International Gujarati
“International Gujarati”, India’s answer to Gangnam Style, comes from a Desi HipHop artist or shall we say Gujarati HipHop artist who goes by the name of iQ. His fans affectionately refer to him as Gujjubhai, literally translating to elder brother from the state of Gujarat. Gujjubhai plays the character of a humorous Gujarati Robin Hood – a Sarkar type man of the people, who is proud to be Gujarati. Gujaraties are known for certain things, like their food, their celebration of life, leadership in business & of course politics which are all integral elements of this song. Check out “International Gujarati”
We’re seeing a revolution in Gujarat unfold before our very eyes, from Bollywood movies like “Kai Po Che” to Political leaders like Narendra Modi and now Music like “International Gujarati”. Filmed in Paris, Las Vegas, San Francisco and Gujarati – “International Gujarati” takes us through day in the life of Gujjubhai – flowing with swag, references to BJP, freeing hostages and eating Jalebies from a tiffin, this truly is the Gangnam Style of Gujarat!
iQ aka Gujjubhai teams up with Executive Producer Sanjoy Deb, Music Producer Haji Springer and Video by Kunal Agarwal Productions to follow up on the success of his 2012 video “Gujubhai“. “International Gujarati” will have you ordering some EDM with HipHop and twist of Gujju with your next Gujarati thali dinner. Watch as Gujjubhai travels the globe, from Paris to Las Vegas to San Francisco to India with nothing but his bodyguards and beloved tiffin entertaining audiences of all ages. Swag, Politics, Humor, Jalebies – what more does a Gujarati need to survive?

In response to politicians the chastising Jay Z and his wife Beyonce received for their recent visit to Cuba, Jay Z did what he does best…delivers lyrical missiles.
I’m so glad he didn’t just take it and let it ride…the stupidity from the United States towards the people of Cuba has gone on long enough. Where you aware that in order to get a visa to visit Cuba that you have to get that issued from the Treasury Department? Yup, that is the organization that can freeze your money and also is home to the FBI and a host of other alphabet boyz…this is some insanity on a whole new level.

EXCUSE BOOK for Politicians Hits #1 on Amazon Hot New Releases List

The Politician’s Essential EXCUSE BOOK: by Andrew Murray Howe V
CINCINNATI, Jan. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ – In a sign of the times, Andrew Murray Howe V’s The Politician’s Essential EXCUSE BOOK, reached #1 on the Amazon List of Hot New Releases in Entertainment within a week of being published, briefly passing Tina Fey‘s Bossypants. The first in hisEssential EXCUSE BOOK series, Howe takes a timeless swipe at the (unintentionally) funny things uttered by candidates, supporters and pundits during the life and after-life of a political campaign.
“A compendium of sure-fire excuses for any candidate who is down in the polls, makes that unfortunate gaffe, needs to energize a lagging campaign or has the temerity to actually lose an election. A must-have for politicians, pundits, campaign staffers, volunteers, and voters of every party.”
The pocket sized book takes jabs at candidates, parties and positions of all flavors. According to editorJoe Keefe, what he finds striking about the book is that it contains “funny bits of almost-too-real stuff: remedies for when what they meant to say is what they actually said”. Howe mixes truth with humor and satire to arrive at the 78 numbered excuses. Examples:
No. 11
Opponent is pandering to the right
Use when your candidate’s opponent ends a speech with “God Bless America“
No. 12
Opponent is pandering to the left
Use when your candidate’s opponent starts a speech with “My Fellow Americans“
No. 77
The better candidate won.
AKA
[Only if we won. If not, screw them]
The absolute worst excuse ever. Although it is rumored to have been around since the early days of political races in Athens, I cannot find an example of it actually having been used. Don’t even think about using it until your candidate loses seven straight races to the same opponent.
Howe’s Essential EXCUSE BOOK series is based on his Hall of Fame great-grandfather’s 1904 book of horse racing excuses: The Trottin Hoss Excuse Book, which remains a classic in racing circles to this day. The next book in the series will be The Physician’s Essential EXCUSE BOOK, with more to follow. The books will be available as paperback or eBooks on Amazon.com and the author’s website, ExcuseBooks.com.

He spends a good deal of his time helping individuals, developers and banks work through defaulted loans without going broke or crazy.

The King of New Jack Swing, Teddy Riley announces global talent search.
Grammy Award winning and multi-platinum music producer/composer/arranger/songwriter and recording artist Teddy Riley has begun his global talent search for songwriters and producers to come aboard his powerful and far-reaching movement, TR Music Group. His company, a partnership with crooner Keith Sweat, boasts a record label, publishing department and talent agency.
2012 marked the 25-year anniversary for Teddy Riley being the creator/architect of the “New Jack Swing” genre of music, according to his bio. In recent years, Teddy expanded his global movement by successfully delving into the K-Pop genre, and is credited for being the first African American to bring Korean Pop Music (K-Pop) to the USA.
One of his recent K-Pop success came with his hand-picked girl group “Girls Generation,” who made their US debut to a sellout crowd at Madison Square Garden in October of 201ll. Under his leadership, the group sold nearly 500,000 unites of their No.1 hit LP “The Boys” and logged more than 40 million YouTube views.
A little known fact is that Teddy Riley produced the “Dangerous” LP by Michael Jackson which sold more than 32 million copies worldwide, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and remained on the Billboard 200 chart for 117 weeks! He won a Grammy for Best Engineered Album Non-Classical and the album received three Grammy nominations for Best Pop Vocal Male, Best R&B Vocal male and “Jam” as Best R&B Song. Riley was only 23 at the time.
