Happy Tuesday, my movers and shakers!
Welcome to the beginning of the fearless you! The you who stops making excuses, and the you who makes it happen!! Today’s Daily Word is dedicated to making the attempt!
There are many talented people in this world who continue to live mediocre lives because of their fear to try anything new. They make excuses about the economy, their environment, their upbringing, or simply have grown complacent. They watch as other people who aren’t as talented as them live their dreams, and they secretly envy those persons’ lives. They condemn, criticize, and hate on everyone else, but are still unwilling themselves to take the first step….
The Good News is that this does not apply to anyone who is reading this!! Because, if you are
reading these words right now, then you know that nothing is impossible! You know that anything you want in life is already yours, if you make the attempt to get it! You are also aware that you don’t become a failure by failing; you become a failure by giving up… And contrary to popular belief, if you don’t try then…. Yup!! You gave up way before you even started!!
Give your dream a shot! Allow it to come true by taking the most important step…. Beginning!! You are built to last and withstand many adversities…. I can almost guarantee that the thing you fear the most will most likely never happen!! So make life happen!! Get what you deserve out of life!!!

(AllHipHop News) Entertainment moguls Jay-Z and Will Smith are among a group of investors who are backing a new video sharing application, Viddy.
Viddy is an app for the iPhone which allows users to create small videos and share them with friends, much like Instagram works with photos.
So far, the Viddy app is a hit, with over 10 million registered users and 300,000 new members per-day.
Yesterday, the company announced that Will Smith’s Overbrook Entertainment, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation Shakira and Twitter founder Biz Stone are among the new investors in the company.
In an interview with the New York Times, Brett O’Brien, the founder of Viddy said that the celebrities were bought an undisclosed amount equity and will help to increase the “it factor” of the app.
“Shakira has 40 million fans on Facebook and she is huge in Latin America,” Brett O’Brien told the New York Times. “I’m pretty sure this will help us get bigger in Latin America.”
In February, Viddy completed a $5.5 million round of funding as well.
Editor’s Note: DJs carried the original torch for Hip-Hop – back when there were no MCs! AllHipHop.com is taking a little time out to “Salute the Spin Doctors” this month. Check back for more feature stories and editorials with some of the top DJs across the country.
Let’s just make one thing clear, you can’t possibly “Salute the Spin Doctors” without talking to Jeffrey Allen Townes first. Known best to the world as DJ Jazzy Jeff, he is one half of the duo who won the first ever Grammy Award for Rap with their 1989 hit single, “Parents Just Don’t Understand”. Not to be forgotten as his partner’s star rose, Jeff has continued to DJ, produce, and help develop and guide budding music careers.
With Virginia’s own Skillz by his side and Hip-Hop icon Biz Markie handling duties on the 1’s and 2’s during a recent in-store appearance at West N.Y.C., Jazzy Jeff mingled and socialized with curious onlookers of his upcoming sneaker, along with all-around admirers and appreciators of the immense time, work, and overall class that Jeff has contributed to Hip-Hop for almost three decades.
AllHipHop.com was on hand to catch up with Jazzy Jeff during his Pro-Keds in-store and got him to speak on the signature sneaker that he designed for release in November. He also noted whether he has any desires to venture out further into the sneaker fashion game.
Jeff then went into “spinner” mode and compared the role and importance of the DJ 20 years ago to what it is today. In addition to some other great tidbits, DJ Jazzy Jeff told AllHipHop.com he is ultimately responsible for Mac Miller and DJ Premier hooking up, and that he thoroughly supports the Pittsburgh native in all of his endeavors.
