aren't these dope? the guy who runs the organization actually came and spoke to my class today. he showed us a slide show of murals that they did. here are some quotes from the murals that i couldn't find online:

See me how i see you, Beautiful.
Give and take, want and need, by and by or bye bye.
Holler and hear my heart, beat.
Look, look, look, look. as long as it's at me.
I'll stay on point for life.
If you were here, I'd be home now.
Meet me at 52nd, if only for fifty seconds.
i miss you too often not to love you.
I had a nice dream about us.
Open your eyes, i see the sunrise
Picture you, picture me, picture this, a picture of us.
Remember the good.

I really want to take a day or two and go all around west philly and see these murals. if you're ever in philly and want to see these specific murals, here are the locations. There are murals everywhere you turn in philly, even when you walk out from your apartment, but these are too too too crucial to pass up. Date, anyone?

How I got over



You KNOW how much I love The Roots.

FML.

final vibe-rapradar.cocm

If you haven't heard by now, i'm sorry to be the first one to let you know.
Vibe Magazine closed it's doors today.

Saying that just hurts my heart.

If you know me, you knew that this is where i was suppose to be.

damn, damn, damn!

This would have been the last cover if they had decided to publish it.
But I don't think they're releasing it.

I found this out, the way i find everything, on twitter.

Questlove from the Roots crew was going in.

"damn.

i dont know how to react to this vibe thing being over. i purchased every issue since its inception. i was proud of it actually. it wasn't like rolling stone was going to put wesley snipes or dangelo on the cover. and it was miles above the right on!/black beat generation my sister handed me down."

read the rest here.


I wonder what Danyel Smith is going through.

This album is about to be a classic. Well, to me at least.
