Two-O’Clock Tea By Brenna Griswold

There I sat, completely still in the cool and thick darkness. I could hear the kettle beginning to cry out, as if in pain from the boiling water within it. Shortly she would return, as it was growing near to two-o’clock, to choose her tea and pour the water. It wasn’t an unpleasant thing to experience, but it wasn’t something I looked forward to.

CHECK OUT CHANCE THE RAPPER’s COLORING BOOK BY DJ Lopes

This album is an excellent showcase for the Chicago born rapper, and the Grammys, in my opinion, are very well deserved. If you haven’t already listened, I highly suggest it. If you have listened and didn’t like it, I implore you to give it another, closer listen, and really get to appreciate the ins and outs of the album. If you have listened and loved it, much like me, why not give it another listen or 100? It’s definitely worth it for any fan of rap to listen to and even for those who aren’t fans to give it a try.

DOES THE NBA FORCE PLAYERS TO CHOOSE $$$ OVER EDUCATION? By DJ Lopes

Even in cases of college athletes, many don’t care much for their education, rather looking forward to their future in sports. According to the official NCAA website, the absolute minimum GPA required to stay on the team is 1.8 (on a 4.0 scale). In the case of number one pick in the 2016 NBA draft, Ben Simmons, he outright stopped attending classes as the NCAA season started. He showed no real love to anybody at his college, LSU, and claimed to keep no friends at the college. In fact, the only reason he attended LSU was because his godfather was an assistant coach, who now no longer works for LSU, with Simmons in the NBA.
