The First Beef of 2017

It's only the beginning of the year, and it's a new beef.

The First Beef of 2017
E!

We are only in the first few weeks of 2017, and a beef in the music world has already taken place. Chris Brown, the multi-talented artist got into a confrontation with rapper Soulja Boy about a week ago. If you have no clue who Chris Brown is, search for his hit singles "Kiss Kiss" or "Run It!". Literally every girl was in love with him when they were in middle school, including me. If you don't know who Soulja Boy is, search "Crank Dat". Everybody would dance to his songs at the middle school dances, including me.

Chris Brown and Soulja Boy, like every person in the world, have their flaws and demons. We all know the situation with Brown and Rihanna, the constant visits to jail, the list goes on. Soulja Boy has done some crazy stuff too, such as going to jail, being sued by different people for his stage name, stupid beefs with other artists, and even being involved in a controversy with the U.S. Armed Forces. Everybody makes mistakes, that's obvious. These two men, being celebrities however, have all their business laid out for the world to see.

You're probably wondering how this beef started. The answer is Instagram. If you don't remember, Chris Brown was dating socialite Karreuche Tran, a woman who people also call Karate, Kellogg, Kamikaze, Kit Kat, the list goes on. A few days back, Soulja Boy commented on one of Tran's photos on Instagram. Chris Brown is still not over the fact Karreuche does not want him back, so he took offense to Soulja Boy commenting or liking Tran's picture. Soulja Boy made matters worse when he brought Royalty, Chris Brown's daughter into the mix.

Chris felt disrespected and picked a fight. This led to videos being posted by both Chris and Soulja Boy saying how they would challenge each other and just fight it out. The two men even got boxers Adrien Broner and Floyd Mayweather into the mix. Mayweather said he would be hosting the pay-per-view boxing match where Soulja Boy and Chris would be fighting to settle the matter.

What do you think? Chris Brown has been doing well for himself. He has hits after hits every year. Soulja Boy has been doing well for himself as well, but not so much. Did Soulja Boy start this just to get some spotlight on him? Did he really just want to be petty? Who will win the fight if their will actually be a fight?

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
