"On Wednesday evening House Republican Leader Eric Cantor described to reporters* an abrupt end to debt ceiling talks at the White House. Cantor tells reporters that President Obama “walked out” and appeared 'very agitated, seemingly.'
Cantor also recounted Obama telling the assembled political leaders that, 'he ‘had sat here long enough, and that no other president — Ronald Reagan wouldn’t sit here like this.’' Cantor says he was taken aback when Obama warned him, 'Eric, don’t call my bluff. I’m going to the American people with this.'
'I’ll see you tomorrow,' Cantor recounts Obama saying, as he shoved back from the meeting table and left the room."
"The morning after is usually a bittersweet time. You’ll find yourself waking up, one eye still closed, looking at pictures from the night before. You’ll probably smile while you shake your head in a half-hearted disbelief. You’ll say something like “oh man” while you slowly exhale and focus in on some inanimate object on the floor next to the bed/couch that you’re lying on. The truth is, the night’s over and you’ve probably got very little to show for it. That’s life. Some people choose to live without regrets, looking at each movement forward, even the missteps, as some kind of learning experience or disposable chunk of time. For others, heads swell with dwellings on lost chances and missed opportunities. There’s no right or wrong way of looking at things. Technically speaking, the glass is both half full and half empty. How you choose to word it isn’t going to change a fucking thing about the cup or its contents. They say that hindsight is 20/20, but I’m not sure I’ve ever woken up the morning after and experienced some great moment of clarity. There are still the what-ifs and the uncertainties. What we can all agree on is The Night Before. It was a good night."

"This is it. The mother of all pearls. I put my heart, emotions, soul, blood, dick and tears into this album. It is about the dissonance of life, the hardships i have overcome and still have to face, the female gender, drugs, and my struggle with all of these things. My struggle to let the world know who I am and why I will go down in history as one of the GREATEST musicians ever. My struggle to make sure fools know that none of this came easy to me. I appreciate everyone rocking with me up until now. Don't stop. So without further adieu, I present: ▲ B S T R ▲ C T I C ▲."
"Actually the full title of this song is “An Echo From the Hosts That Profess Infinitum” –which is not as long “Reaching A New Refutation of Time and Space” but is definitely weirder. In case you don’t get the connection, Shabazz Palaces is the newest project of Ishmael “Butterfly” Butler who first refuted time and space with the Digable Planets (there might be some other people in the group but he won’t say). In some ways the futuristic Palaces sound is a logical progression from the Planets alien conceit, if not their jazz fetish. But just to keep you guessing that conceit is replaced with an alternate-universe version of Islamic/Middle Eastern history, kind of an Afrocentric answer to what Peter Lamborn Wilson did with his Hakim Bey persona. Except Hakim Bey couldn’t rap."

"We got a snippet yesterday, now here goes a longer version (w/ tags). Em has a very random part on this, so hopefully it’s not the full version and more like some random splice. Lloyd Banks’ Hunger For More 2 drops November 22nd." Listen Here
"Shout out to Miss Info on the premiere. Earlier in the week we announced the upcoming Fool’s Gold Vol. 1 compilation, which will be out on the 25th digitally and the CDs will be available through Opening Ceremony.
This is my song from the comp, a new joint I made with G.O.O.D. Music’s latest recruit CyHi Da Prynce. I don’t think CyHi is up on my Sunglasses Is A Must past so I was amused when he chose this theme for the song. When you think about it… first I made “Pro Nails” for Kid Sister; then I sent Lupe a beat and he did “Me & My Sneakers” (also called “Mastered”); and now I have this song about shades. Am I like the accessories guy now? At this point I’m thinking if I send Murs a beat he’ll make a song about murses. Not a bad idea…
