Late night/early morning inspiration: Kanye West - "Runaway" & Lil' Wayne's PSA

I am a lover of all things positive and creative. Musicians to me are the greatest people to influence others because of our ability to capture a emotion and express it in song. Sometimes we get a bad rap because we are all simply misunderstood. I believe the greatest PEOPLE of all time have be in some way, shape or form crazy. From Andy Worhal and his abstract ways of conveying art, Muhammad Ali for striking fear in his opponent before they step into the ring by saying what round he would knock them out in to Kanye West and his random outbursts in public places, all of the greats have something in them that makes you remember them for ever making them immortal. I wanna share some videos w/ you guys that I've watched and that I'm sure you probably have. If your looking for a little inspiration here you go.

Lil Wayne's PSA. Now some of you see this and may think it's bullshit...some of you have different opinions. I believe Lil' Wayne is a genius. And this is what I grew up on so I will always support him no matter what. He's kinda scared me away w/ some of the things he does at times but this PSA let's you know his heart is in the right place with his intentions.


Kanye West - Runaway (Movie)
This is the reason I want a MPC. I use to see Judah's in his old studio off St. Barnabus Rd. where Wale recorded tracks for "100 Miles & Running" (Shoutsout to Judah & Goodbully). The 1st time I met Judah he was making the beat for "Please Listen" when I came to the studio. He buzzed me in, and a scared as fuck young me went up into that studio so eager to learn and get knowledge from a guy I've looked up to for soooo long.

Anyways, this movie hardly makes ANY sense to me. I just think it's hella dope and Kanye is one of my favorite rappers so I just STFU, watch and learn something new every time. Just trying to perfect my craft, you know?

For the record and little known fact:
WTT was released under Roc-A-Fella Records. NOT Roc Nation AND Ye is still signed to the ROC.

You probably don't care but I found that weird and thought I would share it. lol.
