Damn... sorry it's been so long, I've been grinding full time in school and finishing my album. Which is done. Ha. Believe it. Here is a bunch of videos I've done in the meantime. Not as much as I would like to be doing. There is only so much time in a day. Enjoy.

XOXO

 My brother, his friend, and I went to the Shepard Fairey exhibit today, which is located in Boston @ the beautifully, newly developed, Institute of Contemporary Art. It was real deal inspiring, especially considering I had his Andre stickers in my bedroom in 1990, way back before the world was screaming his or President Obamas name. His "Obey" campaign is twenty years in the making, and just a few years in the taking.  He says, Do not Obey  the advertisement and propaganda industry, but  defy it with  opinion and distrust....
Then, on our way out of the exhibit, all were buying his T-shirts, posters, bells, and whistles.
God bless the child that can write his own rhymes.

Combination Pad Thai XL-Erated!!!

Chocolate Skittles


At first glimpse at the new chocolate flavored skittles, you might point your head to the floor, cross your arms over your solar plexus, then proceed to faux vomit, and make a comment like... 
"Yea. OK. Ya buggin, son." 
But no, I'm not buggin. I bought some today at the bodega while my girlfriend bought a custom designed name belt-buckle that said, in bold stainless steel letters, "GHETTO". My chica is not hood and this belt buckle wasn't for her. It was for her hip-hop influenced friend who lives in Argentina. Apparently you can't cop name belt buckles in Buenos Aires.
Anyway, these new skittles are yumpin. That's yummy and jumpin' amalgamated. 

Taste the chocolate rainbow, Willy.

Last night I was outside of a bar having a conversation with a stranger about the dangerous additives in cigarettes, when another stranger from Greece whips out his pack of smokes to show us the government warning sticker. I couldn't resist taking a pic.

Bong!
