The Director of "ATL", Chris Robinson Gives Back to His Hood
3 Comments » March 29, 2006
One of my best friends who was also my cousin just passed away about 5 months ago now and he actually has a very small part in this movie. He plays the part of the guy that’s getting his gold teeth fitted.
He was one dude that always asked me "What are you waiting for? Lets just do it". And he’s right.
So I take the lead in my life by making sure that my loved ones know I love them, by going to my favorite spot, about giving back to people, making sure other cats know that you’re reaching out to them. Living. And I think that’s the way you take charge. Don’t just sit back and think about it, or expect somebody else to help you do it. Just do it.
Take the Lead in your life - you only have one to live. You better take your lead.
