CONSEQUENCE – WHATEVER U WANT (G.O.O.D. MUSIC REMIX)

The G.O.O.D. music fam drops a remix to Consequence’s ‘Whatever U Want” single, featuring Kanye West, Common, Kid Cudi, Big Sean, and John Legend. Damn G what about GLC and Really Doe? Salty. Either way, it’s a nice simple little remix…nothing to it really, although the collaboration alone is really the promo vehicle for this joint. Guess when you get to a certain level in music you can drop whatever you want (no pun intended). Indulge!

RECAP: G.O.O.D. MUSIC X RSVP GALLERY X SPRITE GREEN 9/18

Last night Chicago was shut down by a classic event put together by my homies Marc Moran, Virgil Abloh, and Don C of the newly-opened RSVP Gallery & Sprite Green here in Chicago. They, in connection with and G.O.O.D. Music, created a pop-up installation in Millennium Park that was free to the public, free liq, and performances from J. Ivy, Really Doe, Big Sean, GLC, Consequence, Mr.Hudson, Kid Cudi, and Common! Even new G.O.O.D. Beats addition Don Cannon came through to bless the stage. It was a dope event and definitely one of the top ones I’ve been to in Chicago (funny how my top 2 both involved Common, he’s in my Top 3 MCs ever of all time!). The homie Andrew from FSD got some dope footage right in front of the stage of Cudi’s set and Common’s set, so check that out, and check out the pics of RSVP Gallery. GO!

The RSVP decor is taken from The RSVP Private Collection of works from artists including Mark Newson, Stephen Sprouse, Jeff Koons, Takashi Murakami, Kaws and NoPattern. RSVP offers pieces from premium brands including Kaikai Kiki, Ambush, Dee & Ricky, Super, PLAY Comme des Garcons, Rizzoli, Original Fake, G-Shock, Incase and Boxed Water.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA’S INAUGURATION SPEECH [IN TEXT]

My fellow citizens:

I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.

Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because we the people have remained faithful to the ideals of our forebears, and true to our founding documents.

So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.

That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.

These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land — a nagging fear that America’s decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights.
