What do you think-Succesful by Drake

i want the money,
Money and the cars,
Cars and the clothes,
The hoes,
I suppose,
I just wanna be,
I just wanna be successful.
I just wanna be,
I just wanna be successful.
I just wanna be,
I just wanna be successful.-succesful by drake ft trey songz

With Drake being my favorite Artist once again i was listening to one of his songz and it gave me an idea for the Blog. Successful by drake ft Trey Songz is What most people think success is, Money, Cars, Clothes, and don't forget about the Hoes. In the song Drake makes direct Quotes on how he feels success really is.

"Take my verses too serious ya hate me,
Cause im the one to paint a vivid picture no HD,
Yeah,
I want it all,
That's why I strive for it,
Dis me and you'll never hear a reply for it,
Any awards show or party I get fly for it,
I know that it's comin' I just hope that I'm alive for it."

To me Success is different for everbody. I don't need hoes to be successful. Cars and clothes don't define a person's success either. But what does? what makes you feel successful? Is it people knowing your name? Is it signing autographs? Is it girls texting you at all hours of the night? What makes you successful??

Little Bit-drake

"I think I'm a little bit
Little bit
A little bit in love with you
But only if you're a little bit
Little bit
Little bit
In lalalala love with me"
These lyrics were taken from a song i just recently heard by my favorite artist Drake. The song describes how he feels about a girl he claims he is just "a little bit" on love with. He also claims that he only loves her if she loves him. To me Love is such a tricky thing. How do you know if it's real love? if you love some one do you agree wit everything they say? Can you argue with someone one you love? Drake also states in another song
"I drove nice cars
I got a nice house
But now im steady missing you like a strikeout
I always wished i would of cared more
Thats my only feeling inside when ever i get a song done
Im scared that every girl i care for
Will find a better man and end up happier in the long run
Ya, and when she not by my side
And i hear that she gone
Now its like a shock to my pride
I dont care if she know
Cuz thats basically just a male ego
Speaking aloud to some real people
But you can bounce back
Go ladies,
More records, more sex, more babies
Yeah, wanna grant one of my wishes
Tired missing you, I'm tryna make you a misses"
What is love?? Is love Sexual? is Love pure? Does love make mistakes? Is love perfect?

Best I Ever Had- Drake

"Sweat pants, hair tied, chillin' with no make-up on
That's when you're the prettiest, I hope that you don't take it wrong
You don't even trip when friends say you ain't bringin' Drake along
You know that I'm working, I'll be there soon as I make it home"
This is a verse written by Drake a rapper out of Canada. To me this is one of the most profound things ever said. i mean honestly, to me girls are their prettiest when there just relaxing, not all dressed up, with make up and eye liner. Now don't get me wrong girls who don't take care of them selves and look a hot mess are not the same as a girl who wears "sweat pants and has her air tied". But sometimes girls go too far. i mean most guys would agree that a girls confidence can out way any flaw in her appearance. I think a girl who can wear sweats and still look cute is perfect. I mean sweats aren't good if you wearin them out to parties and what not but there is nothin wrong with haven a couple days were you just sweat pants it up. Do my fellas agree? And ladies do you see were i'm comin from??

checkn in!

This past week or so have been crazy. I just turned in a 8 page paper on the theory of Middle Child Syndrome. I had two scrimmages, both went well. I also had meet the team day, which was fun. The whole team went through about an hour drills in front of some students and fans. It was kinda exciting to see people in the gym more than the regular 5 or 6 we normally see. It was good for people to see our funny side. So many people think my teammates and I Cocky or stuck-up. Which is funny to me because they are some of the most funniest people I've ever been around. Friday is our first game and I don't know if i'm more excite or nervous, or maybe I'm a little of both. But i can't wait to get my first points at JPJ i told some one i was gonna kiss the court but i don't know how well that will go over with the coaches.

What is music anymore?

What is music anymore? What has hip-hop become, i always hear my mom and pop telling me that what "our generation" listens to is not music. Music has changed so drastically from Micheal Jackson "I Want To Love You (P.Y.T.)Pretty Young Thing You Need Some Lovin (T.L.C.)Tender Lovin Care And ill Take You There I Want To Love You(P.Y.T.)Pretty Young Thing You Need Some Lovin(T.L.C.)Tender Lovin Care Ill Shake You There" to Kurtis Blow"Breakes on a bus brakes on a car Breaks to make you a superstar Breaks to win and breaks to lose But these here breaks will rock your shoes
And these are the breaks Break it up break it up break it up!" to Jay-z "Only thing missin is a Missus You ain't even gotta do the dishes, got two dishwashers Got one chef, one maid, all I need is a partner to play spades with the cards up, ALL TRUST
Who else you gon' run with, the truth is us Only dudes movin units - Em, Pimp Juice and us.. it's the Roc in here! Maebach outside got rocks of air
PJ's on the runway, Young got air I don't land at a airport, I call it the clearport
Therefore, I don't wanna hear more back and forth about who's hot as Young, holla!" Do my parents have a point? let's see whose music is hot now? Lil wayne "Im the hottest shit jumping out the coffe pot man im just tryin to get my spot like a polka dot. Lil cush make my eyes and my shoulders drop, lil syrup and I can make the soda pop, keep talkin n I can make my soldiers pop, real niggaz ridin wit me till the motor stop, I got these hoes straight livin out the soap op. I got a couple like a coat" Has music changed for the better or the worse??

Whats it like to be a regular student???

Over the last couple of days my schedule has went from rough to ridiculous. From 2 study halls (my first from 12-2 and my second from 7-9) everyday, to official practice from 3-6. Sometimes i just wonder what it would be like to be a regular student.
No one checking your classes, no one making you go to class, no 6am lifts. Just a regular student, and all i had to worry about was my school work. Now I'm not throwing a pity party for my self, this is what i signed up for and if i didn't love it i would not do it, but sometimes i wonder how my grades would be so much better if i was a regular student. i just wonder how much more sleep i would be getting if i was a regular student. And whats so hard about being a regular student? We take the same class with the same load regular students do.....just some thoughts

checkn in

Hey just checkn back in. We just got back from fall break so I got a chance to go home for about 3 days. It was good seeing them my two little sisters mean a lot to me (jasmine-12, jade-7).One thing that I truly miss is my moms cooking! With me being the oldest it feels weird not being around, but they know how much I love them so they’ll be fine. We finish up workouts soon then we start full on practice. Our team looks very sharp. Coach has us playing tough hard nose defense every workout. The college game is so much faster than high school but you learn to adjust quickly. Me and my roommate Jontel just got cable in out room so life Is pretty good. Classes aren’t too rough. Startn to get use to my schedule even though it seems like it chances everyday with tutor times and study hall. I got a chance to see that Monday night game between green bay and Minnesota, it was a classic. I’m a big football fan my team is Carolina, we play the redskins next weekend hopefully we can get a win.

The best rapper alive??

Music is a big part of my every day life. With so much free time on my hand my ipod is always on. With that being said one question that frequently comes to mind is who is the best rapper alive?? With the blue print 3 just dropping the question has become even more debateable. For some it's very simple, Lil' wayne. the source says "Since June 10, when his latest album, Tha Carter III, sold 1,005,545 copies in its first week, he's been the undisputed champ." For some the feeling is not mutual. ""I think that if Lil Wayne is the best rapper alive, that's a slap in the face to not only Jay-Z and Nas — rappers we've seen in our own generation — but Rakim, Kool G Rap, Ice Cube, so many of the torch carriers who have passed us throughout the era" for some the Best rapper alive is the Jay-z. MTV says this about jay-z "Is Jay really not just "the best rapper alive," but the greatest of all time? Just look at what Hov's done for the game: He has headlined several major hip-hop tours and brought along his peers, rapped alongside a Beatle at the Grammys and thugged out Madison Avenue, emphasizing that a rapper's clothing line or brand of sneaker can be successful. Now Jay is proving that a "retired" MC can get focused and rep hard as the prez of major record company."


So take some time out and think...who is really better? and add to the list if you feel someone different is better.
