The Best/Worst People/Moments of 2020! & Past Decade!

I'd say from a decade standpoint, the best moment was when I read scientists from all over the world contributed to taking an image inside a blackhole.

Didn't expect to hear about that in my lifetime.

The first image of a black hole shows a bright ring with a dark, central spot. That ring is a bright disk of gas orbiting the supermassive behemoth in the galaxy M87. The spot is the black hole’s shadow.




“We’ve been studying black holes so long, sometimes it’s easy to forget that none of us have actually seen one,” France Córdova said in the Washington, D.C., news conference.


The supermassive beast lies some 55 million light-years away in a galaxy called M87

2011-2019 I know Andre Ward was given that distinction, I'll go PBF for going 9 str8 championship wins, started the decade fighting a young fighter. Got a few notches with soon to be cash cow Canelo, Big Name Pac.

Didnt fight the last few years, but nothing great came afterwards IMO.


Starting off 2020- I got Teofomo as the man! However I don't expect him to retire undefeated. If he does what he is supposed to do, he will lose against a great(er) fighter. Had Lomachenko won, I would have placed him over PBF.

I may change my mind, but off the top, the worst moment of the past decade was April 21, 2016, Prince passed.

I bought all his albums from 1978, to oh, Sign O The Times.
My first few bands were all Prince/Time Wannabe bands LOL!


I dressed like Morris Day.

His influence on music is beyond deep. When he fired Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis- it was those 2 that took a no-album selling Janet Jackson and wrote/produced her biggest albums.

Without Prince bringing them on, she would've never had songs like Control, Nasty, Pleasure Principle. After her, other women started doing 100 dancers in a video.


Chaka Khan the R&B singer has faded into obscurity, but her revival was a song called I feel for You that brought her a grammy in the 1980s. Well, that song was written by Prince and recorded on his 2nd album.


Prince's version:



Without Prince, Sinead Oconner's big hit, wouldn't have ever occurred


Prince's version

I heard of a Sheena Easton, she had a song called morning train or something, well when Prince got with her!



Written by Prince. Sugarwalls, aka inside her vagina, damn, Prince hit some the finest boo-tay!!


And of course they went on to do their duet and that topped the charts, I'm not sure if Sheena wrote any hits after that.

Prince was so cold with the language of the soul (music) he went on to influence a jazz group that few knew he could go there. They were called Madhouse and the leader was Prince's saxophone player named Eric Leeds.

They did 2 albums only and for fusion lovers, it was the SHIT!!

This is the entire 1st album they did. Again, without Prince? No Eric Leeds. No Eric? No Madhouse


Their 2nd- For Fusion lovers? enjoy!!!

Prince's 1st bass Player Andre Cymone never had big hits, just one song that topped the R&B charts. Guess who wrote it? yup Prince!




Prince recruited then fired a member that only hardcore Prince fans know of. Alexander O'Neil. He was supposed to be the leader of the Time. Too many stories on what happened, but what we do know, was a few years later Jimmy & Terry hooked him up with a woman named Cherrelle, together they had one of the biggest R&B hits called Saturday Love.
Alexander's Innocent was also a #1 and You can hear the influence Prince had on him

In my day if you were a tight band -You HAD to KNOW THIDS to Play at the clubs


Again, no Prince? How does Alexander O'Neil get the hook up with Jimmy & Terry?

I am sure Prince shagged all of them. Lucky man.
