The next r & b artist

BJ the Chicago Kid!!! this dude is serious.... he has an amazing voice, and based off of only one of his original compositions has the potential to be a fresh new face in the R&B game!

His cover of Sam Cooke's "A Change is Gonna Come"

and an intro into his website and name "here"

long ass day in eugene

Every time i have ventured down into Eugene i seem to not have a good time. But the cycle has been broken!! Even though i was enduring some 14 hours of training on a solid 3 hours of sleep, i have found the real reason i enjoy Eugene.... The food!!! today i went to an amazing resturaunt called Sweet Basil. It is a Thai resturaunt that still puts out amazing food in a flash. The kitchen was in plain sight, and featured a two person rotation on the grills cooking up some seroius treats. I got a fat, flour noodle dish with fried tofu, lettuce, bean sprouts, broccoli, carrot and an amazing peanut sauce!!!! so good and as much as i cant afford it, i really want to go back tomorrow....

no new music, no new clothes, but a new perspective on how far i can go....... and the things that can be rexamined to reveal an amazing new discovery.

GAMMA RAYS VOL. 1

My new mixtape is here!!!!!! 

Its called Gamma Rays  vol. 1; spread the word!!

It is an eclectic blend of music, 

but a taste of what i have been listening to within the last few days. Let me know if you have any new songs, cds or artists that i need to listen to.

For those of you who love soulful music, check out BJ the Chicago Kid. I just listened to a cover of him singing Sam

 Cooke's "A Change is Gonna Come," and I am blown away.... beautiful check the link after the jump

There is a huge movement in hip-hop, the revitalization of old school style and old school drum kits. The most prominent e

xamples are the Cool Kids, but there seems to be more than just one group like that. I just checked out the new Pacific Division track called Mayor

They bring the heat on this track so check it out!

Fashion

Even though I have next to nothing for money i still love expensive, limited edition street wear brands, and i just took a look at Supreme's new line up.... check it out here

Much love, let me know how it is going!

New Music!

If I ever get time, i am looking to start posting my own weekly playlists packed up nice and neat for you followers..... so be on the ready for that. 

In case you have missed it, there has been some rad television lately! just got done watching demitri martin's new show and it is awesome.... pretty much it covers ways that everyday things can be altered to create something new. super rad. also flight of the conchords is back and better than ever featuring songs like "sugalumps." super funny... check out the clip

also i came across my dream car..... looks a little something like this

one love, and stay up on that mixtape!!!

ryan leslie!

for those of you who have yet to pick up the new Ryan Leslie CD..... do yourself a favor! The kid is an amazing pianist, singer, writer, producer, and overall an amazing musician, and i cant think of a better clip to show than this one here

After a few clips, you get the feeling that he is really a very talented person regardless of his musical style anyone who appreciates how hard he works! The best songs on his album proceed like this:

1. Gibberish

2. How It's Supposed to be

3. Addiction

4. Valentine

5. Wanna Be Good

but the rest of the cd is stupid good. 

[note: if you dont know how to torrent, dont worry, i will be posting some singles and bits and pieces that i find on the interweb.]
