Weekend Wrap-Up
This memorial weekend had to be the best for myself. I was able to somehow disconnect my laptop away from my fingers and spend some high quality time with my lovely wife and hilarious 3 year old son. I had all these ideas prior to the “mini-vacation” to have post running while I was out…but why? Readers need a time off as do writers.

Quick Blogs
My write-ups usually don’t take too long and in average takes me less than 45 minutes (non-stop) to write.

Yet, the question is what is this “great opportunity”?

Weekend Stats
On my main webiste: HipHopRemix I sometimes take a step back on posting new music, news, mixtapes, etc. Also it should go without saying there is not a lot that happens in the hip hop community over the weekend. From Friday morning to Sunday evening at most 3-4 new tracks leak but nothing earth shattering. So, how do you overcome this because it does have an effect in your stats.

Going The Extra Mile
“Extra” is sometimes hard to come by in the business industry. It’s always promised but 99% of the time it comes with strings or as soon as you try to ‘call it in’ they forgot all about it. So the question is…how hard is it to go the extra mile?
