sooo.. one quick thing i wanted to put out there
i am sometimes amazed at how little people know about music i lost count of how many times i have asked a person "do you like drum and bass?" and they say something like: "yeah i used to play drums.. and bass is cool too" "i think i saw one of their videos once" "yeah cuz without drums and bass a song is nothing but vocals and guitar" smh... just NO. drum and bass is a genre of music.. drum and bass is also notated as dnb .. kinda like how rhythm and blues is notated as rnb.. rhythm and poetry gets the name rap, etc drum and bass is like something u file under dance music you have techno, drum and bass, trance, dubstep, house, etc if you like to dance.. or if you like long songs.. or maybe if you like experimental songs, or songs with minimal vocals, then check some of this out

i think we should all strive to be humble and unassuming
try to set your pride on the backburner a little more often apply this technique to your existing friends and you will strengthen those relationships seek to give the advantage rather than take it you may think "if i take care of them, who will take care of me?" try to believe that God will look out for you, no matter how subtle that may manifest strive to not be easily offended sometimes try to make excuses for other people when they annoy you mainly use humility in large amounts around people you want to be around or with, like if u want to fit in but also don't be afraid to receive receiving gifts and compliments and position are all a part of humility.. you sometimes have to honor the fact that a person wants to bless you proper humility all starts with something as simple as please and thank you.. i am recommending that you take it a few steps further than that and it will in turn take you a few steps further as well one interesting thing that i remembered today was one day bow wow the rapper was on twitter and he said something like
"my life sucks.. i'm 21 and i've experienced everything.. i have nothing to look forward to" this has always stuck with me.. its like the EXACT OPPOSITE of my life i had never seen his perspective before but it makes sense.. could you imagine driving every car, rocking every show, having your own home, and having access to any girl when ur still a teen? seriously lol what does a person like him have to look forward to? what do u strive for? or like how do u even choose a girl when they all want you? how can you tell who actually cares about you for you? hearing his perspective on that really made me thankful to just be james.. not dissing him.. cuz he's very blessed, but i just never thought of that side of it before ++++++ continuing the discussion about an artist's perspective... prince is always a good example of a person's experience making them into an even better artist when you listen to prince, a lot of times he sings from a perspective of vulnerability he has a longing for female love and attention.. this place of vulnerability and being willing to chase without any pride or bravado seems to set him apart from many other artists in my opinion where does this come from? prince is literally no more than like 5ft tall or something women generally don't want to be with someone who is that height so you can see where his style and perspective come from.. can you imagine being 5ft tall in high school and trying to get girls who are looking at these huge football and basketball players? prince's whole style makes perfect sense this is one thing to think about when you listen to music what is their perspective and what might it come from? if you can make it all make sense in your head, it tends to add to the dynamics of it all try it out btw.. this may not work for artists who don't write their own music (note this is not important.. its kinda just me thinking outloud)
for some reason i just now noticed i have a few followers on soundcloud i never noticed up until now and i only have about 5 people but i'm still pretty surprised that anyone would want to follow me on there at all this makes me want to actually put out good material on there i was never really using soundcloud as a display for my music i put actual finished music on my bandcamp account my soundcloud is only really meant so that i can post things here on the site.. in other words, i was using it more as a database than a showcase hmmm... i may just need to make a 2nd account one for the site and one as more of a showcase of songs this is the same thing that happened to me with youtube i was doing videos just to post here on the site.. but people kept subscribing to me i kinda didn't like that because just going to youtube imo is kinda impersonal.. and also i would imagine the videos are completely without any kind of context or background without being attached to this website i finally just had to make my account invisible soo.. since my soundcloud seems to be getting a tad bit of attention i will need to see about making one that is a bit more intentional.. i'll let everyone know if i make a new account as i sit here listening to a certain instrumental, i keep thinking 2 words
gorgeous, and refined gorgeous sounds like a feminine adjective refined sounds like a male adjective the gorgeous female is the very embodiment of beauty- her presence is a gift the refined male is prepared and wise.. he exudes charisma and influence are you a gorgeous female? a pleasantry? a gem? are you a refined male? do your words and actions carry the power to reassure? are you worthy of the other? it is indeed worth pondering i've always had an issue with standardized tests
ok this one isn't graded but here's an example of why standardized tests are flawed the thing you do here is you choose a number from 0 to 5 0 = always 5 = never ok so here's the question: I encourage my team to participate when it comes decision making time and I try to implement their ideas and suggestions. so what's the problem here? the problem is its asking me two questions. to which i can provide only one answer. what if i don't encourage people to participate, but i do try to implement their ideas? then what? even if i decided to meet in the middle, there is no middle number between 0 and 5.. there is just 2 and 3 and so both are slanted one way or the other am i overthinking it? OR ARE THE TEST CREATORS UNDERTHINKING IT!!!!!! when they make tests that are so unclear and so narrow and stupid, it always amounts to frustration for people who just want to put down the correct or most accurate answer.. its annoying and i shouldn't have to deal with this.. JUST MAKE YOUR QUESTION MAKE SENSE! otherwise let me answer it with an essay.. don't ask me 2 questions and tell me to answer it with one answer and its not just this, its just the nature of standardized tests.. asking you things in a weird way .. or using words that are misleading or whatever.. that's what is annoying.. just the whole nature of how they are made.. people don't all see questions the same way so you need to make it make as much sense as possible here's an example of what i mean: "I don't want to see you go away." "I don't want to see you, go away." they have completely opposite meanings yet the only difference between the sentences is a comma.. so my point is standardized tests need to make SURE they can only be interpreted one way.. NOT FOUR !!!!! you have to really LOOK AT THE QUESTIONS YOU ARE ASKING.. REALLY LOOK AT THE SENTENCES YOU INCLUDE!!! if you're going to make a test, then make sure each aspect of each question makes sense and only has one outcome how would i sound asking you this: What is your favorite breakfast? circle yes or no IT MAKES NO SENSE!!!!! lately i've been really into shows about collecting and ish
there's one show right now where guys go out searching for rare nes (nintendo entertainment system) games and i think its so neat chances are you won't ever find the most rare nes games because they are VERY rare, like to a point of absurdity the top one is worth about $15,000 to $20,000 or maybe more but that's SUPER rare as you go down the list, the less rare it is, the less its worth.. with a little determination, you can find a game worth $100 - $300 the sellers a lot of times don't know how much they're worth so you can get games like that for like $5 or two for $4 or something.. so that's a good deal i am into this stuff lately.. its madd interesting.. i even went to a game store today just to look and see if i could find some rare stuff.. even tho i don't know much about what's rare and what's not.. it was fun to look around its kinda nostalgic cuz my grandparents and parents bought us a nintendo back in 89' i was so hype when i took the wrapping off and saw the nintendo sign lol and yo i actually have it on tape!!! i need to get that video and convert it and post it.. man.. yeah i definitely need to do that ish just so u know where this is coming from.. this is just me sort of venting after a conversation i had earlier today...
women are madd irritating in that they are so insane about this "women can do anything a man can do" thing whether you can or can't.. WHO CARES? women cling to this to their own demise "oh he can cheat? i can cheat too" "oh he can work 40 hours a week? i can work 40 hours a week" "oh he can stay out with his boys? i can stay out with the girls" "oh he can pee standing up? i can pee standing up" NO ONE CARES ITS NOT A COMPETITION how about: "oh he can pee standing up? i can pee sitting down" "oh he can work 40 hours a week? i can watch the kids" "oh he can cheat? i can leave" male/female romance relationships SHOULD NOT BE COMPETITIVE i got 3 syllables for ya, sound it out.. part- ner- ship.. now say it with me! PARTNERSHIP this whole aggressive and vindictive mindstate some women have is madd annoying.. i'm like ok i get it so you can change a tire in 5 seconds and you can fart louder than me.. you can go out without makeup, you can wear pants.. you can wear timbaland boots and a wife beater, i get it! you can beat me at video games! you like to have sex without commitment that's perfect! you have no sensitivity whatsoever ok you win! I FCKING GET IT, YOU HAVE A D*CK TOO AND YOU'RE A BETTER MAN THAN ME!!! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?!! GREAT!!! NOW STFU AND LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!! if you feel like you need to compete as opposed to play your position then there's something wrong with that its like when i saw a tlc behind the music on vh1.. t-boz and chili wanted to sing about cheating on a guy because he was cheating on them.. left-eye didn't want to sing the song tho because she had the independent thought of: "if he's cheating why don't i just walk away?" women like t-boz and chili try to act so 'independent' but who is independent? the women who do whatever a man does whether good or bad? or the one who just does what makes sense and works for them? STOP TRYING TO COMPETE WITH MEN STOP TRYING TO BE MEN BE YOU PLEASE.. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING A WOMAN if you're a better man than me then there is something wrong with that picture *exhales* btw: left-eye you were always the best one in the group!!!! |
