KiD CuDi ft. Chip the Ripper “Hyyerr”

I remember first hearing about KiD CuDi a few years ago as being one of the next rappers to be on the lookout for. Initially I wasn’t really that impressed with his music and the first time I listened to his album I instantly deleted it off my computer. I kept reading rave reviews of his music so I gave it another shot and I have to admit I was wrong. He definitely is talented and has a knack for song making. While he won’t make everyone a fan I definitely understand why people like his music. “Hyyerr” featuring Chip the Ripper is one of my favorite songs on his album “Man on the Moon: The End of Day”. It has a real mellow vibe and its real carefree. Take a listen and enjoy your upcoming weekend.

“One important key to success is self-confidence. An important key to self-confidence is preparation.”

          Have you ever noticed that most successful people exude a certain level of confidence which can sometimes be seen as arrogance to those that have no sense of a great work ethic and preparation?  I use to share this sentiment towards my now favorite basketball player Kobe Bryant, until I heard and read about his work ethic and preparation which allowed me to understand where his confidence was derived from which I had previously mistaken for arrogance.  YPs Kobe Bryant exudes confidence because of his second to none preparation in perfecting his craft.  Think about it for a second, when you study/prepare for a test you are a lot more confident (not arrogant) about taking and passing that test and not surprised when you pass the test.  YPs, preparation is the key element that provides/creates the confidence in people to become successful people. 

Be Prepared.  Be Confident.  Be Successful.

Snoop Dogg ft. Jazmine Sullivan “Different Languages”

I have never been a big Snoop Dogg fan, but it is hard to ignore his 10th album to date, Malice n Wonderland. It has some very good songs that I enjoy which include, “Gansta Luv” ft. The Dream, “Pimpin Aint EZ” ft. R. Kelly, and “Special” ft. Brandy and Pharrell. But my favorite track on the album is “Different Languages” ft. Jazmine Sullivan.

When I first heard the song “Different Languages”, it instantly became one of my favorite songs at the moment. It has a great vibe to it, that puts you in a real pleasant place. If u get a chance check out the album, but definitely give this song a listen. Enjoy!
