I’m not going to try and codify or explain why Amy Winehouse was so mercurial and still so important to music.
Especially since Jay Smooth found the perfect mindstate to celebrate the artists who have inspired us thru their music.
Thank you JaySmooth for these thoughts. Thank you Gil Scott-Heron. Thank you Amy Winehouse.
Frank Costello was the mobster’s mobster. He eventually died of a heart attack when he was 82yrs old. How many gangsters had the clout to go out free men on their own terms?
I’m not trying to kill this Costello, just putting the name in context.
Eli Porter was the OG Internets Celebrity.
Eli Porter has more courage than almost every rapper who has ever rappity rapped their raps in the history of Hip-Hop.
His confidence is unflappable. His attitude is uncompromising in its positivity. His swag is on one trillion.
Eli Porter is the people’s champ and he is my hero.

Deion Sanders was one of the nicest to go both ways [ll].
The Air Diamond Turf is what you rock when you are going every which way but the wrong way. ‘Neon’ Deion didn’t just know what Bo did, he took the knowledge and ran up on a couple of championship rings.
I’m going to Atlanta to get my shoe game up.
Peace to G-Roc and the fam.
The Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival goes down today. A few years ago the I.C.s did up the festival hardbody.
