“And if there’s anyone out there who still doesn’t believe this constitutes a full-blown crisis, I suggest speaking to one of the millions of Americans whose lives have been turned upside down because they don’t know where their next paycheck is coming from.”
–Barack Obama
I am one of those Americans, and to be honest it’s scary. While I don’t completely agree with the current stimulus package ($838 Billion). But I do believe that something needs to be done NOW. We didn’t elect a man preaching change,to be a mediator of debate…we elected him to make change. Our president stepped out wearing a strong red tie, showing his urgency, and got down to business.
The final proposal holds these changes(and more) to the economy:
1. Americans who have lost their jobs through no fault of their own can receive greater unemployment benefits and continue their health care coverage.
2. We will also provide a $2,500 tax credit to folks who are struggling to pay the cost of their college tuition
3. $1000 worth of badly-needed tax relief to working and middle-class families.
4. More than 90% of the jobs created by this plan will be in the private sector
5. They’ll be jobs creating 21st century classrooms, libraries, and labs for millions of children across America. And they’ll be the jobs of firefighters, teachers, and police officers…

Congrats Asher! An artist that we’ve been highlighting since his mixtape (June) stirred the hip hop world. He’s a good guy, dedicated to his fans, and makes good music (even though this beat isn’t the original).
Enjoy, and peep the Cool Kids in the video.

So, the Grammy’s were fun (?) Some good performances, but as usual the awards were biased and not awarded to those deserving. My favorite performances were “Swagger Like Us”, as well as Radiohead, and Coldplay. Congrats to Wayne for best Rap Album.
Dope by definition
