HAITI NEEDS HELP!!!
"Port-au-Prince, Haiti (CNN) -- "Port-au-Prince is flattened" after a 7.0-magnitude earthquake struck the Haitian capital, Haiti's consul general to the United Nations said Wednesday.
"More than 100,000 are dead," Felix Augustin told reporters.
The hospitals are gone, he added, and medical supplies and heavy equipment are desperately needed.
The Haitian prime minister said Wednesday several hundred thousand people may have died in the powerful earthquake.
"I hope that is not true, because I hope the people had the time to get out," Jean-Max Bellerive told CNN.
"Because we have so [many] people on the streets right now, we don't know exactly where they were living. But so many, so many buildings, so many neighborhoods totally destroyed, and some neighborhoods we don't even see people."
Bellerive told CNN's Gary Tuchman all of Port-au-Prince is either damaged or destroyed. He said the population is calm, and authorities are working to determine the scope of the destruction and reach a better conclusion on how many people were killed or injured... "

DISCLAIMER: Keeping it 100.
Keeping it 100.
As easy as it may seem to some, most find that hard to do. You can claim to be the realest; you can claim to always be honest. But actions speak louder than words. This past week you guys may have caught the ‘epic’ performance of Nike Nando’s “Slow”, which featured myself. For the record, all of that was for show. Nando is my homeboy and that’s all there is to it. I have someone else in mind and heart to fill those thoughts that allow me to write those lyrics. The idea of performing the song was cool, although I hesitated at first. I guess that’s why they say always going with your first instinct is your best bet. I knew it wasn’t going to be a grand idea in the end. Yes, it bought me publicity and more supporters of my music. But, I didn’t want to get either of those by hurting the ones that I love. I’ve only been in this craft for two going on three years. I honestly didn’t expect to be where I am today this quickly. Don’t get me wrong I am thankful. It just kind of caught me at surprise. Somewhere down the line it seems as though I got greedy. Yes, I wanted more fans and supporters from the District. But did I really have to go to that extreme? Would you have gone to that extreme? Its not the fact that I displayed such acts but more so the fact that I didn’t ‘keep it 100’ with my boyfriend at the time. I admit it was pretty foul of me and not like me at all. Ask anyone that knows me personally. I misrepresented myself as an artist and as a person. Like I stated before I don’t want to gain fame by hurting the ones I love. It’s not worth it in the end. I’m just glad to be learning this now versus somewhere in the future. This disclaimer might lose me some fans or supporters or even followers on Twitter. People come and go, so it doesn’t really faze me. They’re not determining my life. In the end all I wanted to do was just be real with you guys and ‘keep it 100’. I hurt one of the few people that I love the most – and possibly “the one” - due to greediness. Hell, most people won’t even find “that one” in a lifetime. So I have to set things straight. I misrepresented myself and I thought irrationally. “This might offend my political connects,” but it had to be said.

Beat Clash newbie
A gallon of gas is a grip now, especially travelin back and forth between Rva & DC.. but last night was worth it. i experienced my first time @ THE BEAT CLASH. its basically a beat battle where producers come and present their beats and have them judged. local artists can also come up and do their thing. WELL.. oh and its held @ Bohemian Caverns. WELL.. my homeboy Nando asked me to do a track with him, rightfully titled "Slow". All i gotta say is.. the people loved it!! the crowd was all givin their oohs' and aaww's.. lol.. it was crazy and i had fun. shouts to Stef for puttin me on almost all night and shouts to the crowd for showin me mmmaaaddddd LOVE! i had to get up there and do my thing in that cypher. i will definitely make it back to down to DC to do another cypher, appearance, performance.. etc. the scene was very elating, hahaha.

Wale knows how to make love..
I found this article very pleasing to read. I kinda already knew how [Virgo's] thought when it came to the idea of love, let alone love-making, so his statements weren't too short of what I had in mind. It's a nice read.. for mature adults only. Follow the link below:

Here are a few of my favorite quotes:
"But don’t assume I haven’t been on the receiving end. I’ve even mistaken a f*ck for a love session before. Not fun. Making love is simply put: poetry in motion. Stroke her to the beat of her favorite song. Strawberries, Champagne, a bubble bath, eye contact. Hearing her heart beat while slowly handling business."
that sooouunnddsss goooooddd, haha
"The aftermath of lovemaking is almost as important as the actual act. Gazing at the ceiling until we doze off. Running fingers through hair... Sometimes a female needs to be reminded that there are feelings behind the sex."
