Mr. B, an advocate for environmental practices, lets us know why its “Greener On The Other Side.” B gives us a taste of what to expect from his upcoming album with this informative and swagger-filled track “Greener,” produced by E1/G.O.O.D. music. Listen closely to the words Kids. Lots of coded messages and metaphors. But at the end of the day the real message to keep at the forefront of your mind set is that GREEN IS THE NEW COOL. GreenJAR will be keeping you updated on the progress for “Greener”‘s video and all of Fonz’ green endeavors to come. For...
Recording label Island Def Jam is launching a GREEN INITIATIVE as a part of it’s new Corporate Social Responsibility Program. The aim of Island Def Jam’s green initiative is to trailblaze environmentally-responsible initiatives within the recording sphere. A first for any record label! To give you the skinny on what the initiative will entail…basically the program will start in the label’s private realm, as IDJ’s offices (both CA and NY) will enact a multitude of progressive initiatives (some continued from previous years) with it’s employees. Pervasive tactics will include printer cartridge, paper and battery recycling, the exclusive use of recyclable pantry supplies,...
“I WANT TO LEAD BY EXAMPLE. I NEVER REALLY RECYCLED BEFORE, BUT I PLAN TO DO IT NOW. I’M WORKING ON GETTING SOLAR PANELS ON MY HOUSE IN GEORGIA, AND I JUST BOUGHT A TAHOE HYBRID“ -Ludacris, The Source Magazine Issue #231 Inspiration for this news post: Go Green with LUDACRIS. If you don’t already have a recycling system going on at home or at work don’t expect anyone to wait around for anyone else to start one. You be the change. Initiate a program at home by keeping separate trash bags or bins for plastics, trash, and paper items. Get...
Like me and at home up in the crib tryin to think of how to give back to Mother Earth??? Well for all you sneakerheads that have one too many pairs of busted kicks in the closet..NIKE has a solution. Yes, it’s time to give. If Earth Day won’t get you motivated then what will? I’m talking about those sneakers that are worn one too many times for Flight Club to take off your hands and just plain too insultingly smelly to even try to sell off ebay or give to the dude that lives on your doorstep. We all...
From teendiariesonline.com “We already knew Scott Mescudi p/k/a/ KiD CuDi was an advocate of all things green. But how far he’s come. Once referred to as tree huggers, granola types, and hippies, the light cast on environmental advocates today is a much “cooler” hue. Caring about the state of our environment is no longer a leftist concern. It is a movement rapidly coming full circle, embraced by all sides and all people of varying backgrounds. KiD CuDi, a true tastemaker and genre breaker in the music industry, is proving to us yet again that he revolutionizes just about anything he...

* From Inhabitat “To cope with the growing need for green urban space, San Francisco-based designer Joanna Borek-Clement has envisioned these eye-popping Sky-Terra skyscrapers – not just a single building, but a network of interconnected towers that are inspired by the shape of neuron cells. This skyscraper superstructure provides a new city layer – one covered in public parks,amphitheaters, fields, and public pools and bathhouses.” Expand your imaginations people. You can create what ever you envision. This is just one medium in which to do so. A dope one at that!...
