Fredrik - white on white

This is a three piece group from Malmo, Sweden. I as of recently came across them from a base jumping video in China. They've become so addicting to listen to. I even ordered an album from Music Trader, which had to be imported from Sweden. Have a listen.

Sommerrodelbahn, Austria

Stay Schemin Freestyle (Charlie Fettah & Big Will Streetz)

Okay, so this is a pure trip. I first heard this beat when Drake n Ross were over it. First and foremost I'll say that I'm not down with YMCMB. In my opinion Drakes verse was the best of the three. Anyways, I came across this. Nobody can deny this shit. Maybe its because I've never heard Fettah freestyle live. But this is straight up impressive.. And it's Winnipeg.

Don't tread on me

I'm Baaaaaaack! Don't gotta tell me I already know nobody missed me. Well guess what? A lot of shit has changed. My free lance is on a weak level but Im back. It's been a few Grippin Grains, few Hip Hop shows, and just a lot of bullshit. How you doing out there Willy? Holding it down? S/O to anybody still peeping this.

Checked out that Ill Bill show @ the Marquee recently. It was pretty cool. Opening were the Filthy Animals, along with Winnipeg's Most, and Swollen Members. It was an all around rad night.

Keep Pushing

It's been some time. I've got not much to say. Things are starting to happen so fast. This song underneath is mandatory for a couple minutes of thought, to yourself. Keep fighting, and keep pushing. Take care of each other.

Goodbye 14-890

Well, this is it. My last day in my apartment. Seems like the same thing the last few years. I find a place I like, but then after the lease goes up, I'm over it. Do you know that feeling?

I'm listening to Tracy Chapman right now. I woke up and started packing all of my stuff. Then I had to paint my bedroom. I know I'm not the only one moving on this day. Every ones leases go up one day. We had some good times in my place. A lot of great bike rides, walks, and back lane beers. All of the nights lighting candles, listening to Coldplay, having tokes, drinking cokes. I'm definitely going to miss it. I hope my next apartment is my last.. For one of the first times in my life I feel calm about all of this. I feel stronger. I really don't have much to say. Or at least as much as I thought I did.. By the time I write my next, I will be in a new apartment. Take care of each other.

What the #@!$ just happened

Crack Music

How we stop the black panthers?
Ronald Reagan cooked up an answer
You hear that?
What Jill Scott was hearin
When our heroes and heroines got hooked on heroin.
Crack raised the murder rate in DC and Maryland
We invested in that it's like we got Merril-Lynched
And we been hangin from the same tree ever since
Sometimes I feel the music is the only medicine
So we cook it, cut it, measure it, bag it,sell it
The fiends cop it
Nowadays they cant tell if that's that good shit
We ain't sure man
Put the CD on your tongue yeah, that's pure man.

Be Apart Of Something: They've Been Saying No For Too Long

Seconds to minutes, minutes to hours, hours to days, days to months. I'm doing this time with you, Carlo. Sometimes I feel guilty. I mean, I know im personally not neglecting you. But I could also do a better job coming to see you.. I can admit that. Things are changing in my life, and once you are back you will understand. You sound much happier, and I like that. We miss you, come home.

Keep your smiles on everyone. It's just not worth your time to give up. I ran into an old friend recently. We went to elementary school together. I saw him in the news paper last year for a cancer fundrasier. It has slipped my mind what I read, so I asked him. He told me he raised money for cancer by running from the Mexican border to Calgary. It took him roughly 9 months.. If you'd like to talk about passion, then here is your next example. Reuniting with my old friend replenished something inside of me. This man and his passion inspired me even more. We literally don't realize what we are capable of doing. We are smarter then we know, or maybe even want to know. Here's a formula:

- When you wake up everyday, no matter what you do. Remind yourself that your going to be ok. No matter what!! (TELL YOURSELF because nobody can ever take that freedom from you)
- If you break, and fall. Get back up, and push them until they can't push YOU any longer.
- If you feel like nobody knows how you feel, then please think of me and remind yourself that you're not alone in this persuit. We will find it...

There isn't much else to say today. This entire post is sincerely dedicated to a dude named Cole. I didn't tell you about my blog Cole, and you may not see this. However, I'm proud to say that your my friend. Remember to breathe.
