Love is any of a number of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affections and attachments. (Wiki)

"Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove. O no, it is an ever fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wand'ring barque, Whose worth's unknown although his height be taken. Love's not time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come; Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom."
-Sonnet 116, Shakespeare

Well, the poet begins to come to the conclusion that love can shelter him. The conclusion he does come to in Sonnet 116 is that love, despite time, is a constant. Throughout history, poets, writers, artists, philosophers, and scientists have attempted to conceptualize love.

Unfortunately, love can become subjective in its definition from person to person. Maybe Sternberg, Hojjat, & Barnes’s (2001) said it best: love is a subjective story that is defined by the people who are involved, through the eyes of their history and how that history collides with today.

Love comes with obstacles, It really depends on what obstacles you are trying to overcome and if the person you love , loves you the same and is working toward the same goal you are.

BUT, love can overcome a lot but there are true differences, hardships, responsibilities, obligations, and values that can keep sincere love from growing or being pursued. Values constantly change in a lifetime. Sometimes love is just not enough , in my opinion, Love DOES NOT conquer all. The only love that prevails is your love of life.

RIP J dilla aka Jay Dee
February 7, 1974 – February 10, 2006



-Erykah Badu's album New Amerykah a song with Questlove as a tribute to Dilla titled "Telephone."

-Q-Tip's The Renaissance album "Life is Better" feat. Norah Jones. Listen to it.



No disrespect but big ups to DJ Premier, Pete Rock, Madlib, Peter Rosenberg, but J dilla is in my opinion one of the greatest producers ever. The beats he flows coming straight out of Jazz, Soul, and Funk and the amazing collaborations with Common, The Pharcyde, A Tribe Called Quest, Slum Village, etc..

Thank FUCKING God, Peter Rosenberg always plays J dilla's music during his sunday nights. PEOPLE SLEEP ON THIS MAN.

Rapping is something we do. Hip-hop is lived." -KRS-One

Hip-hop lovers. I went to Rock The Bells again, and out of all the big names who peformed, I was more prepared for SLUM VILLAGE. It sucks that they were on the small back stage, a group like them, needed to be heard on the big stage. As soon as the The Roots left, I jetted to the other stage and caught them right on time playing "Tainted", "Players", "Selfish", a "Do You" a J dilla tribute and even there new songs from their new coming album.

But I am pleased that I spent 97 bucks for these amazing artists and the special guests who came through to show the real hip-hop.

-Reflection Eternal (Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek), Common's "Testify", "Universal Mind Control", "Announcement"
- some great offenders ( Evidence & Alchemist, Cypress Hills, MOP, Sage Francis, Necro)
- Slaughterhouse- well, I am not a fan of Joel Ortiz but when Joe Budden peformed "Pump It Up", it was "aiiiiight".
- BIG BOI-peforming "Ms. Jackson", "The Way You Move", "Elevators", and the very special Purple Ribbon All-Stars "Kryptonite".
-Supernatural hosting and freestyling about any random object handed to him
-WUTANG - peforming their classics "C.R.E.A.M", to Ol' Dirty Bastard's "Shimmy Shimmy Ya", Raekwon's "Ice Cream", Mobb Deep with "Shook Ones" and of course, Method Man (i love you)
-NAS, with AZ, peforming The Firm's illest "Phone Tap"
-Damian Marley with the famous "Don't worry, Be Happy...=]", "Road To Zion"

oh and can somebody please let me know where the HELL was Ice Cube at?
"Today Was A Good Day" was definetely needed after hearing Tech N9ne o_0

Fear.

As Edgar Allen Poe said, "No person could be less liable than myself to be lef away from severe precincts of truth by the ignes fatui of superstition."

My perspectives has estranged me from any other regular 19 year olds. A contemplative turn of mind enabled me to sense falsities and look at things differently.

A world of uneasy curiosity, much fear and more respect were the most inseparable of companions. Fear has taken possession of my soul, a sensation which will never have a easy solution. I fear futurity itself will offer me no key. I'm not talking about fear of heights or being afraid of the dark, but fear of becoming someone I didn't expect to be. Truth is no one will never be satisfied with regard to the nature of conceptions. Even though fear is indefinite, a new entity is added to my soul. But I will not fail to take what poor advantage lay in my power.

Soldier.

Album of the day

Yeah, so what I was like 3 when this album dropped, but whateverrrrr.

Anyways, Friday night I went to the Brooklyn is Burning party at Alphabeta with my girls and a couple others. I got to admit it was pretty cool, the vibe was good and the performances were really off the hook..The party life I swear, it will never end.

School sucks, I've been late to my Algebra class this past weeks. KUDOS to the people who celebrate Roshashana because Monday-Wednesday we have no classes.

Presumably I will be working on those days off from school but hey as Biggie said, "commence to ass kickin".

Hangovers.

So it was quite an interesting Wednesday night I must say.

After a long day of work folding shirts and hanging up jackets I can't even reach, Ana invited me to one of our old classmate from high school birthday party. So, there I go relentless to have a couple shots so I can feel nice for bed. I was certainly wrong, lol after about 4 shots, grabbed 3 beers and had a couple hits of some buddha I started to feel the room spinning. I must admit I was feeling great making Ana, Remy and Lansky laugh at my dumb ass.

Then I realized that I didn't eat prior to the drinkage fest, then damn..I throw up (as usual) about 5 times, Ana took me home ran upstairs to throw up again then the next thing I know I wake up getting off the floor in my bathroom with my jacket still on, my messenger bag around my shoulder and my hair all over my face..Yes, I fell asleep in my bathroom after throwing up. Sighs, yeah so it was a crazy night.


Woke up with a hangover, my head pounding, liquor is definetely my number one nemesis. I think I will quit for a while. But I did enjoy myself, thanks Ana ! Cannot wait till tommorow for this loft party/lounge ! =D

till again, peace!

oh yeah by the way..BAMMM. =D
