Where did our youth go???

 

Just having a friendly FB convo with this guy...

 

and he gave me a lil surprise... a real answer to a simple question:

"everything lol
lets start with what inspires you =]"

"im inspired by where im from.

my family.
i believe everyone has something to
say.
i just want my word out.
my perspective.
im inspired by reality.
im attracted to real.
real people.
real feelings.
real life.
i never wanna go commercial and have this video
with stunt money everywhere.
our vision, WIYF, is just to live comfortably
and for the people that struggled for us to be able to live the
same way.
no leers or big body half a million dollar cars.
just a nice condo. reliable whip. and some second hand money.
at the end of the day i wanna look my mom in the face
and say "Look mama, no hands"

 To say the least, I was not expecting any of this. Just a short "Life" or something that would potentially end the convo. But what a pleasant surprise! And an honest one at that.

His group...

So no.. he is not on my blog because he didn't bore me to death, his style is pretty Fresh and I can't smell his breath, but because his music is actually really good, his vibe is great and its always a pleasant life surprise to stumble across something worth stumbling across.

That catches your eye and seems to alter your view on life a bit.

Do we all want to be RICH?

Or live comfortably as well as the people around us and be able to buy what we want without the extended price tag of excessive luxury.

Mo' Money Mo' Problems

Yes, I would love to buy everything and anything I want, but my goal is to become SUCCESSFUL, stay HAPPY and never be CONTENT.

WYCLEF FOR PRESIDENT: Huh?

Wyclef has announced Tuesday that he will be running for President of his native land, HAITI.

Not only has he been an endorsor of Haiti but he is constantly giving back to the land he is from and is very popular amoung his people.

BUT... (you knew it was coming), can this Black Eyed Peas, producer, singer, song writer really become a president?

Yes, he is smart, well endowed ($$$), has great commercials and has connections, but can he be the "Obama" of Haiti?
Can Wyclef do all that he says can be done and turn the abandoned country of Haiti to what it could, should and would be?

Only time will tell, and who can be a judge? Another black man trying his best to improve the garbage like predicaments around him.

Hopefully after René Préval Wyclef will be a successful youthful president ! they might evenhave a new anthem! Ft Black Eyed Peas...
Just talk.

I just have one last thought...
Is he going to keep throwing free concerts until his country can see the light??

The beloved lip ring I got on a whim and decided to keep in is officially out.


Im only blogging this detailed moment in my life because I got the lip ring when
I went through a change. Im not talking about a sex change or anything drastic, nasty !
(Mortified Gasp Here)
But a change through my personality.
And what all facial piercings seem to say, "I Don't give a flying F@#?!"
Mine said twice over and translated into all languages.
My mom hated it and some of my friends stayed quiet about it, but I got it for me.
An individualized statement because Im always constantly, changing... progressing.


How the hell ever, when I got the actual lip ring hoop, it got more attention than me
and if you don't know my face is not competing with a foreign object,
ESPECIALLY when my eyes get most of the attention.


HOW DARE the lip ring!!!
That BTW was Strike 1


I did not take it out on purpose.
-_- So that I feel bad about.... eh not really.
To be funky, it was about that time, in the words of Young Jeezy.


But the scenario is, I was scarfing down food as I usually do because Im always in a rush these days  or just hungry as I always am it came out and I chewed so hard on it.
I spit it out and left it on the counter on the way somewhere else.
(Out and About 24/7)
It's funny I feel like it was a decoration I can easily make up for by adding another bangle to my set.
My lip ring is a reflection of a crazy phrase I went through my second semester, my first year in college.


If you can believe my second semester was harder to adjust to then my first.
Not until I decide to change my hair color, style or some other aspect of me that can not be easily reveresed.
This is lipringless me, Nik_gold
Until I say otherwise
:D

"Pretty Girl... Lip Ring?"

::It is said, Liya was having too much fun rolling around between shots... 

I would have too!!

BTW Love seeing brown faces on covers, even if it is INTERNATIONAL =]
