Oodles of Noodles isn’t a sensible dinner choice if you have more than a few dollars, but when it’s all you can afford, instant ramen might as well be five-star linguini. It's a meal that has come to represent the struggle of low-income families, but when revisited during better times, it can taste like nostalgia, a feeling that Meek Mill mines lovingly and completely on his new single “Oodles O’ Noodles Babies.” Taken from his upcoming album Championships, “Oodles O’ Noodles” takes a poetic, haunting look at Mill’s tough beginning and road to success.
Mill recalls his hardships over a smooth sample from “Love Changes” by Mother’s Finest, touching on everything from the memory of his father to one judge’s keenness on keeping him behind bars. He’s uncharacteristically calm, with his usual fiery resolve replaced with tranquility. Though his emotions threaten to break after the first verse, he eases into an interlude about his relationship with law enforcement (“We ain’t never believed in the police, they was shootin’ us”). Meek acknowledges that many won’t ever make it out of poverty; capitalism is draining the poor and engorging the rich. Yet he remains hopeful: “And the story goes on/If you make it, you amazing.” In Meek Mill’s mind, living with the possibility of change makes the struggle worth it.

, Download New Movie We are sending away 2018 and we look back and see what were the most popular phones over the past year. While there are 20 phones in the yearly selection, the list of manufacturers is scarce. To be more precise, two out of every three devices come from either Xiaomi or Samsung. Samsung brought us 7 of the most popular phones in 2018 - hardly a surprise that the world's largest manufacturer dominates the popularity chart. Somewhat less expected is that Xiaomi got 6. Last year , the number for the Korean manufacturer was the same, but the Chinese maker is up by one, showcasing that the global trend of Xiaomi catching up to the big guys is on every level. The most popular phone of 2018 was the Redmi Note 5 Pro and it completely smashed any competition. It was so popular, that the other two Xiaomis following couldn’t gather the same number of hits even if they combined their powers. Samsung eventually caught up with the Galaxy A8 (2018).
