Say it ain’t so Joe!


Sadly this Cheerful couple is divorcing.

Well Emzy is divorcing Kim Mathers for a 2nd time, after only lasting 3 months. I really feel sad for Eminem, poor guy probably has no groupies throwing themselves at him, they are probably really turned off from sleeping pill addicts.

After you read what Immortal Technique says about Stop Snitching, a t-shirt should hardly be a concern for you.


I wonder if he has trouble reading his tattoos?

This Bubba Sparxxx interview has the best picture ever of a rapper pushing a trash receptacle. I kid you not.

Busta Rhymes has a new chain:

so icey.

Speaking of whom, If you need a laugh peep this video. His confrontation with the cops is my highlight. And I guess when you have an album coming out soon, you can’t help but stay in the news, even when you are providing citizen of the year-worthy beatdowns to former Sauce co-honcho Dave Mays. Damn I’m on a role, another Busta link I never got around to posting.. an interview with power106 in LA, where he talks about a lot of funny shit but the highlight is talking about giving Nicole Ritchie a “lil somethin”.

If you’ve been reading this shit long enough, you know that I’m a fan of new t-shirt oppertunities when they come up. Thanks to Black Rob for robbing a hotel room, and stealing a TV…no joke. (Cmon Diddy probably throws away plasmas on a daily basis). Anyway a Free Black Rob t-shirt will be good for 7 years.


On some serious shit, if you consider yourself a hip-hop head read this Rakim interview. Some interesting shit including his whole Aftermath stint. Part 1. Part 2.

while speaking on old-school stuff.. KRS-1 & Marley Marl squash their beef.. about 20 year later & are working on an album, must be a record for rapper reconciliation length.


The way me and my homeboys sit. It so comfy! *NH*

In some non-hip hop news, Females of the world listen to Sharon Stone,

“If you’re in a situation where you cannot get out of sex, offer a blow job. I’m not embarrassed to tell them.”

who instantly shoots up in my female actor rankings, she is the Julio Franco of A list actresses.

Ugh.. first there was Tony Parker, then it was the U football team, now fucking TO is rapping. I’m so disgusted, that there will be no link to his site or a clever picture & caption. UGH.

This place:

is worth heart disease or mad cow or whatever. This WaPo write-up makes me salivate like Pavlov’s dog.

NEVER DRINK THIS BEVERAGE, SHAMELESS RIP-OFF OF VITAMIN WATER AND TASTES LIKE URINE, NO JOKE.

Gully Link throwdown..

As your homie is chillin on spring break, even though its nearing the end, I thought I’d bless you with some random ass links….

Here in the dc metro area there is no more gully dealership then Eastern’s Automotive Group who enlists the likes of Camrelo Anthony (dosen’t support snitching), Lavar Arrington (dosen’t support Redskins management), Fred Smoot (supports 2-sided dildos on boat parties), Clinton Portis (supports Costume makers across the world) Brenda Haywood ( supports snitchin is a snitch) and some others for their tv spots… anyway the whole Automotive Group seems like some shady ass biz that is backed by Cocaine or maybe straight up mafia. Regardless these TV spots are so beautiful that it makes you overlook anything and everything. Check out the whole stash here. For the visually impared atleast throw the theme song on the ipod.

Why Gilbert Arenas is one of my favorite NBA players, behind Ron-Ron of course.

Lil Jon at an Atlanta Thrashers hockey game!! He’d have them sipping Crunk Juice out of the Stanley Cup, that alone = Lil Jon > Gary Bettman but he dosen’t think the Trashers can rap!?!? :(.

If you liked the Lazy Sunday thing from SNL wait till you see how gangsta Natalie Portman is.

Wait a sec did I just hear the CBS announcer compare a Georgetown player to Ludacris? nice.

Sorry Ms. Jackson, I’m a Cartoon

So how many of you have heard about this new Andre 3000 Cartoon? Judging from his character that shit looks to be a trippy piece of work. Then again that won’t be too out of place at the Cartoon Network. I mean have you ever sat down and watched their shit? I saw this one cartoon where a motherfuckin’ boomerang made this badly-drawn orphan kid start stripping, and it wasn’t even adult swim! Funniest thing is that Andre is leaving the industry (Calm down, he’ll still do another Outkast album) for Cartoons. Hell, maybe he can be the next Ice Cube……..only for cartoons. But I swear to god! The minute I see him on Teen Nick he is as good as buried for me.

More interviews coming soon.

Building Blocks: Isaac Hayes

Many of you may know him as the Chef from South Park but his musical genius extends far past his Chocolate Salty Balls. This man is one of the best sampled men in all of hip-hop. To name all the classic songs which sample him would create a list that could consume the page (in fact it consumes this page) instead I’ll name my favorite:

Walk on By. Listen to this song!!! I really never even realized how much hip-hop history could be covered in one song until I heard this shit. Biggie sampled this, Wu-Tang sampled this, Alicia Keys, Cypress Hill, Pete Rock, and the list continues. Most importantly though its a great song all on its own.

Some of my favorite songs to sample this:
-Notorious B.I.G.: Warning (Classic shit from the best rapper of all time)
-Wu-Tang Clan ft. Isaac Hayes: I can’t go to sleep (That song from The W that made you a little unhappy to be alive.)
-Compton’s Most Wanted: Hood Took Me Under (Classic GTA Soundtrack jointage)

Don’t just listen to music, analyze that shit!!!

Nite.

Let’s say hello again to E-40


E-40 Mean Grillin’

The slang guru from the west coast E-40 has a new album coming out march 14th. He just dropped a video which I really dig, it features some nice up-side down shots ala Missy’s video with Ciara. It also has gully dancers that dance on the hood of moving vehicles, which I should start doing ASAP. A tribute to Mac Dre at the end is a nice touch. The most suprising thing about this for me is Lil Jon did the beat but it dosen’t sound like something from his catalog as its lacking his signature whistles, probably his most original and best beat I’ve heard in a while.. well he kinda did go AWOL in 2005 (which was hard on me, I couldn’t drink my ‘Crunk Juice’ without tearing up). You can peep the video here or the making of the video here.

Killa Cam=Protector of Children (*no homo*)


With “Killa Season” coming out in April (which probably means November ’09), the CEO of Diplomat Records (he signed himself, bitch) has yet another big project on his hands…a documentary on pedofilia. Let me say that again…CAM’RON not Stone Phillips or Barbara Walters or even Geraldo…is doing a documentary on pedofilia.

**come to think of it, Geraldo kinda looks like a pedofile but that’s neither here nor there.

  • Here’s what he says in the VH1 article…
  • “These people drive 200, 300 miles just to meet a 13- or 14-year-old. It ranges
    from teachers to rabbis to construction workers. It’s just disgusting.

    “We set up a similar situation where we are videotaping people thinking they’re
    gonna meet little kids,” he continued. “When they get there, it’s gonna be me and
    [my manger] Big Joe like, ‘What the hell are you doing, you damn pervert? What the
    f— is wrong with you, coming to meet a 13-year-old boy?’ We’re gonna talk to
    them and not let them leave until we find out what’s wrong with them.”

    …but before you think Cam’ron is gonna lose his rapper mentality and start fighting crime, the article states that there will be absolutley NO police involvement. Cuz we all know that “snitches get stitches!”

    EDIT/UPDATES:
    some other links I thought I should share, and some more developments. Dilla passed away from complications that led to Lupus.

    *?Uestlove has left a very nice entry on his myspace blog about his favorite Dilla memories.

    *Myspace as a whole has been swamped with people paying their respects, as well has the okayplayer forums.
    Here the ones I’ve come across
    Dilla’s Myspace
    Roc-C from Stonesthrow, who has a video that features Dilla (and the track was also produced by him), but even better yet he already has recorded a dedication to Jay Dee, a very worthy listen.
    T3 of Slum Village Myspace
    Elzhi of Slum Village Myspace
    Slum Village Myspace

    one of my favorite artists motor-city on deviantart who has done a lot of major work for shows like Curb, Def Poetry, The Wire is also a major fan of Jay Dee.. here are my favorite works..
    A Dilla Tribute
    An amazing piece he just modified with a personal tribute
    Another great work of Dilla diggin through vinyl records
    a ‘remix’ of the above work

    Why Ghostface is the man *nhjic*


    It’s a wrap…this is the cover of the year

    Evidence A: After seeing this clip of him having so much crazy stage energy, I want to see him live more then I want to piss after drinking a gallon of cranberry juice.

    Evidence B: Rocking a Sherlock Holmes (if you don’t know who that is run to the library kid.) outfit. Pure genius.

    Evidence C: Probably the most gully/hood approved doll ever.

    That’s all, thought you ought to know. Can’t wait for that Fish Scale album, the single with Ne-Yo is dope.

    out.

    Just Like The Good Old Days

    Have you ever feel a movie is pointless, boring, insulting, and deserves nothing more than to be pulled from the theater? If so the solution to your problem is to shoot someone who was at the movie with you. Follow Me.
    Apparently these three dudes got in a scuffle with this other guy at a Loews movie theater in PA and then shot the sorry bastard. The action taken by the movie theater: Remove the film they were watching. The film was (as you prob guessed from the pic) Get Rich or Die Tryin’. All this tells me is that the bitches at Loews corporate might want to consider a raise to the $6 an hour pay for new employees. I used to work at one of them shits and I swear on the good lord jesus that if some punk came in there bustin shots I would use the customers as human shields. Employees there are so unhappy that they might be holdin a burner too. When I worked there half my co-workers were former crack dealers from Lincoln Park (like a project in MoCo) and they all had a history with the law. After all, you don’t work for $6 an hour for the hope of a 10 cent raise in 6 months.

    Moral of the rant, next time you get pissed off in a movie be it Elizabethtown, Pride and Prejudice, or anything. Just shoot one of your fellow viewers and your movie theater will be safe from the menace.

    Damn, Its good to be back……….
