is keeping you there but yourself. I guess its just one of those things that are easier said then done.....love is blind !

Boss Lady | The Elite Ladies (Morgan & Mikelle)

These two young ladies are a prime example, or two young & ambitious ladies. Although they are fairly young the amount of drive & perseverance they display at such a young age is Extremely commendable.

They currently  have a blog entitled the TheEliteNYC.blogspot.com which you can glance at & see how determined & intelligent they are. 
Morgan & Mikelle are two pretty, young, & classy. girls. That uphold themselves with the utmost RESPECT. Which is what alot of girls lack ! . 

They know where their going & have NO doubts that they're going to make it . 

L&L ; loves & supports you guys xo. :)

I  saw this quote on the cover of an OLD "Time Magazine" & instantly fell in love it speaks for itself. 
For our generation the time is NOW ! we are doing the damn thingg ! SO be proud ! & not afraid to gloat. 
They didnt think we'd be a focused & determined to do it, & just tossed it as silly dreams   
BUT if you take a glance were doing it !!  Were fueled by people telling us were NOT able to do something  

Its our time ! 
POINT BLANK !!

When You Fxck Up.. Someone else Luck Up !

But I Fxcked Up, I Know I Fxcked Up, I Admit I Fxcked Up 
But Everybody Fxck Up, Now This Other Nxgga Luck Up. 
__Weezy.


Honest answer........ GET YOURSELF TOGETHER. !  Theres only so many times someone can take the nonsense you put them through. You may really love them but you just don't care enough to keep their feelings into consideration. If its really that hard for you maybe it is best for you to stay single. But just know once you slip up someone else is running to take your place.
YOU MAY HAVE BEEN GOOD BUT THERES ALWAYS BETTER
 ...just remember that. !
