Kid Cudi - Dennis, Hook Me Up With Some More Of That Whiskey!
“This morning I got a call, nearly split my wig
This social network said “Nas go and get ya kid”
She’s on Twitter, I know she ain’t gon post no pic
Of herself underdressed, no inappropriate shit, right
Her mother cried when she answered
Said she don’t know what got inside this child’s mind, she planted
A box of condoms on her dresser then she Instagrammed it”
‘sigh’
Sentiments of a Hump Day
Damn, not Dick!
Why does it seem
that the more I grow older,
the more people whom I grew to
admire
seem to pass away?
I know that life is about
change,
but how come that change
so often takes the form of
loss?

Modern urban space is often monopolised by commercial advertising and blank walls.
It’s no wonder people crave colour and public expression. Street Art has existed for centuries to reclaim empty space and build city character. Used effectively it can also fuel motivational thought and behaviour by promoting positive messages about peace, beauty and society.
But defacing architecture with your personal taste in art is not something I’m going to promote here. Instead check out this responsible street art phenomenons:
Artist Slinkachu uses city rubbish to build miniature scenes with humour -they may be small but they add detail to life. They bring new meaning to each cigarette carelessly thrown away, each orange peel that cannot decompose into soil.
The streets are big. This idea reflects a grey truth about urban communities and their environment. I love them.

Somali Refugees in Dadaab Struggle On
Though the international spotlight has moved on, hundreds of thousands of Somali refugees in the Dadaab camps in northwestern Kenya, the largest refugee camps in the world, continue to struggle amid harsh conditions and pervasive malnutrition, particularly among children. Aid has been too slow in coming, however, and longer-term solutions are nowhere to be found.
