Documentary Era

What kills the media? Media, itself. Actually, not so much on the creator but more so by the people who gets the right to play/ show the art these artist of media circle created. They over plays it and over sells it; that is what kills the media. Now days, we have so much easier access to contain media such as songs, movies, and shows,  these media industries are some what getting hurt so they are trying to figure out how to sell it without being illegally downloaded. So now, they mass produce many of things. I have recently been watch movie that has came out 2011 and 2012 and, even though I have a list of more movies to watch,  these movies that I am watching are really good. I mean, these movies are so good that if these movies came out with some times gap between them, they would surely be known as "Classics". The lady with Dragon Tattoo to The Descendants, Columbus Circle, London Blvd, and King's speech; these movies surely has a quality to be known as "Classic" movie worthy. But that has got me thinking,; if they are creating these master pieces in such short time period, has our understanding of master piece well known and drought down, what is this mean to the media? What is this means to movies? What happen to the value of Hollywood? What is the future for media?

Well, in this (C)loud generation, we are now use to having exactly what we want on our finger tip. We are YouTube generation, we are Google generation, we are Internet generation ; we seek for information and we hope to find it quickly and simplest way. We aren't the bone head we were in 90's where we bought music, went to theaters to pay for a new movie; we are kids of war and doom. Meaning, we are kids who are trying to be smartest one to survive, because we believe smarts will give you the shortcut to success. We are just training our thinking process like we are playing chess, know more so we can do something quicker and more effective. 

We are done with reality shows. Reality shows are ok but it really shows the dumb side of human nature. It is time for Documentaries. To train you thoughts and learn more. I mean, Knowledge is power, right? We have such great channels like History channel, discovery, national geography and others, and these are the genre that will be ruling the media circuit in 2013. We are almost like a soldiers training for war, and knowing more feels that it will help us to survive. Welcome to the Documentary Era.

Special: My Memory of You(R.I.P Melissa Fagin)

It was 8th grade that I moved to Redmond from Lynnwood. I didn't no anyone but people were nice to greet a foreign kid who still had an accent and weird style. I started to hang around Anthony and one day, I met you with Chris in a weird situation. But you were still funny, you were still gorgeous and you were great person to hang around. Ever since that we all became the 107 st./ block crew. Me with Omar, Phil, Ron, Anthony, and Chris, you with Ashley, Michaela, Moss, Stacy, Rachel; we were friends that were closer than just friends. We formed a family that we promised to be there when others needed help, motivation and support. I remember in 9th grade, I went to your house with Curtis and I think Ron and I remember the look you gave me and later on Curtis told me you liked how I looked . That maybe be take 254 at 9 PM to go back up the education hill to ask you out to be my girl. We dated 1 week but I still remember how me, you, Ron and Ash all walking around Redmond near Junio

My cellphone history

Image
I had a cell phone ever since I was in 8th grade. Not because my parents were rich and just wanted to spoil their kids, they gave us the phone because they worked all the time and, what do you expect, we wanted it for emergency reasons ;), right? Just like many of you, my first phone was Nokia and we would text, call and play snakes on it. We had to buy ringtones from third party that sounded really nothing like the song. But it was cool and it was new, so I loved it and it served the purpose. Nokia 3390                          But soon after, flip phone era was in. But, nothing really cool was            cool was coming out. It was smaller the better kind of era and it had            to be a flip phone, so I got a Samsung phone that was simple but ok            work with. More games were on it, ringtones became more realistic.            One thing I liked about this phone was that it had display section            on the front cover. Just in case, mom or dad called

Top 5 Favorite Rappers of PJ

Image
I listen to everything from Rap, Rock, Jazz, Classicial, Blues, Punk, Pop, R&B, Dub Step, EDM and even Folk (No country or Heavy Metal, sorry). But, at the end of the day, my favorite have to be Hip Hop/ Rap. Why? because even though, so many so called music aficionados believe rap isn't really music, rap convey message using slang and code and it really fascinate me of how much creative a person can get. But do not get me wrong; this doesn't mean I like all rappers. If anything, I am more harsh on rappers than a R&B singers. For me, rap got to me creative and unique. Rap got to convey a message that everyone goes through and let the fans relate to the lyrics. Rap shouldn't always be about Money, Cars, Blings and Hoes; I love intelligent rap that actually have a message and meaning. So here is my top 5 rappers. 1) Jay - Z: If you know me, this shouldn't come off as a shock; this guy is my idol. Yes, he does talk about money, cars, blings and hoes; but who does
