Last week there was a great article on the idiot in the New York Times and now I'm going to share some of my favorite lines from that article with you:
"I’d be like, I’m going to go over here with my college kids and just be who I am. But hip-hop is now that too, and we have to come to terms with the fact that hip-hop is so Morrisville, P-A, now."
(I actually do not have to come terms with the fact that hip-hop is so Morrisville, P-A, now. If I did actually have to do that, I'd go out samurai style.)
I've talked about Asher's "naive thinking in the sense of race" and the gem he dropped on the A Millie Remix he did [[["you know the world's gone mad/ when blacks wear plaid"]]] before but Leif stopped by our myspace with a present and an excuse to bring it up again:
EVERYONE: THIS PHOTO IS INDICATIVE OF THE WORLD GOING MAD.
So any of you who get bored at work and read blogs and stuff may have heard of a lady by the name of Kari Ferrell, a 22-year-old from Utah who scammed her way around Brooklyn. Shorty has 6 warrants out for owing 60 g's to the feds in Utah for check fraud. (Dope!). The headlines here are: fakes cancer, uses sexuality, clever puns on her azn-ness, general patho lying, and scamming and stealing. In Utah she told a dude she was a veterinary assistant who was the victim of racial prejudice that ended with her dog being killed by a co-worker. She also claimed to join the Peace Corps and go to Mozambique.
Last I heard he was getting kicked out of The Wreck Room and yelling "You sure you want to kick me out of this bar? I'm in little band called POPO." He was also recently seen getting kicked out of Charleston while yelling "You sure you want to kick me out of this bar? I wrote, directed, and acted in a little movie called SUPER TROOPERS. You asshole." He has a tattoo of a broken humpty dumpty crying on the inside of his right arm and a slurpy on the back of his left arm. Don't make the same mistake I did. Ask questions.
That title isn't from a real song or anything, but I wanted to shed some light on how underrated my man Mark Ruffalo is in the acting game. Mark Ruffalo is to acting what Young Dro is to rap. Here are some things you may not know about Mark Ruffalo:
Here are some photos of Mark Ruffalo to look at:
If I was writing a fake short story about Mark Ruffalo, the beginning might go like this:
It was 6 AM. In his younger years Mark would have laid in bed longer, stared at the ceiling, and fallen back asleep. He used to bartend. Older Mark is an adult. He was busy. He had things to do. Mark had to take his daughter to school, his son to day care, and had a meeting with Universal at 2 pm. He was trying to quit smoking. He was failing. He used to smoke Camel Lights. When he was 28 he switched over to Parliaments. He was smoking a Parliament. He wasn't sure whether he should shave before the meeting or not. He didn't shave. His agent says he's known for his scruffy look. Mark secretly hates his agent, maybe not so secretly. He drives a pick up truck. He listens to Jeff Buckley, Grace, in his pick up truck. His pickup truck is green. He doesn't turn the volume very high, but it's not too low either. He skips to track 4. He thinks about how Buckley drowned. He misses his brother. He thinks 6:14 AM is way too early in the day to be depressed. Mark turns to his daughter sitting shottie, puts his hand on her head, and smiles. He feels a little bit better.
***also, totally not making a joke out of some of the fucked up shit dudes had to go through (i.e. his brother and his tumor). actually respect dude a lot. he's a good actor.
Up at Bard College where Das Racist earned their phat degrees. And I want everything to look like this:

this dood wambo from mass really puts it down on this asher roth diss while driving with his knees:
there was this other diss that was really really bad by colt daddy and frank dux. it included blatant use of the n-word and received like four or five youtube responses of people laughing at it or dissing frank dux and colt daddy. i cant find that youtoob anymore but what i did find is colt daddy's response to people complaining about his use of the n-bom.
argumentativeIt was my birthday recently and my one doo Toby David gave me these sesame covered dried sardines which were all delicious, each and every one, and my other doo Michael Casper gave me a VCD called The Best of Esan Accrobatic [sick] Dance. You can't find it, and I can't find a better clip of this shit on yo! mtv raps than this: oh shit. Embedding diabled. Well, I guarantee it's unreal and you should push here. Real.
Also, here's a nice version by Eek:

Not sure if this is old news, but I just discovered rainbowpuke.com. It's one-stop shopping for all your rainbow puke image needs.
Interesting fact: That Levar Burton image has not been photoshopped.Saturday night Hima was screaming in the bathroom while I was screaming at dancehall and reggae and shit on yo'tubs, and then he came out and was all about me posting shit on here and I was cool with that so here it is. Most things will be bad or kinda retarded, and it might be clear which is which, or sometimes things might be fully good. Everyone's a winner. Mostly it's stuff I like that black people made. I'm kinda black. Here's 4, which might be too many to start with, in no order:
Thanks a million. Make summer happen.
