Selected enthusiast are being chosen for Revolutionary Massdrop Collabs | @Techcrunch

Massdrop‘s investors have argued that the group commerce site is more a community than a straightforward marketplace. Here’s one way that Massdrop is doing things differently — a new initiative called Massdrop Collabs. The startup has built specialist communities for folks such as audiophiles and mechanical keyboard fans, and it offers group-buying opportunities to those communities. With Massdrop Collabs, co-founder and CEO Steve El-Hage said the community can actually get involved in creating those products. READ FULL ARTICLE

New Years Resolutions! - Ready, Set, Take #ACTION | @TheN3xtNOW

Being the last #Tuesday of 2015, we are sharing our #NYEResolutions #LifeChanging Tips for all to have a #Prosperous2016 & a huge #Cheers in proceeding your #Dreams & your #Success! Take #ACTION - There is no Success if you do not Take actions to Succeed The Goals to New Years Resolutions can be based from your original 5 year goal plan or whatever Goal regiment you follow, at this point you should have accomplished a part of your original plan - Goals! Even more than that, in the process we have learned more effective and efficient ways to proceed! The main #Key to effective Goals / Resolutions is to not fail before you even begin to succeed! Don't BE DOOMED, #CREATE your #ACTIONPLAN Whether you are creating a New Goal & / or Resolutions to those goals here are a few tips to Taking Action Effectively in your New Years #Resolutions for 2016! 1) #READY? - Only set Goals that you are reasonably ready to take action in! (Don't scramble for non realistic goals) Sometimes taking a step to reach a goal as a resolutions is more reasonable. EX: Diet plan, to change a diet you are not going to completely change by quitting your present diet plan New years eve! but you can start to adapt to cut out preservatives, or bad habits starting January 1st, with the goal of changing your diet a full 360 degrees eventually by taking steps to the full change. 2) #BELIEVE - LOA - again law of attraction is a huge factor, you cant say you believe you can reach your resolutions if you are always speaking negative of them. EX: instead of saying "this will never work", "i can't", or "IF" - exclude negative speech of your goals & keep positive verbiage "I can do this", "I Got this", "I'm Focused"! NEED HELP with STAYING FOCUSED IN MINDSET: http://www.forbes.com/sites/amymorin/2014/11/06/taming-your-inner-critic-7-steps-to-silencing-the-negativity/ 3) THINK POSITIVE & CONSTRUCTIVELY OF setbacks Sometimes we may have setbacks, but as long as you continue to proceed fwd you will overcome and those setbacks will become so small that they will not even exist anymore! from a Set back, don't immediately think of yourself as a failure, as humans WE LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES CONSTRUCTIVELY BY EVALUATION OF WHAT THE SET BACK WAS AND IN LEARNING KNOWLEDGE IN PREVENTION OF IT! 4) #BUILD MENTAL #STRENGTH in Reference our last two post Eliminating the word "IF" & "You Control Your Happiness" You are in full control of your mind set, you are in full control of your future & a great New Years Resolution / goals! With that said our #Team send you lots of love & blessings to a #ProsperousNewYears #Happy2016 www.juelsofrome.blogspot.com | www.coolvsratednext.blogspot.com

Whether its Career, Humanity, Spirituality, Family, Friends we all have goals to reach and the #1 Solution to Succeeding is to "Change Your Mind Set!" Thanks to @DrOz & his Friend - Special Guest on today's show 12/29/15 @MichaelStahan - in Second segment of the show - Michael shares how he Wakes up in the morning in a happy vibe to have a Happy Day! (In this Segment, Michael shares his morning Joy, how he wakes to his favorite #tunes and dances his way through his morning to #Shower, #Breakfast, in starting his day!)
1. - Enjoy & appreciate the Present Moment Most of us when sad or upset are due to views of the past or a tragedy! - Train your mind that the past is the past, and if you need to cry, do so, let it all out and embrace it, face your fears, and take the time to educate yourself of your feelings and incidents, most of the time we put more pressure and blame ourselves for others mistakes! To let go sometimes, knowledge of right from wrong can help in this process! 2. - Connects inner purpose with outer effort. Search within your sole for your Purpose, embrace it, and take the time daily in routine & feeding yourself knowledge of the things you need to line up to accomplish your goal! The most important thing is your alive & you are able to accomplish your dreams & goals! YOU ARE UNIQUE, YOU ARE YOU AND NO ONE IS LIKE YOU, SO EMBRACE THAT & BE AWEMAZING! AS YOU ARE LIVE SINCERELY THROUGH THIS EXPRESSION! 3. - Accepts and embraces great challenges. When your mind is Challenged by duties that engage your purpose, then those great virutes, which would otherwise lay dormant, come to life and help you grow into your greatest self! - Awaken the Giant - marcandangel.com 4. - Self-disciplined. Choosing the things you have to do whether you like it or not, is self discipline, not everything you have to do are exciting, but with self-discipline, you train yourself to focus and get it done with a great reward of a #stronger #mindset of the task and #accomplishments at the end! 5. - Remains positive and focused through failure. FORGET About Failure! #Trying alone is huge #success whether its to pay off a #debt, get in #shape, start a #business, make a difference in the #world, etc, you have already achieved something wonderful by putting in effort of something worthy! 6. - Filters and channels anger effectively. To be Angry is easy, and Anger can cause more issues for you and everyone around you if not filtered! Put your anger in actions - directing toward specific problems into a productive action plan, rather than solving people or generalized situations. http://www.angermanagementresource.com/free-anger-management.html for more info on these resolutions: http://www.marcandangel.com/2013/03/10/7-traits-of-a-highly-effective-mindset/ http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0743269519/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0743269519&linkCode=as2&tag=marandang-20 Visit us: www.juelsofrome.blogspot.com | www.coolvsratednext.blogspot.com

Who is @YoungInvent? Flourishing indie artist on tour.. He just came back from Miami, and NY, and went to Hawaii and Puerto Rico in the summer, schedule for Las Vegas in NYE


















Most think getting a record deal and being an artist is easy, the artist known as Young Invent knows differently. His life has not been easy and filled with hardships. Born as Jeffrey Murphy to his mother Cassandra, his life has been tough. When he was 12, Jeffrey was hit by a speeding car and at 20, he survived after having 5 gun shot wounds. A year later, he would be shot three times close range. The hospital was not too optimistic about Young Invent surviving as the doctors pronounced him dead but God thought otherwise and he lived to keep pursuing his career in rap.

The reason Young Invent earned his name was through his fans who took notice of his creative quickness, his unique invention of ideas and the way he paints stories to beats at the drop of a hat. He can hold his own in an MC battle with witty freestyles as well as construct catchy hooks that go with thought provoking rhymes. His style is not limited to street thug, or club, but is very versatile and will stimulate the most intellectual of hip-hop fans. This attribute will give him a long lasting career amongst the one dimensional MCs and one hit wonders present in today’s Hip-Hop society.

His style reminds me a little bit of Biggie, Rick Ross, Skillz and then also Young Invent is also an artist entirely of himself.


Young Invent shows what to except from The Gentleman Only Tour. Starring Yvette Todea, Young Invent & Madd Wrez. Stay Tuned for every show blog. #IR #HOL #BBM #Phastlife #TwoSideMagazine #YoungInvent

X-Men Face Off Against Apocalyspe for @20thcentury X-Men: Apocalyspe (@xapocalypse2016)!





Marvel & 20th Century Fox band of mutants known as the X-Men are back after the smash movie X-Men: Days of Future Past where we say not just the cast of James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Nick Hoult, & Michael Fassbender paired with the older X-Men movie cast with Hugh Jackman, Sir Patrick Steward, Sir Ian McKellan, Halle Berry, Famke Jensen, & the original X-Men team cast all together in one movie to combat the threat of Bolivar Trask and Sentinels are back this time in the 80's to fight the first mutant Apocalypse whose motto is survival of the fittest alongside his Four Horseman as they attempt to destroy humanity and declare world domination.

This movie will be more about X-Men without Wolverine as Hugh Jackman prepares to do a third movie for the Wolverine and will be his last outing playing the clawed mutant. And Fox promises more from the mutants as not just this X-Men movie will be a stellar entry for the franchise but also before that Ryan Renold's Deadpool movie which will be more of the original take on the character versus what we seen in X-Men Origins: Wolverine and then later this year Channing Tatum's Gambit movie. CHECK OUT THE TRAILER HERE!

Cast: James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Oscar Isaac, Nicholas Hoult, Rose Byrne, Tye Sheridan, Sophie Turner, Olivia Munn, Lucas Till, Evan Peters, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Alexandra Shipp, Josh Helman, Lana Condor, Ben Hardy

It's no surprise that Marvel Studios is on a roll after releasing the sequel to their Avengers franchise, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Ant-Man, a third season of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D & Jessica Jones. Shortly after Marvel releasing Jessica Jones on Netflix this November they chose Late Night with Jimmy Fallon to debut their new trailer to the third Captain America movie loosely based off their hit comic book crossover Civil War.

Remember when YouTube used to play in the background of your smartphone? Well, it's back...KINDA SORT OF...@YouTube released YOUTUBE MUSIC APP!





Remember when you could open up a song or video on your smartphone within YouTube's native app, well Google finally decided to bring that feature back sort of...YouTube is still a standalone app but also there is a service you can pay a $13.99 per month which is YouTube Red which allows you to play your favorite songs in the background and cache YouTube songs to create an offline mixtape. To also compliment their YouTube Red subscription Google has released a separate app YouTube Music where you can watch videos or if you prefer to just listen to music switch it an music mode which you won't see video and can choose from different YouTube Music radio stations which YouTube compiles from based off your video and song watching habits.

Upon first downloading the YouTube Music app, you get a two week trial of YouTube Red which will also extend if you are using the traditional YouTube app, YouTube on your computer and YouTube Music. I'm not sure why YouTube would choose their subscription fee 0f $13.99 (Tidal had to learn being steep on prices was not the best plan of sell the hard way) especially when you can pay cheaper per month to stream music a la Apple Music, Spotify and Pandora. After you run out the two week trial, there seems very little incentive for anyone to continue to have YouTube Music app. Freemium features seems nonexistent. Once you are using YouTube music app free you won't be able to play music in the background without the app currently up on your smartphone or tablet.

YouTube Music is a cool app and a game changer but sadly I feel like their subscription fee they want you to pay is too much to stream music. I'll use it every now and then but feel like deferring to Apple Music, Soundcloud, Spotify, and Pandora as the way to go to stream music. My advice to YouTube is give the users who would like to use YouTube Music on a freemium basis something to incentives to keep the app on their devices.

Catch @UltraNateMusic & @LisaMoody this Thanksgiving weekend bring that @DEEPSUGAR in D.C.!





Just two weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending my first House party with my brov Cool V (follow him on Instagram @mrofficialwhistle) in Baltimore at an historical last night at Paradox Entertainment's & Ultra Nates' Deep Sugar event. The vibe of going to an House club is much different than that of a Hip-Hop, Rap, or a reggae club. You should definitely be prepared to dance and sweat your ass off. You don't want to be suited and booted for this party. This is more of an t-shirt and jeans thing. Everyone who attends an House party is there for two things: THE MUSIC AND TO DANCE! It's about having fun. Sure there is a bar and you can have drinks but the music keeps you going and if anything you need water and a sweat towel because you are going to go in. There you can party from 11pm all the way to 7 am. I did not sleep much and definitely did spend some money but IT WAS TOTALLY WORTH IT!

The club is set up in an old warehouse. There were four different rooms with different DJ's rotating out through out the night and then in the main room was Ultra Nate' spinning. People eventually poured in as soon as the doors opened. It was very cold that weekend but with dancing so much and people packing the warehouse club to capacity you wouldn't think about the cold from the outside.



For more about who Ultra Nate' is just in case you are not familiar with classic Deep House and pop music, Ultra Naté (born March 20, 1968, Havre de Grace, Maryland) is an American House and Dance-Pop musician who has achieved success on the Pop charts with songs such as "Free" and "If You Could Read My Mind", as part of Stars on 54 and Automatic.

Virtually all of her singles have reached the Top 10 of the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart. Such singles include "Show Me", "Free", "Desire", "Get it Up (the Feeling)", "Love's the Only Drug", and her number-one hits "Automatic", "Give it All You Got" featuring Chris Willis, "Waiting On You" and "Everybody Loves the Night".



Ultra Nate' at the DJ booth on the turntables, another DJ (there were five DJ's in different rooms)



Shouts to Shades of Dance13 for the video. SUBSCRIBE HERE to his YouTube.

As you can see at Paradox, it was packed and people were dancing all the way into 7 in the morning! If you are in the DMV area this Thanksgiving weekend I implore you to go check out Ultra Nate' and Lisa Moody's Deep Sugar event this Saturday at the U Street Music Hall.

The Untold Story Of @LeahHaxhi





HAVE YOU HEARD OF LEAH HAXHI? I BET YOU HAVE...NOT

Leah Haxhi is an NYC singer/songwriter who blends powerful blues-like vocals and ad-libs over pop, hip hop and electronic- infused beats. Leah has had success with a variety of remixes and covers on Soundcloud and YouTube in the past, and is recently released her first original single Fade.

A music major with a degree from Trinity College, Leah is trained in violin and writes songs on guitar, piano and ukulele. Her style is a blend of pop, hip-hop, and R&B with rock and folk influences sprinkled in as well. She writes most of her songs organically, free-styling melodies and lyrics while playing the guitar or keys. Over the past 2 years she has lived in New York, she has been developing her style and bringing her songs in for original production at Shifted Recording Studios in Williamsburg by producer Mike Irish.

Leah’s rendition of John Legend’s “All of Me”, was featured on RyanSeacrest.com’s 25 best covers. In addition, she has performed at venues in New York such as Webster Hall (opening for Three 6 Mafia), The Bitter End, DL Night Club, and popular dive bars like LES’s The Delancey and Trash Bar in Brooklyn with a variety of sets including both DJ, live band and acoustic music.”




Leah Haxhi drops her first single “Fade,” with music produced in Brooklyn by Mike Irish. The track mixes minimalistic piano with jam-sesh vibes to create a natural, catchy feel that blends pop, R&B, hip-hop, and even subtle jazz elements into a chilled groove, ready for the hot city summer. With a June 21st release date, “Fade" is the perfect summer anthem, setting the tone for “driving down the highway” and blasting music while “everybody sings along.” The single is paired with high quality visuals from the hands of Matt Phipps, filmmaker and creator of SkatersAtlas.com. Leah says “I wrote this song last year on my birthday. I was in the studio free-styling and picturing myself flying down the highway with my boyfriend at the time just listening to music on the way to the beach, fading away into that moment of complete contentment and happiness. This song is an expression of that feeling, no matter what you're doing in life." Be on the lookout for more tunes from Leah Haxhi, as she continues the countdown to her debut album release later this year.

Find out who's Jammin? It's the lady @elle_royal & find out some more about her music!





Elle Royal, formerly known as Patwa, was born in the Bronx, New York to parents of Caribbean descent. At age four, her parents divorced, leaving her to be raised by her mother in the Wakefield area of the Bronx. In search of a better place to raise her children, Elle’s mother re-located Elle to Lawrenceville, Georgia where Elle completed high school and later college at Georgia State University.

Elle always had a love for music and a love for writing. As a young girl, she recorded herself over tape decks and mimicked the rhymes of rappers Mase, Biggie, and Foxy Brown. As she grew older, she studied the rhymes of Jay-Z, Mobb Deep, MC Lyte, Queen Latifah and AZ. While in high school, Elle spent many nights engaged in the process of making music at a cousin’s studio nearby. While watching her cousin and his friends record, Elle fell in love with the idea of expressing herself using wordplay and finesse. Elle slowly began to conceptualize herself as more than just a lover of music.

Elle brought music equipment on a credit card and built a studio setup in her room where she recorded songs simultaneously posting them on MySpace. It was on MySpace that her current manager discovered Elle, and began working with her on her first mixtape.

While working on her debut mixtape, Elle felt fortunate to be recognized by Hip Hop legends such as Erick Sermon. Erick was featured on her debut mixtape while Elle received production from the legendary, Mad Lion.



Although Elle’s popularity began to soar exponentially, Elle displayed unhappiness in an industry that she felt was boxing her into a niche. Feeling hindered, Elle took an absence from music in an effort to revamp her music by re-imagining her sound and name in a way that she felt would be more reflective of her versatility and talents.

After mastering her sound, Elle returned to the hip-hop scene, but only under her terms. Elle changed her emcee name to Elle Royal (meaning “She's Royal” in French) to reflect her first name, Danielle, and her eagerness to bring respect back to the female. As Elle explains, “We as women are Royal, and I needed a name to reflect that”. Elle then aimed to create a sophisticated sound and image that she believed would challenge her listeners. “I just want people to want the better things out of life and to not think that the only options you have as a woman is to use your sexuality in a demeaning way to get ahead”. “I want women to aspire to obtain things on their own, and value their independence rather than depend on anyone to do things for them.”

Above the Paak: An introduction to Anderson Paak (@breezylovehat)





His real name is Brandon Anderson Paak. Born into a Black/Korean family in Oxnard, California in 1986. Anderson Paak is a singer, rapper & producer who recently this year performed six songs on Dr. Dre's Compton album and two songs on the Game's Documentary 2 album. He started in his teeens producing music from his bedroom. His first solo album was released in 2010 called Violets Are Blue. In 2011, prior to being a successful working musician, Paak was working at a marijuana growing farm in Santa Barbara. He was let go without warning, becoming homeless together with his wife and infant son. In that same year, Paak had started earning acceptance in the Los Angeles music world, and had begun working on his debut album. Shafiq Husayn of Sa-Ra helped Paak recover financially from losing his job in Santa Barbara by employing him as an assistant, videographer, editor, writer, and producer.

In 2012, Paak put out his second album Lovejoy and later that year he completed O.B.E. Vol.1 (his third album) in this time period, and released the album in mid-2012. At this time, he became the drummer for American Idol contestant Haley Reinhart, and was able to further grow as a musician and performer.





In November 27, 2013, Paak produced and recorded Cover Art, an all-covers EP. Paak was inspired by the white artists of the 1950s who achieved commercial success by remaking songs written by black Blues and R&B singers while hardly ever compensating the original artists. Cover Art reversed the process and transformed folk and rock classics from white musicians into a mold of Soul, Jazz, Hip Hop, and R&B. The album was released by the independent Hellfyre Club, and OBE labels.

Paak produced 14 of the 16 Tracks from George Watsky's album All You Can Do which released in August 2014.





On October 28, 2014, Paak released Venice, his debut album as Anderson Paak, on OBE and Steel Wool. In October 2015, he announced that he has recorded material with TED rapper ScHoolboy Q and legendary producer 9th Wonder. Paak plans to release his next album, Malibu before the end of this year
