Unlikely samples? Pac Div & Nas?
I'm not to sure about this but the Young Black Male beat sounds similar to Nas' The world is yours beat. I listened to it a couple times (because its actually good) and the thought came to me..."hmmm I think this is a sample, and if not a sample its a cover of The World is Yours". Anyway, check it out for yourself and let me know what you think.
Listen to the whole thing but the change of song and beat comes on around 2:22
BONUS:
The world is your is sampled from Ahmad Jamal I Love Music..enjoy :)

Inspiring
CEO of Xerox corp Ursula M. Burns came to my school to speak to the business students and I know it sounds cliche but it was inspiring. To know that a black WOMAN from the projects in NYC came from nothing to turn around a company and become CEO really makes know there is no excuse to not succeed. This is why I feel like people who say it's because they are a minority they cant get a good job or people that are always blaming the system for them not being successful is all just an excuse.
Do something with yourselves please, I know this is just one story but do some research and you will find many more.
Being a minority born in America you automatically have the most amount of opportunity in the world, I hate to see people waste it.

BP3: The Man, the Myth & the Mystery
There has been a lot of speculation about the Blueprint 3. Some say its going to fail, some say its going to be his best album yet. In my opinion it has the potential to be a culture changing event. The collaborations on the album speak for themselves. Jay z is looking to relate to the younger generation via artists that are in the game right now. After the D.O.A track (Death of Autotune) many people and artists felt like Jay-z directly insulted them and wasnt relevant anymore. Now seeing the track listing with people such as Mr. Hudson, Drake, J. Cole, and Kid Cudi its clear that this album will bring the old school and new school together. Not only does Jay-Z collab with new and up and coming artists but he also has recognizable artists such as Kanye West, Alicia Keys, Riahanna, Young Jeezy, Pharrel and Swizz Beats. Personally I believe that if there was anyone that could could bring the old school and new school together seamlessly, its Jiggaman. While the collabs are a big deal by themselves, the two songs that have been released have shook the world of Hip-Hop. First was D.O.A, Jay-z just wanted to get a clear point across: everyone is using autotune and no one is being original this is not what Hip-Hop is suppose to be. It created the perfect album buzz, even though there were many tough critics, theres no such thing as bad press. Next up was "Run this Town" featuring Riahanna and Kanye West, two of the biggest names in the industry right now; powerful lyrics, powerful beat, powerful people. Jay-z knows how to create a buzz by releasing songs and videos one by one and creating an air of mystery around the Blueprint 3. This album is highly anticipated with a release date of September 11, 2009 exactly 8 years after the first Blueprint album. Get yours as soon as possible.

I used to lover H.E.R...ahead of its time
Just listening to some Common and I used to love HER and I started to think..this song came out in 1994 and it is more relevant now than ever. He talks about how the man told "her" if she gotta image and a gimmick she could make money and she did it like a dummy...this is the truth man.
around 2005-6 this is exactly what rappers did
"Now I see her in commercials, shes universal
She used to only swing it with the inner-city circle
Now she be in the burbs lickin rock and dressin hip
And on some dumb shit, when she comes to the city
Talkin about poppin glocks servin rocks and hittin switches
Now shes a gangsta rollin with gangsta bitches"
Want to know something? I think Hip Hop is going back to that innocence and fun loving nature. Before all the guns and killing people and selling drugs. And no im not talking about what you hear on the radio, forget what the mainstream media makes us listen to. I'm talking about waiting online for your favorite artist to drop his mixtape. Listening to people no one has heard of just because you LIKE their music. The era of the mixtapes is back...just digital. The little random shows in small places also contributes. I have no problem with the radio not playing my artists...keeps the exclusivity. Now they all just need to find a way to make money off of not going mainstream lol

RIngtones can tell you a lot about a person..
So I decided to do a social experiment via Twitter. Me and Mike had a convo about how you can tell a lot about a person from their ringtone. Most of it was about what type of music they listen to (go figure) but there are also other factors and that is what my experiment was about. Im only making a generalization about them based on their ringtone.
*Disclaimer: This is just for fun and I have exaggerated these profiles a little but Im sure we all know people like this lol
Suspect: Hypebeast
Ringtone: Some artist that big on the internets.
What it says: They wear Nike SB, bight colors, sag pants, and are up on the brands that go along with that culture (Hundreds,Surpreme,Gshock Watches,Nike SB,OG Jordans,AnythingKanye...).They would do anything to "break necks" and never miss an opportunity to show off their sneakers. They would do ANYTHING to get their hands on their grails. They also think Jay-Z should shut his Old behind up (blasphemy smh)
Suspect: The cute girl.
Her ringtone: Ether (or any hardcore rap music)
What it says: Shes not that innocent. She probably also has in depth knowledge of Hip Hop and listens to things that would surprise you. Expect this girl to be different and a little crazy.
Suspect: The other cute girl
Ringtone: Beyonce, Rhinna, any ne Pop or R&B
What it says: She probably listens to the TOP 40 hits and doesnt mind tuning into the radio. Her knowledge of hip hop doesnt run to deep but she could care less.Her ringtone blasts loudly in inappropriate places and annoys people because they have heard the song a million times.
Suspect: Club Goer
Ringtone: Swag Surfing
What it says: If your from up north, its probably a novelty ringtone and you get drunk in the club and sing it at the top of your lungs. If you are from the south you probably wear 5X tees and dickey shorts and get drunk in the club and sing it at the top of your lungs. If your are a female from the south, you probably have tattoos on your arms/thighs/neck and get drunk in the club and sing it at the top of your lungs.
Suspect:Loner
Ringtone: Some underground artist that no ones ever heard of.
What it says: This person is always trying to be different and not go with the flow. They probably dont listen to the radio because they think its corrupted by mainstream garbage. They get mad when favorite rappers go mainstream and "forget where they came from". They are probably also outcasts and have few friends.
Suspect: Anyone
Ringtone:Chingy
What it says: This person is extremely out of date. They probably had the ringtone since the song came out. They are probably more occupied by school and or work and possibly dont watch much TV either. (they can also fit into the OTHER cute girl profile)
Suspect: 24-35 ish people
Ringtone: Jayz Nas Big Pac
What it says: Old school hip hop head. They HATE new music, tight pants, and bright colors. They believe the glory days where the 90s and most likely get pissed hearing to Drake on the radio. They believe that there is no lyrical content in todays "hip hop" and are tired of hearing rappers talk about their feelings. Their slogan is "it will never be the same". They also wouldnt call it hip hop.
Suspect: Anyone
Ringtone: Something with Autotune
What it says: Not up on real hiphop, wants to pop champagne and listen to dj webstar and ron browz. Probably also wants Jay-Z to shut his old behind up(again...blasphemy)
Suspect:Anyone
Ringtone: None
What it says: Either they are not technology inclined, they dont care or they feel like this:
