Cadillac's "WTF" FTW

First of all let me say I got this from common's blog. Secondly WTF stands for World Thorium Fuel which is the name of this Cadillac concept car. And I must say I hope Cadillac leads the way for American car makers that are still mostly releasing pick up trucks (oh yeah I forgot fuel efficient pick up trucks) The reason I believe the american car market is behind is not just fuel efficiency but the mass appeal of the car in the U.S. and across the world. Nobody's whipping pick up trucks like that. I know the market is in trouble and everything but when I get enough money to buy a car it's going to be a nissan 350z sorry the other cars just don't look as appealing. But anyways way to go Cadillac rumor is this car will be maintenance free for 100 years. Please enjoy this state of the art dopeness!

WHY I NEED TO GET OUT OF RICHMOND!!



Okay fam so I desperately need to get out of richmond at least for a little bit. I am a huge fan of architecture mixed with awesome nature. I have spent countless hours looking at it. This is the rock of gibraltar (at least that's what the description said) and the second one is a spa in mexico (again the description said so) okay it's beautiful right now phase over to richmond, VA land of grass and roadkill and oh wait tractor pulls GIT ER DONE! So last night I was looking up fun things to do in richmond. They suggested a art museum (which I've heard is thoroughly wack and half shutdown) and oh yes let's not forget the confederate white house (psst history lesson the confederates still wish I were a slave) and get this the top 10 fun things to do in richmond told me to go to Washington DC and North Carolina. EPIC FAIL RICHMOND EPIC FAIL! And of course some people say just go clubbin but I'd prefer not to get shot seeing as though plaxico burress and friends love to go the club with trackpants concealing uzzi's. anyways richmond is pretty boring. You remember that whole virginia is for lovers commercial .....false advertisement. welp I gotta get out of here fam. But until then please enjoy this aesthetic sense defying dopeness.

Two songs same message

Man this kind of coincides with the previous post but these are two songs I blast like everyday because I want it to be embedded into my very being. I want to be aware and active in the lives of those around me. I want to be really about helping and serving people and showing them Christ. Including you the person reading. Now some of you may say geez man you're going super Jesus on us. but I say I go "super Jesus" because the world (including myself) is "super jacked up." Anyways I like the first video by Marvin Gaye it sings about two questions not asked enough by humanity "what's going on" and "what's happening brother" what if we sincerely asked people this question. I feel sad because today I read that a man after losing his job killed himself his wife and 5 children. The last thing a person said to him before he snapped was something negative and sarcastic. Man what if those words were one of the phrases Marvin was singing about instead. Maybe they'd still be alive. You got power fam use it. Enjoy this socially aware dopeness






I can't wait till this comes out!!


Man I've been waiting for Hillsong to release this ever I got the Cd. This is what we are put on earth to do love God and love our neighbors. I firmly believe that we've been missing the mark as Christians for loving our neighbor and being Jesus to people. We've been od'ing on loving God and ignoring others (me included). Just watch this.  Also I will end this blog with a song by Leeland (I told you they were my new favorite band) called "Tears of the Saints"




Please be informed by this focus swerving pro active dopeness

OH SNAP THIS IS MY "DUKIE"!!

Okay so most people dont' know (and I just found out 2 days ago) that at the end of his life Duke Ellington returned to the devout Christian faith of his youth and felt God calling him to spend the rest of his life to use his talent to be His messenger to the wayward. And so the Duke did He wrote 3 sacred concert albums and those were the last works until he died. He described it as his most meaningful work in his life. Anyways I've been blasting the "second sacred concert" cd that he recorded with swedish singer Alice Babs. Here is some RAAAARE footage of the concerts. check it out.






Here is the song "Almighty God"


and here is the song Heaven (my favorite from the album)

HAPPY NEW YEAR HAPPY NEW SONG!!

HEEEEEEEY FAM! It's been a while hasn't it. Man I am a terrible blogger. I didn't wish you guys merry Christmas =0(    maaaaaaajor frown. Welp this will be sure to turn that major frown upside down. It's my new song "Sub-Aquatic After Life"It draws from various inspirations. I was watching a korean drama or movie actually and I loved the background music and I am a huuuge fan of clazziquai so I was thinking man I need a song like that in my repertoire and God gave me one because I'm on this music challenge with God where I just listen to music that speaks about Him and when I crave music instead of listening to it He said to just ask Him to create a song like the one I want with me. And this is the first result. I present to you your new favorite song. Please enjoy this bubbly sunshiney childlike dopeness

Peace and a half,
