It seem likes we are all waiting for some savior to rescue us, Why cant we save ourselves from all this destruction going on in the world. If we keep moving on the path that we are moving on then the END will sure come. I believe that it is up to us to act as the angels and heal the world from all this negativity and promote guerrillatastic styles that bring forth our Righteous Souls. I am a spiritual being and I respect ALL Religions, because I was born in the U.S.A., therefore I have been baptized and not isolated from everything that this nation has to offer.

the declaration of the guerrilla styles and righteous soul movement.
In the federal constitutional republic of the United States of America here in the State and City of New York, in the borough of the Bronx on September 2, 2010 written on the D train at 205th Street @ 12:32 a.m. declares the epiphany of the Guerrilla Styles and Righteous Soul Movement!
I Dante Goodrich Giray (aka Divine Giray, aka Divine Styles),
on this second day in the month of September in the year twenty ten declare that I am the founder of the Guerrilla Styles and Righteous Soul Movement! a movement which represents ALL PEOPLE, ALL CULTURES, ALL STYLES creating a style and soul that individualistically represents all of Life's Glory.
Guerrilla Styles is inspired by the GUTTER, the GRITTY, and the GANGSTA elements of society wherein it imposes the rawest form of expression that any human being can rise up from battling any form of adversity and oppression in subtle manners & artistic ways.
As modern technology advances we the people have the tools and ability to promote and advertise independently in the freshest form possible. We use the tools that we have to create expression with full freedom that brings forth
the 7 essences of the movement:
1) Culture
2) Spirituality
3) Divinity
4) Love
5) Joy
6) Life
7) God.
We are the innovators, We are the creators, We are the leaders, We are the Artists, We are the Subtle. We are the Grass Rooted, We are Guerrilla Styles.
Righteous Soul is our Genre which is inspired by the SUFFERING of the world, the OPPRESSION of people, and the DREAM to rise above it all, creating a peaceful union from the ground up. We represent for team GOOD, not team BAD, and we do this because our past has a negative history that may contradict our character and can caste us insane or hypocritical. So we stand for Good at all times representing the Glory of the most high, at this state of mind our soul will naturally gain respect.
As a genre in itself we feed off of
the 7 sounds which are:
1) Soul
2) Afro-Beat
3) Hip Hop
4) Poetry
5) Gospel
6) Indigenous
7) The Radio.
blending all will create the Righteous Soul Sound.
with these inspirations, representations, essences, and sounds we create our freedom as Children of God, & we do all that we can to bring forth Gods light to the Planet Earth, therefore this is why we are the Guerrilla Styles and Righteous Soul Movement. We Represent our Freedom naturally gaining our Prosperity through our Consciousness.
God Bless Us All in our Journeys.
Keep the Faith, and Stay on a Righteous Path.
With Love.

new visions of a better future.
life is beautiful rite about now, Im loving every moment and I am so so so excited for my future. Good things are a comming, and I know this because I am literally keeping my dreams in my pocket. & Im going to keep them to myself.
Just a little brain food... If you have any dreams, try your hardest NOT to share them with the world, because the world will either 1) Shit on your Dreams 2) Steal your Dreams 3) Throw hate on your Dreams.
I love that new Kanye West song "Power" that shit rocks hard, it has been my Motivation to start gaining Power, I really want to buy that book called the 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene. I want to be my own boss, and make my own rules, hire my own people, and take care of them better than Starbucks ever could! I am fearless, and I Love hard! I to am hella independent, so much to the point where Im considering going Bloomberg and joining the independent Party. lol
This is the decade to start conquering dreams. Being More Healthy and diciplining my physique to where I want it to be, So I can gain that cocky confidence, that people I cant stand have. lol. I want to take my life and drive it in the direction of a righteous path, & I want to own hella property. These are my visions for the future and Im hella excited ;) Life is so much better now....

last day @ 6th and waverly.
And the next chapter begins... This is how I feel and I love new chapters, the only thing I hate are the hardships, but, there are hardships in anything that you do. I just prey that my next store is a settle breeze compared with all of the shit that had to put up with at 6th and Waverly. I feel a sense of emancipation as I leave "the wave" which is what I call my store. So get ready for some fun urban new york bloggin because I'm about to blog alot of shit, Rite about now....
So for those who don't know how I'm getting the paper, here I am., a supervisor working for Starbucks Coffee Giant in Manhattan. I started my "Starbucks Journey" downtown in the Financial District @195 Broadway worked there for about a year then got transfer ed to Lafayette & Worth a store in the Tribeca/Chinatown area. I worked there for about 4 years then my dm at the time transferred me to Greenwich Village to a hell hole of a location store called 6th and Waverly, which is the current store I am @ now, "6th and Waverly aka The Wave". I came into the Wave in the Marshall Administration (I call every era with a manager at Starbucks an administration so far I have been through 8) Serenity Marshall,SM was the Queen of the Block. It was a cool team but we evolved as a better team closer to the time Serenity got transferred to a new store. I really had to learn the true aspects of embracing diversity as I got to work with some interesting human beings. Lol. I had my issues but they got dealt with and at the end of the day I was still gettin paid.
Here are some shot outs I want to give to all of my great co-workers in the Marshall Administration.
Felishia, my boo and didn't play with her bar when it came to closing reppin BK Bed Stuy to the fullest. I can see us being cool far beyond starbucks.
Latasha, was a helluva multitasker and could fill in any gap that you needed filled. An all around barstia, when you had Tasha on your shift you all ready knew shit was being held down. a good worker and a good friend.
Nadine, my love, just always made me warm inside, plus she held it down as any Taurus would do. Persistent with perfection. She rocked.
Lauranell, I worked with her for only my first two weeks but just those two weeks I realized that we had one efficient, cool ass partner, ill holla at cha on facebook.
Jillian, was a hoot to work with, even tho some partners couldn't really tolerate her, I thought she was cool to work with, very knowledgeable. And could sing her ass off on stage. I love partners that got a cool ass talent.
Mone, was a hot mess, but she knew it, always wanted to go home, and chill. Still loved her tho. Off the clock. Lol. Her and her Sharon Jones and the dap kings lovin ass. :)
Monte was a cool dude.
Terry aka "Kima" was the hottest mess ever, headache after headache she gave me, she started to be a better worker closer to the time where she quit tho, all I can say is that I missed having a bathroom attendant in the store. 6th and Waverly neeeeeeds a bathroom attendant.
Grant, was crazy. At first I would be like are you for real, but then I realized he was a really genuine good guy.
MiMi, oh how I loved this amazingly cool girl. From the get we clicked and she was one of the most chillist baristas I ever worked with, hopefully in the future I'll meet her on some design project.
Sham, remember that. Lol. ;)@Nadine
Brandi, Was like super shift in my eyes. yo, she is hella fine. stunning, too bad shes married.
Chris, I thought he was trying to run me out of the store when I first got there. But eventually found out he was pretty cool dude. Lol.
Alfie, "Mamm Mamm Mamm" lol I'll never forget. Even though we had our scruffles in our short period working with each other (as Cancers all ways do) he was a crazy ass character to work with, But the funniest ASM ever, so far.
Serenity, even though we were distant at work, she let me do my thing, signin hella contracts. But I dug her style. It was cool to have an experienced boss because she made my schedule so that I could breathe, & on that note and alot of others she was very considerate. (Loved giving her those "Be Considerate" Green Apron Cards) She loved her girls., and even though I never felt comfortable in her circle I have much love and respect for her and for all the time she has given to the company. But she was in and out and worked her hours and took care of business very well.
..... So that was pretty much the peopled that shined in the Marshall Administration,
The MARSHALL Administration
January 2009- September 2009
The SLADE Administration
September 2009- May 2010
Today being my last day I want to big up everybody currently in my store. We are an awesome team and I'm glad I got the opportunity to meet each and everyone of you all.
When the Slade Administration started off I thought she, Zakia Slade, was going to fire everyone and make the store into what she wanted. But she came in the store one day and stated that, "I am here to join your team and Im excited to be a part of th and Waverly, yall my new babies" instantly son-ing us, lol. which softened her up to the store just a tad.
I aint going to lie when Zakia came to the store I was like on some please don't say nothing to me, type mood. Compared to Serenity's Calm, She came in like Busta Rhymes in WhoooHaaa I got yo all in check. Lol, "Im from Brooklyn. I'm hood." and very proud, you couldnt tell her shit cause she's a hardheaded stubborn Cancer, Just like me. stretching every extreme of the emotional ladder to the highest extent. A self professed drama Queen. She was like Rick Ross, she was and is the Boss. But I grew to love her like a big sister.
But, 6th and Waverly still stayed 6th and Waverly; a subway starbucks on a bum ass sidewalk filled with village people, bums, pompous assholes that don't tip, crazies, radio heads, thief's, drunks, water zombies, funky fucks, tourists that don't speak english, bathroom rapists, people that mistake starbucks for a place to have bar fights or a hotel, flashers that jack off in the stores, sickos, and the list goes on........, Seriously one could write a tv show worth of material that could come out of this store. It was like the Nightcourt (the tv show) coruthouse was right around the block. lol
Oh my last day. How it is all flashing before my eyes. But now that this chapter is about to close. I just want to say its been a rough ride. So Im very happy to be leaving this place, and starting a new. Let the shot outs begin cause this is turning into the longest blog ever. lol
The Zlade Administration Rocks! this team was the shit! And Ill miss all of you guys.
Traci, was a great co worker after Felisha left the store Traci got to be the HOB Head of the Bar, my fellow Californian, Traci made me want to strive to eat healthier, Shes seen me be good and be really bad. lol. All in all even though we didn't get many opportunities to explore the city, I enjoyed the times we did. I'm glad to have met this hard working friend, & if you ever need help moving hit me up while I still have my arms and legs lol. Take care and don't let the wave get you down, the options in this city are endless you just got to catch them when you can. :)
Tandice, the NYU filmmaker, I hope conquers her dreams and makes it big, her drive and determination gave me a sense of hope to reach higher. I loved that she was a very thorough co-worker! She rocked, and so did her ipod, lol.
Arlene, my Calfornia bimbo coloumbian brazilian hottie fashion designer barista that got transfered to L.A., She was a hoot and before she went back to California she was developing into a fine tuned barista who held her bathrooms dowwwwn, just like me.
Atrish, Oh My Gwod, Just hope he lasts cause he can be efficient when he wants to be.
Tawanna, turned out to be really cool. Hopefully we can kick it one day. But if not, I am glad to have met a really cool chick holdin down BK. All Day.
Sarah, Sweet Crazy ass Legendery Service ass engaging with coustomers ass, Halal Bread eating ass Conspericy Theory havin ass, Gets it in ass Sarah, I loved her to death and we clicked from the get, Im going to miss all thoese hairstyles, expecially when she came in looking like Storm and then fliped into a filipino. Lol, Sarah Rocks and worked hard for me. And Ill allways apriciate her hard work ethics. She makes the world go round.
Sherborn, even though we didnt get to work together I could see her having potential of being a female Shariff. Keep up the good work, hope you conquer all your dreams and goals in life because you are a very sweet girl.
Sheriff, The Master, was one of the best baristas Ive ever worked with. period.
Marielle, QOR Queen of the Register. Lol. You were a hoot. But I'll still miss you.
Crystal, Big Homie, You held it down, Could be a pain at times but I learned to love you like a big little sister, you are the best! Come cover a shift anytime, "its in your area, lol."
Sade, the model. I'm glad that I got the oppertunity to work with you. Hope we can kick it one day.
Illiana, you were cool, keep working hard and when my birthday comes I want a bottle of some of that DR Smooth shit. You know what's up. ;) We will go out one day now that Im at a different store.
Kiesha,SS Yo when you came in you pretty much took over the mornings. They called you the drill seargeant. But I grown to like you. We both put up with alot of shit, but I allways thought that you had your floor in better order than I could ever had it! You went above and beyond and kept it in shape. 6th and Waverly needs a shift like you. So keep up the good work. :)
Tamara,SS allways helped out when she could, would stay extra to make sure you had a good floor. Tamara also held it down. I'm gonna miss you.
Pablo,SS allways took care of me too. Congrats on being a new Father, I know you will be a good pops. Get that degree and reach higher my dude. Keep in touch, Man.
Zakia, the boss, all I got to say is that it takes a tuff manager to run 6th & waverly, therefore Zakia fits her store like a block puzzle. I allways used to say I wanted to work with her, from the day she used to come into 6th and Waverly and start correcting us on what we need done in the store as an ASM @ Starbucks Sharadon Square. Zakia has a mouth on her and had no fear expressing what she felt at the time. She was real and One of the greatest bosses I have had the oppertunity to work with, never have I had a boss that felt like family to me, Even tho she was strict she made a family atmosphere in the store which I appriciated. Never guns down for nobodys job, and her warm hugs, Ill miss Zakia alot, but we will keep in touch. fa Sho.
6th and Waverly its been great! I had a blast, but Im glad the wave is over cause Im ready to get back to the shore. Hopefully everything will be smooth sailing on this rocky road in life. To all my pat-na's See you on the other side. 1.

I allways used to say I wanted to work with her, from the day she used to come into 6th and Waverly and start correcting us on what we need done in the store as an ASM @ Starbucks Sharadon Square. Zakia has a mouth on her and had no fear expressing what she felt at the time. She was real and One of the greatest bosses I have had the oppertunity to work with, never have I had a boss that felt like family to me, Even tho she was strict she made a family atmosphere in the store which I appriciated. Never guns down for nobodys job, and her warm hugs, Ill miss Zakia alot, but we will keep in touch. fa Sho.
6th and Waverly its been great! I had a blast, but Im glad the wave is over cause Im ready to get back to the shore. Hopefully everything will be smooth sailing on this rocky road in life. To all my pat-na's See you on the other side. 1.

my summer swagger.
So all of my life I have been a very non active person, in terms of voulnteering going to the gym and intentionally getting fit has never really been my style. But dont get me wrong, I want to do all of thoes things, but real talk, Im lazy.
Im so lazy Im tired of being lazy, aint that some shit!?
Ill go to the gym and get tired real quick, If I put in a little bit of effort I tend to get results, so imagine if I give it my all. All I know is that one summer I want to enjoy myself by wearing a wifebeater down the street and not be so damn self concious, and thats where swagger kicks in, Becasue you can have people like Ce-Lo walking around with out a shirt on not giving a fuck and standing tall. Thats how I want to be, but I also want to be that dude when you see me you talk a second look and be like, Damn he fine! lol.
So after my past week of sickness, and going to the doctor I have been thinking about my health, Getting better and taking care of myself, Im trying to make a plan and I just want to put it out there in the universe. It will probally save me alot of money to as I am tracking how much money I spend (as I started doing listening to Outkast's Big Boi say "It aint about how much money you make its about what you spend")
Therefore I have been considering doing that Master Cleanse to start me off on a new start cleansing myself out and starting a new. Watching what I eat, steering away from too much cheeses, fried and processed foods and then eventually leading into more exercize to help sculpt my body to how I desire it to be.
Yesterday I had a good day as I went to Uptown Juice Bar in Harlem and got their 6$ Lunch special of 3 items I picked Curry Soy, Macarioni and Veggie Cheeese, and Collard Greens with a Large Carrot Juice and then for dinner I had a Chicken Salad from our local hookup in Greenwich Village. the only pitfall of my day was the Red Velvet Cupcake with Cream Cheese Icing, but I washed it down with OJ so good food conquered my day.
Today has started off to be a good day, I had bought OJ and Bannanas for the house at my local bodega and I went to my local dominican restraunt La Nueva Estrella and had Stewed Chicken with Rice and Beans and a Ginger Ale, I then walked to Garden Farms Produce to check out the veggies but got some small chinese candy to get me through the day... But I intend to finish it of with a victorious Good Food win. we will see.
All I know is that I want to feel good about myself and most confident when I look at myself in the mirror. Hey I like looking good but its time for me to go all the way and with determinination I intend on getting there.
