Comedians of Social Media: Young-Joc Is One
Instagram

This past week well-known hip-hop artist "Yung Joc" took over social media revealing his new look. The rapper posted a picture on Instagram with what seem to resemble a woman's hair cut with a textured perm and was extremely proud and excited about it. If he only knew that his fans would not only hate it but crash the internet with tons of "memes" and video blogs, rants, and chats.

Artist "Yung Joc" is known for his frequent appearances on the VH1 hit show "Love and Hip Hop Atlanta" as he vocalizes his troubles with the ladies. However, before the reality show "Joc" had a very successful career in the early 2000's hitting the music billboard top ten charts with mega hits and even being named in "Forbes" magazine as one of the richest rappers at that time.

Besides his televised struggles with women "Yung Joc" is well respected for his work in the industry but I guess his come back to fit in today's music world wasn't a good choice. "Joc" new hair do sent many in an uproar but turned into a comedy show. At a whooping 17000 posts of memes and photo shopped photos between Facebook and Instagram. The funny thing is that the rapper isn't upset about this, "Joc" actually finds it very funny and is happy that his name is popular again just not in the way he imagined.

The question is do you think "Yung Joc" destroyed his career with this new hair cut? Does he have the chance to make a big come back and revive his career again or should he just stick to reality television? Well, sorry I find it quite hilarious but I really think it was a bad move. Glad he is not angry and continues to smile about it!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
