June 25, 2009 we lost one of our GREATEST and probably the greatest entertainer of all times, Michael Jackson.  I just wanted to take the time to tell the world how I miss one of my favorite music artist in the world.  I don’t love his music because everyone else does, but love his music because of the work he has put into in and way it makes me feel.  Michael’s songs erupted emotion, entertainment, and creativity that is simply amazing and undeniable.  I just want to thank him and who have worked with him for creating such a legacy and archive with the people in the world to remember him by.  Thank you MJ.

Some of my all times favorite Michael Jackson songs are:

Leave Me Alone, You Are Not Alone, Beat It, Bad, Billie Jean, Jam, Black and White

I might create a cool playlist of these songs and more in the memory of Michael Jackson for the anniversary of his death, June 25, 2011.

excerpt from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Jackson

“Michael Joseph Jackson[1] (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American recording artist, dancer, singer-songwriter, musician, and philanthropist. Referred to as the King of Pop, Jackson is recognized as the most successful entertainer of all time by Guinness World Records. His contribution to music, dance, and fashion, along with a much-publicized personal life, made him a global figure in popular culture for over four decades. The seventh child of the Jackson family, he debuted on the professional music scene along with his brothers as a member of The Jackson 5, then the Jacksons in 1964, and began his solo career in 1971.”

Michael Jackson we miss you…Music is Love, and you have unite the world with your music.

Phone Number: When That Money Calls Then Everything Goes On Hold

The title of this blog post comes from one of my favorite songs of the moment by the Brooklyn new york rapper, “Fabolous” titled “Phone Number” off his 2011 mixtape, “The S.O.U.L. Tape“.

I am referring to this song by the fact of today, my job called me in to work. Some people on their days off refuse to answer their phone if their job calls them in to work, but not me. When money calls pretty much, because you are getting paid to work, I am definitely picking up. I absolutely value money and its effect on getting things done in life. Not only just money, but the feeling of working and contributing to a good notion of providing service to others.

One last thing, I believe that the more you work and the quality work you do, raises your value to potentially make more money. The funny thing about that also is there is an artist called Wiz Khalifa. and he has a song also which is called “Phone Number” (Cabin Fever Mixtape) originally the title of the song “Fabolous” remade the song from. Wiz has his own spin on the song, with a cool chorus that goes, “When I get paid my checks be looking like phone numbers”. The way this applies, is that I work hard everyday until one day my check will look like numbers. Pay checks in the millions would be a great achievement.

If it is your day off and your job calls do you pick up? Do you one day wish your check paychecks look like phone numbers?
