RIP BIGGIE

This song was created to celebrate and commemorate the life of the late, great Notorious BIG. As the 2nd “Deleted Scene” from the “City of God’s Son” project, I wanted to show my respects by creating this song, and create a parallel world where Biggie still lives.

[Music] XXL - 10 Freshman for '10

2010-03-01T10:01:00.005-06:00

The new breed of hustlers includes: Roc Nation’s first signee J. Cole, gangsta rap up-and-comer Nipsey Hu$$le, newly-minted Asylum lyricist Pill, 1017 Brick Squad member OJ Da Juiceman, indie-sensation Wiz Khalifa, G.O.O.D. Music’s own Big Sean, underground favorite Fashawn, Gary, Indiana rep Freddie Gibbs, West Coast phenom Jay Rock and the latest addition to the Atlantic roster, Donnis.

My favorites from the list are 1) J. Cole 2) Wiz Khalifa 3) Big Sean 4) Nipsey Hu$$le and 5) Jay Rock. Whoever decided to put OJ da Juiceman on the list should be smacked with a Big Bear "Doin Thangs" CD.

[Music] Curren$y - Pilot Talk.. Drops March 23, 2010

2010-02-17T14:46:00.003-06:00

Curren$y just announced in a new video that he will dropping yet another album at the end of next month. Spitta has been dropping material constantly in the past couple of years and has become one of the hardest working rappers. I mean he just dropped his mixtape last month with about two dozen tracks and next month we will be getting even more, not to mention all of the guest features he has been doing. Take a look at the video preview after the jump for what you can expect from Spitta.

Happy Birthday to the Legend!

[Music] Wale doesn't like dark skinned girls?

2010-02-15T09:27:00.003-06:00

This lady claims that Wale was discriminating against dark skinned women in his "Pretty Girls" video. Whether he was or not, it's HIS video and HIS money that paid for it. If she wanted Wale's Pretty Girls video to have darker skinned women, she should have paid for it to do so.

How to make it in America. New favorite show.

2010-02-08T20:49:00.003-06:00

Seems like the new show for HBO will be How To make it in America.

Hopefully not,but most likely will be replacing Entourage after this next season.
HBO gave Youtube the pilot episode, so this will probably be pretty official. And also my man Scott "Kid" Mescudi will be on the show. I'm hyped.

Dipset playing in the silver range definitely made my day in the opening episode.

Best quote of the show "He who hesitates masturbates."

New Curren$y mixtape... Smokee Robinson

Last tape I heard new tracks from Currens$y was with Wiz on "How Fly"
I'm excited to hear this new tape, because I still keep How Fly in heavy rotation.

And with the Saints winning the Superbowl, Curren$y being from the N.O. should make it a even smoother listen.

GET THIS NOW!

Tristan knows... Vol. I

2010-02-01T01:09:00.004-06:00

Well, it's 1:17 AM and it's the first of the month. Since I can't sleep, I might as well drop my thoughts on my blog right? Right! As, I type I scrolled to iTunes and put on Kid Cudi - Man on the moon and Soundtrack to my Life comes on. It's funny, because Cudi's whole album feels like a soundtrack to my life. You have the ins and the outs, the ups and downs, and the wins and losses.

It's a new month I'm attempting to tally up my wins and losses from last month and ask myself if I'm proud with what happened. To my knowledge I took more L's than wins. Which is never good but it's harder to win and takes no effort to lose. This week I have a job interview on campus (haven't worked since the summer) and a meeting with the Film Studies Certificate Program Director at school (hopefully the meeting goes well).

This semester I've been able to buckle down and actually focus on myself. The biggest Win I've had that I think trumps all my L's is that I really have grown. Mentally, Physically, and Spiritually, I don't regularly attend church but there is still spiritual growth. And with my growth I can say I'm proud. Yes, I still make mistakes but instead of making excuses to counteract them I've learned to own up and fix them. That is what makes me proud and not too mad about my losses as they all have made me achieve one big win.

Eggplants dropping again... Must cop.

2010-01-31T22:56:00.004-06:00

Last year these dropped in February, and due to circumstances I wasn't able to get them. *tear* Hopefully this time, I'll get my hands on these bad boys!

According to SC, the Eggplant Foamposite will see a 2010 release. This news is sure to catch everyone off guard. The Eggplat Foams made their debut February 2009, and they are going to drop as a limited release in March 2010.

WHEN IT'S ALL SAID AND DONE, REMEMBER THE FEARLESS, REMEMBER THE DREAMERS, REMEMBER THOSE WHO REPRESENT THE GHETTO...THE FAIRY TALE OF NOTHING TO SOMETHING. I'M BRIEFLY SADDENED BY NEGATIVE COMMENTS, BUT I HAVE TO REMEMBER THOSE PEOPLE ARE SCARED, INCAPABLE OR JUST PLAIN IDIOTS. WE ARE THE FUCKING ROCK STARS BABY. NO COCAINE, JUST LIFE MY NIGGAS!! NO COCAINE, JUST LIFE! IT'S FUNNY TO ME WHEN FASHION BLOGGERS DOWN OUR OUFITS AND THEN SUPER JOCK OUTLANDISH SHIT ON THE RUNWAY BUT THEN THEY DRESS MAD PRUDE AND DON'T LIVE FASHION. WE LIVE IT MAN. FUCK THAT, WE LIVE IT!!! WE LIVE IT SO HARD PEOPLE LIVE THROUGH US! WE REPRESENT YOUR INNER SPIRIT!! THE CHILD IN US ALL, THE BRUTAL HONESTY, THE NAIVETY, THE BRAVE WARRIOR, THE ADRENALINE THAT ALLOWS A MOTHER TO LIFT A CAR IF HER CHILD WAS TRAPPED UNDER IT! REMEMBER, THERE WAS A TIME WHEN EVERYBODY DISSED MICHAEL JACKSON EVERY CHANCE THEY COULD. IMAGINE THE PRESSURE OF BEING A TRUE ICON. VERY FEW HUMAN BEINGS ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO TAKE CONSTANT HATE!!! IF WE DON'T DO WHAT YOU FEEL IS THE SHIT, YOU BEAT US UP VERBALLY AND MENTALLY, LIKE A CATHOLIC SCHOOL TEACHER BEATING A CREATIVE STUDENT INTO SUBMISSION. I CAN HEAR YOU SCREAMING 'COLOR INSIDE THE LINES!!!' WELL FUCK YOUR COLORING BOOK, COLOR BY NUMBERS APPROACH TO LIFE. AT THE END OF THE DAY WHO ARE WE HURTING??? OH "THE NEW BLACK???" SINCE BARACK IS PRESIDENT BLACKS DON'T LIKE FUR COATS, RED LEATHER, AND FRIED CHICKEN ANY MORE?! WHEN YOU TRULY UNDERSTAND CULTURAL SETTINGS, BOUNDARIES, AND OUR MODERN DAY CASTE SYSTEMS, THEN YOU CAN FEEL THE GLORY AND PAIN FROM THE DAYS OF KINGS IN AFRICA TO THE NEW KINGS OF THE MEDIA. LET THE BALL PLAYERS DANCE AFTER THEY SCORE! IT'S LIFE MY NIGGAS, IT'S LIFE! REMEMBER CLOTHING IS A CHOICE. WE WERE BORN NAKED!!! FRESH IS AN OPINION, LOVE IS OBJECTIVE, TASTE IS SELECTIVE, AND EXPRESSION IS MY FAVORITE ELECTIVE. NO MORE POLITICS OR APOLOGIES!!!

I think Big Sean is cool, I'm not a super fan. I like the song, but the video better. It's funny, because when i ride public transportation I always wonder if any of the other riders wonder where I'm coming from or where I'm headed. I don't think people ever really sit and think about the other lives of those sitting right next to them.
