Santa Came To The Ghetto…

I copped this image from a racist-apologist website. Apparently anything with a Black man on it is automatically ghetto, even if he is wearing a classy tophat.

For this year Santa found my chimney again [ll]. He knows I’m the dude that has almost everything so to hook me up he has to think outside of the box. In this case that means socks.

Dirty Jerz and Chocolate Snowflake came thru with foot coverings that appeal to my heartstrings. Jerz also laced me with more items not pictured here but trust me they are official. Now I feel a kind of way that I haven’t sent my package to him yet [ll].

C.S. also blessed me with a couple of books I’ve needed.

The Anthology of Rap has been buzzing around the internets and I am already enjoying some the songs I’ve seen they have published. I always worried that some white would come around to give rap and Hip-Hop culture the ol’ National Geographic anthropologist treatment and they would inherently fux shit up since they are examining the freedom song without having the right amount of soul.

Yeah, it happened.

At least I have this Willie Mays autobiography to get me hype for the spring. I read this Hank Aaron bio last year that fuxed my head up. It appears that the Hammer and the Say Hey Kid weren’t as tight as I had hoped to believe. Aaron was angry with the Mays comparisons he had gotten all of his career, at least up until he eclipsed Willie on the all-time HR list. Willie was described as a bigot and somewhat of a clubhouse poison. Last I remember both Aaron and Mays have won the same amount of World Series. One.

Anyhoo, I hope you all had a merry Christmas with your folks. I’ll see you on the flipside.

Support The Hip-Hop Word Count…

staple crops

Several years ago I had a discussion with my homey Tahir about how you could definitively determine that rap music was in decline as an American art. We talked for hours about the use of language as a socializing culture tool and the complexity of the spoken word in music. I took those discussions and framed them into weblog drops. Tahir took those discussions and developed the Hip-Hop Word Count. Think of the HHWC as a sort of rap music Wikipedia containing all kinds of cross-referenced information on rap songs from 1979 to the present.

Tahir needs our support to help him complete this project. If I can be big enough to allow him to take full credit for this project I figure you can be big enough to pitch in a $5 spot to move this endeavor forward. My dad always told me that if I ever had a good idea to make sure that I had a second one and then a third one. The Hip-Hop Word Count is a good idea. Let’s see this thing thru.

George Bush was disgusted by Kanye West’s remarks during the Hurricane Katrina telethon that “He doesn’t care about Black people”.

Is G Dubbz also disgusted by the fact that Black people were hunted and killed in New Orleans during the devastating hurricane?

Umm, not so much.
