"For Colored Gworls Whose 30 Minute Lunch Ain't Enuff" An Excerpt
I have recently been inspired to write a premise to a non existent stage play. Here is a monologue and the climax to the play.
"8 hours, 8 hours a day, I talk, I listen, I resolve. You mean to tell me that I only have 30 minutes for lunch! By the time I take a leak, and heat my meat, my lunch is complete! This can't be right, I say with all my might, this can't be right! I need to breath, I need to watch TV, I need time for ME! This is a struggle that all of us face. This is a struggle for colored gworls of all races! I've lost all my patience! This has become too much! This is For Colored Gworls Whose 30 Minute Lunch Ain't Enuff!!!"

Album Review: Kid Cudi Indicud
Hello all, it has been a ridiculously long time since I last wrote on this thing. Quite a few things have happened but I will get to that on another post (well, maybe). This post is about one of my husbands (in my head) latest album. So far April has been an amazing month for music. Tyler, The Creator with Wolf and Depeche Mode with Delta Machine . Both albums I will be purchasing in the very near future. The album that I was most excited about was Kid Cudi's Indicud! This is technically Cudi's fourth album but his "rock" album WZRD, although ballsy, was just not good. And that's coming from not only a super Cudi fan, but a fan of rock music. Sorry boo, it just wasn't good. So people were excited to hear that Cudi was getting back to Cudi. Not only that but he announced that he will be producing all the tracks himself. Personally I was a bit afraid, this is the first album that Cudi's previous production partners Pat and Emile, who shaped the "Cudder" sound would not be involved in. Long drawn out album review short, this album is pretty amazing. Although Cudi's production can be a bit clunky or busy, there is beauty that can be found in this. One great example is the song "Young Lady" where it literally sounds like 2 songs going on at once, somehow, it works.
There is also an element of surprise with the totally random and amazing collaboration with Micheal Bolton MICHEAL BOLTON!
The song "Afterwards (Bring Yo' Friends) is giving me 90s R&B club infused realness.
Simply put I am throughly impressed with this being Cudi's first full foray into producing and this is the result. I'm happy to be a Cudder fan since the beginning as seen in this post from '09. I LOVE YOU CUDI!

Jammies
Here are a few songs that I am into at the moment. Would you mind if I shared with you? Oh you DO mind? You have something else to do? HOW RUDE! Anyway here we go.
Up first is Dr Dre's latest protege Kendrick Lamar. He's been bubbling for the past couple of years and his debut Aftermath album is supposed to be coming out later this year. This is his first official single "Swimming Pools (Drank)". Kendrick has an amazing way with words and storytelling. Almost every song I have heard from him has substance to it. It is in no way preachy, more like a case study. He is something that is well needed it today's (mainstream) hip hop.
Up next Zebra(f-ing)Katz ft Njena Reddd Foxxx "Ima Read". This song is EVERYTHING!!! "Ima chop that b!tch, Ima slice that b!tch, Ima ice that b!tch" YASSS! The library is CLOSED
Lastly, this song is my guilty pleasure song. If you have not heard of Kreayshawn well let me try to give you a short summary. Random white girl from Oakland who directs videos and "raps". She came to youtube fame last year for her song "Gucci Gucci" and from that one song she signed a rumored 1 million dollar record contract. Since then she has had a series of fails (starting 'beef' with Rick Ross, harshly criticized stage performances) and embarrassments (several dismal freestyle sessions) But girl still has an album to make and a contract to fulfill right? So I guess this is her ofiicial official first single "Go Hard". When I first saw this video I cringed. I mean lets face it, this chick can't rap for sh!t. Then something started happening, I started nodding my head. This song is friggin catchy I can't lie. Plus its an eye catching video, and she's a cute girl, that'll get you everywhere. So sit back, drop your inhibitions and actually enjoy this.

Odd Cypher
Here is a recent Odd Future cypher while at famed photographer and famously creepy dude Terry Richardson;s studio. As usual Wolf Gang never disappoints when it comes to pure entertainment. Also they are embarking on a big tour this upcoming late summer/fall and their first stop is in Norfolk! I was going to buy tickets the day the went on sale last Friday but I had some other monetary priorities to tend too (being a grown up blows) hopefully I would be able to get those tickets next week. Betsta believe my old a$$ would be way up in the balcony. I've learned my lessons, I'm getting to old for that pit sh!t.
Crying
The first time I saw this video I hollered with Astonishment and Glee. I don't know if these kids are really dancing to Lil B but I know one thing that dude in the middle is KILLING IT! This is what the Wave in Norfolk looks like on Wednesday nights, but with glowsticks and strobe lights. What I love about these dudes is their stamina. When it looks like they're about to tire out and give up, the music of the BasedGod gives them strength to go on. This is just great.
