Earlier today I was buildin’ with one of my boys, who just landed a HUGE situation that’s going to make him a megastar and redefine his industry. Our discussion revolved around how he could leverage this opportunity and take himself to the next level. During our conversation I threw around jargon like “The Long Tail” perspective and the “Web 2.0″ phenomenon…consequently we came to the most important variable BRANDING!

Now I’m not just talking about BRANDING a product, but more so BRANDING YOU! I constantly reflect on a fastcompany magazine article about this very topic. People tend to forget that we all represent a BRAND in some shape or form. Some would consider YG to be a BRAND, but at the end of the day YOU have control over how YOUR BRAND is communicated, received, and understood.

Check out the infamous article that I keep next to my Bible and Koran!

The Brand Called You!

Has everyone in the US forgotten about antitrust laws? Was the life work, the professional haterism by Roosevelt and Taft all in vain? The very essence of the antitrust platform from which it was formulated, and the government agency set to regulate it, has been somehow overlooked by the boys at Apple. What happened to unreasonable exclusionary practices that serve to entrench or create monopoly power being deemed unlawful?

The haters that once went after so many other companies by suing them have gone soft. Are the good old boys just plain tired of “fighting the good fight?” It was the grand hater Senator John Sherman that said,”If we will not endure a king a political power we should not endure a king over the production, transportation, and sale of any of the necessaries of life.” To a certain extent, I have a little hater in me too. Therefore, I am inclined to agree in parts. I hate the fact that I received 30 emails from friends I havent heard from in years over a phone. Namely the omnipotent Iphone– Woo-py!!! They have given us what? A phone that I saw in Japan 2 years ago?

Americans compose the greater whole of the lot of suckers. We were once steamrolled with the McDonaldization of America and it took us only 20 years to realize it. Most silly Americans actually believe that Andy —Wharholed the world – lol. yeah right! So, here we are again with the Ipod. Being pushed into our vulnerable lives like dare commercials in the 90’s with that teenage dealer scouting at the playground. You know the one- he is like “hey kid, you like to flyyy.” lol Does anyone care that the iphone will be released exclusively to Cingular? That Steve Jobs probably “became” the majority shareholder? Pimps refer to this maneuver as a DU-LO (save to say, your getting fucked) Countrymen, I present to you technology that will bring down the iphone and other mediocre apple peripherals. It is called Perceptive Pixel technology and this is absolutely amazing…

This young man John Legend (Stevens) has really out done himself with his latest video. Not only does he have “Rocket” from City of God in the video, but he was able to capture the true essence of what makes Rio such an incredible city. After watching this video, Brasil WILL definitely (God Willing) happen in 2007. The holidays in Brasil sounds like a good plan to me.
