Back for More

i follow her on twitter cuz shes cute and kinda funny. 1st time hearing her music. *shrug*

"DJ Jazzy Jeff, along with contributions from well-known producers James Poyser, Pete Kuzma and Démien DeSandies, has created an experience that music lovers have long awaited. Yet, those not as well versed in the genre will appreciate these soulful treats just the same. We are already familiar with the success of Jeff’s past work with heavy-hitters Jill Scott, Musiq Soulchild and Floetry. And his work with the Toronto songbird, Ayah, will be no exception.

Ayah, who is a success in her own right, has already garnered a grass roots fan base of her own with the release of her last two projects, Problem Woman and 4:15. And her most recent release of the When it Comes to You single and short film is continuing to make headway. Having worked with respected MCs like Freeway, Mac Miller, Elzhi and Skyzoo, Ayah is no stranger to hip-hop either. This makes Jeff’s jazzy production and classic hip-hop sound the perfect compliment for Ayah’s full and melodic vocals.

With Back for More, fans should expect nothing less than greatness from soul music’s hottest new collaborators. Notable tracks on the project include the soulful tune, Make It Last and title track, Back for More, with its feel good party vibe. Listeners will also witness Ayah’s versatility in the already popular single, Notorious. Ayah unveils her inner b-girl and lyrical flair in this hip-hop banger. Back for More also features appearances from Sugar Tongue Slim (STS) and Toronto’s own Tona."

Tweets from Tahrir

"Some of the earliest and most raw reports of the revolution in Egypt were published on Twitter. Now an enterprising publisher, OR Books, has gathered many of those Twitter messages for a book, “Tweets From Tahrir,” a narrative of the revolution told in snippets of 140 characters or less.

In a feat of nearly real-time publishing, the book will be released on April 21, a little over two months after the revolution unseated Egypt’s president. It will be sold for $12 in paperback form and $10 in e-book form." Read More

Where is Erykah Badu at???

apparently all over the web, son! between my twitter being full of her tweets and RT. She has been the "trending topic" on all the blogs (including mine) and FB.



im so happy for her. both + and - feedback means that she did something right w/ her video. and so far, what i hear from her upcoming album (march 30 i believe) is exactly what i imagine...dopeness and different. I also appreciate that she actually shows her twitter followers personal love. that takes the art to a whole nother level because the ppl can ask ?s and ge better understanding. in addition to just making ppl want to support u even more.

on one end its a shame that she had to be naked to get the attention her msgs deserve. but that says more about us than her. and im sure her intentions was solely for the art and the message so "fuck the world if they cant adjust"! ...sorry had a pac moment.

but neways i had to inform my mother of the success Erykah cont. to have despite the fact that she doesnt get alot of mainstream airplay. [blah to the masses]

ramble, ramble...so on and so forth. im excited.

What is Groupthink? (i wonder how many times that was googled yesterday)

Groupthink, a term coined by social psychologist Irving Janis (1972), occurs when a group makes faulty decisions because group pressures lead to a deterioration of “mental efficiency, reality testing, and moral judgment” (p. 9). Groups affected by groupthink ignore alternatives and tend to take irrational actions that dehumanize other groups. A group is especially vulnerable to groupthink when its members are similar in background, when the group is insulated from outside opinions, and when there are no clear rules for decision making.
