Cheesekids Nelson Mandela Day - Atteridgeville Community Takeover

Cheesekids is an NGO made up of young people who put in the most prized commodity - time - to help those less fortunate and in need. We've been involved in Nelson Mandela volunteering campaigns since 2009 where we have provided a platform for people of all ages and backgrounds to lend 67 minutes of their time in honour of Nelson Mandela to those who need a hand. On the 20th of July we did things a little differently and went to a specific community called Atteridgeville Township in Tshwane where thousands of volunteers came and helped on different sites around the community making it better off. Cheesekids will occupy the community for 3-4 months and hold different projects to help and empower the community.

Ultimately we hope to inspire people to volunteer and do good for communities and people less fortunate than them. To join us please visit www.cheesekids.org.za andhelp make our country a better place.

KEEP ON GRINDING

Another late night because We Don't Sleep. "Keep on grinding" is the motto. Kanye West's "Blood on the Leaves" on replay. Those bombastic horns and Nina Simone's haunting voice are everything!!!!

KEEP ON GRINDING!

A New Beginning

Just finished writing two reviews and a feature piece. Been at it since ten am. Took a two hour break to take my bestie to the airport then got back into it. Listening to Wale's "The Gifted" now trying to finish my third review. The month of June was a historical one for hip-hop! Kanye, J.Cole, Wale dropped! The new agesters also dropped with Joey Bada$$ and Mac Miller dropping as well. So much music I can't keep up! Now July has Jay-Z(the greatest rapper alive!) Pusha and Fabo dropping as well! What an awesome Winter for music! So its only right that I get to analyse and document these lovely offerings. For the first time ever I'm feeling so hungry to work. I've had the biggest holiday and now its time to brush off the lethargy and get into it. The only thing I have left to do is to KEEP IT CONSISTENT. That's all we really need to do in life. LEARN GOOD HABITS AND KEEP THEM UP. That's all we need to do.
