Eminem > Mariah Carey
I still am haunted by Mariah's Eminem-looking attire from her "Obsessed" music video...ughhh.
So Disrespectful...
But I still figure 95 percent of the people checking out the blog (women included...) are not complaining about seeing Beyonce's nipples...honestly, I just couldn't help but wonder why Hov would let her roll out with a see-through top...very suspect....(not sure if this photo shows it, but Jay is actually behind her in these photos...)
So disrespectful B(eyonce), but I do it for hip-hop...
Lollipop
Something about seeing Rihanna and Katy Perry with suckers in their mouths makes me laugh...(laugh). (Get it?)
Stalker
(laugh) First it was "stan," now we've moved to "stalker?" (laugh) Flow with me though....has the "stalker" become nearly accepted in our culture....no, really, think about it...
I keep hearing these stories about Miley Cyrus' stalker and then you got other cases f celebrities being followed....of course nothing like the stalker back in the day who was crazy over Jodi Foster...but still, can the "stalker" role really be something which is coming back 'round for most of us...?
(laugh) I still crack myself up thinking about a past female or two who I had to apply the "stalker" title to....from the over-abundance of text messages to randomly saying "I'm right down your street, what a coincidence" when clearing in fact I lived a few twists and turns into the suburbs, obviously making it difficult to just be passing by...however, can the return of the stalker really be back?
Folks with emerging restraining orders, more sexual predators files posted and a few additional headlines in the New York Daily News & Post about (fill in the blank) getting his stalker on? Hmm....just wondering.
Bald Headed Eagle...
(laugh) Ah shucks, I really wanted to avoid putting Amber Rose even remotely close to my blog, but...I gotta come clean (pause).
The bald headed jump-off (jump-off, the girls' a jump-off!) is definitely illy...having actually come across her and her two (Jewish?) goons last month, I must say her physical appearance lives up to the hype...something about her crazy swag and just overall calmness was impressive...
Granted, when folks tend to see her she's on the Lil Kim x Satine Phoenix tip as far as horny and tough talk is concerned...
But at the end of the day, could I really get down with a shorty going with this look? It really gets to a point where you have to start thinking about how "short" is "too short...?" Sure, Halle Berry got down with the low cut back in the day...but I keep hearing Mike Epps in the back of my head:
(Peep the 1:08 part...)
(laugh) Regardless though, whether the hair cut is too "artistic" for you or not, you have to pay homage to ol' girl for going against the grain and saying, "Umma do meeeeeeeeeeeee."
For "that" fact, Amber is illy like Kanye's guest appearances...
I Can't Stay Alseep
Fo' real fo' real....I've really been breaking it down...it seems as though when I hit the bed early ala "Early Bird Gets The Worm," I find myself sleeping dumb late and being even more tired than before...
So, with crazy shout-outs to Dave Atell (remember those "Insomniac" days...?), my steez has been upped...no more early nights...the kid is pushing 12 errrrynight..
(laugh..honestly? Still laughing over the Via Pause Police clips....WOW....)
Yerp....(laugh).....
Via Pause Police
Soulja Boy x Arab = HILARIOUS...
Another "classic" courtesy of a "PausePolice.com" posting...
Pause Police
(laugh)
We'll see how long this lasts, but man oh man...it's official.....I'm going to start adding clips from "www.pausepolice.com"
I thought it was all hype but after spending five minutes on the site, HILARIOUS...Now while some people get offended and say, "I'm you're a real man, you don't have to say things like 'pause' you know...?" I would recommend just being a "man" and peeping the clips too...
(laugh)
So yerp, "Via Pause Police" will now be in full effect...(laugh)
Pause x No Homo
Just realized...if the phrase was "no homo[sexual]" I wonder if people would fully say it...hhmmm....
(laugh) Nonetheless, I still had to place emphasis on the "pause" and "no h*mo" effect because this photo is too hilarious....take away your sexual insecurities and faked out urge to make a "Game" facial expression and just take notice of what I'm telling you...
In the recent Olympic challenge, the above swimmer ran into this issue right before taking off in the water....now I don't care what folks say or try to laugh it off, this is HARD (pause)....come on, to have your speedo outfit split as you go for gold?
(laugh)
Terrence Howard should have given him some words of advice on pride...(laugh)
Subliminal references to the side, it's still funny nonetheless and I had to toss it up here....because as the good ol' days of laughing at 1980's Police Academy-like clips where someone's backside was unknowingly exposed, we're losing touch of simple humor and this up above is just funny....ahhhhh........I'm really back.
Lights Out
Can it really be all that simple? See, the sad part about some things in life is how we try to perceive something differently than what it really is....case in point, Akon.
(laugh) Even though the big homie looks more like G. Dep in the above image than himself, I can't help but point out something others must have realized at this point....
"Konvicted" = 3x platinum
"Freedom" (right?) = gold
Ehhhh....just about a two year difference in between both, but still...that's telling you something....maybe Lil Wayne really came through the game and switched the momentum, but Akon...where did those collaborations and crazy sales numbers go?
"Smack That" featuring Eminem ("Konvicted")
"I Wanna F*ck You" featuring Snoop Dogg ("Konvicted")
Wait, could it be....am "I" buggin'? Could those two above singles have made the record hit 3 milli? Nahhhh, pweeease.
So here we are...looking at Mr. Konvict Labelhead himself and one of recent year's best sellers....
Shucks, I still remember when Kanye said "I'm not competing with 50 Cent, I'm trying to outsell Akon...." (give or take a noun/verb in my paraphrased errr..'phrase')
Well, things change and while I don't want to count out Akon at this point, I just can't seem to make sense of his missing blockbuster appearances....shucks, even 50 got him to lace "Still Kill" from the 'Curtis' album....even to the point where they shot a music video for it....come on, 'Kon was really pulling the commercial Weezy on folks...
We can only see how things pan out...but man Akon...man.
Locked Up...
Well granted, the big homie didn't get locked up but seeing him made me realize...say word, dun dun...I'm a bigger star than homie these days?
(laugh) Ehhh, maybe not quite, but regardless....if you don't remember by now, this is the "Black Power Ranger" from back in the day...long story short, he got busted over the weekend in Alabama....(no Hollywood, California dreamin' over there...) for "DUI."
Ahhhh....it's actually pretty sad because once you're painted in the public forum or rather the public "eye" even in something as far back as "The Mighty Morphing Power Rangers," we still think your paper stretches...
And of course, eh, who is to say he doesn't have long paper trails like Tip, but still...when the last thing you can be referred to is a 18 year-old show? (Give or take a year here or there...) Man oh man...save your money and drive slow, homie...
Turning Me Off
Ahhh...Keri, Keri, Keri....it's true...despite numerous co-signs from errrryone....I can't get down with ol' girl....
Well, let me clarify...as far as her singing talent? Dope...however, the typical "Dreams of f*cking an R&B chick...." aspect? Ehhhh.....nah.
I know, sounds like I'm bugging again off the Rosa Acosta tip, but something about Keri has always rubbed (pause) me the wrong way....maybe it's the flat chest (sorry select ladies...) or it could be just the 'plain' overall sex appeal of her...I can't tell....
Now of course I'm feeling her swag...the interviews and videos she's done as of lately are very Keri-proof and entertaining to say the least...but do I have even an inkling of "Cassie" admiration for her?
Nerp...and that's hard to swallow...(pause)...but I had to get it out in the open...but maybe it's just me...Of course I've given the co-sign to others like Olivia and have gone 'round and 'round (on the Mef/Jonnell tip...)....wait, wait...gotta pay homage:
(laugh) But moving things along, cwwazy love to Keri, but the need to get those pictures onto the desktop and turned into screen saver slider....I'm passing....
Flow with me though! (laugh)
Via Pause Police
Finally made my way to www.pausepolice.com
HILARIOUS...wow....the online world is deep....(PAUSE!!!)
Too Perfect, Too Much...
The thing about being a hip-hop journalist is being surrounded by the latest talk of what's hot/not/(hop stop...) (laugh)
No, but seriously....Rosa Acosta? Simply said, shorty is a ten...right?
Ehhhh.....see, here's my issue...while my peers would be quick to toss the "gay" (not literally or in offense, just calling out my manhood) for not co-signing ol' girl (even though I would give Scarlett (peep below) an easy co-sign...), it's more along the lines of being "too perfect...."
From the face to the legs to the backside to the breasts....it's honestly too much....I guess you could say I'm more of the simplistic type....for example, my No. 1 "Best I Ever Had" moment would involve my top gunner, Rosario Dawson....
While she carries a lot of features folks would call "perfecto," there are the issues as in "no booty," "suspect toe game," and so on....but that's MY GIRL...
As much as I strive for perfection, the idea of having the "perfect" shorty is too much pressure for the kid...granted, I still knock game winners down like Bibby in '02 against the Lakers, but fo' real fo' real......it's just an over dose of "perfection" which can drown a feller....
So we have Rosa....shucks, even the name is dope...but just seeing how "much" (physically, of course...) she has to offer is enough to make me hit the library and ask Susie if she'd like to go see the upcoming Meryl Streep flick....(laugh)
Even though (shout-outs to Delante!) my swagger has often given off the impression of being worthy of only the "video vixen" type...it's too much, fo' real fo' real...even for sexual purposes only...I love the women who can use a bit of doubt (minus fire) in their steez to motivate 'em to just apply personality and swag...granted, Rosa is just caking (profiting, stacking, eating) off her sexual appeal, but when you're "that" perfect...ehhhh.....yup, you guessed it...turnin' me off, shorty...
Therefore, I would like to announce my resignation of pursuing any interest in Rosa Acosta...fellas, you owe me a solid for this one....deuces, deuces...
CO-SIGNED
I know I feel semi-late with this...but the "body can't help with the heart wants" or words to that effect....
Scarlett Johansson....CO-SIGNED..........something about that goofy but sophisticated sexy swag has the GoCyrusGo boy going craaaazzzzzzzy!
Biggest Game That You Seen Thus Far
(laugh)
Sorry, had to laugh at that...but it's true....and even more so, the movie is a straight cult classic.......from the countless dialog, "Can You Dig It" to the non-stop action...this gets the biggest co-sign from me...(and come on, "Cyrus" < "Go Cyrus Go".......)
While I was going to ink up a dumb silly description and my personal views on why this has to be a must-see for folks especially 'round the New York City area....I'll keep things moving and slide a quick video below:
WH WARRIORS from Mamadank on Vimeo.
(Applying the "mute" feature wouldn't hurt either..but eh....)
Man on the Moon
(laugh) As I type these first few words, I can't help but laugh as I think about Nicolas Cage resting in my Blu-Ray player (via PS3) in the form of "Bangkok Dangerous..." A solid 45 minutes into the film and you can't help but laugh at the "bad" .....no, really, really, reallly "bad" acting....
But, then again....as I hinted yesterday, Nicky Cage has bypassed Samuel L. Jackson for the status of "non-stop movie maker..."
Now of course, hopefully, people can tell what I'm getting at....the main debate is whether Nick truly feels inspired by these films he's been putting together...("Knowing," "Bangkok," "G-Force," "National Treasure...2?!!?!?!")
(laugh)
Much like you would wonder if Sammy really did appreciate his role and production of "Lakeview Terrace," "Snakes on a Plane," "Black Snake Moan," "SNAKES ON A MOTHERF*CKING PLANE?!?!?!?!?!?!"
(laugh) Say what you want, but Nick has earned my respect....I guess he has been doing it steady for a solid few years at this point, but man....if those movie checks aren't just flying in like it's nothing...wow....
His acting is suspect, hair styles always changing and voice stays at an all-time slow x low.....but I still find his flicks hilarious....
Come on, you can't tell me watching "City of Angels" does not make folks burst out in laughter....(laugh)
Ahhhh...I quit, Nicky won this round hands down....
End Of An Era...
Ahhhh....it's really gotten to "that" point....now, I usually don't take mind to personal insecurity and I especially could care less about what folks really, really, really think..however, it's a wrizzy....
My G-Unit clothing days are done.
Granted, I had a fun run...more so from Summer 2006 up until Fall 2007...yerp, it was fun...shucks, I still remember hitting up the Ecko store and being in amazement at how much of the clothing was being marked down...shucks, I copped G-Unit branded outfits like the recession was over...fo' real fo' real....
But then it came...(pause).....from homeless men to broke folks....errryone had some form of G-Unit on....granted, I rocked mine when the $34.99 price tag really meant something and gave me semi-"Ralph Lauren" status...but it really got to the point where it was not unusual for me and the fella asking for change (and not the kind we can believe in...) to have on the same exact G-Unit shirt....
From the "Yo, Cyrus is rocking the Gun-It 'ish...." to even having my own co-workers remind me it was time to officially retire 'em...."Eh, did anybody say anything about your shirt today, Cyrus...?" (laugh)......yerp, I'm cashing in and putting 'em all in the "Throwback Jersey" closet...
Shucks, I really felt the run could go longer...but when you have to start trying to conceal the G-Unit logo/trademark when you're sitting next to potential wifey material on the subway/bus just out of paranoia....man, it's definitely a wrizzy....
Now of course this doesn't mean I may rock one or two pieces (not likely though) around the crib....but my "overall" GGGG GGGG GGG-Unit push is outta, outta, outta here baby....
And it's not a shot (pause) at 50 Cent and his (out-of-business) company, but more so due to the fact that you reach an age where rocking a "rapper's" clothing line just doesn't have the same "ring" to it....granted, I will give Diddy's "Sean John" a pass and Jay-Z's "Roc-A-Wear" 'might' be the last straw for me....but things like:
-The Wu-Tang Clan's "Wu-Wear"
-T.I.'s "Akoo"
-OutKast's er....."their clothing line"
And a grip of others...man oh man....it's just time to roll like Young Dro said...
"White Boy Tags, Black Boy Swag..."
*Ralph Lauren
*Hager
*Tommy..ehhh......scratch that...still have 1996 flashbacks....
Chris Brown Cops Photo Plea
(laugh) Pardon my funny wordplay up above, but something about Chris Breezy and the term "cops" as he stands next to two cops just makes me laugh.
(laugh)
Well, I guess the main reason behind me posting the above image is to rhetorically ask folks out thurr if it makes 'em mad...seeing what some fans have called the next "Ike Turner" giving off the Colgate smile aside two female law enforcement bodies....
Honestly, something I have stressed from the get...just fall back. Sure, we saw an image of a battered up Rihanna and that's something which will stay in folks' head for a minute...but as hard as it may seem, baby oh baby...let it go....
Sure, people have said and backed up various stories on both the lil homie and the girl's side....but at the end of the day, you have to let their personal lives go according to them...
One issue with the power of media today is how much "we" become involved with aspects which should be left alone...
In all honesty, we have been exposed to WAY too much (sorry for the 'WAY' emphasis....def. not on my "Wayne's World" tip as of yet...) of Michael Jackson's personal life since his passing...
Okay, You're Right...play the "biggest boss in the game thus far" role and claim he was the greatest performer which allows folks to examine errrything he ever touched (no pun intended...), but come on, be reaaaazzzy, fo' real fo' real?
Calm it down and just let folks get about their personal lives...now when the records start covering these issues and the BlogTV broadcasts are on the Stephon Marbury "Cry Me A River" tip....chea, we get it....but 'til then, just let 'em do 'em....yada mean?
Ashy Larry > Stephon Marbury
Hilarious..hilarious...hilarious.....Steph, you really take an "L" for the 'Crying Game' tactic, homie....get 'em Donnell!
DJ Whoo Kid x Camelface (Jay-Z Diss)
(laugh) Now honestly, you really can't call this an authentic diss......in my view, DJ Whoo Kid "dissing" Jay-Z (as the above video suggests) would be the equivalent of saying Jay Leno (R.I.P. "Tonight Show...") dissed George Bush during those late night sketches...(laugh)
Nonetheless though, as much as I love (pause) the big homie Jigga Man, ya heard...I still can't get over how much I appreciate and enjoy the disses which come his way via the likes of The Game, Cam'ron, Nas, DJ Whoo Kid, Damon Dash, Jim Jones, DJ Webstar..etc, etc....
(laugh)
Uhhhhhhhh. That's your promo.
Public Enemy No. 1
This guy has the Hollywood movie scene on lock...Samuel L. Jackson, you have a motherf*&king problem and his name is Nicky...
Pornstars x Twitter
Ahhhh....just like when I used to renew my subscription to "King" every year....something about the actual written content never held my attention when it came to the cover girl's feature/interview...
Same applies to Twitter. Sure, I'll keep it trilla/real/a hundred...my porn star name game is illy...from underground queens like Marquetta Jewel to Vanessa Leon all the way to Gianna Michaels and Havana Ginger...I gets busy filing those names in the back of my dome.....so when I found out a grip of 'em had Twitter accounts?
@AsaAkira "Hey Asa!!! Mad love!!!"
(laugh) Well, long story short....aside from getting some love back via the messages, something about seeing the overly boring and "Just got f*cked by Tony!!!" texts had my stomach irking...fo' real fo' real...
Saving people the length and time of reading full drawn out descriptions.....I caught a major "L" and drop 'em faster than Jigga x Amil around 2001...
Officer Ricky x "Ego"
(laugh)
This is really too much, even for me....while folks have been telling the kid about this video for a minute, crazy shout-outs to my brother, "B!" for getting me to actually peep it...
(laugh) Say what you want about Rick Ross....personally, his "Deeper Than Rap" album is one of the Top 5 projects released since the start of 2009.....No Joke, Choke....
However, when it comes to humor....folks should already know my resume...
Jokes, and jokes and jokes.... > "I Keeps It reallllllllll"
Well, not that the above comparison helped out very much...just kick back and flow with the video....(and fo' real fo' real......YouTube will continue to win a few of these rounds...but errryone should know how I'm rolling as of lately... Vimeo > YouTube....)
Stan
Yes, good ol' Go Cyrus Go a.k.a. "CyrusKLanghorne" a.k.a....well, you get the point, yerp...I have my very own "Stan."
Now, while I keep things poppin' like Chris Breezy 'round fall 2005 as far as online writing is concerned plus some Playstation 3 action, I must say...to have a friend-turned-stalker-turned-Stan keeping up-to-date is a bit much...
It's one thing to peep the writings on a daily basis, it's another to continue errry avenue to get in touch with the kid.
.....e-mail: "Hi Cyrus!!!"
........Instant Messenger: "Hey Cyrus!!!"
...........YouTube account: "New Comment!!!"
...............Canceled Facebook account: "Stan has sent you a message!!!"
(laugh) Sure, it's partially my fault because I don't have it in me enough to just dun-dun homie...like,
"Eh, word...let me get back to you on that one day..FUNK OUTTA HERE, maaaaaaaaaan."
I'm truly a genuine fella with a rhinestone "Roc".....(laugh)....okay, badly attempted humor...(laugh)
Anyway, I'm keeping homie in the pocket....not dismissing him by going the D-Bo route via wordplay on here, but still....after constant "No Response/0 Inbox Messages/etc....." people have to finally get the point, right?
Ahhhhh..........man oh man.......cue (or is it "que") up the Nas x R.Kelly record...."Did you ever think that you would be this slick/Get the Internet going nutz and people jumping on your di....whooaaa!"
I'm So Wavy...
(laugh) Honestly, nothing too special about this image although it does bring back the good ol' feeling of "Photo of the Day" mixed with my admiration and aim to have a Jordan-rocking wifey...(or jump-off, jump-off...the girl's a jump-off!)
Not sure if folks' tape decks go back this far but "Married to the Mob" was a crazy hilarious movie....with my girl Michelle Pfeiifer..ahhh..."Catwoman" had the kid in a daze back 'round those early 1990's...(laugh)
Anyway, something about having a female companion riding shotgun who knows how to draw attention but doesn't need it....follow me? (A Jogging Session With Cyrus > Twitter)....
Therefore, to all the girls 'round the world...sure, get the John Cletas on and popping, but on those "gully" days, bring it back to the high top kicks with swagger draped all over 'em....aiight? (laugh)
Mickey Monday...gotta love it.
Explain This...
Stephon Marbury Has A Breakdown Live On Webcam
When you see a New York kid from Coney Island breaking down on "live" blogcast...yerp, it's definitely bedtime...
SMH...those Knicks nightmares are stuck in his head I bet.
Arli$$
If you've never heard of "Arliss" before....you LOST....no joke...stop reading...okay, wait, wait....I'm still getting the viewership up past my occasional friend and your everyday stalker, but honestly...you should wash your mouth out with Plax for that one if not.....let me indulge your mental intellect for a quick second:
Sure, the quality is poorer than scratched pornography VHS tapes from '89, but still..the point holds true....the cast, acting, shucks, even the opening and closing of each episode was dope....I'm talking about one of HBO's premiere shows which helped it rock the crown just like the late Biggie Smalls in '97...
Think about it...with shows like "Arliss" and "Oz" along with "The Chris Rock Show" plus "The Sopranos," "The Wire," "Dennis Miller Live" (pre-Bill O'Reilly co-sign), "Mr. Show," and a grip of others...man oh man....is it really a doubt why HBO was in control and capable of the tag, "It's Not TV, It's HBO...."
However, I'm swaying away from the point at hand...Arliss held it dowwwwwwwwwnnnn, like a Yung Joc x Nitty beat....fo' real fo' real...diverse cast, crazy storylines behind errryone and just the slight sprinkle of sex/nudity in certain scenes with vulgar language and obscene actions which still make me wonder how it could have landed on ESPN for re-runs......man, we're talking about classic material....
I still look back at shows no longer running and wonder why they fell off so hard and if it was "their" fault or the networks.....sure, "Son of the Beach" got way too carried away with my girl Amy Weber (right?) being added, but then again, "Reno 911" added a grip of folks and still managed to continue onward for a stack of new seasons....
Maybe I have to go back and re-analyze my argument....but I never saw "Arliss" coming to an end like it did.....honestly, I still can't remember what the last episode was and how far into the 2000's it went before getting the red tape...but shucks, sometimes you gotta let those wheels roll 'til either (Hov forbid) a cast member passes away or your target audience has discovered online sex tapes and OVGuide movies more entertaining than sitting through a full episode of (fill in the blank)..........ahhhh...........just me thinking out loud....keep it moving, keep it moving....
Get Em...
(laugh) Honestly, this image has been on the desktop for a dumb silly minute...well, to be more exact, I think more along the time when Game first dropped his diss towards Jay-Z and the hip-hop mogul was staying mum (way before these recent United Kingdom disses...)
But regardless, I love images and seeing the big homie Kanye West ice grilling (if you can really call it that...) in this image as opposed to his more recent photos just makes me laugh.
It's crazy, being an hip-hop journalist...well, let's break down the barriers all together, being a journalist at all....it's difficult at times to express how you feel about something without putting yourself on blast or, even worse, placing your job on the line....
Opinions and journalism don't always mesh like Champion jerseys 'round 1995. (laugh)
Come on, on the writing tip, who you know does it better, right?
Well, going down memory lane...I'll keep it real. It wasn't until I got my first official (paid) gig via SOHH.com last summer (Dear Summer [2008]...thank-you.), well, pre-summer to be exact....anyway, nonetheless, it wasn't until I started getting paid to write news stories in which I really started to watch my wordplay on certain subjects (to an extent) and attempt to appreciate every artist as exactly what the title suggests, an "artist..."
Therefore, my "50 Cent > The Game" days were tucked aside and I learned to put my personal issues and G-Unit clothing in lock down mode and respect Game for the person he is...now it's very sad, in a sense, because I've really gone to the point of nearly "riding" with the West Coast emcee...
From the name drops to the constant bragging of his PS3 skills ala "NBA 2K9," man....it's one thing which I honestly believe he prevails at.....connecting with an audience....while I still think Lloyd Banks is worthy of carrying his "Punch Line King" title...outside of his rhymes, I have no idea what this guy gets down with other than lacing up bars with weed-laced rhymes....fo' real fo' real...
However, Game makes his appearances, gets the movie thing going on and seems to not really have too many issues staying relevant with his material...
Sure, he goes through his issues here and there, but overall? We're connected...we know he's a video game fiend....loves sports....gets closer to Stacy Dash than those KING Magazine photographers ever did and probably has both Common and Tyrese on speed dial.....
Therefore, I tip my fitted to Game and even though region forces us to side with Jigga Man, ya heard.....we still hold Game in a high light...
(laugh)
I'm sooo inking, inking..huh?
Go Cyrus Go PSP Go
Once again it's on! Okay, I won't even fake the funk...in all honesty, my loyal PSP has finally been diagnosed with the "Black Line Of Death...."
For those out there unfamiliar with the terminology (< Termanology), let me break it down for you...take a piece of dental floss and place it across your 13 inch (pause..and do they still make televisions "that" small?) television......well, that's pretty much what I have on the PSP now...ahhhh...so many good memories...
From the days of putting countless clips from "Bang Bros" in the video section, Cassie's (leaked via Puffy) nude photos in the image section, constant 50 Cent, Young Dro and Big Pun tracks in the music area to non-stop adventures with "The Warriors," "NBA Live 2007," "God of War" and more in the video game section....to mad UMD movies....(Stripes, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, etc...).....we've had some great times...
However, somewhat of a gift and by luck....the new "PSP Go" is going to be dropping this fall (roughly sometime in October) and baby oh baby....what better of a sign from the big homie Hov up above, right?
Go Cyrus Go
PSP Go
Ahhhhhh........perfecto, yada mean?
But still....I can't tell if I'm bugging.....sure, it's a very thin line and everything on the PSP I have now works...but ahhh shucks, how sad it is that I'm going to have to slide it over to a friend (B!) or even family member (Dad!) as a "gift"...
It was all a matter of time I suppose, but still.....memories, sweet memories.....and when I really think about it, the pay-offs are crazy....in addition to 16 GB built-in memory, the size should let me sneak into the night venues for stories and cruise on back to the crib with easeeeeeee.
Ahhhh.....so for folks out there worrying about the PSP vs PSP Go debate..the competition should be none.....:
PSP Go Hands On: Too Tiny? from Gizmodo on Vimeo.
Just Too Good To Be True
It's going on just about a year to date since I fell in (boy-boy) love with ol' girl Amy Winehouse. Granted, I'll blame it on "Dexter: Season 2" where my girl Lilah came into the picture with the dumb silly English accent which prompted me to pop in a few tracks of "Back To Black....."
WOW. (Expression > Women of Wrestling)
(laugh) Everything just "clicked...." I felt the tunes come through these Big Willy (Smith) ears of mine and just start mixing a couple tracks of her platinum-selling album along with 50 Cent's "Sincerely Yours..." mixtape via the Playstation Portable....wow....
Add in the factor of me keeping the car to the side for "environmental" purposes (let Mom Dukes hold on to it....) with me taking the bike(s) to the train in Carteret, New Jersey....meaning a solid 15 minute bike ride where sweat mixed with Amy's voice and Fif's "errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" records....yup, Summer 2008 was a go for the kid....
Well, while Fif went in one ear and quickly out the other as Terminate On Site (TOS) lacked any real power and made me make it the last G-Unit project I plan to ever purchase (until I'm proven wrong both via sales and fans' overall reception of the Unit....), Amy stayed in my domepiece....even to the point of me dipping to the Rahway Library and copping her "Frank" album.......
Donk! Geeeshh! Wooozers! Hot, Tamale!!!
Yerp, all those things combined and I saw myself laughing off my "Corinne Bailey Rae is so sweeeeet" to, "'What kind of f*ckery is this...you made me miss the Slick Rick gig.....'" (laugh)
Come on, all this time I had Sade and Corinne playing these soft melodies and Amy just came through the back door (pause) with a bottle of Scotch in one hand, cocaine residue on her skirt and made you just wild out.........
Yup.....those simple facts and actions alone made the kid remember those Stefani "Ain't No Harlem, Blackgirl" spoofs and "Oh My god, Becccckkkkkkyyyyyyyy" records and go all-out (Harlem!) for the search of an English girl..wifey, jump-off...ehhh, whichever came (pause) first....
Last Man Standing
Yup, let's cut all the small talk....I'm here, I'm not here...eh, the world continues to revolve, right?
Nahhhhhh man, not good enough for me to settle with. Much like my big homie "Carlito" (Al, you got one baby!), it's us against the world...continuing to out-pace time and rack up enough silver dollars (< green backs > dead presidents) to cruise outta sight with your girl on one side and child-to-be alongside her........
Time in and time out, the kid goes from running this blog (beep) to reppin' M.O.B. (Money Over Blogging....), but I'm trying...really, I'm really trying (like Samuel L. Jackson's character from "Pulp Fiction," last scene....) to keep things going and have errrybody happy....the gigs, my love (writing), my affair (PS3), my dreams, imagination, family, friend(s), babies (dogs) and errrything else which fits in there......
From "I'm back, I'm back I'm back I'm back....I'm back I'm back again....." to "Wednesday, July 15th"......I'm honestly feeling like T.I. when he pressed those final copies of "King" (or maybe Atlantic did all that work...) together knowing he had a solid piece of work and his focus was at an all-time high or maybe I'm a bit more comparable to Kobe Bryant accepting the Finals 2008 "L" and lacing up for NBA Tip-Off 2009 in October/November...
Whichever you want to call it, I'm "that....." (plus "Illy..."), granted...the lack of inner (hyper)links erks the kid....but maybe I'll fall back and hop back onto those when the Blogspot $$$ starts flowing in...(laugh)
I'm busier than ever these days, but it feels so good.....
(laugh) Come on, who loves ya, ba-by...
Freeway x Bloggers
Come on...you know my team is SOHH SOHH strong!
Peep the 1:30 mins. mark....owww!!!!!!! Free-weezy!!!
I Wear Black A Lot
Yerp, it's official...well, I wouldn't necessarily call it "official," however, my love and joy:
...for rocking black attire is sick. I mean, nothing like a "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" extra role, but the overall appeal of rocking the black top and pants, plus kicks...ahhh...toss on a chain too?
Owwwwwwwwww!
(laugh) Maybe it has something to do with Jay-Z's "I wear black a lot..." line from Reasonable Doubt...but it's so true...or maybe it's Jay's recent "I might wear black for a year straight...." from "Death of Autotune...," I'm hooked and have been doing so 'round my neck of the woods...
Honestly though, my black-on-black gear doesn't go very deep (pause), but the amount I have could have me appear in an urban Black Ops model runway...(laugh)...yada mean?
Although I'm a big co-signer of the button up tops and multi-colored kicks, something about seeing things as simple as Fab and Ryan Leslie coming through with the simplistic gear has me amazed....believe it or not, at times, more is actually less....wild, right?
Nothing big in this posting, just wanted to get some thoughts out in the air...therefore, in addition to my next wifey having Amy Winehouse similarities, English accent, love for video games, a writer, able to do hat tricks, rock fitted's, love Nike Dunks and a few other things...yup, if she can rock all-black attire, that'd be dope too...
(laugh)
On Stash
(laugh) Okay, so maybe I've done this topic in the past...however, it's something which must be touched on once again...
KEEP YOUR PORNO GAME ON STASH (AND ON DECK...)
It's officially 2009 and the days of VHS are past dinosaur-extinct while the DVD pornography is up there with Laser Discs.....overall...?
Just not a good look.
Let's be honest, married or not....pornography will continue and should excel that of daily vitamins. While folks shouldn't become "addicted" to it...
"Addiction" - Video 2 from Ryan Leslie on Vimeo.
(laugh) Come on, if my returns to the blog aren't better than MJ's 45 days, then their the "closest" ones..yada mean....but boasting aside, let's stay at the task at hand....
Keeping your pornoraphy (x porno...) game on lock....now, when it comes right down to it, bottom line...?
Keep it a hundred....meaning, don't have take the time to pull out the Inspector Gadget tricks and hidin' behind the CD player in your whip....nah, let ol' girl know how you get down...on those "Aunt Flow" days and make her feel like if Netflix was still en route, you could toss on a clip and bang out...(no pun intended...)
Therefore....bring your mind back to the present and come up with new options...
1. Computer Hardrive
Sure..it's a bit borderline perverted to have your "BIG JUICY A**ES VOL 23" next to the Tax Return excel document on your main screen..but maybe it's just a stepping stone...
2. USB Plugs
A step up from your computer's hard drive are those USB plugs...sure, snatch a few funny looking ones or maybe see if BangBros has their own "Dirty Sanchez" approved versions...either way, they're portable, convenient and will safely (if necessary) be able to stash away in those salt and pepper shakers if need be...
3. Portable Hard Drive
Now this is the real deal...snatch a good ol' 500 MB removable/portable hard drive and you're backing up a lot more than just iTunes. (laugh) Stack up, download, prepare for moving trips and even computer crashes...you're good money.
4. Blanks DVDs
Yup, it's only necessary to finish off the blog posting with the very same thing I mentioned which would not be a good look..but here's the catch.....just like the capacity of a portable hardrive (well, to an extent) or even those little USB plugs, these should be used to stack up anything you've gotten and couldn't decide what fabricated file "John's Personal Work" to create on the Dell home screen...so, here is a convenient option...
Bottom line....STOP BUYING PHYSICAL PORNOGRAPHY...not only is it a bad look, but just the idea of thinking what to do with it.....because you will get caught one day and even if you're with wifey and she's cool with it.....one missing disc could mean the difference between a family visit and a sooner-than-later child porn star.
Be wary out there, folks!
Game x Jay-Z
The Game Day 2 Blog from Taydoe Kidd on Vimeo.
(LAUGH)
Cwwwazy busy but dumb silly happy! Yerp! Will get back to the updates (fill in the blank)....and as a side note...YouTube is definitely falling off....if this Vimeo video plays the way I expect it to, yerp, you got it.....say g'bye to dee bad guy, maang.
(laugh)
These over-extended clips are killing my jogging session steez, so still searching for a suitable replacement 'less I find a better way to put those YouTube videos up.....I know, I'm all over Game (pause), but he's having errryone laughing....that's my DUDE right now, get 'em!
Dreams
(laugh)
All jokes aside, I knew instantly when The Game resorted to his Twitter account in order to see if folks thought Jay-Z was really dissing him in the Las Vegas freestyle, yerp, I knew it was a wrap.
In other words, Game would not let this one fly by without getting his 50 cents in...(laugh, no pun intended....)
I won't even lie, I truly thought Game was bugging out upon being kicked out of the Unit and launching the "G-Unot" campaign.
(laugh) From the shirts and mixtapes to his "Stop Snitching" DVD campaign...everything really seemed to be a joke to me until recently...
While I've been riding on 50 Cent (pause) since those "How 2 Rob" days, these past few years have felt less than organic...almost staged and overly imitated...(like the bacon).....it got to a point where aside from the lack of popularity (as seen in the clothing line being ceased, album sales lagging and reality show being canceled....) and constant "hate" the Unit received, it was just too much for me to handle and I took a second and realized...
.............
..................
.......................
............................after these past few years of stamping and focusing on errrything little thing (on some Bobby Brown type stuff) which even remotely resembled the Unit (come on, I even had Daddy Yankee's G-Unit remixed "Rompe" on the MP3 player...) in my possession.....which, in turn, led to me signing off on other past rap acts and not even seeing what else was outside of the circle.....
Out of all honesty, the spring and summer of 2006 consisted of me listening to Lloyd Banks' "The Hunger For More" daily...choke, no joke.
(laugh)
I say all of that to say this....looking back and to the present, The Game's departure from G-Unit was probably one of the best things which could have happened for him as an artist. Sure, I would have loved more collaborations with Fif and Game along with other people in the Unit click...but it got to a point where 50 didn't know what he wanted to establish with the Unit brand....
M.O.P.
Mobb Deep.
Spider Loc
Olivia [could have lasted..but it was a stretch from those early Unit mixtapes...anyone remember Scarlett?]
Mase
Bang Bang Boogie [via assocation]
and then came the long list of "beefs" which came out of nowhere; T.I., D-Block, Fat Joe, Cam'ron, etc...
Granted, some of those just developed like the Cam phone call..but shucks, when it came to not biting his tongue..who came through?
Come on....I still remember 50's interviews where he said he was upset Game 'debuted' via Jim Jones' video as opposed to the "How We Do" clip....
Maaaann.....from video games, product placement name drops, constant unrealistic "beefs" to just being overly funny in a 'serious' way....Game has always been himself.....call him bi-polar, call him illy, it doesn't matter...at the end of the day he sold the most units out of 50's camp and has maintained a presence both on-screen and off.....
Ahhhhhhhhhhh............you gotta love hip-hop.
Game Time
The Game Day 1 Blog on World Tour from Taydoe Kidd on Vimeo.
Peep my write-up a few postings down...Game is my DUDE. He's the most charismatic out of the entire G-Unit click (or at least 'was') when you boil down personality, content and overall appeal.
G-Unit > G-Unot
G-Unit < G-Unot
G-Unit = G-Unot
No matter which way you see it, both squads are dope and Game was a one-man army which refused to die out despite being kicked out of a group which made him a superstar. For that, I salute the big homie.
Deuces, deuces.
Here's Johnny...
Top five, dead or alive...
Johnny Depp
Brad Pitt
Denzel Washington
Al Pacino
Will Smith
(laugh) Granted, those are likely to change at any given moment, but when it comes to dopest of dope.....Johnny Depp has the game on smash...
Numero uno....numero un.....the illest.
From "Donnie Brasco" to "Cry Baby" to "Sleepy Hollow...." his acting speaks for itself. Having just seen "Public Enemies" yesterday, while I won't give away hardly any details about the production..I will say the film's lead actor, Johnny Depp, played another superb role....mostly thanks to his acting.
I can't call it...something about his ease and yet serious overtones (or is it under tones?).....regardless, there's not too many actors I am able to co-sign with nearly any film project, but when it comes to Depp......got 'amn....(laugh)
Touching on the new film....:
While I was a bit taken by the focus on story rather than action, I could not believe how great of an actor Depp continues to be. It struck me last month when I saw Denzel Washington's character in "Pelham 123" (from 'cool' Denzel to 'nerd' Denzel...didn't flow, Joe...).....that while we highlight so many actors who have a grip of classics to their name, it's sad and often hard to admit when they show signs of falling off:
1. Tom Hanks
2. Robert De Niro
3. John Travolta
We should view actors how we view artists (or rather 'musicians')....allow a few slip-ups, but once the music dies out....so does your respect for 'em...
Ahhh..it's Sunday, flow with me baby!
(Currently watching 'Courage Under Fire'....pardon any confusing wordplay!)
Adam Berg Is My DUDE...
Granted, I was unaware of this commercial until 50 Cent's "OK, You're Right" video popped up online last week, but man oh man....as I get ready to hop in the bed, place the swag on "idle" and meet ol' girl in "Montauk," I felt it was only necessary...
Plus I'm going to see the Johnny Depp flick, "Public Enemy" tomorrow...(today).....so what better way to amp up the hype....ahhh shucks, while I'm at it:
Cups and Girls
(laugh)
Some throwback footage right here. (laugh) Still can't post it via the blog without cracking up. Remember the hype over two girls and one cup not too long ago? Come on, the two girls....one cup......feces? Ughhh...right?
(laugh) Not here to provide commentary on reactions or to share personal opinions, but I can't help but be reminded by this hilarious clip I came across during my "Go Hard Or Go Home" blogging days....(i.e. last summer)....therefore, it was only right...
Shucks, while I'm at it:
I quit, (LAUGH), g'night!
Deuces, deuces!!!
Sitting Sideways
You know the feeling when you have seen a film everyone swears is "it" but after you've peeped it after the hype and speculation, it goes flatter than a Coca-Cola on your kitchen counter in the morning?
(laugh)
Fo' real fo' real, Megan Fox...why can't I co-sign her? You would look at my recent list of "wifey dreamers" and think I'm bugging...no question:
1. Rosario Dawson
2. Sade
3. Amy (yes) Winehouse (yes, y'all...)
4. Joy Bryant
5. (Undisclosed past wifey...)
(laugh) Seriously though, I have a thing where if I catch feelings for a shorty (famous or not,) I should be able to look at their 'earlier' photos and be able to tell ol' girl was a ten back in the day....
But from current to throwback, Fox can't do it for me. Maybe I'm bugging, maybe her thumb game is more hype than factuality (you know what I mean, maaaan), maybe she's a sweetheart...the fact there's so many "maybe's" tells you I've gotta pass on ol' girl.
Now I've had those crushes on the most awkward of females here and there, but Fox...ehhhh....it's a no-go....
So I say all of that to say this...never regret or feel about about not co-signing anything which catches mainstream attention.....yada mean? (Come on, after 2 a.m. and I'm typing....ahhhh.....Twitter + Blogger has nuffin' on me! Owwwww!!!)
Classic
The Game x 50 Cent.
(laugh)
Say what you want, but out of the entire 2004 group, Game and 50 held it down the best. Sure, Fif's rhymes on top of Banks' "On Fire" or Tony Yayo's "So Seductive," or shucks....Young Buck's "Let Me In" were sick....but.....well:
No fancy sets, just the realness...(aren't you glad I'm 'back'?).....seriously though, folks dwell on the past and while I'm more focused on the future now than ever...well, shucks, who can stunt on the power and strength these two guys brought to the table when it was all said and done, right?
With success comes envy though and whether people want to acknowledge it (Go Cyrus Go, that includes you too)...50 was wrong....yerp. Granted, Game may have not wanted to take orders and go about dissing 'legends' (chea right....) but still.....when it all boils down, Curtis Jackson put Jayceon on front street by 'kicking' him out of the rap group via the radio....
(laugh)...Granted, that's not the clip of him announcing Game out of the crew, but rather just some underlying tensions which arose out of the pre-drop.....
So rather than the he said, she said....I'll just keep it simple....be easy before making career-altering decisions....(I say this reflecting upon my countless G-Unit clothing purchases....ehh.....)
(laugh)
Stop Crying
(laugh)
Wow, you know, there are so many folks who always try to look for explanations, excuses and just those good ol', "I need that inspiration....dun dun..."
(laugh)
Eh, you've heard it once, you've heard it twice...shucks, I even took it the the Tweets to 'apologize' for the off-on-off again blog postings.
(laugh)
You "need" me, baby....write? Wright? Rigggggght.
(laugh) Yes, it's true....I show peace and love (so over-used, right?) to everyone, but at the end of the day, my pen (keyboard) is the clip and my mind is the pistol..(ouch, GTA IV-inspired, huh Niko?)
See, here's the thing about me...while people 'attempt' to expose themselves via blog postings and videos, I really treat it like I'm friend-less and wifey-less and life-less..(laugh)...kidding, kidding...but rather than saying..nah, fo' get it...I'm number one, one one.....
From seeing postings by other folks saying they're "busy" and "uninspired" to write...say word?
That's why I'm just going to keep it a hundred......Go Cyrus Go aka Cy-Cy (whoa....) aka CyrusKLanghorne is likely to be spontaneous, but ohhhhh....you know what to expect from the kid....
So stop the blood clot crying, loosen up the button-ups and kick back......I'm gone (then back then gone)! (laugh)
Ahhhhhhhhhh............computer love, sounds like computer love...
