DAVID GUETTA


David Guetta. What can you say about this ubiquitous DJ that hasn’t already been said? His popularity is through the roof. When you measure him with a Geiger meter, his radiation by hateration levels are off the charts. He just might be the one the prophecies foretold.
Recently, the French savant received his 50 millionth Facebook like, and to celebrate, he released this 12-minute video in honor of his fans, and modern apartheid.
Guetta went to the Dead Sea in Israel to play a show, and the results were not only legendary, but epic as well!

THIS IS IT FOR YOU...!! :)

EARLY LIFE :

Marshall Bruce Mathers III was born in Missouri, USA. Son of a 15-year-old mother at the time of his birth and a father who left six month later never to return, Marshall spent his early childhood being shoved back and forth from Kansas City and Detroit. He settled on the Eastside of Detroit when he was 12. Switching schools every two to three months made it difficult to make friends, graduate and to stay out of trouble. Being a rap fan for most of his life, Marshall began rapping at the early age of 4. Rhyming words together, battling schoolmates in the lunchroom brought joy to what was otherwise a painful existence.


At the age of 14, he began to get very serious about his rapping but it wasn't until he was 17 that he actually made a name for himself, becoming M& M, which he would later respell as "Eminem". Being rejected by most fellow rappers because of his race, Marshall grew an anger that flows through his music to this day. After failing the 9th grade for three times in a row, he quit school, but remarks that he doesn't consider himself stupid and doesn't advise that people should follow his example. He says that it just wasn't for him. Forcing himself on radio shows, freestyle battles, Marshall threw himself head first into the rap game, where he was swallowed up most of the time.



PROFESSIONAL LIFE :


His very first album was titled "Infinite" and, while the album sold less than a thousand copies, it was the gearing up stages for the rapper who became a millionaire. It was then that his daughter, Hailie Jade Scott, was born on December 25th of 1995 with long time girlfriend Kim Scott. Having nothing to lose at all, flat broke and not knowing where he would be living the next week, Marshall set out to rant about life in general, the set quickly caught the ear of hip-hop's difficult-to-please underground. What came out of this was the Slim Shady EP, the early work for the later Dr. Dre revised Slim Shady LP. Down to nearly his last dime, he went into the 1997 Rap Olympics in Los Angeles, basically hoping to win the $1,500 cash price which he badly needed. After battling for an hour and throwing back every race diss thrown at him, Marshall made it to second place losing in a slip up. Furious that he had lost, Marshall didn't even notice that he had been spotted. In the crowd were a few producers from Interscope, and they were handed a copy of the "Infinite" tape by way of a demo. Dr. Dre got to hear it and eventually tracked him down. The two instantly hit it off, recording four songs in the their first six hours of working - three which made it to his first LP. After the album was finished, Dr. Dre asked Marshall to come work with him on his new album. He helped produce several tracks and was on the best songs of the album.


Now officially making it, Marshall and Dre set to make his second LP. The album became the Marshall Mathers LP and won 3 Grammies and was the first rap album ever to be nominated "Album of the Year", selling more than 8 million records in the United States alone. He also stunned critics when he shot down all homophobic remarks by performing "Stan" with Elton John. Currently working on his third LP, Em has made a movie, 8 Mile(2002), and has gone back and brought his friend with him; D-12. Though 2001 was a rough year for the rapper, being charged with weapon offenses, divorcing his wife, and almost going to prison, Marshall explains his life today in one word. "Claimer".


PERSONAL QUOTES :


I don't want them once they turn 18" - On Britney Spears & Christina Aguilera.
At this point, I'm like "Come up with something new. I hate the same old questions. But it seems like "white" magazines such as Spin and Rolling Stone focus on my "whiteness" more than Black magazines" --On his colour
Why is it so hard for people to believe that white people are poor?! I wouldn't say I lived in a ghetto, I'd say I lived in the 'hood. The same friends I had back then are the same people on tour with me now
There's a difference between realness and an act, and they're an act, and they know they're an act, and they even say they're an act, they even say they're cornballs, they admit it. --On ICP
My family has never been there for me. They expect things because we're blood. --On his family
"Some asshole kept throwing oranges and other fruit at me while I was onstage. Fucker had an arm like a major league pitcher..." --About one of his concerts.
Don't do drugs, don't have unprotected sex, don't be violent. Leave that to me.
I had too much NyQuil and Vivarin again. Lost my stomach all over the place.
Never take ecstasy, beer, baccardi, weed, pepto bismol, vivarin, tums, tagamet hb, xanax, and valium in the same day. It makes it difficult to sleep at night.
Sometimes I'm real cool, but sometimes I could be a real asshole. I think everyone is like that.
"I would never fucking put them in a rhyme. I don't even want them wondering if I was trying to diss them. I got a lot of love for them. I grew up on that shit. The other rappers, whatever." --On the Beastie Boys.
All my life I've been dealing with my race because of where I grew up [Detroit] and being in the rap game. I'm at a boiling point...Anybody who pulls the race card is getting it right back in their face.
I get offended when people say, `So, being a white rapper...and growing up white...after being born white...' It's all I ever hear!
You can't control who likes you. If I got Backstreet Boy fans what am I supposed to do? Turn them away? Whoever likes my stuff, likes my stuff but just know Slim Shady is hip hop, I grew up on hip hop, it's the music I love and it's the music I respect. I respect the culture...that's me
"It doesn't exactly feel like a shock, but it's all new to me, and I'm taking it in as it comes." --On his rise to stardom.
A lot of my rhymes are just to get chuckles out of people. Anybody with half a brain is going to be able to tell when I'm joking and when I'm serious.
A bunch of girls, swinging from a nice chandelier, landing on top of me naked...while I lay in a pool of steaming hot water! --On his spring break fantasy
I try not to look at it that way. Being white. I don't wake up every day and look in the mirror, 'Oh. I'm white'.
My father? I never knew him. Never even seen a picture of him.
"Slim Shady is just the evil thoughts that come into my head. Things I shouldn't be thinking about. Not to be gimmicky, but people should be able to determine when I'm serious and when I'm fuckin around. That's why a lot of my songs are funny. I got a warped sense of humor I guess." --On his alter-ego, Slim Shady.
There was a while when I was feeling like, 'Damn, if I'd just been born black, I would not have to go through all this'.
"When I was 9 years old, my uncle put me on to the Breakin' soundtrack. The first rap song I ever heard was Ice-T, 'Reckless.' From L.L. to the Fat Boys, and all that shit, I was fascinated. When L.L. first came out with 'I'm Bad', I wanted to do it, to rhyme. Standing in front of the mirror, I wanted to be like L.L." --On his influences.
I'm not alone in feeling the way I feel. I believe that a lot of people can relate to my shit--whether white, black, it doesn't matter. Everybody has been through some shit, whether it's drastic or not so drastic. Everybody gets to the point of 'I don't give a fuck'.
It was an honor to hear the words out of Dre's mouth that he liked my shit. Growing up, I was one of the biggest fans of N.W.A, from putting on the sunglasses and looking in the mirror and lipsinking, to wanting to be Dr. Dre, to be Ice Cube. This is the biggest hip-hop producer ever.
I had nothing to lose, but something to gain. If I made an album for me and it was to my satisfaction, then I succeeded. If I didn't, then my producers were going to give up on the whole rap thing we were doing. I made some shit that I wanted to hear. The Slim Shady EP, I lashed out on everybody who talked shit about me.
I do say things that I think will shock people. But I don't do things to shock people. I'm not trying to be the next Tupac, but I don't know how long I'm going to be on this planet. So while I'm here, I might as well make the most of it.
Anybody with a sense of humour is going to put on my album and laugh from beginning to end.
Saving Private Ryan was probably the illest, sickest movie I've ever watched, and I didn't see anybody criticizing that one for violence.
I grew up listening to 2 Live Crew and N.W.A. and I never went out and shot nobody.
I don't like rap anyways, I'm just trying to get my porno career started.
We just kept moving back and forth because my mother never had a job. We kept getting kicked out of every house we were in. I believe six months was the longest we ever lived in a house.
I had this whole Slim Shady concept of being two different people, having two different sides of me. One of them I was trying to let go, and I looked at the mirror and smashed it. That was the whole intro of the Slim Shady EP. Slim Shady was coming to haunt me, was coming to haunt Eminem.
Whoever likes my stuff, likes my stuff. But just know Slim Shady is hip hop. I grew up on hip hop, it's the music I love and it's the music I respect. I respect the culture...that's me.
"If I said in one of my songs that my English teacher wanted to have sex with me in junior high, all I'm saying, is that I'm not gay, you know? People confuse the lyrics for me speaking my mind. I don't agree with that lifestyle, but if that lifestyle is for you, then it's your business." --On homosexuality.
I don't like to give the sob story: growing up in a single-parent home, never knew my father, my mother never worked, and when friends came over I'd hide the welfare cheese. Yo, I failed ninth grade three times, but I don't think it was necessarily 'cause I'm stupid. I didn't go to school. I couldn't deal.
(On if he let's his daughter listen to his music) Yeah, I do. Not all of it I play for her. Some songs, got a lot of cussing, especially the one she's on. So I make her a clean version. 'Cause I protect my Child! Not yours! Rest of the kids I don't care about - buy my album, go murder, rape, pillage, kill!"
(On his Oscar and why he didn't go to the show) "I'm thankful for it, I'm not ungrateful. I'm very grateful. I just don't choose to rub elbows with the whole Hollywood scene. It's not me. If there is just one award show you don't go to you gonna look ungrateful. Period. But me, I just don't like to go to places where I feel outta my element. And me sitting there with a bunch of movie stars and actors, I don't belong. I rap and do hip-hop, the music that I love. I'm about the music. The grammy's are about as far as I'm goin' go outside my element. It's still cool that I got it."
Infinite was me trying to figure out how I wanted my rap style to be, how I wanted to sound on the mic and present myself. It was a growing stage. I felt like Infinite was like a demo that just got pressed up.
I think my first album opened a lot of doors for me to push the freedom of speech to the limit.
I don't have to say anything to my fans about my music and try to explain it, because they get it, and that's why they are fans, do you know what I mean?
I remember once when I was 16 he came to my house, we were living on the east side of 8 mile, he came over with a brand new pair of shoes and he threw them at my feet and said 'Put those on', and I said 'why'? He said 'Because I'm tired of you wearing them dirty ass shoes'" His eulogy on the late Proof

It is originally an Arabic dish and was introduced to the Hyderabad State by the Arab diaspora during the rule of the Nizams (the former rulers of Hyderabad State). Local traditional spices helped in evolving a unique Hyderabadi haleem that became popular among the natives by the 19th-century.
Haleem

Hyderabadi haleem is regarded as an international delicacy. In Hyderabad, the dish is often consumed at celebratory events such as weddings. It is consumed especially during Iftaar, the evening meal following the day-long fast, observed by Muslims during the month of Ramadan.
In Hyderabad and neighbouring areas, the month of Ramadan is synonymous with Hyderabadi haleem. During the 2012 Ramadan season, INR1.2 billion worth of Hyderabadi haleem was sold in the city and an additional 25,000 people were employed in the preparation and sale of haleem. The connoisseur chefs are paid salaries of up to INR100000 (US$1,700) a month plus benefits, As of 2011, during Ramadan there were 6,000 eateries throughout the city that sold haleem (70% of which are temporary until Ramadan ends), and 28% of Hyderabadi haleem produced in the city was exported to 50 countries throughout the world.

NO. 4 : 


Bangles at Laad Bazaar:

Just off Charminar is Laad Bazaar, a bustling market housing more than 100 shops that sell stone studded lac bangles. This is where you will also see Hyderabad's tehzeeb or etiquette come alive. Shop keepers treat customers to cups of chai and anecdotes about the bangles, while maintaining their polite way of talking. 

Laad bazar

Bangles here have interesting names like bachche, which are the narrower ones from a family set. Sellers sometimes indulge in playful talk. We heard a shopkeeper ask an old lady, "Kitne bachche chahiye aapko?", which translates to, how many children do you want, to which she sportingly replied, "Dekhte hain, aap kitne de sakte hain!" (Let's see how many you can give.) 

Price: Rs.50 to Rs.2,000 for a set of six.


No. 3 : 


Golconda Fort: 



A sense of walking into the past is unmistakable at the Golconda Fort, regarded among the strongest forts of India. With its 87 bastions and 69 feet high gateways, it is said that the gates could even withstand elephants ramming into them. Its rich historical background is said to date back to the Yadava dynasty and the Kakatiyas of Warangal, but the fort really came to be with the Qutb Shahis from 1518 to 1687, after which it was conquered by Mughal emperor Aurangzeb. 

There are many wonders to experience here including the clap phenomenon- you clap at the entrance and it is heard at the highest point of the fort, a kilometre high! There are also said to have been secret passageways connecting the fort to other parts of the city. Listen to the story of the fort at the sound and light show at the fort everyday in the evenings, 6.30 pm onwards, narrated in Amitabh Bachchan's voice-an experience you won't forget soon.

No. 2 :


Charminar: 


The four centuries old Charminar has truly been the pride of Hyderabad ever since it was built by Mohammed Quli Qutb Shah in 1591. A hundred and forty nine steps lead you to the top and you can see the Golconda Fort from the first floor balcony. The beautiful stucco work in motifs of flowers and animals is unique. 

The Charkaman (a group of four entrance gateways) and the Guzar Houz (an octagonal fountain) were designed along with the Charminar. Along the four Heritage Walks conducted by AP Tourism, you will see Kali Kaman, Sehr-e-Batil ki Kaman, Machli Kaman and Charminar ki Kaman. You will also see Jama Masjid, Amir-e-Kabir street housing the devdis of the Paigahs (nobility of the Nizams) among other lesser known sites. 

Treat yourself to street delicacies like jalebis, dosas, naans and kebabs too. There's also much to see and buy around Charminar, from exquisite zardozi work, henna and fabric for salwar suits to kohl. Designers like Sabyasachi Mukherjee and Neeta Lulla shop for traditional gota here while in the city. Neighbouring Mehboob Chowk is a metal and mechanisation hub with antique stores in the vicinity.

No. 1 : 

Hyderabadi Biryani :

Hyderabadi biryani is savoured in all parts of India and forms an integral part of Indian cuisine. The Nizam's kitchen boasted of 149 kinds, which included biryani made from fishquailprawndeer and hare. A type of Hyderabadi biryani called "Kacchi Yeqni" biryani involves cooking the marinated meat and the rice together.
