Last night I dreamed,we shared a view.Lavender scene,with light pink hues. The sky was bright,flowers danced free,garden of light,colorful glee. Visions I had,felt strong and true.My heart felt glad,to be with you. Dream of us both,views feel supreme.Scenes of great hope,hues blush then gleam. Bright purple paint,free up above.Light gumdrop stains,glee filled with love. Had […]
Biggie and Tupac weren’t formative artists for will.i.am.
Appearing on the “Hip-Hop Confessions” podcast, the Black Eyed Peas artist confessed that he actually isn’t that into the iconic and widely acclaimed ’90s rappers.

“I’m gonna say something… I don’t want to say it in a disrespectful way,” he told host Skillz. “When people say Tupac and Biggie, I’m such [an] A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul head that I don’t like Tupac and Biggie.”
He added, “That kind of music doesn’t speak to my spirit. I like Boogie Down Productions, KRS-One; if it’s like, ‘Tupac or Biggie?,’ I’m like, ‘KRS-One.’ Why those two?”
will.i.am also shared some other artists he looks up to in the world of hip-hop.
“If it’s Tupac and Biggie, I don’t hold them up like that,” he said. “I hold Eric B. [and] Rakim up like that.”

Despite not being a huge fan of the artists, he did admit to admiring Tupac.
“Tupac’s dope. Don’t get me wrong. It’s not like I don’t think he’s dope,” will.i.am said.
Talking about his love for groups like De La Soul and A Tribe Called Quest, the musician explained, “It kept me safe while I was in the projects. Had I loved Tupac and Biggie while I was in the projects, I probably would’ve been stuck in the projects still.”
Biggie, who also went by the name Notorious B.I.G., was killed in a shooting on March 9, 1997, just months after Tupac’s killing on September 13, 1996.

What a morning it’s been. I misjudged how long my sourdough needed to rise, so I was in the kitchen at 5 am today to make sourdough cinnamon rolls. I had been tossing and turning all night, and I figured I might as well get up. At least then I was doing something useful with […]

1815/7th May 2022 There I was, washing dishes and gazing out the kitchen window. It tends to happen at much the same time every evening. Guess who has figured out how to extort one more carrot. “Grass.” she said, mournfully. “It’s all there is!” Well, what is one to do? As is plain to see, […]
