Secrets to 6S

Kind of a corny title, I know but hey...it's the first thing that came to mind.

One thing I always talk about it the people that I surround myself with. Everyone provides a different perspective and adds value in their own way. One key thing I learned is IT IS BETTER TO KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING WRONG THAN TO KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING RIGHT. For that reason, I keep very cynical people in my circle....quick to point out the wack, the lame, the corny, and the cliche'. In fact, one of my closest friends hates pretty much everything. When I go to bounce ideas off of these people, if they don't immediately tell me how bad it sucks, I know it must be a pretty decent idea.

Houstonfest

I took a little trip to Houston last month. I figured since I was in Atlanta, I'd shoot over to the H and check out the scenery (I totally forgot that Texas is fricking huge so the flight was still going to take like 2 hours...but that's neither here nor there).

While I was there I ate some good food, went on a couple of soft dates, did a little browsing. I also spent a few hours at 719 with the homie IB3 and gang. I forgot to sign the wall so I'll have to stop back thru the crib when I'm down there this fall.

One thing I learned is that people in Houston CANNOT DRIVE!!!! I almost got in like 6 accidents just on the way from the airport to my hotel. This guy just stone cold stopped in the middle on the highway for no reason at all. Call him and tell him he sucks.

I've wanted a rose gold bottom FOREVER! So I stopped by TV Johnny's at the Galleria and got one.

Houston was hot. Super hot. Especially when you go to check in your hotel and it's on fire. Luckily, they put the fire out and everything was okay.

My Favorite Things - Music Blog Edition

It feels like the more new music I discover, the stronger my disdain for mainstream tunes. One blog that consistently delivers GOOD music is BlindIForTheKids. They put together these CRAZY mixtapes every month (both new and older music) in addition to posting new songs. Enjoy!

Atlantapalooza - Stills

Flicks from ATL

I bought these flowers from a homeless man outside of Lava Lounge. I respected his hustle. He was just asking for a handout. He was selling a product and his presentation was on point (considering his lack of resources). He seems genuinely grateful.

Dinner at Atlantic Station.

I've been on a quest for dope gloves ever since Solange came through Cleveland in these ILL Chanel joints back in February. I finally found some at Little Five Points.

Atlantapalooza

I spent April 28th - May 4th in Atlanta with my girl Cheech. We thrashed, we hung, we ate, we chilled, we shopped. A lot of randomly good times. Here are some of the moments:

Sunday Brunch

It's a beautiful Sunday afternoon in Cleveland. I just got back from having brunch at The Chophouse with my homie DJ Steph Floss (I'm sure he's going to vlog about it).

Last time I was at The Chophouse for Sunday brunch, I had an encounter with rap legend, Yo Yo. I was eating with my girl Katie when Yo Yo walked in....it just so happened that Katie helped Yo Yo select an outfit they day before when they both happened to be shopping at Next Beachwood. So Yo Yo came over to our table to say hi and we took some pics. I was too geeked.
