admin — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 05:13:48 +0000

Selma Cali Emcee, ICEMAN handles his business properly, and is a prime example of an awesome client that i always enjoy working with. He submits his information for a requested flier well in advance of the actual event date, knows exactly what he wants, and even includes the necessary image files in his initial e-mail. In return, he gets a faster turnaround time, and a better price for making my task less stressful. Thanks ICEMAN!

Very few people know anything about what really goes on behind the scene when it come to U.S. foreign policy and the corporate interests that drive it all. Our government is controlled by powerful corporate interests that have literally hijacked the powers of government and our military to advance their own selfish agendas. This interview should totally blow your mind. John Perkins was one of the men working behind the scenes to expand a global empire primarily through economic blackmail where they seduced third world leaders into taking out enormous loans that were impossible to repay so we could then U.S. corporations could swoop in and acquire control of their natural resources. If you’d like to end the reign of corporate colonialism and rid our government of their influence, please join the revolution at The Kick Them All Out Project http://www.KickThemAllOut.com

Another mixtape from Bobby Campbell! Dayum, this guy stays grinding! When he hit me up for another album cover, I knew it wouldn’t be a problem. Bobby is one of those guys that has a clear picture in his head of how he wants his album cover to look, even supplying the high-resolution imagery needed to complete his vision. When clients make my job easier like this, i save time, they save money, and both of use are happier for it.

Don’t sleep on this dude, he’s got some passionate raps for anyone who takes the time to listen.

UPDATE: this album is no longer available.. You should peep his other album though… Lefthand English.

10 Lessons for Designers – John C. Jay

admin — Sat, 26 Feb 2011 01:29:47 +0000

1: Be authentic. The most powerful asset you have is your individuality, what makes you unique. It’s time to stop listening to others on what you should do. (Isn’t it ironic.. don’t you think?)

2: Work harder than anyone else and you will always benefit from the effort.

3: Get off the computer and connect with real people and culture. Life is visceral.

4: Constantly improve your craft. Make things with your hands. Innovation in thinking is not enough.

5: Travel as much as you can. It is a humbling and inspiring experience to learn just how much you don’t know.

6: Being original is still king, especially in this tech-driven, group-grope world.

7: Try not to work for stupid people or you’ll soon become one of them.

8: Instinct and intuition are all-powerful. Learn to trust them.

9: The Golden Rule actually works. Do good.

10: If all else fails, No. 2 is the greatest competitive advantage of any career.
