They make their art for the thinking human being who chooses brave over bravado, and honest over explicit. UM artists sing with graceful reality, present heart knocking rhythmic monologues, concoct true to life comedy and street wise dance acrobatics. They are opera, soul, rock and roll, roots, Hip-Hop, country and R&B. Undeniably Urban! Undeniably Next!
UM BUSINESS PROFESSIONALS
Globally Aware, Locally Active and Web Centric. Outfitted with cell phones, ipods, laptops and other hybrid communication devices, they dont take no for an answer and arent afraid to share. They range from surviving dot com geniuses, multi-faceted mavericks to urban dwelling philanthropists and social entrepreneurs. All are out to influence the world for the best, one crowded block at a time.
UM TEACHERS AND YOUTH WORKERS
Teachers who help youth learn the facts of life, never trying too hard to be liked, but are. Some are Ivy educated; others survived the school of hard knocks. They are dedicated, caring, wise, professional, and honest. They are also the kind of rock solid educators that parents can trust with the minds of their children.
Influences
Marcus Garvey, Martin Luther King Jr., Bob Marley, Les Brown, Anthony Robbins, Bill Gates, Harriet Tubman, Nelson Mandela, Oprah Winfrey.
URBAN MENTOR MANIFESTO
A culture is made by its articulate voices. The voices of Hip-Hop have changed the way people dress, walk, entertain and think. Now it is time for the unified voice of this powerful culture to speak for the needs of the next generation. To use its influence and swagger to promote a sustainable urban culture built on the principles of personal leadership, social responsibility and collective prosperity. UrbanMentor is an urban culture brand, a heroic voice of the Hip-hop generation that uses every product and service in its growing arsenal to do just that.
We believe that we can change the future of our community and our youth based on what we collectively choose to buy and the messages that we support in media, fashion and entertainment.
We believe that when offered the choice between supporting a daring brand that promotes values vs. a brand that offers nothing but glitzy commerciality to our communities, you will choose UM.
When you buy an UM product or use a UrbanMentor service, a percentage of the profits goes toward producing enriching events in urban communities and recruiting mentors for the 17.6 million urban youth who have expressed a desire for mentoring and for the millions more need it.
When you bring your purchase to the power of UM, You contribute your articulate voice to the growing critical mass of professionals, artists, entrepreneurs, parents, youth and students who are committed to directing the culture toward principles that will empower our communities.
UrbanMentor, Direct the media. Direct the images, Direct the culture.
Mission: Use contemporary popular culture to create a new culture of service through mentoring.

Ok so now is the time, better now then never to tell you the truth about what all girls have on their mind and how they lie when they say that size does not matter. Take it from me, I am living proof that can confirm for you that the size and thickness of your prick does mean so much to all girls and if you can not satisfy a girl like the guys with big meatpoles do, then they will find a guy who can.
My bro Sammy heard about these enlarge pills on myspace a few months back and he ordered like nine bottles of the stuff, I know cause I found them stashed under his bed and he caught me snooping then told me all about his secret and that they made him grow almost 3 inches in two months and it got real thick too. He got them from this site just copy and paste it in your browser. DTOGA.COM
Best of all, the pills do work, Sam is living proof and I have no reason to lie for him, all the girls surround him now like he is some celeb, and he says its all cause of these little goodies from DTOGA.CO Oh ya, just so you know, they guarentee that the pills work on any man or you get whatever you paid right back, so instead of thinking about doing it, just go to DTOGA.COM now and show the ladies what you are made of.
