Two days ago Lauryn Hill took to her twitter page to release to let the masses know she had just posted a new song via soundcloud. the song Black Rage is may or may not be influenced by the Ferguson, MO shooting of Mike Brown but the fact that Lauryn Hill released it is influenced by the shooting, as she doesn't release much music to begin with.

2014 Emmy Promo: Barely Legal Pawn
Common featuring Vince Staples "Kingdom"
I've been under a rock for the past month and a half kind of cause I've listened to the album but this video floated right by me. So I went searching for more info for a song that I liked and I found a very thematic movie styled video. Kingdom follows a hustler's 24 hours transition.

Jimi All Is By My Side
This movie has been on hold for years in each stage of movie productions for multiple reason. Earlier this we had a teaser with release date that has gone and pass. Now we have a trailer with an even closer release date which is September 26. Nothing has leaked out from the as of yet the question is will it and whether it does or doesn't will the movie still be sought after based on the amount of talk that it had too early into its production?
Video: Ice B "Fancy Freestyle"
Elle Varner "One Love"
Another heartfelt song inspired by the happenings of the wrongful death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. Elle Varner takes her hand at lending her voice for the cause of this soul wrenching pain to end and bring togetherness.
The Theory of Everything
With the year ending movies has to become more and more serious and the most common way to do that is to release a biopic of scientific marvel Stephen Hawking.

Article: It Feels a Lot Like 1995
It Feels a lot like 1995
It feels a lot like 1995 for the
wrestling community, minus the booming of new competitions like ECW & WCW for the mainstay sports entertainment company that is WWE. Before the official
start of the “Attitude Era” it was the beginning of something new to heighten
the social relevance of wrestling to pop culture. It was live tapings with
colorful characters that you either wanted to be like or be with. This was a
first in wrestling, prior to televised wrestling good looking and desirable men
(and now slowly introducing more women) were far and few between. While most of
the wrestlers of the 80’s looked more like Dusty Rhodes, their weren’t many
that looked like Flair and the Four Horsemen, but that was a time when it was
mainly just about the sport of wrestling with most women being valets or eye
candy.
Live televised wrestling changed a
lot of the traditions, they were competing with everything on TV not just other
wrestling companies. Jumping into the sports entertainment world you have to be
ready for the vapidity of the industry, and they with such pretty faces and
attractive bodies that front-lined for the their company like DX, NWO, Sting, Flair,
etc. Like controversy, sex sells (that’s something that needs to be added to
the Laws of Attraction) and during the late 90’s and early 2000’s there was a
lot of it, possibly more than necessary. But we’re neither here nor there, this
is about the comparisons between now and the months before WWE transition into
the Attitude and the appearance of WCW and NWO. If there was no NWO there would
be no Monday Night Wars and/or DX. Now for nothing more than conversation I
offer the hypothetical of: If there had not been a striving competitor like the
WCW where would WWE had gone next if there wasn’t a strong enough competition?
Possibly straight to the PG Era that we are in now.
WWE once had a striving
competitor in TNA, and with recognition they were able to change itself for a
signature look. In it’s most popular life form they had the UFC styled,
six-sided ring and the star power for the video game (only after the first),
but that ship may have sailed as they continue with the lackluster gimmicks.
The non-believable, but very athletic talent doesn’t quite even itself out in
the game of Pros vs. Cons. TNA had a lot of star power, but didn’t showcase it,
nor did they capitalized off of it to the best of their ability. If either TNA
shapes up enough to compete with the mainstream visibility and likability of
the WWE since they already have some great talent. Or another company that’s
under the NWA umbrella looks to compete with the powerhouse that is WWE.
A lot can be done with televised
wrestling to be catapulted into the mainstream like it once was, just as much
that can be done with the WWE to send them into the next era of wrestling for
better or worst. Life is a cycle and until we see something new again from
televised wrestling whether from WWE or elsewhere we’ll stay in this stagnant,
slow moving PG era and keep seeing everything that we’ve seen before that may
not have been able to work before.

Trev Rich "Sometimes"
Trev Rich drops another track that lets you in his mind state of the moment titled Sometimes. This track is just to hold us over until tomorrow when Rain In The Summer is set to release.
The Guest
With this eerily thrilling trailer you can expect nothing but to be sitting on the edge of your seat as you watch waiting for the next thing to happen.
"Unbroken"
Who would've thought that Angelina Jolie would try her hand at directing after 2011's In the Land of Blood and Honey, it may have the sweetest title ever (pun intended) but the watch wasn't exactly for some. If you fail the first time and you have the means to try again, do so is the Hollywood way, and that is just what Angelina Jolie does with Unbroken. The films seem to be pretty similar but one can only judge by the full film not just a trailer all with the that said Unbroken looks to have more intensity and more relativity to American.

Music: J.Cole "Be Free"
With all that's happening in Ferguson, Missouri J. Cole releases a truly heartfelt record in the capacity of someone victimized because of the color of his skin, a grieving friend and person pleading for his life. This following the death of the black teenager Mike Brown due to what is said to be a wrongful killing of a scared kid fleeing from the police and then giving up out of fear of being shot again just to get executed.
Video: Michael Jackson "A Place With No Name"
No the greatest Michael Jackson video not even the best posthumous video of the King of Pop. The video is based on the concept of the song itself with an actor acting it out wit clips of old footage of in a desert like location.
Music: Emanny "Keep Tellin' Her"
After a short drought of Emanny music the man himself releases a new track produced by Remo The Hitmaker. It's different than what we're used to from Emanny but good music is still good music when it's Emanny.
