NO CEiLiNGS + ONE FOOT OUT THE DOOR
I'm sure yall know by now that, starting in February, Lil Wayne will be serving an 8 month jail sentence for possession of a weapon. I'm also sure that yall know he just put out a mixtape, one that was highly-anticipated by his heavy followers. AND this isn't even the full thing; Wayne's adding songs that he left off the mixtape soon..so it'll kinda be re-released. If you don't have this mixtape by now, what are you doing with your life?? Get on it.
DOWNLOAD: Lil Wayne => "No Ceilings" Mixtape
Mike Posner is somebody that I definitely had to get used to. His voice is very different but his sound is crazily unique. I digg his music & how good it is can NOT be denied. This mixtape is dope. Features appearances from KiD CuDi, Bun B, Big Sean, GLC, 3Oh!3, XV & more. Get on it.

Must-Have Mixtapes of [Around] This Year
With the heavy anticipation of Lil Wayne's upcoming mixtape, "No Ceilings," I decided it'd be best for yall to get a number of other pretty good mixtapes.

AiR JORDAN Xii RETRO => RiSiNG SUN [Release Date Update]
These were SUPPOSED to drop this past Saturday but they were recalled because the insole featured a picture of the Nisshoki, which is the Japanese rising sun flag. This was offensive to a number of Japanese people [where Jordan Brand is widely popular] so JB decided to make some changes. However, a release dte has been finalizing for these kicks & that date is NOVEMBER 21ST. So if these Xii's were on your wishlist, you now have a date for them. Fresh!
NiKE SB DUNK LOW PREMiUM => UN-HEMP
These should definitely be a hot one for the SB heads out there. They're part of November's lineup of SBs so look out for these at your local SB retailer. Fresh!

What's GOOD world?!?!?! It's been SOOOOOOO long since I last posted anything =/ [13days to be exact..that's long for me]. But I'm back for now with some new ishh for yall.
Since I've been away so long, I decided to give two great quotes from the same person. They FOCUS on directing your focus on the things you want & goals you aspire to achieve. If you want something, you gotta go for it.
“One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.”
“It's not what's happening to you now or what has happened in your past that determines who you become. Rather, it's your decisions about what to focus on, what things mean to you, and what you're going to do about them that will determine your ultimate destiny.”
~Anthony Robbins~

What's good world? Hope everything is going well for everybody..it's a new day of a new week so just do what you gotta do to make your days better.
These 1st two years of college have been a rollercoaster ride & more for me..but I'm finding myself grounded more & more as time passes & it's a good feeling because I'm getting more in-tune with myself as a man, a person, & a student. I'm taking this time as a fresh start for me..because it isn't to late to improve on yourself..it's never too late. We, as people, always fall down. I CHOOSE NOT to stay down.
