Daily Word: This is your moment!!

Peace and blessings my creatures of undeniable greatness! Happy Friday and welcome to the day that you realize that it is impossible for fear and faith to occupy the same space! Today’s Daily Word is dedicated to taking your moment! In this game of life, the winners are always going to be the people who claim their prize way before they’ve even won and are willing to take the action steps to get there. Those who spectate on the sidelines may understand how the game is played and can become good commentators but truth be told a commentator never wins championships! Make sure that you are, at every moment, seizing the moment! As Judith McNuaght once said… “You can’t outwit fate by standing on the sidelines placing little sidebets about the outcome of life. Either you wade in and risk everything you have to play the game or you don’t play at all. And if you don’t play you can’t win.” Stop being a sidebetter! Stop being afraid…. And matter fact, if you are afraid, don’t ever let that stop you!! Just take what you deserve!!

Daily Word: Plan Your Work then Work Your Plan!!

Great Morning my great people! Welcome to the start of a wonderful week and the day you realize that if you want to accomplish any goal or aspiration in life, you MUST have a plan of action to attain it! Today’s Daily Word is dedicated to Planning your work then working your plan! In order to achieve anything worthwhile in life you must first know what you want to accomplish then create a plan to make it a reality! Most people never accomplish their dreams because they either never set up a plan or if they did, they do not follow through! It is imperative that you ALWAYS know where you want to go, create a plan on how you are going to get there and then execute on that plan! Effective immediately I need you to be more deliberate in how you conduct your life! Nothing that is good and sustaining will happen by chance! Live your life on purpose and take what you deserve! As the say goes “Plans are only good intentions unless they immediately degenerate into hard work.” Start Planning then get to Work!!

Daily Word: Be Not Ashamed of Your Difficulties!

Happy Tuesday my troubled but normal! Welcome to the best day of your life and the day that you realize that life isn’t easy for those who dream! Today’s Daily Word is dedicated to Not being ashamed of your difficulties! There is a big misconception that makes it seem like those who are achieving greatness do not or have not struggled! Somehow many of us who are striving for our place in life get ashamed or embarrassed if we hit a temporary roadblock and have to struggle for a short-while! What we need to realize is that contrary to popular belief, struggle is part of the journey! It is a fact that two-thirds of Americans live paycheck to paycheck and out of those two-thirds, seventeen percent make over $100,000 a year! But it gets better… Did you know that Oscar winner Halle Berry once stayed in a homeless shelter in her early twenties? Or that Billionaire author J.K. Rowling lived on welfare before creating the Harry Potter franchise? Or how bout my mentor and Personal finance guru Suze Orman who is now worth approximately $25 million; did you know that she lived out of her van for four months! Stop being afraid to go through hardship and know that it is not the end of the world. Two years ago, while chasing my dream I nearly lost my home to foreclosure but my understanding of my purpose kept me going! NEVER GIVE PERMANENT ENERGY TO TEMPORARY THINGS!!! You can either live in fear or have faith but never both! Understand that even though things may look all good on the outside for some; It doesn’t mean that they are…. As Richelle E. Goodrich once said… “No one is without troubles, without personal hardships and genuine challenges.  That fact may not be obvious because most people don’t advertise their woes and heartaches.  But nobody, not even the purest heart, escapes life without suffering battle scars.” Embrace your struggles and used them as the catalyst for greatness!! NOTHING CAN STOP YOU BUT YOU!!

-Ash’Cash

“If you would only recognize that life is hard, things would be so much easier for you.”

“If you aren’t in over your head, how do you know how tall you are?”
-T.S. Eliot

Robert Brault once said “There is an ongoing battle between conscience and self-interest in which, at some point,we have to take sides.” While on your journey towards greatness there will be many things that temp you to go astray! You will think selfishly about what you can gain and how much further you can be if you cut some corners but realize that the treat is a trick! The only way you can ever accomplish any success that will be worthwhile is to do what you feel is right! Be true to yourself! Stop allowing the murmurs of the outside world convince you to go in a direction that you wont be proud of!

Daily Word: You can have it all….

Great morning my great people! Welcome to the best day of your life… Everyday!! Today’s Daily Word is dedicated to having it all. We live in the “now generation”… A time where adults and children alike are impatient and want everything instantly… In some short recent years (mainly because of technology) we have been conditioned to not have to wait for outcomes… If we want it, it appears that we can just have it! Contrary to what is being perceived, when it comes to success it does take some work and time… It’s not to say that you can’t have all that you desire, it just means that you are going to have to put in the work! Oprah said it best ‘You can have it all. Just not all at once.’ Many times we continue to ask for more opportunities when we haven’t even done anything with the ones we were given already! Stop overwhelming yourself! You can either give 20% to five things or 100% to one at a time! We live in an abundant world so you are never going to be short of opportunities! It’s great to envision your next step but make sure that you are concentrating on the task at hand and completing it to the best of your abilities! As Alexander Graham Bell once said “Concentrate all your thoughts upon the work at hand. The sun’s rays do not burn until brought to a focus.” Finish your breakfast! Live life to the fullest but remember take it one step at a time!!

-Ash’Cash

“There are two kinds of people, those who finish what they start and so on”
-Robert Byrne

“Winning isn’t always finishing first. Sometimes winning is just finishing.”
-Manuel Diotte

-Chinese Proverbs

“When you have a great and difficult task, something perhaps almost impossible, if you only work a little at a time, every day a little, suddenly the work will finish itself.”
-Isak Dinesen

“A house is built one brick at a time. Football games are won a play at a time. A department store grows bigger one customer at a time. Every big accomplishment is a series of little accomplishments.”
-David Joseph Schwartz

“When we are sure that we are on the right road there is no need to plan our journey too far ahead. No need to burden ourselves with doubts and fears as to the obstacles that may bar our progress. We cannot take more than one step at a time.”
-Orison Swett Marden

Hip-Hop Rumors: Was There A Mass Firing After Lady GaGa Flopped?

Lady Gaga's "Applause"

Lady GaGa did her thing over the weekend – she was funny! But, her album ArtPop has not managed quite so well. The album was set to sell roughly 260k in the first week, which is actually pretty good by most standards. But Gaga is not most artists. Her first album sold over a million in the first week. As I recall, they did a lot of pricing trickery to get that to happen, like selling it for .99 cents in some digital spots. Now, here is where the firing goes. Interscope devoted $25 million into the promotion of this album and will not come close to breaking even. They haven’t put this much into an album since Michael Jackson! There are even reports that own up to payola being transacted to push her single “Applause.” About 50 people are reportedly going to be jobless as we move into the holiday season.

Saturday Night Live Parodies Kim Kardashian and Kanye West W/ Lady Gaga (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Kanye West’s public feud with Jimmy Kimmel as a result of the comedian’s satirical take on Kanye’s interview with BBC One’s Zane Lowe did not deter other comedy staples from poking fun at the eccentric genius. On last Saturday (November 16th) episode of Saturday Night Live, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s relationship was the center of a hilarious sketch.

During their faux TV show, Waking Up With Kimye, Jay Pharaoh (playing Kanye West) berates an Apple employee played by Lady Gaga for using the term “genius”.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Ja Rule And 50 Cent End Up On The Same Flight, Same Row

WHAT ARE THE CHANCES!?

Ja Rule and 50 Cent are party to one of the biggest rap beefs ever! And they are of the type of beef where people were shot and beat up and all that crazy stuff. Not like now, where a tweet equals beef. Now, you think it would be possible that something could pop off, but it seems that time has allowed for cool heads to prevail off the top. Nothing happened at all. The only thing that happened was Ja Rule tweeted about it.

EXCLUSIVE: Stream Kool G Rap & Necro (The Godfathers) – “Once Upon A Crime” LP

(AllHipHop Exclusive) “Hip Hop sucks now, and it needed us do something because of it’s crappy a** state,” says producer/rapper Necro. The leading force in Death Rap hooked up with his all-time favorite emcee, Kool G Rap, to release the new collaborative album Once Upon A Crime.

The two life-long New Yorkers got together one day in Queens and over glasses of Hennessy decided it was the perfect time to combine Necro’s dark, grimy production with G Rap’s signature street rhymes for a full length body of work. The result was tracks like “Black Medicine” and “American Sickos” which provide macabre imagery while cuts such as “Gangsta” and “Trigga 4 Hire” incorporate classic mobster references.

[ALSO READ: Kool G Rap Reflects On Selling Crack Before Turning To Hip-Hop]

“It wasn’t put together in a way that it was a collision,” explains G Rap. “It was like certain songs we’re gonna go this direction and certain songs we’re gonna go more in a Mafioso direction.”

When two legends of the game come together for a project it’s more than just an album. It’s an event. To commemorate that distinguished partnership G Rap and Necro are providing their fans a choice of 4 different album packages to purchase.

The “Joe Pesci Krills Pack” includes the album, 7 art panels, and the 28-page lyric booklet. The “Roy Demeo Yao Pack” includes an autographed CD. The “Guy Fisher Smack Pack” also comes with a T-shirt, beanie, sticker, and poster. Those customers that ante up $100 for the “Gotti Crystal Meth Pack” will get the items above as well as a hoodie, fitted cap, autographed booklet, and a personal thank you from Necro in his next solo album.

The package extras are exclusive bonus items that fans will definitely appreciate, but the most valuable part of Once Upon A Crime is of course the music. Necro is proud to point out that the album is for those listeners who treasure high quality songs created by two of rap’s supremely skilled artisans.

“We were not trying to get it done off some Chef Boyardee s**t where you just open the can and heat it up,” says Necro. “This is more Hibachi. Some Benihana s**t. Some true tempura Hip Hop.”

EXCLUSIVE: Sway Calloway Says EDM DJs Can’t Do What Hip Hop DJs Do + Talks Global Spin Awards

(AllHipHop News) Today (November 18th), the international community of the DJ culture will preside at New York Times Center in Manhattan for the 2013 Global Spin Awards. At September’s press conference to announce the nominees for this years Global Spin Awards, the show’s host, Sway Calloway gave an EXCLUSIVE interview with AllHipHop discussing the evolution of the DJ culture, new ways of branding and compares EDM DJ’s to Hip Hop DJs.

In the early 2000’s, Young Jeezy, Lil Wayne and a litany of other MCs would attest that DJ-hosted mixtapes were integral in their eventual rise to rap superstardom. However, in the past five years, punctuated by the metoric rise of Drake’s So Far Gone, the DJ is no longer an essential piece in making a mixtape successful. Sway spoke on this change but hinted that award shows like Global Spin Awards and the recent rise of EDM as proof that DJs are regaining their spot at the top of music relevancy:

What happened was the DJ used to be the most important figure in Hip Hop. The dancer, the graf writer and the writer all kind of came behind the DJ. The DJ controlled the party. The rapper, the MC, was the guy that kept people hype. But when the rap business invaded the culture, the rapper became the front guy. In the process, the business did not care about the DJ, they cared about the front guy and who they can profit from. Who is the guy in the gold chain. Who was the guy who controlled the mic. That was the person that was in the video more so than the DJ.

Further delving into the evolution of Dj’ing, Sway spoke on how the human element of a DJ will always trump the convenience of internet-curated playlist generators such as Pandora:

I think people are realizing that it’s imperative that the DJ is apart of this process. Even as powerful as the internet has become, you still need the DJ. To really influence the audience. The internet has become a strong tool similar to a DJ. But you not going to turn on the internet when you go to a party. [Laughs] You not going to log on to Pandora when you at the party. So we’ve seen a lot of the evolution.

EDM DJ, Calvin Harris was the highest paid DJ of the past year, raking in $46 million with a reported $200,000 per show earning. While EDM DJs have skyrocketed into being the most sought after DJs in America over the past three years, Sway believes the skill set of a Hip Hop DJ still trumps that of a traditional EDM DJ:

When I was growing up, you had to spin all genres. Whether it was soul, whether it was dance, hip hop, polka, pop, whatever. [DJ] Scratch could spin on any platform. You could take him to those EDM parties. Dance music is the easiest  music to mix in my opinion, the BPMs are all the same, the melodies are all the same, the chords are all the same. They can kill that. But you cant take an EDM DJ and bring him to a Hip Hop party and expect him to kill it. There’s a lot of guys who do both but chances are they wouldn’t be able to do it.

The Global Spin Awards is tonight (November 18th). Check out the trailer for the event below:

Hip-Hop Rumors: Fake Nick Cannon Worker Robs People In The Name Of Mariah!


A dude pretending to work for Nick Cannon has gone around robbing people of thousands in jewelry basically by saying that he works for the super star. Yeah. He goes to jewelry people and at Fred Segal and tells them Mariah needs some jewels and the gave it to him later. They delivered the stuff to a hotel by way of a female worker. The female worker gave another man, dressed up as a security guard. The security guard says Nick doesn’t want to pay taxes so he’s going to go up to the room and get the cash money for her. She still gives him the pricey stuff, trusting the crooks. That was the last time she saw the security dude. He never came back. Now, the police are on the case.

Anyway, shout out to Nick Cannon. While somebody was fake acting like they were him, he was on TV with a new stand up special called “F**k Nick Cannon.”

“They keep us talking, but if we stop talking about them then they should worry!” -illseed.
