You might remember Panama a little differently as the dude who was wearing Bubble’s ass out [ll] on HBO’s ‘The Wire’.
Here is the download link to his debut project. Production from DJ Boy Wonda, DJ L-Gee, K-Dot and EDubble. This album also features Esso, Skyzoo, Sha Stimuli, Vic Damone, Serius Jones and others.
As Panama steps into the ring, he’s giving all of us a ringside seat.
I registered for eBay 10 years ago and in that time I have bought and sold a good amount of I-T’s. I don’t visit eBay too often nowadays but it still has some great auctions for vintage stuff from clothing to sneakers to toys to everything. For a time I think eBay was going to evolutionize the way we ultimately consumed goods. At the end of the day, eBay doesn’t totally supplant the brick and mortar installations, but it does supplement them.
I was cruising the eBay system over the weekend to get myself hype for the upcoming ‘Lo-End Theory event and I wanted to see what vintage ‘Lo pieces were being offered. As always there are some good quality collector pieces on the system. I’m impressed with the way that many collectors have preserved I-T’s that are more than twenty years old. This speaks to the quality of the garments and the consideration of the connoisseur.
I came across one of the vintage sweaters from my all time favorite series of PRL design. These particular items are from 1986 and this was when I first took heed to the Polo brand. I was 15 years old and you could say that this was my first kiss. Strangely, it just may have been. This series featured primary colors that were bold and colorblocked all over the items. The clothing reminded me of my favorite candies, LifeSavers. I had to have this at any cost.
What I couldn’t afford I had to steal and what I couldn’t steal I had to just covet. The obsession still continues to this day altho’ now there is a lot less stealing. I still get excited when I walk into Lord & Taylor and Bloomies. I still check the exits and imagine myself running thru the store full tilt with shirts stuffed in my jacket. To replace the anxious energy of stealing clothing I place bids on eBay. I don’t just place regular bids on eBay tho’. I use a service called AuctionSniper.com. I got put on to AuctionSniper from the homey GabeRockka over at FlawlessHustle.
Gabe was actually a dude that bought shit from me on eBay way back in the day and he connected the dots once the DP website was up and running. AuctionSniper.com is my shit now and I don’t fux with eBay without it. I used to have to be all crazy and scramble to find a computer when my auctions were winding down. Now I just plug in the highest amount that I am willing to pay for an item and AuctionSniper.com submits my bid for me 5 seconds before the close of the auction. Niiiiiiice.
For example, lets say the sweater above is currently being bid on for $10, but I know that there are other bidders in the cut spying on the I-T as well. I’ll tell AuctionSniper to place a bid for me of $50. If no other bidders step into the arena on time I will end up winning that sweater for $11. Just because I placed a bid of $50 doesn’t mean that the price automatically goes to that amount. The way eBay works is that bids are incremental and if you are the highest bidder on a $10 I-T your winning bid is just the amount to put you in the lead.
I’m not going to act like I win every auction when I use AuctionSniper.com, but the truth is that I win one way or another. If the item bids at a higher amount than I set AuctionSniper to bid for me I don’t lose anything. That just keeps me free to scope out another I-T. If I do win then AuctionSniper only charges me $.01% of the final auction price. If the item costs $20 then AuctionSniper charges me $.20cent. If you fux with eBay and you don’t have AuctionSniper you should snipe yourself right now.

You might’a caught this joint already if you fuxes with Nah and the DopeBoyz. Even OhWord had the link to this compilation posted earlier this week. Queens get the money better late than never. UnKut is the reason for THIS blog. Shouts to Jerry and Hydra Entertainment.
From Queensbridge projects up Queens Boulevard to Sutphin and the southside, Robbie even has the Rockaways on lock. If you are from Queens and you rap, and Robbie doesn’t have your tracks you might have to move to another boro. The Counterstrike compilation features some of Queens best emcees and is curated by UnKut.com and is hosted by the bouncemaster DooWop.
Killa Sha appears on tracks and earns his posthumous props that he thoroughly deserved when he was here with us. The joint with ShaLoomie and G Rap is one of my favorite songs of 2010. Screwball’s KL, CNN’s Capone and even more QB Queens flavor. I still can’t believe Robbie does his .mp3 crate digging all the way across the globe in Australia. UnKut.com is the internets foremost rap paleontologist. This mixtape plays like an underground Hip-Hop archaeological find.
Before you pick up the Consequence ‘Movies On Demand’ mixtape make sure you DL the Counterstrike compilation for all that good retrograde Queens rap shit.

Tonite is the Target 1st Saturday event at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. 1st Saturday is always filled with music, art and energy. The dance party for this evening looks like a winner. They’ve got a real deejay and she is going to focus on highlighting the women of soul and rap music.
I expect there to be a gang of sexy high heels walking around the building. Museum chicks >>> club chicks. Actually, they are all one in the same except when club chicks go to the museum they are better behaved. Bring your flask fellas because tonite will be one of THOSE nights.
In honor of Nefertiti and the other African queens that will be present at this event I am popping tags on a crisp pair of New Balance 1300s. These joints were made in England. Polo Ralph Lauren will also be in effect as you might imagine.
If you aren’t doing anything later on and you can afford the free cover charge of zer-0 dollars and zer-0 cents you should fall through the Brooklyn Museum of Art. The event begins at 5pm but the dance party doesn’t start until 9pm.
I went looking for an image of my sneakers and I came across a pic of this colorway NB1300s. I have to find these joints now. These are definitely ‘Blu Cheez’.
DirtyJerz is one of the commentors on this page that always puts his money where his mouf is [ll]. I can extra appreciate that since fam-a-lam isn’t even working right now. Everytime he sends me a package [ll] he str8 laces me. So when the homey puts in a request for some remixes we have the staff over here at DP.com get right to it. The staff of course being me.
DirtyJerz, it’s ya’ berfday. And you know we don’t give a fux…
