A couple of things to note:
- These are very random
- They are a mix of inference, prophecy, facts, and hunches.
- We’re just trying to have fun out here. I welcome other less serious revelations.
Kanye West will own 2016
After the birth of his second child, Kanye is grounded and ready to give the world some fire. He was supposed to have a CD in 2015 but that didn’t work out…. Too busy making clothes I guess. He’s going to get back to the music with a vengeance in 2016 and I’m here for it. I see a game changing album along with great features from Kanye in 2016. He will also establish the ground game for his 2020 presidential campaign.
The Irrational shall inherit the Earth (Just the US)
I watch politics like my brother watches NBA Basketball. I’m not watching to see who wins but the process by which they beat their opponent. The Presidential elections have been more entertaining than season 3 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. (I personally think that was the best season but I digress) I thought I had a handle on this election but current events created a new set of variables that have the potential to change the outcome of the primary and general election. The electorate have a dangerous level of fear that I haven’t seen since the early cold war. As a result, you can count on citizens to make irrational decisions on who would be best to deal with their fears. Pre San Bernadino, I thought this would be an easy Democratic victory, but now, Republicans are in their element and I see a Republican pathway to the white house.
3D printing will go Mainstream
Based on Product lifecycle (if you believe in that stuff) 3D printing will move from Early Adopters to the early majority. I see a lot of potential especially as the technology goes down in cost.
If you’re African and interested in Business, learn Mandarin next year
On a serious note…. Zimbabwe adopts the Yuan as legal tender and China commits 600 billion to development around Africa? No matter what the west says, China is in Africa to stay. I got to the Enugu Airport in Nigeria, only to see a new terminal being built by Chinese contractors. China may have been around but next year will be something to watch with so much capital, people and other recourses flowing into Africa.
Reemergence of Boy Bands
I just have a gut feeling on this one, Boy Bands are coming back.
I’ll be adding more as I think of them but that’s all for now…. What are some of your new years revelations/ prophecies?
