NEW DR. DRE!!!
TURN ME ON is the track's title, but for me it does less than that. Hopefully this is just off a mixtape or a throw away song.
It's good, but it ain't DETOX good!

new CB 94's
Our "favorite" sports commentator Charles Barkley, former suns star, and Nike are retro-ing his CB 94's in all new color way.
The all purple shoe is laced up in a suede purple midsole, with purple chrome accents.
This pair is worthy of a ring, too bad his game was not.
We give this shoe a fresh rating of 3/5, 5 being the FRESHEST.

CSC shirts were a success!!!
Days of insecurity are GONE!
Our shirts gained mad attention. People posed for pictures with Larry aka The LAC and yours trully, Kbc.
You'd think all the ho's at the Drizzy Drake concert would garner all the attention, but we were the center of it all.
We just hope we stay consistent with making edgy shirts!

we STILL
vying for a dream that ain't
come in to fruition
we still trying to survive,
trying to own the institutions,
trying make the fam proud,
but their pride is so profound,
that the pressure holds us down,
and we just trying to be successful now.
We still trying,
to be good fathers
and good partners,
and brothers,
and paying back our mothers,
not caring for our fathers,
who never really bothered.
we still,
paying back our credits,
and our over drawn debits,
we still trying to fill our savings,
and erase our bad habits,
come in to fruition

Mayor: Shut down city two days a week - LA Daily News
Mayor: Shut down city two days a week
By Rick Orlov, Staff Writer
Updated: 04/06/2010 02:58:44 PM PDT
Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa called Tuesday for city officials to begin developing plans to close down all non-essential city services for two days a week to try to resolve the burgeoning financial problems facing the city.
Citing the City Council's rejection of a rate increase for the Department of Water and Power — and its decision to not make a $73 million transfer to the city's general fund — Villaraigosa said he believed there were no other options.
"I cannot ask workers to come to work when we can't pay them," Villaraigosa said.
The mayor, who once served on the City Council, also had harsh words for the council.
"I do not have the luxury of standing up and taking part in a debating society," Villaraigosa said. "We cannot continue to run this city by the politics of no. The City Council reminds me of Congress in the debate over health care."
Villaraigosa aides said they were still working out the details of the shutdown and which employees it would affect. The mayor said it would be all workers not involved in public health and safety or revenue generation.
An emergency meeting with union officials has been called for Wednesday morning.

Licenses, paperwork, head aches and the people that get away with it.
TODAY I LEARNED A VALUABLE LESSON.
I'VE PLAYED IT SAFE ALL MY LIFE.
My bro and I are putting a business plan together. Filling out paper work, applying for a business licenese, wholesalers permit and a tax id.
It's very tiresome and tedious, but they're required things.
Why are they required things though?
I never bothered to ask. I have some clue as to why.
This is what I've come up with.
It's to REGULATE the flow of business.
My ass makes a design, I buy a large order in bulk, I use my wholesalers license, if everyone bought in bulk without a license, there would be no profit in my line of work, therefor there is no business. I buy all of it, keep the receipts. A year later I file that for taxes. The city taxes me and I get a refund, it's a win win situation. The city makes money therefore I contribute to the flow of business. My pockets get fat, guilt free.
I'm way past my "anarchist" days, when I didn't care about right or wrong, I just didn't care about rules, I mean I followed them but I would question the fuck out of those rules and get in trouble all the time (no criminal record though!).
I use to say F_ _ k the police, because I use to feel that some officers used their authority to replace the lack of power or purpose they never had. I still feel that way about some, but at the end of the day assholes have jobs too.
There's hustlers, grind-ers and do-ers.
I like to think I hustle, but in reality I'm just a do-er, by rule.
By virtue I'm a good guy, hard working. My bro, does the right thing and (except for always speeding and cellphone driving) always works hard, looks out for his fam and friends. You know we're good people.
Where am I getting at?
I'm merely suggesting that we need disorder to be in order, to be on top of things.
I will get stopped by the cops if I sell my clothes on the streets, I will be asked to provide a permit to buy from top notch distributors and companies.
I'm sick of seeing people sell shit on the street (excluding fruit and food vendors, we need them) coming to my job, making bundles of cash and not paying a goddamn cent towards taxes.
It's funny how things get done in the city.
Should we just say f_ _k it and start selling shit from the trunks of our rides. It'll give us that street cred that we're looking for. Or should we be patient, do the right thing and work hard at being a company with drive and determination with a hint of morals.
Please don't get us wrong, we're not out to act holier than thou. We have no high horses to get off from. We're just tired of people not following order, when people chastise us for not following the rules. What makes them so special that they can get away with it?!
