"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

There's a lot of rap out there that talk about the hood either just ranting how much they hate their lives or how hard it made them. Though I've never heard of a rap that described thug life like this, it really brings a new perspective to the whole idea of being a gangster. It talks about a guy who slowly works his way to becoming a gangster, and his final test was to rape a random woman they captured who ended up being his own mother. Though these words really made me think last night:

"So when the devil wants to dance with you, you better say never because a dance with the devil might last you forever."

Not sure if the story is true or not, seems a little too convenient of a situation but I do know gangsters are that crazy. I know a couple of bloods, they do some crazy and stupid stuff for fun, like the other day one of them was telling me they went to a party, saw only ONE person they didn't like, grabbed their shotguns in their car and scared everyone out of the party. They didn't shoot but they just wanted to scare everyone.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I love that story telling rap.
But it's a fvcked up and very sad story.

What is some other good storytelling rappers?

I love that song. Its so gritty and the story it tells is so dark. I think it could easily be turned into a movie, something along the lines of Belly with Nas & DMX.

To wolf-check out Jedi Mind Tricks. They tell some pretty good stories in their songs.
The song Misunderstood by Common is a pretty good story. If you haven't heard it, you should check it out.

Wow, I haven't heard that song in like 5 years and its still powerful.

I don't think the story is true as in it is an experience Immortal Technique went through, but true in the sense as things like that happen out on the streets.

I've always heard about guys like Immortal Technique and Jedi Mind Tricks but I brushed them off assuming they were like 50 cent, Ja Rule, etc. But they were more like the Eminem, Tupac mold. I'm going to start listening to them more often.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

I love this song. Beautiful and sad.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Just listened to it right now, it literally had me mesmerized. Not in the Hollywood or Disneyland type of fanatical way, but the type where you're so absorbed in something anything else doesn't matter.

That song by Immortal Technique doesn't even sound realistic but don't get me wrong it's pretty good. However, I think 3 sides to a story by Joe Buddens is very much on point and it gives you many different perspectives on just 1 situation but you have to listen to it very carefully. ;)

The song by Jedi Mind Tricks is very true because I actually talked to a Vietnam war vet (he doesn't even look his age) and the stuff he was telling me was crazy. He even told me that his mind is completely fuked up because he sometimes wakes up at night due to images he sees because of the kids and women he had to kill. The messed up thing is that due to the fact he had to kill so much, when he was coming back to the U.S, they would send the soldiers to Germany to "de-brief" them. I asked him what is "de-briefing" and he said...

"...well they take you in a room and they tell how that since you are going back home that you CAN'T kill people anymore...".

Could you imagine how messed up they must have been for you to TELL you that you can't kill people anymore. For us it's something we don't think about but to tell someone that is just scary.

I'm a very un-emotional person, but that song gave me a tear in my eye.

So there were "a couple of them" and "ONE person they didn't like" and they grabbed shotguns?

You would think that them outnumbering them 2-1 they wouldn't need shotguns, but since they're "gangsta's" they're not as tough as they think.

Couple of punks. It would have been funny is someone saw them coming in with shotguns and capped their dumb asses.

No worries, these guys won't be around much longer.

Dead or in jail is where they will soon end up.
