GAME REBELLION IS THE FUTURE…
Thursday, July 5th, 2007cRap Music Fantasy League – Q3
Wednesday, July 4th, 2007
A monster shout goes out to El Gringo Colombiano for blessing DP Dot Com with his computer wizardry for the cRap Music Fantasy League. This shit is going down so icy cold for this quarter. We will drop bi-weekly updates on the CMFL as well features on some of the label owners who sport websites themselves and we will even highlight some of the label owners who just patrol the internets searching for that good-good Hip-Hop.
Let’s get started first by calling out all the labels in this rounds competition…
If you don’t see your label’s name then that means you didn’t make the cut for this round. A lot of you went over the allowed limit of rappers because you didn’t follow the submission rules that stated only (8) artists per roster (i.e. The Roots, Wu-Tang, UGK and Shop Boyz are all GROUPS of artists and not a single artist). Some of you didn’t respond to the confirmation e-mail in time and some of you weren’t even sure just what the hell was going on.
To all of you folks that didn’t make it in this round I ask you to stay locked in on the DP Dot Com cRap Music Fantasy League drops so that you don’t miss the Q4 registration period.
For all of you labels that did make the cut some of you have jumped out to an early lead if you have T.I. and KELLY ROWLAND on your rosters. T.I. scored 100pts with the release of his studio album ‘T.I. vs. TIP’ and BeYONCE’s loyal wig brusher racked up a nice little 25pts for her cover story on King Magazine. But don’t be dismayed, there is still a lot of cRap Music Fantasy League to be played. Another update drops this weekend.
Shouts also go out to loyal DP Dot Com supporter LM for sponsoring the prize pack.
DP Dot Com Revisits Total Recall…
Saturday, June 30th, 2007
I fucks with a bunch of SCHWARZENEGGER movies because them joints is straight fire. ‘Total Recall’ was a blast for me because I dig the future dystopian metropolis settings on Earth and Mars. Flicks like this offer us a real taste of the future where dictator governors will regulate the air we breathe. Not even on another planet though. Right here on Earth oxygen will be the new platinum standard. The other night I was watching the movie again on TBS and something just dawned on me…
What if the whole story was really Quaid’s dream at the recall office. Like, what if his dream was to go crazy and then go to Mars and wild the fuck out? I don’t see why Quaid ever had to be in anything other than a dream state for the whole fucking mindtrip. Although, going back to his scandalous wife, played by a young, hot SHARON STONE would have sucked balls. Like, I’ve never been to Mars, but they made that shit look dope as fuck. It was like Vegas on space crack.
Then I thought about an alien race that might have visited Earth already and then broke out. Since GOD is all powerful I know that humankind isn’t even like the best species on GOD’s resume. I mean, it’s like we need a partner to procreate. That’s not really efficient. There’s prah’lee a species that can multiply itself with a thought. Humankind is prah’lee the beta version for universal species. Yeah, movies like ‘Total Recall’ make me wonder sometimes and I didn’t even have to get altered to enjoy it either.
I’m mailing an unopened VC-arrah tape to anyone who wants it courtesy of DP Dot Com Sponsor AMADEO SOGNI. The four-breasted lady is not included.
Rebel Music On The Planet Of Brooklyn…
Saturday, June 30th, 2007
Celebrate Indepence Day by supporting independent music and the movement of rebellion. Kill your Black Entertainment television.
For a solid week the planet of Brooklyn will be home to some of the most progressive, trendsetting musicians you can hear right now. Don’t get it twisted, the Afro Punk movement is Hip-Hop. More Hip-Hop than your T.V. sets or your radio since all that shit is programmed by the Tall Israelis anyhoo.
The Afro Punk Film and Music Festival is your chance to catch my favorite band GAME Rebellion as well as some other tight groups do their thing with a swing and swagger that only comes from cooking a gumbo filled with Public Enemy, The Clash, Bad Brains, Big Daddy Kane and FishBone to name a few, but it ain’t just music either party people. Afro Punk is a lifestyle bitches! Take a look at all the events that are popping off this week.

BROOKLYN STAND UP!
CAPTAIN BILLY SUNDAY’s PIRATE RADIO PODCAST
Friday, June 29th, 2007
It’s been minute since we’ve just caught a groove together and rode out. When I heard that Public Enemy gave a tribute to the Godfather on the Negro Nonsense Network it almost made me sad I didn’t catch the performance. Giving props to the Godfather is always in order.
When you think of backing bands of the highest degree the Roots comes to mind because of their talent and their ability to play any rap artist’s hit song. But who created the music that your favorite rapper sampled from? Who was that band that made the original breakbeat that your favorite deejay cut to death in order to make your ass move?
BOBBY BYRD, FRED WESLEY, MACEO PARKER, BOOTSY COLLINS and his sister LYNN COLLINS were part of the world’s greatest backing band ever.
Ladies and gentlemen…
