Day One: December 1st!

So I'm going to be starting this new job at a Green Non-Profit. We're doing A LOT of stuff with every (I think) federal agency to cut down on their impact. Super excited. It's all pretty basic right now with information on 'energy vampires' and their impact on our energy use and costs incurred. I'm being brought on to help expand, both the website and the ideas behind how we can help the government lessen their environmental impact on our Earth.

While I've got lots of ideas, I wanna know from all of you what simple things you think would be beneficial to our governments efficiency (and I mean energy efficiency here folks!) or what you would like to know to cut down your OWN personal impact!

...Every little bit counts! What may seem tiny and insignificant to you will add up exponentially if we are all aware!...

She So Street

The new Single is out!

"She so Street" feat. Rane (WPGC) from Konshens' upcoming (sophomore project titled " Konshens and his State of Mind: The Evolution") album. The release date is slated for December 20. This project is very unique with regards to the genre of music that Konshens does…HIP HOP! Konshens has constructed his very own 7-piece band that he performs with live playing the music; this project has been recorded with his band. SO for those that appreciate live instrumentation, good meaningful lyrics then this one is for you!

We are having a release party on December 6 in which I will keep all of you informed in the event that anyone wants to attend.

The single "She so Street" is a story about a young man who gives all he has for this female even to the most extreme limits. Only to find out that the female he loves is actually the streets. And no matter how faithful one may be to the streets the streets never reciprocate that faithfulness and love. We hope this song sparks a thought of change in those young men hugging the block believing that's all they have. Not realizing that when they are locked up and/or killed as a result the cycle continues. Listen to the lyrics!

Thank you for your time…. And if you're feeling the song, by all means REQUEST IT REQUEST IT REQUEST IT to you local radio stations!!!!! Please pass the word!!!

Thanking all of you in advance!!!
