My last weekend

So I feel that I have had a very inspirational and spiritual weekend on so many levels. This past weekend was the opening of the movie "Notorious". I was pleasantly surprised by the movie and how it was put together. For the most part the casting of the characters and the story seemed to fit all of the information I remember. Maybe thats what really made it work to me. That I really could relate. I was around during those times and all the emotions I felt then, I felt watching the movie. Thats why it was such a great movie to me...it struck something in me.

So as I travelled and reminisced on the whole Bad Boy Biggie Smalls, Notorious B.I.G. era, I was blessed by two mixtapes. I know there are a ton out there and everyone wanted to make one(I have one of my own out there too) but these two I really dug. One was from my man J-Rawls of the almighty USC(Usual Suspects Crew).

Suspect affiliate Krate Digga also put out his own foundations mixtape labeled the Notorious FLY. Very dope mixtape as KR8 finds those original samples for some of your favorite Biggie songs.

Then we had the inauguration of a new president. Not just your regular president, but a president that this country and world are probably going to see for awhile and changes in this country are going to be global. This country and especially African Americans felt a resurgence of pride and are ready to be Americans again. The inauguration, even though it was frigid cold brought 2 million people to DC and the weekend prior, I was in MD and I could sense it. Such a beautiful feeling and one of just pure pride.
