Wiz x Better Off Alone

Wiz Khalifa - New Music - More Music Videos

wow- they flipped that track nicely

stronger drums for yeezy

this clip is 3yrs old... there's no doubt that Kanye works hard, but where do we draw a line to obsession? Or Tim fixed it? I can see that side too. But damn, how many mixes before you're just buggin? I'm not saying this b/c I want Kanye to know, and I'm not hating. However, it's a thin line between dedication and obsession to me. I always thought any "imperfections" in art are part of the whole point of it being art. Perfect art?

his drums weren't strong enough, how ironic right? I'm just saying.

ain't no thang

Christina is baaack

this song doesn't relate to anything in my life at the current moment... but it's still a beautiful expression of things that happen in life & love. gives me goosebumps
Alexandra showed me this track, and we agreed that "this" is the Christina Aguilera that's dope. none of this "not myself tonight" crappy single stuff... even the artwork on this album seems like some contrived wanna be Lady Gaga junk. I really like this "you lost me" song though. deep.

little miss sweet potato head

Fancy had been having some health issues recently, I started to think it might be a food allergy. The good people at Whiskers suggested I add sweet potato to her food, but also take her to the vet. At the time, I failed to realize the monster I was creating.

the expensive & rude doc said it's not a food allergy, but actually a skin infection & that he also detected some hip trouble. So he sold me a spray for the skin, prescribed inflammation meds for the hip and we went home... that night I added the inflammation meds to the sweet potato & mixed it with the kibble. she gobbled it up.

2 weeks later, all her medicine is done & she's back to her Fancyself, however I'm still steaming sweet potatoes every few days to mix in with her dog kibble. why? because i love her!

no, but really. she won't eat this damn dog food anymore! bitch
after some research, I find that sweet potatoes relieve inflammation!

so, I'm her bitch now? damn

Dexter x 2010 x SHOWtime

Yes- we're all excited to see what the deal is with Dexter Morgan in 2010, but let's not overlook that Micheal C. Hall recently beat cancer!!!! the episode had plenty of turns... (no spoilers here) everyone was surprised that Dex wasn't super emo about Rita's death. But, has he ever been really that emotional, ever?? sometimes, grief can be a paralyzing sadness you can't escape.

a reminder that tomorrow isn't promised. so we live for today

meowwwwww

WTF - a hurricane in nyc?

When I moved from Miami to NYC in 2003, I was relieved that they never got hurricanes. I remember Andrew :( and that was nothing short of traumatic. People that have not experienced a storm of that magnitude, can easily overlook the trauma because they aren't remotely effected/affected. I guess I was the naive one to think I could avoid hurricanes all together.

I remember when Andrew hit Miami in 92, the summer before I started 3rd grade. Earlier that month, my grandma had a face lift. So, her head was all bandaged up like a zombie when the storm hit... when went to the food banks etc, people let us cut every line! I also remember, my cousin Holly & her parents came to live with us, b/c their house was really messed up. That was kinda like torture. I think she was in her "terrible two's" or maybe it was 3, 4 or 5. She was terribly spoiled no doubt... or maybe it felt that way b/c I had to share everything with her at that point. umm.... na, she was a brat. Hurricane Holly. ha!

cee lo has somethn' to say

hey hey! yeah yeah :)

exit thru the gift shop

finally got to see this tonight. I was really impressed by the approach. this art is so clever, the doc is insightful on many levels. art is often exploited. interesting analyzation of how people cope w/trauma through obsession. just another reason to love Banksy.

I tip on alligators and little rattle snakers

Something like a terminator
Ain’t no equivocating I fight for what I believe

Some callin me a sinner
Some callin me a winner
I’m callin you to dinner
And you know exactly what I mean

RIP GURU

Rest In Power: Gifted Universal Rhymes Unlimited
Legendary Boston Rapper Keith Elam aka Guru died of cancer Monday (April 19,2010). He was 43 years old. Guru leaves behind a wonderful musical legacy with his group Gang Starr as well as his solo career with the Jazzmatazz albums. The King Of Monotone didn't need to use tricky wordplay to get his point across on the mic. His no nonsense delivery was one of a kind. The world misses you Guru, Rest In Peace

now Gang Starr can never do another record = instant heartbreak

They say it's lonely at the top, in whatever you do
You always gotta watch motherfuckers around you
Nobody's invincible, no plan is foolproof
We all must meet our moment of truth

Situations like this, will make you think twice
That's why instead of preachin death in my songs, I breathe life
And just because I want to it don't mean I will
And just because I'm angry it don't mean I'd kill
And just because she looks good, it don't mean I'd hit it
And just because I'm horny, it don't mean I'm wid it
Just because I make records, don't mean that I'm gassed
And just because I'm rappin, don't mean I chase ass
And just because I'm whylin, don't mean I can't stop
I got discipline baby whether you do or not

Rest in Paradise GURU!
such a sad start to 420, put atleast one in the air for Guru today... it's the 1yr bday of my Going Green project, however, the releasing my new thang today feels inappropriate. check back later next month

Erykah Badu - Window Seat

so can I get a window seat
don't want nobody next to me
I just want a ticket outta town
a look around
and a safe touch down
can I get a window seat
don't want nobody next to me
I just want a chance to fly
a chance to cry
and a long bye bye..

but I need you to miss me
I need somebody come get me
I need your attention
I need your energy
I need someone to clap me
I need your direction
