Celtics Life

Hey World,

I just got home not too long ago w/ my son from watching the Celtics brutalize the Milwakee Bucks. The Celtics are doing they're thing and with the couple of trade offs, the new members are finding their place on the team nicely...I smell number 18...not that we need another ring, but it's always nice to switch up with our outfits...Big shouts out to Grand Theft Rondo, The 3-point King - Ray Allen, Fierce Pierce and my main man, Mr. Trash Talking KG! Got to love them!!!

I know it's been a little while since you've heard from me on my blog, but I've been on my grind. Writing for Total Eclipse has been an eye opening experience and it is really great getting to know alot of the artists that I truly love like Eric Roberson, Conya Doss, Howard Hewitt and Calvin Richardson.

I've also been very active in community events and am on quite a few committees that keep me very busy. One in particular is the "Having a Ball, Keeping the Faith" Benefit. We'll be celebrating 15 years of helping disabled individuals and it's been such an amazing thing to see how a group can come together to bless a family, just because it's the right thing to do. Stay tuned for more on the many upcoming events for this and Total Eclipse as well.


Until next time,

Soul in the City signing off...
