the good kid takes over a mAAd industry- Hail King Kendrick

Image
HairyKats, I come to you with great excitement on the day of the release of Kendrick Lamar's debut album good kid, m.A.A.d city. Kendrick hails from the city of Compton, California home to some of the most legendary hip-hop artists, his label head Dr. Dre and The Game to name a few. Kendrick with his mixtapes and with this album has not only single handled earned himself the honor of the best rapper out of the West coast since Tupac, I would also like go on record to state that he is the best rapper in the game right now. Good kid, m.A.A.d city is the greatest representation of hip-hop I could think of from a new (mainstream) artist.   While everyone else is out stating the obvious in their songs (drugs for sale, hoes on a pole, blah blah blah) he draws his listeners in with the lyrical soliloquies of his life and the lives of many people I know from Los Angeles and further more from every hood in every part of the world.

Maintaining your curls

Hey HairyKats, I've been rocking a sew in for a while but had to put in my interim weave to last the two weeks between my next appointment. Nonetheless if you've learned anything about me in these blogs you know spending money on weaves is not my Fortay. I wanted to go curly so I picked up some. 16 inch Milky Way deep curl 15.99 per pack lol. Cheap hair is visibly evident but I've learned a few tricks to spruce it up. Instead of using leave in conditioner I o use regular conditioner because its heavier than most leave in conditioners. It helps relieve that matting element from cheap hair Here's my routine: At night I twist the hair into two pigtails and cover with my scarf. In the morning I remove the scarf and untwist the pigtails and allow the hair to get wet in the shower.. Just s little wet though not drenched! I thin rub a small amount of conditioner on the hair and start to separate the curls. It's simple I wouldn't do it more than once a wee...

The Gift- David "IC" Geathers

Image
Released September 27th, The Gift by David "IC" Geathers features rhythmic lyricism (David Geathers, Executive Producer),  percussion (Babatunde Lea) and guitar (Animal Abstrakt) instrumentals. The Gift is a 5 track EP that  creates a musical euphoria for the listener. The experience of The Gift pulls the listener out of their current realm and intertwines them into the feeling of the music. The sound is light and beautiful to say the least, it is the soundtrack of the soul that calls you to reflect with lyrics such as "balance your mind" as the percussions every so gently take you away. I love love love this EP. Get your copy : http://reflectmusic.bandcamp.com/album/the-gift-2  and check out my favorite track, Desire. Desire by David "IC" Geathers feat. Babatunde Lea
