New music...

About two to three times a week I will go on the website I go on to download new music it's called hotnewhiphop.com the past few times Iv been on it their hasn't been any new music! I will just go on there and download a mixtape or two each time from top rappers or up and coming rappers. I listen to music with almost everything I do and I don't mind to listening to some older stuff but it's always nice to have a new sound! The most recent mixtape I got off of there is FreeBase by 2chainz it's a good mixtape and has a lot of bass so I really like if cause when I listen to my rap I like a lot of bass in it!!

School Coming To A End

Now that school is ending we don't do anything in school! In most classes all we do is work on our finals review! And because it is the second semester and teachers are just ready for summer even more than students are so they don't feel like giving out a hard final so most of the teachers either aren't giving a final or they are giving a super super easy final! I think out of my six actual class because two are football I think out of my six I only have 3 finals and they are suppose to be super super easy! I'd say we started toning down school work about 3-4 weeks ago and now it's down to about non haha

Snoop Dogg

Today we watched a documentary called "Reincarnated" about snoop dogg making his album in Jamaica! He is a very talented musician, honestly though I don't know how he even functions! He smokes marijuana all the time! It is ridiculous. I don't know how he functions on everyday tasks In this video I don't think I have seen him not smoking one time! Through is documentary I have noticed that smoking in Jamaica is different then the way people do it in America! I'm Jamaica it's like a sacred thing people do and here it is like just something people do!

Cell phone policy

Last class we listened to the Fugees! They were very good and I was going to do a while blog on them but due to our school knew intense phone policy I was not allowed to blog at the end of class and I forgot to when I got home and now it would be as elaborate and detailed. So really this blog is speaking on the topic of how not being able to use our phones in class can actually impair our learning by not being able to use our resources at the tips of our fingers for calculations, scheduling, and research!

How times change

Times change and things change! But today we spoke on musicians disappearing and theaters going away! I don't ever think musicians will go away but I do think theaters will but not anytime soon. Musicians can't disappear because music will always be around to many people enjoy music to have music go away music has been around as long as humans have just in different forms. Theaters will eventually fade away because of all the streaming devices and illegal downloads. I don't think it will happen in my life time because of all the advertising on radio, tv, and enternet people will always be excited and hyped to go seem a new movie.

Testing

Testing!! Wow I feel like in the past 3 days all I have done is test! Yeah Iv only taken two test but on Saturday I took the SAT and today I took the STAAR! I will say the SAT wasn't as strenuous as I thought it would be! I feel like I did pretty good. But Today taking the STAAR! Oh gosh that wasn't very hard since it was US history but it was a lot of stuff we didn't even study! If was a lot of present day stuff and a lot of 2000 and up stuff. Were we spent the whole school year studying stuff dating back go the revolution! But at the end of the day I'm glad that is the only STAAR I have to take this year and I feel like I did good!

Special places

In the movie we watched today one of the biggest  things I noticed that was easy for me to connect to stuff I am greatly involved in is how there can be a special curtain place that produces some type of people! To me that is like athletes! If you think about sports and especially football you think about Texas, Florida, California, and Ohio. Florida and California are known for producing really speedy fast guys! When I think of Florida I think of speedy guys but also the type of football player that just gets after it, that hungry desire. When I think bout Ohio I think if big linebackers! And to me Texas I think about great running backs and secondary players! And massive offensive linemen. That is how I related it to this move where that one place in Alabama would produce so many good musicians when they would go down there.

Flappy Golf

Mother hot game on the App Store! Flappy golf is so much fun!! I just downloaded it this morning in my free time in class. It's so fun it is almost like each level is a obstacle course and you have a limited amount of time to tap the screen to maneuver it through the course and you can make it go up, down, left, and right just by the way you tap on the screen. If you do if in the fewest amount of times listed you get a gold star and the next is a silver and then a bronze.  Once you get to the father levels you can go through things and if displaces you on different parts of the course  and you can get stuck to to the wall making it to where you have to maneuver around stuff

My ACL opinion

I personally don't care about ACL! I know a lot of people love if because of all the music and people that go. I know people have a good time and listen to music all day. But I can't do it. I love music and listen to it all the time but all the people it's just too much for me! All the crowds would make me feel clousterphobic! I don't mind big crowds when I'm not a part of them! Like when I'm playing a sporting even like football or basketball I love having huge crowds watch me but I don't like being a part of them! And a lot of kids do things they shouldn't do while they are there and I can honestly say I have never smoked, don't drink, and have no interest in doing those things and other things kids take part in!

Movie in class

Today we watched a movie called "Art of Rap" it was a very good movie! A lot of people think art is just something you do on paper or sculpt ! But art comes In many different forms. And one they many people wouldn't think to classify as art would be Rap but if you really look at rap and how it is done! Especially back in the day before they had all the different things to work with! They where true vocal artist! To be able to come up with so many similes and metaphors yeah people and sit there and write them down. But to be able to do it on your head and then have them rhymes that is a Art!!!!

2048

2048 is so addicting! For the longest time I thought it was the dumbest game ever you just swiped numbers left, right, up and down just trying to get one that adds up to the number 2048. For the past month all of my friends had been playing it but I never really paid attention to how the where playing it. Today when I was in Bio Tech one of my friends was playing it and I asked them how you played it and they explained it so I downloaded it since it is free, I haven't stopped playing it all day haha. It's do addicting iv yet to beat it but I will soon!! If you enjoy playing games on your phone I suggest it!

What where we listening to

So yesterday in class we listened to this album, the very first song was a song I have heard before. Won't say it is a song I listen to but it is a well known song so I was aware of it when I heard it. The rest of the album was terrible! It was literally just people yelling into the microphone and people just trying to play instruments as loud as they could! I don't get why people enjoy that type of music. I say that but people could ask me the same question about my music. There where times I would zone out and not be hearing it and then I would tune back in and be like oh my gosh what the heck am I listening to!!

Biggie and Pac

Biggie and Pac was a good documentary! It really is a shame they had to get killed over they're rivalry! They started out as great friends but got caught up in the music industry and when it went bad it went real bad! If they hadn't have been killed I think the music game woulda been completely different right now. I think they would still run the game and be the kings of there style still. If they are still listened to every single day when they have been dead for over a decade think what it would be like if they where still alive! I personally think the reason why they got so mad at each other an went at it is because of the agents who egged it on and provoking it to happen! Pac listened go the outside world and bought into the theory of biggies boys killin Pac.

fading careers

More times than not at the end of your career you fade away from peek performance with the rare case of those who walk away from what they are doing when they are on the top. Personally to me I have witnessed it the most in sports due to the fact that I have paid the most attention to sports specifically football, basketball, and baseball due to sports center. Guys like Bo Jackson who where at they're best. Got hurt and came back, still very good but faded by his retirement. Michael Jordan won three championships, went to baseball, came back won 3 more then retired. But came out to make a come back still very good was no where close to what he was in his prime. It happens a lot and to most of us where we fade as our careers at what we do come to a close.

Hair Metal

Oh my goodness... Hair metal set a new standard for me when it come to how back music can be! Haha I know some people enjoy it, but how that's what I don't know! And to think about the way the dressed and tried to come across as girls. That is somebodies child out there making a fool for they're last name I know if I did something that stupid! My father would peel the skin off of my back! And tell me if imma do something like that I better change my last name! And I agree i don't know what makes people think that shit was good! They need a reality check!

Kids On Tv

When kids more specifically teenagers are on television they always look so much older! With the exception of a few! The only one I have seen that is visibly younger looking than her true age is Sarah Hyland who stars on Modern Family! But other than that I feel like most of them look older! Like in a Two a Half Men episode from back in 2004 Megan Fox was in it and at the time she was only 17 years old and my goodness she was gorgeous she already looked like a grown woman in her 20's!! When you watch a movie and it is suppose to take place at like a high school or something all the kids look like they are about 20 years old no matter what grade they are suppose to be in.

Ice JJ Fish

Ice JJ Fish is so bad!! It's crazy that he became famous off of that haha. He is so bad and his song "On The Floor" the girl in that video is so bad!! (As in very good) but he is literally the worst musician I have ever heard in my life! And it's really funny because he thinks he is super good! Yet he is the worst singer ever! And it's funny because he is like famous now he has over 15 million view on that video and is verified on twitter with like 134,000 followers! You should go on YouTube and watch the covers he did of his other songs also!

Back Ground Singers

Listening to all those background singers was phenomenal! It was very cool to get the perspective and view from people who where known and popular but not the main person within the group was very cool to see! They all had amazing voices and if hit it at the right time and done it right they could have all been lead singers due to how good they're voices are in my opinion! I do enjoy listening To Luther Vandross, Al Green, and people like that! And it's cool to hear them sing and now kind of feel like I know who it is and not just a random voice in the background!

Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson is a super star!!! Even dead he is still talked about all the time! He revolutionized the game!!!! He was able to sing. But not only sing but dance like no one ever before! I love listening to his music! He was able to sing in so many different sounds and styles. It's a shame he had to die! He was bout to make a come back too! When him and the Jackson 5 did they're thing they where killin the game! (As in nobody could mess with them) they where so freakin good! The musical legacy the Jackson family has. Especially Michael of course is ridiculous. And he back ground music he has to go along with his singing just makes his songs that much better! R.I.P. Michael Jackson

SXSW

Going to big music events such as sxsw or ACL is nothing I have anything to do with and didn't plan on doing anything with sxsw this year! But funny story my mom works at a salon in the arboritum called Aziz and they got a call from Snoop Dogg's manager saying snoop wanted a mannicure and a pedicure! So they sent my mom to his hotel. And while she was doing a his nails and talking to him and his manager snoop was like yeah I'm doing a little show tonight your son can bring whom ever he'd like. So that night my friend and I went down to this little venue and snoops manager got us in. Because it was just a little show snoop ended up canceling but ASAP Mob did a show which consist of ASAP Rocky, ASAP Ferg, and ASAP12. They did a good show and yeah was my concert experience! The only down side to it is that it was a indoor/outdoor venue so people could smoke cigarettes so it ricked not only of pop but cigaret!!
