"Started Thinkin' Bout DR, Now We're HERE!" -NEW DRAKE "Started From The Bottom" Video Remixed By the Block Boys

Months in the making the Block Association (aka "the Block Boys") have been planning to do a lil' R&R, team bonding vaca' for a extended weekend for a while now! We set the date for March 7th but the excitement had been building for years! And let me tell you it's not from a lack of trying, but simply getting all NINE members (now 12 including the High Flyers Club) on the SAME schedule! Especially when most of our members are jet setters already. But it happened! And as expected it was THE BEST TRIP EVER!!! I was the most fun I've had recently in my adult life...Hands down! We totally enjoy each others company in a small livingroom setting, but the change of environment was definitely a bonus! Praying that the storm didn't f**k up our plans, we all managed to escape from NYC in the nick of time. Even though half the team missed their flight at the airport (?!?) leaving out. But I'll save that story for another time. But until then peep the reckless lifestyle we got into while you we're freezing your asses off in NYC! LOL. S/O to "THOR"  aka "Chris Hemsworth" aka "Spartacus" and "Dave" our accountant, for making a cameo in the beach scenes. And to @Kimmycakes25 & @Floridagirl1020 for being so freakin' COOL the whole trip! Now without any further interruptions here's "Started from the Bottom" video by DRAKE remixed Block Boys style!

"The Reef, The Reef, The Reef Is On Fire!!!" -Thinking Ahead About Going Away

For as long as I can remember, since the inception of the Block Association, we've always casually tossed around the idea of doing an "away" travel destination trip to give our followers/supporter the same great experience we're always striving for...but on another coast. So now that our movement is stronger than EVER, we recently decided to "explore" the possibility more seriously. Places like Cancun (over done), Aruba (over priced), and London (over seas) were on the list, but blazing a NEW trail is always the goal for us. So through some heavy Internet (soul) searching & an a few associated insider suggestions, Tulum /Playa De Carmen, Mexico came up on the top on the list. Budget friendly pricing, all-inclusive (DRINKS & food!), spacious resort grounds, pool/spa/beach options, and lastly just plain ol' SEXY like a MF'er (!) were the criteria needed to green light our next year venture.  Names were thrown in a hat and '"luck me." I became the one to lead the "scouting party"for a 2hr 20min flight into Cancun w/ a short 20 min shuttle ride to the resort (the Reef) in Playa De Carmen. Woe is me. After being delayed on a 9:40am for 3hrs over some leaking whatever, I arrived just in time for the buffet style dinner display. BTW they have freakin' FOUR restaurants in total on the resort grounds (last one closes at 2am). I was beat from a whole day of travel so I took my ass to bed, only to wake up bright and early to scope out the place and take pics before folks starting spilling out of bed. An speaking of bed, there was a mix up with room bookings so I had to share a room with a former runner up for Brazil's "Miss Bum Bum" pageant?!? But I didn't fuss an make an ass (no pun intended) of myself fussing about it, cause I need help on my Brazilian accent/language lessons any ol' way...WIN WIN! With only a single bed in the room my lessons had to go into crash course mode A$AP ROCKY! LMAO Anyway back to the actual trip, I must stay I was one of my BEST experiences being out of the country! Besides the GREAT weather, the more than friendly staff, the AWESOME food, the round the clock cocktails, it was just DOPE being away for a few days.  I gathered all the info I could muster on the spot and spoke extensively to management there about accommodating a large party of black affluent black folks, looking to turn S**T up! So fingers crossed once I run er'thang pass my team, and run it up the pole, crossing all the T's and what not (as Keith "MAJOR" would say) Hopefully the Block Association will be able to present this as a yearly travel option to our good people that attend our events all year round. Oh and my Brazilian "roommate" "Miss Bum Bum" told me to tell you "Alo" & "Beijos!" That's "hello" and "kisses to you b***hes!" FYI. the rest of my trip I spent modeling for Adidas lifestyle footwear for men those are the pics you'll see at the end. GREASE!
