Record Deals = The Titanic


Listen I'm no Rocket Scientist (maybe a regular Scientist but def not a Rocket Scientist) but it seems like Record Deals are being given out to the most talent-less of acts these days. I think Record Companies are becoming lazy and the backfire is it's making more artists lazy. Then the radio stations become lazy.


F.L.Y. - Swagg Surfing

Never heard of these dudes in my life. The song hits the radio, then they put out some wack video, the album comes out on Def Jam a few later...nobody cares

The Shop Boys - Party Like A RockStar

This was on the radio non-stop the Summer of '07...the album was release through Universal Republic and sold 212,000...these young man haven't been seen or heard of since. Perhaps still partying? Nawh, splitting that 3 ways and still having to break the label off they have about a month left til I see em working at Wal-Mart. Totally Dude


GS Boyz (lazy name) - Stanky Leg

Once again these dudes come from nowhere and score a hit on the radio. People shuck and jive to their dance...OH HAPPY DAY!! They try to push their 2nd single Booty Dew and it was exactly what the song suggested...Booty Dew!

I'm sure I can go on all day and list failures of others but I shalt ( is that the marriage of shall and not?).

Just a Thought...Jeremih...Diddy's kid??



How come Jeremih and Diddy look so much alike? Is he one of Diddy's boys? Jeremih says that Brian from Day 26 is his cousin, did he really mean the owner of the label that Day 26 is on is his father?? Perhaps. On the same note the kid kinda looks like R. Kelly and he resembles Bobby Valentino also, so maybe he was built in a lab and designed to look like these people and generate hit music (we shall see).

Government RX

I think in times of need and diversion the Government gives us (The People) just a little bit to worry about and talk amongst ourselves while they do what they do out of our sight. Case in point...a few years ago people were scared shit-less worried about S.A.R.S...magically through the strength of powerful lawn gnomes it disappeared. Then a few years later West Nile was frightening the hell out of folk....that too just kinda went away after that Summer. Then the animal stuff starts happening. Bird Flu runs amok and then flys south for the winter as well. This years new weapon of choice...Swine Flu now called H1N1...that thing will be pork chops by Labor Day.

The real question I suppose is why are all these diseases coming every year under a new name and leave by the end of the Summer. And every time that it comes out it seems to have the same symptoms and everybody goes nuts. I'm not sure if its a device used when the world is over-populated or if its just a distraction, but rest assured a new Flu type disease will surface 2010. My bet is it'll be called the Fuzzy Ferret Flu. Any thoughts?

Movie Update










Quick movie update:
The Hangover is about a "Vegas trip before you get married," gone wrong. Its full of laughs though, as the group tries to retrace their steps to figure out exactly what happened the night before. Mike Tyson's cameo is classic. The situations are unique (a naked Asian man in the truck) and funny. Its an excellent cast and they all play well off each other. The only odd man out is Mike Epps who appears out of nowhere and isn't funny at all in this. GO SEE !!!

Transformers: Rise of the Fallen is the sequel to the record smashing first movie. This one plays a little long (very long) using a few parts to stretch out the dramatics of Sam's (played by Shia LaBouff) balance of a long distance girlfriend his first year at college and being the owner of a Kick ass sweet Alien car that transforms into a killer robot. This movie satisfies the lack of battle scenes in the first movie. Much more action! Long Long Story!! Hot Girls! GO SEE !!

Pelham 123 is a remake, but what isn't these days. This is a good paced movie where both John Travolta and Denzel Washington play great roles. There are many actors that pop up in this film. Some unbelievable parts happen in the movie definite WTF moments. Overall the movie plays out well. Sadly, dealing with the death of his son, Jet, John Travolta couldn't be available to promote the film (which I'm sure that was kinda the furthest thing from his mind)and that may have decreased this movies buzz. RENT IT!!

Can A Brother Get A Break??!!











Man...can a brother get a damn break??!! I guess not. In the past weeks Black men are getting killed...accused..and forgotten. Bonnie Sweeten, a Philadelphia woman, said that 2 Black men had kidnapped her and her 9 year old daughter and put her in the back of a Cadillac. When in fact she had went to Disney World and her and her daughter were staying in an expensive hotel. Ok she was fleeing Philadelphia planning never to return...cool...you wanna leave your old life behind...ok, fine...but why stay on the East Coast (1), why stay in the country if it was that serious (2) and why say 2 Black men kidnapped you?? (3). When was the last time you heard a Black man kidnapping someone (that wasn't drug related). Amy Smart...kidnapped by some white dude...in fact all kids...kidnapped by some white dude. So how come white women like to say some black man did something crazy to them. I have my theories, but that's for another session.

This racist 88 year old James W. von Brunn comes into the U.S. Holocaust Museum and starts shooting and kills guard Stephen Tyrone Johns....a black man. Damn shame that it happened...damn shame a person got killed...damn shame this man was still on the streets. He had a past of illegal and racist behavior. He has written many publications aimed toward the defamation of Jews, African Americans and other races. He spent over 16 years in prison total for attempted kidnapping, 2nd burglary, assault and weapons charges. He stormed into a Federal building in 1981 brandishing weapons...so why was he let free sadly to do the same thing in 2009 and take a man's life.

On a completely lighter note Eddie Murphy is getting the cold shoulder in Hollywood these days. His new movie Imagine That came out with really no advertising ( I only saw a commercial for it once), no help from the Late Night Shows (I don't think) and no general buzz at all. Is it the he left Scary Spice pregnant and alone?? Or is it no general interest in him anymore. Family movies tend to do well...prob not in the midst of Summer Blockbusters, but on average do pretty good. So why would Paramount waste money shooting a movie that they weren't going to push. It's really beyond me.

Team Arson Basketball League



Me and the homies played ball Saturday at Cloverdale. The team of Street (aka needs to stop smoking), Drag (deceptive jump shot) and Shani (arc queen) won the 1st game and O (aka Big Shaq), Poet (aka FITCH) & Young Damn J (20 cent snowflake) won the second game. Im sore..i think we all are. It was a good outting. Big Dro was on the side lines getting his Phil Jackson on.

Lost Land




Ok, huge Will Ferrell fan, with that being said, I could have waited to see this movie on DVD. Simply because with Will and Danny McBride's comedy and the PG-13 rating this movie has (which I often questioned) it would have been way funnier if it were rated R but still a little out of range. The context of the movie plays like a kids films but the language at times is so overboard that parents probably would leave the theater. I was expecting John C. Reilly to pop up as another scientist but no such luck, perhaps he was filming an Episode of Tim & Eric (LAME). The movie does have its funny points but its kinda few and far between. I just wanna check out the gag reel on the DVD because I know it was a lot of puppet jokes going on. In fact instead of showing the real movie they could have just shown the gag reel and it prob would have been way funnier.
