Americas number one breakfast joint is moving to a first name basis, that is right Dunkin’ Donut’s will officially be dropping the Donuts in their name starting this January.
The company will be focusing on becoming more of a “drink based” franchise, which they have been aiming for since 2013, and in many ways have succeeded at. According to New York Times, beverage sales for the company has increased from 50% to 68%, which will hopefully increase after the many changes that are underway.
For everyone who loves a good Dunkin’ run like I do, comment down below if you are feeling this new modernization wave America’s number one doughnut shop will be partaking in.
Bill Cosby is facing sentencing today after three counts of sexual assault conviction back in April, 2014.
The 81 year old emerged from a black SUV wearing a flower-print tie and dark suit and ambled to the Montgomery County courthouse using his cane and with the help of his publicist Andrew Wyatt.
The hearing at the Montgomery County Courthouse in Norristown is expected to begin with testimony about whether he should be classified as a sexually predator. Cosby was convicted of three counts of sexual assault after drugging and sexually assaulting Andrea Constand in 2004.
Constand, the former head of women’s basketball operations at Temple University, is just one of the 60 women who have accused Cosby of sexual harassment.
Constand tweeted a Bible verse hours before the hearing was set to begin: “Be wrathful, but do not sin; do not let the sun set while you are still angry; do not give the Devil an opportunity.” She wrote on Twitter.
His trial is being heralded as the first major celebrity trial of the #MeToo era. As a result, there’s massive public attention being paid to the outcome with those coming out against Cosby not sure if the court will give him a pass in terms of punishment given his fame.
“I really think it’s important that he spend some time behind bars,” said Lise-Lotte Lublin, who said Cosby assaulted her when she was 23 in 1989. The then-model said Cosby prodded her to take two drinks to relax. “At some point, he should acknowledge what he’s done, and do the time for the crime.”
Its crazy to think someone so beloved by so many is now being looked at as disgusting. It’s just unimaginable to think that Cosby, the one who was on your television screens growing up is being depicted in such a different light. Just goes to show you a person like Bill, even though you think he’s innocent and it never crossed your mind that he would do such a thing, you just never know.
Tinashe recently got her FIRST royalty check from her new album Joyride, and the outcome is even WORSE than we imagined. The singer, dancer, actress, and model’s album released last week, and it is flopping TERRIBLY. Tinashe has been trying to take off lately, but that’s not going to happen if she’s selling less than 100 physical copies. Reviews for the album are NOT good, and when she got her first check from it things looked even more BAD. Let’s just hope that she can still make up for it in streams! She better hit up bae, Philadelphia 76ers player Ben Simmons and let that boy know he need to go buy some copies to boost them sales up!

Kanye West, the ultimate philosopher has always been open to sharing his views on the world. Throughout his career, he has been enlightened to see outside the box. His music displays this because he is not afraid to go into other genres and mashup styles- making him one of the greatest rappers of all time. Some say that his views about the world are too much and it has given him the reputation of being crazy.
As Kanye West raps in his song, “Feedback” on his Life Of Pablo release,
“Name one genius that ain’t crazy”
He might be referring to this interview on Ellen:
As an open-minded person and a creative one, it would make sense to write a book.
Here are the official statements he put out about his up and coming book:
oh by the way this is my book that I'm writing in real time. No publisher or publicist will tell me what to put where or how many pages to write. This is not a financial opportunity this is an innate need to be expressive.
I will work on this "book" when I feel it. When We sit still in the mornings We get hit with so many ideas and so many things We want to express. When I read this tweet to myself I didn't like how much I used the word I so I changed the I's to We's.
Here are some of the Tweets we might suspect will be in his book:
when you first wake up don't hop right on the phone or the internet or even speak to anyone for even up to an hour if possible. Just be still and enjoy your own imagination. It's better than any movie.
Be here now. Be in the moment. The now is the greatest moment of our lives and it just keeps getting better. The bad parts the boring parts the parts with high anxiety. Embrace every moment for its greatness. This is life. This is the greatest movie we will ever see.
There's love stories. Pain happiness. It's 3 dementional. There's taste touch sound. It's the most entertaining for of entertainment. Just being. We believe time is a man made construct. Actually time and money are both man made currency. Because you can spend them both.

I am extremely excited for Kanye’s book. I think he is a creative genius and someone who is in touch with himself. He has great insight and views on life. You can say what you want about Kanye West but he is certainly someone who has surpassed this mortal plane. Even if you think he is crazy, what he says is powerful and insightful. He might not be the next Aristotle but he is sure to make an impact with his vast audience.
They started off strong and I was really excited about this new ALT rock station. I thought it was great to have a station that played my favorite genre of music. I was expecting them to play more relevant alt-rock since that is the point but a few months later it seems like they are moving away from their original goal.
Overall 92.3 created an alt-rock station to play alt-rock but they seem to be moving away from this sound to put songs that are primary indie pop or alt-rock songs that have a pop influence. It seems like they are not doing too great and want to appeal to the masses so that the majority will still listen, but that isn’t the point of an alt-rock station. I think there has to be another alt-rock station to compete that actually stays true to their original message. It is also the first few months of their release so I hope they fix the kinks to be a great collective station.
