The NCAA Bracket Struggle

You decide to make a bracket...you're doing research on the teams and you're like...

Then you're done picking the games...you're sure you have all the picks right and you're like...

Then you picked your first upset game and then you're like...

But then one of your Sweet Sixteen teams goes out then you're like...

Then one of your Final Four teams loses and you're like...

Then you're bracket is completely done and you're gonna lose your pool and you're like...

My favorite country playa (read: plair) potna is back at it again.  The Country Sh*t MC Big K.R.I.T. dropped 4Eva N A Day, the follow up to 2011's Return of 4Eva.  More of the same from K.R.I.T. (in a good way though):  dope rhymes/metaphors, soulful beats with heavy oldies sampling, and his country slang, drawl, and flair.  It's the kind of project that makes you wish you had a '74 Impala dripping with candy paint to drive down the boulevard on a warm spring/summer night.  I just wish K.R.I.T. would hurry up and drop a full fledged album...I don't want him to use all of his good material up before he hits the mainstream.  I really want him to have longevity...he's earned it.

Lil B is back with more based music with God's Father, a super mixtape (34 full tracks) full of pretty solid beats and slightly off-rhythm lyrics.  Ok...sometimes REALLY off-rhythm lyrics.  The man knows his lane and has a pretty big following.  If you don't know anything about Lil B just know he's all about positivity, having a good time, and making music for ignant cats like myself to cook to (SWACK).  If you're not a Lil B you might wanna pass but if you're based like me you GOTTA add this to your music collection.  TYBG

Hope you all can feed your iPods with these tunes....I know I've been jamming both of these in the headphone during late night Call of Duty stomp out sessions (PSN-Dubnificent in case you didn't know).  If I get quiet with the posts I'm letting you know why...I picked up the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection the other day.  Playing through MGS2 right now and it feels like high school all over again.   MGS has always been one of my favorite video game franchises.  People say that MGS3...MGS4 is my favorite but to be honest I never gave 3 it's fair shake.  Never actually had the game...or finished it 100% (don't judge me).  My pecking order might change after I get done with all of the games.  But this post isn't about video games it's about music...so go listen!!

What I'm Listening To: Cameo-Word Up

Further proof that I grew up in the wrong musical generation.  This song is happening next time I'm at karaoke

#KONY2012

Watched this video about Joseph Kony, leader of the LRA in Africa and the kidnapper and raper of many children in Uganda.  Vaguely remember hearing about this on the news last year but it looks like the power of the innanets is really behind this cause.  I know it's a 30 min video but take some time out to watch this.  It's about an plan of action to make this guy the most famous guy on Earth.  With that fame and awareness hopefully will make the world's governments pay attention and bring him to justice for his crimes.

It really makes me feel better to see YOUNG people really out and making a difference.  When you're in college everyone has this immense amount of energy and hopefulness to fix the problem they're passionate about.  But when you're out in the real world that interest seems to wane.  My usually cynical ass was actually inspired by this...definitely will do my part to help the cause.
