I just wanted to say that I'm so grateful for all the outlets that I've been so blessed with in my life. to be honest, I don't know where I'd be if I never danced, sang, or wrote. each of these three have given me opportunities to explore what this world has to offer, and without one, both, or the other -

life would be meaningless, and I would be of no worth.

even more so, thank you for watching, listening, and reading what I've been able to spit out and create from everything I go under and take up. it means so much more than you think. I will never be able to merely depict the words or explain any means of affection to proclaim my appreciation for it all. I forever stand for the fact that an artist always puts a piece of themselves in their work; thank you for taking a shot at that piece of my very soul within the depths and care yours. all is love y'all

got me up til 4 in the morning just to say how much I miss my company fam haha. but what's real is real cus I honestly do. all those 4+ hours of practices followed by the 513841+ hours of tearin up pho, bbt, Chinese joints, Denny's the friggen STREETS afterward were worthwhile to the fullest lol. each day becomes it's best when I'm with them: those kind of days where you can't fall asleep cus you don't want it all to end and you can admit your dreams are shit compared to what's really goin on. I swear, if you give us a chance, you'd agree with me too. I can't wait for what the future has in store for us!.. there's just so much that they all have to offer. such hungry and humble people, I couldn't have asked for anything better. I love my 247 fam. no matter what supposed 'greater' opportunities approach, you guys really are my family now. thank you for everything thus far.

hahaaa :$

Love, B

just speaking for myself

truth.

it's so hard to stay true to your beliefs when you've been incredibly blessed with such an open mind and a pure heart. I'll stand for everything that Talib is talkin bout in this clip, because I've either witnessed or been educated about it myself. if you really dig down deep to the root of it all, we all believe in the same things whether we practice them differently or not or have been following them from certain respectable people. see, I've been told by others that it takes so much of a person to attest to that and be unshaken, but why do I still find myself trembling from a place so unknown to me? out of fear? embarrassment? helplessness?? maybe it's a good thing after all, a reminder of that exact impartiality, of that openness You've created for me. soon I hope to know.

Love, B

"What we all do is art, you know? We are noticers, we’re sensitives, we notice the rhythms in certain things and we identify them, and then we coin terms for them, and most of the world is not able to keep up. But some people just have that innate thing that allows them to express themselves in a way the majority can follow. That’s when you’re affecting culture."
