The Systematical Cycle Of "The Club Love" Gene.

Hi,...I'm..Me.

and I want to talk to you about..

this..

..this..thing..this curse, like..I've REALLY studied this..for years.
research - reading - watching documentaries
studying religious teachings on the subject, studying the history available to me.
which is why I believe the past is so key to the to present and future.
because..THIS type of shit, that you go through
DATES back to Abraham....or Ibrahim*
dates back..to Moses..like this is nothing new
they dress that shit up for you in The Bible to make it a fairytale
-- REALITY --
Abraham wanted to fuck Hagar
and have a son
because he couldn't wait for Sara to become fertile
if he REALLY loved her, he would've WAITED for God to make her fertile
and look what happened..? ended up with two sons
two different women. hated each other.
the first historical case of.."baby mama drama"
he had to pick and choose..and it continues til this day
BUT
with all that said
we live with it.
we make it work,...somehow.
that's how it's made for us to function.
we move on.
we find others to continue this terrible
HORRIBLE.
excruciatingly exhausting
cycle with.
..and life goes on.
it keeps the population movin'
it funds the economy. (no bailout)
which brings me to my next point..
"L O V E "
..and the IDEA of it, has been..commercialized and industry doctored.
the name for the Club, "LOVE"
is aptly put..because it really breaks down
pretty much, the stages and all that entails
this..misconstrued four letter word of fuckery.
EVERYONE is always in "it" these days
EVERYONE puts on their best
..and fronts as long as they can til it's time to go.
..they get fucked up..
..they stand and wait as long as they need to if they have to..
..hell..they'll sneak IN "it", if they can..
..has a friend that can get them in "it"..
..they fake in "it"..
"it" is one a big ass show.
money is thrown around prodigally in "it"
you drink..even when you say you wont..
..you wake up..hung over from "LOVE"
swearing up and down
you wont do "it" again because of how
bad you felt from the after-effects of
"It"
but what happens, what the fuck do you do?
-- GO BACK --
the very next week
..do the same shit and fuck up all over again
WHY?
society, expects and accepts it.
that's the norm. conform or be ignored.
it's just life.
and I want you to understand..
that whatever hurt you feel, because of the time you've invested,
the emotion you put in, the sacrifices you've made. It seems
like
it was all a waste or in vain now.
but
it ISNT and wasnt. because someone was and is watching.
they've noticed.
and THATS how the cycle continues.
you have to exert yourself.
you have to display, in order for those to be drawn in.
...That's just how it works.
you suck it up, bribe the bouncer with a $50
or
put on your push up bra and bat your eyelashes.
cuz you got to try again and hope you leave there
with someone, worth not coming back with.

that said,

see ya'll this weekend, for the celebration of HU homecoming.

I'm D. Omen.

HOPE, DOPE. & NOPE

ANOTHER Assassination Attempt Thwarted
When Will The Hate Stop???

(courtesy of hiphopgame.com)

A week before the election, and it appears people are already plotting to take out Senator Barack Obama. Law enforcement agents have annoucned that two Neo-Nazi Skinheads were ready to kill over 100 black people and Senator Obama.

According to the reports, the plans of the Neo-Nazi were stopped before anything happened. Their plan was to rob a gun store, and a target an African American High School with intentions of killing a majority of them. Finally they would go out and try to assassinate Obama.

These two men have been apprehended and are being held without bail. There names are Daniel Cowart, a 20 year old from Bells, Tennessee, and Paul Schlesselman, an 18 year old from Helena-West Helena, Arkansas. Atf special agent Jim Cavanaugh spoke to the AP, and stated that the plan consisted of shooting 88 black people, and beheading 14 others. As for Obama, they had "planned to drive their vehicle as fast as they could toward Obama shooting at him from the windows."

Cavanaugh also conveyed that "both individuals stated they would dress in all white tuxedos and wear top hats during the assassination attempt. Both individuals further stated they knew they would and were willing to die during this attempt."

"They said that would be their last, final act — that they would attempt to kill Senator Obama. They didn't believe they would be able to do it, but that they would get killed trying."
"They seemed determined to do it. Even if they were just to try it, it would be a trail of tears around the south."

Obama has yet to speak on the matter.

BluntlyPuts: NIGGA News

2008-10-25T17:15:00.002-04:00

BLUNTLY PUTS:NIGGA NEWS
by Felecia COleman

Comedy Central, one of the funniest yet disrespectful stations on Cable TV lost my vote due to down right disrespect a couple weeks ago. I mean, its no surprise when I turn on Comedy Central and see South Park making fun of different races, religions, and genders but there has to be some line that we cant allow this station to cross. I mean, I can only laugh at so many “so there’s a black guy and a Hispanic in the back of a car. Who’s driving?” jokes before I take it personal. All of the Black jokes, Jew jokes, Hispanic jokes, and Asian jokes, all of them are funny until the underlying message sinks in, but recently, I feel as if Comedy Central went below the belt and personally offended me.

I’m talking about their new show “Chocolate News”. Starting with the name of the show, I already feel disrespected and as if my race is nothing but a joke. Maybe it would have been funnier on BET, but the fact of knowing that some Caucasian prick that owns Comedy Central actually allowed for the name of this new show to be called “Chocolate News” is extremely degrading. I mean seriously, is it me, or does this just seem like a way of dancing around “Nigga News”?

Second, the host of the show is David Alan Grier. Seriously, Comedy Central? He’s the corniest black guy in the universe! His career started to go haywire after Jumanji and maybe that’s why he felt it was suitable for him to sell his soul to Comedy Central. Not only is his undisputed retired comic relief a problem with him being the host, but the fact that Comedy Central hired the most white-loved black man, besides Wayne Brady of course, to take on this racist challenge makes me feel like this show isn’t meant to be for black people to laugh at Black people, but for white people to laugh at Black People. What a great representative and way to go, David Alan Grier. Fuck you David Alan Grier and your already fucked career. Not only do you make yourself look like an ignorant jack ass but you make the African American race feel like shit too. Thanks, thanks for that. Well look on the bright side. At least now you’ll be remembered for something more recent and not just seen as “oh, oh yeah, that uhm, that corny black guy on In Living Color. What‘s he up to now-a-days?” Way to boost your career and your struggling fan-base you idiot.

Not only is having David Alan Grier a butchering to the African American image, but the actual content on this show is ridiculous! I have never seen more downright racist puns in my life! There are clips with David Alan Grier referring to women as hoes, clips with David Alan Grier in a music video talking about big asses, and tons of other outrageously stereotypical jokes that I find offensive. The audience for Comedy Central is predominantly white and is it okay for Comedy Central’s only “all black” TV show to only show the negative sides of the African American Culture? There was a clip I watched with David Alan Grier disguised as a typical rapper with a big hoody and shades talking about how he was killing, stabbing people, shooting people, being shot, and being married multiple times and I feel like these are topics that should be left for serious recollection and not used as a comedy skit. Are there not already enough clueless Caucasians in the world that think all black people do is rob banks, steal cars, and make video’s? Thanks to this show, that list will be increasing.

I feel offended but more so embarrassed that there’s even a black man in the acting business who would degrade his own race like this and feel fine at the end of the day, cause I sure as hell don’t. Especially at a historical and monumental time like this. Barack Obama is about to win the presidency of the United States and Comedy Central coincidentally decides to air a Black comedy show? Fuck outta here. Comedy Central took it too far with this one, dedicating a whole half an hour to the newfound comedy in the black world of problems. Fuck you Comedy Central and your attempt to find humor in the shootings and killings of the black people I personally know and that my friends personally know. I didn’t think it was funny when friends and family of mine got shot, killed, stabbed and I don’t think its funny now that it’s on your station. Like I said earlier, its only funny until the message sinks in and the fact that there’s even room for laughter at the subject matters Comedy Central exploits makes me sick. Making fun of problems that my family struggles with as an African American household isn’t humorous and this is 10 times worse than any other racist-filled Comedy Central show. We, as a race, have to draw the line somewhere and if I’m the only one that feels that way then so be it, but this is one NIGGA who WILL NOT be tuning in to the NIGGA NEWS.

GO BARACK.

WTF Is This World Coming To?

2008-10-14T18:38:00.004-04:00

Please look at both videos.

SMH. Now after watching the second video is the white man actaully needed to kill off our race. Like I feel like he can go home and just let us kill ourselves. This shit is sad. Shit like this makes me ashamed of my skin color, both videos but primarily the second. They all showboating laughing and shit nobody is sayin wait maybe we should stop this (remind me of the video with lil girl and boy dancing). Where the fuck are the parents? Its back enough that Im being hated because of my skin color but to know there are plenty of african americans making easier for them to do it makes me sick to my stomach sometimes. When I see that most of the people locked up are black or most of the people on welfare and abusing it or that WE ARE DOING RADICAL RACISTS WORK by killing each other I just wanna stay in a hole and never come out. I dont know what to say I wish we could do better with all my heart but tears of disappoint fill my eyes as I realize it will never happen.

And as for my racist friend up there attempting murder hate crimes. I could type some really nasty things to say about you but I wont what you did was stupid I dont understand hating a whole race for something one person has done to you. Ignorant on your behave. This just proves that though my race is dieing we are not the only ones who need help.

Me! I am Chae' Nice I wont give you a whole 10 minutes of decribing myself, my personality flows through my writing.

I was on youtube bored the other day and I somehow stumbled across this guy, Shad. At first sight I thought it was like a spoof video of the Fresh Prince Of Bel Air you know how these youtubers can get carried away, remaking episodes & ish. So I decided to scope it out in hopes for some laughs. I was kind of disappointed it wasnt a spoof but I fell in love with his flavor. Check out the video.

Kenyan born (but Canadian based) rapper Shad (born Shadrach Kabango in 1982) was able to release his debut album, 2005's When This Is Over, after winning nearly $20,000 in a Kitchener-Waterloo radio station talent competition. The album was a critical hit, featuring socially conscious lyrics, and won him a deal with Black Box Recordings. His second album, The Old Prince, dropped on October 16, 2007. In 2008, Shad and his Old Prince were nominated for Rap Recording of the Year at that edition of the Canadian Juno Awards music ceremony. -Bio Taken from Imeem.

"A plane carrying six people was departing shortly before midnight Friday when air traffic controllers reporting seeing sparks. She says the plane went off the runway and crashed on a nearby road.

Federal officials say two crew members and two passengers have been killed.

Officials say two people have survived the crash and have been carried to the Augusta Burn Center.

Officials at the Augusta Burn Center say they have Travis Barker, the former drummer from the band Blink-182, and Adam Michael Goldstein, aka DJ AM. Both are in critical condition. Barker and Goldstein were in Columbia Friday night for a concert at Five Points.

Autopsies are currently being performed to confirm the identity of the four who died in the crash."

EVACUATE!!!.....wait....where?

2008-09-15T16:37:00.005-04:00

TAKEN FROM WTOPNEWS.COM

WASHINGTON -- D.C.'s new evacuation signs -- designed to direct drivers out of harm's way in the event of an emergency -- are already being met with criticism.

City leaders officially unveiled the signs Monday.

The current emergency evacuation system in the city has been questioned in the past. Right now, evacuation routes are designated by a D.C. flag on street signs.

The new plan calls for attaching a blue sign with white writing to the top of street signs on evacuation corridors. The new signs read "evacuation route." Officials say the signs will more clearly identify evacuation routes out of the city.

WTOP Traffic's Bob Marbourg doesn't think the signs will be effective.

"You get on a road, have no idea where that road is going to take you, and often that road doesn't take you there anyway. So to simply call a route an evacuation route is not going to help people," says Marbourg.

"From what I have seen of the sign, it doesn't add anything to my knowledge of how to get out of harm's way."

D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty says the plan is not perfect.

"If there are some changes that still need to be made, we'll make them."

Navigating D.C. streets is already a tricky procedure, especially for someone from out of town. In an emergency, not knowing which way to go could prove to be a fatal decision.

There are 19 emergency evacuation routes in the city that are scheduled to get the new signs. It is estimated 3,500 existing street signs across the city will be outfitted with the new evacuation route placards.

The first signs will be attached to the existing street signs along Pennsylvania Avenue.

The signs will cost the District $250,000. The city hopes to have that process completed by the spring.

JessieADORE www.myspace.com/jessieadore

JessieADORE
They say she’s too smart for her own good and scarily analytical- she responds with that oh so mischievous smirk. Refusing to be swayed by worldly opinion, jessieADORE has grown to love the beat of her own drum and embraces the fact that many others may not.“I’m not here to entertain you”, begins her off-putting mantra, “I’m simply a messenger.”

This being said by a record selling singer/songwriter may come across perplexing, but that’s exactly what her debut album “The Heathens Epiphany” explains. Not attracted to false glory and disenchanted with that shiny pedestal people in the industry are often placed upon, Adore understands that what she possesses and has to offer is not in and of herself. “The Heathens Epiphany”-an introduction to JessieADORE, creates an intimate atmosphere conducive for any listener to get up close and personal.

The album certainly does not represent Adore entirely; instead it serves as an explanation for the arrival to her present place in life and spirit. With this gritty and confessional bridging of the gap between her past and present, Adore sets the platform for listeners to follow the journey into her future.Life Music is the best sound description for this genre-less musician jessieADORE provides a fusion of funk, hip-hop, soul and rock n roll strung together by insightful lyricism to form an innovative, fresh, new sound creating an element all its own. It does not duplicate the standard sound of modern music. Rather, it draws from the essence of great music past, and is glazed with imaginative experimentation, which speaks to the music lover. Hopefully you’ll love it.

2008-09-03T10:28:00.003-04:00

So.... Palin, the VP for McCain, has a 16 year old daughter that is pregnant. The media is using the Spears family, as an example to show how a young hollywood teen or well know person does with the situation. This leading to failure in other projects. So... how come she is still McCain's VP?

Also:

1. What if she was African American?
2. Why all of a sudden does he have a woman from Alaska as his VP?

Uyai...

I will elaborate futher... later.

Ramadan

2008-09-02T10:34:00.000-04:00

What is Ramadan?

Ramadan is a Muslim religious observance that takes place during the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, believed to be the month in which the Qur'an was revealed to Angel Gabriel which later was revealed to Prophet Muhammad. It is the Islamic month of fasting (sawm), in which participating Muslims do not eat or drink anything from dawn until sunset. Fasting is meant to teach the person patience and humility. Ramadan is a time to fast for the sake of God, and to offer even more prayer than usual. Also involved in Ramadan are asking forgiveness for the sins of the past, asking for guidance in the future, and asking for help with refraining from every day evils and trying to purify oneself through self-restraint and good deeds.

Fasting

During Ramadan, Muslims are expected to put more effort into following the teachings of Islam and to avoid obscene and irreligious sights and sounds. Sexual activities during fasting hours are also forbidden.Qur'an Purity of both thought and action is important. The fast is intended to be an exacting act of deep personal worship in which Muslims seek a raised level of closeness to God Almighty. The act of fasting is said to redirect the heart away from worldly activities, its purpose being to cleanse the inner soul and free it from harm. Properly observing the fast is supposed to induce a comfortable feeling of peace and calm. It also allows Muslims to practice self-discipline, sacrifice, and sympathy for those who are less fortunate, intended to make Muslims more generous and charitable. Muslims can eat after the sun has set.

Pregnant women, the elderly, the ill, and travellers are all exempt from fasting as lack of food and liquid in these situations could be detrimental to health. The fast is also not considered compulsory in childhood (typically considered to end at puberty), although many children endeavour to complete as many fasts as possible, as practice for later life.

What Have We Gained From Ramadan?

Ramadan is a school of iman and a 'stop to recharge one's spiritual batteries' - to acquire one's provision for the rest of the year...

For when will one take a lesson and change for better if not in the month of Ramadan?

The noble month is a true school of transformation in which we change our actions, habits and manners that are in variance with the Law of Allah 'azza wa jall. “Verily, Allah does not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves

If you are from those who benefited from Ramadan, fulfilled the requirements of taqwa, truly fasted the month, prayed in it with truthfulness, and strove against you soul, then praise and thank Allah, and ask Him for steadfastness upon it until you meet your death.

Be not like one who has sewn a shirt and then destroyed it... Have you seen one who sewed a shirt or thawb, so when she looked at it, she liked it. Then she destroyed it pulling a thread by thread for no reason. What would people say about such a person?! Or have you seen one who earns a fortune trading throughout the day, then when the night comes, he throws away all that he earned, dirham by dirham. What would people say about such a person?!

Feast of the end of Ramadan Month or Korite Festival in Senegal

Korite oer Eid is a Muslim holiday that marks the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting. Koriteis an Arabic word meaning "festivity", while Eid means "to break the fast" (and can also mean "nature", from the word "fitrah") and so symbolizes the breaking of the fasting period.

Eid ul-Fitr starts the day after Ramadan ends, and is verified by the sighting of the new moon. Muslims give money to the poor and wear their best clothes. Eid ul-Fitr lasts three days and is called "The Smaller Eid" compared with the Eid ul-Adha that lasts four days and is called "The Greater Eid"

On the day of the celebration, a typical Muslim family awakes very early, does the first everyday prayer, and is required to eat a little, symbolizing the end of Ramadan. They then attend special congregational prayers held in mosques, large open areas, stadiums and arenas. The prayer is generally short and is followed by a sermon .Worshippers greet and embrace each other with hugs in a spirit of peace and love after the congregational prayer. After the special prayers, festivities and merriment are commonly observed with visits to the homes of relatives and friends to thank God for all blessings.

AfroPunkalution - Mohawks and Black Lipstick

2008-08-28T19:33:00.023-04:00

By: Anthropoliticorpus Humaneas

Within the corners of black identity are a host of anti-monolithic sentiments. Many of these sentiments are echoed in music, hair, clothing, and vernacular. In the presence of so many ethnic notions, deviation from cultural norms can often yield one a whole lot of misunderstanding and judgement. I should know--I carry two shoulders bearing the chips of the implicit imagistic expectations of those believing that they share my racial experience. Lately, I've been on a chronic N.E.R.D fix on my mp3 player; I haven't had an appetite for anything less than a mohawk; and I haven't been able to tolerate wearing anything lighter than black (and that includes the shade on my lips). I'm generally a moody soul---so nothing should be wrong with my latest mood manifestation. Right? Well, not quite. In the age of "just do you," and what visually seems to be a nostalgic (though inevitable) return to 80s aesthetic, why do I get the "he thinks he's white" stare from all the "I'm from Anacostia, but I'm gettin' off @ Gallery Place to transfer" black folks whenever I'm on the green-line? I'd like to think that I'm just as "salt-peppa-ketchup and mumbo sauce on my fries from the Carry-Out" as the next guy; only, I prefer a pair of chopsticks (hey, it is not my fault you only know how to use a fork). And, notwithstanding an admittance of personal narcissism and a little bit of perceptive paranoia, it seems like if you're black and you look like you have an appreciation for the anarchy and angst of Marilyn Manson, you're casted the quiet glance of racial treason, and everybody assumes that you must be that long-lost-silent racially ambiguous black kid from Falls Church with too many white friends to realize that your stickered skateboard is not a real mode of transportation.

---Enter the AfroPunk Rockers---

Some five years ago, the legendary James Spooner and Ayanna Mackins created a documentary entitled "Afro-Punk: The Rockn 'n Roll Nigger Experience." The piece explores the lives of a number of black youth immersed in an alternative social culture saturated in punk, emo, and metal rock music. Exile, interracialism, dualism, blackness, and aesthetic are examined through what seems to be a vicarious third-person ethnographic lense, where notions of black-identity are invited by the challenge of inward doubt and visual negation. I saw the film way back when I was a volatile misanthrope rocking a buddhist mind, mala beeds, and a self-made Krishna sarong through Congress Heights (no one had the wherewithal to try to whip my ass for it, because the confusion was too thick). It turns out that so many of us are ignorant about black aesthetic and black music. I've never been one to believe in the racial ownership of social expression, but I do believe in crediting the origins for the betterment of our more primitive selves. Rock music (and its popular aesthetic) is black. Rock-n-roll originates from the likes of gospel and blues music, and in the 50s and the 60s, the musical idiom incorporated elements of country western music to create more of a multi-racial experience and appeal. Pioneers of this music do not include Elvis (he just replicated), but instead include artists like Little Richard, Bo Diddley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, and even Ike Turner's abusive ass. In my judgement, Nina Simone was one of the earliest explicit embodiments of what we know today as "punk-rock"; listen to her song entitled "Revolution" to get my drift. Later on, we see this kind of music take shape more pervasively with the genius of Jimmy Hendrix and others.

Okay---so by now, many of you are thinking "enough with the boring history lesson." Well, that leaves everything else; the mohawk, the black, the piercings, the mosh pit, and the rage. What the hell is it all about? Well, moshpits are strikingly similar to indigenous African dance traditions, in which dance circles are formed to invoke a particular diety. Some of the movements seen in moshpits are clearly West African dance; the undulation of the back, the opposite circulatory coordination of the arms, the lifted percussive knees, and the closeness to the ground. Tattoos, piercings, mohawks, erie face paint (make-up) are as ancient and afrocentric as scribes and heiroglyphs. And the rage and the dark mood? Well---if you have to wonder about that, then you dont deserve an answer.

In Spooner and Mackins' film, a more personified explanation is given for the late domination of rock music by white youth; but harnessing the dangers of black intra-racial discrimination, homophobia, heterosexism, and stereotypism is the most urgent theme screaming throughout the subtext in the film. Tamar Kali, one of the more well-known AfroPunk rockers of our time, talked about how she discovered African aesthetic through punk rock, yet endured being called a "dike bitch" and a host of other xenophobic epithets by other black people in the street. Hence, the "exile" I mentioned earlier. And I wont even mention the hideous discriminatory culture of sexual and gender identity anti-pluralism/exclusivism of the black community---that will be another post. More importantly, the documentary teaches some valuable lessons for our closed-minded black brethrens. We all need to revisit our ethnic notions before we voice them. And just in case you were wondering, AfroPunk is a social grassroots movement, one that is out to redefine the parameters of blackness and to challenge conventional norms that degrade and devalue deviation from normativity. See the film if you're in the mood, but more importantly, celebrate those who by the braveness of their own individualism are different from you. One's image is never meant to be determinative.

Some AfroPunk(esque) Artists/Bands: Living Colour, 24-7 Spyz, Cipher, Tamar Kali, Imani Coppola, Bad Brains, Nona Hendryx, King's X, Fishbone, and Whole Wheat Bread.

R.E.U.B.

2008-08-27T16:40:00.003-04:00

Born in Ghana, West Africa, R.E.U.B arrived in the United States under political
asylum and was raised throughout much of the east coast, fromMaryland to New York. Though R.E.U.B may not speak his mother’s native tongue, his music definitely speaks the language of many. Most who first hear the rapper/producer compare his lyrical content and flow to artists such as Common and Little Brother. Listeners will also appreciate a style and diversity, as beautifully schizophrenic as hip-hop legends Nas or Tupac delivering equal parts of rawness, intelligence,
honesty, and just straight fun. Therefore, it is no surprise that everyone from hip-hop purists to industry insiders are beginning to take notice of this artist that chooses not to have a “rap name” but better suited to his business acumen and personality, an acronym based on his birth name: R.E.U.B ( Real Entrepreneur in the Underground Business of hip-hop). According to DJ Swift, “He will no doubt achieve the legendary status of KRS, Rakim, Tribe, De La, etc. because he’s real and he’s doing it right…fresh beats and on point lyrics.”

R.E.U.B lived up to his name with his 2004 debut album, Pair-a-dice by selling impressively for an independent artist with hardly any backing. In early 2008, R.E.U.B. released the remix album entitled “The Billboard Insurgence: R.E.mixed”, a verbal takeover of Billboard chart toppers with new concepts and a fresh
perspective. “I just wanted to show my fans and hiphop fans in general that hit music can be quality music. I don’t have to be underground to have something to say. I can actually take the most high profile/ mainstream songs out today, and make them even better. This album should be proof to fans/labels/journalists that R.E.U.B. should not to be overlooked by the billboard as well as the underground!”, R.E.U.B says of the album.

Now preparing to take his forthcoming album The (Black) Rapper Show to another level, R.E.U.B has teamed up with producers, Proverb and Olawale, to collectively form the three-man production team, The Clinic.

BluntlyPuts: Premature Pussy Poppin'

2008-08-21T13:18:00.004-04:00

Premature Pussy Poppin'. by Felecia Coleman.

So I sign into Facebook and I’m doing the usual- Facebook IMing, tagging pictures, and reading notifications while listening to Carter III. When suddenly I am attracted to a certain status that looks different from the others. One of the ones that has links to another site with an intriguing caption of WOWZERS right next to it. I clicked the link expecting something like a new song on you tube to show up or a picture of some face book hoochie but when the site comes up, I notice that maybe this particular link had some significance.

And there it was. In big white letters in that blue tool box.

"WHO IS TO BLAME FOR THIS ADULT BEHAVIOR”

A video comes up and the freeze frame is this 5 year old girl in a bright pink halter top backing her lil ass on this 5 year old boy at a party. And I’m like WHAT THE FUCK!? I press play and sure enough this little girl is gettin’ it more than I ever could! I mean putting in work! And this little boy is holding her waist as the audience of family and friends are entertained by this little girl basically dry humping this little boy!

After a couple face to face humps, the girl turns around, gets her iggalo on, then DROPS to the ground on her knees and starts percolating her little body up and down! The boy then drops to the floor, gets under her ass and they are basically fuckin with clothes on I SWEAR! The family is in the background screaming “OH SHIT! YEAH!! YEAHH!” and the little boy looks up at them with the biggest cheese on his face. Then the little girl gets up, sees the responses and LOVES IT as she continues to shake it! This is followed by a bit of ass-grabbing, more dry-humping, more shimmying, and booty claps. Not to mention a standing ovation and a round of applause from the adults in the room.

This is RIDICULOUS! I mean OUT OF THIS WORLD TYPE SHIT! Like SOMEONE NEEDS TO ACT QUICK type shit! Like I CANT BELIEVE THIS TYPE SHIT type shit.

Who the hell taught this girl how to bump and grind and who the hell taught that little boy how to respond! I mean really, she had her hands on her knees “poppin her pussy“! And I just can not believe my eyes! And fuckin grandma is in the background clapping saying “get it girl!“ as the whole family forms a circle around them and cheers! Like it’s a fuckin super bowl or something! No one in the room even thought it was a problem! I’m just sitting back in my computer chair watching this shit thinking HOW THE HELL DO YOU THINK THIS IS OKAY FOR 5 YEAR OLD SHANEEQUA TO KNOW HOW TO POP HER PUSSY?! HOW IS THAT ACCEPTABLE?! I mean, this girl is giving this boy the business. In a regular situation, the guy would have had a woody by now but then I remembered HIS BALLS HAVN’T EVEN DROPPED YET!

By now I turned off my Carter III. And I realize that maybe that’s what we all need to do. Turn off these songs that only adults and teenagers understand the real meaning of the words to. We know that “lick it like a lollipop” isn’t talking about lollipops. And “I got the magic stick” isn’t talking about magic. But lil Keesha doesn’t and this is what she hears on the radio. This is what she fills her head with. That making love in a club is FINE and that it is A-OKAY for everyone to “know that’s his bust-it-baby” whenever they go around and ask about her. ITS NOT OKAY.

I’m not goin’ on hip-hop, because I’m a proud supporter most times. But this calls for immediate attention because this wasn’t just some random you tube video. This was a legitimate site. The video had WorldStarHipHop.com in the middle of the screen as if they had chose this particular video and stamped it with a link as their sign of approval.

These kids should be learning or playing video games. Not “freakin” which is in reality nothing more than a cheap imitation of sex.

So back to the original question..
.. WHO’S TO BLAME FOR THIS ADULT BEHAVIOR?

The artists.
The radio stations.
Dumbass granny in the back cheering them on.
And everyone else that promotes to kids that this music is for learning from.

The caption in the status right next to the link is very true.
WOWZERS.
Because after watching that, that’s really all I can say.

WORD ON THE STREET
Q: After watching the video, what do you think about it??? Here’s the word on the street.

"i think sex is takin over and kids allowed 2 c too damn much.
if my 6yr old ever popped better den her mother im beatin her ass" -xxDaRealOneManxx

Dear xxDaRealOneManxx,
Lmao! Agreed. But hey, you know what the say… “she get it from her mama” lls!

"omggggggggg they look like they're like 5!
&& i think that its tv and their parents letting them watching it. particularly like music videos.
this is crazyyy!" -SputnikEatsCheese

Dear SputnikEatsCheese,
This is definitely crazy! And you’re right, the parents need to use their parental controls.. Lol or at least the V-Chip!

"i think it was disturbing. . .that little girl danced better than me and i don’t think that’s fair. but it kinda freaked me out that she was like 4 and dancing like she’s like grown or something. idk it was weird for me." -AcidKnee102

Dear AcidKnee102,
I’m sure, it was weird for all of us. Trust me. And yeah.. Makes you ask yourself if the diaper was a bit uncomfortable to dance in lmao! Just kidding!

"well i believe that it clearly depicts the terrible job that some parents do in inner-city America." -bonjour Dan987

Dear bonjour Dan987,
You got that right.Something needs to be done.

"I think that is a really good topic to address because this little girl doesn’t need to know how to be doing this stuff! She’s like 5 and there is no excuse for everyone around her to be clapping along. I don’t know, maybe my parents just raised me better than that." -aLittleLessLethal:)

Dear aLittleLessLethal:),
Our parents raised us to stand up straight… not bend over! Lmao!

Love...Ignore It.....

2008-08-17T10:40:00.002-04:00

Times are good
and then again we all have our bad times.

Love is one of those good or bad things.
When you feel it all you want to do is embrace it.
Trace every line of each moment and not erase it.
I was once in love and believed i found it again.
My elders say I don't know what love is,
But its not what they have.

I thought that if you look forward to the next day
the one before stays longer.
I tried to think of ways to say that
feelings are not always the same.
My last boyfriend said he loved me,
Haha, respect, yeah thats hard to recieve too.

When i met this new one,
He had class and a sex appeal so hard,
so hard that it might hurt to fall.
One mistake and maybe it would end,
and I definitely hoped not.
Something about his presence was my drug.
Light up the incense and candles in the dark
and inhale.
That was my love,
The way he spoke his words
Made me stop talking.

Whenever I spoke....
Interruption...
He'd call me "Beautiful".

So smooth with his words..
Smooth like there were no dips to his past.
He made me feel like I wanted to be part of his future,
Howard graduate.
But only thing about that is,
I follow my heart and my unwritten mind belongs to(me)

Hopefully we will make it through..
Until then,
I'm going to ignore it.

Uyai.....Experience

Changes

2008-08-15T13:19:00.002-04:00

I've dwelled on this subject for about a few months. All these music artist, clothing companies, T.V. shows, and etc are all changing. Their style and nature seems to have took a total 360. For example, the music we hear today definitely doesn't have the same ambience as it did in The Golden Age of hip-hop. Artist personally change their music. For example, Kanye West has switched his style musically and fashion-wise. His beats sound more futuristic then his old orchestrated/soul beats that he had on College Dropout and Late Registration. Another is Common, his next album titled Invincible Summer, slated for a September 23rd release, is not going to consist the introspective Common that we all know and love. The beats are going to sound mure electrified and futuristic, and his lyrics are more....umm...uhh...non-spoken word. Clothing companies such as Nike SB are putting out garbage when it comes to shoes. Their style is changing as well as them putting out new shoes that don't look good. With all that said, we must all know that change is inevitable and we have to accept it. I was listening to 9th Wonder and Murs talk, and 9th Wonder said something that stuck out to me. He said that he heard Bun B say that if you take a child, sit him infront of a T.V. and make him watch nothing but BET or MTV all day, that child would be dumb. Which is true, people must journey different grounds to broaden their talent and thinking. That's why I don't pressure music artist when they don't sound the same as they used to nor do I do the same with clothing companies or T.V. shoes. If Kanye and Common kept doing the same type of beats and music, I don't think I would be interested with as I in them. Now one thing I WILL NOT accept as a change is the Disney Channel. Hell no, the Disney Channel is straight cheesey garbage. I was watching it yesterday, and I just shook my head in shame on how bad these actors are. Same thing with those stupid ass cartoons. If you have to make a spin-off of That's So Raven, then you know they are headed for shambles. Man I want Tailspin, Chip & Dale, Darkwing Duck, and all the rest of those original classics to hit the airwaves. *Sigh*, well people accept change, change for the better. That's a great way of constantly creating.

Magal de Touba Thousands of Muslim Pilgrims Flock to Touba

2008-08-13T09:41:00.004-04:00

"Work on earth as if you will never die and obey the divine rules as if you were going to die immediately", taught 19th century Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba Mbacké of Senegal who established the Islamic Mouride Brotherhood. Today hundreds of thousands of Muslims converge on Touba, the city of Islam founded by Sheikh Mbacké, to mark the 106th anniversary of his exile by the French colonial government.Hundreds of thousands of Muslims from Senegal and abroad have converged on the holy city of Touba, 200 km from Dakar, for the 106th commemoration of the departure of Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba Mbacké into exile.

The founder of the Mouride brotherhood was forced to go in exile in Gabon by colonial rulers on 20 September 1895.

Commonly known as "magal" (pay tribute, celebrate, magnify in the local African Wolof language), the annual religious gathering in Touba, which took place early Saturday, is considered as an occasion for thanksgiving to Allah the Almighty.

"Mouridism" may be defined as an aspiration to Allah the Almighty (Mouridoulahi) in accordance with the prophet's message.

In one of his numerous writings, 'Matlabul Fawzeyni' (the quest for happiness in both worlds), Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba describes the purpose of the city which he founded in 1887. In his concept, Touba should reconcile the spiritual and the temporal.

Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba intended to have the spiritual capital of his brotherhood showing all the characteristics of a Muslim city. The search for knowledge and economic prosperity, in accordance with Mouridism doctrine, are of utmost importance.

In his lifetime, the Sheikh recommended to his disciples "to work on earth as if they will never die and obey the divine rules as if they were going to die immediately".

Touba, which under normal circumstances has a population of one million, is now hosting close to three million pilgrims from all corners of Senegal and neighbouring countries, as well as immigrant workers based in Europe and America.

In the early years of independence, the holy city was a small town in the middle of a dense forest. Today it has all the facilities found in major cities -- banks, telecommunications, water, electricity and, of course, commercial activities.

A special power line was recently installed by the national electricity company to step up supply. Special arrangements were also made to ensure adequate water is available from the city taps.

Confused is My Nature ?

2008-08-07T14:43:00.003-04:00

I noticed that when your young, your voice is always taken . Like as a kid you should only be seen and not heard . My dad constantly tells me " Jasmine, i only listen to what you dont say ." Basically and kinda bluntly he is stating that he doesnt want to hear want to hear what i have to say and that frankly what i say doesnt hold any weight . But yet he wants us to be close and for me to tell him everything thats on my mind . Wtf ! ? This is where i get my fakemeout lack of communication skills from, sometimes . My Dad and i can go on hours and days with just saying only a couple of words to each other . And anytime we do talk its because i am in trouble or he wants me to do something and half of the time he is yelling at me . He comes off as an agressive, offensive, harsh person . Who wants to talk to a person like that ? I hate angry yelling people because it scares me . Ima really sensitive person and if people come to me with negativity, i will break down and cry about it . I dont know how to express my feelings to whatever is going on so its either crying or writting it down in my journal, on a napkin, my skin, the walls in my room . I also think thats why i have a problem with and around people . Me and one of my fellow friends talked about me and my issues . And i believe sometimes my problem goes back to my situations and relationship i have with my dad . For example one time not to long ago i was in McDonalds with Godmother Monique . I hate ordering for myself because i dont like talking to the people behind the courter . Who in the hell does that ? I told the dude what i wanted because i was forced by Monique, i felt nerves like to tell him what i wanted was overbearing Lls . Then he asked the big question (gasp) "What do you want to drink ?" Tell me why i said "What do you have to drink ?" Knowing that i know what they have . Over the courter people scare me ! Lls . Honestly, i cant do everything by myself . Im in my own world sometimes . I dont have selective hearing its just that im so use to being pushed around and used to a certain point, im fine with it abit like a leash . Im kind of handiecap alittle . I know the words "i cant" shouldnt be in my vocabulary but they exist in anyone . There are times where you "cant" do something . But how does a person use "can" in a mind set that is "i cant" ? Is my dad over protecting me ?, Im i sheltered too much ? I go day in and day out trying to find myself...like where my emotions are and how i feel but i come up just confused .

What is wrong with me ?

Just Gathered Thoughts not really put in order
so if you dont understand, sorry about that .
=/

Africa Rising.... Behind the scenes

2008-08-04T16:48:00.002-04:00

Thanks to the posting of a status on Facebook, I was able to join some people through an experience of Supermodels like Alek Wek, Naomi Campbell, who both have legs for days and Tyson Beford fine ass. Africa Rising was to show the beauty of Africa and not the poverty side of it. Joining the show were musicians like John Legend and Jay-Z. To add they are both skinny and yes, Mr. Carter is smaller than they make him seem. But anyway, it started with the press thinking I was one of the models waiting to get hair and make-up. Thanx. But I wish. I'm only 5'5 and thinking in my mind I'm 4 inches taller than that. Back stage where designers, Momo, Deola and Chris Aire. Their clothing had an African essence of every inch of Africa. Chris Aire had jewelry that I know is in the Earth of the First World, not the third; it shined like no other.
That's some real shit right there, because we could not even take a step into that area and help.

So, being star struck is ridiculous, it was just nice to see how they worked. I eventually had to do some work, such as steaming clothes, dressing models who ARE TALLER THAN SIX FEET TWO INCHES and I actually helped with hair. I didn't screw anyone over. I have my cosmetology license. It was a learning experience though. And as much as you all want to be runway models, its fun and jah boring. Okay yeah, they wear these clothes or fabrics worth 425 million dollars, and they are on stage for ten minutes. Whoop-Dee-Doo. Then again, they're getting paid bank. I saw Memphis Bleek .. Okay.. and nothing more to say on him, but he had some broad with him.
Who else, John Legend, I aint see him., but heard he was good.....Ah, after the whole fashion was done.... Jay-Z performed and he was on-the-one. I give him greatest rapper alive.. eh.. Well in today's hip hop... yeah.. he got it.. Lil Wanye.....get on your knees please and bow down...

But overall... I got to do it again... and to my Newlifee101 bloggers.. You can join me..in the future
Somebody make me a star.. lol

If you are living under a rock Lupe Fiasco's The Cool has a hot single Paris Tokyo which is my favorite song on the whole CD. It's battles Gold Watch though because that song goes. But anyways, Paris Tokyo remix is coming soon, it'll be available on New Lifee as soon as it comes out.

Faces In The Hall

2008-08-04T09:32:00.004-04:00

I'm trying to refrain from posting the same topics that's on my blog and here also. It think that's a good tool to expand my thoughts and think of different topics to post. But this album right here really is a movement. Gym Class Heroes second EP, The Papercut Chronicles, has the ability to change lives. This CD takes a turn into the darker sides of life, or maybe Travis' life, and allows everyone to relate to it. Deepression, sadness, anger can all be surpressed in this album. I swear this album really helped me out through this rough summer of mine. But more or less, I wanted to focus on one song that really made my stomach churn, Faces In The Hall. This song is an absolutely powerful song. I really don't want to give out what it is about because I want you all to listen to it. This song really makes us think of the things we say, do, and the people we hang out with. I myself dedicate this song to the ones who hate, put others down, backstab, and etc. It comes to show that our words can really put people to death. Same thing for jealousy and envy, it's all corruptible (<-- I dont even know if that's a word, but you get the idea) feelings. It can put you and other people into a lot of misery. Travis said that after he finished this song, he almost threw up. I sometimes get the same feeling. Either way, we must keep GOD first at times like this because HE always drives us away from self and peer torture. Take a listen and feel enlightened.

Uyai.. A New Spirit to New Lifee101

2008-08-03T11:33:00.002-04:00

Ah, what inspires me eh? My name. Imani it is and it means Faith. then there is my second name in left to right reading order, Uyai, which means Beautiful. This is truly a daily inspiration. Another is every part of the world, music, art, dance and people, well some of them. I can let my insides feel with Neo-Soul music, such as Erykah Badu. Who I wish I had gone to see. Or the Island vibe of reggae or soft serenades of Aya; check her out. But that's only one part. I am the Afro-centric one from God above. I will go to Ghana and celebrate Lifee. I would buy out the whole continent of Africa, if I had money of that range. They have this natural beauty that I always emulate. My style consists of vibrant colors, but dark enough to be cool. A smile of sunshine and a walk of confidence. I am originally from Cleveland, Ohio, also know as poverty city or the Flats. Don't ask, just experience; But I reside in the house on the corner in Wheaton,MD. Close enough to every thing and far enough.I haven't been to New York. Maybe someone can help this situation. lol. Poetry loves me and I love them. It is a man and a woman. Explanation you ask...Well Poet- is the woman of expression.. due to the softness and Try (Tree)- is the man of the night. I am a Virgo, B-day coming soon and the one persuasive lady you want to know at the growing age of nineteen. No Force needed. Lastly, I just left NC, to attended school at Howard; opportunity filled, I'd say. I was in Charlotte enjoying the weather and developing city. But I think more needs to happen down there. So, here I am in the DMV not enjoying being single. Thats another story.

Uyai.... Beautiful

Bluntly Puts: Fuck Fake People

2008-07-29T18:44:00.003-04:00

FUCK FAKE PEOPLE. by Felecia Coleman.

Fuck fake people.

Yeah.

Fuck em.

Everyone is fake now a days
No one is themselves
People would rather stack up seventeen magazines on book shelves
Than to look and find their own style because they’re afraid that they’ll fail
And that’s sad
Because you’ll never get anything accomplished if you’re afraid of getting it wrong
So this is me sayin fuck all fake people
And just a warning, this list is long

So fuck you.

Fuck all you afro centric nigga’s who want to call every black woman you see a “Nubian princess”
Where nothing turbans with Dreds and light nothing but insents
Whole time you the main one sayin “was sup nigga!” to everyone you meet
Knowing that hurt your “Nubian” great grandmother who was a slave so deep

Deep.

Fuck all you bitches who want to be all deep and go to poetry slams
Knowing damn well you wont understand
But comment and wave your hand and say shit like “wow man that moved me”
Just because you thought it looked cool in a fucking Love Jones movie

Movie.

Fuck all yall nigga’s who want to rock vintage T’s and only watch independent movies.
When your face book top 3 movies are Don’t be a Menace, Friday, and Blue Streak.

Fuck all you hoochies who all of a sudden want to be classy
Like you can put a dress on a hoe and it’ll slide right past me..

Pass me.

Fuck all you nigga’s who just pass me. When I hung out with you last week
And we on the same got damned street
And u aint even gonna speak.

Speak.

Fuck all yall nigga’s who all yall want to do is speak.
And give speeches.
About how the government is sucking us for all our money like leaches
Yall who carry around big ol’ books like Da’Vinci Code
But in the end
The name on the book is really just irrelevant
You just need something to carry around so you can look more intelligent

Fuck all you teachers who don’t realize yall in charge of young minds and don’t give a fuck what you teach
And fuck all yall preachers who do wrong but next Sunday be quick to tell people to “practice what you preach”

People are confused and think new and improved is always better than the original version
So you flood your mind with image consultants but you drown in the immersion.

Immersion.
Ralph Emerson said that imitation is suicide
And from where I reside
Its starting to seem like I’m the only one that’s still alive.

And I know I’m rambling on
And I warned you that this list was long
But I just have to say fuck all fake people
And I would put this in a song
But its already been done
And I don’t really care to be anything after number one
I’m sorry, I'm sorry if I don’t find being fake and saying I’m the first much fun.

So
fuck yall
Because I aint trying to live in a world filled with robots, manikins and clones.

Where anything and everything in uniform goes
Where we all wear the same clothes
And strike the same pose
Because if we all are in the shadow of everyone else then no one truly glows.

So all I’m saying is if yall really tryna grow and get out your robot steal
We cant steel everyone else style because one idea aint always ideal
And if we all try and be different and we all aiming for surreal
Then soon
Everyone is going to turn into nothing but unreal people

People.

Man, fuck all fake people.
And that’s MY, not someone I heard on the radio, not somethig i saw on Tyra, not something I read in a seventeen magazine, but MY.
that’s MY final appeal.
So to all yall who trying to smash that ongoing continuous copy cat wheel
I got two words for you

Be and Real.

Not trill
But real.

-stay blunt

The Mind Of Lyriciss

2008-07-29T12:35:00.004-04:00

Hello, world. Ain't that what everybody's been saying since Wayne dropped the "Show Me What U Got" freestyle a year ago? Blah @ that. Anyway, I've been blessed to enough to do a guest blog on the New Lifee situational thingy-thing-thing. So first off, my name is Lyriciss, aka Lyriciss Flowz, aka The Voice Of The Metro aka The Hope aka Too Many aka's Will Make You Look Effin' Wack. I am a young hip-hop artist out of the DMV...DC metro area...DC, Maryland, and Virginia...the Middle East...however you want to say that, that's where I'm from. If you can't tell, my mind is a rambling one. That being said, I tried to think of a concept for the blog, then I figured, "well...if the blog is MY blog...it should be a rambling one that relates to me." That being said, I just read HipHopDX (Amanda Bassa, what up?), and they had their "WTFs" and all of that. So I'm going to steal that concept and ramble about 10 things that make me say "WTF". Cool? Cool. Bong.

1.) WTF at the multicolored skinny jeans. Well , on men. That goes for deep V-necks too, especially if you got more chest hair than Chuck Norris.

2.) WTF @ Gucci Mane. Rhymes, gold teeth, black skin x white lips, all of it. Just WTF.

3.) WTF @ my daughter getting her diaper changed and filling it back up in 2 minutes and 30 seconds.

4.) WTF @ this new Soulja Boy and Bow Wow song. And as usual in his career, Bow Wow is on the short end of this stick (pause, no homo, or whatever these young bammas are saying nowadays). How so? Soulja Boy is expected to make a song like that. Bow Wow, while expected to be wack...that was a new low for even him.

5.) WTF @ these police checkpoints in the city. Holocaust '08?

6.) WTF @ Bill O' Reilly. Dude...give it up. No one cares about your opinion. Aren't you the same pervert that sexually harasses female coworkers AND you're married? How the hell are you going to give criticism on sexual lyrics in hip-hop?

7.) WTF @ Fox News Channel. Fuck them. Nothing more to say on that.

8.) WTF @ Jesse Jackson. You're the black Bill O' Reilly. Fuck out of here and go back to chasing loose women, you false prophet.

9.) WTF @ sheepskin condoms. Never used them, but just the idea of it. Who sat down and said "yeah, sheepskin is proper material for a penis. Sure, it doesnt protect you from STDs and has a lower consistency on preventing pregnancy than conventional latex condoms, but hey, if you ever want a higher-risk condom, here it is!"

10.) WTF @ the terms "hipster rap" and "backpack rap". Damn, rappers can't just be fresh and be lyrically dope too? Bammas have to be straight A college students on honor roll to spit a little positivity? We're lost out here, joe.

...and that's the conclusion. Wanted something more monumental? Sorry...AA batteries not included. Anyway, if you want to catch more of my blogging, hit my personal blog. Want to check out the music? Hit my MySpace. And hopefully, I'll be dropping in on the New Lifee 101 blog much more often.

Peace & Hip-Hop

2008-07-21T17:57:00.010-04:00

Yo! uhmm, I guess im introducing myself for right now .
Hi! BlogWorld im Jasmine Mary [formally] but most just
call me Grandma, of course its alittle weird to call a girl
thats not your Gma, Gma but you'll get use to it . Lmao !

MyNewLifee

Something to Put On the Brain...

I've watched my Mother and she inspires me like no other Woman .
I could say Beyonce and the whole nine but for some reason this woman
has gone through the worst of all time and still looks back at life with a smile
like nothings wrong .
Raising 3 kids, is work !
Me, My Brother Jason (7), and My Sister Jordin (3) .
My brother and my sisters Fathers are not around .
Jason's Father is a Crack fiend
and Jordin's Father doesnt care .
Then there is my Father...the only one thats really supporting me .
sometimes i say to myself "Im i somehow living a better life because i have a Father figure ?"
I dont know.
Well, anyways this poem
is my way of speaking for my brother .
to inform my Mother that when she gets older
we are going to give her what she never had .
And also for the boys with just a Mother .

Momma never told me more then twice
See my Momma would tell me all the time...
"You deserve all the things in the world!"
Like Black Diamonds and Pearls?Imma Rule the World!
Dont get ahead of yourself because things dont come easy
I want you to take your time
Your success will come like fine wine.
That One talk turned my life into a Journey to find out who i really was
and what i can become in this rapidly changing society.
No longer being a boy...But becoming what my Mother needed in the House
which was a man.
You know she never got anything out of life.
She use to say life took what i wanted from me
I was too lost to know that it was gone..
I dont want to be nor do i need negativity
I am a man...
a full grown man...
A Revolutionary & Visionary
I will not back down from any opportunity
because no one is bigger then i can handle.
I promised my Mother
Black Diamonds and Pearls
Because the ones that are Lost
need to know how it feels
to be ruling the World!

-To my twin brother Dolce.and my Younger brother Jason D. Bailey
and of course my new men of this year.

2008-07-21T15:44:00.003-04:00

So I had the ultimate pleasure of seeing The Dark Knight last night. This has got to be by far one of the greatest movies I have ever seen in my life. I am not a big movie person, and it really takes alot for me to consider a movie to be great. The movie right here seriously pushes the envelope. In my opinion, the crown goes to Heath Ledger as The Joker. There have been many talks about his role as The Joker, it's safe to say he murdered it. Ledger could do this role around Jack Nicholson for decades. This man locked himself in his hotel room for a month to get this role right. The eerieness, the psychopathity (if that's a word), the laughter, the darkness, mixed with comedy. I honestly started to get scared of the character myself as the movie progressed. Ledger caught every nook and cranny of the lifestyle of The Joker, and beefed it up to a rough and tough psychopath that seemed to be a total new character. My whole outlook on The Joker changed from an annoying nuisance, to one of the scariest villains the super-hero world could ever deal with. The whole time it seemed like this is how he actually lived. R.I.P to his soul, but just know that he left this world with a bang. I urge you to see this movie if you haven't, I am already planning on the next 3 times I am going to go see it.

New Lifee 101...Chapter..New Book: Love & Basketball by: Liz J

2008-07-15T05:17:00.013-04:00

Usher: Lifetime

"Some only call it a life for a season and stay around to give you a reason and to put in your every thing to think its forever…but you’ve given me someone that I can believe it I know there will be times we can’t come to an agreement but I know that we’ll figure out the ups and downs. Tell me are you willing to take a chance? Baby if so… Here we go, let me put you in my hand, come on I wanna be your man Lets do it right, so that you’ll be with me a lifetime..."

Your like, perfection.

Irony is sceptical..., its more like, the destiny neither of us give truth to but, admit, its presence appear strong and powerful

...Elijah.....I want to let you know that, everything that happens between the two of us is as REAL as REALity gets. I feel like, there is something that's, holding you back...something that doesn't want you to give into me..
I'm so different from you, but...we are exactly the same. I want you to..let go, just give into the Lifee I have to offer you......

My intentions are to do nothing but Love you. To offer you a New Lifee that you can access the secrets of the world through. I want to open your hands and sit the universe in them, our universe, my world, and let you rotate it until you feel comfortable with its rhythm, because it matches the rhythm of what gives you Lifee, of what allows you to breath, and live, and ...Love...me....

If a Lifetime is all the time I have to spend with you, I feel like Lifee is robbing me...but to me Time is irrelevant and as long as we are together Time is limitless and Lifee is continuous...

Your motivation is my fuel, so without you I wont be able to keep going...and I can't quit anytime soon, I have to offer you the world first...and since the world is constantly creating and constantly producing and constantly progressing and constantly giving, ...

...we have no choice but to keep going, for
as long as "ever" will give us..

I love you because your so vulnerable but your still a man, so your pride gets the best of you...TRUST me, I don't want to take advantage of anything except for what you have to offer me....Insight, Love, New Lifee....You offer me HOPE Elijah, you offer me comfort....I BELIEVE in a future with you....I believe in YOU..

I am you....

I love to see you cry....it makes you beautiful...your beautiful to me...your a mirror image of my soul, and listening to you understanding you is like past due meditation for me...You complete me in every sense of the word...I've saved you from your environment and... in return I ask that you never give up.,. Your a triangle..Your a leader......well, lead our New Lifee in the right direction....Baby you have no where to go but up, to reach the peak of your existence, and I feel so...lucky...to be a side of your triangle....Like, you help to complete my circle, and you help me to continue to rotate and evolve.

Walking out of my Lifee would be like, walking away from yourself, and I think you have more to offer then you've been giving. Not just to me, and the world, but to yourself... Your Elijah.....Your the other E end of my New Lifee, not to say that my Lifee is ending, because you've proved that New Lifee is constantly creating, constantly evolving, constantly producing.....Your the reason why my Lifee will continue...

Thank you for Trusting me Elijah, I promise you, I have already grasped the world in my palms and i'm ready to release it into yours. I am here for you...I am HERE for you....Destiny?....Destiny exists because you give it meaning.

I love you Elijah. Your the E that ends and begins my New Lifee....Your my purpose, and I appreciate you. I believe in you. Your going to make me very proud....more proud then I already am...Your the perfect addition to my Lifee ... my future...

your my shooting STAR

"reach for the stars, so if you fall you land on the clouds"---Kanye West

I now pronounce you.....

---Elizabeth J

I AM.

2008-07-14T20:30:00.002-04:00

a product of my environment.new pair of eyes to the blind.new set of ears to the deaf.a helping hand to the amputated.a voice box for the muted.a cuss word for the censored.the truth to every lie.the cataract in Satan's eye.a life that you never thought you could live.the world's most unusual.

I AM.

joshua[slick]

or slick for short

My name is Joshua Wood, slick to some (hence the joshua[slick]). I'm up on deck with New Lifee 101 introducing to you.....a New Lifee. What is a New Lifee? What are you going to seek? What are your motives to seek what ever it is? Will you love or hate? Will you be rich or poor? Will you be happy or sad? Honestly, the world is in need of a New Lifee and we live in this world. With all seriousness 99.9% of us need a New Lifee, a shift in focus. With that said, the answers to the previous questions shouldn't be hard to find. Challenging every lobe that rest is your pulsating brain is what I love to do. Don't feel threatened feel enlightened, because I bring facts, not personal fiction. Don't be scared to throw apples at Isaac Newton, feel free to smile. I'm no police, I just like to live freely along with the rest of my friends. I enjoy blogging my own thoughts:www.juhstys.blogspot.com, that's where a little more of me will be found. I'm happy to team up with Liz in this movement, I'm trying to set this world on fire (metaphorically). About me, I love GOD with all of my heart, he comes before any and every move I make. I love girls, video games, shoes, MUSIC is my savious, peace, snapples, summer, I am a gemini, i like to draw even though I'm not good at it, and I like to ring people door bells and run. I am still a kid at heart, trust and believe I may never grow up. Which is half the reason why you all will love me. c.h.u.c.h.

BluntlyPuts: TITTS AND DICKS ON PICS

2008-07-14T09:09:00.003-04:00

TITTS AND DICKS ON PICS. by Felecia Coleman.

So I’m getting dressed on another regular school day filled with detention, nurse visits, and horny teenagers when I heard the most irregular shit on the radio. On the Cain show (99.5), I turn my radio up to make sure what I thought was said was actually said and yes. IT WAS.

"Studies are showing that parents should get used to nude picture messaging as apart of teen dating."

My initial reaction was disbelief but after a while it turned into total agreement. After all, we do live in a world where actual talent is the first way in the entertainment business and a sex tape is the 2nd. Even though occasionally, sex tapes substitute for cocaine as a fallen TV star from the 90's, heirs, or all-around-nobody's way of getting back in the business. ex: Kim Kardashian, Brittney Spears, Paris Hilton, and not to mention SCREECH POWERS.

But I mean seriously, "apart of teen dating"? So the list goes... kissing, flirting, touching, holding hands, and OH YEAH MINOR PORNOGRAPHY. I mean it just doesn’t make sense even though the reality is greater than ever. Ladies, how stupid can you be? do u honestly not believe that your picture’s going to get shown and every single guy in the locker-room/ Spanish class/ football field is going to get a personal peep show of your plump-ones? That pic is so going to get passed around like weed and yes everyone's going to get a hit.

And guys, you may be packin, you may be lackin, who am I to judge? But either way, I know for a fact that girls look at every detail in that picture you send AND COMMENT to their friends. Whether it be "OMG! HAHAHA look at the 1990 windows computer in the background" or "OMG YUCK HIS PUBES ARE SO FUCKING CURLY! HAHAHA!".

And honestly, I mean I guess you sending me a pic of u grasping your mandigo is "sexy", but it gets old quick. and I swear ta god, if I get one more dick pic I’m going to go gay. JK but I will go APESHIT.

Quite frankly, I fear for our futures. really, I do. If nude photo's are the newest most coolest thing as teenagers, I wonder what’s going to be all the rave when we're 18? 21? even 30? We should all be scared... nail biting.. teeth clinching… shakin like a stripper or something this could potentially be serious. This is becoming an EPIDEMIC.

Readers, girls these days are RUTHLESS. I’m talking OD on OC (overdosed on outa control). I mean, teens, can we keep our privates in our pants for 2 seconds?

I hate to blame the music but maybe it really does have an effect on us...DMV, trust me I know we're all gogo heads but do we really have to live our lives through the lyrics "can you take a picture for my camera phone.... she's a camera phone freak yeah" or even "she's a freak and I love it baby" or even "she's a freak if she wanna roll with me?" is this where we get our encouraging and inspiring words?

Well how about these for inspirational words: GUYS give us a break. some girls are pressured by the question "how about you send me something in return babyyyyyyyyy" and please if your going to do it, at least clean up your room a little. GALS don’t get used.
After all, your body is a temple....
Not a public toilet :)

-bluntly put. Felecia Coleman

WORD ON THE STREET
Q: From both experience and the “word on the street”, I know that sometimes nude pictures can get crazy. (as if pornography isn’t out there enough, right!) So the question for this week is WHATS THE CRAZIEST PIC YOU’VE EVER GOTTEN? Here’s the word on the street.

“So im dating this guy and I soon find out that his brother likes me too. Even though im not interested at all. So one random ass night at one in the morning his bro sends me this picture of him like seriously on the hard and im just like “WTF! Why would you send me all this crap!?” I found it INSULTING.” -xxSheCuss2Muchxx

Dear xxSheCuss2Much,
I understand your way of taking it as insulting. Its does say a lot about you as a woman. But on the other hand, if the bro is “abundant”, I say you go smack at him. And your boyfriend. Might as well kill two birds with one stone.. One HARD stone that is! Lmao. Just kidding of course!- Felecia Coleman

“The craziest dick pic I got was funny. The guy actually had a bandaid on it!!! Lmao!” -aLittleLessLethal :)

Dear aLittleLessLethal,
Wow! I can only image how that even happened… -Felecia Coleman

“Craziest pic? The boy was sooo skinny. Like IN EVERY ASPECT. I laughed lol and then I just changed the subject to him like I never even got the picture” -$$TotalPackage:Ass,Men,Money$$

Dear $$TotalPackage:Ass,Men,Money$$,
Smart move. Aw he must have been so offended…well.. We know who got the “short end of the stick” if you know what I mean. haha. -Felecia Coleman

“Okay, so I got these pictures and like she looks like a good little girl but she’s nasty. So she sent me all these nude pics and I’ve never actually seen like a real white girls tits and ass except on tv (lol) but she sent em to me and I thought it was soooo funny because there was no ass in her thong and she was perfectly shaved. It was just hilarious to me… That had to be the most craziest picture.. and her little messy ponytail haha! It was just a mess.” -RobyourGirl

Dear RobyourGirl,
That is soo tough. It sounds like “a mess” lol. Uhm.. How about next time (if u must receive/send/ask for), you send requirements like **NO MESSY PONYTAILS**. Lol at least inform… lol. -Felecia Coleman

“Well it was me and my friend at the movies and this random guy just comes and sits between us and whips it out. It was sooo random! Then he takes my phone.. And takes a picture of it RIGHT THEN AND THERE! It was soo outrageous! !”-JazzMenTurnMeOn

Dear JazzMenTurnMeOn,
Omg seriously? Like.. that’s OD on OC ridiculous. Guys these days are getting bolder! I mean did he expect u to save it as your screensaver or something. I mean sheesh!! That’s by far THE CRAZIEST I’ve heard in a good while. Like omg, you’re in a certain thing called PUBLIC. And no one wants to see your PUBICS in PUBLIC, okayyyyyyy! lol - Felecia Coleman

“Hmmm. Craziest.. Well, this girl actually put cups on her boobs! Swear!”- ^^Dare Elevator^^

Dear ^^Dare Elevator^^,
Lmao! Omg! Well.. Uhm… I guess she wanted you to “serve her up”! -Felecia Coleman

-stay blunt-

Stop The Violence!!!

2008-07-14T00:24:00.003-04:00

First off

Shout out to my brovas at Team Major

TJ, Moe, and Jordan, Adam

My niggas since the swingset

It's currently July 14, 2008 12:20 a.m.

Approx. 2 hours and 46 minutes since the party at Ibiza

I had, i guess, a substantial amount of fun

Aside from the bitch ass security guards

Tons of stankin' ass people trying to cut in front of me

And my damp/trodden-on Appetite's

It was one kick ass party!

I'm truly proud to see my brovas growing up

Okay, it was a Team Major party. Shit you can assume: 1. Long ass line. 2. Fakin' ass females. 3. My man getting me in free (shout-out to Bankhead) 4. And the usual suspects (Yayo + Cloud 9, Tay, Nate, etc from Uptown, J Kidd and 1-8 Zone) actin' a damn fool! Love all y'all! Well yeah. Like I said, aside from the rain, security, and lack of female-to-male interaction...oh and the 7 min. Boosie performance; party was wayyyy on point! Team Swagg, Top Notch, all the hood stars did their thing respectively. And Big John was ji on point, so the musical selection wasn't anything to complain about. So ummm...I guess this is where I express my grievance. Ahhh yes. The fight.

As myself, and a couple other people made our way towards the Wendy's, i had my mind on a...idk i was just hungry as shit lol. So, after ordering my #2 with a medium coke, we proceeded to our seats. One of our friends was kind of in a rush to beat everyone coming from the club, but it seemed like only seconds later when I could only make out silhouettes of people racing past the window. Like, four, five females. No offense but sometimes girls are so weird I didn't think too much of it. Nobody did, until "whispers" (you know how that goes) of a fight could be heard from out table. So we're looking at each other like, oh surprise, another fight right? Until...the dudes involved came into the Wendy's. Let me stop right here. Because as we speak, the details and everything are unraveling...so I'm gonna do everyone a favor and shut up about everything.

Well, i could go on and say stop the violence, ban together, listen to "We Are The World", etc. But sadly, that shit won't help. I mean, the people that know me, know that I don't care about little disagreements or beefs. And it might be cliche', but if all 'hoods, crews, gangs could keep the peace, I wouldn't want anything more. I understand that some of y'all are too deep in it. And that this way may be the only way. And if I could I would sit down with everybody and just talk. Like forreal. Talking about like, the Rwanda genocide, women and children that don't have rights in the Middle-East, it wouldn't matter. Most of y'all could give a fuck about it. And honestly, sometimes so could I. But when you look at shit like that. You realize that things could be way worse. I'm done for now pimp. Stop the violence. Please.

NaS...Pressure Busts Pipes

2008-07-11T01:50:00.003-04:00

This song Hero, it makes me remember why NaS is my favorite rapper of all time. NaS knows who he is. He is always spitting true shit,real shit, Lifee as it appears to the people, to the common man, nothing surreal or to "fabolous"....

This song is crazy as well....BLACK PRESIDENT, the Obama sample, NaS....he does what he wants.... and i love it....he never seems to lose sense of who he is! Nasir Jones.....Jones...

How come this album is no longer called Nigger?

Hip Hop News
Nas: "Everybody is trying to stop the title," Nas stated. "Record stores are gonna have a problem in this day and time selling a record with that title. Who knows what's gonna turn out and be on that title? Who knows what that title will be?"
Apparently, the phrase "pressure busts pipes" has finally reared its head and the controversial title has finally been changed.

I think NaS is very consistant with his music. He keep up with the times, he seems very vocal in politics and the economy and the highlights and low points in his own community. NaS is one of the greatest, if not THE greatest rapper of all time......

Nasir bin Olu Dara Jones

You can't keep up with the Joneses!!

So this is pic had been taken when we got back to Goree island which is probably the area's favorite and most famous tourist attraction. One of the most frequently visited sites is the Maison des Esclaves (Slave House), a poignant reminder of Goreé's role as the center of West African slave trade. Built by the Dutch in 1776, the slave house has been preserved in its original state.

Fuck The Police!

2008-07-06T00:33:00.004-04:00

Ok, before I start my rant on our beloved figures of authority

let me say that I totally realize that there are the very good few of you

that actually attempt to do well on the job

the others, well...

FUCK YOU

So, the story starts on the evening of July 4, 2008, at about 9:45 p.m. As the itis (lol) began to set-in from my Jack Daniel's Steak Strip & Shrimp ($14.95 pretty good) from Friday's twenty minutes ago, myself along with a few other friends, made our way to the Foggy Bottom station. Being only a couple hundred feet away from the station, I could already make out a sea of what seemed to be thousands of fuckin' people! Since this wasn't the first time everyone decided to be a "regular person" for a holiday, i knew this could either end up: very bad, or...very bad. At times, even locals can tend to behave like fuckin' tourists on days like this. So, after about 5 good minutes of manuvering thru the crowd and witnessing a series of obese people almost bustin' their asses, i finally found myself at the farecard machines. Smartrip in hand, I was ready to board that good ol' Blue Line (Mixtape at a URL near you this Fall), and get to B's house in a timely manner. Surprisingly, wow, it wasn't that easy.

As soon as the rent-a-cop-ass security guard mugged on B (at my disapproval of course), i realized that any authority figure to approach us wrong would be susceptable to my aggression. *Side Note: if you don't know me, i can turn really pissy off of people doing the dumbest shit*. Which was about to happen. Me being the anti-social nigga i was at the moment, I had my headphones on, watching B twirl that fuckin' umbrella for the umpteenth time (lol i love you son!). I SAW THE TRAIN COMING! I SAW IT! I don't care if it wasn't ours, but this fuckin' slut-ass-bitch-ass-fake-ass-fugly-ass idk what the fuck he was, let's call him a security guard. Well, he goes out of his way to first: 1. Yell in my ear about stepping back (i guess he didn't like how i took my time because) 2. This bitch prodded me!, didn't even touch, poke, graze, rub; no, prodded me like a fucking cow or something, and then caught an attitude. It was bad enough he confronted me the way he did, but touching me period is a fucking no-no.

He got an attitude once again when I told him not to touch me. "What?". "Don't touch me you heard what I said." I got a lot of complaints so stay tuned. But yeah, ummm, he threatened to get me put out? Some other shit, etc etc. In actuality, I know nothing could be done to me, even by the real police. So, being me, I maintained my cool. I mean, I say all this shit to say (with my aforementioned umm i guess disclaimer in mind), FUCK THE POLICE. I do have a couple people in my family on the force, but they do their fuckin' jobs. They don't dick people every chance they get. I am fully aware that the purpose of cops are to have more authority than the average person, and this is SUPPOSED to HELP people. But it's evident that, a 30-year-old security guards or a cop who was a victim of childhood abuse of some sort feels it's necessary to overexert their power and take out their frustrations on people like me. No matter how many Constitutional Law classes I've taken, or how many times I'll be "in the right" in the near future. Those bitchass ho-ass dirty PIGS ALWAYS WIN. Once again, I respect and even look up to those who do the right things with their power, but for those who don't, once again. FUCK YOU. I def have a lot more to say, but ummm, I'm sure ur tired of reading. Sooooo until next time. =)

Go Skate Day!! Freedom Plaza

2008-07-03T10:10:00.007-04:00

Go Skate Day in Washington, DC

Location, Freedom Plaza...

Yo Go skate day this year was crazy! This was the first year I can a skate team there, Grind Lifee Skate, so for me it was even cooler!!!

When you could hear all the wheels carrying drained skaters from half way across DC to Freedom Plaza, you knew you were about to be engulfed by over 200 skaters from all over the DMV area, followed by a handful of skimpy model girls passing out redbulls.

A few skaters stood out, landing kickflips up stairs, 4'11 kids hitting kickflips off a 5ft ledge (total exaggeration,lls), and ppl doing manuals for 2 yards.

Massai, 17

This dude hit boneless after boneless over a trashcan until he knew I had a shot I could blog about....

Julian M.

This guy was catching crazii air off this ledge......did he land it?

This year was crazii...next year, Grind Lifee Tee's and stickers for your boards!! Oh..is..is that a Grind Lifee/New Lifee 101 deck??....I..I think so.....hmmmmmmmmm....

Wall.e rated G?

2008-07-02T22:04:00.003-04:00

So I saw the movie wall.e with my little brother and sister today and I must say it was very good. The colors and images were good to entrance the children but the message was actually to the parents. The idea of the and base of the movie is a very complex one which is about capitalism, corrupt government, and reliance on artificial intelligence. It was also very depressing (but arent all disney movies ie. Nemo). In this movie, this company called Buy-n-Large Basically monopolized the whole world and there was so much waste, humans werent able to live on earth. They left these little robots to consolidate the waste but they all broke execept one wall.e. He develops a personality falls in love with a special pod-bot that was sent to see if there was sustainable life on earth. Wall.e gives her a plant he found, she's picked up by the big ship, they fall in love and its a race back to earth. But the corrupt government programs the ship to never return to earth so it because a fight between man and machine. Great movie. You should go see it. But beware.. the future in this movie is eerily realistic. very I am Legend like. Enjoy... yoyolove.

Dont buy in, u SELL OUTS!

2008-07-01T12:42:00.003-04:00

So.....I was listening to a super old Gym Class Heroes cd the other day(back when they were still hungry), and it was this line Travis said that really stuck out to me. He said, "Fuck mass apeal, art is art!". Short and simple, right? Now I'm sure you're thinking.......why are you listening to gym class heroes?LOL.I like their music, so what! Anyway, when I heard what he said, I mean really heard it, wit my brain and not my ears..............it really stuck to me.

Which brings me to todays point.......*And Please Excuse Me, But It Must Be Sed.......DONT BUY IN, YOU FUCKIN SELL OUTS!Ahhhhhhh(sigh of relief). Im sorry, well.......no im not. With mass apeal the way it is now, art isn't even art anymore. It's infecting everybody. Writing, Music, Visual Art, Theatre, Fashion, etc. Wake up people! What ever happened to you reading what you wanna read, listening to what you wanna hear, and most of all wearing what you wanna wear?...Because you like it not because everyone else does! Todays homework is go listen to some music, or look at some art, or read a Fuckin book.........but whatever you doin, do it because you like it and it iterests YOU!Peace~ Seace A.K.A. the one and only geek sneaker-freak

Allow Me, To Introduce Me!

2008-06-27T14:38:00.008-04:00

Ok, ummm
seeing as how i told Liz i would write some blogs...decades ago?
i figured why not now? She did say it could be about anythinggg. So here i go

I guess you can refer to me as "Free". I like it.

Caution!: Contains profane language! Done so to convey my thoughts in a strong, yet informative matter. I will, however, censor the "n-word" for Reggie lol.

You'll love it, im sure.

So, a couple of days ago, im sure many of you know that the ban on gun ownership was lifted in the Washington, DC area. Consequently, it had me thinking about all the things that could follow, and a bunch of muthafuckas i hold grudges against. When i say that, I don't mean, someone per say, more like a group that represents one. You'll get it soon enough. Well yeah i saw on someone's Facebook status something like, "DC gun ban lifted??? it's gon' be a crazy summa!!!"; which is really fuckin sad. Because, it's ultimately true. I forgot who said it, it was on the radio or something, but they said they had a hard enough time getting guns off the street WITH the ban; so as you can imagine, who knows what crime DC is susceptable to now. I mean, i know plently of KIDS that own guns (for whatever reason), so i know better than anyone that making weapons that much more available could harbor tragic results.

Then, while thinking of that, that shit had me thinking about the youth. PSA: kids are fucking up, and even n****s my age don't seem to want to help. Even stooping to that level! The fuck? I know. And if you don't find that disturbing, that a 17, 18-year-old doesn't have their shit together, it's something wrong with you. I mean, im still young right, and i don't know EVERYTHING there is to know, but thank GOD that n****s around me have tried to help. And these are people with real problems. They've been molested, abused, shot, poor, parents on drugs, raised in the projects, etc etc. And it's a relief that they want to do right by helping me out. That's what we need more of. And Maryland, i really don't mean to get on y'all, but wtf. No offense, but i remember going out to Landover and Largo all the time a few years ago, with nothing to be scared of. All of a sudden, a n****a grow some dreads, and get a new Lil Wayne mixtape and he goes hard? NO DISREPSECT, because believe me i know for a fact that not all y'all fake like that. I realize that there's poverty and crime everywhere, especially in Maryland. But fuck, i don't appreciate the n****s that live in the suburbs, have a nice home with both parents, even some of y'all have cleaning ladies. But you step in Thai Seafood, and all of a sudden you a "savage" or a such-and-such hunnie. Bitch please. YOU AIN'T SHIT! Pardon my ignorance, but it only makes a mockery of BLACK PEOPLE. Especially black people. The ones who really don't have a choice but to carry guns in their own homes, or fend for their siblings because their parents are strung the fuck out! You don't get that?! That's a real gangsta. Not twisting his fingers up in a go-go, or getting your dreads re-twisted because you on your "08" shit. N****A FUCK YOUR 08 SHIT! Be a man/woman about yours. Stop fooling yourself. Then i see gangs get into the picture. Like, people want to start Crip and Blood gangs in the metropolitan area. You muthafuckas are so ignorant! I'm not even gonna get into it, but ima say one thing. Why? More than 95% of you don't know the history or purpose of gangs. Hoods aren't enough? I can't act like I don't tell people I'm from Sherwood area etc etc. But gangs just divide our people even more. I mean, both my brothers old as shit, like in their 30's, with kids, careers, etc. But even on the weekends they back at Edgewood on the blocks, smoking Blacks. They realize that while they're true to where they come from, there is more to life. Not just DC, LIFE. As my man Yayo would say, "im thinking long-term. These niggas thinkin' "trees", and I'm thinkin' palm trees." It just doesn't make sense how a lot of you don't make the most of these opportunities you have. Granted, a lot of you are still in the 'hood, there are still more chances for you to do great things. I believe in my people. My DC, Maryland, and Virginia n****s. It's up to you to decide. I just needed to vent. This probably won't be the end of this argument, but yeah. Im an ordinary person. Not a hoodstar, or a nerd, whatever other people there are trying to be these days lol. I'm just me. And you shouldbe thankful, because most people can't even be them to begin with.

LOVE

The American Flag is Singing....History

MSNBC

WASHINGTON - Hillary Rodham Clinton suspended her historic campaign for the presidency on Saturday, declaring her full support for Barack Obama.
"I endorse him and throw my full support behind him," Clinton said.
Clinton urged her supporters to rally behind her ex-rival, a show of support Democrats hope will help heal a party fractured by a bitter battle for the presidential nomination. As the former first lady ended her quest to become the first female U.S. president, her husband, former President Bill Clinton, her daughter and mother were by her side. Obama secured the 2,118 delegates needed to clinch the Democratic presidential nomination Tuesday after primaries in South Dakota and Montana. He planned to spend the weekend at his home in Chicago. "I have said throughout the campaign that I would strongly support Senator Obama if he were the Democratic Party's nominee and I intend to deliver on that promise," Clinton told supporters in an online message late this week.

__________________________________________________________________

I am so happy to be alive and breathing and fully conscious on the day a woman is standing at the podium, with thousands of people standing around her, cheering, yelling, holding up signs, crying tears of joy and relief, women, feeling a sense of hope, feeling a sense of instant overwhelming support...

This is a wonderful feeling. Being able to look back in the history books that show the harsh brutality of my ancestors, being beat and broken for hundreds of years....now, one of our own is sitting at home, or in his office, watching a white woman, hand over her full support, pleading for her supporters to back him in his fight for office....the times are changing..and he sees it, she knows it....CHANGE WE CAN SEE

Hillary Clinton has my respect
Barrack Obama has my vote.

To hear Hillary Clinton say she supports Barack Obama, means...so much...to people all over the world....It means so much, to everyone effected by generations of discrimination, women, african americans, black men, white women. Affirmative Action, Racism.....

Its time for a change.

YAY!!!

What do you think is going to be the outcome of this election?

An African American president?

A possible female president??

What does this mean for the progression of America....How could we...no..WHY would we want to take steps backwards.....

Song Lyrics

NaS...

A lyrical genius. From Illmatic to Hip Hop is Dead. Constantly creating ill metaphors, and mad imagery, taking his fans and haters on journeys through the streets of New York, through the slums and projects, apartments-liquor stores-shoot outs-steak outs, and through his Dreams of ruling the world-getting married-dancing with his mother. NaS raps over history and legend as his father plays trumpet as he ties together Hip Hop & Jazz & Blues. NaS

A story teller...spittin the history of one of Hip Hops greatest Rakim Allah; spittin one of hip hops greatest track One Mic- and exposing the cause of its Death through an animated-illusion..where he tells us the course of actions that led to Who Killed It?.....right after collabing with one of his once enemies Jay-Z on one of the best collabo-Oxymor-onic- tracks of the year...Black Republican

Nigger...a word that holds the emotions of an entire race of people in every crack-corner-loop-and circle of its letters...a word that denounced the African race as a whole and today remains on of the most unspoken talked about words.

This word has been used and abused just as the people it insults-degrades-tears down. This word has been band-abandoned-burried........and now resurfaced in one of the african american cultures most prized possession...music-hip hop music-rap music-spoken word-lyrics.
