Gray Skies

Skies aren't gray when she is around..
Just looking at her can turn my frown upside down
She's like the old J's that I missed on sale..
She's like fine wine.. She just gets better in time..
I'm on a mission to make you mine..
You should let me hold you down
And I promise I'll never let you down
You're the starry skies above me
And the skies are never gray..
Because everytime I see you.. You make my day.

DRAKE Signs to Young Money

I was expecting this. I'm glad he did too. This is like the new Jay-Z and KanYe situation. Remember when Jay-Z was on top of the rap game and then he signed Yeezy? Thats how I feel about this. Lil' Wayne is on top of the charts and Drake is his protege or whatever and I've been following Drake since day one. I feel like WE made it. I'm truely happy for Drake and I'm proud. So that's that. I was throwing up the Roc when Yeezy made it.. Now I'm gonna be sayin' YOUNG MOOOOOLA BAAAAAAABY!!!!

Adventure..

yesterday was craaazy. i was up for 22 hours.. first i was off to summer school. that's always boring. so after that.. me, Jake, Jahi, and 'Dre went to get so grub before practice so we hit up the Potbellys in Lincoln Park.. It was super good but I'm glad I didn't have to do anything but run a lap and stretch in practice. Then after practice. A couple of guys from the team and me went to Subway to chill and eat. (I didn't eat. I was still full from Potbellys) and the guy from Subway tells us that Michael Jackson died...

Man, I was kinda sad. MJ was the greatest who ever did it. Not Elvis, not The Beatles.. MJ stands in a class alone. May he rest in peace. and he will forever Walk on the moon.

But after Subway. Jake, Cruz, Kamil and me go to the train station on our way downtown to meet up with JT. On the train we're talking so much we miss our stop so we get off and try again. After we get off we stop in Leaders 1354. Good stuff in there. I gotta go back for a shirt soon. We leave LDRS. and go to Sports Authority to look for some football stuff and wait for JT. So after being in Sports Authority for like 30 minutes and still waiting for JT we leave. Cruz goes home.. And we chill in McDonalds. We're all broke.. But Kamil gets two cheeseburgers and we chill and play some stupid game (I WON) and we leave Mickey D's. Go to Portillos and Jake eats there. And we saw some pretty hot girls in there and after about an hour JT shows up. And we go back to Sports Authority.

Then we leave back out. We head to Hooters. Me and JT eat some wings.. SHOUT OUT TO MY SERVER.. SHANNON. I'LL SEE YOU IN TWO YEARS! =)


Jake decides he wants to go see Transformers 2 so we all go along.. It took us like 30 minutes to find the theather.. Kamil almost got hit by a car. Haha.

Transformers was really good and MEGAN FOX IS MY FUTURE WIFE. She's perfect. =)

So we head to the train after the movies.. we almost missed our train because of Jake. But we made it. Then we're all waiting for our busses to go home. Me and JT end up waiting like 2 hours and end up taking a cab home.. I owe JT money.. DANG. But I got you.

That night was great. WE DID SOME CRAZY STUFF AND I LEFT SOME MINOR DETAILS OUT BUT..

LAST NIGHT WAS GOOD.

The Clipse ft. KanYe West- Kinda Like A Big Deal

For: You

Told her from the beginning love. You can't game pimp..
Sorry Naughty girl. I don't know what it is..
Mind is going 10 different directions.
And all of them are thoughts about you
I wanna call the plays.. But I'm still on the bench.
She know the motto.. When I came I went..
Because hiding there emotions like cars with the tent..
This is the place where I know I can vent..
But naughty girl.. you got so many men..
I don't even know where I am going to fit in
I don't like loose girls so you gotta tighten up.
Now I see you once.. If I'm lucky every couple months..
I be with this music.. and you always coupled up..
Everytime I see you it remind me of them things.
Everytime I see you it remind me of my dreams.
When I say you fine.. I'm just sayin' astheics.
You're kinda a faccade....
You're kinda like a criminal at large.. Hard to capture..
Look at your smile.. It makes me go wild..
But chasing a girl.. Is just not my style

To: ______

I got this empty heart I want to lend you
I told you that you were a beauty and now you're looking like the beast..

Kobe..

Yeah. We did it. Finally after 7 years without a championship we are once again on top the mountain. 2009 NBA CHAMPION LOS ANGELES LAKERS.. I'm happy for Kobe, Lamar, Pau, Fish, J-Farmar. The whole squad. And MSU alum Shannon Brown. haha Michigan State.


But yeah, today was decent.. I came home parents aruging over nothing. They need to quit that forreal it's annoying. and my dad is forever antagonizing me about everything it's really annoying. He needs a hobby.

Sunday- Kobe & LA..

I'm at the crib. Patiently awaiting for game 5 of the NBA Finals where my Los Angeles Lakers will take on the Orlando Magic. We're up 3-1 and it looks like we'll take home the championship for the 15th time. Ahh man I love the Lakers. I'm from Chicago. I love the Bulls.. But I love no team more than my Lakers. Kobe is going to kill tonight. I know it.. Along with Fisher. Pau. Odom and FARMAR!!! haha. Man I wanted them to win it in LA. But hey, we'll take it in front of the Orlando fans.


But on a different note.. I just got rid of a serious headache I feel so much better now. I went to church today and all that. My mom let me drive to church. and she is always so critical about my driving. She ALWAYS has something to say. It's so annoying. But when she's not in the car I stay bumpin' my Drake, U-N-I, Dom Kennedy, Big Sean. and of course, KanYe West. So today has been decent.. And now I'm waiting for the game. I'm getting pumped up by watching this documentary on Kobe by Spike Lee and I'm watching highlights on NBA TV. Let's go LA.

The Pack Video

Hoes In This House from Aris Jerome on Vimeo.

I love this video. This is one of my favorite groups. The Pack is so dope to me. Lil B what up bro! The Pack stay killin' with the songs..

ps. That Pink Dolphin shirt Young L had on is so dope.. They should send some.

It's Showtime..

It's showtime.. Life is like a play. Summer 09 is here.. and I'm still in school. haha. Summer School isn't that bad. My girl fetish had my credits looking super lame.. I gotta get my mind of the girls and get my mind of the books. I gotta start blogging more often.. and I'm gonna get a camera soon and document my day-to-day life. But this summer is going to be so dope though. I have this girl I'm interested in.. She wants to go out.. Thats exciting. And another girl kinda likes me.. Thats a good feeling..


Football camp starts next week too. From June 22nd to July 29th... GREAT.. Football was great and fun.. And now it feels more like a job and a lot less fun. I played to have fun.. Not to work. But Imma still play. Then July 30th I think.. I'm going to New Orleans.. That should be fun.. So much fun.. But this summer is going to be filled with studio time. girls. dates. movies. football. and chillin'.. emphasis on the girls part. haha..

The School Year 08-09

Dang.. This school year has been one of the best of my life.. Like really. It's amazing how a year changes things.. I WOULD DO A QUIZ LIKE EVERY OTHER PERSON but that's just not me. I wanted to really tell people how great this school year was. Like I thought "Dang another year at LP.. Great" Well it was really great. I met a lot of new people. alot of new great people. great friends. Like Eric, Daniel, Jahi, Huy, Jake, and so on and so forth. And a lot of you guy's I thought I could never be friends with and get along with. But I guess we did. I fell for so many girls.. But I really fell for one girl.. It didn't really work.. And we're just friends and I enjoy her words. But everything about this school year was great. From the 808s to the heartbreaks to the football games to the classes to the everything..


The school year started great.. Football was good. Classes were good. Everything was good. Last year I was a lame I guess. Nobody knew my name.. Most people didn't even know I went to this school. And now I've played a little football. Spit some hot verses.. and upgraded to a better style. Now I have more friend than I've ever had. I think I have new brothers. Or I consider them to be on that level. I got closer to some people I knew last year and grew apart from some friends last year. I guess on the mission to be the coolest nigga. lol. But seriously.. Shout out to my guy's Malcolm, Derek, and Ross. Hell I'm even friends with some of the thugs. I guess I get along with a lot of people.

I lost some friends along this ride we call high school. and I've gained some really great ones. and I'm cool with a lot of people.. Classes were kinda suckish and a lot of stuff got lame. I did a bunch of thing I wasn't supposed to.. Homecoming. Pink Party. Etc. I love this high school year.. then again I hate it.. But I'm really greatful for this school year. Everything I'm not.. Made me everything I am
