Drake announces release date for More Life

By
No more cryptic teases in Swedish. It seems we finally have an official release date for Drake's new music, thanks to video posted to Instagram on Saturday.
The clip takes fans through Drake's life on the road as he descends a private jet, skirts the paparazzi, and parties in a club. The video ends with a title card for More Life and the date March 18. The rapper previously posted and then deleted a message in Swedish to social media with a note about March 4. That date came and went, which was probably why the post was deleted in the first place.
Watch below.

Annie~Joy writes: Don't Be The Reason Why Somebody Will Commit Suicide. Part 3. Be Inspired!

By
There is no way somebody will just wake up with the intension of " I want to or I will take my life". Every smoke is got fire. As a writer, while I advise or motivate the cat, then I advise the mouse too.  The human body has got blood running through it and the same body has a sense of feeling which reacts to pain, hurt, sorrow and many more. Also, everyone’s got an individual difference, some are able to recover from pain, hurt, etc in a short period of time while others take a very long time. It becomes very risky when you are dealing with the one who's sense of humor take a very long time to recover. Any pain which stays in the human body system for long can turn out to be poison and bitterness.  Allow me use the key word "the feeling of taking revenge" either one; to herself for being used Two; you the person who has caused the pain. Why would you hurt someone for the person to have the feel of taking his or her life? Allow me ask this question;…
