I forgot @nealbrennan's "3 Mics" which is a brace respectable swing at a concept with some great jokes and great game performance... comedy nerds did I miss anything?? Oh I dug @marknormand's Hour too.. tho I don't think that's Netflix... #netflixspecial #comedy #comedyspecial #standupcomedy #netflix #chappelle #seinfield

On haitus now but for the past year I've been recording series on Instagram called #16to100realquick. It's a series where I write an original rap to each of @complex magazines 100 greatest hip-hop beats of all time. I started doing it as a way to pass the time and stay in practice when I was in Florida looking after my mom last year. It was perfect for me because I'm such a snob so of course it only felt worth my time if I was writing to "he greatest beats of all time." As of now I've done just about 40 of them and I'm really proud of these raps. I really pushed myself to not just write a rap, but really dig deep and respond to the unique challenge each beat offered, and I think many of these raps are witty, funny, personal, and layered. They're all on Instagram. Click on this hashtag #16to100realquick and they all should pop up. Check them out if you like poetry or hip-hop at all. And feel free to leave comments cuz I'm an artist and I'm sensitive about my shit, as @erykahbadu said. Someday when I get a new computer I'll finish this series and if @complex is smart we'll do something with it. #bars #barfest #lyricist #dope #rapper #illmatic #nasty #flames #hiphop #fortheculture #battlerap #talkingshit #brooklyn #freestyle #hot16 #BlackGodPantheon (at Complex)

WHAT SHOULD BE THE FEAR: Will Smith on Charlie Rose (2002) Will was on the show promoting Ali, film a loved and the sparked a life-long obsession with not only Will but Muhammad Ali. I saw this interview then, when the film was being released... but I'm only just now realizing I'd internalized this sentiment from Smith, and turned it into my own statement of purpose. This is as clearly as it can be put, who I am, and why I am like this. This is what I was talking about @profdork. Also @james3rdcomedy & @kblumusic, y'all are SUPER wrong about this movie. Lastly, WHAT SHOULD BE THE FEAR is only jst getting started. Rumble young man, rumble. #WillSmith #CharlieRose #MuhammadAli #Fear #courage #purpose #theonlythingwehavetofearisfearitself #fearitself #bumaye #interview #statementofpurpose #artistsstatement (at Charlie Rose Show)

This is a book that's about to be released by #DuaneTudahl... its all the studio logs for the entire two year period of the Purple Rain era... all the recording Prince did for ALL the songs he recorded (for himself and others) in that time. Heaven help me, I can't wait. I can't breathe... *sigh* #restinpurple #purplerain #RIPPrince #RIPPurpleOne #paisleyparkisinyourheart #rockandroll #funk #blackexcellence #art #artist #thecreativelife #greatness #music
