Back home at 6am
I should knuckle down and drop my recap of the Asher Roth release party.
I need to take a nap though.
Sleep is the cousin of death, but naps are the cousin once removed that you can stick your tongue in they mouth.
We’ll talk soon…
100.

I had to re-purpose the headline from my peoples over at WWIB just to be clear that I live a real virtual life on these internets. When I am not at my lab setup early in the a.m. posting drops for the upcoming morning and afternoon I am doing shit like assembling content and important shit like seeing my lady.
Between both my day job schedule and the overtime assignments I just picked up along with my internets events it seems like I haven’t seen my lady in a month of Sundays. I need to be careful that I keep her heart in mind. It may seem like I am a single man to all the ladies that see me in these streets and lust for me…
*crickets*
But at the end of the day I am just a one woman man.
So I called Chocolate Snowflake up and asked her if we could go out on a date. C.S. was still a bit vexed with me that I blew her off the previous day. I knew exactly how I could get a little wiggle room back into her good graces. I told her we would take a drive to Coney Island. Chicks dig the sea breezes blowing through their locks. Some smooth shit on the radio would help my cause.

Before Chocolate Snowflake came down from her apartment look who walks past me on Eastern Parkway? Fuck Casey Gane-McCalla! This fishstick wants to battle me on the internets. I wonder what, if anything, I have to gain from fuxing with CASEY GANE? [ll]. His ‘White Girls‘ video was the shit back on BET Uncut. As a matter of fact I think his video is what got that show canceled.
Casey is just another dude in a long string of real world PU~ pseudo-celebrities trying to come up on the internets. Thankfully for him my lady came down just in time before I would have had to knock Casey’s iced caramel macchiato Starbucks on the ground.
Just call me the “coffee smacker”.
Vanilla iced latte is not hardbody.
Fuck the shit you be talking Casey!
Talking about shit…
I swear don’t ever let me be in the position to pass legislation in this town. Black folks will not be allowed to own pets. Not even a motherfucking parakeet out this bitch.
I know that was Black people that left that dukeese.
How do I know?
Trust me I know this shit.
All the white I fux with in this neighborhood do dumb white shit like ordering specially made plastic bags from the pet supply store to pick up the dukeese. It’s Black folks who have the misappropriated sense of privilege on Eastern Parkway. Okay, and its also the occasional Hasid that will run a motherfucker over, but if its someone leaving dog poop on the sidewalk that is the Blacks.
Enough of my Blacks with dogs rant. Chocolate Snowflake and I love dogs, especially hot dogs.
We took a drive to Coney Island to enjoy some of that Nathan’s Famous from the OG spot where the whole thing popped off from 1000 years ago.
We ate our shit in the brick ass cold just like the Puerto Rican families that were holding down the outdoor seating mob deep. Shouts to all the Puerto Ricans that fux with DP dot com.
Fuck it, shouts to all the Mexicans in general.
I keeps it 100 at Nathan’s Famous by ordering the cheese sauce on my fries.
In all honesty, Nathan’s Famous cheese sauce >>> Big Mac sauce.
And that is the truth, Ruth.
The only thing bad about that cheese sauce is the gaseous aftermath.
I wouldn’t wish that shit on my worst enemy either. That’s prA’li what the CIA be using on fools in Guantanamo.
It’s the type of shit that you should only share with the person that loves you the most.
In my case that would be my lady, Chocolate Snowflake.
D’Angelo featuring AZ – ‘Lady’ (Preemo remix)
CHAUNCEY BILLUPS is tragically underrated. How steady and clutch had he been for the Pistons? How many teams has dude played for in the Association? I’m not saying that Denver will outlast Los Angeles in the Conference championship but if there is anyone that can add the hardbody center to CARMELO’s marshmallow personality it is BILLUPS. He is even more hardbody than KENYON MARTIN. Print that last line.
I was hoping the Rockets would have been the #2 seed in the West mainly because KENNY from Kenny’s Kitchen would have hooked the kid up with at least an extra chicken wing with my pork fried rice. RON ARTEST deserves some kind of award for the game he played this season in Houston. TRACEY McGRADY a/k/a Cupcake is done for the year and the Rockets are a better team without him. Rockets see L.A. in the second round though. No way in hell the league will let ARTEST manhandle Showbee BRYANT. Print that.
I need to start showing LeBRON some love [ll]. His coronation from the Association made me feel a kind of way, but who would know better than the dudes that made TIM DONAGHY a household name? What can I say about LeBreezy that hasn’t been said? And even if these contests were rigged it wasn’t TIM DONAGHY scoring baskets for LeBRON. If the Association were just going to gift the Cavaliers the LARRY O’BRIEN trophy there would be no reason for the Playoffs now would there? The Cavs do come out of the East this year though. Print that.
DERRICK ROSE is clearly the rookie of the year. Will Chicago take down the champs in the 1st round though? Chicago has been on a pretty mighty run when you consider P-City winning the DP.com NCAA pool, Obama being elected prexy, OPRAH on Twitter and KanYe getting his own sneakers with Nike and Louis Vuitton. I think that ruined all the good luck that the Bulls could used to get into the second round. Boston runs the Bulls out in six. Print that.

A big shout goes out to Run DMC for being elected into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame. Hip-Hop is really bigger than rock music though. The best Hip-Hop deejays spin funk, soul, jazz, rock and even classical music. Anything that will make you nod your head to the beat is fair game. R.I.P. Jason Mizell.
Here’s something for you to do at home if this is a lazy basketball watching Sunday for you. I’ve put together another one of my ridiculously truthful, but infamously totally unscientific bar graphs which charts the greatest rap music duos of all time. Actually, we have only graphed the top 5 so all of you Whodini and Nice & Smooth stans might be a bit butthurt.
The determining factors were the influence on the rap genre itself while also considering the lyrical content of the artists and their overall catalog. The biggest point of contention has been the placement of Redman and Method Man ahead of OutKast AND A Tribe Called Quest. What most complainants have been unable to register is that Redman has given birth to the styles of Grammy winning rapper Ludacris and the rapper in every whites top 5 – Eminem.
The point I’m stressing here is that Redman and Method Man may not have a catalog as a duo with the same sales numbers as some of the other artists in the top 5 but when you consider their overall body of work you are looking at two of the most important and prolific artists of all time with the rap music genre.
