The types of images we create ourselves whether to flatter ourselves, compare ourselves, or genuinely improve upon who were yesterday.  Often times the image we create is shaped by so much media, and we go out of our way to place an image that doesn't match up reality, for some people thats the reality; not just on media but even in communities where people care too much on the opinions of ot...

Legacy and Kids Whats the point of building something if dont have someone to pass it down to? But also whats the point of creating something yourself and chasing freedom if you're forced to take something that was built before your time? Farms to cities is the clearest and best examples of this plight of people away from family and land into cities and dreams. Population and employment gaps...

2 main topics here-one being how we as people want membership either through work,  like how authors such as Wendell Berry argue about going back to an agrarian society, or through religion and sub cultures.  Hip Hop is the most powerful religion right now, UN recognized as a religion, and it crosses through languages and borders the same way Christianity and Islam did.  I also talk a bit about di...

Documentation is important not just for the process of media content as independent artist or whatever, but for anyone anywhere. Through a journal, audio notes, blog, or blog documentation allows you to visualize and cement your goals, issues, routine, and emotions in a way that can show you were growth is, like weekly weigh ins on The Biggest Loser. A way to measure and see your progress while al...

Sometimes we are in the habit of doing wrong things and unhealthy habits, but other times we can train ourselves to do the same in the healthier more positive way because we like to get into rhythms; certain routines. Discipline is an important trait to foster well because it will keep us on our good rhythms. IG-@unfilteredvitaminz @thecaptainhummus Twitter-@captainhummus youtube-@zieed

Questions>Answers The why,  Not configuring the solutions based off of problems we create, but shuffling through the problems that arise with solutions we can create to solve the original issue. & cross off another problem from a list instead of adding more why we ask these questions The fact we do means theres something more IG-@unfilteredvitaminz @thecaptainhummus Taptapes app-@Zieed

Enigma lifestyle, what is weird or deviant. What do innovators have in common? How to think outside the box, but not remain out the box. Going from macro to micro and back to the macro. IG-@unfilteredvitaminz @thecaptainhummus Zieed on Youtube

Hip hop, race, and my perspective on social issues in the U.S, the matrix of race, and how I dissect it from having Latino, Arab & Muslim family.  Ig- unfilteredvitaminz thecaptainhummus

3am ish, best time to talk to the universe to get a response back. Saw this as a youtube comment sometime somewhere and it totally holds up most of the time. From Universe talks, to tea time and peanut m&m talks, this episode was a dirty quickie. Hope y'all enjoy S/out to San Jose listening in IG @unfilteredvitaminz @thecaptainhummus

Without FIlter, as the title suggests so this episode dives into a bit of poem I wrote and some story telling touching on Spanish, Arabic, and English rhymes and themes of history of crusades, terrorism, and religion with a little spiel on marriage and relationships. Yo fumo mis purros sin filtros Que broma, ahora no fuma Este marica una ladrona  No ere mi chama, una niña Duerme con pijama, quiere...

Moving around or even traveling for some can be tough. However, often times it is necessary for peace of mind, growth, change, or just to escape. However, escaping in my experience doesnt always pay off. Eventually, whatever you're chasing, it could even be yourself or within you, will eventually catch up or resurface. Often times if you're not happy here, you won't be happy there....

Work Continued-about the importance of managing time but even more so having something to do period with our time. Here our the lyrics below from the rap I shared IG:@unfilteredvitaminz @thecaptainhummus Trabajo trabajo trabajo Pa mañana tengo trabajo El viernes  Muslims descansa El sábado jews descansa Y los domingos españa descansa Para el lunes levantar y cantar No se por donde empezar Perdona...

The importance of work, or at least the concept of having something to do with our time. How important is work for you? "fuck automation, leaving everyone to sit in the filth of contemplation"

Cancer is often in Palestine a word many don't like to use, many times people from my family's village in the West Bank use "the disease thats bad". However, cancerous could be something more than just the uncontrolled replication of cells in our body but mental thoughts n ideas we place our allow others n the media to be implanted. J cole said "these chains are way mental...

How to be everything  How to gain perspective from different people n accomplish many things. Garyvee said we all compare ourselves so why compare to someone who has it "worse than you" no someone like Beyonce and set urself up for disappointment and sadness. J cole said u aint never gonna be happy till you love yours. So some people have only the option or even worse the wish to be able...

Many of us have siblings, I didn't. Nevertheless, to only children or middle child or ones in big families, the way we grow up and the character that develops in the house relates a lot to how we are in the outside world and types of people we become.

There's a saying without enduring winters cold u can't appreciate summers bliss. Freezing my booty in Spain right now but it just means I'll enjoy the great outdoors even more once summer rolls around. Changing of seasons shows changing of moods fashion n diet because of agriculture. But what about with a changing climate? As many sources now estimate by 2050 1/3 of the world can be...

Count up them blessings on your hand every sunrise. Are you more of a morning or nighttime person? More often than not if Im lookin at a sunrise its because I been up instead of just waking up. However, Iv come to finding the peace within being able to go to sleep and knowing I might not wake up, but  if  I do Imma make the best of it and work and be grateful that I got another day. Practicin grat...
