#rapnerdsunite

What a crazy year! I graduated virtually; but still got my degree in Data Science & Computer Programming. I planned a destination wedding; but still got married here in NC in spite of COVID. I lost a lot of loved ones too soon; but still find ways to appreciate the people that are here now... new friendships and old. 2021 is our year. And every year after as long as we make it happen. I'm ready to put the elbow grease on this polish in order to shine this year... I'm praying that all my loved ones are too. We're still here because we're supposed to do something. DO THAT SOMETHING NOW. If you complete that task and you're still here... you're meant to do something else too. Keep growing, loving, living, learning, and nurturing. Keep BEING. Stay present and focused on your future. Because that's how you survive a year like this one. I'm proud of us all. Proud because, in the face of adversity, we found love, hope, peace, joy, and strength in each other. Can we keep THAT party going straight into 2021 and beyond? #BeKindAlways #HappyNewYear #MusicIsMyAir #BeTheChangeYouWantToSee #RapNerdsUnite #LiveAtFiveTribeVibes #ButStill https://www.instagram.com/p/CJd52BcBQJq/?igshid=s998l33h5ga2

Thank you, @bonsudreamz... A convo with @blackthought is the perfect way to start the day. #MusicIsMyAir #RapNerdsUnite #Repost @bonsudreamz ・・・ A good day in my profession is receiving the opportunity to have a one-on-one with a creative you’ve admired and championed before it was cool to admire and champion them. Anyone who truly knows me will tell you that Tarik Trotter aka @blackthought is an orator and scribe who I admired years before his Grammy with @theroots and gig on @fallontonight. He embodies my definition for a master of ceremony. He’s also about to turn 47 and is still capable of lapping 98% of today’s rappers old and new (see Funk Flex freestyle). His new EP Streams of Thought Vol. 3 drops in a couple weeks and I’m going on record to say it’s his best solo work thus far. It so happens that the production was handled entirely by my homie @itsseanc (Tomorrow’s #FanAFriend interview FYI). For now, you should read my latest Q&A with the talented Mr. Trotter in which he discusses avoiding prison as a youth, teaching his children about White Supremacy and the reason why rappers age out.

I need some more stickers; but these will do for now. Missing my Toshiba; but I figured it was about time to upgrade. Computing with a Dell from now on. #MyLaptopScreamsHipHop #MusicIsMyAir #RapNerdsUnite https://www.instagram.com/p/CFD6i6OBGwG/?igshid=1oj7a76ex251a
