PEACE To The GODS

SHING SHING REGIME...That's the name of this ill hiphop group hailing from Steel City aka Hamilton......ya'll may think i'm biased cuz these dudes are my boys....but nah they really & truly got talent and the extra bonus which most music lacks is these GODS got SUBSTANCE!!!!!!! They ain't talking about money, sex, drugs...they exposin' the TRUTH....the sh*t that the Youth dem need to hear more than ever...........and they ain't coming like the typical 'conscious' rap...they actually got alot of hood testosterone going while keeping it balance with the science...With the Wu Influence you can't go wrong!........They should appeal to people that wanna hear something "hard" as opposed to the typical Common, Mos Def type stuff....Whatever ur preference ya'll can't deny these dudes are coming nice with it. So with out any more yappin check 'em out.....

Well if you we not gettin' it on, out to dinner or doing some other shieeet....then you must have been watching the NBA All Star DUNK OFF....oh yeah and the three point shoot out..and the other two worthless competitions....lol....I must say this was a night of the Underdogs......I like to consider myself an UNDERDOG as well...so I'm always rootin'...............I liked how the dunk off was neck & neck...until Nate just blew Howard outta left field....it must be the Greeeeen!


(this pic is not a good depiction of what happened...lol!)

Anyway, it just got me thinking of the past dunk offs...like 5 yrs ago, oh shit actually since Vince murdered the competition, so the last like 8 yrs aka the good ol' days...maaan is it just me or is shit just getting extra with no substance?!? does that make sense?.....aaaah lets just take a brief walk down memory lane...

Before I begin we got the obvious..Bryant, Carter, Michael, My fav Wilkins, Kemp etc...but I thought I'd bring back the ones we may have forgotten......My philosophy is K.I.S.S. (keep it simple stupid!)

SOULJAH Born

Erykah & Jay Electronica brought forth a baby girl on Feb 1st, 2009 named MARS MERKABA....I am OH SO excited because not only is there daughter a AQUARIAN...She's gonna have a Mother GODDESS!!! I'm not really familiar with Jay Electronica's mind state and views on things....but I can get with some of his tracks and it seems like he's not just talkin' junk.....plus if Erykah is gonna settle down I'm sure she would choose a Wise King! I've been hearing alot of controversy from the time she announced her pregnancy due to the fact that she now has 3 baby dads....I personally support her 100 percent.....Nobody chooses to have baby fathers......shit happens, things fall apart..and you keep it movin'....which is what I think she is doing.....So all power to ERYKAH!!!
Stay Golden!

She had responded to the critics with this.........

“How dare you disrespect the queendom…and my children and my intelligence. I’ve never been so disgusted in all of my life. I am a great mother and caregiver to my two children, and to this world. My children are two of the kindest and happiest people I have met … I am their doctor and their nurse, and even sometimes their mother and their father. I am an excellent mother and resent all of the negative comments and insults on my character.”

I was also interested in the meaning behind the choice of name and when I researched MERKABA the word Merkaba refers to a "divine light vehicle allegedly used by ascended masers to connect with and reach those in tune with the higher realms." The vehicle is described as a kind of three-dimensional Star of David that "transports spirit/body from one dimension to another." In the bible, Merkaba is described as a chariot made of angels with four wings and four faces that represent the four directions and take the form of a man, a lion, an ox and an eagle. This all made sense to me once I learned the meaning.........Badu is definitely someone who can lead by example....and guide lost souls!

(One of my fav pics taken in Ms.Badu's NY Apartment...her very fist place that she still holds down to this day! Now that's real!)

BTW Erykah's New Album is set to release in March '09...'NEW AMERYKAH: The Return of the Ankh'......I'm crazy excited! and she's droppin' a third...maybe late '09 called 'LOWDOWN LORETTA BROWN' Woo hooooo! I can't wait!

Sorry for the long post.......shieeet I had alot to say!

PEACE & LOVE

Unknown MOOR?!?

I thought this was mad interesting....I knew JIGGA is a VERY INTELLIGENT Brother...but I really didn't know he knew the HISTORY.....I mean not many people know about the MOORS...so this really caught me by surprise....I'm not sure if he knows the complete science....But these pics show a different side for real! It also might have something to do with his charity work...But I have a feeling he knows something that the average person doesn't now...Keep that 3rd Eye Open Hov!










I got this info from a WISE Brother named BROOKLYN INTELLIGENCE..,this is what he had to say about it.........


"DO NOT look up to celebrities to wake our people up. Even though they could wake up our people over night. BE your individual leader. Let them deal with their choices, karma and conscience. Those of you who listen to his music pay attention to his lyrics and clothing. His next album is called Blueprint III. Who uses a blueprint to build? What is the third level of the degrees 1-3 called?"

I completely agree....I can navigate...but Seek Your Own Truth!
By the way I have been pumpin' this New Hov track like crazy...it's been on rotation like 20 times a day on my travels to work and school....BIIIIIIIGGG TUNE!

Jay-Z - When The Money Goes


Blessings!

FOLLOW Your PURPOSE!!!

So my Boy LYVE hit me up on this one.....GOOD Lookin' Out! Hail up! Hail up! GOD MC KRS ONE....He's been putting the youth dem on some science and he's still bringing it! I think he nailed it when he says "What we need to do is follow our purpose..." I mean at the end of the day all of this is an illusion and we have a bigger picture to deal with which is more times spiritual.............On the real ya'll must be tired of hearing about Obama period...well atleast I am....But I don't know my being my intuition my logics...tell me to keep navigating the people towards the REAL..........................

Hope ya'll took the time to watch this....even if you support Obama it doesn't hurt to see the other side of the coin.............

SHED LOVE!

SMASHED

Tired, Sleepy, Party'd out.........Had my birthday weekend celebrations....I am not how I used to be......espacially with the responsiblity of a child...I don't think I can party like I used to......daaaang I realized I'd rather chill at a crib with a few friends and build on some science than go out to a club....I mean the music was good....but I did mix drinks and end up throwing up in the washroom.....lmao! But i do know now what I like and dislike.................This week is hectic...I apologize ahead of time for the lack of posts!

PEACE
