The Unexpected Echo of Soul
My initial quest was a familiar pilgrimage: a search for the timeless, velvet-smooth sounds of Al Green. I was in the mood for the classic soul that soothes the spirit and elevates the day. Yet, as so often happens when wandering the digital aisles of music, I took an unexpected detour.

Instead of the Reverend, I stumbled upon a relatively unknown track called "Gas Station Love," performed by an artist named EJ Jones. From the very first notes, I was captivated. His voice possessed an undeniable richness, a raw, lived-in quality that bypassed the brain and went straight to the heart. It wasn't just a performance; it felt like a transmission from a bygone era.

Listening to EJ Jones sing "Gas Station Love" was an almost uncanny experience. The song wasn't just old-school—it felt ancient in the best possible way. The soulful ache, the masterful delivery, the way he effortlessly bent the notes... it had me completely floored and wondering: Which of the great soul pioneers, a musical grandfather long departed, had been reincarnated back to earth to sing through this man's vocal cords?

It was a beautiful, stirring reminder that the lineage of true soul music never truly ends; it simply finds a new vessel.

"Your level of success will seldom exceed your level of personal development because success is something you attract by the person you become." - Jim Rohn

Money matters with Craig Wright. In a world where every little thing seems to matter so much, I still believe that the path to success requires having strong character, sound judgment, and expertise - these remain the recipe for success. As you evolve, you face a choice: become the person that someone else wants you to be, or become the person that you see yourself becoming. Success is driven by these basic principles.

This hit me differently today as I was thinking about leadership and teamwork.
In business (and life really), we all bring something unique to the table - different backgrounds, experiences, ways of seeing problems and solutions. That's actually our superpower! But the magic happens when we remember that these differences are just part of the story, not the whole story.
The best teams I've been part of? They celebrate what makes each person special while staying focused on what we're all working toward together. It's not about ignoring our differences or pretending they don't matter - it's about not letting them become walls between us.
Whether you're leading a team, starting a business, or just trying to work well with others, this mindset can change everything. Our diversity makes us stronger, but our shared purpose keeps us moving forward.
Just some thoughts on this Thursday! What do you think? How do you see this playing out in your own work or life?

Mariah Carey Served Up Pure Fire at the BET Awards
Yo, let me tell y'all about the absolute heat that Mariah Carey brought to the BET Awards stage! When I say this woman came through with that energy, I'm talking about the kind of performance that had everybody in their feelings and reaching for their phones to record every single second.
The Queen Delivered That Summer Anthem
Miss Mariah didn't just perform – she blessed us with what's about to be THE summer anthem that's gonna have everybody in their cars, at the cookouts, and on every playlist from now until the leaves start changing. This new track she unveiled? Pure magic. It's got that smooth vibe that only Mariah can deliver, mixed with that contemporary sound that's gonna have Gen Z and millennials alike hitting repeat.
The way she walked out on that stage with that confidence, you already knew it was about to be a moment. And when those first notes hit? The crowd went absolutely wild. People were on their feet before she even got to the first verse because you could just feel that this was something special brewing.

"We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works." – Douglas Adams, The Salmon of Doubt: Hitchhiking the Galaxy One Last Time
As professionals in a world increasingly driven by technology, we often find ourselves tangled in the complexities of the tools we rely on. It's easy to get lost in the chase for the "latest and greatest," but at the end of the day, what we really want is simple: solutions that just work.
This quote resonates deeply with me and the work that I am trying to do over at Bes Outkast Society the Magazine, my work focuses on demystifying technology and making it more accessible and functional for everyone. I live by the belief that technology should be intuitive, effective, and easy to use—not a source of frustration.

Instead, I am focused on practical, real-world applications that actually solve problems—allowing you to get back to what matters most: achieving your goals with minimal effort.
By reading my insights, you will walk away smarter, engage, and informed.
In a world of endless updates and features, Let me remind you that sometimes the best solution is one that simply works—no gimmicks, no complexity.

Poolside Playlist Vibes
Posted up by the pool today and diving into some of the freshest music just in time for summer!
I kicked off my musical journey with Remy Bond’s “MovieStar”—and let me tell you, my inner disco queen came OUT.
Then I switched gears and turned up the heat with Cil’s “HotSh*t”—definitely a track that lives up to its name.
Followed it up with a cool vibe from Honey Bxby – “Laying In His Bed”—smooth, sultry, and perfect for a poolside chill.
Took it back a bit with a splash of retro from The Castellows – “Old Way”—because sometimes a little nostalgia hit just right.
Then came the perfect groove: Justine Skye x Kaytranada – “Oh La La”
And to top it all off? I threw in some edge with Green Day’s “One Eyed Bastard”—because a summer playlist needs a little rock kick!
Whether you’re poolside, beach-bound, or backyard lounging—this mix is giving sunshine, sass, and serious vibes.
What are you listening to this summer? Drop your recs!

In the world of business and finance, loss is inevitable—deals fall through, markets shift, and certainty is fleeting. Yet, as Emerson wrote, ‘In the presence of nature, a wild delight runs through the man, in spite of real sorrows.’ There’s a truth in that: amid volatility, we instinctively reach for something steady—something unshakable. It might be values, vision, or simply the quiet clarity found outside the noise. In loss, there’s a strange clarity that reminds us of what endures. And for the man who leads, that balance—between letting go and holding fast—is where real strength lies

Fashion, like food, thrives on variety. Imagine eating the same meal every day—safe, familiar, but uninspired. That’s what relying solely on gray, blue, and black suits feels like. It’s time to change the menu.
Suits don’t have to be uniform. They can be expressive, bold, and full of flavor. Rich earth tones, vibrant jewel shades, subtle patterns, unexpected textures—each one adds depth and personality. Think of your wardrobe as a curated tasting menu, with each suit offering a new experience, a new way to express who you are.
A well-tailored suit in an unexpected color doesn’t scream—it speaks. It tells the room you know who you are. It’s not about abandoning timeless style; it’s about expanding it, infusing it with creativity, confidence, and personal taste.
Sticking to the same style every day is like ordering the same dish forever—it’s safe, but you miss out on everything else the world has to offer.
So go ahead—try something new. Mix the classics with a twist. Be bold with a print, daring with a color, thoughtful with your textures. You don’t need to change everything. Just don’t be afraid to change something.
Because fashion, like eating, is meant to be savored. And no one remembers the guy who always orders the plain suit.
This only applies if you Dare!
