THE MAN IN THE MIRROR: MARSHALL BRUCE MATHERS III

One of the generations leading men, eminem represented the plight of an underdog to a king.. armed with experience, and remarkable talent. Though much of his material was stamped vulgar, offensive, and his plight in the industry was controversial, the integrity of his music was and is always true because he spoke from his heart. In beautifull the latest song from his newest project, he eloborates on his relation to society, the industry, and the value of personhood. Honest song from slim shady himself..give a listen..

THE IMPORTANCE OF FATHERHOOD: TUPAC AMARU SHAKUR

In closing of this week the theme is fatherhood. i believe fatherhood is 100% important. A father.. is a cover, for the son or daughter in a world that wants to literally eat them alive. Without one a young man reaches for manhood clinging to guides, reaching to find purpose as an adult. Without one a young woman has a rougher road finding her true worth, and pulls on the strength she has to stand on her own two. Selah. Fatherhood is a responsibility, if you are one treat it as a gift, that many children dont get to experience. Peep the flipside of late Tupac Shakur..

WWW.FREEDOMPEOPLEMAGAZINE.COM-HIPHOP AND POLITICS

In closing of the week, we feature freedompeoplemagazine.com. In my view, along with the issues that plagues our cities, the social and political climate, i believe we are now moving and growing into an consciousness that sees the need for change. In perspective people are seeing life beyond 1 dimension, and past their own selves. Both young, and old feel it, and from a sub-culture it will grow into a theme and way of life. With this train of thought now reflecting in the culture, freedom people magazine exemplify's it. Salute ya'll, continue to show the hearts of the people and the value of human life.

NEGUSWORLD MOVEMENT

We close this weeks feature with a good brother of mine, and a true leader among leaders. Negus Johwell Baptiste. Johwell took the struggles of his own life
and transformed beauty from ashes..negusworld..derived from the from the amharic language(ethiopian) a term meaning "king". Its a clothing line that represents change, power and overcoming. It is an International movement that includes dance,
music, clothing and combines cultures for empowerment to all people..a movement i am also a part of.. a movement to be honored for its impact, and hard work. Here's a segment of Johwell's bio for a lil' descript, salute Negus Johwell.. let it feed..

"A 9/11 survivor. He left the country he grew up in on august 13th 1997 at the age of 19. He then witnessed and survived 4 years later the most horrifying act of terorism this world has ever known.
He immortalized this moment with his own camera... Guess that makes it an average life.

From his childhood's friend getting murdered, to getting baptized by his brother bennchoumy @ the jacob javitz center in front of a crowd well over 3 thousand, he had then the goal of becoming the leader of a church, but eventualy stepped away in search of his own truth. Leader of his own body, mind and soul , he is one of the 1st of 2 to have set foot on the negusworld ground. Inspiring others to wear their own crown with pride... Guess that makes me an average king."
