MONDAY MOMENT W/ ROB HILL, SR.

 

Expectations aren’t the easiest way to get let down, not having them is. The crazy thing about expectations is that when you care, it’s impossible not to have them. Whether you voice it or not, you expect something from somebody. Even if its expecting simple things like truth & loyalty. Most people are just afraid to hold each other accountable and that’s why the high standards are so low these days. So what if you fall short at times, let downs are a part of life, not the end of it. Since when is it a crime to naturally expect our loved ones to adore and support us? What’s so wrong with expecting our friends to tell us what we need to hear instead of what we may want to hear? Expectations are NECESSARY. Especially if you ever want to be fulfilled or happy in life. If you can’t handle disappointments productively then you won’t be able to handle much in life. You can’t break down at every bump in the road. You have to be tougher than that. Most anger comes from unbalanced expectations. “You can’t love pint people on a gallon level”. Stop expecting people to operate outside of their capacity. Not everyone is real, trustworthy, or loyal. If you’ve learned not to expect anything from certain people in your life, that’s a clear indication of who shouldn’t be in it. Making exceptions is far more dangerous than having expectations. Don’t be afraid to expect, be afraid of letting disappointment get you so discouraged that you just settle for “whatever”.

Just my thoughts good people, just my thoughts

MONDAY MOMENT W/ ROB HILL, SR. 19NOV12

Throughout the years you’ll lose friends, family, and lovers. Loss is inevitable, it’s a rough reality of life but it doesn’t have to be all bad because there’s a lot to learn from loss. Life’s journey is a marathon. Everybody that starts with you won’t have what it takes to finish with you. One of the toughest things to accept in life is that people grow apart. Sometimes you’ll have to love somebody enough to let them go. That may be easier said then done, but just because it isn’t easy doesn’t mean it isn’t necessary. If you’re trying to go places in life you can’t keep following the people who are content with just going anywhere. You need to be around people who have a sense of purpose and direction. We are all impressionable, so if you want to get ahead make sure you’re starting the process by putting yourself around the right influences. It’s simple math: if people aren’t adding value to your life then they need to be subtracted. If the people around you aren’t helping you dream bigger, inspiring you to work harder, or motivating you to do better, then you’re in the wrong circle. When you care about something, you protect and cherish it; your “care” makes it better. Don’t avoid having basic expectations. You should expect the people who claim to care about you to show it, and in more ways than one. If you show me somebody you feel you can’t expect anything from, I’ll show you somebody you don’t need in your life. Beware of those who claim to care more when their actions show you that they could care less. Some people are around just to be around. Stop letting people just “chill” and take up space in your life. Make sure their presence has a purpose. Great people can’t come into your life if you keep allowing average people to block the door. Sometimes you just need to remove certain people from your life. If they don’t see your vision, they’ll compromise your mission. You can’t always control who you lose but you can control who you hold on to, just make sure they’re worth it.

Just my thoughts good people, just my thoughts

AVC (ARCHERVILLE CARTEL) LIVE - CHESAPEAKE, VA

IN THE PAST YEAR THE ARCHRERVILLE CARTEL HAS BEEN TAKING THE INDIE HIP HOP SCENE BY STORM. WITH FEATURES ON ALLHIPHOP.COM, 93.9 WKYS, INDIEHIPHOP.COM, URBAN FLAIR UK, FOR THE DMV ONLY AND PO POLITIKIN THIS DUO HAS BEEN EXTREMELY BUSY. SINCE  THE BIRTH OF THEIR GROUP IN NOVEMBER 2011 KLAZIK AND ITS THE KONCEPT (BETTER KNOWN AS ITK) HAVE RELEASED THEIR 'NO HANDOUTS' ALBUM, PERFORMED NUMEROUS LIVE SHOWS AND GAINED MORE THAN 150,000 VIEWS ON YOUTUBE.

 

I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CELEBRATE THE DUO'S 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY IN A SMALL INTIMATE SETTING (WHICH IN MY OPINION IS THE BEST WAY TO SEE A PERFOMANCE) AND BETWEEN KLAZIK'S SMOOTH LAID BACK STYLE OF RAPPING AND ITK'S ANIMATED 'STAND ON YOUR FURNITURE' STYLE IT WAS AN AWESOME SHOW. THE TWO TOLD STORIES OF HOW MUCH THEIR LIVES HAVE CHANGED SINCE THEY STARTED AND YOU COULD REALLY TELL THAT THEY ARE LIKE FAMILY AND THEY ARE A MATCH MADE IN HIP HOP HEAVEN.

 

THEY PERFORMED SOME OLD JOINTS AND A FEW NEW ONES AND BOUGHT OUT OTHER INDIE ARTISTS SUCH AS BRIX AND SANURA. CHECK OUT THE FOOTAGE FROM THE EVENT, FOLLOW THE GROUP ON TWITTER, AND PURCHASE THE 'NO HANDOUTS' ALBUM ON iTUNES.
