What kinda caterpillar is this, I wonder…

1 thing that helps to solve a Missing Persons case is keeping the story and narrative in public & therefore in the minds quite possibly in the of the unknowing witness(es) that may have “seen or heard” something.

I hope all is alright with the brotha.

Hey was good family. My name is AK, and I am a Hip Hop/Rap Artist, Producer, and a Audio Engineer out of Brooklyn, NY. Scrolling through this Sub forum, I didn't see any threads with personal user submissions, so I figured I'd set it off. Now I've mostly been perfecting my production skills in the past few years, so I'll be dropping alot of new beats I make. But I'm also getting back into the spitting bars flow again, so will definitely be dropping those when the time permits. With that being said, only post YOUR OWN Beats, Songs, Videos you shot/and or edited. I know yall got some heat out there 💪🏾💯

iight, I'ma start it off with a few of my beats. I respect the criticism family 🙏🏾

Amazon is raising its hourly wages for its warehouse and delivery workers, the company announced Wednesday.

Beginning in October, Amazon’s average starting pay for front-line employees in the U.S. will be bumped up to more than $19 per hour from $18 per hour, the company said.

Warehouse and delivery workers will earn between $16 and $26 per hour depending on their position, Amazon added. Amazon’s minimum wage for employees in the U.S. remains $15 an hour.

Amazon is spending roughly $1 billion on the pay hikes over the next year as it looks to attract and retain employees in a historically tight labor market. It’s also preparing to enter what’s known as “peak” season, the especially busy shopping period tied to the holidays.

Tensions have been growing between Amazon and its front-line workforce, particularly during the Covid-19 pandemic. Employees have called for wage increases, more paid time off and adjustments to productivity expectations.

Workers at several Amazon facilities have taken steps to organize, and earlier this year, workers at Amazon’s warehouse in Staten Island, New York, successfully voted to form the company’s first U.S. union. Amazon faces another union election at a site near Albany, New York, next month.

The company said earlier this month it planned to raise pay and benefits for drivers employed by members of its contracted delivery network, which handles a growing share of its last-mile deliveries to customers doorsteps.

Alongside the pay increase, Amazon said it’s also expanding a payday advance program for its employees that allows them to access up to 70% of their eligible earned pay whenever they choose and without fees, not just on a schedule, such as a biweekly basis.

Too early for me to be laughing this loud.

Not tryna coon or anything (spare me! lol). I just thought we could engage in a little… study— of some of the admirable traits of white people. The idea being that studying this, will help us to grow, in our own good traits. I’ll go first—

Their appreciation of theater, and their common Will to unite in their cause.

Figured it would happen. Biden is now taking the option for student loan forgiveness away from those who received a perkins loan and the Federal Family Education Loans (FFEL). It is said that only 770,000 people will not qualify. And that there was well over 4 million people who either had a perkins or FFEL loan.

The reason this change happened, was because 6 republican led states put lawsuits against it. Some dumb reason about banks not getting their interest from the loans.


I think I had a perkins loan, shit lol.

There is no other group of people that has the global cultural influence of black American culture. If there is, I'd like to know. More people under 25 listen to, imitate and admire black Americans, black American music, slang, etc, than any other group. Every continent. No exceptions. I've seen it personally.

There is so much 'soft' power for influence we don't realize. You know who realizes? White America does and that's why they study black Americans more than anything else. There are literally very quiet, undercover departments of major consumer and media companies that do nothing but study black America.

It's why if changes are going to happen for blacks globally, it has to be in America. No other area has the numbers of people who will put in the work to get as much done. The UK has some, but not enough. South Africans are dealing with their own but will be receptive. I think after American blacks get theirs, the UK and South Africa are what I guess will be the next place to kick off. The surprising thing is you don't see it as much in Canada despite being closest culturally to America than any other place.
