Real Talk: Do You!
If you are resisting life's goodness, then working harder at it will push that goodness farther away. Instead, learn to let go and to allow. Simply generating more activity and energy will not help you if that energy is pointed in a negative direction. Choose to re-direct all the energy and awareness in your life toward those things you value most. If the results you are getting fail to bring fulfillment, do not seek to merely create more results. Instead, find the path that truly fulfills your purpose. There is nothing to be gained from making life needlessly difficult. See the truth that life is beautiful, and align your energy and your actions with your very own expression of that truth. When you let yourself be yourself, richness flows easily and effortlessly and naturally through every moment. Your greatest accomplishments come from who you are. Let yourself be yourself. And you'll be as rich as anyone can ever be.

Up & Coming: Melanie Fiona
Via - Concrete Loop
Meet Melanie Fiona, the latest protege of Steve Rifkind, the industry veteran who brought you the Wu-Tang Clan and Akon. She most recently gained a good fan base by opening up the European leg of Kanye West’s famed Glow In the Dark tour. Her first single “Give It To Me Right” samples The Zombies’ “Time of the Season,” and Melanie counts Sam Cooke, Nat King Cole, and Gladys Knight as inspirations for her debut album, The Bridge, which recently dropped via SRC Records/Universal Motown.

Top Ten: Movies to Watch From the 90's!
Not in any particular order, but none the less all equally great movies!
One man lives in the neighborhood, another man owns it. A devoted father battles the local crime boss for the life of his son.
A love that will last forever.
They're a new breed of gangster. The new public enemy. The new family of crime.
There have been many courtroom dramas that have glorified The Great American Legal System. This is not one of them.
To achieve the incredible you have to attempt the impossible
A Player Who's About To Be Played.
No rules. No curfews. No nagging. No pulse.
In a world that's powered by violence, on the streets where the violent have power, a new generation carries on an old tradition.
If they get caught it's all over. If they don't, it's just the beginning!
She walked off the street, into his life and stole his heart.
If you didn't know, now you do!

Real Talk: Quiet Power!
The strongest power has no need to show itself or to prove itself. It is quiet, calm, determined and unshakable. Boastfulness is the surest sign of weakness and insecurity. True confidence has no need to speak of itself. Authentic richness is endlessly generous. Anyone who has the need to appear rich suffers from a terribly painful poverty of the spirit. How do you fill your life with richness and power? Honestly be yourself, and give freely of yourself. Give up the fantasy of gaining benefit over others, for even if you could get it you would receive no real value from it. Instead, make it your business to promote, encourage, raise up, love and appreciate others at every opportunity. Pretending to be rich and powerful is agonizing work that incessantly erodes your spirit. Being truly rich and powerful fulfills your deepest longings and brings you fully to life.

Real Talk: Keep Giving!
The world will often discourage you from giving love. Give love anyway. Many times, despite your best efforts, you will not be understood. Keep giving it your best anyway. The treasures in life are not what you get back. Those things are only shadows of life's true value. The real treasures are what you're able to give of yourself. And as long as you give authentically, from the heart, with the best you have, it doesn't really matter what comes of it. It's nice to be acknowledged and respected and understood. Yet even when you're not acknowledged or understood, there is still great value in doing what you know is right, what you know is best. Smile a peaceful smile to the depth of your being. Be real, and know that all is well.
