30 Seconds to Mars X Kanye West
Heard this on nahright.com. This is a pretty interesting collab maybe it make Kanye work with more rock bands. I would like to hear a collab with him and Bloc Party, Kings of Leon, Three Days Grace, or Linkin Park. But a good song, with some great build up.

For the Love of Elevation: Derrick Rose X Greg Oden
I believe Derrick Rose said it best: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!. Derrick has hops and he can finish like a grown man.
Lupe, Wiz Khalifa, and XV
Ok first, Lupe dropped Enemy Of The State: A Love Story today. Probably one of the most anticipated release in a minute. Did it live up to the anticipation? Yes, though I will say that it was quite short, and I was hoping to hear a lot more. But at the same time you cannot be disappointed with Lupe because with him it is quantity over quality. Lupe would rather give you ten great songs, than give you seventy five good songs and seventy five bad songs. But anyways lets talk about Enemy Of The State: A Love Story for a minute. For about twenty and a half minutes Lupe goes in(about two minutes are the intro, his promotion for Lazers, and the HP skit). Every single track on the CD is quality, and it makes you want more. Lupe also does something to make him stand out by making the mixtape like an old school cassette mixtape. That is why it seems like it was a good idea for him to make it so short. The standout tracks(they are all great but these standout among the rest)on the mixtape are "Angels", "Thank You", "All The Way Turnt Up", "One", and "Yoga Flame". Lupe comes through with a crazy story filled with metaphors and word play galore on "Angels", with "Yoga Flame" and "All The Way Turnt Up" he just goes in, and how can you not love the Street Fighter reference. "Thank You" is a song where he does him, his flow is precise, and his word play is beautiful:
Angels
Thank You
Yoga Flame
Ok I have to admit when everybody else was talking about Wiz Khalifa, I was kind of like ehhh. Not really ready to jump on the bandwagon like everybody else. The only previous work of his I had really been interested in was the "Starstruck" freestyle. But I finally decided to download Burn After Rolling. I must say I am finally glad that I got into Wiz Khalifa. The songs that standout to me are:
Miles
B.A.R.
Great To Be There
All My Life
Lastly me and my homeboy Will were talking about Lupe and it lead to him introducing me to XV. He has a dope sound. Kind of in the mold of Lupe, Kanye, and some of the other new generation rappers. He also has a very old school feel to him. I just got his Everybody's Nobody mixtape and will be listening to it soon. A few of the songs that I heard were crazy:
Undeniable
Come Back Down
Gobstoppers ft. Wiz Khalifa
I know everybody is pretty already up on Lupe and Wiz Khalifa but hopefully you continue to enjoy their music. Lupe music is a pleasure for me to listen to because I have to do some deep though. And if you are new to XV hopefully you are going to enjoy his music as much a I did.
Angels
Thank You
Yoga Flame

SMH or LMAO????
Saw this on worldstarhip.com, and though it is funny as all get up, at the same time it is hella messed up. I was like dang he got punched like that for twenty dollars. I am sorry the funniest part was how he put his hands under his head when he finally came to. But I have seen this before though the other one was much much much more comical.
Never in a million years would I let Kimbo Slice tackle me for $100. That dude got pwned.
Ok for a minute I was being held hostage....

Nah Rights True Words About 50 cents
Quotes like these are exactly why I fox with nahright.com:
I honestly wasn’t even gonna say anything about these horrible numbers that BISD is expected to put up, and I know he spoke on it in that Flex interview, but this quote he gave Meka for BET is hilarity:
“Well, the reports from Hits Daily Double, I don’t actually know what to anticipate from the actual sales of this project,” 50 told BET. “It’s obvious, the project just came out a month earlier than what was actually anticipated.”
“The actual project is arguably my best work, to have the general public respond the way they’ve responded to it,” 50 continued. “I haven’t heard anything negative about my choices artistically, so if I was in the space where I absolutely needed finances from the actual sales of the record, it might mean something, but if it offers the material that I can go out and perform and make everyone enjoy themselves as much as I enjoyed myself making it, Ill be happy with it.”
What the!? Is “actual” the new “aggressive content”? Ninja, you actually didn’t sell any records and I believe that is actually referred to as an actual flop.
Be clear: I don’t give a fuck what Curtis sold. Some of my favorite rappers dropped albums this year that didn’t crack 100K, and I honestly think BISD is pretty decent, all things considered. And what the fuck does Curtis care, like he said, he’s rich anyway. It’s just hilarious to me to see somebody who has put so much stock in album sales and commercial performance rather than quality for so long, go quadruple styrofoam.
I might actually go back to calling him 50 Cent now.
Lmao, at the "quadruple styrofoam" quote. Well now Joe Buddens and 50 Cent have something in common beside Tahiry, they both have cds that only their labels, maybe ten of their homies, and their families purchase. I am guessing though with 50 cent his probably sold in the double digits still.

Mr. T X Video Games
Every video game ever made should go back and include Mr. T in it. From Pong to Mario to Street Fighter to Left for Dead to Final Fantasy to Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare to Madden. In some capacity Mr. T should have a role in every video. How is the Knight Elf Mohawk not the greatest video game character ever made?
All is Mr. T advertising a Taco joint in this commercial?

Only in Atlanta
Mr. Willy Terry
As I was going through facebook today I happened upon a very interesting story. My son William Long had made a post about the Package Man aka Mr Willy Terry, having a myspace page. This was something that I forgot about when it came to Atlanta. Wait I guess I should go back and introduce the people who may not know him very well to the Package Man. The first time I saw the Package Man I was riding home with my friend Tommy and his dad down Ponce De Leon. We got stuck in a bit of traffic and stopped right in front of this dude wearing bike shorts. Tommy was like there goes the Package Man. That when I noticed that sitting inside his biker was what looked like some oranges. I was like what the.....? Tommy was like yeah that dude usually just chill out here.
Then I started to see this dude more regularly, and I was puzzled by it. I wondered why he just stood there, was he waiting on somebody, was he just trying to show the goods off, did he have elephantiasis? There were a lot of questions running through my mind. One thing that I admit and anybody who goes past the package man has to admit is that it is kind of hard not to stare at him, just because of the courageousness that you are witnessing at the time. And always seems to do a very long lean forward when certain cars pass by.
I remember the first time I was with my mom and she saw the Package Man. It had to be one of the funniest things ever. She was talking about how disgusting it was and I was just laughing, and I could not stop laughing.
The Package Man is truly a Myth or a Legend in the city of Atlanta. It is one of those things that if you are from Atlanta or have at least been around the east side of Atlanta or down Ponce De Leon you know something about the Package Man. I am sure there are even a few tourist who to Atlanta to see the Package Man. Maybe they should make the corner that he stands on a historical site, He definitely deserves some sort of recognition.
Here is a docuementary that devles a little deeper into the man that is the Package Man:
Pt. 1
My story part 1
The Package Man | MySpace Video
Pt. 2
The sounds seems to not be working but you can watch the video on his myspace:
http://www.myspace.com/thepackageman
Pt.1 There are some crazy nicknames in it. D E A D.
Pt.2 is a classic, and reveals that the Package Man is actually a Jack Of All Trade. And he also reveals his favorite positions.
Also LMAO at him mentioning the fact that he integrated the city of Atlanta before Martin Luther King.
PS. Also I hear that he has been MIA since the summer. And can somebody tell me what is what with that dude Keith who works at CVS. Dead his interview and also his appearance. There are some great interviews in this one. J Dawg is quite funny as well.

Sex Therapy > Invented Sex
IMO, Sex Therapy goes harder than Invented Sex. I already posted the Sex Therapy, and I will not post the Invented Sex video because of moral standards, j/k, but I am not going to post it.
New and Fresh Out Of The Box
POW
BOOM
Ok, let me go ahead and say this I love sneakers. If I could spend all of my hard earned money on sneakers I would, and preferably Nike sneakers, but alas I cannot. So I will be getting sneakers far less than I was expecting these days, which is a good and bad thing for me, so whenever I get a new pair of sneakers I will post them to my blog.
I know it is kind of hard to tell exactly what shoes those are from the picture. They are the Nike Air Hoop Structures, a pair of shoes that I have been eying for quite some time. I was starting to think that if I was a in a dark club with a bunch of drunk people, who had a poor knowledge of sneakers they may mistake them as a pair of jays, maybe sevens to the very untrained eye. But that is not the look that I was going for there is only one pair of jays that I want this year, and that is the spiz'ikes. But anyways I am very proud of my purchase.

The comedic side of rap
Serius Jones vs Lil Duval
Serius Jones "Real Thoughts"
This dude is bringing the funny with these videos. The "Real Thoughts" one is much funnier than the first but both are quite comical. The gem is the girl talking about not wanting to have to do a train and then wanting somebody to text. Another gem was C Tha God talking about Jay and Beans. Found these @ http://nahright.com/news/

I just realized why I cannot support twilight.
So there is all this hype about the new Twilight saga movie that is coming out. Though I am somewhat interested I just cannot get into it. And last night I realized why. Racism.
This is Laurent:
He is the only brother so far in these movies. I do not have to read the books to know that there are not going to be too many brothers in it. And on top of that he is a bad guy, who tries to kill a white woman. Where did the Author get her inspiration OJ? Now all the other vampires look all cool and vampire like with their pale skin, but this dude looks like a vampire crackhead. What is up with that? And then I have seen the previews and do not even need to read the book to know that the Werewolves kill this dude.
Now I am a huge fan of Harry Potter, and yes while there could be more brothers there were still a handful. None of the brothers died in that series, and all of them made it to the last book in the series. Heck there even sistas in the Harry Potter movie.
Now I am hearing that he might not have even actually been Black in the books.
RACISM if I ever saw it. smh.

Chris Brown X Lupe Fiasco
X
The song is called "Girlfriend". I did not want to post it because it is only a snippet and none of it is Lupe. I am not sure what to think about it. There have been stranger collabs, and the only reason this one seems so strange is because of the point that Chris Browns careers is at. Hopefully Lupe comes through and delivers an excellent verse, but we will have to wait and see.

Rookie Of The Year Revisted
Brandon Jennings
Tyreke Evans
These two were not even mentioned in my original post of the rookie of the year. But man they have been going off. Jennings and Evans are one and two in scoring among rookies. And as point guards they have been leading their teams. And if the playoffs started tomorrow both rookies would have lead their teams into the playoffs. Jennings has been going off. I was one of the people who thought he was going to flop but he definitely is proving me wrong. I watched the game yesterday against the warriors where he dropped 27 in the third quarter. This dude was beasting pulling up on anybody and everybody. Unless Blake Griffin comes back with the vengeance these two are definitely the only ones fighting for rookie of the year. Let's see how long they can both keep this up.
There is a good crop of players among this years rookies, and I think the Rookie vs Sophomore game will be a truly exciting one.

Which washed up celeberity deserves a reality show?
In this era, a lot of people who were celebrities thirty years ago and are now the dudes that you would not be able to recognize if you saw them on the street unless you watched I Love The 70's 80's, 90's, or 2000's, are getting TV shows. But are they giving the right people TV shows. Yes and No. I mean if Flavor Flav got a show then there are a lot of people who need to be getting shows. So with this I will give a list of people I think that deserve TV shows, and may do this is installments.
Rick Astley
How does the man who lead the creation of the Rick Roll'd not get a show. There are so many things that could be done with this dude. Maybe figure out how he got that voice or you could do a show where goes around Rick Roll'ding people. Like just have people watching videos and then getting Rick Roll'd and he pops out of the back and starts singing Never Gonna Give You Up.
He Hate Me
Who remembers the XFL? Not too many people probably, but a lot of people probably remember the player who wore He Hate Me on the back of his jersey(though not his real name). Well a show could done center around the people who could still be hating on He Hate Me. I mean I am sure he probably gets a lot of hate as he has to dodge kids on the Mickey D play structure.
Fraggle Rock
I wonder what is going on down at Fraggle Rock these days?
Jean-Claude Van Damme or Steven Seagal or Chuck Norris
Come how have these dudes not gotten shows. Especially Chuck Norris, he should have a show where he just goes around kicking people. I think that it would be pretty awesome. They could do a show to see how many of those Chuck Norris facts are actually, though I am sure most of them are simply because they involve Chuck Norris. And Steven Seagal could go around seeing if all that throwing stuff that he does actually works. Van Damme, I am not too sure what he could do but I am sure he could do something.
So ends the first installment, another installment will be coming soon.

Another good trailer
There are so many aspects in this trailer that appeal to everyone. A lot of peoples inner nerd will be touched by this trailer. I do not care who you are everyone has at one point in their life dreamed of being a super hero, and some have dreamed of being super villains. I am sure even the hardest drug dealer has had dreams about being a super drug dealer who could fly and had other super powers to help them avoid getting arrested. But like the one dude said, most people would end up getting killed, unless you knew kung fu, karate, ju-jitsu, had a large collection of samurai swords, and quite the arsenal of guns and high tech gadgets as well as the training to use them. Hit Girl looks like a pretty cool aspect. Hopefully this movie will deliver.

It must be the shoes: Dwyane Wade X Anderson Varejao
Most people have seen this but I had to post this again. I think what truly makes this awesome is the Reggie Miller quote. "This is your kodak moment Anderson Varejao". Man Dwyane Wade was a smart man for siging to the Jordan Brand. I know that he was nasty before but it seems like his game is going to another level since he signed with Jordan. I am sure we will see some more epic dunks from him.
Is it Just Me?

I am starting to think that I could possibly be a Nerd.
So this past Halloween I had a pretty basic idea of what I wanted to be. I wanted to be a karate dude, I had seen this awesome Karate tournament jacket in this thrift store, so i figured i could get a karate uniform and rock the Jacket. Little to my surprise when I went to find a karate uniform as costume and I went back for the jacket i could find neither. So I had to come up with a new costume. Strangely I came to a hard decision between two costume Roman Scholar or a Nerd. I ended up choosing the Nerd costume, and I ended up looking like a real nerd. Ok so why did I tell this story I because I am starting to think that I am a nerd. Either way I would have basically been a nerd for Halloween, with the other costume I just would have been an ancient nerd. And as I thought about it I was being what i simply might be, a nerd. Now what qualifies me as a nerd.
Qualifications
I am pretty clumsy, like all the time. At least three times this week, I have trip over slight cracks in the curb. But worse things have happened, and you can ask any of my friends. While I am quite smart I have no common sense what so ever. Also I am very socially awkward. In most situation, I usually do the thing that I am not supposed to do.
At times I look like Waldo with a beard, check out the picture above.
I read a ridiculous amount of Manga and Mahwa(Japanese and Korean comic books). Like I have to read the same one every week, and if they do not come out that week I feel like somebody did something wrong to me. I also love watching animes. As well as Amv's(Anime Music Videos). Whenever I go to the bookstore there are two places that I will usually end up, the manga section as well as the Sci-Fi/Fantasy section.
Most of the movies that I enjoy are action, sci-fi, fantasy, and kung fu. Like I loved Labyrinth, Conan the Barbarian, Red Sonja, The Matrix, Drunken Master, Lord of The Rings, Predator, Alien, Beast Master, Star Wars, Star Trek, The Blob, The Original Godzilla and other monster movies, The Willow, I Robot, Short Circuit, Honey I Shrunk The Kids, and the list goes on and on.
I watch Adult Swim which I do not care what anybody says is nerd central. My top shows on Adult Swim are Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Metalocalpyse, Venture Brothers, Boondocks, Squidbillies, and Stroker and Hoop.
Some of the music that I listen to is that strange music that no one would listen to. I even have the theme music from several cartoons and anime that I watch. I mean I have the Ducktales theme on my iPod, as well as other kind of whacky songs.
I have been to a midnight screening of Harry Potter movie, and also I have been to a midnight release of a Harry Potter book.
I know some random facts about some random stuff that I kind of really do not need to know about.
Back in the day I was huge into Greek Mythology. Any type of Greek Mythology book I could get my hand on I would read it. And I am still into though, now different types of mythology interest me. I use to watch Hercules and Xena all the time, like I rarely missed episodes.
What does not qualify me as a nerd
Never read Lord of The Rings tried but I was never able to do it. And there are a few other essential books that I have not read.
Have never been Larping before. Also I have never been to a convention before. There have been some that I have wanted to go to but never got a chance to go to.
Never played Dugeons and Dragons, World of War Craft, or many of those other MMO type games.
I do not know too much about computers.
Ok so do I qualify as a nerd? And If I do what type of nerd am I? I would say I am a Harry Potter/ Anime and Manga Nerd but I am not too sure.
Also this is not one of those things where I am trying to be a nerd because this is the cool thing to do these days, I have pretty much been like this for quite some time.
Hmmmmmmm
Is this borderline racism? You tell me, because I am not too sure about it. The thing about Kanye was a little unnecessary but it was not that bad, but then the whole thing about Cowboys and Trucks and Guitars seemed somewhat racist.
If your life could be any Song, Book, Movie, Comic Book, Manga, TV show or any other form of entertainment what would it be? pt. 2
So now I bring you part two of If your life could be any Song, Book, Movie, Comic Book, Manga, TV show or any other form of entertainment what would it be? So in this part I will do books and Manga.
Books
Harry Potter series
What other book would I choose. As I read the books, I always thought about what my life would be like if I was a wizard. But not only that if I was the most famous wizard in the world. Imagine being famous, and then on top of that having magic powers. Plus there would be a lot of interesting characters in my life.
Manga
Veritas
Ok my High School was filled with enough drama but this would take it to another level. So all the people who hate each other are extremely skilled fighters. So if you have a problem with someone you just go down the the fighting area, and you try and punch them through a way. It would be crazy.
Bleach
Being a death god would be pretty nice. You get to fight ghost, travel to new and exciting places, as well as carry around a huge sword. There is really only two character in this series that I would want to be, and that is Ulquiorra or Mayuri Kurotsuchi Captain of 12th division, the mad scientist. These two characters are awesome.
If you have no idea what I am talking about you should check out the Manga Bleach, and the Mahwa Veritas.

There is really only two character in this series that I would want to be, and that is Ulquiorra or Mayuri Kurotsuchi Captain of 12th division, the mad scientist. These two characters are awesome.
If you have no idea what I am talking about you should check out the Manga Bleach, and the Mahwa Veritas.
This is It
I just saw This Is It today. Ok I am not going to do a review of the movie, I am just going to talk about it. This movie showed me what separates Michael Jackson from many other artist that are out there. Omarion, Chris Brown, Usher and many others can never compare to him or replace him because he was truly a genius. Not just a musical genius but a true Genius. He seemed to calculate and work out everything that he did. Whether it was telling what note the band should hit, or what tone a singer should have, or the place where the dancer should be and even some of the visual affects he calculated it all. He want everything to fit perfectly. And he seemed like the type of person who does not want to be perfect and have everyone around him just be great, he wants the entire unit to be perfect.
He could have done most of his stuff the way that he normally does it and it would have been great. But Michael wanted to take them to a level that his fans had never seen before. He wanted to give the fans something that they would love. This seems like the closest thing that a lot of people will have to being able to see him do a concert. I truly appreciate being able to see a true genius at work.
Highlights
Human Nature- His performance of this was incredible and the vocals were on point. And the way he had the band backing him up was a good look.
Thriller- It was thriller how could it not be a highlight. But he added some new things to it that made it better.
I just can't Stop Loving you- The back up singer that he had up there with him, made this a great moment. Another one he showed his vocals on.
They Don't Really Care About Us- Come on homey we MAJOR. Michael was really major on this one.
Smooth Criminal- New added stuff made this better. I was waiting for the lean.
Earth Song- The video that was provided with, and the message about how michael felt about this was good.
On a side note: I was waiting to see Dirty Diana.

If your life could be any Song, Book, Movie, Comic Book, Manga, TV show or any other form of entertainment what would it be?
Ok I am the type of person that day dreams a lot. And at times my day dreams seem like movies or other form of entertainment. At times those things are included in my day dreams. So I have a question to pose to the world. If your life could like any Song, Book, Movie, Comic Book, Manga, TV show or any other form of entertainment what would it be? I will give you mine and then just think about yours. I will do this in parts, first up will be the movies.
MOVIES
Clash of the Titans
I have been watching this trailer all day. And I know I would probably end up being the dude who dies but I think it would just be awesome to run around fighting monster and carrying swords. Heck I would not even care if I was one of the monster, especially if I got to wreck some stuff.
Superbad
C'mon who does not enjoy great high school adventures. I think that the adventure that they had was the perfect one, it was filled with everything that you could possibly want.
A Kung Fu Movie
or
It does not have to be these two Kung Fu movies because there are so many to choose from. I just want the privilege of being able to kick somebody in the face. Not because I am angry or I want to a bully or I want to save some girl. I just want to kick somebody in the face. And imagine if your mouth was not in sync with the words that came out of them how awesome would that be.
The Last Dragon
C'mon you had to know this was coming. But honestly I would want to be Sho'nuff.
Napoleon Dynamite
Who would not want to have a Pedro or a Kip in their lives. And who would not want to do a frickin sweets dance scene that bring everyone in their lives closer. And everybody needs some good skills.
Life
Who would not want to be in jail with Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawerence. It would be hilarious, until you got raped, but i guess it would be best to try and avoid getting raped.

Songs that Lupe should RIP for his new mixtape. The LupEND.

Maybe he can kill them on his next mixtape, I would be amazed if any of these were on his coming soon mixtape.

because they dont like the dark"
He must have been on that stuff he had trying to stay away from. Not that "regularrr weed" but that "This ish right here, this ish right here".
D E A D. At the whole cats things. He is a comedian through and through.

CLASH OF SOME MUTHAF#$@^N TITANS
CLASH OF THE TITANS
I use to be a GIANORMOUS fan of Greek Mythology, and I still am. I remember seeing the first Clash of The Titans. It was great movie, and now though it does not stand up to a lot of the high tech CG movie, it style was great. So when I heard they were doing a remake, I was kind of unsure. But this right here, THIS RIGHT HERE. Makes me a whole lot sure. Sometimes when you see trailers like this it makes you think it could be a fail, but i just do not get that from this movie. I can also see some of the things that they replaced, like the Owl and some other things. But it look likes it will be EPIC. And I have never seen a trailer sync the music up so well. Looks like we have another good Summer Movie line up.
Also Sam Worthington is turning into an awesome epic movie acotr. He's got Avatar coming soon, though I am a little uncertain about that. But I am definitely more certain about Clash of the Titans. So which trailer appeals to you more. Clash of the Titans or this.

NO I HATE RAP!!!!
I know that everybody who has been to Little Five Points has run into that dude who ask you if you like rap. Whenever I walk past that dude I tell him that I do not like rap, but every time he sees me, again he asks me if I like rap. Then there are those guys who get mad when you do not want to listen to their music. I remember this light skin dude who always ask me if I like rap asked me if I like rap and of course I say no, so he gets mad. One time I was in Little Five Point with my twin sister Allie Ozell I have on a megatron jacket, simply because I like megatron. So he is a little upset, asking me, do you know what that means, and I am like of course I do, he was the main villain in the transformers series. WRONG, Megatron is actually a pretty big gang in New York, so I guess even though I did not listen to his CD he gave me a little history lesson. I remember me and my homeboy went to Little Five Points and this dude was like "Hey do you want to listen to my CD?" And we were like no thanks and then he just flipped out. Dude us listening to your CD is not going to make a difference in you making it big. If you are still selling CDs in Little Five Points after four years, your music is probably horrible. For a minute I thought that this rapper was about to fight us. Well me and my homeboy were out in San Francisco this weekend. As we were walking around this dude is like "Do you like rap?" I decided to change my answer up and say yes. So he starts talking about who he is or whatever, and stuff like then. Then he starts telling me about how garbage the rappers out now are and how they are not real. Then he asks me who I listen to, and I say Lupe......No response for minute. So my first thought is I won. But then again he asks me who I listen to. So I say Andre 3000. Strangely, he goes back to Lupe saying that if I like Lupe then I will like his stuff. I am like no thanks dude. So he gets mad, and starts telling me that I will see him again on a different level or something like. Honestly if I was to see him again, I probably would not even remember who he was. And I am going to be like "man I should have given this dude like $10 when I had the chance to buy his CD, because I would have the Cd of a famous person".
So I wonder why is it that the rap dudes are the only ones who are so confrontational. You rarely see Alternative rock dudes out asking people if the like alternative rock, or the techno dudes going around dude dance routines with glow sticks asking people if they like techno. But I guess in certain places you have to push you stuff as hard as possible can. I know there are at least 57 million rappers in Atlanta, and half of them are talking about the same stuff.

Lil Wayne Carter documentary
I am sure that most people have seen this already. The only reason that I am posting it is because I wanted to give my opinion on it. Okay so does this music they are playing in the background really fit with this dude? That tragic figure of a dude searching for something inside of himself while looking for the girl he lost in wartime Germany in an Oscar caliber type film. I mean I do not care what anybody says Lil Wayne cannot be painted as a tragic figure, maybe in the sense that there was a lot of talent wasted. But the reason that his talent has gone to hell is through his own vices. Also is just me or does he seem like a big kid. A lot of the stuff that is done in this documentary seems very childish. Now there is nothing wrong with acting childish at times, but that kind of destroys the idea of you being a gangsta when you act like a big kid. I also though it was good that they finally showed him doing syrup. This is good because a lot of people can truly see what caused his downfall. Lastly I thought that it was hilarious that he had to subtitles. But sometimes it is really hard to understand what in the world this dude is saying.

For the Love of Elevation
This is one of those, you should have known better type moments. But man that was sick. I would have just walked over to the bench and been like coach take me out. I am sure Lawrence Frank was shaking his head, or holding it down. But that is probably a regular occurrence for him, I mean he coaches the Nets. Jay-Z is part owner and he would rather go see the Knicks.
Somebody Is Gonna Get Teabagged.
So the Marxist aka Socialist aka Communist aka Fascist aka Negro Lovers aka Democrats won, and the Health care reform passed. I am sure that the Teabaggers will be rioting in the streets. Somebody might even pull out their white robes. But I am sure that there is going to be some madness going on in the USO aka United States of Obama aka United States of Negros. Lets see how this goes.
I wonder who will go crazier. Negras or the Teabaggers. Though the Negras might have to turn down the hip hop music and turn off BET to realize what happened, lol, j/k.

Thats Impossible or Is It?
I am a huge fan of Tenacious D so when I fist heard this I almost died. I wonder if this is something that is really possible. I think one time I laid on the floor, and thought about trying to do one, but then after careful consideration I was like "maybe not". Though I am there is that one random dude out there in the world that can actually do a cock push-up.

Posted using ShareThis
This is a pretty big deal if I must say so myself. Glad to see that this is not the true name of the mixtape. But in the end it is not about the title of the mixtape it is about the music, and i know that Lupe will deliver.
Also saw this on LupE.N.D. Blog which kind of made me laugh being a Lupe fan:
- Lil Wayne mentioned Lupe on his track "Oh Let's Do It" which can be found on his latest mixtape No Ceilings. Here's the line: "I'm sharp as Blu-ray, I fuck her today, then she gotta skate, young Lupe"...*shrug*

Girls X Farting
I am sure most guys have been around a girl when she rips one of the biggest farts ever. Well I know I have at least. I work at a day care, and there is this little girl who is notorious for farting. And I do not mean these so called girls farts the "fluffs" or whatever they call it. I mean grown man farts, where you lean to one side. I remember she ripped one so hard, I thought it was one of the boys but then when her face turn red, I was like WTH. It is one of the most awkward situations ever when a girl farts. I know they are human but it is still one of those things where you have no idea how to respond to it.
P.S. Let me also mention that this little girl has to be one of the sweetest little girls ever. She just farts like a grown man who had and all you can eat a Mexican place called the Bean Burrito Blitz.

Somebody does not have any friends
How many friends do you have that you are a prisoner and you are choking out a guard and you get beat up by other prisoners. Either these dudes really care about the guards at this prison, or nobody likes this dude. I wonder which one it could be?
Shoe N@3ga Moments,
So this weekend I might possibly get a new pair of shoes while in San Francisco. But that was not the main inspiration for this post. Being a huge fan of the Boondocks, one episode and point in the series that stood out to me was the N@3ga Moments. And the main part about that episode that stood out, was about most N#@ga moments starting over a pair of shoes. This seemed very true, though sad, it seems like a lot of drama is start over very high priced sneakers. So what I started thinking about was if there were any pairs of shoes that if somebody stepped on your foot you would be ready to get it in. And not only they stepped on your foot but they did it with some hate in their eyes. These can be shoes that you have, shoes that you want or any shoes in general. Which shoes would make you want to go in? I will put up my top five.
#5. Jordan Spiz'ikes
Seeing as how I do not have these shoes and they have not come out yet I am just going off of theory. But i think i would be pretty unhappy if someone happened to step on these.
#4. Jordan Eight Aqua's
This is another pair of shoes that I do not have in my possession. It is a pair of shoes that I have wanted for a long time. And if I ever got them and then some with hateful intentions stepped on them, I would be quite perturbed.
#3. Nike iD dunks that I created.
Again another pair of shoes that I do not have and may never have. Just the fact that I took the time, to create these. If anybody felt the need to hate on my own personal creation I would be offended. I would feel like they are hating on my own child.
2. Nike Dunk Nylon
These are a pair of shoes that I actually own. These are one of my pride and joys. Not only are they soft, but it is also an off gray color so they would be semi easy to scuff these babies. Also dunks seem to be the new girl approved shoes, so there is a lot of hate when a dude has on a fresh pair of dunks.
1. My futuristic House Shoes
I do not know if they would be ready for me to hit the clubs with these on, and if I did I know that they would be hating and hard. I mean come who has seen such details designs on a pair of house shoes. Polo, Gucci, Louie, Prada, Hermes or whoever cannot mess with these.

Iphone Rock Band, AWESOMENESS!!!
The first time that I saw this was on Jermaine Dupri's blog. Before I saw that I have always wanted this game. So you have no idea how excited I was when I learned that it was on the iPhone and for $10 no less. But yet I was not sure if I wanted to get it or not. Then my homeboy Eyvan posted a status about it, talking about what kind of crack it was, so I just had to get it. And I was not disappointed with my purchase. I played it for like an hour when I first got. If I did not have an iPhone I would want to get it, so that I could have this game. It is pretty simple to pick and just all out fun. The songs that are extremely addictive are Lazy Eye- Silversun Pickups, Simple Man- Lynard Skynard, Everlong and Learning to Fly- Foo Fighters. Great Game, if you have an iPhone pick it up or whatever fun it may come, it is a must have.

Top Six Classic Rock Bands according to ME.
#6. Deep Purple
Though mainly known for the awesome riff they had on "Smoke On The Water", Deep Purple is one of the best bands ever. Most of their songs have really good riffs. And are pretty fast pace.
#5 AC DC
Most of their songs were intense and made you want to fight people. But they have one of the most iconic guitarist ever. Angus Young in school boy uniform shredding a guitar is greatness. And he will murder any riff. He especially killed the one on "Hell Bells".
#4.The Who
or
Having three of the most iconic musicians ever in the same band will do you a lot of good. Whether it is Roger Daltery singing his mind out, Peter Townsend destroying the guitar or hitting power slides, or Keith Moon going in on some drums and driving cars into pools.
#3 Black Sabbath
I AM IRON MAN!!!!
#2 Led Zeppelin
Mystic, Epic, Enchanting, Robert Plant and Jimmy Page are all that need to be said.
#1 Pink Floyd
or
Why is Pink Floyd number one according to me? Simply because they are life changing. The first time i started listening to Pink Floyd it changed my life, it open my mind up to new forms of music. Their music speaks to you. Now matter what song it is or how long the song it is, or whether it has words or does not Pink Floyd songs speak to you. Welcome To The Machine is one of those mind altering songs. Great Band.

Where is Kanye when you need him?
Ellen just gained super cool points for this. What would have set this off was if it had been Kanye instead of Ellen. That probably would have been one of the greatest moments in history.
DEAD when she falls on the ground.
One Of The Great Rap Debates
Rap is something that people argue and debate about constantly. Whether it is who is the greatest? Who has the most money? And who is the worst? People argue about it. I have had many arguments and debates about rap. Now there is a question that I have been thinking about for awhile. After hearing about a Coremega interview where he said something about Drake not being real because he was born with money, it made me start to think about something. Do rapper who do not come from struggle have less credibility than those who do?
Yes rap did start from the struggle but it spread to other places. Most of the rappers who are the most respected in the industry are those who survived the guns, drugs, women, gangs and other harsh aspects of the environments that they came from, as well as continue to stay in them. Jay-Z, Nas, Biggie, Tupac, Lil Wayne, T.I., Gucci Mane, 50 cent, Rick Ross, Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, The Game, and others who are considered the greats have all come from some sort of struggle and they talk about it in their raps. 50 cent always talks about aggressive content, is this what people love in rap aggressive content. Yes most of these artist are lyrically the top give or take a few, but are they the greatest simply because they came from the struggle?
At times it seems that some rappers are looked down upon because their content is not aggressive enough, or because they did not come from the so called "struggle". Some of the most underrated artist are those who some people say just rap because it is fun or something to do. Some people would consider these rapper under the ones that I previously mentioned because they are not hood enough or their subject matter is not aggressive enough and other reasons, Lupe, Andre, Common, Wale, Kid Cudi, Ludacris, Kanye and others. There are even artist who do come from the struggle who are grouped into this category such as Talib and Mos Def. Are these rapper lesser rappers simply because of where they come from. On many occasions I have heard people talk about Wayne is better than Lupe or Andre, and that you cannot compare them. How can you not compare them, they are all rappers? They simply come from different areas and have gone through different things(for some these things have been fabricated or made grander than what really happened). Yes there are different genres of rap but the end of the day they are all have the same intentions to create music, through word, metaphors and beats.
I have had some people tell me that Lil Wayne or TI are better rappers than Andre simply because he is talking about some other stuff. Also TI sometimes overshadows Luda, but in my personal opinion Luda and TI are about the same quality, and Lil Wayne is nowhere near as good of a rapper as Andre 3000. Yet it seems like TI and Lil Wayne are considered better rappers simply because they are more hood than Andre or Luda. Just because Andre is talking about Dracula, Valentines Day, and Aliens or Lupe talks about Robots, Terrorist, Anime and Manga their content is too weird. Many people were like what was Andre thinking with the Love Below CD. It was a Cd that took a different route, talk about different things in a different way. But at the end of the CD he has one of the best rap songs ever, simply talking about life, no mention of drugs, guns, or anything.
And one thing that we should not mistake is that the guns, drugs, and other things are not just in the hood. It is simply a different kind of struggle that some of these artist go through. It might not be the harshest struggle but it is still a struggle.
So I guess what I really what to be debated is in order to truly have credibility in the rap industry, not just in small circles(like the hood dudes or the hipster rap fans) but in all circles. Is it necessary to have come from the struggle? Doe that gain you more credibility? Or is it simply that since rap has always been about the struggle the rappers who talk more about the women, drugs, guns, gangs, and other things that come from struggling get more credibility?
I know that there are exceptions to this, such as Em and Nas. Em coming from a different kind of struggle than the stereotypical rap one(the struggle of African Americans). And Nas whose content often shy's away from that of where he came from.
One more thing i need to say is I am not trying to disregard any of the struggles that these rapper went through or any person who is from the typical African American struggle, I simply am curious about rap credibility.

The reincarnation of micheal jackson
Shout out to my homeboy Tommy for putting me up on this. Michael probably has one of the greatest world wide influences ever. Though that does not mean that everybody should sing his song. LMAO his changes in the lyrics.
