I Wanna Be A Rapper…

…or a producer, or hip hopper, or whatever we they’re calling themselves these days. Forbes compiled it annual list of the biggest earners, or Kash Kings and they call it, and its a pretty impressive list. No real newcomers this years, but its a who’s who of the rap game.  Fif, JAy, ‘Ye, Dre, Em, Pharrell and the other usuals… Its crazy to think that when I was a shorty my pops would tell me that its just temporary and no one will be listening to rap music 20 years from now… well its 15 years a few years later and “rap” music is selling everything from Kotex to Crunk. From television and movies, to computers and iphones to everything sports related, the urban music scene is up and down Madison Avenue. Trend setters, moguls of all mediums, and even philanthropy and political activism, i love it!

a little more fun too! the hip hop homes for sale, you know if you have a loose $6-15m hanging around in your couch!

I Just Had My Heartbroken….

But don’t fret, because I think that I am in love again already… Ladies and Gentleman, I present to you Cassandra Ventura aka Cassie

Here are some thumbnails from an outstanding spread in next months GQ magazine… Shoot over to their site and check out the article, after you look at the pictures, and watch her videos… and you know… yeah…

My future ex wife used to be a model for Ambercrombie and Fitch so wearing just about nothing and having pictures taken of herself is nothing new… plus she has a “no regrets” tattooed on her body… Oh my, i was kidding when i said I was in love earlier, but now I think I really am… Watch out Puff!

This is good to work out to
