*New Music* Beanie Sigel feat. 50 Cent - I Go Off
Barely a week after signing with G-Unit, former Roc-A-Fella MC Beanie Sigel has unleashed a Jay-Z diss titled "I Go Off." Actually, Beans keeps the insult subliminal, while 50 Cent boldly rips into Jay at the end of the track. Sigel is still as raw as ever, but 50's lame hook renders "I Go Off" nearly unlistenable. I'll be surprised if Jay takes the bait and gives Beans the attention he so desperately seeks.

Nike Foamposite One - Copper
We’ve seen these Nike Foamposite One kicks on the feet of Wale, and now we get some detailed shots of what will surely be a widely popular release. Many Nike fans revere this model as one of the great releases in Nike Basketball’s rich history. The bold shape and design that are synonymous with the Foamposite one are made even more evident on this model in metallic copper, which gleams and showcases the contours of the foam material featured on the upper. Clear, icy soles are kept in tact, and the black on the heel, lace area, tongue and midfoot is a nice way to mute the gleam of the copper color. More information on this shoe is coming soon.

From Seed to Weed
Here is a completely awesome set of pictures I found over at Hemp City that follows an outdoor grow setup from June to December and it allows you to look watch the growth from the seed to the joint that the guy smokes at the end. It's a beautiful process that I wish I could take part in, alas, it's still illegal to grow weed here. One day that will change. In the meantime all we can do is look at this guys grow and be jealous that it doesn't belong to us.

What on EARTH Am I Here For??
I worked another service where we laid a mother alongside her two beautiful young daughters. Again, I thought to myself that could have been me. I sometimes come home and cry, there have been times that I sit in the arrangement room with the family and tears fall, or I may be standing at the casket and my eyes well up. But that lets me know that I do have feelings, there is something that I can say or do to make this family know that there is someone who cares.
It gets to the point to where I'm in the store, restaurant or even the CLUB and people come tap me on my shoulder and say "Do you remember me?" or "You work at the funeral home". That makes me realize as well that I am being watched and I have to live my life right. Because of course you never know who knows you, especially in this business.
Now, this brings me to my closing....What on EARTH Am I Here For? I am here for you, my friends, your families, people I don't know and their families. I am here to let help ease that burden of loss off your shoulders for at least a day or two. I am here even if you don't want to talk to me about it, you can because everyone grieves differently. I am here to take that long walk with you to leave your loved one at their final resting place wherever it may be. That is what HE has called ME here for, on earth. I always heard a funeral director say "Never put a question mark where God has already placed a period" and I now know what that means. HIS will has been done over your life. When he wants you in his secret garden, you will be there, that is a call that you cannot just ignore. SO of course my friends, be ready.

Sonic Skillz Interview
Sonic Skillz:
Sonic Skillz is the alter ego of DCT, who's just a mild-mannered guy from New York who lives in Florida and loves to create. I think I stand out from being another run of the mill producer, by simply trying to be me. A lot of guys try to hard to replicate whatever sound is hot at the time, but as for me, I really try to find my own style.
