Focusrite: Grain of Thought

There's an energy within ourselves we've either never touched or never channeled. I believe we all have hobbies or activities we gravitate to that make us whole. Whether or not you've found a particular hobby, we all have the capacity to imagine and create.

Buddha said along the lines of "Life is a collection of thoughts". Now let me ask you this. Have you ever ignored a thought or idea? As ordinary people, we're often confined by things like work and school, but who really enjoys that? A nine to five job might be a necessity, but take your ideas to another level beyond the spectrum of normal life. Why? 'Cause why not!

Don't get me wrong, school is cool and it might be a positive outlet for individuals to find their calling in the world, yet I believe it's wrecking a part in us allowing ourselves to think outside the box. The idea of constantly following directions is extremely dull. Anyone can do that. 

Start a clothing line. Create music. Hone your weapon of a brain. Channel the negatives into positives and own your thoughts. Own it!

Earl Sweatshirt: Behind Solace

Image
OFWGKTA, multi-genre hip hop collective, emerged to the scene in 2009. Originally created by Tyler The Creator, the letters stand for Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All. The collective consists of seven members, one of them named Earl Sweatshirt. The Rapper's real name is Thebe Neruda Kgositstile. Odd Future shook the hip hop scene with their intensely explicit lyrics, non-dimensional beats and eerie video content. This tight knit collective of people branched off a whole new genre of music and continues to inspire artists around the world. At the rise of their fame, Earl Sweatshirt leaves to a therapeutic reform school in Samoa. Tyler would start a "Free Earl" campaign in his absence without his consent. As their career paths took different turns, the seven letters would soon fade down memory lane. Tyler and Earl, especially, were displayed as close friends through the media. As time progressed, the two would separate into their own lives. Sweatshirt would ...

Christopher Francis Ocean: Blonde

Image
Frank Ocean's musical talent is something of an old soul. From his early works of The Lonny Breaux to his latest album Blond, the artist's expansion in music has given us a piece of home. I started listening to Frank Ocean when mixtape, The Lonny Breaux, released in 2011. I've followed his music every step of the way and i'll cherish him and his music as a bi-sexual male. Later to find out he's a member of Odd Future in 2012, he'd continue to surprise me more and more in later years.  On August 20th, 2016 Frank Ocean released his album Blond following the album Channel Orange. Both great albums. This is more of an appreciation post of him and would encourage everyone to check out some of his music. His spacey, R&B, ambient music truly touches home base with me. Him as a singer/songwriter and featured rapper makes him an inspiration to spiritual freedom. He's also featured on A$AP's mob Cozy Tapes 2, Odd futures early works, and other ...

High Anxiety: CBD Oil

I'm sure most of you've smoked pot. Weed, marijuana, ganja, dro, dank, potato, potato. Call it what you want, you've either smoked the plant, tried it in some form, or heard of it. No surprises in our post-modern world. Getting high is a debatable topic on itself, but there's another substance extracted from hemp called Cannabidiol or CBD for short. THC alone has many medical benefits in treating conditions like appetite loss, chronic pain, and other serious medical conditions. CBD on the other hand, essentially counteracts the high you receive from smoking or ingesting high amounts of THC. Now you're probably thinking, why would I want to kill my high? Well, for one, there's a possibility of getting uncontrollably high, which CBD can help with, but there are some surprising medical benefits to CBD alone. Although THC does help with anxiety, it effects every individual differently. For more chronic anxieties like anxiety disorders, CBD can help to reduce t...
