The First Lady of LiveStyle Says: I must admit, I am super impressed by this little bundle of energy. With her mother's eyes and her dad's ears, Willow Smith is destined to go far. LOL! No but in all seriousness, this little girl is ridiculously talented to only be 9 years old. Blessed with a deadly cute combination of endearing innocence, home training and, now, the guidance of Jay-Z, Ty Ty, Jay Brown and Co. @ Roc Nation, little miss "Lucky Sperm Club" is racing up the shiny pavé stoned path to superstardom. Not to mention that the "Whip My Hair" record itself is a bonafide hit! But I guess collecting hit records is the easy part when all Mommy and Daddy have to do is make a phone call or two to get in touch with Jay Z. Shrugs.
So I've been hearing quite the buzz about some kid that went to St. Johns with me and just signed to Roc Nation. But I have NO CLUE who he is! And from the looks of things, a lot of Y.O.U. dont either. So partake in this video. It should fill Y.O.U. in just as much as I would. And then some..
While my friend KLEPONE and I are not signing off on him just yet, "Dreams" featuring Brandon Hines caught our attention. All I can say is that Drizzy might want to step it up before J. Cole takes all his limelight. I feel the comparisons coming. Tell me what Y.O.U. think.
P.S. If you're clueless as to who Brandon Hines is, Stay Tuned Kids!
UPDATE! EDITOR'S NOTE: CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Yet further evidence that in this Mad Max-like wasteland of talent that mediocrity is the new "good" and that good is the new "great".
Sure the young homie reppin' "Fayettenam" (FayettevilleN.orth C.arolina slow poke) has an enormous amount of potential, however, the derth of viable candidates for the oh so coveted Hip Hop "throne" has created a largely internet based vacuum where after a good freestyle or 2 message boards and blogs fill up with dick riders all hailing the "flavor of the month". I mean, haven't we ALL been here before? Asher Roth? Kid Cudi? Charles "The Pink Punching Bag" Hamilton? Insert random overhyped MC's name here x______________________________________.
Listen, if Y.O.U. truly do think that J. Cole is the "future", then please do him the greatest favor and grant him the space to grow and mature into the artist that he is destined to be. The hype stops here. Livestyle is all about quality control my friends. Please make a note of it.
I'm the last money in and I'm the 1st money out in any situation. I am a Brooklyn born and bred MC with a keen sense of self and I appreciate forward thinking with regard to any endeavor. I am NOT your average rapper. I'm a hood socialite. The following will give you true insight to me as a man, my music and my unique LIVESTYLE. I does this for real homie!
The world is filled with blogs AND hoes, I'll just talk about those I know.
