tea subbing

spotted this gem over at bbc blog and i just had to post it up since its so cool looking. just add tea to the sub and drop it in your cup, genius.

this a chance in a lifetime i gotta think ahead

was not even expecting a video for this song but i love the song so check it out.

pac for life

My loyalty is to Wayne, and that goes for anybody who genuinely believes in me. We don't have the most personal relationship where we hang out every day or we talk that much, but Wayne's admiration and respect goes without being verbally said. He put his neck out there for me at a very early stage, and those actions tell me everything I need to know about how he feels about me as an artist.

that above quote by drake about wayne from his complex magazine interview reminded me of my relationship with holladay. although as of lately i may have a lot of things going outside of pacmann and what not my loyalty lies with the people who taught me everything i know about this industry and that is holladay/pacmann. pacmann is like family that may sound cliche or whatever but thats the truth and that'll never change thats why i love and appreciate it. thanks to all that have accepted me on holladays behalf (kajun, kianna, darryl, prada, and everybody else). you all have looked out for me on holladay's word alone and i thank yall for that. i'm forever in debt to holladay and all he's done and ever told me, thank you. 

so far gone

drake is on the cover of the new complex and the interview is a good look so check out some excerpts and the full interview here .

You feel like you're at the finish line?

Drake: I'm at the starting line. Those guys are at home, putting on their tracksuits, getting ready to make their attack. When J. Cole gets it super-right, I think he's gonna have a place as a Nas-type character who really stands for hip-hop, but still makes ill records that everybody fucks with.

If J. Cole is Nas, then who are you?

Drake: [Laughs.] I'm the young big homie!

Of all your contemporaries, it seems like you want to be famous the most.

Drake: That's gonna change. When Cole's sound is the new sound that everybody wants to hear, he's gonna be like, "I wanna be as big as possible with this shit." I didn't jeopardize anything to be in the position I'm in. You're listening to the shit that I believe in, not some shit I did because I needed to get here. People just happen to embrace my shit. That's very rare—but I also think the younger generation appreciates that brand of music, so I think it's possible for one of these guys to emerge and do exactly what I'm doing.

now let it all decease

on the illuminati business:

“I don’t know where it started. I don’t know where it came from. I really think it’s really silly. For the record, I of course believe in God, but I believe in one God. If people must know my religious beliefs, I believe in one God. I don’t believe in religion. I don’t believe in Christians or Muslims. I think all that separates people. I think it’s one God. I think it’s all the same God, and I don’t believe in Hell. But as far as God, of course I believe in God. Am I a part of some sect or cult? That sounds stupid to me. It’s like ignorant to even say, and umm… I guess that’ll be the last time I address that. It’s ignorant to me”

I can’t even get in a golf club in Palm Springs. I’m from Marcy Projects. Just think about that? People that control the world?

ms. good

meagan good is featured in the magazine, krave and as always she is gorgeous in these photos. growing up when i was getting into acting i looked up to meagan good but she never really expanded as a actress but behind the scenes she did so clap for her. i have met her on numerous occasions and its always love, she also gives great advice. more photos after the break.

“Haiti today faced a natural disaster of unprecedented proportion, an earthquake unlike anything the country has ever experienced. The magnitude 7.0 earthquake – and several very strong aftershocks – struck only 10 miles from Port-au-Prince.
