Generation X

You called us SLACKERS. You dismissed us as Generation X. Well move over, Were NOT what you thought.

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 !!

Same Jay Different Day

Hov at MSG doing his rendition of LL's "I Need Luv"

I dug up this video, simply because this is the epitome of an ARTIST. selling out Madison Square Garden. (Numerous Times) With hit after hits Though i love ALL of Jay's performances this one in particular is soooo Amazing & Mesmerizing !& it doesn't hurt he has the Queen of Hip-Hop & Soul holding down the stage with with him.(His career is so illustrious & his rep is not to be fxcked with). I SWEAR i can watch this man perform ALL day. He moves with such a demeanor .& calmness.You cant help but watch There will never be another HOV. so instead of downplaying how great of Musician this man is. How about we RESPECT it ! & appreciate it. We craved it, when we thought he was "retiring" so while he's in our presence lets savor the moment.
 Because there will never be another Hov. 
"
Shout out to those who bought the tickets to GO see this amazing man ! in March whether it'd be at
Madison Square Garden or Nassau Coliseum ENJOY ! :D 


One of the Best To Ever Do It" (c) Lexxie. 


( i could go on forever !) But ill save that for another time SO for now
enjoy the video guys !.

TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE ?!

Have You Ever Been Involved With Someone, .. 

Whether it be a relationship or just casually talking etc. where you guys would get to a point & everything was perfect !. & you would ask yourself . "What' s wrong with person ?!" or "Something has to be wrong" or even say to yourself "This is too perfect"

I feel like we let our past relationships & experiences corrupt us to a point where we expect the worst out of someone. 

Were suppose to learn from the past ! not let it jade us where were afraid of heart-ache & pain.. In retrospect We often wait for something to go wrong, & sometimes thats where problems tend to arise & develop because we go looking for trouble or flaw of some sort. 

Which I myself am guilty of 100% . 

BUT why must we question it ?!, & doubt something that is going in the right direction ?!.

 There can be infinite amount of possibilities why we people think this ..

1. Some do enjoy the drama, (sub-consciencely & consciencely )  

2.Others may  feel as though they don't deserve a "good thing" 

or 

3.EVEN to some its expected. ! 

Don't constantly question someone's intentions. 

( NO ! ) I'm not saying to be naive, but I am saying not everyone is the same & don't compare one person to a previous . Because not one person in this world is the same.  . Though we may share similar thoughts & traits, and personalities etc. "Were all cut from a different cloth" 

With that being said if you happen to find yourself in this sort of predicament 

REMEMBER ! Regardless of what steps you take heart ache is inevitable, there's no way of going about heartbreak. Its like death there's no way to cheat it .

SO go in with an open heart & bask in the moment. 

.

YOUR ARE ALLOWED TO BE HAPPY ! 

THE FUTURE OF RAP ?!

NOW IM SURE EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN OPINIONS ON WHO IS THE FUTURE OF RAP MUSIC. AS DO I .IN MY OWN OPINION I FEEL AS THE FUTURE FOR MUSIC IS AUBREY GRAHAM OTHERWISE KNOWN AS DRAKE. 

WHEN HIS NAME IS BROUGHT UP. THE RESPONSES THAT ARE OFTEN GIVEN IS HES "OVER-RATED" WHICH SOMETHING THAT I WILL NEVER FULLY UNDERSTAND. SIMPLY BECAUSE BEING KNOWN WORLD-WIDE IS WHAT ARTIST STRIVE FOR. FOR THEIR MUSIC TO BE HEARD BY EVERYONE. NOT JUST "THE HOOD" PER SAY SO FOR PEOPLE SAY THAT THEY DONT LISTEN TO A ARTIST ANYMORE BECAUSE NOW OTHER PEOPLE ARE AWARE THEIR TALENT IS SIMPLY FOOLISH. IF YOU NO LONGER WANT TO LISTEN TO AN ARTIST MAKE IT BECAUSE OF A VALID REASON NOT BECAUSE POP-CULTURE HAS BEEN EXPOSED TO THEM AS WELL.

WHICH BRINGS ME BACK TO DRAKE

. DRAKE IN MY OPINION IS ABSOLUTELY TALENTED !!  HIS AMBITION IS WILLINGNESS TO GRIND & POSSIBLY BECOME THE BEST IS INSPIRING. THE YOUNG MONEY/ CASH MONEY AFFILIATE  HAS STEPPED INTO HIS OWN.WHERE VETS. SUCH AS JAY-Z & KANYE WEST ARE GIVING CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE.HIS PUNCH LINES ARE CLEVER. & ANY HOOK HE JUMPS ON IS AN INSTANT HIT & (ADDING TO THAT HE SINGS AS WELL) & HIS STAGE PRESENCE IS CAPTIVATING. HE HAS A SLEW ! OF HITS. & HAS YET TO DROP HIS OWN ALBUM. HIS LYRICS ARE & WELL THOUGHT OUT.& HAVE SUBSTANCE.DRAKE HAS A WORLDWIDE APPEAL WHERE ANYONE CAN RELATE TO FROM LA, CALIFORNIA- NEWARK NJ. & BROOKLYN, NY CAN BUMP TO.HIS MIX-TAPE "SO FAR GONE" WILL FOREVER BE A CLASSIC. THAT MIX-TAPE ALONE WAS LIKE AN ALBUM. 

"DROPPED A MIXTAPE THAT SHXT SOUNDED LIKE AN ALBUM"- FOREVER

WHICH IS WHAT EXPOSED US & BROUGHT DRAKE TO THE SPOT-LIGHT. 

-IF I DIDNT SAY IT BEFORE ILL SAY NOW. !!

DRAKE IS AN AMAZING ARTIST & THIS JUST THE BEGINNING OF WHAT HAVE YET TO SEE FROM THIS YOUNG MAN.

IF THE TALENT IS UNDENIABLE THAN WHY DENY IT ?!

Revoke Your Player Cards. !

So I was downloading a ton of music to my computer, & fell upon

All Because Of You by Marques Houston,

which by the way is an absolutely amazing & cute songg.

Which got me thinking.

-Deep down the most sluttiest guys just want the one person to come home to.-

in essence ...

("Revoke they're player cards")

Its easyy to have a ton of girls to talk to & chill with but at the end of the day. Those 15 mins you spend with those girls. Amount to nothing in comparsion to the one special person you would rather spend your daysss with.

There can be a 2446745943 girls telling you the same thing over & over but at the end of the day when that 1 person tells you it . Its a completely different ball game.

Someone to tell you, i love you or missed you & really mean it.

Some one to tell you how much you mean to them & know that theyre being honest with you.

Someone to dedicate your time & effort to. & knowing that all cards are in.

Some to know who knows your goals. dreams. ambitons ( & supports you)

Someone who knows your flaws & ALL. & finds them cute /charming & the best part about you.

- When they walk into a room you see no1 but them . ! -

butterflies & All.

YES I MUST ADMITT THIS PERSON IS HARD TO FIND !

but if you happen to find this special person DONT them gooo. because chances are you wont find another. so hold onto em' tight. & never let goo. !

NOTE TO THE FELLAS : "Life isnt about getting love from a million girls; its about finding that ONE girl you can love a millions ways".

BOW WOW (GREENLIGHT MIXTAPE 2)

I will be the 1st to admit that i never really took Bow Wow's lyrical skills seriously. But after listening to this mixtape.in its entirety I will admit i was wrong, he has talent.I just saw him as just another young rapper riding on the coat tails of Shawn Carter, or Lil Wayne. But Mr.Shad Moss has come into his own, or maybe im just now realizing it.

None the less this a a well put together mixtape.

Young Money seriously has a mean roster ! Millz,Drake,Weezy,Bow,Shanell, Nicki.etc

Lipstick & Labels Approved !
