Vid is the Sanskrit root of Vidya, meaning "to know" and in Greek mythology, Eos is the Titan goddess of the dawn...
Last night I was thinking about starting a vlog - I was halfway inspired to do it by one of my friend's. I have plenty to talk about. It could almost be an update on all these projects I suddenly have in motion. My phone has a good camera too.
I'm pleasantly surprised that friend just hit me up. Tomorrow night my teammate B. Hoody is performing at the LOFT here in ATL with Cory Gunz, Kendrick Lamar and Cyhi da Prince. I'm there. Maybe tomorrow will be the first vlogpost I do. We shall see.

Finding The Highest Attainable Frequency (Love)
Forgiveness is learning to forgive yourself
Forgiveness is to pray, and pray for who you hurt, to be happy
With or without you
Forgiveness is completion.
Trust is broken to little pieces
Trust is love's foundation, the beginning of all relation
Trust is brutal, honestly and
Trust could be monogamy, too.
Hate is pathetic, and in the state of paranoia,
Hate is horrendous
Hate is what makes love possible.
Hate is ironic and I hate it.
Apologies are iconic, or symbolic of freedom,
Or even just a cover story
Apologies can be verbal but
Apologies are nothing without action.
Friendship is unapologetic and at its best, indefinite
Friendship is forgiveness and friendship is trust
Friendship is the opposite of hate so
Friendship is love
Forgiveness is to pray, and pray for who you hurt, to be happy
With or without you
Forgiveness is completion.
Trust is broken to little pieces
Trust is love's foundation, the beginning of all relation
Trust is brutal, honestly and
Trust could be monogamy, too.
Hate is pathetic, and in the state of paranoia,
Hate is horrendous
Hate is what makes love possible.
Hate is ironic and I hate it.
Apologies are iconic, or symbolic of freedom,
Or even just a cover story
Apologies can be verbal but
Apologies are nothing without action.
Friendship is unapologetic and at its best, indefinite
Friendship is forgiveness and friendship is trust
Friendship is the opposite of hate so
Friendship is love

Nicki Minaj....Is This How a "Queen" Should Act?

All Hail the new Queen of Hip Hop.... According to Rolling Stony Magazine that is. But what is a queen, who is a queen? Most of us would agree that a queen should be a lady, someone who is poised, kind, well-spoken, caring, and someone that takes care of the people who've in some way had an influence on making her the Queen that she now is. So Miss Minaj, it's debatable whether or not you possess all those qualities, however, one thing for sure is that your recent concert in your home country of Trinidad resulted in nothing short of disappointment. In the Documentary "My Time Now" which was aired on MTV that shadowed Nicki in preparation for her album and also when she visited Trinidad, her family in Trinidad as well as the hometown performance that she put on.
What the Documentary didn't say, is what the following article did: Trinidad AUDITED for OVERSPENDING . Nick Minaj's concert....where do i start? Nothing against Nick Minaj, nothing against her performing skills but Trinidad is no America. Yes Trinidad is the head of CARICOM , Yes Trinidad is doing much better that a lot of their West Indian neighbors, however even with the current state of the American economy, the overall worth of America and the financial standing of the country is much better than in Trinidad. Which is why it is so surprising that Miss Minaj felt that it was okay to charge her home country a total of $382,000 (TT) for her performance and entourage and another $60,343 to accommodate her and her crew in the Hilton. That is a total of $443,343 (TT) and to convert that to U.S. for you locals, that is $69,493.
Ms. Minaj's fees totaled about half of the total costs of the concert. I understand that she's married to the BENJAMINS however, some consideration should have taken to the current economic state of the country she seems to openly rep. Being a Trinidadian born and raised, I quite frankly take offense to that, don't rep a country where the culture encompasses kindness, selflessness and charity. I understand that nothing in life is free but Nicki Minaj came to Trinidad not only to perform but to visit her family and spending maybe $5000 US in a mall in Trinidad, does nothing for our country or our people. I give credit where credit is due and even though I may not always be a fan, I must say Miss Minaj made a success of her life and a name for herself. It was her grandmother who raised her in Trinidad til she was 5, if she had the respect she claims she does for her family, and for her country, and was so giving like she portrayed herself to be in that documentary, then that price tag wouldn't have been close to that high.
