Right off the heels of the movie "N.W.A Straight Outta Compton" I have a motivational message to share.
Saturday night, I went to see this movie, hyped up because I love Eazy-E and I love what N.W.A had to say and what they signified at a time where their message was unheard of. I won't go into a super long movie review because I definitely feel like this movie is a must see. Plus, you can find tons of them all over the net.
So, yes I did walk away with my own interpretation of what I felt from watching the movie. I left with some inspiration. Now really as far as music because the state of hip hop today just saddens me. But N.W.A and what they did for themselves. Literally, they were a group of talented, under privileged kids from a rough neighborhood and humble beginnings.
They had a dream, talent and prayers. Regardless of what you feel about their music or them as individuals, they turned their circumstance into finance. Not that the monetary value supercedes the moral and cultural life lessons they learned but it helped, alot.
As a kid who grew up in a similar way because hardships don't ever grow old or out of style, I can identify with the passion of wanting better. Wanting to see and be better. Regardless of how hard or trying it was, they did it.
And with saying that, I'm saying stay persistent in whatever you feel your good at. Don't be afraid to grow. Don't be afraid to change, dream and believe. You have to work for any and everything that's worth having, tears and long nights included. Sometimes it's super easy to lose sight of your goals by being influenced by negativity and your surroundings. Im going full force now, i've watched my dreams pass me by for far too long. Live life, be inspired! Love what you do and never give up.
Xoxo
