Guru.

One of hip hop's greatest and most influential MC's is going through the fight of his life right now. It was reported sunday that he had went into cardiac arrest and has since went through surgery but as of right now still in a coma. Hopefully he will pull through because he is waaay to young to go at 43. Matters of the heart are very very touchy, that's how my pops went. But me and hip hop jazz heads all around the world are sending good vibes his way. I will leave you with my favorite Gangstarr joint "Royalty", this reminds me of ol school rap city, like Big Lez & Joe Clair rap city :sigh:
Love ODB style

Love, is a burning flame, and ODB has been burnt, more specifically by gonorrhea, twice. I dont know where this is going but let's just say Russell Jones has a way with the ladies.
Bitch, don't talk about bitches I'm fucking them
Please no fat bitches I'm fucking slim
Unless it's one of those nights I'm stroking my shit
I don't care 'bout how I'm fucking it
How much it costs, big fat...crackhead?
Ain't trying to hear all those words you said
Five minutes, bitch (ahhhh) and I came
Fuck your name, and from where you came
I don't give a fuck, bitch! I will kill you!
You Shaquita! You Belinda! You too Passion...BITCH!

ABDC S5 - Ep 5 : The Music Video Challenge (Submitted by LEY)
Here we are in week 2 of the Nationals and it’s the music video challenge. Let’s get right into the performances…
Poreotix – After clinching the first safe spot by viewer votes they performed to “Umbrella” by Rihanna. It was an OK performance, but not up to par with their last two.
Jungle Boogie – Second safe and dancing to Shakira’s “Give It Up to Me”. Good performance, but nothing that WOW’d me.
Static Noyze – They had the video for Little Boots “New in Town”. Frankly I’ve never even heard this song till today, much less seen the video (like MTV plays those anyway), but the judges gave them a good review.
Saltare – Unfortunately they were the 4th safe crew (again, WTF!). They had to perform to Metro Station’s “Shake It”, a song that I like and just got knocked down a peg because this crew danced to it. I’ll give them props for the fact that the sections that mirrored the video were executed perfectly, but there were problems. The judges only pointed out one instance where they got tangled in the ropes, but I counted 3. It was only a matter of time before this would happen. Can we say “Hello bottom votes”?
Heavy Impact – Completely astounded that they were not in the top four safe crews, but hopefully this performance puts them there. They had Colby O’Donis “What You Got” and naturally they had a good performance. They may not be the cleanest crew on the show, but their groove style makes them one of the most enjoyable to watch every week.
Hype 5-0 – I mentioned last week that they would be somewhere in the bottom three (actually my bottom predictions from last week where all correct, go me!). For their performance to Britney Spears “Three” they had some good ideas and some lousy ones. I liked the opening use of the stage where the girls were on the rails and the one guy member doing the split to create the dance pole was pretty ingenious. However, there were several moment when the girls were out of sync with each other and the kiss at the end was unnecessary. Not that I’m against some lez action! I know they did it to pay homage to the infamous Madonna/Britney/Christina VMA kiss, but I’ve seen it before (note Team Millennium’s last performance in season three, from the Britney Spears challenge no less).
And the Bottom 2 are…
Royal Flush – Performed first to Cascada’s “Evacuate the Dancefloor” and they did a good job. Lots of “moments” and good chore-o, but PLEASE get rid of the corny card stuff!
Blueprint – They had Omarion’s “I Get It In” and aside from the headstand part, they too did a good job.
Elimination – Both crews gave good performances, I my opinion some of the best performances of the night came from the bottom two. I really thought that Blueprint was going to be sent home since they messed up on the headstand, but they must have had a higher viewer vote rating from the previous week, cuz Royal Flush got sent packin’ (There ya go Tylia! Your WTF crew was sent home!)
Overall, the music video challenge was weak. I think it stifles the crews’ creativity when half of their performance has to match the video. My bottom three predictions for the week are Saltare, Hype 5-0 and Blueprint. Both Blueprint and Saltare had noticeable screw-ups in their performances and Hype’s kiss scene may be a ploy to get more votes, and it just may work, but not enough to beat out the fan base of the other crews. All-in-all a ho-hum week in performances and I’m looking forward to everyone raising the bar next week. Each season has an “insert-iconic-artist-name-here” challenge and next week (love her or hate her) the Lady Gaga Challenge should provide some interesting results.

Fag Hag Corner
If you know me, you know I love the gays, and for some reason they love me. Case in point: Last summer I went into a 7-11 down by Buckroe Beach in hampton to get me a big gulp. I go up to the register to pay for it and the cashier (whom ive never met in me life) who was an older gentlemen just told me to go ahead, as in not pay for it, followed by the phrase "Love you" in all of his 'How you doin?' glory. Yes honey. Anyway I saw this over on Crunk and Disorderly and I luhved it. If they came out with this as a real single, I would totally buy it. I dont know why hip hop is so homophobic and there isnt an OPENLY gay hip hop artist. Cause we all now half them rappers gay anyways. 'How you doin?'

Countdown to the Middle

IN one week from today (saturday) I will be 25. That is officially Mid 20's. I really dont know how I feel turning 25. I am not where I want to be in life. Its like when your growing up you see yourself doing certain things or being in a certain place. Then you get there and realize its not as you'd thought it would be. Im kind of talking in circles. I guess what im trying to say is...I dont know what I'm trying to say. All I know is that at this point in life im working very hard. What I'm working so hard for is not certain yet. At this point in life I had envisioned myself having my own place, working a good job, having a lush social life, traveling. Instead I'm working 7 days a week, working one job with no room for achievement no matter how hard I tried, and working another job with the uncertainty on whether the position will be mine. Im still living at home, I have NO social life, and no time for traveling. These are supposed to be the best years of your life they say but I'm not having the best time. I try to be optimistic though and convince myself that the best is yet to come. I've always been a late bloomer life wise. What needs to happen now is a plan of action. Setting up short term goals to lead to what I want life to be. I dont need to make lots of money, I dont need lots of friends but I do need to be happier. I'm working on that. Hopefully within the next month I will secure this job at William and Mary. If I do so I feel like I can really start to get myself together. I can start taking classes for my masters (masters in what I dont know), join a community orchestra so I can play music again. Those are the short term goals. Moving out of the house is a goal but I am a little hesitant on that. I do want my own space, but I am a little afraid to leave my mom, physically and financially, I dont know if I am quite ready to do that yet. One of my ultimate goals is to DJ. I have been wanting to do that since I was a kid. I've always bugged my mom about DJ equip. I also want to delve into audio engineering/producing, another thing I've wanted do as a kid (pretty much the reason I went to the school I did cause I thought that was going to happen, obviously it didnt). More specifically after hearing Missy Elliot's Supa Dupa Fly that changed my life. Alright I'm ranting here, but I just hope by turning 25 everything will be Uphill from here and not Downhill cause I dont think I can get any lower from where I am right now.

And Now, Thoughts from Lil Wayne

I have not done one of these in a looooong time. Basically what I do is drop knowledge and insight to the world via the lyrical stylings Sir Carter aka Lil Wayne you can see one example here. Without further ado a few words from one if not the only real philophizer walking this orb we call mother earth.
"Gazing out the window of something foreign, I'm thinking to my self. Self..HOW COME MAKING MONEY NEVER GET'S BORING?! How come making money never never get's boring?"
These words are from a song with possibly the best title ever "F!@#ing Me With Her Eyes"
Honorable Mentions from the same song:
"Baby can I put my private parts in your storage!?"
"Shorty we can kick it like my name Chuck Norris"
