THis is Probably the most heart wrenching acts of responsibility i have seen from any design / urban street company ever. They collaborate and take pieces of Homeless peoples lives , gifts , ebb and place them on garmets and give 100 % of the proceeds to them... Dayum Dayum Dayum ...sniffling...
This video belows touchs on the collaboration between The Tenderloin Project and San Francisco-based Black Scale, as they release 2 new tees and a hat from The Tenderloin Project, both welcoming the new Black Scale flagship store. The campaign will help raise money for the Tenderloin Community of San Francisco. Video and photography was done by Sean Desmond.
Earlier this week SAFARI-BLACK And anyone tuning into the Black Entertainment Network witnessed the biggest travesty in the history of hip hop . The BET AWARDS , now let us be clear SAFARI has nothing against the dudes from the bottom, but that show or for the most part was the Biggest Act Of Coonery . You literally could not make out the English of the artisted pegged to perform by the shows directors, Excluding great acts Like goodie Mob the show highlighted the new Black "cooning" or the rebirth of the "Coon" Its also no secret That Safari-Black is A Grass ROOTS hip hop artist but that show was beyond evolution it was a million steps back to THe Jim Crow Entertainment Era . THE Show birthed the Idea for THE EULOGY which is A Memorial Service of The COONERY THAT took place that night .
The Eulogy is a song in Which SAFARI-BLACK BODIES , MURDERS ,EXECUTES The ignorant stereotype (THE MODERN MAINSTREAM RAPPER) that's being marketed by major record companies. ( Studio drug dealers , Imaginary mobsters , synthetic Gangsters) who secretly play scrabble and partake in Sudoku ! In the last few years what first spawned as a music dominated by artist of Southern Local has become a full fledged AMOS and Andy Minstrel Show.....Lets make it clear that He is not singling all southern artist or artist from any section of the map for that matter. This song is about the COONS , all coons North South East or West . Feelings hurt? Ask your Nana for a Hug .Hence this song proves that terribleness can spawn something of the opposite paradigm. So please dress up and pay your respects to the mcs He Will Eulogize, lyricall Embalm tonight/day (ALL MY VAMPIRES TUNE IN AT 12:00 A.M. EST FOR THE DEBUT) -CHAIRMAN LEE A & R OF GLOBALTHREDZ RECORDINGS
I remember when i was young and very poor i might add i adored Bennetton clothing so much . It was so out of reach financially and one day it hit me that what i loved most was the shade of green they always used as its been my favorite color since childhood ...Just randomness thats all this post is...very Random but thats just me...
This post is just on some flashback to "back n the day" . My best friend and i were speaking the other day and this gum came up. I told her how I used to chew a whole pack cause i would only chew as long as the sugar stayed in the stick or i would just keep jamming it in my mouf (yes i said mouf not Mouth) God my mother would kill me if she read this for admitting about eating the whole pack and saying mouf :<)
In Listening to music we sometimes run across people that have more to offer than just a quick spin. Being an artist i am ever aware of the change in climate in terms of giving your peers/cohorts/competition props. Now its called D34K riding but before it was called B-Boying supporting a collective movement . Now don't get me wrong we all hear music that we just are not feeling for some reason or another and that is fine music is objective. We listen to music to escape to "get us free" , to forget that breakup that job loss. Music is a family member to me , i see colors , i smell smells i get chills ....i have a lifelong relationship with music a common law wife music is. With that said i am yielding a more verbal approach to music post. I don't claim to know PHRAIM but his music will take into more than just sounds for equipment ....it will take you into auditory holism...Listen up
Today is such a wonderful day for me , Last month i celebrated 10 years Vegan , The choice i made all those years ago is one that i benefit still in every second that i breath . One once asked me do you think you can live together ? I advised i cannot cheat death but i will live the highest quality of it in my duration. Please enjoy the videos from my friends and yours truely "SAFARI-BLACK" AKA. SAFARI-BLACKANKHAMUN ...LIVE WELL

Here it is peoples THE new SAFARI-BLACK MIXTAPE SINGLE !! "THE ART OF LOVE " FT. HORUS -HERU AND ELLIOT NICOLS .

SO IT GETS MAD WARM ONE DAY LAST WEEK , AND ALL THIS HUMIDITY COMES OUTTA NOWHERE IN THE DEAD OF WINTER AND...MY BODY DECIDES TO REVERT TO WHEN I WAS A 11 . SEE MY DOCTER TOLD MY MOM " HE PLAYS THREE SPORTS , HE WILL GROW OUT OF IT IN A FEW YEARS " YES I USED TO BE A JOKE CONTRARY TO YOUR BELIEF BUT I WAS UNTIL 10TH GRADE BUT I DIGRESS . BUT ANYWAYS I HAVE BEEN WEEZING , COUGHING AND DAMN NEAR PASSING OUT LIKE AN OLD LADY IN A BAPTIST CHURCH DOWNSOUTH AFTER CATCHING THE HOLY GHOST LOL : ) . SO I SIP CHAMMOMILE TEAS , EAT SLIPPERY ELM EUCALYPTUS THROAT DROPS AND STAY IN THE SHOWER FOR SEEMS LIKE AN HOUR AT A TIME BREATHING THAT STEAM . WHAT IS THE MORAL OF ALL IN WHAT IM SAYING....YOU ARE NEVER TO GOOD FOR ADVERSITY BREATH DAMNIT BREATH !!
WELL FROM LISTENING TO ANY OF MY TRACKS YOU CAN TELL I AM ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT FREEDOM AND GETTING FREE...BUT SELDOMELY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPERIENCE IT OR WATCH IT...65% OF ALL PRISON BEDS ARE HELD BY BLACK AND LATINO BROTHERS...I DONT CARE IF ITS JUST ONE GETTING FREE AND RECIEVING JUSTICE THAT ALONE IS ENOUGH FOR ME TO CELEBRATE.....

POINT IN CASE IMMA A SNEAKERHEAD FOR LIFE ! I WILL BE 85 (GOD WILLING) ROCKING THE ILLEST KICKS THESE ARE NEXT CAUSE ITS ONLY RIGHT TO CELEBRATE (SAFARI) BLACK HISTORY MONTH LOL

I HAVE BEEN PRETTY MUCH A SPECTATOR WHEN I CAME TO THE ELECTION , AS I HAVE NEVER TRUSTED AND PUT GREAT FAITH IN POLITICIANS...I HAVE ALWAYS FELT THEY ARE IN-DEBTED TO THE POWERS THAT PLACE THEM THERE MOST PEOPLE FEEL ITS THE PEOPLE BUT ULTIMATELY CONTROL LIES IN THE HANDS OF THE FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTING FORCES BEHIND EACH CANDIDATE...THAT IS WHO I WANT TO MEET , CAUSE THAT WILL TELL ME EVERYTHING..
1ST OFF HOPEFULLY TIME FINDS EACH OF YOU IN PERFECT PEACE , JOY AND HAPPINESS...NOW I JUST HAD A CUP OF BLUEBERRY JUICE AND A BOWL OF MULTIGRAIN STRAWBERRY CEREAL SO IM GOOD AND PROLLY READY TO HIT THE COUCH LOL. WHAT WILL THIS YEAR BRING...IM ANXIOUS CAUSE LAST YEAR DOES NOT DEFINE US . I AM SO THANKFUL TO BE ALIVE RECESSION OR NO RECESSION I STOOD BENEATH THE STARY SKIES TWO NIGHTS AGO MARVELING AT THE UNIVERSE WONDERING EXACTLY HOW IT ALL CAME TO BE.. TIME IS A BEAUTIFUL THING..NEW YEARS EVE HAS NEVER BEEN A REALLY HUGE EVENT , BUT ON THE OTHER HAND I ENJOY SECOND CHANCES... SO NO RESOLUTIONS HERE JUST A MORE INTENSE EFFORT AT BEING THE MOST RESPONSIBLE HUMAN BEING THAT I CAN BE. SEVERAL MUSIC PROJECTS ARE DROPPING THAT I AM EXCITED ABOUT THE FIRST PROBABLY VALENTINES DAY. WHILE MANY SCREAMED LAST NIGHT I DODGED THE NIGHT IN PRESERVATION OF MY VOICE FOR SATURDAYS STUDIO SESSION...I SPENT THE EVENING IN MEDITATION , COMPOSING AND ACCESSING . I HOPE THE UPCOMING YEAR BRINGS FRUITATION TO ALL HOPES DREAMS AND APSIRATIONS OF EACH PERSON READING THIS ....LIVE WELL AND WALK THE RICE PAPER LITTLE GRASSHOPPER HA HA HA HA !!!
