Those who know me, know I am a die hard John Mayer fan. But what many do not know is that I love interior design. The new edition of Decor Magazine, has some pics of John’s SoHo Apartment. I must admit, I wasn’t too impressed and that makes me sad. I think Kanye West has […]

So the digital issue of URB magazine is out online today. Kid Cudi is on the cover and serves at the guest editor, a first for URB. Word is, the newstand version is out. I’ll have to check to see if that’s certain for the EastCoast as well.
For this quarter issue, I reviewed Poyser’s new […]

So these days, regular TV as we know it doesn’t offer us too much mental stimulation. So if you are in need of a dive, you should long onto Fora.tv. It’s a website for those who think.
Its packed with mental stimulation in the areas of culture, politics, religion, technology, and the environment. There are even […]

So I’ve come to the conclusion that I am infatuated with the concept and phenomena of “genius”. It may have a lot to do with why I love “GoodWill Hunting”, “A beautiful Mind” and the book “The madman and the professor so much”.
A few months ago, southPark joked about Kanye’s genius, but all this genius […]

The other night, my bud Terrence Cunningham and I, talked the night away about spirituality and books during my visit to DC. He has been reading some awesome and life changing ones, that has blessed him. And being the unselfish friend that he is, he put me on. The next morning for two hours, I […]

This past weekend, my buds and I, drove down to Pintops, North Carolina to 1) support our bud as he signed and promoted his book and 2) to support another friend who created an awesome organization to reach back to rural communities by uniting them and exposing them holistically.

The drive down was pretty long because […]

So one of my old housemates, Darryl, is a pretty awesome illustrator/comic book creator. Over these last few years, I have seen him grow so much. He’s also a pretty funny and interesting dude.
I stole some this sample below of his work from his flickr page so that I can show you his awesomeness. He […]

For the last two weeks, I have been introducing my students to poetry in the literacy class I teach in Queens. Yesterday, we did a two hour assignment on the book “My name is Jason…Mine Too”. The authors are good friends of mine, specifically one is one of my best friends. So it felt good […]

Ok so I really don’t know what the above title means exactly, but what I do know is that I’m a true believer that Books will never ever go out of style, no matter how many kindles or internets come along. And for that my future applauds.
This weekend I took a visit to Strand Bookstore […]

At times, I really hate posting videos here on the blog,but the ends does justify the means. This effort by Daniel Pink is simply brilliant. I am referring both to the commercial and the book concept!!!
The book has been out for almost a year, but hey better late that never. If you like manga and/or […]

About a year and a half ago, I was performing in DC and my buds, Bassey and E, visited me in my hotel room. We talked and then went down to grab something to eat. The whole time, I noticed that Bassey’s feet looked fly in these pumas. They just fit her feet well and […]

Its been almost almost 2 years since I’ve been out the country and I am fiending. The last time I went, I visited London by myself for 6 days and I am ready to do another international trip again. I found these old videos of the trip I posted on this blog back then. They […]

So its been almost two years since the release of my last album SICK. I think I’ve grown musically since then and also lyrically. Presently, TL Cross of Da Gutta Fam (BELOW) is mixing it for me and putting a few final production touches on the album. I cant wait to show it to everyone. […]

I don’t know what it is that makes this sort of exciting for me. Maybe its because I use to collect comic books when I was younger or because i know several of my friends who still do or because I love art or maybe its because this is a territory I have yet to […]

I’ve reviewed some interesting music this last week for URB. One surprised me, the other bought about some disappointment; however there is no doubt that both are talented. Take a read at Georgia Anne Muldrow’s Umsindo here and Johnny Polygon’s Group Hug here.

There is nothing like teaching and I am privileged to do it. This fall I will be teaching a course at York College in Queens within the History and PHilosophy department called Western Civilization. Its a look at the intellectual, religious, and philosophical influences on the building up of what we call the western world. […]

Well not really. But I did see an awesome mural of them (Run DMC of course) as I was strolling from a coffee shop in the Long Island City section of Queens.
