Wake up Mr. West

Before I start,  let me say that I am a huge Kanye West fan. I like his word play in his album, the beats that he makes, his whole "I don't give a f@$k" attitude, and the way he dares to say exactly what is on his mind. In his own way, Kanye is really ahead of his time. With all that in mind, I feel that I have a right to discuss the recent antics of Mr. West. I also feel that I have a right to discuss a possible solution to some of the things that is troubling Kanye these days. This blog come isn't meant to throw slander to him. This post is just a fans view point of one of his favorite artist.

In the year of 2013, the name of Kanye West was in the mouths of most people for many different reasons.  One of the biggest events that changed his life was the birth of his daughter, North West. The name of his daughter had the world saying "did he really name his kid north west?" A few days later, he would drop his sixth album entitled Yeezus. That album would go on to be one or the best-selling rap albums of this year. He goes on to launch his Yeezus tour which, by the way, I am still upset that didn't get to see but I digress. From what I have been hearing about that tour, it is a must see. People have been saying that YEEZUS isn’t a tour, it is an experience. With all of these things happening in the life of Kanye, the two words in 2013 that became tied to his name were interviews and ranting.

This all began with an interview he did for the BBC. Out of all the things he talked about, one of the things that I feel he was the most passionate about is his leather jogging pants idea. He was upset that he came up with the idea with this odd combination, presented it to a major clothing company to not only to have it turned down, but to have his invention to be made and produced by the same people who turned his down. Due to this interview, funny man Jimmy Kimmel made a spoof of this interview on his late night talk show that has really funny.  Kanye didn't take to kindly to that and went on a twitter rampage on Jimmy. This started a "feud" between the two. Eventually, the two made up on Kimmel show and the so called "feud" had ended.
Now after his album dropped, his interviews became 75% rant, and 25% about Yeezus.  

His next interview was one that I never thought I would see. He would go on the breakfast club to be interviewed by DJ Envy, Angela Yee, and Charlemagne tha God. Now one of the things that the breakfast club is known forward is there straight forward, no hold barred interviews.  Any and everything will be discussed on these interviews.  If you don't know who Charlemagne tha God is, he is basically a straightforward,  no bullshit person that says it like it is no matter if his opinion is popular or not. When Kanye was on there, Charlemagne told Kanye exactly how he felt.  First he said he didn't like Yeezus.  As the interview went on, he asked two questions that I felt would explain everything.  His questions were basically why he denounces these corporations, but said he needs them for his clothing line and why don't he just start his own line with all the resources that he has. Kanye gave his explanation, but it did not make any sense. It wasn't until his next interview that Kanye finally made sense to me.

The next interview that he was featured on was Sway in the Morning. Now the interview was a typical Kanye interview for the first half, you know, Kanye calling himself a genius, comparing himself to other great people, and other interesting things. Then when Sway asked why he doesn’t start up his own line, yeezy snapped telling Sway "You don't have all the answer Sway" and basically talking down to him. Now at this point, Sway looked like he wanted to knock Kanye out and I couldn't blame him. I mean what grown man wants to be yelled at/talked down to like a little child. After Kanye calmed down, he asked him the same question again and Kanye gave an honest/real answer for once.

As he was explaining his reason, there was four main points the he made that stuck out to me the most. 1. "As I work on clothing more, I not rapping as much." 2."I not rapping as much, I not having as much finance, I losing relevance." 3. "Relevance is part of my power that allows my brand to be big." 4." You juggle so crazy but then you get a Nike that can simply say the yeezys did good. That was a good job. Let me get you some more so you can start your own line cause obviously people are lining up for them." After he said all of that, all of his antic and rants finally made sense to me.

As far as all his antic and part of his rants are concerned, he is doing all of this to stay relevant. Just think about it. After his 5th album dropped, no one heard from Kanye or knew what he was doing. I assume that during his time away he was designing. He didn't pop back up until he started dating Kim Kardashian, and let’s be honest, that helped her career not Kanye’s career. Kanye really did not become relevant, at least to me, until his first interview on the BBC were his ranting first began. After that, people began to talk about him, thus he started to become relevant again which in turn started to give power back to his brand. If you look at point 3, he doing exactly what he believes he needs to do to make his brand powerful.  So basically everything he has done is for the betterment of his brand. Pretty clever Mr. West, pretty clever.

The last statement he made that involved Nike explains why he feels he needs these big corporations in order to get his clothing line established. He feels like he needs to go thru an already major clothing company in order for him to have his own clothing line. One of the things he was saying to Sway that he tried starting his own clothing line, invested 13 million into it, and lost all of his money. After going through that big of a lost, he still wants to start his line, but doesn't want to take that big of a gamble again. Can you blame him? No matter how much money you have, 13 million is still a lot of money. Losing that will hurt anybody; well expect Bill Gates and Oprah of course. Then you have to factor in that not only does he has to worry about his investment, he has to worry about how all the business decisions he makes will affect the future wellbeing of his daughter.

After all of that, do I agree with him? I somewhat agree with him. As a fan, I see where he is coming from. I can see how he feels that he needs these big name companies in order for his clothing line to come out and for people to see how great that he thinks he is. I can also somewhat see why he goes on and on with his rants. If that what he needs to stay relevant,  them he will continue to do so because that is want get his name out into the masses. Now as a person who one day wants to have his own business/company, I don't see why Kanye needs these companies in order to be great. He is an amazing artist, very smart, and has vast amounts of resources that he can pull together to pull of his clothing line. I think he is just scared and does not believe his own hype. I can understand the reason why he is mad with the fashion industry, but ranting and complaining about it will not make the situation any better. The best way to prove these companies from Mr. West is to prove them wrong, release and few clothing items, and show them why they had worked with you from the start.  As far as being relevant, Kanye is going about this all the wrong way. You don't need to whine, rant, bitch and moan to be relevant. When you rant, you don't sound smart. You say a lot of smart/right things but no one hear it due to your ranting and the way you say these things.  Just do want you always did to be relevant....make good music because to be honest Yeezus was not all that great to me. Maybe it is one of those albums that have to grow on me after listening to it multiple times. If you do have to rant, do it for a good reason like when you called out Bush on live TV.

Apparently I not the only one who feels this way. Famous people have put in their two cents on this matter as well.  Earlier this year Marc Echo, founder of the Echo clothing, stopped by the breakfast club to promote his new book. During his interview, he was asked his opinion of how Kanye feel he needs this big name companies. These are just a few points that he made. 1."Why the hell does he need these gatekeepers?" 2."You don't need the cosigns." 3."He's afraid to try on his own and screw up." 4. "Goalkeepers, the people, are going to transition and vote." During the same interview, Charlemagne says that he should make his line for the people. He said "Power will always be in the people, regular everyday people." One thing both Sway and Marc Echo asked was why doesn't Kanye start out small and slowing build up his clothing line.


So after all of this typing and thinking, I am just about ready to wrap up this post. So Mr. West, I believe all you have to do to get your clothing line up and out is just go back to the days that you was just a producer and want to become a rapper. No one just gave you a record deal. You had to prove that you was worthy of having one. Take those same lessons and apply them to getting your dreams out there to the world. Nothing worth having will come easy. Like I said earlier, just pull together your smarts and resources together, and I sure in no time your will see your dreams come to life. You just have to get humble and hungry for greatness once again.

Dear "Real World"

Dear "Real World",
     
     First and foremost,  FUCK YOU!!!!!! FUCK you for the lies you tell, the dreams you have crushed, and the billions upon billions of people you have under your control. You strive off of the fears and weaknesses of others, and in turn, you use these things to control the same people you claim you want to see succeed. Your high standard of the mood that a person should be and look like is nothing but lies upon lies upon lies. You have people to think that getting a degree will insure a person to a great/high playing job. What you don't mention is the large amount of debt that millions of people will be enslaved to after getting that degree, and having that degree will not promise you that high paying job. You also forgot to mention that with that degree, some jobs will not hire you because of it.

      You have people slaving away at a bullshit jobs just to get buy. You make people living in a world built for one type of people instead of all types of people.  You want people to live in a black and white world, but nothing in this world is made to be just black and white. You have people settling for less than they are destined for. You have folks working a dull 9 to 5 so they insure job security instead of looking for a career or starting up their own business.  For that, you should be a shame.

        Even though you have most people fooled, you do not have every one fooled. Slowly but sure, people are starting to see thru the illusion that you have been casting for such a long time. People are really starting to rise up. More and more,  we are seeing people are breaking against the rules that you have set into place and setting a some new rules.  They are showing that there is another way to gain success than the way that you said. They are showing that their isn't a way a person should look to be successful.  They are showing that with a dream, faith,  and hardwork, anything is possible.  Really they are showing that anybody, no matter who you are, can achieve their goals and dreams.

        So in close,  once again real world,  FUCK YOU! Even though you are still a powerful force, I feel that one day your region of terror will be over. People will wake up, live out their dreams,  and truly live out their life. So until then real world,  I have no choice but to go by your rules right now. When I do become successful, my success story will inspire others to follow their dreams/passion and find their own way to success. So beware real world,  BEWARE!!!!!!

25 years of lessons

Boy ol boy, yesterday has been a great one. As I tune in to this show on mtv, I begin to recap my day. First and foremost, it was my 25th bornday. I didn't do too much for it. I went out for breakfast with my family, got a new phone, went to the barbershop,  hanged with some friends at the movies,  went out to dinner, and went a pool hall. All and all, I had a pretty great day. Throughout the day,  I thought about everything that I have been throughout these 25 years of living, whether it was good,  bad, or a little bit of both. As I was thinking, a few main points stuck out to me that has really impacted me. So I thought I would share a few of the lessons that I have learned thus far in this journey called life.

1. Put god first
There was times in life that we have hit rock bottom,  lost in the darkness,  and feels like the world is against them.  I certainly know that I have felt like that at one time or another.  The only thing that has kept my head above water is god. It hasn't/wasn't nothing that I done to deserve his mercy but nonetheless,  he saw fit to deliver me from my hardest times. Now I not saying that following God will make everything good because you will get tested at times. Just keep him first and know that everything will work out for the best.

2. Be yourself, no matter what others think
Now this lesson took me a while to learn. It took me till I got to college to understand this. Now don't get me wrong. Before college,  I was still the same werid, odd, a less random person that I am now. I think the main reason I didn't embrace myself was due to others. I did have a few friends pre college while being myself. Now when i got to college, I didn't  change anything about me.  In fact, being my weird, odd self actually gained me some of the best friends that i have now. Just be yourself.  Real people will like you for who you are. I would rather have a few friends that like the real me then a lot of friends that like a fake me.

3. Karma is REAL
I can't stress this fact enough. You get what you put out into the world. If you do good things,  good things will happen to you. If you do bad things, well expect bad things to happen to you. No one escape from karma judgement. Just because you get away with something in the eyes of humans doesn't mean you will have the same luck with karma. One of the funniest thing about karma is that it doesn't always come back at you the way you dish it out. The affects could be minor or it could be major. Remember there is a consequence for every action that you do.

4. Don't be afraid of love
Lets face it. At one put or anothor, we will all fall in love. To some people that is a scary thought because love is one of the beautiful/scariest thing known to man kind. To this day, love is the one factor in life that we as humans have no control over what so ever.  It comes without warning and you have no control over who you fall in love with. With all that in mind, don't be afraid of love.  My friend once told me that you have to find someone that is worth diving in the pool of love with. If you find someone that you really care about with all your heart, tell that person because that person just might feel the same way about you. Even if they don't, don't give up on love. I would rather hear a no than to life in a world of "what if".  Love will happen to you when it is supposed to and when you least expect it to. Just let love find you.

5. Trust in the process
I believe one of the most used phrases known to man is "everthing happens for a reason". At first I didn't believe it. I thought it was just something that folks said. As I became older, that phrase started to become true. The reason why we go through these is to teach us a lesson, to make us stronger, to help us to grow, and to bring certain things to our attention that needs our focus.  We never understand why things happen to us while we are going through it, but afterwards it all makes sense to us. That why I said trust in the process because you never know what you will get from your process.

So there you have it folks. These are just a few of many lessons that I have learned over the past 25 years.  These have molded me in to the person that I am today. As I continue to live, there will be other life lesson to be learn, new experiences to be had, more trails to face, and other things life will throw at you. At the end of the day, learn from the lessons that life gives you and grow to be a better person each day that you live

Things that I am thankful for

So today is thanksgiving.  Across the USA, people are sitting at their tables, eating some good food, getting their drink on, and watching football.  By now, most people are suffering from that food induced sleeping condition known as the ITIS. As we gather with our family, friends and love ones to enjoy this holiday,  lets not forget to remember one of the main aspects of this holiday, which is to be thankful.  Some folks have a lot to be thankful for,  and some have a few things to be thankful for. Nether the this, we all have something to be thankful for. So in honor of this day, I thought I will list a few of this day that I am thankful on this holiday season.

1. First and foremost,  I am thankful for god.  He has been there for me at all tlimes even when I wasn't the best child and believer. He has gotten me through some tough times and I am truly thankful for his grace, mercy, and patience with me.

2. I am thankful for my family.  Even though they gey on my nevres at times, I wouldn't trade them for the world.

3. I am thankful for my true friends. We joke at each other, we sometimes get in arguments,  but at the end of the day, I know without a doubt they will be there for me when I need them the most .  They accept me for who i am and they don't try to change me. The y are more than just friends,  they are my family.

4. Even though its not my ideal one, I am thankful for my job. I know that a better one is on the way so until then, I going to stay with this one because it better them not having one at all.

5. I am thankful for this process called life. Through the ups and downs, and curveball, life has been good to me for the most part.

6. I am thankful for the fact I went to college.  Not for the degree I earned, but for the valuable lessons that I learned along the way. The most important lesson I is that it is okay to be myself and their are people who will like me for it.

7. I am thankful for being an original.  An original will always be more valuable than a copy.

8. Last but not least,  I am thankful for the future and what it has in store.  I know the future at times seems scart, but I actually looking forward to it.  I feel/know that greatness is in store for me. I am on the verge of greatness and success maybe not right now but sooner or later it will happen.

So here are just a few things that I am thankful/grateful for on this Thanksgiving season.  What are some of the things you are thankful for on this day?

Nothing was the same

So exactly six years ago on this very date, a young 18 old me was enjoying being a freshman at fort valley stage university aka the valley.  Everything was so new to me, and I was slowly but surely getting used to these new changes.  I had people who actually liked me for my weirdness and I was in the cool crowd believe it or not. I was loving every single moment of this. The feeling of having a taste of freedom was a new experience for me.  It seemed the stars had aligned in the heavens,  and things were going great/amazing for me. Nothing could possibility could elevate the feeling of fitting in or just being me at all times,  or so I thought. On October 30 2007, six years ago, I met/was introduced to someone and since then, nothing has been the same.

This day was on a Tuesday,  and during this time I only had two classes to go to so by 12 pm, I would be done for the day. Now around this time, I would go straight from my last class to the cafe to get something to eat.  So after I got my eat on, and I was heading back to my room when I bumped into my homie. When I saw him, he was talking to a female. Now usually he is always talking to someone, so I really did not pay the girl no mind. As I was about to head back to my room, my homie asked me to hang with them. Of course I had nothing better to do so I waent a long with them. As we are walking, we stopped by the girl dorm before heading to my homie's place.  So we take the short cut by to his place,  and during this time,  the two of them are talking up a storm. So five minutes later we get to my homie's place. I sit on the couch and the females sits on the other end of the couch. 

After a while, my amigo goes to the bathroom for a good minute.  So while this was going on,  the girl starts talking to me. She ask me the normal first time meeting. You know what I mean, "how old are you, where are you from, what you like to do, and what's your major. " I answered all of these questions and ask her all of the same questions. So we have a good conversation and everything,  then she ask me do I have a girlfriend.  I tell her no, and when I was about to ask her if she got a boyfriend,  my homie's roommate comes over, gets in the middle of us and start talking to her. Needless to say, he killed the whole vibe of the convo that the female and I had. My homie comes out of his room, and we take her back to her room before we head off to Warner Robins. After that,  I figured I probably wouldn't bump into her again. Boy was I dead wrong.

The next day, I run into her after my last class of the day.  She said hey to me and asked if I remembered her name.  At this point,  I feel bad because she remembered my name and I didn't remember her name.  She tells me her name again and we spark up a small convo. Afterwards I head to my room. Later that night,  I bump into her again before heading to a halloween party. She was with her friend and I was with my friends. We talked again,  and we parted ways again.  We met up at the Halloween party twice and on both occasions, some how we ended up dancing.  After the party, we said our goodbyes and parted ways yet again.

Now over the next few weeks,  we would run into each other and talk to ome another.  We exchange numbers and occasionally texted each other.  We would hangout with our friends or just the two of us. We would eat dinner at the cafe,  and if there was something happening on campus, we would check it out if it was were free. She came to my birthday party before the semester was over and during Christmas break, we talked like twice. When we got back from break, we became cooler and hanged out more.  She was always there for me and I truly appreciated that.  As the school year ended,  we said our goodbyes and parted ways for the summer.

Before the new school year started, she called me to see if I was back at school and just the to catch up. As the semester took place,  a lot of things were going on with me and I didn't want to around basically no one. I was in a really bad place in my life during this time, and it seemed like it was my cross to bare along. Because of this, I pushed a lot of people away,  including her.  I just stopped talking to her, and hanging with her. All she wanted to know what was going on, and why I stopped talking/hanging with her. I didn't want to tell her, so I just left her alone and ignored her. At the time, i honestly thought I was during the right thing for her by not being near or around her. I didn't want to drag her in to my own problems.  This lasted the whole semester.  By the time Christmas break, I just told her whay was going on and told her I was sorry. She forgave me and we were cool once again.  Before the new semester started,  I decided to take some time off from school to deal with some problems. Before I left,  I saw her, she asked if I was okay,  then she gave me and hug and smiled.  That was the last time I saw her.

While I was away, I started to miss her. I don't know why but I really did mise her. I talked to her every once in a while via text, and I was cool with that. When I was away, one of the main reasons I wanted to returned was just to see her.  Unfortunately, that would not happen.  When I told her I was returing back to for valley,  she told me that she had transferred to another school. Of course I was sad about this, but at the same time,  I was happy because she was doing what made her happy.  I would text her once a month just to talk and that was cool. After awhile,  we lost touch with one another and I thought that was the end of the story, but occasionally,  she would inbox me on Facebook. I would  be happy to be able to talk to her and catch up with her.

All during this time,  I would starting thinking about her at days at a time.  She would be the only thing I would thing about,  and  I would start to miss her like crazy. I don't know why, but I just couldn't stop thinking about her. Its like I was missing a part of me or something like that. I would be cool,  and then in a second, I will be foused only her. I have tried to stop caring and stop thinking of her, but it just not happening.  This has been goning on for years and I see no end to this at all. As soon as I get back to normal,  something reminds me of her or she hits me up and I am back at square one once again.  I told my best friend about this she always tell me that I am in love. I don't know how true this is. All I know is this female is on my mind 80% of the time and sometimes my heart only wants to be with her.

So what does it all means? To be honest, I truly don't know.  All I can do is just play my cards and see what happens from there. At this point in our lives, we are at two very different stages in our lifes. Hell we are not even in the same continent anymore.  I truly don't know what wll of this means.  As soon as I believe I have things figure out,  theres is a curve ball thrown at me. Will this all out for the better? Who knows to be honest. All I know is everything happens for a reason.  What the reason for all of this? Well, as soon as I figured that out I will let yall know.  At the end,  this day will always hold a special place to me. Till this day, I can remember everything that happened on this day like it just happened. From the things we talked about to the clothes that she wore, every detail is etched into the depths of my mind,heart, and soul. This will always be known as the day that I met some one who at time I didn't realize how special they were be to me. Eventuality,  I feel that everything will work out for the best. So until then, I guess this saga of my life will continue to play out the way that it is meant to play out.

At the end, what will your line say about you?

I have been meaning to do this post for a few days now, but between working, and looking for new job, I really haven't been focused enough to actually do it. Well since I have some free time, now is a better time to go ahead with this. About two ago, i saw the tribute episode of glee to Cory Monteith and his character Finn Hudson. For those who don't know, Glee is one of my favorite shows and Cory was one of the biggest stars on the show. Unfortunately, Cory died this year due to an accidental overdose. As the Glee cast honored and said goodbye to Cory's character, one scene from this show stuck out the most to me. Towards the end of the episode,  one of the characters named puck said something while he was at the memorial tree that was planted in Finn's honor.  As he was talking to coach beast and looking at Finn's memorail, he says to the coach that the most important thing isn't the numbers that state when you leave and die. The most important thing is the line between the numbers.  Afterwards,  puck hops on his bike and coach beast tells him to have a good line.  That one scene had me thinking about what will my line say about me.

Now I am still young. So far, my line will say that I was a good friend, a good family person, a college graduate,  and working a part time job. I really haven't done anything big/major and I still in the process of becoming the man that I know I can be. Now some of yall who are reading this are probably thinking I have my whole to have a great line.  That's the thing, no one knows how long or short their line will be. We see these days that people are dropping like flies everywhere you look. Some people are old and some are young that are dying each and every day. Who is to say that I won't be one of the young who left this earth before reaching their potential. One of my biggest fears is that I will not live up to the potential that others see in me or, more importantly, not achieving the potential and greatest that I know I process.

I always tell people that all I am trying to do is  live life, be great,  and do dope shit. What that saying boils down to is three simple things: 1. I want to live my life to the fullest so I won't look back on my life and llive in the "shoulda, coulda, woulda" world. 2. In every thing I do, no matter how big or small it may be, I want to be the best/greatest to do it. 3. I want to do dope/cool/great stuff. I don't want to be one of the people that just reads about history.  I want to be the person that creates history.  I want to create an empire of greatness that will stand the test of time.  Most people may not see that this is possible, but I see examples that proves the doubters wrong.  People from all walks of life prove that with hard work, passion,  and drive, the seeming impossible can be achieve and become possible. That is exactly what I want to do.

As the the days come closer to my 25th born day, I begin to reflect on these years that I have lived. In all, I have lived a pretty normal/good life. Its only in the past year that I have really wanted more out of my life than just a regular life with a normal 9 to 5 while others follow thier dreams and make an impact in the world.  I know people that I know that are doimg this exact thing. They are starting businesses,  companies, and movements that can and will be major millistones in the upcoming years and decades. As my 25th born day comes, I plan to live a more full filling life. I plan to stop watching history and start making history.  I want to build an empire/legacy that will stand the test of time. I think the 3 most important things I want to achieve with the remaining of my life is become successful, be a person that someone can look up to and inspire them to do great things, and mostly importantly,  be the best version of me thqt I can possibly can be.  All these things and more is what I want my line to say qbout me when it is all say and done.

Things I dont get part 4 section b

Ok I back with last part of this two part saga. Now in part one, I talked about the dangers of mixing social media with personal information. Now I not going into detail on the post so if you haven't read it yet, then go check it out. If not then just tough.  So in section b, I will talk about the most said phrase in these cyber streets after someone, mainly a famous person, says after they go on a massive social media vent session, well expect kanye. So can you guess thats world phrase? If you said my account got hacked, then you are correct.

Now after his semi world famous tweet rampage, Gucci did the typical thing and say that his account was hacked. Well he didn't actually say that, his brother said it and gucci retweeted it but that's besides the point. Gucci did what other famous be have done; used the hacked twitter account excuse, which no one believes anymore, to save face. Some people do this, and others just delete what they posted and pray the mo one saw that they posted and/or took a screenshot of their madness. Now instead of saying that the person is fake, the thing that has me thinking is why did that person post that tweet, picture, or status in the first place. After countless minutes of thing, I have come up with two possible reason for this epidemic. 

The possible reason is they don't really mean for they posted in the first place. Now at one point or another we have all gotten hot head and said or done something in the heat of the moment. When that happened  back in the day, we could get away with it if no one saw what we did or we could apologize what the actions that we have done. That is not the case anymore these days. With everybody recording their lives on the internet via social media, a hot headed moment can not be simply taken away. Once something is on the net, it is there forever, and then with the procession of screenshots, nothing really belongs to anybody anymore. Now something that a person probably didn't even mean is out there for the whole world to see.

The second reason I see this happening is for promotion for a movie, album, makeup, or anything that require people to buy it. Now lately I been seeing this trend happen quite often lately. A prime example of this would be what happened between Rhianna and Teyana Taylor a few weeks ago. Now I don't know exactly how this started but for a good hour, these two females were going at it on twitter. Now Teyana was really passionate about the issue. She was going all the way in. Now Rhianna on the other hand, not so much. At first, she was going in then she flipped the script and started to promote her new mac make up line. No only did she promote her make up line, she basically took advantage of Teyana. I guess what they say is true; there is no such thing as bad press.

As the need to vent via internet grows, this hot headed social media epidemic will continue to grow and get out of hand. If folks are going to keep during this, then at least own up to it. Don't back out and disown what you put out into the world. Just own up to it and move on because at the end of the day, no one really cares until you making a big deal about it. As much as i have talked about him, I have to give up to Gucci. After it was all said and down, he eventually owned up to his twitter rampage and apologized to everyone. So take a page from him in this case and keep it 100 at all times.
