and my lyrics go over n-ggas heads like a new era brim

better than yours x marketing pop culture…shout to rob, and look for great things from his site in the future.

First and foremost, shout out to Newark, NJ for keeping it very real the past 4.5 days I was up there. Jersey n-ggas are most definitely the craziest. I liked it up there though, and I’m actually trying to jump into some property up there.

So if theres less 9th Wonder on the new Little Brother album does that mean it’ll be better than The Minstrel Show?

The Pathology of Gilbert Arenas…dude is definitely…an individual. Excellent read if I must say so.

The Game feat Will i Am - Compton….Games album is gonna be aiight y’all, don’t hate sleep.

Did anyone grab the new Amerie mixtape? Yes I’m serious people, I’m interested in hearing her over Money In The Bank.

Biggies murder is insignificant????

rockin lizard ballys while we do a drug deal in a dark alley

Barack Obama swung thru Arizona on Monday and had the cowboys and hicks speaking of “big dreams” and “hope”. Dude definitely has a way with words. Has anyone picked up any of his books? Good? Bad?

Mos Def - Travelin Man (Remix)

The Power of High Schools is ill. I didn’t know Cleveland got it in like that. Always a good look for the bol Bron to show up to your function….Stikz get @ me!!!

The Game w/ a 43 min freestyle and interview from the UK. I’m not sure about Reggie P/Blackboy but everyone held their own. There are/were some crazy impersonations in there.

Everywhere we go people know who we are:

Its been a fun year and some change youtube. 29,000 videos? You had to expect this to happen at some time, just maybe not this soon.

Rolling w/the Dipset…interesting…I mean Jimmy and Co. are definitely “entrpreneurs”, but is the black rollerblade/inline skate scene ready for the Dipset influence?

“Get Myself Into It” from The Rapture is a great look for your indie dance/pop punk set, serato users.

Killer Kel lets go:

*NJ and NY I am gonna be in Newark starting @ 5pm on Wednesday and will be there until Sunday morn. I know that Mighty Healthy and company have a party on Friday, as well as the Freedom Friday jumpoff, and my peoples are having a party in the financial district Sat night. I have to dress up so I think I’m gonna be a negro w/student loans…thats what I am dressing up as or maybe Carlton Banks. Anyhow people get @ me…

first name, silky slim, last name d o double g…

Clipse - Chinese New Year

Obama in ‘08? If he picks Hilary Clinton as his vice pres they would be a formidable combination.

This T.I. interview in Wax Poetics is real ill. Don’t sleep on Wax Poetics, because it is one of the most comprehensive magazines that serves the musical landscape from today to 40 years ago and beyond.

As classic of an MC Lyte sample this contains, this Four Tops song is ill on its own.

The Orlando Magic are going to win the championship this year? If Howard and Darko develop they could be the next great Parish and McHale. Seriously.

Kickin and Pushin w/Brandon Beibel…..I hope the young bols got it in on the stuntwood.

Shout out to DJ Undadog, Sneaker Suite and High Snobiety for their excellent picture selection.

This King Britt feature on Apple.com is quite ill. I’m not super up on dudes music, but I remember his involvement with the Digable Planets. He must be doing something right, cuz hes up there and I’m not.

XXL

The official “Get Familiar w/Darren Harper straight out of SE DC” youtube clip…

stunt w/a stallion, something italian…

Bread and Butta is back, and even though its in the early stages, E. Shaw still bringing that heat.

Don’t Believe the Hypebeast is back as well, and they are rockin real tough on your favorite all over print hoody.

Did I ever inform y’all of the new tracks over @ the myspace jump? 2004/5 heat for real, but its still that FIYAHH!!

The chicken noodle soup, wu tang, the spongebob, and a mean 9 year old thizz dance….damn young bol got that poppin!! This is your video how to get the latest dance moves your niece or nephew is doing without seeming uncool and asking them.

Rockin beats, beats, beats:

Rating every NBA player and their projected 06/07 output. Basically this says Lebron is the best player in the league individually and will be the only player to average 30+ points this season. My money to win the title is on San Antonio or….

The PlayPen bols…Sigel what is goin down?

The story of 11 Spring Street is quite fascinating. A modern day haunted house w/candles and a rich, but weird history. Street-art is losing a great public space to condos - UGH!!!

Sidney Lo Photography is ill. I like the clarity of the pictures and the angles that are used. I recently swooped up the Fisheye camera I had been talking about and its fire. I’m expanding my personal platform to be that nicca weoples.

Grown men crying? Calling out of work? The Arizona Cardinals message board is up in arms after the Cards folded on Monday night football. Man that was the most depressing, disheartening game I’ve seen in a while - so many factors hurt them I don’t want to get into it.

Dallas Penn x Juju (from the beatnuts) x Just Blaze x EPMD…concert looks ill and so was the recap.

I am the mike jordan of recording, you might wanna fall back from recordin…

Joe Budden - Broken Wings freestyle….Budden is top 3 right now, easily. My goodness this is sick.

Marketing Pop Culture

The hipsters don’t like Crooks N Castles? Ugh!!

DC Skateboarding is real strong right now, and its online presence is strong at Bradley Rosado: Daily Crack.

Brand New Funk…get, get down!!:

XXL and Hi-Tek present 10 Songs That Changed Hip Hop

John Mayer x New Era

Just Blaze In The Studio…via Nahright

This is about the creative process, not about getting shout outs:

Random Ish:

*Shout out to my guy CO who got married in the 804 this past weekend. I wish the most success to you and your jawn.

*”We Fly High” (BALLLLLINNNN) is a movement within itself. We hit some bar in Shockoe Bottom that dropped this and when the sample at the beginning of the song dropped the place went ape. Everyone from Becky to Bumquisha was on that joint tuff!!

*When the server in the drive thru lane of a fast food restaurant says shes gonna smack the cook if he doesn’t agree with her on who should win Flavor of Love, you know you are in Petersburg Richmond.

f-ckin w/my clique will get you lost like Gilligan

J Dilla x New Era…jawn is tough. Theres a maroon one as well thats similar to the cover of Dilla The Shining album.

say word ?!?!?!

Some dude making a beat. Homie was focused, to say the least. I mean he made a song, get your equipment game and weight up (grab a mpc 2000, eff the computer programs)..:

These six incoming freshman are just a handful of what many college basketball experts are claiming is the best freshman class in a decade. Better than that incoming class of ‘97?

This is the reason why Girl skateboards is one of the best, has been, and will continue to be…

Rasputins Stash - Mr. Cool

With his woman back by his side, Tony Parker has taken Paris by storm since the Spurs have been in training camp in France. Dude has been one of the most consistent players in the league for the last year or so and remember hes only 24.

Kid Sister on MTV?? Head to MTV overdrive then grab that Negrotronix mixatpe when it drops (not sure yet though, but its coming).

This gold crackle New Era from Mike is a tad over the top, yet hella ill as well. If you can find it and have some gold dunks to match, jump on it.

J Dilla - nothing like this (video)

13 minutes w/Stevie Wiliams:

New logo for the masses people, hella fresh if I must say so. Shout out to Nick for lookng out something real. Hopefully dude can design everything we need (which is alot) and we can be set from this point on.

Please check B.O.W.D. presents….Dupont Menage ASAP. Two oldies, but bangers up there for your downloading pleasure. If you don’t have to work (or if u do) I’ve updated the photos and about pages to make those happen now.

Also check James new apple site which I’m sure will be the definition of goodness in the weeks to come. Get your bookmark on…

have you on point then blast you up, leakin like Henny thru plastic cups

CD bootlegging is now the “in” way to start your rap career? Hey if they’re in the paper, something must be working…

Unkut has an excellent two part interview w/ Kenny Parker aka KRS-Ones brother. They give you so ill insight into KRS bum rushing PM Dawns show and the ensuing drama that was created with X-Clan, Ice Cube, etc. Read the outstanding interview here and here.

Big L & Jay Z 7 Minute Freestyle

Check out the mix CD that World Famous Beat Junkie J-Rocc did for the new Supreme store opening here. Heem if I must say so.

Get Familiar shirts are here and looking good:

Understand this Phoenix: Amare Stoudamire is not ready to play yet. Give dude the proper time to heal, y’all are forcing him to quick to fast.

Madlib and company hit Baltimore Nov. 5 on their Chrome Children tour. Work has already been taken off, so BELIEVE I am there. I really want to see Peanut Butter Wolf on the decks, because I’ve heard (and seen via Youtube) that dude is nice. Why no D.C. show though?

Gino:

File this under: thug motivation, game, etc. but Killer Mike gives you the real real talk about the music industry and his grind. I don’t want to cloud this with a bunch of bs, just click the link and watch the youtube.

Timothy Mosley is a problem

If Tony Parker has a bad start to the season this could be why. Now Eva is top notch twerk, so I’m not mad if he tries to get it back, but he might have a tuff french jawn on the low.

Steven Colbert vs. Wu Tang Clan:

never met her before, but I think I like her like a metaphor…

Nas interview on the Tim Westwood show. Definitely an interesting listen, but I don’t believe alof of what he says.

The Federation Stunna Shades

Tiger won. again. Can we get some solid representation in tennis and NASCAR now?

Less than a month away from the start of the NBA season and ESPN is already in pre-season form. Check the Power Rankings and see where your team sits. Suns @ #4….

These X-Girls x Nike Frees and Polka Dot Frees are super money for your chic. Who knows what the availability will be, but if they aren’t super crazy grabbem for your chic for X-Mas instead of the Tiffanys bracelet.

Nike Air Jordan 1 “Two Shoes: Pack

Speaking of Lupe, read the spinemag review of Food and Liquor and decide if you still don’t want it.
