Hey wassup peepz,
This Cedric. well this week, Was pretty much one of the most exciting weeks of my life and one of the most fufilling. I know most of you are wondering what the title means, well I'll get to that later on. Well this week I learned some very valuable lessons that I'll probably carry on for the rest of your life. Well about the title. First, "Metro-Town" was a 4-day program that I attended this week and it taught many young people the value of choosing words and selecting the right words so that you don't offend anyone. I know from experience that people can say some pretty Harsh things, from friends, Church members, School Members, Community Members, etc. I mean it's all in the way you choose your words. I mean in my opinion we should not use words to abuse or try to embarass or try to hurt someone because it is not Cool. Sometimes people may not know they are doing it. As a matter of fact, me and my cousin Kelvin were talking about this situation and we determined that we REALLY didnt use negative words when describing or talking to someone (besides my little cuz Kris), it's usually the people in our life that we talk to that offend us more than we do them, and we forgave them because they didnt know that they were doing it, so we'd juss ignore it so no controversy would arise. Sometimes it takes people listening to actually understand what's being said. I listen more to what my friends advice are than my friends listen to me. So in my opinion it's always good to have someone you can go and get advice from, but when the other person needs advice don't juss say "okay" or or anything, just listen and learn and help (just like they help u). Any-How, Music, this week I ACTUALLY STARTED my album, with a song called "Don't Care" it's an R&B song about not caring what people say about your relationship, and that you should juss ignore the negative feedback you may obtain. So I will be releasing a snippet when I finish the song later on this week. Yeah and the meaning part of this was basically ending this blog post saying that EVERY word has meaning, it's juss how u use it.

Thrive.Thirst.Thank.
Hey wassup people, its me again, reflecting on things that I just have been thinking about. Even though this doesnt work, I want to apologize to everyone who this may offends (I don't know how, but it ALWAYS does).
Thrive.
Thrive to be the best. Be better than the first and thrive to leave a challenge for the next. There are times when your survival is all you have, and the word "survival" is difficult.Life is full of deaths and tolls and many obstacles, but its how you pass and obtain your own knowledge of getting around these obstacles that allows you to thrive. Thrive is for the person who knows not how to survive. Thrive is for the person who is trying, but gets beat down by harsh words or daily set-backs. Thrive is for the person who is not well "looked upon". Thrive is for the outcast of a group, ya know, the one everyone thinks is "weird", even though there is not definition for "normal". Thriving is for that artist,athlete,musician,doctor,lawyer who seems not to be the best in their field, but seems to bring something to the game. Thrive.
Thirst.
Thirst is to want. Thirst for knowledge as if it was the last cup of water in the whole world. Sit back and listen to the elderly as they give knowledge and quench your mind of hasty world desires.Thirst for talent. Thirst learning what your purpose in the world would be. Without thirst there is no need to drink. Thirst is for the person who may not have the best talent in the world, but utilizes what god gave them. Thirst is for someone who doesnt have the talent but would rather trade their god-given talent for another that they practice the most. Thirst is for the desire to be better than yesterday and be better than last week. Thirst is for the person who works while everyone is sleeping. Thirst is for that extra mile you run just to get better. Thirst is for the challenge that someone puts upon themselves so they get better. Thirst.
Thanks.
Thanks is to be grateful. Thank all who have helped come this far. Be grateful that you made it this far, because who knows where you could be without all the events. Be thankful for all the good moments in your life. Don't shun the bad times, because they helped you get where you are today; and if where you are today is not acceptable, thank god for letting you understand that fact. Thanks to all the inspiration in your life, and passion. Thanks to the knowledge you do know and hoped to learn more of. Thanks to your well being and not complaining. Thanks for the people that just drive you crazy because who infact is sane. Thanks is for that humanitarian who gives back to the world. Thanks if for the people that change someones life through a prayer,a word, a kiss, or advice. Thanks is for those people who do not run from the homeless but endow them with money. Thanks is for all those times someone has hated on you and you didnt care. Thanks if for not letting someone bring you down, but infact pushing you forward. Thanks is for that person who cares about others and is a giver. Thanks to the philanthropists. Thanks to the people who are strong. Thanks to the teachers. Thanks to the good moms and dads who ACTUALLY stay with their children. Thanks is for the child who feels good about themselves no matter what. Thanks is for the children who believe in something. Thanks.

The Adjacent A's
Hey wassup people. Sorry for not "Blogging" in a second. I had to let things Cool Down since the last note. Well I want to discuss a few things on this blog like: The Last Blog, Music, and Life [in general]. Well, on the last blog I said somethings that were pretty harsh. I want to formally apologize again to anyone that really gave a crap about what was said. and That is where I end that part of the discussion. Next, music wise, I have been going hard on this writing shiz. I have written two new songs and they are some shizzzz. One is called "Look Into The Stars", it's a ballad that is definitely and Billboard 100 #1 Hit. The other song is called "Heart-Break" and I am not done with that one yet, almost though. I am in the process of working on another joint called "Amnesia", so I'll prolly post up a vid of me doing that song. Speaking of vids, for some reason KYTE has decided to not allow chatting any more. I am working on changing this feat. Well, um....lately in Life [generally] everything has been seriously out of whack. I mean friends have dueled for superiority. I have 5 life lessons I want to share on friendship that could help some people with the relationships in their life:
1) Friendships are relationships that are meant to endure hardships, testing the durability of the friendship. So don't let a friendship slip away easily.
2)A Friend is someone who cares and shares, not who wares and tares.
3)Love all your friends equally and be honest at all times, to avoid conflict.
4)Friends should understand one another or they wouldn't necessarily be called Friends.
5)Times change, Seasons Change, But True Friends last a lifetime.
Well that was pretty much it for this blog [post], see you guys on the flip side,

Crazy.Collective.Cool.
Hey wassup everybody. Lately, the only way I could describe my life is in three different categories. These categories describe the way I have been feeling in the past months, and I am going to reveal and vent on this blog update if that is fine with you all.
Crazy
Crazy is for those people who thought it was funny to think they are above anyone and judge others who are different than themselves. To ridicule over 25 different people and half of the statements given being negative is wrong. But who am I to judge. Crazy is for all those people who thought it was funny to purposely hurt someone and not apologize for it. For all of you have a problem and won't seek professional help. Crazy is for those times when I doubt the human civilization's choice in music and sanity. Crazy is for those people who enjoy the song "stanky leg", which is very demeaning and shows how far away from the classic music styles of the greats that have come before such as : Sam Cooke, Aretha Franklin, Billie Holliday, Ray Charles,and many other African-American musicians that have defied the odds. Crazy is for those people who call people out of their names. "White" referring to an African-American who withholds themselves in a proper manner. "Lame" or "Dumb" even "Retard" showing how unsympathetic our society is towards the mentally unstable. Crazy is for this year so far, which hopefully will turn it's ways around.
Collective
Collective is for those hard times in which you must keep your composure when feeling insulted in front of other people. Colletive is for a debate that you know you have won and the opponent swears to differ. Collective is for those times that you can't make out what emotion you feel but you know your feeling something deep down inside. Collective is for those days, you wish weren't days, but only mere moments in your life that you could pass by. Collective is for secrets that tear into your soul because they have been kept long. Collective is what it takes for you to wake up every morning and create a phony expression of happiness for the world to see. Collective is what it takes for you to keep when you walk past and you feel your name whispered in another person's ear. Collective is the fake way you withstand the constant fatal blows that life strikes you with.
Cool
Cool is when a girl finally realizes that it's not about the dread-head, with sagging pants, but about the future lawyer or doctor that's going to make a difference. Cool is when a 5 year old figures out how to ride a bike without training wheels. Cool is when a celebrity gets an award and when they accept the award the first words that comes out of their mouth is "First I want to thank God". Cool is for those times where you could've went in two different directions and you choose the road less traveled. Cool is for those times a teenager makes the right decision. Cool is when someone gives their time for a cause like: cleaning communities, helping the homeless, and even assisting the elderly. Cool is when you have time to sit and feel the cool wind breeze against your cheek. Cool is when you hear a song on your iPod,Mp3, or Radio that you can relate to. Cool is when the word "Love" is used and is really meant. Cool is when you can fall asleep and there are no worries in your life. Cool is when you bypass the day without a scar or any physical pain. cool is when you can say Thank You, Hear Thank You, and Watch the word Thank You form in someone's mouth. Cool is when someone gives someone money and doesn't expect to be payed for. Cool is when someone offers help for no exact reason at all. Cool is when girls give the guy in the corner time of day. Cool is when a guy can be straight up with a girl and not cheat on her. Cool is when someone realizes that Jesus is the Christ. Cool is when people spell music with a "q" because it adds soul or retrospective. Cool is for all the things "Lame", "Retarded", "ugly". Cool is when someone realizes their "Perfect-Imperfections" that they were given by God. Cool is for all the things that are different in everyday life.

'Til Death Do Us Part
Hey wassup people.
Well today I was thinking back on things. But first let me tell u what happened. Well my aunt has been in the hospital for about 2 weeks because she had cancer in the arm. Well yesterday they decided to put her on life-support, and we had a family meeting at my grandma's house after I got out of skool and it was about 25 people there and they told us about the life support, but they decided hours before to take her off and they said she would die in a few weeks,days, or months, and about 30 minutes later the doctor called and said she died. It kinda got to me cause that was like my favorite aunt, but life goes on and eventually people will get over it. But anyways on a better note, Valentines Day is coming up and I have a Valentine in mind, (Jasper & Cofel know who I am talking about) and I have a performace with the Sabbath Soulja's in 2 weeks and we have a practice/rehearsal tomorrow. I have been working on some music, and I have put up some music on the Phenom website, it's A Capella of what the song actually is going to sound like, but I wanted you give you guys something to go on, and I hope u guys enjoyed the Phenom updates we posted a few weeks ago. I apologize for not updating in a LONG time, but we have some stuff coming soon. I really dont wanna take up 2 much time but, talk to u later,
