Greeting Earthlings, it's the kryptonian here. How was everyone's year? Good I hope and if not then I'm hoping 2010 is a brighter tomorrow for you. My year was pretty shaky. Not nearly as bad as 2008 (worst year of my life) but it wasn't too great either. Started off pretty brightly and I was really optimistic about the year. I thought that I was finally ready to take charge of my life and but this year showed me that I still have much growing to do. This year I realized both my maturity and immaturity. This year was very physically, mentally and at times emotionally draining as I got my first glimpse at independance by having my first full time job and still going to school. You never quite realize how little money you have until you get it. This semester of school was probably my most enlightening but at the same time my most stressful mainly because of my photography class. I realized that though I love photography, I could never do it professionally. It was this year that I truly fell in love with acting though. My acting class was the best class that I've ever had in my college tenure and I only hope that I continue to grow and shape my craft. It was also this year that showed me that I should value my life more because tomorrow isn't promised for anyone. With multiple celebrities dying suddenly this year and countless others elsewhere it was almost as if a dark cloud was spread over the latter part of 2009. Though that dark cloud I was able to get closer to my friends and family. My love life was nonexistent this year much to my disdain. A few oppuritunites came my way but none of them developed into anything and all the while I still battle with my feelings for my ex. I'd love for her to be back with me but I never expect for it to happen. We will always share this strong but somewhat twisted bond that will never let us be too apart from each other but also never quite in each others arms. It's a fucked up reality. After all of the death, epiphanies and growth that came with 2009 I can only hope that 2010 allows sunshine to break through that dark cloud that shrouded 09. I believe that a lot of deaths happened in 09 (figuratively and literally) to transition us all into a new wave of things to come in 2010 and onward. I have a lot to look forward to in 2010 and as I continue on my road to maturity I hope that 2010 is a little easier on all of our psyches lol. Catch you on the other side ;). Rock on from Krypton

Paper Chaser
Lemme take this time out to say that I'm really happy that this song was mad into a video. Ima big fan of Big Sean (been rockin w/ him since his first Finally Famous Mixtape) and this is one of my overall famous songs of his. It's a great song for motivation and the beat on it is sick. For those that don't know this is off of his most recent mixtape UKNOWBIGSEAN which u should definitely check it out. Can't wait for his album to drop hopefully in mid 2010. Rock on from Krypton

I Wanna Rock
I know this video's been out for a minute now but since i don't watch music videos on television anymore this is my first time seeing it. UGH! THIS VIDEO IS DOPE!! This is one of Snoop's best recent songs to me and the best out of the Malice in Wonderland videos. Everytime i hear the beat to this song I just have to start dancing. Speaking of dancing i love the cypher feel of the whole video. Quest Crew KILLED it and for once I even respect Jerkers. Only thing I'm curious about is what in the hell is that on Snoop's hand lol. Is he trying to be Iron Man? Well anyways check out the video if you haven't already. Merry Christmas from Krypton!

Repo Men!
Just saw this trailer on Blazing Swarm (big ups to them on the dope site) and I gotta say that this looks dope as hell. Big fan or both Forest Whitaker and Jude Law so i will be seeing this. Now alot of people are upset with the movie because it draws a heavy resemblane to Repo! The Genetic Opera. Now I saw the preview for that movie as well and while I can see the resemblence I look at it as not a rip off but more of the same movie in a different vein. Repo! is more of like Edward Scissorhands meets Dark City meets Rocky Horror Show, where as Repo Men! looks like a straight up action movie. Repo! looks mad interesting though so Ima check both movies out. I'll leave the other trailer down below for you all to draw your own conclusions. Rock on from Krypton

More Than Love
Ah Amerie, loved this girl since Why Don't We Fall In Love and been pullin for her. She's a talented and beautiful girl but for some reason can't seem to get mass success. I think it may be because she doesn't have a distinct style or sound that seperates her from everyone else like Beyonce or Rihanna. Nonetheless I really like this video for her song "More Than Love" w/ Fabolous. The beat is dope and a lot of people seem to be using that sample recently (First Dr. Dre and then Wale). Even though the concept in the video has been used before many times, Fabolous and Amerie have a really good on screen chemistry so you were really engaged in their story. I knew from the beginning the Fab wasn't creepin *shakes head* you ladies need to stop jumpin to conclusions i swear!! lol. Well anyways, peep the video when ya have the time. Rock on from Krypton.

P.S. I just had to comment on this bullshit. All the Kanye West "selling his soul to the devil" rumors based off of a line he used in a recent verse are stupid. He was clearly using it as a figure of speech for how he lost himself to his own fame and nothing more. I swear, people always need some kind of ammo to shot down someone talented.

Bursts of Random Thought
Greetings Earthlings. Hope you slept well and to those of you who are still sleeping, hope your sleeping well. Been a while since i've been blogging on a consistent basis and because of that I've seen a good amount of my followers have jumped ship (which I can't really blame em for) but ima keep it movin. Business as usual. A lot's been on my mind lately so here's another burst of randomness from your's truly.
-I'm thinking that once I have kids ima name em Aiden and Isabella. I always thought Aiden was a cool ass name and Isabella i like. plus i can nickname her Izzy =). Who know's what can change between then and now though.
-Lil Wayne + Ludacris + Trina + Boobs = Nicki Minaj
-Though I still definitely wanna direct in the future, my main focus for a while now will be acting. I fell in love with acting this semester at school and so I think I'm gonna stick with it and see where it takes me.
-I'm considering taking up rapping. As silly as that sounds I just wanna try my hand at it. As much hip-hop that I listen to I constantly find myself having random punchlines and song ideas pop into my head so I wanna see if i'd be any good at it.
-I'm still not over my ex, probably never will be, but I am strong enough now where I can stand on my own two feet and keep it moving. I'm always gonna love that girl though, sadly she probably doesn't get that.
-For all you fellow wrestling fans, I think wrestling has been pretty dope lately. They've really been uping the ante with all this fresh new talent such as Sheamus and Drew Mcyintre, plus they've been pushing the younger talent like Kofi Kingston, John Morrison, Dolph Ziggler and others to new heights. 2010 should be an interesting year for WWE.
-Shock Value II is one fun album to listen to, I like it more than the first one.
-Miley Cyrus gave me a new reason to hate her guts by dissing Jay-Z in an interview recently and claiming that she's "never heard a Jay-Z song before in her life". Even the interviewer was taken back. This bitch needs to get off her high horse and learn some respect asap.
-Heard and loved both Rihanna and Chris Brown's newest albums. Rated R is kinda like Rihanna's Dangerous where Graffiti is Chris' Invincible. Rated R shows off a new, darker side of Rihanna that I honestly feel suits her. Never really liked any of her albums until this one. Graffiti on the other hand is much more high energy but at the same time shows a more mature and at times remorseful side of Chris. A lot of people at praising Rihanna's album and bashing Chris' album which of course is less about the music and more about the domestic violence incident which to me is ridiculous but hey that's society for you. Both delivered their best albums yet to me and I wish them both nothing but the best in the future.
-I'm real blown that Lupe cancelled his christmas mixtape but I can understand why he did. One thing that has always pissed me off about him though is the grand promises that he makes but sometimes doesn't follow through on (a remixed version of The Cool by Justice, The Cool Graphic Novel, Lasers being due out in 2009 and now this). Even though I love the guy I think he should really think alittle more before he makes these plans so that he can actually see if he can pull things things off and not get his fans hopes up. I'm hoping 2010 is a great year for him though because Enemy of the State definitely put him on people's radar.
-I'm really proud of and happy for Drake. He's definitely done a great job at taking advantage of his buzz and it shows. He dropped one of the most complete mixtapes to drop in a while and he could've very well just sat back and rode on that wagon till 2010 but instead he's capitalized on that hype and rode a huge tsunami sized wave all over 2009. Being featured on everyone from close friend Trey Songz to R&B Legend Mary J Blige's album and even holding his own against the likes of Eminem and Kanye West on Forever, this kid has defintely impressed me. The dude's also got a real genuine air about him which makes u feel like he is truly greatful to be in this position and doesn't take it for granted. I'm definitely looking forward to his debut album Thank Me Later. I know it'll be a sick album.
-Anyone heard about this gay Asher Roth rumors? smh, the media is running out of things to make up seriously.
-Follow me on twitter, i actually use it now lol. www.twitter.com/KidProdigy07
-Something about Charles Hamilton really irks me. I always knew the guy seemed a little off but I kinda overlooked it because he was droppin some dope stuff but now that he's coming back he's just a little TOO cocky. He's still a rookie in the game with no real kind of guidance so to me Charles Hamiton is the equivalent to a little kid you left at home with a box of crayons and a big white wall. He's a talented dude but he's just immature and speaks out of his ass alot. He needs to calm that down or else he's gonna end up fuckin his chances at superstardom up.
-I miss Kanye West -_-. Hope the time off is workin out for him so he can come back and channel all that confusion, pain and controversy into a sick ass comeback album.
-One thing I hate about winter time (besides it completely sucking ass) is that there's almost nothing on television. When winter comes around most good TV shows take a break and go into production for more episodes so all we're left with are reality TV shows and re-runs, bleh. I miss White Collar, Smallville, Heroes, Vampire Diaries (yea i said it) and Supernatural. Thank god from Scrubs, Community and Better off Ted.
-2010 is gonna be a DOPE year for movies, I have so much that I want to see and I can't wait >.<.
-In retrospect, 2009 felt kind of like freshman year of high school for me. Started off hopeful and bright, then things start to get kind of rough and you realize that you're not as mature as you thought you were. Find out some new things about yourself and then by the end of the year you go into the next year not exactly knowing what to expect, but have a newfound understanding of things. To put it shortly, 2009 was a transitional year.
-With all the deaths of big celebrities this year (R.I.P. to all of them) do you think this is also a part of that transition in a new decade? A part of me feels like its almost making way for new faces and talent to rise up into the spotlight and shine as 2010 starts off a new era. I could be wrong though but I just get that feeling.
-I love my PS3, I named her Sweetest Taboo XD. if you got one and wanna add me, my PSN name is Kid Prodigy.
-I have my eyes on girls but I'm not looking for them anymore. Every attempt that I've made recently has been turned away so now ima just do my thing until someone comes to me....unless I wait 10 years and nothing happens then i'm taking drastic measures! lol.
-Because of my work schedule I'm gonna miss going down to SC with the fam for Christmas so I pretty much have the house to myself for the week...Any ladies wanna come keep me company? lol.
Ok i need to stop bullshittin and get back to work before my dumbass gets in trouble lol. Hope everyone out there has a great day, Happy Birthday to any birthdays out there and if I'm not back on Christmas, Happy Holidays to you and yours. Rock on from Krypton

Forever Young
This is one of my top 5 favorite Jay-Z videos of all time and one of my fave videos of the year. I'm glad Jay went the route of simplicity for the video because it's really effective. The clips of youth around the country just enjoying life just helps enhance the message in this song so well. I won't lie I almost teared up a little bit. I almost feel like Jay is in his prime right now because he's so on top of things that everything just seems effortless for him. Big ups to Mr Hudson on the chorus too. If you haven't heard his album Straight No Chaser yet you need to check it out asap. It's a good listen. I hope yall enjoy the video and until next time I say, Rock on from Krypton.
Dueces Up!
