HeartBreak Drake Vol 2
Drake hinted about new music leaks coming monday via twitter, but Dre from OS/NR says he was not referring to the new material that leaked today. These songs (see after the jump) are actually from this new mixtape “Heartbreak Drake Pt 2.”
Queen
When I first seen her face, I had to give her respect only because she was with her man. Seen them both walking out the supermarket, she was holding all the bags and he was just smoking a black and mild happened to hop into a cab. Got on the phone and never looked back, she was posse to meet him at the house; but how was she going to do that. She had no cash, and then she was looking confused in the parking lot with no idea what she should do now. Both of her hands filled with plastic bags.
I got in my car, not even thinking about the world. I couldn’t get over her beauty; I couldn’t get over her struggling with those bags. Its was getting dark, not saying she couldn’t hold her own I just knew I would feel better about the situation if I would at least ask if she needed a ride.
So then I asked: “ Excuses me miss, I see you were having trouble with all your groceries, I was wondering if you wanted a ride?... If not I understand you don’t want to put your life in the hands of a stranger, but I am more than that.”
She was confused at first on my initial intentions, and what I had planned to do with her. She didn’t know if her body was going to end up on the 6 o’clock news, I cant blame her on the thought things happen. I don’t know if the shoe was on the other foot if I would of done the same thing. Regardless she got in my car, I got out and took those bags off her hands.
By time I dropped her off we had already exchanged numbers, from the begging I tried to show her what a real man is suppose to do. Did things that she wasn’t use to, caught her off guard; open doors for her, looked her in the eyes and told her I want to make her my Queen.
Things were moving fast, maybe too fast. Can’t complain on speed I rather am in the fast life than not moving at all. Two months later, she went from a regular visitor at my apartment to moving in. All because of a toothbrush, now I am glad it happened just wish it would of happened a little slower.
She brought more than her baggage when she moved in.
Tried to tell her she wouldn’t have to look back, but I guess she felt that it was all going downhill like the others. I tried to bring out the Queen in her, now her X is calling collect, from behind the wall. I am asking her, how he got the number; she got scared than I told her. “ I don’t know what you think this is, I am laid back and your known for getting pimped smacked” I was just trying to show what love really was but she was accustom of the life she had so I let her keep it.
When you make a girl leave her man, you never really know where she stand, how do you know she really yours. Someone can easily do the same to you.

Fork in the Road
Young enough to still have dreams, about the things I want to do, and how I want to change the world. As I sit here, and watch my time run out, I am lost. Listening to everyone except myself, you would think the second quarter just started and I still had a chance to make a difference. But I am looking at the game, from the eyes of the losing coach in the fourth quarter and if I don’t switch up now; I never will. The way I smile you would think I never had a problem in life, but now I am stuck between a rock and a hard place, all you can do is push. But my arms been tired and the only thing that keeps me moving are the two things under my torso.
It’s funny how a year can change your entire outlook on life. I remember when I got that cherry letter in the mail, felt disrespected like the least thing they could of did was send it in a regular envelope. Either way my social life is at an all time high, all because of what Philly has done for me. I don’t know why I feel some type of way, when I look around I is not the only one with a plan; I am not the only one with my head on backwards focusing on the past. Thinking about the today and the day before, but never about tomorrow and the next day. Kicking it with my friends, I feel like they all saying if “life is going to pass me by at least I want to watch.” Am I posse to understand the world at the age of 20? I doubt it but I don’t think I have ten years to pass the class and finally understand the meaning of it.
All this is a crossroad, but I might as well call it a fork in the road. I know I get a little emotional when my life is hanging in the balance, but what am I suppose to do. If I stand here, on the destroyed concrete that is to say I will ever walk away. They say Jersey roots and Global reach, but I been down this road before and it only got me to Philadelphia. Everyone says they see the potential, but I don’t know where it is going to take for me to reach success. When is this potential going to get me more than a Coke and a smile? I need more. Matter fact I am striving for more, I cant sit around and watch the next day pass me. I look at everything that has ever happened to me in this state of mind and it hasn’t got me far. A few tickets, a crazy ex girlfriend, and two handfuls of frienemies. Nothing changes in a year except my location and residency. I said 21, I should be away from this garbage but the smell of Jersey follows you across the Betsy Rose and the Benjamin Franklin. Either way I need to make a choice by next week, so I will keep you updated.

W.N.I.K.E
Sir Charles Barkley is the hilarious glue that holds TNT’s NBA studio shows together. Gary Payton and Chris Webber are easily the two best reasons to tune into NBA TV (aside from obscure first-round playoff games, of course). Webber sometimes moonlights on TNT, dishing it with Sir Charles as well as he did from the power forward position. Webber wore Nikes early in his career, but the *turrible* move to Dada may have cost him a spot in this new Nike ad campaign.
Chuck and the Glove are working together on Nike Basketball’s W.N.I.K.E. viral net ‘radio station’. The idea is to push for outdoor ballin’ during the summer months and they’ve added to blacktop-geared releases like theAir Zoom Sharkalaid. Enter the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III XDR. Along with the new Ultimate Pure Grip rock, the Soldier III’s eXtra Durable Rubber makes it a perfect fit for your blacktop business. W.N.I.K.E. is also pushing the Nike Dream Season, but no word yet on whether Kobe Bryant’s secondary shoe will see an XDR release. via FRESHNESS
