Kanye West’s New Album Comes Out On 11/22

According to Rap-Up, Kanye’s dropping his (still-untitled) fifth studio album on November 22nd, which is the Monday before Black Friday. But what does this say about him and Jay’s Watch The Throne album, that was rumored to be dropping on 11/23? Other albums dropping that week: Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday and Lloyd Banks’ HFM2.

Kanye album will have double in sales the total of Nicki Minaj's Pink Friday and Lloyd Banks' HFM2 IMO...

Talent X Education

“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts"

Are Your UGGs Fake? A 'Made in Australia' Tag Means YES

Even if you consider yourself a savvy shopper capable of spotting a fake a mile away you might want to double-check your favorite UGG's, some of the counterfeits up for sale lately are more than a little convincing. The tricky part is that the latest UGG knock-offs aren't made of chintzy materials or with poor technique -- they actually have some quality behind them. Both boots pictured here are made of quality sheepskin with reinforced seams. They're both heavy, comfortable, and substantial boots. The only obvious difference is in the logo -- the overly large one on right marks the black boot as the imposter.

It's Gonna Be O.K.

“You have to be okay with the fact that you’re healing. And you have to be okay with the fact that there’s gonna be a huge scar somewhere. But eventually you’ll wake up one day and tell yourself to try. You try one thing at a time like climbing stairs. You can take however long you want at each step as long as you don’t go back down. Eventually, you make newer, stronger relationships and stronger bonds with your family/friends that you forgot to appreciate when you were with someone else (not that you didn’t, but I’m just saying) and then someone else will come along…for you to talk to but you’ll be more careful this time cause there’s that scar there to remind you and yourself that you don’t want to fall back down the stairs you worked really hard to climb.”
