After finding God, I took to my natural instincts and denounced hip-hop and its elements because I viewed them as bad influences. However, I grew up with the culture and therefore could not give up on it that easily. After a 4-month hiatus from hip-hop, I have revamped myself to find the positivity in it.
The Boston hip-hop scene is just oozing with positivity and on Feb. 16, 2013, over 200 people went to Paris Street Art Gallery in Everett to buy sneakers and T-shirts, take pictures of wonderful art, and watch B-Boy/B-girl Battles, and MC performances during Can I Kick it.
Due to my love of positivity I decided to find out why Can I Kick it is good for the youth. “Events like this are good for my kids because it gives them an opportunity to use their money wisely,” said Missy Raduazzo, a parent who brought her children to the event “ and it gives them an incentive to do better in school”.

Maine has clean air, fresh water, and some good lobster & seafood. I went up to Maine with my wife and family this past weekend. It’s good to take time to get away from the city and get in touch with nature. The earth is a beautiful place.
Amazing view of the Atlantic Ocean, Perkins Cove, ME.
I saw a Dad and his two son’s building these awesome rock sculptures. It looks like they spent hours building these. How many do you see here? Rock sculpture on the beach. Close up view.
B-Boy Pumpkin man. I saw this cool scarecrow in Perkins cove.

A new mural in Boston by Os Gemeos, Portuguese for “the twins”(from Brazil). Covering the wall near the Rose F. Kennedy Greenway. I was walking by South Station this past week and all of a sudden I saw this! I heard about these two Brazilian guys that painted an amazing piece in Boston. I knew this had to be it.
