Nowadays ever since 2010 Hip Hop & R&B have been reminiscing the glory days where music was pure, raw and gritty and told true stories from a real perspective good or bad. This was a era where the streets controlled the music and drug dealers was more than just dealers but businessmen as well.
The amount of money they made back then was record breaking and there was still a few loyal cats in the streets that lived by a certain code of respect then this was also the era where the streets got more dangerous than ever because of the movie Scarface and many society influenced fads separated even the best of freinds and the crack generation was born.

As of July 29, Microsoft officially released their much anticipated update to Windows 8.1- Windows 10. Starting from now up for the next year, it is free to upgrade from Windows 7, 8, & 8.1.
According to Tech Republic, "This removes at least one barrier to adoption among businesses, and it could be particularly advantageous for small to mid-size businesses (SMBs) by helping Microsoft stay competitive in the SMB space against Apple and Google who are ramping up their efforts for this audience.
The Windows 10 release signifies a shift in direction for Microsoft as its new leadership gains traction. However, it also brings many changes to the product itself.
Here's what your SMB needs to know about the latest Windows release."
Recently, the BET Awards gave an award to Sam Smith for Best New Artist which spark a conversation that led to this blog. In 2015, R&B always gets overshadowed by Rap and Hip-Hop. Can you remember when you just had an R&B song that shined on it's own. Sure, we have Janet Jackson back with a new single, Tinashe, Jhene Aiko, Tyrese,Robin Thicke, Justin Timberlake and many other artists. I mean there are some artists & groups but for the most part is it's mostly a collaboration between the three aforementioned genres.
Back in the 90's and earlier decades, R&B was not so sexual. Yes, the sex was there but the artists & groups also talked about love. We had hits like Jodeci- Feenin, 112- Cupid, SWV- Love Is Right Here, Jon B, Janet Jackson, Michael Jackson, Keith Sweat, the Leverts, and many other artists that put out great songs. Older R&B also focused on live instrumentation and it had no digital sound to rely on. You couldn't make beats on your laptop. Time in the studio and talent was needed for both instruments, singing, harmony, and lyrics. Now everything can be made on a laptop. Artists do not have to necessarily be in the same studio to collaborate as songs can be emailed and the other artist can go to their own studio and record their half and send it back for the completion of the song. There was more focus on quality. And concentration on making classics. Today's R&B is straight gimmicky.
R&B didn't just focus on love and sex. You had resonant songs like Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On?" and even though music does consider Michael Jackson "The King of Pop" that you had songs like "Off the Wall" and "They Don't Really Care about Us". Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is that the record labels had to change R&B music to become more sexual because sex, drugs, & violence sells so instead of talking about love; it's a microwave generation (they want it right now) that sex had to become the main focus with songs such as Bando Jones "Sex You", Pretty Ricky, & several other songs.
If we are bring back 90's haircuts then let's bring back 90's music!
This years San Diego Comic Con, Marvel Movies did not make an appearance having the last Comic Con debuting their plans for Avengers: Age of Ultron, their Phase 3 projects which would be Ant-Man which is coming out this weekend, the follow up movies for after Avengers which will be Captain America: Civil War, Thor: Ragnorok, & Avengers: Infinity War Parts 1 and 2 to name a few.
Warner Brothers took advantage of this years Comic Con to show trailers for their season 2 of the Flash, season 4 of the Arrow, their new show Legends of Tomorrow, Vixen: Animated Series, iZombie season 2 and; their movies for Batman Vs Superman: Dawn of Justice (see TRAILER HERE) and Suicide Squad.
Also, NBC released a trailer for their show Heroes:REBORN (TRAILER HERE). CBS released a trailer for their show Supergirl (TRAILER). Fox took this time to promote their new movies, the Fantastic Four reboot, Deadpool and the follow up to X-Men: Days of Future Past which will be X-Men: Apocalypse.
Lucasfilm promoted Star Wars: The Force Awakened with a panel discussion with the cast and director J.J. Abrams. Unfortunately, we were not treated to another trailer which will probably be released later this year. However, Lucasfilm was nice enough to promo via an behind the scenes video.
DC & Warner Brothers dropped trailer 2 at this weekend’s Comic Con which shows Bruce Wayne in Metropolis during Man of Steel’s epic fight between Superman and General Zod. Batman comes out of retirement to avenge those that were killed in the battle. We get to see a Senate oversight committee which they are holding Superman responsible for his confrontation with General Zod, Lex Luthor, and Wonder Woman.! Check it out!
One day before San Diego Comic Con begins DC & Warner Bros looks to fully take advantage of the Con this year showing exclusive footage of their movies for Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, 2016's Suicide Squad, and they are still planning a Justice League movie too. Latest photos show Superman & Batman staring down about to go at it, Superman presumably in Mexico during the Day of the Dead celebration, Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne with Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, and Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor with a wig on (a nod to Gene Hackman's Lex).
Director Zack Snyder says that there are consequences for Superman and General Zod's massive fight in Metropolis which cause catatrosphic damage to the city and most specifically Wayne Industries satellite was destroyed and an Wayne Industries Metropolis office which Bruce Wayne aka Batman did not take well too. So we can see the Caped Crusader use this as motivation for taking down Superman, an alien not of this Earth that Batman does not trust. We'll see how Snyder pulls this off with the two most iconic superheros going toe to toe. Gal Gadot will appear as Wonder Woman but let's see if Snyder creates a good movie and not cram too much into it.
