Laundry | Directed by Danielle Katvan

I'm a big fan of "shorts." They remind me of songs, because you have such a small window of time to tell a story. And like the best storytelling songs, the best shorts have layered stories with room for interpretation. There is really an art to creating a good short.

Written and Directed by Danielle Katvan.

In an eccentric, old-school laundromat, a young man is lulled into a daydream while waiting for his wash cycle to finish. "Laundry" is a quirky and colorful segment that juxtaposes the mundane with the magical.

I can't give you a reason why, but I just find this picture to be dope.

J'Davey - Get Together

I'm not sure if I get every element of this video. But, I think its a nice video that matches the song pretty well vibe wise. J'Davey consistently delivers dope music. I'm anticipating their new album.

This is what my apartment will look like next year.

Inspiration | Bill Withers

Still Bill Trailer from B-Side Entertainment on Vimeo.

The story
Still Bill is an intimate portrait of soul legend Bill Withers, best known for his classics “Ain’t No Sunshine,” “Lean On Me,” “Lovely Day,” “Grandma’s Hands,” and “Just the Two of Us.” With his soulful delivery and warm, heartfelt sincerity, Withers has written the songs that have - and always will - resonate deeply within the fabric of our times.

Why this story inspired me
The trailer shows that Bill Withers’ main strength is to not become distracted by what other people want. He’s not looking for people to like him, he’s not looking for more money, he’s looking for ways to know how it feels for his “desperation to get louder”.

What I hope sharing this story will lead to
I hope that more people will find the strength to do whatever it is that they want to do. This means: being true to yourself.

GLC - Momentum

Shoutout to GLC for showing me love on Terminal O. It's only right I show love back. Here GL drops a video for his joint Momentum directed by Davy Greenberg. Track is produced by Tony Baines. Video is dope. I like the way the split screen effect was executed. Also, GLC's upcoming album will reportedly be finally coming this summer. And ya say, Chi-City.

Ya'll know I like it simple. Dope.

Whatever you expect, you get.

And most of you can't expect past what is. That's your limitation. You find it hard to expect past what is. Stretch that expectation by listening, by feeling for it. And when you start feeling - Oh, if you could feel what Source expects for you - and that's why so often you feels such strong negative emotion, that's that fear and inadequacy you describe. When you look at yourself so differently than they way Source looks at you, when you don't expect good things from you - because Source is expecting such wonderful things from you - there's a cross current going on.

You have to see as you want it to be. Never mind what is. What is does not mean diddly squat. What is doesn't matter. It's just a point in time, a momentary, manifestational indicator of how you've been thinking. Think differently and it will shift. It will morph with your thoughts every single time.

Meanwhile...

What it iz....yep, that pic is from Holy Omen video. Coming very soon, and I really think its dope. Can't wait to blast it out to everybody.

My show the other day at Sway, went pretty good. Thankful to all the people that came to support and really showed me a lot of love. Gained some new fans and met some cool people as well. I'm looking forward to performing more. Other than that...yes I'm still working on the mixtape. Someone asked me the other day when is "Detox" coming? LOL....I just put out the sampler, gimme a little time ya'll. It'll be worth it. I wanna be known for quality not quantity. Oh yea...I think you guys/gals should start leaving some comments on here as well lol. Peaceeee and love - O
