Humble Harvardite: Aoki Lee Simmons Credits Mom Kimora For Teaching Her An Extra Hard Lesson On Humility

Source: Rob Rich/ WENN / WENN Aoki Lee Simmons Admits She Let Harvard Acceptance Get To Her Head Just a few weeks ago we were congratulating Aoki Lee Simmons for being admitted to Harvard, but it appears that she allowed her new Ivy League status to go to her head. Earlier this week Aoki posted an essay on humility, revealing her mother had to take her down a notch because her big brains were giving her a HUGE head…. View this post on Instagram A short essay on humility, for someone trying their best to have some #spreadkindness (make sure you swipe cause if you don’t the essay makes no sense ) Love yourself, admit your mistakes, and grow like the awesome tree you are! #reflect #foodforthought A post shared by Aoki Lee Simmons (@aokileesimmons) on Apr 30, 2019 at 9:37pm PDT “I was more Harvard than John Harvard himself,” Aoki recalls, “and I was excited out of my mind, I was dabbing, I was whipping, I was Milly rocking, I was singing the fresh prince theme song….. Until my mom took me down a peg with lecture on humility, being a braggart and attracting the evil eye. My reaction was horrendous to ay the least, I pouted, I teared up, I accused her of being jealous, I accused her of not understanding how the college process works (hint: she totally did since she supported me and my sister through it and went to a fantastic college herself). I went off to my room to rage about how my mom ruins everything and kills my vibes and all those other teen complaints. I called my Dad to complain about how unfair my mom was being, and he told me he’d been wanting to say what she said for months. Which shocked me because I usually count on my Dad to be on my side, so hearing that confirmed the worst, my mom might be right. So then I started crying, really really hard.” Sounds a wee bit spoiled brattish — but at least she’s admitting she was wrong. We also loved that Aoki opened up about being disappointed about being deferred at Yale. We think it’s so great that Aoki realized the error of her ways AND that her mother kept it real with her. There are far too many insufferable little privileged princesses running around Beverly Hills whose mothers encourage that behavior. It’s a great picture of the kind of mom Kimora is riiiight?! When is the last time you needed a friend or family member to help you stay grounded?

Danny Brown’s New Album Is Executive Produced By Q-Tip?

While collaborative projects did not always come together in past eras they are easy to finesse in the digital age. One that most did not see coming is Danny Brown and Q-Tip . Complex did some digging and came up with a news piece treasure for fans of the Detroit Rapper. Dan recently shared a sneak peak look at his upcoming Highsnobiety story . While his post did not show the cover photo in question it did offer a vital piece of his upcoming project via a block quote. “After a trilogy of records that rank among the decade’s most critically acclaimed Rap releases, Danny Brown has both nothing and everything to prove. Returning to the public eye with a Viceland show and fifth studio album, the Q-Tip produced  U Know What I’m Saying? , he is presenting a new version of himself: Danny Brown, serious craftsman and burgeoning elder statesman of Rap”. View this post on Instagram uknowhatimsayin? A post shared by Danny Brown (@xdannyxbrownx) on Apr 30, 2019 at 1:34am PDT Yes you read that right. The face of A Tribe Called Quest is overseeing a Danny Brown project. He detailed the need for a veteran with his credentials to guide him through what maybe his most important work of his career. “If I didn’t get help, with somebody to find a direction, I didn’t know what the f*** to do at that time,” he explained. “I knew I couldn’t make an album like [ Atrocity Exhibition ] again. This is the easiest one because you got someone like him you can put your trust into.” The story points out that ATCQ’s music has been in his DNA since being young as that was his father’s favorite group. Additionally The Abstract was the one who urged A-Trak to sign Brown to his Fool’s Gold label. U Know What I’m Saying?  slated to be released later this year. El-P of Company Flow and Run The Jewels fame is the only guest to be confirmed as of yet. Photo: Getty
